The hunter's leisurely life begins with marrying a female educated youth.

The pangolin was drilling a well when Zhang Yun left the tea mountain with two red jackals.

The next stop is Laoshiqiao Village.

“Building a house requires a lot of stone, and only Laoshiqiao Village can provide it.”

Zhang Yun sat on the deer's back and spoke calmly.

The old stone bridge village is surrounded by stone mountains. Even the farmland, if you dig down two meters, is just stone.

This unique topography has made Laoshiqiao Village a training ground for stonemasons since ancient times, and the village has a large amount of stone material.

Coincidentally, Laoshiqiao Village was also one of the ten production brigades of Qushui Commune.

Zhang Yun wanted to build a house, so of course he had to prepare all the materials in advance.

About half an hour later, Zhang Yun finally arrived at Laoshiqiao Village.

Looking around, one sees stone mountains everywhere, and the ground is also carved from stone, making this place seem unique.

Bamboo groves grow everywhere in the rocky mountains, so the rocks and bamboo groves are interspersed, and you can find beautiful rock and bamboo paintings from any angle.

Looking into the distance, the residential area of ​​the old stone bridge can be seen in and out of sight.

After walking another mile, we finally arrived at the residential area of ​​the old stone bridge.

The atmosphere in the whole village was very abnormal.

A dark green jeep was parked in the village, and it seemed as if the whole village had come out and gathered around the jeep, creating a very solemn atmosphere.

Zhang Yun rode a roe deer, accompanied by two red jackals, and surprisingly, he did not cause a sensation along the way.

As he got closer, Zhang Yun's extraordinary perception finally allowed him to hear the murmurs of many people, and he then understood what was going on.

It turned out that in the morning, a villager from Laoshiqiao Village went to Sanshan to dig sweet potatoes and unexpectedly encountered a "fugitive" who was stealing sweet potatoes. The villager then got into a conflict with the fugitive, who was carrying a gun and shot and injured the villager.

The villager has now been taken to the People's Hospital.

When the shooting occurred, Laoshiqiao Village naturally called the police, and then the Qushui Commune police station was dispatched. This jeep was driven over by the police officers.

While Zhang Yun was still analyzing the cause and process of the whole incident, a voice suddenly rang out in surprise.

"Zhang Yun, it's you!"

Upon hearing the voice, Zhang Yun knew without even turning his head that it was Zhang Li'an, the militia captain.

"Captain Zhang, it's amazing to see you again."

Zhang Yun dismounted from the roe deer's back, looked at Zhang Li'an's face, and said with some surprise.

The two had just met at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, but unexpectedly, they met again in Laoshiqiao Village just a few hours later.

In an instant, Zhang Yun realized something.

"Zhang Yun, what brings you to Laoshiqiao Village?"

Zhang Li'an asked the question with great curiosity.

"I need to build a new house and I need to buy some stone, so here I am."

Zhang Yun told the truth.

Zhang Li'an nodded slightly, finally understanding why Zhang Yun had come.

At this moment, Zhang Yun looked at the surrounding villagers and immediately asked, "Captain Zhang, what happened? Why are all the villagers from Laoshiqiao Village out? Even your militia company has been mobilized? And two police officers have come too."

In the morning, Zhang Li'an ran into Zhang Yun at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, but did not mention the militia killings.

Things are different now. The police have arrived, and they've also called in the militia. They're even going to rally the villagers to surround the mountain and hunt down the escaped militiaman.

Now that the militia's killings have been made public, Zhang Li'an no longer needs to worry and can tell Zhang Yun the truth.

“Ma Zhongguo from our militia company shot and killed someone because of family matters. Unexpectedly, he actually fled to Laoshiqiao Village and even shot and injured people in the village.”

“The police station called over our militia company and ordered us to defend the area. They also brought out the villagers to set up outposts along the mountain. The goal was to surround Ma Zhongguo in the mountains and prevent him from escaping to other places.”

After listening, Zhang Yun understood the situation.

This finally matches up with my memories from my previous life; it really was about this militia.

"Captain Zhang, perhaps I can help."

Zhang Yun said calmly.

"Help? How can you help? Ma Zhongguo has a gun, you must be joking."

“If you really want to help, then go with the villagers and stake out the area at the foot of the mountain. Once you spot Ma Zhongguo’s movements, report it to the nearby militia who are providing assistance.”

Zhang Li'an refused outright.

Zhang Yun understood why Zhang Li'an refused; he was worried that if Zhang Yun encountered Ma Zhongguo, he would be shot dead.

“Captain Zhang, take a look at these two red jackals next to me. They have a very keen sense of smell. If they were to search for someone in the mountains, it would be much easier for them than for us humans.”

Zhang Yun gave a key reminder.

Red jackals not only have an excellent sense of smell, but they are also very intelligent. They rank first in intelligence among jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards. In these mountains, they are the most powerful creatures. They will directly attack and kill any weak animals, and immediately run away when they encounter fierce beasts.

Zhang Li'an then stared intently at the two red jackals and exclaimed in surprise, "They really are red jackals! Zhang Yun, you actually tamed two red jackals!"

This made Zhang Li'an think more highly of Zhang Yun and he even felt a bit of admiration for him.

"Captain Zhang, take me to the shooting scene. I want the two red jackals to smell the scent; maybe they can find Ma Zhongguo's hiding place directly."

Zhang Yun immediately said.

Zhang Li'an originally thought that Zhang Yun was just bringing two Shiba Inu dogs, but he didn't expect that they were two red jackals. He immediately believed Zhang Yun's words.

Indeed, red jackals have extremely developed hearing and sense of smell, even more so than trained police dogs. They can detect any unusual noises in the mountains and forests.

With the help of the Red Jackal, Zhang Li'an believed that it was possible to find Ma Zhongguo before nightfall.

Because Ma Zhongguo has a gun, we can't let him escape any longer; that would be irresponsible towards the safety of the people.

Zhang Li'an immediately agreed: "Come on, let's go see Director Pan."

Soon, Zhang Li'an brought Zhang Yun to two men in police uniforms and immediately introduced Zhang Yun's situation.

"Director Pan, this is Zhang Yun. He comes from Jiuwan Village. I've worked with him before; he's an extremely skilled hunter."

"It just so happens that he came to Laoshiqiao Village on business today and brought two red jackals with him."

“These red jackals have an extremely keen sense of hearing and smell. If we had two red jackals to help us search, we could find Ma Zhongguo’s hiding place very quickly.”

"Therefore, I request Director Pan's approval to allow Comrade Zhang Yun to join our search team."

Pan Wenyong, in his fifties, has a square face covered with many wrinkles, making him look very weathered.

But at this moment, when Pan Wenyong heard Zhang Li'an's recommendation, he looked at Zhang Yun seriously, then glanced at the two red jackals, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Comrade Zhang Yun, do you realize that going into the mountains is dangerous at any time? Ma Zhongguo still has a gun, and your life is in danger too. Have you thought this through?"

Pan Wenyong did not immediately agree, but calmly asked a question.

"Please rest assured, Director, I have thought all of this through."

"If the station chief is worried, I can write a statement here that if anything happens to me, the police station will not be held responsible."

Zhang Yun replied with a smile, very confident.

Pan Wenyong's only concern was that something might happen to Zhang Yun in the mountains, and he was afraid that Zhang Yun's family would cause trouble in the commune.

Since Zhang Yun himself has said so, if Pan Wenyong hesitates any longer, he will appear cowardly and overly cautious.

"No need for a written agreement. Since you know it's dangerous in the mountains, I trust you won't do anything reckless."

"How about this, Captain Zhang Li'an will take two militiamen and go into the mountains with Zhang Yun?"

Pan Wenyong said calmly.

Zhang Li'an thought about it and realized that this was indeed a good idea. All three militiamen had guns, and if they found Ma Zhongguo, they could guarantee Zhang Yun's safety.

"Okay, I'll do as Director Pan says."

Zhang Li'an immediately straightened his posture and said firmly.

Pan Wenyong smiled faintly: "If we successfully capture Ma Zhongguo this time, Zhang Li'an, you will have made a great contribution. You can write an application to join the police station, and I will approve your entry."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Li'an became excited and said gratefully, "Please rest assured, Chief, I will definitely be able to catch Ma Zhongguo."
