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

Attaching bayonets is a good thing; it can inflict effective damage on wild animals.

Qin Qiming excitedly practiced a few assassination moves, finding them quite easy to execute.

He put away the bayonet and continued searching, only to find another shocking item in Fang's arms.

It's a Japanese military topographical map!

This is both irrefutable evidence of the crimes committed by the Japanese invaders and a high-precision military map.

Historically, many soldiers have sacrificed their lives in vain due to the lack of accurate military topographic maps.

This high-precision map meticulously marks the terrain in the mountains, and more importantly, Qin Qiming discovered an astonishing secret within it!

arsenal!

It was a military facility that was secretly built in preparation for the northward march!

Qin Qiming stared in astonishment at the rifle in his hand, thinking that these people must have gotten the weapon from the Japanese.

He knew nothing about the military facility and couldn't understand the Japanese markings on it.

But without a doubt, this place is definitely related to the Japanese.

Qin Qiming felt that he should visit this place in person.

However, it's too far away, and it's getting dark, so we can't go for the time being.

He decided to put the map away and wait for another opportunity to go.

Qin Qiming believed that Fang would not tell anyone about such a confidential place.

The fact that no one else had a gun suggests that this must be Fang's secret hideout, but it likely only contained light weapons and ammunition.

As for the high-resolution image, it's very likely that he obtained the gun from Fang.

Qin Qiming planned to investigate the military facility to see if he could find any useful items.

Even if you don't have any, you can get a few more grenades. Next time you encounter a bear, just blow it up with grenades!

After the battlefield was cleared, Qin Qiming had a good haul: five bags of grain, some furs, bullets, bayonets, and various tools.

It was getting late when he arrived home with a pile of things. Liu Xiuqin heard the door open, came out, and asked in surprise, "Qiming, did you go to town to buy things?"

Qin Qiming waved his hand to interrupt: "The spoils that He Suo distributed to us all belonged to the bandits. The bandits are dead, and He Suo instructed me to secretly take them back."

As Qin Qiming spoke, he took out cloth coupons, meat coupons, and grain coupons directly from his pocket and handed them to Liu Xiuqin.

Liu Xiuqin's eyes widened: "This is definitely going to cause trouble!"

Qin Qiming laughed and said, "If you keep quiet, everything will be fine. But once you speak out, both He Suo and I will suffer. You choose: either report us to the commune, or help me unload the goods now."

Liu Xiuqin was stunned, and hurriedly untied the grain bag.

The fine grains piled up like a small mountain in front of her made Liu Xiuqin's hands tremble.

Just as she was in shock, Qin Qiming took out more money: "By the way, take this money as pocket money. It all came from those bandits."

Liu Xiuqin froze for a moment, grabbed the money, looked around, and then lowered her voice to angrily rebuke: "Do you want to die? How can you even show this kind of thing!"

She nervously hid the money as she spoke.

Then he warned in a low voice, "I'm telling you, this matter must be kept a secret. You can't even tell Huimin. This is for protection, understand?"

Qin Qiming nodded, and Liu Xiuqin then smiled slightly: "Our son has made something of himself..."

Not long after, someone came over and asked Qin Qiming to help him catch a pheasant.

That person was also an educated youth sent to the countryside, assigned to a village with mixed surnames, and stayed at Zhang Feng's house.

Zhang Feng shared a room with her and even set up an extra bed for her.

Her name is Wang Tiantian. She is eighteen years old, petite, fair-skinned, and a little stingy.

Wang Tiantian wanted to eat pheasant, so she went to Qin Qiming and offered to pay him two yuan to catch one.

She thinks it's absurd to expect Qin Qiming to catch pheasants for her for just two yuan.

Qin Qiming chuckled and pushed Wang Tiantian's money away, saying, "I'm busy!"

Wang Tiantian frowned: "Is it because you think the money isn't enough?"

Qin Qiming said unhappily, "In spring, pheasants start laying eggs, I won't catch them!"

After saying that, Qin Qiming closed the door.

Wang Tiantian looked unhappy.

Half a month has passed at Zhang Feng's house, and there is still no smell of oil.

The next day, those who had nothing to do took their farm tools and water to turn the soil and prepare to plant corn.

The lush green wheat is a sight to behold.

Strong men dug the ground, while some women dug and others pulled weeds, and the older women weeded the wheat fields.

The children cried or played nearby, while the older children went to school early in the morning.

The atmosphere was almost entirely tense.

And somewhere on the mountain.

Several menacing-looking thugs cursed, "Damn it, with all these people gathered together, we have no way to grab the women!"

Another bandit said, "Don't rush, there must be some backward women here!"

After that, they disappeared without a trace.

Qin Qiming was helping Liu Xiuqin plow the field when he sensed something was wrong and immediately cast a wary glance in that direction.

He did feel someone staring at the back of his head, which made him uneasy.

He stared intently in that direction, and sure enough, a flock of birds were startled and flew out.

He instantly realized that Gao Liang did indeed have accomplices hiding deep in the mountains!

Qin Qiming took an iron whistle from the village chief and blew it.

The villagers stopped working when they heard the whistle.

Wang Tiantian was exhausted and sat on the ground.

Zhang Fengshun picked up the water bottle next to him, took a sip, and then turned to Wang Tiantian: "Here, have some water to quench your thirst."

Wang Tiantian, panting heavily, said, "Sister Feng, your husband is really a master at work, he's lightning fast!"

Zhang Feng laughed: "Hey, the head of the household is in his prime, how could he not be fast!"

"Look at his physique, he's incredibly strong, you're going to have a lot of good luck!" Wang Tiantian joked.

Zhang Feng rolled her eyes, her cheeks slightly flushed. "You, stop talking nonsense. My eldest daughter is almost as old as you. Don't tease your older sister like that!"

Wang Tiantian didn't continue the conversation. She drank some water and then looked up at the misty mountain peak.

"Sigh, such a beautiful mountain, yet we can only look at it from afar and dare not go up. What a pity!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Feng's expression changed slightly, and she lowered her voice, saying, "You probably don't know this, but our village chief's eighth sister, who is quick and efficient and always prefers to work alone, used to live in these deep mountains for many years!"

Wang Tiantian followed Zhang Feng's gaze.

"That's amazing! They actually dare to live alone deep in the mountains!"

Zhang Feng: "Now no one in the village dares to marry her, it's said she has a huge appetite!"

Wang Tiantian nodded: "I envy her. She can live freely in the deep mountains and adapt when she returns to the village!"

Zhang Feng shook her head: "I can't imagine dealing with bandits deep in the mountains and eating raw meat. I don't think I could last even a day!"

"Most women are like you. Although I envy her, I would definitely break down if I lived that kind of life!"

Qin Xiaotian glanced at Wang Tiantian with displeasure.

Wang Tiantian smiled and looked back.

But Qin Xiaotian just glanced at her dismissively and continued working.
