Reborn in 1963: I Hunted and Stockpiled Meat During a Famine

As the last person fell, Qin Qiming appeared, walked into the courtyard, and stopped beside the second-in-command's corpse.

Qin Qiming noticed the gun and grenade that had fallen from the second-in-command's arms and was surprised.

He didn't use his gun after that, but only took a grenade.

Then they discovered that the second-in-command had something else in his arms.

He pulled out a stack of RMB.

My estimate is around one thousand.

Qin Qiming grinned: "Goodness, you know how to be respectful to your ancestors!"

He quickly put the money away.

The next moment, footsteps could be heard outside.

"Qiming, Qiming! How are you?!"

He Changzhao sensed something was wrong the moment Qin Qiming fired the first shot.

They hurriedly went up the mountain with the village chief.

On their way there, they kept hearing gunshots.

When they arrived, they found corpses everywhere on the ground, with no signs of a struggle.

The location where the bodies fell indicates that the victims didn't even seek cover, suggesting it was a one-way massacre.

"They were all headshots!" He Changzhao stared in disbelief, turning to look at the village chief. "How could he hit the head with every shot?"

Then, as you walk further in, the bodies in the courtyard are also found with a single shot to the head.

Everyone was a little stunned.

"That marksmanship is terrifying! And it's pitch black at night! Besides, judging from where the bullets hit, Comrade Qiming has been hiding in that tree the whole time; he's been concealing himself..."

He Changzhao felt a chill run down his spine as he said this.

"How did he do that? He treated people like wild animals. He drove them away, lured them in, and used the dim light in the room to draw everyone's attention to the room, making everyone think he was inside..."

The village chief also lowered his voice and sighed, "Heaven has blessed us with good fortune; don't be jealous."

He Changzhao nodded in agreement: "Indeed, it's all about talent."

After saying that, he called out into the courtyard, "Qiming, Qiming, are you alright?"

Suddenly, the sound of a door opening rang out.

A figure emerged from the doorway.

"Qiming! Are you alright? Did you fire the shot just now?" The village chief rushed forward anxiously.

Qin Qiming nodded.

He decided not to hide it, because hiding it would only bring more trouble.

Just follow the conventional explanation of hunting.

Even if they have doubts, they will only suspect that a master has guided him.

"They tried to attack my family and set my house on fire. I fired in self-defense, and these people deserved to die! However, let's not make this public yet, just praise them internally."

He Changzhao cleared his throat. "You're having a good time, kid. We can talk about praise later. Do you have a clue why these people are targeting you?"

Qin Qiming looked down at the corpse, then shook his head: "I don't know."

Xiao Ma, standing nearby, analyzed, "Chief, I suspect these people are mostly Gao Liang's cronies. We can confirm the body is Zhao Youhe, but the others are harder to say; we need to investigate further. I have a feeling that Comrade Qiming might have inadvertently touched a nerve, making them their target..."

He Changzhao thought for a moment and nodded.

After hearing these words, Qin Qiming realized what they meant and recounted how he had killed Gao Liang and his two companions in the old forest to save the educated youth.

He Changzhao and the others gasped in shock.

"Good lad... how did you get such skills? Who leaked this information? How did it lead to someone seeking revenge?"

The village chief frowned: "Not many people know about this, including me, my son Qin Kang, and the educated youth who were rescued!"

He Changzhao's face darkened, and he slowly raised his head, looking at Qin Qiming with a serious expression.

"Qiming, you have to keep this to yourself. Hold off on your actions for now and continue with your work as usual. If anything happens, I'll have the village chief talk to you. You'd better be extra careful during this time."

"Row."

After the people left, Qin Qiming released Liu Xiuqin and the others.

Min was afraid of frightening the children, so she quickly told them to close their eyes and led them upstairs to comfort them.

Liu Xiuqin nervously slapped Qin Qiming, and after confirming that her son was not injured, she angrily slapped him repeatedly.

Why were you so impulsive? Why were you trying to be a hero?

Qin Qiming explained with a wry smile, "I'm fine. It's impossible to go hunting in the mountains without encountering something like this all the time."

Liu Xiuqin fell silent after hearing this, and her nose tingled with emotion.

Although their lives had improved, it was as if she was living with her son's life hanging by a thread, and she couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

"Mom, don't worry. I already talked to Zhuzi at noon and asked him to go to the bicycle factory in the city to check things out. We'll set up a factory too and stop hunting."

"Really?"

"real!"

After offering a few words of comfort, Qin Qiming went back inside to comfort Min.

As for Liu Zhu, he was talking to his father about going to the city to find out where to go.

"Dad, Mom, my cousin Qiming told me that he wants me to find a job at a bicycle factory in the county to test the waters, maybe we can open a factory in the future!"

Zhu Zi's mother swallowed hard. "Qi Ming has already built a new house. Isn't this all for nothing?"

"Mom, Qiming isn't leaving yet."

Liu Qingsong took a puff of his pipe and nodded silently. "Hunting is dangerous. It's a good thing to be able to develop in the city."

Zhu Zi's mother frowned. "It's a good thing, but Zhu Zi, Niu Xiu is such a beautiful girl, she can't wait for you forever, can she?"

“If she’s willing to wait, tell her that I will definitely marry her in the future. If she’s not willing to wait, tell her that I can’t marry her right now and I have to go to the county town to make a living.”

Zhu Zi's mother looked reluctant: "Can't you get married first before you leave? You're almost eighteen."

"What kind of situation would that be? Marrying her and then leaving her to live alone in an empty room?"

Zhu Zi's mother was troubled again. "Yes, this is really difficult."

"Okay, I'll take some eggs to tell Xiuxiu, so she won't feel uncomfortable."

"Well, then talk to her nicely and don't make her angry."

"okay!"

Liu Zhu picked up the eggs and headed towards the Niu family's house.

Old Man Niu went out and didn't return, so Liu Zhu took the opportunity to tell Niu Xiu that he was about to go to the county town.

Niu Xiu was a woman of her own mind. Upon hearing this, she immediately declared, "I'll wait for you, no matter how long it takes!"

Liu Zhu felt a warmth in his heart and hugged her tightly. Just as he was about to kiss her, he heard footsteps coming from outside the courtyard.

The two quickly let go, looking slightly flustered.

"Is it Uncle Niu who's back?" Liu Zhu asked softly.

"Um... I'll go to the kitchen to boil some water. You guys keep chatting." Niu Xiu made an excuse and left in a hurry.

As soon as Uncle Niu entered the door, he saw this scene and chuckled to himself. Liu Zhu really knew how to pick his time; as soon as he was gone, he ran to Niu Xiu's room.

Luckily he kept a close eye on it, otherwise Liu Zhu would have uprooted the cabbage!

He shook his head and sighed: "A daughter is like a tree that cannot be kept at home; keeping her too long only brings sorrow."

Liu Zhu glanced at Niu Xiu with reluctance, then said, "I'm leaving now."
