Reborn at 60: I Helped My Sister Get Rich Starting from Hunting

Chapter 22 Destroying the Furry's Lair

Zhang Yang felt mentally exhausted!

Recently, he has been bombarded with requests for an explanation.

He didn't want to spend time explaining everything!

Since they have doubts, this is a perfect test of the team members' obedience.

“Hunting in the mountains is not easy, and I understand your concerns, brothers. If anyone feels that using a spear is inappropriate, you can leave now!” Zhang Yang said seriously, carrying his gun.

Some hesitated, seemingly ready to lay down their spears.

Zhang Yang deliberately turned his back to them, refusing to look at them, and let them make their own choices.

Sure enough, as soon as he turned around, two men dropped their spears and ran home.

Zhao Dong was furious, "Coward!"

"Dongzi, don't scold them." Zhang Yang stopped Zhao Dong. "We must learn to respect everyone's choices. Those who want to leave can't be kept sooner or later."

They spoke very quietly, as if they didn't intend to tell anyone else.

But Shen Yiming was close to them, and he heard every word Zhang Yang said, as well as the meaning of selection and promotion in his tone.

Shen Yiming looked down again at the spear in his hand.

Suddenly, he turned to the other villagers who were still hesitating and said, "Before we had guns, didn't we rely on these rudimentary tools and weapons to defend ourselves against the enemy?"

"If we can use spears well now, we'll be invincible when we switch to guns!"

"If you don't have the courage to go up the mountain, then you're really not suited to it."

Zhao Dong chuckled, "You're the one who knows what's going on!"

Zhang Yang also gained a better impression of Shen Yiming.

This person is indeed intelligent and quick-witted.

If he can confirm Shen Yiming's loyalty in the upcoming tests, he would be willing to cultivate such a strategist by his side.

"Is everything settled? If you're ready to go, come with me."

Zhang Yang took the lead and walked towards Jiazigou.

The wind wasn't strong tonight, and the surroundings were even quieter.

In addition, the militia reserve team had no lighting equipment, so everyone could only rely on the dim moonlight and proceed cautiously in the dark.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Zhao Dong suddenly seemed to recognize something and froze in surprise.

"It's here..."

Shen Yiming followed closely behind him, and when he paused, the two almost collided.

Shen Yiming helped Zhao Dong up. "What's wrong?"

"Look there!" Zhao Dong pointed deep into the woods. "See that? There's a wolf's head hanging there!"

Shen Yiming looked in the direction he was told, and after looking for a while, he realized that there was indeed a head hanging in mid-air in the woods!

"How...how did it fly?!" Shen Yiming tried hard to hide his fear.

Seeing that someone was even more afraid than him, Zhao Dong laughed instead.

"You didn't fly! Look again, you're supported by a tree branch! My brother Yangzi is a good shot, not a sorcerer!"

Shen Yiming smiled sheepishly.

After their banter, the atmosphere within the team seemed a bit more relaxed than before.

However, just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Zhang Yang suddenly shouted, "There's something here!"

The seven people following him froze in place.

"Where?"

"Yangzi, did you see clearly? What is that?!"

"Could it be wolves again?!"

As soon as the word "wolf" was uttered, the temporary team members instinctively huddled together.

“Wolves can’t just make this much noise. I’m guessing it’s either a field mouse or a rabbit. You guys take spears and try chasing after them!” Zhang Yang said.

But after the words were spoken, no one made a move for quite some time!

Zhang Yang panicked, "Are you here on patrol and hunting?!"

The team members who followed complained in a low voice, "We're not familiar with the terrain here and we couldn't even see what it was. How come you saw it? Why don't you lead the charge first and we'll just follow you."

Zhao Dong yelled, "If you're not going to chase them, I will!"

He ran forward with his crossbow in his arms, shouting, "Whether it's a rabbit or a field mouse, once I catch it, it's mine. Nobody can take it from me!"

That did have some effect.

The few people who were just hesitating at the back immediately felt a surge of energy in their legs.

They quickly caught up with Zhao Dong.

Of these people, Shen Yiming reacted the fastest.

As he ran, he tucked the spear behind his back.

But once he saw the small, dark mass in front of him, he immediately raised his spear and thrust it downwards!

It has enough power, but unfortunately, its accuracy is lacking.

The spear missed its mark.

Startled, the little creature darted even faster and quickly hid in a burrow on the other side.

"Did you see it clearly?" the others asked as they caught up.

Zhao Dong pushed aside the temporary team members blocking his way, saying, "Don't block my view, I'll shoot it dead with one arrow."

No sooner said than done, a "whoosh" was heard as the crossbow bolt was fired.

Then, a muffled thud came from inside the tree hole.

"It looks like it hit!"

The crowd cheered, and some people reached in to take things out of the hole.

"Wait!" Zhang Yang shouted, "These wild creatures are very ferocious! If there are more than two rabbits in the burrow, and one of them dies, the remaining one will be frightened and will definitely bite people! If you are bitten by these wild animals, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

The man quickly withdrew his hand.

Zhang Yang called to Zhao Dong, "Let's use our machetes to dig open this hole from both sides. The thing inside will be startled and will definitely rush out."

He then instructed the people following behind, "Keep a close eye on it. If anything jumps out, kill it immediately!"

"Yes!"

Zhang Yang chopped down with his machete, and the frozen, hard earthen cave instantly cracked open with several marks.

Zhao Dong followed up with a fatal blow.

After only a couple of chops, the entrance to the earthen cave turned into a large pit.

A dark brown ball of fur lay at the entrance of the cave, with a pair of long ears.

"It's a rabbit! It really is a rabbit!"

"There is meat to eat!"

Zhao Dong grabbed the hare and revealed the arrow on its back.

"I just told you, whoever shoots it gets to keep it! I shot this rabbit, so it's mine!"

The person who had been fantasizing about eating rabbit meat immediately felt a pang of disappointment.

But he didn't give up and immediately started digging in the large pit, thinking, "There might be more in here! Whatever I find is mine!"

As they were talking, they actually pulled out another pair of ears!

The rabbit inside was probably stunned by the clods of earth that had just collapsed from the pit.

Now that someone has grabbed him by the ear and pulled him up, his hind legs start kicking wildly.

"I have a rabbit too!"

The man shouted excitedly, making the other temporary team members, who had come empty-handed, feel quite bad.

"Let's see if there's any left!"

Shen Yiming also started digging, his eyes filled with a desperate, fading hope.

Unfortunately, after digging for a long time, all they found was a pile of dirt with bits of grass.

Shen Yiming was dejected and plopped down on the ground.

Zhang Yang patted him on the shoulder, "Victory is in sight, why give up now?"
