Reborn in 1977, starting with severing ties with family.

Jiang Sen sincerely admired Feng Chao's silver tongue.

He talked nonsense on the train, fooling so many female educated youths to fawn over him.

Even when they're giving self-criticisms, they ramble on and on without repeating themselves.

They started by acknowledging their mistakes, then moved on to what to do next, and shouted slogans that were incredibly loud. Impressive!

As Liu Hongzhi listened, his expression changed repeatedly, and his legs ached from standing. Finally, Feng Chao finished.

Finally, he concluded with, "From now on, please watch my performance, class monitor and comrades."

Sui Zhongliang nodded and looked at Liu Hongzhi.

Liu Hongzhi spoke up: "I was wrong..."

Then it was gone.

Sui Zhongliang was taken aback. "What's wrong with it?"

Liu Hongzhi paused for a while before speaking again, “My mistake was misunderstanding Feng Zhiqing, and I shouldn’t have started by swearing, let alone hitting her. If I encounter a similar situation again, I will definitely report it to the squad leader immediately and will never try to resolve it myself or escalate the conflict…”

And then it was gone.

Seeing that he lacked Feng Chao's eloquence, Sui Zhongliang could not force him and could only nod.

"Today's matter was urgent, so we'll leave it at that and don't require a written self-criticism. I hope we can work together more effectively in the future and prevent similar situations from happening again. Okay, go and rest!"

Jiang Sen didn't understand why Sui Zhongliang had kept him around until the two left.

After the two of them entered the tent, Sui Zhongliang said to Jiang Sen, "You did a good job today!"

Jiang Sen smiled but didn't say anything.

"Have you ever fired a gun before?"

It turns out he had the same problem as Wang Haiyang.

Jiang Sen brought up the excuse of street militia training again.

Sui Zhongliang said, "To be so proficient in just a few days, you seem to have some talent. Not bad! From now on, when you stay alone in the camp, I can leave you a gun for self-defense."

The surprise came so fast that Jiang Sen didn't even have time to react.

However, he quickly realized a problem.

Why would you give him a gun?

He wasn't a veteran; educated youth had no right to carry guns.

Is it about trusting yourself or testing yourself?

Jiang Sen dared not gamble, but he could avoid it.

“No need!” Jiang Sen said. “The wolf pack incident was an unexpected situation and wouldn’t happen normally.”

Da Liu chuckled, "If we encounter a bear again, will we still run off to find us?"

Jiang Sen felt that this situation was quite helpless.

If you really encounter a bear again, having a gun definitely increases your chances of winning.

Even if you can't kill them, you can scare them away.

But he still felt it wouldn't work.

"Squad leader, let's not talk about this anymore. Just treat it as a joke. It's just that you run a little faster!"

Sui Zhongliang laughed and stopped pressuring, "Alright, let's not talk about it anymore, go and rest!"

Back in the tent, everyone else was already asleep, and even Wang Haiyang was snoring softly.

We worked for a day and a night. Although we had rested for a day, we were still working in the wind and snow. Everyone was exhausted, and then we were attacked by a pack of wolves. We fell asleep almost as soon as our heads hit the pillow.

Jiang Sen took off his coat, crawled into the cold bed, curled up, and closed his eyes.

He felt as if he had just fallen asleep when someone pushed him awake.

Wang Haiyang sat on top of the crowd putting on his shoes. "It's our turn!" he said.

It was pitch black outside, but the fire in the hearth in front of the wooden house had not gone out, and fires had been lit at the four corners of the fence.

Jiang Sen and one of the educated youths were in front.

Wang Haiyang and another person were behind.

Da Liu came out and replaced Sui Zhongliang to check the condition of the several bonfires.

I don't know when, but snowflakes started falling from the sky again, big flakes, and in no time, the whole world turned white.

Even the night seemed less dark, with shadows and indistinct shapes.

Da Liu lifted the lid of the pot, and Jiang Sen smelled the aroma of wild vegetable porridge.

A bowl of this at night will warm you up.

“Come over here and have a bite while you take your shift,” he called out.

Jiang Sen sent the other one ahead while he stayed behind to continue his sentry duty.

He took out a cigarette, lit it, took a puff, and exhaled the white smoke from his mouth.

The crisp, cool air entering my lungs instantly cleared my somewhat foggy mind.

He went over what had happened before.

The incident happened so suddenly that he never considered whether it might reveal something that was inconsistent with his current age and personality.

After all, human life is of paramount importance; only by living can we continue with what follows.

All he's thinking about now is how long he can keep the fact that he can fire a gun a secret.

After all, it can't withstand scrutiny.

Street militia marches have indeed taken place; they were organized militia exercises conducted jointly with the military.

Jiang Sen had nothing to do with it.

do not care!

Jiang Sen thought, whatever!

Since it's already been exposed, even if they investigate and can't find my records, I can just say I'm familiar with the neighborhood committee director, didn't use my quota, and only loitered around for a few days, and that will cover it up.

I just don't know if we can get through today's wolf attack.

He smoked the cigarette until it was almost burning his fingers before throwing it on the ground and grinding it a few times.

I looked up at the woods; the snow was covered with messy footprints left by a pack of wolves.

There were several wolf carcasses and bloodstains outside the fence.

Jiang Sen was horrified when he saw the wolf's carcass.

He suddenly realized something: this time, the wolves neither took the carcass away nor divided it up to eat.

"Squad leader!" Jiang Sen called out as he turned around.

Da Liu rushed over, "Something's wrong?"

"Look!" Jiang Sen pointed to the wolf carcasses. "They actually left the bodies behind! When the captain went to pick us up, he also encountered a pack of wolves. We killed one wolf, and it was eaten by the pack. But now they didn't eat it or take it with them; they left it all behind!"

Actually, Jiang Sen didn't need to explain; Liu already understood.

They have lived in the Greater Khingan Mountains for many years and know the characteristics of wolf packs better than anyone else.

"You keep watch, I'm going to find the squad leader!"

Da Liu strode back.

He hadn't run two steps when he heard a scream from behind, followed by gunshots!

"Damn it!" Da Liu exclaimed, shouting, "Everyone, the wolves are coming!"

There was a sudden commotion inside the tent, and many people ran out wearing coats.

Jiang Sen also raised his gun and aimed it at the woods ahead.

The group of men with guns split into two groups: one rushed to Jiang Sen's side, while the other ran away.

just now.

Wang Haiyang and another educated youth also discovered the wolf's carcass.

The two men talked while staring at the wolf's carcass.

I don't know who mentioned it first, but although wolf meat is a bit sour, it's still meat, and if heavy snow blocks the mountains, it can be considered food.

Without notifying anyone else, Wang Haiyang stood guard with his gun at the ready, while another person opened the door, intending to drag the wolf carcass back.

Just as he cautiously approached the wolf carcass, bent down to grab its leg and try to turn back, several wolves suddenly rushed out of the woods.

One of them opened its mouth wide and bit the man's leg, causing a scream to pierce the air.

Wang Haiyang was startled and fired his gun.

They ran out of bullets, only managing to wound two wolves, but they couldn't reload. The other wolves rushed in in the blink of an eye.

Wang Haiyang could only use his gun like a stick, desperately trying to defend himself.

What enraged him was that the bitten educated youth was dragged into the forest by two wolves, leaving behind a glaring trail of blood.

"Ah!" He widened his eyes and frantically waved his spear.

But he could only watch helplessly as the wolves kept charging in.

Three or four wolves were left to attack Wang Haiyang, while the other wolves rushed inside.

A gunshot rang out, and Da Liu arrived, followed by another gunshot.

Then, the others arrived, and bursts of gunfire rang out again. Wang Haiyang finally escaped from the clutches of the wolves and retreated.

But his eyes were bloodshot. He loaded the bullets and fired at the wolf pack again.

That man, who didn't even know his own name, was dragged away by the wolf!

Blame him!

They thought that opening the door briefly and dragging the wolf carcass back would be fine.

If he had stopped it, this wouldn't have happened!

Blame him!
