Reborn at 60: I Helped My Sister Get Rich Starting from Hunting
Chapter 79: Did I become a familiar face?
In Zhang Yang's mind, he would have to go deep into the mountains to run into that group of outsiders.
But these guys seem to have been waiting for this for ages!
He had only been away from Maoli Town for a short time when he was ambushed by a group of foreign enemies on a deserted path!
The leader who stopped him was the one-eyed man who had tried to negotiate with him on the black market.
This person has one grayish-white eyeball with a cloudy lens; it's unknown what heinous crime he committed to cause it to become like this.
People were somewhat intimidated by his appearance.
Zhang Yang, however, stared at his eyes as if admiring something new and interesting.
His gaze instantly offended the one-eyed man!
"You've got some nerve, kid! Carrying that bear head around like that in town!"
Zhang Yang glared at them. "It's mine, I can do whatever I want with it! I want to flaunt it and let everyone know that this bear head is mine! You won't be able to take it from me!"
"Hahaha! What an arrogant and conceited brat!"
"Looks like you won't know how powerful the outside world is until I teach you a lesson today!"
Several men immediately surrounded them.
Without wasting any words, Zhang Yang immediately raised the hunting rifle in his hand.
Before they could speak again, he aimed at the empty space at the one-eyed man's feet and fired a shot!
"Damn it! This kid's got a death wish!"
"You fired first, so don't blame us for not being polite!"
They all pulled out the guns on their backs and aimed them at Zhang Yang!
However, just as a fierce firefight was about to begin, two bullets suddenly rang out from the nearby woods, hitting the legs of two of the out-of-towners.
"Ah! My legs!"
"Oh no! There's an ambush."
"Are those the kid's three accomplices?"
"They don't have that many guns! Don't be afraid, just go for it! This bear head, I'm going to get it today!"
While the group was still discussing their strategy, two more shots were fired from the woods.
Immediately afterwards, Jin Ce led a group of people out and surrounded them, pinning them to the ground.
"Don't move! Zhenhai City Police Department!"
"You've been reported by the public for robbery in the street!"
"Please cooperate with us and return to the police station for investigation."
"Anyone who disobeys will be shot on the spot!"
A large group of police officers subdued the out-of-town peddlers.
It was only by the light they were carrying that Zhang Yang could see clearly that there were actually seven people who had come to surround him!
"That's outrageous! Seven people against one of me?" Zhang Yang exclaimed. "It's like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut!"
Jin Ce laughed so hard he almost fell over, "You can't say that! They must think you're amazing to be willing to use so many people!"
Zhang Yang gave him a deep look and said, "I was blind before, I didn't know you were police officers."
Jin Ce waved his hand, pointing to the group of people who were actually handling the work, "They are, I am not!"
Zhang Yang: "And who are you?"
Jin Ce's smile turned awkward. "Ah... I'm just an ordinary errand runner."
Zhang Yang: "Oh... okay. I'll leave the rest to you guys. My brothers are worried about me, so I have to hurry and meet up with them."
Jin Ce nodded, "Okay! No problem! I can handle the rest of the statement taking! They robbed you, which is the same as robbing me. This time they'll definitely pay!"
With the matter settled, Zhang Yang breathed a sigh of relief.
With the enormous bear head on his back, he finally embarked on his journey home!
The mountains and forests were silent at night; after walking for miles, you couldn't see a single living person.
It's strangely lonely.
However, the road from Maoli Town to Old Man Jiang's house is rich in vegetation, so it should be full of treasures after spring arrives.
Even in the dead of winter, hope fills my heart with warmth and passion.
Even their steps became lighter.
Zhang Yang hurried along, and when he arrived near Old Jiang's house, he could see the mule tied up at the door from afar.
"Uncle Jiang! Dongzi! I'm back!"
Zhang Yang shouted loudly at them.
The mule, munching on a corn stalk, raised its head and brayed at him twice, its thick tail swishing back and forth as if to greet him.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Dong was the first to run out of the collapsed house.
The moment he saw Zhang Yang, he suddenly rushed over and hugged Zhang Yang tightly.
"Yangzi! You're my brother! You better promise me right now that you'll never go on adventures alone again!"
Zhang Yang wasn't used to such intimate gestures, so he punched Zhao Dong in the stomach.
"What kind of crazy dream are you having? Where did I go on any adventures? I just went to help someone out and came back late!"
However, the old man Jiang, Gao Wen, and Gao Wu who came out of the house later all had red eyes, and they all looked like they had just been crying.
Zhang Yang was both annoyed and amused.
"I'm perfectly fine!"
"You're crying too soon..."
"Hurry up and pack it up, don't cry later when you're really gone!"
His ever-present cheerful smile broke Gao Wu's heart even more.
"My God! How could God have created such a wonderful person as Yangzi!"
Zhang Yang was a little embarrassed by his loud shout.
He didn't do anything!
That is...
Did I become a familiar face to the Zhenhai City police?
But they live in villages, are honest and law-abiding, and generally don't need this kind of connection.
I'm not going to think about it anymore!
Zhang Yang rubbed his stomach and asked, "Is there anything to eat?"
Zhao Dong: "Yes! I stewed bear meat! And pickled fish!"
Zhang Yang was pushed into the house by them. When he looked inside, although it was a mess, the stove was tidied up.
There was a pot of braised bear meat with potatoes simmering on the stove, and it smelled delicious!
Old Jiang's old house may look small, but it has everything he needs.
Now that star anise and bear meat were in the pot, Zhang Yang's appetite was whetted, and he felt like he could eat a whole cow!
He held up a large bowl, scooped it to the brim for himself, and then called out to the others, "Are you all full? If not, eat some more! There's so much left, I can't finish it all by myself!"
"If we can't finish it, we'll take it with us later," Old Jiang said. "I've already thought it through. There's not much to take from this house except this old pot, and the potatoes, sweet potatoes, cabbages, and radishes in the cellar... Most importantly, it's my jar of pickled fish!"
"Yes, yes! Yangzi, you should try it!"
Gao Wu eagerly presented Zhang Yang with another broken bowl containing a piece of pickled fish.
"This stuff smells awful! But it tastes absolutely amazing!"
Zhang Yang immediately picked up a piece of chopsticks.
He almost threw up after taking one bite!
What a weird smell!
Old Jiang laughed heartily, "If you can't finish it, that's fine! This was taught to me by a bearded man who sells big loaves of bread! Marinating it directly with cleaned raw fish meat creates a wonderfully complex flavor! However, whether it's delicious or not is subjective; it seems you're not into this kind of thing!"
Zhang Yang couldn't bear to waste food, so he swallowed the fish whole.
Seeing the variety of expressions on his face, everyone burst into laughter again.
After eating and drinking their fill, the group took Old Jiang's belongings and had him ride on the mule's neck, returning to Zhangjiatun under the starlight.
