Reborn 73 years later, he takes his mother-in-law hunting in the mountains.

Looking at the time, it's almost midday.

Gou Shengzi asked, "Tuwazi, are we going into the mountains today?"

"I'll take you there, but not today."

The older kids had often gone bird hunting in the nearby mountains, but they had never actually hunted.

The hunting teams organized by the adults never took them along.

They had no weapons, no experience, and dared not venture into the deep mountains.

With Lu Yao, a skilled hunter, leading the way, they were all filled with boundless pride.

They planned to hunt some prey to show the adults and prove their abilities.

Lu Yao, however, had some reservations.

Although we killed dozens of wolves last time, we didn't wipe out the entire wolf pack.

Therefore, Lu Yao was somewhat wary.

The group of friends were all complete novices; if they were to encounter a pack of wolves again, they probably wouldn't be as calm as Imana.

We can't just take the risk rashly; let's train them in archery and javelin throwing first.

The teenagers finished getting ready and were about to leave.

Then someone outside shouted:

"Is this Lu Yao's home?"

When Lu Yao and the others came out, they saw several people pushing bicycles.

In front of him was a fat man in a Zhongshan suit, and behind him were three young men carrying rifles.

While they were called fat, people in those days weren't really that overweight; they were just chubby.

However, it's clear that her face is quite oily.

Lu Yao knew him.

Yang Shouye, the local tyrant of Shuiling Town and the head of the commune.

Lu Yao couldn't help but sneer; this was someone personally making an appearance.

He asked, "What do you want with me?"

The chubby Yang Shouye didn't recognize Lu Yao, this little brat.

Upon hearing him admit that he was Lu Yao, he couldn't help but look him up and down.

Just him?

He stabbed his own son several times?

Yang Shouye gritted his teeth in hatred.

Yesterday, Ge Sanwang failed to deal with him and even lost his position as militia company commander.

This time, he not only brought three militiamen with him, but also joined forces with Chief Zuo of the local police station, who should arrive soon.

Looking at the wolf pelts that Lu Yao had hung out to dry in the yard, he felt both angry and jealous.

Hunters are usually so proud of themselves if they manage to kill two wolves that they brag about it everywhere.

This kid has made a whole yard full of stuff.

So outrageous!

Although he hated Lu Yao to the core, he still didn't show it on his face.

He chuckled and said, "So you're Lu Yao. Okay, we're from the commune, we're here to investigate something at your house!"

"Oh my, you must be Director Yang! Please come in!"

At this moment, Jiang Guizhi came out and was so frightened when she saw that it was Yang Shouye that she almost lost her soul.

Why would such a high-ranking leader come to my house?

Even the Minister of Armed Forces yesterday wasn't this shocked.

Because I don't have much of a concept of what a minister is.

"A local official is more powerful than a distant one," and this was the big boss of the Shuiling Commune.

In particular, Jiang Guizhi knew that Lu Yao had hit Yang Shouye's son.

So when Yang Shouye arrives, it must be to demand an explanation.

She forced a smile, but couldn't hide the fear on her face.

Lu Yao reached out and pushed Jiang Guizhi:

"Mom, go back inside. I want to talk to him for a bit."

"We should still invite the leader inside!"

"No need, he doesn't want to go in. You go back quickly. Gou Shengzi, Er Ni'er, take my mother back to the house."

When Gou Shengzi and Er Ni'er heard that it was Director Yang from the commune who had come, they were also frightened.

They quickly pulled Jiang Guizhi inside.

Jiang Guizhi was worried, so she climbed onto the kang (a heated brick bed) and poked a hole in the paper window to look outside.

In the courtyard, there were only Lu Yao and Yang Shouye, as well as three militiamen carrying guns.

After Yang Shouye finished laughing, his expression gradually turned cold.

"Tell me, where did all those wolves you hunted go?"

"It has been distributed to the villagers and commune members."

Did you accept money or gifts from them?

"What, trying to frame me and arrest me? Are you settling a personal score? It's just because I hit your son! Stop putting on airs. Your son led a raid on your house, and you're in the wrong, so you want to cause me trouble over something else?"

A militiaman shouted angrily, "You better behave! How dare you speak to your superior like that!"

Another militiaman asked Yang Shouye, "Director Yang, should we take him back? He'll tell us everything if we ask him. We've seen plenty of arrogant people; he won't behave unless we beat him up!"

Yang Shouye shook his head: "Don't rush, we won't take him. If he's a speculator, then Director Zuo will deal with him."

He looked at Lu Yao with a half-smile:

"Don't make false accusations! My meeting with you has nothing to do with your fight with Yang Ming. You know whether you committed a crime or not! Wait a minute, Mayor Zuo and Chief Zuo will be here soon. It was people from your village who reported you to the police station."

She glanced at her watch, then placed her hands on her lower abdomen and looked at Lu Yao smugly.

Lu Yao sneered, "Then what are you doing here? Want to watch the show?"

"I brought the militia here to cooperate with the public security department."

"I think you should stop pretending to be all high and mighty. Everyone knows you're corrupt and abuse your power. Your son bullies others because you're always there to back him up!"

Yang Shouye's lips twitched, but he still managed to force a smile:

"Go ahead and curse! Let's see if you still dare to curse me when we get inside!"

Lu Yao continued cursing: "Fine, you told me to keep cursing. Not only do you indulge your son's violent behavior, but you'll also take advantage of your daughter-in-law in the future. You'll also abuse your power to humiliate female subordinates. If you hadn't provoked me, you would have been investigated a year later and sentenced to ten years in prison for hooliganism and rape. But you insisted on provoking me, so I'm going to file a formal complaint against you. You've been having affairs with the women's directors of several villages, and you threatened them when they disagreed!"

These words were like a bolt from the blue.

"Snap!"

It exploded right above Yang Shouye's head.

He never imagined that a mere child could utter such shocking words.

Lu Yao was not afraid of Yang Shouye because he could foresee the future.

He remembered that Yang Shouye was investigated at the end of 1975.

Later, when he killed the ferryman and fled, he saw Yang Shouye being paraded through the streets with a large sign on his person.

He was reportedly sentenced to ten years.

Because they knew each other, Lu Yao followed the parade vehicle for a long distance and listened to the loudspeaker's explanation of his crimes.

However, it had been so long that he couldn't remember the details, so he just gave a rough account, which still frightened Yang Shouye quite a bit.

In this day and age, engaging in promiscuous relationships is severely punished.

Later, during the crackdown in the 1980s, they even executed young women who danced cheek to cheek.

Moreover, his misconduct went beyond these issues; he also frequently embezzled poverty alleviation funds and misappropriated commune funds.

On the surface, Yang Shouye was fair and honest, and meticulous in his work.

In reality, it's also about lining one's own pockets.

To avenge his son, he had to go through a long and complicated process to avoid attracting attention.

It makes people think he's a good official.

What even their own family didn't know was unexpectedly revealed by a teenager.

Yang Shouye's lips were trembling:

"You...you shouldn't make baseless accusations and spout nonsense. What evidence do you have to frame me?"

Lu Yao, of course, had no evidence.

I only remember the gist of what I heard decades ago; I've long forgotten the details.

However, he was certain that Yang Shouye definitely had excrement on him.

At this moment, I couldn't help but smile and say:

"Whether I have evidence or not, I'll tell my superiors. What's the use of telling you? Aren't you going to get the police to arrest me? Then I'll atone for my crime by reporting corrupt officials!"

Yang Shouye felt his heart trembling.

"Hmph, you're talking nonsense. I, surnamed Yang, have acted uprightly and honestly, and have no shame before heaven and earth, nor before the organization that nurtured me..."

Even the militiamen standing nearby found it strange.

This scoundrel just said it casually, and none of us believed it. Why is Director Yang so agitated?

Why are you pledging your loyalty?

Just then, a jeep pulled up outside.

Children in the mountains rarely see motor vehicles.

Upon seeing the jeep, they ran after it.

Yang Shouye was also taken aback when he saw it:

"This is a vehicle from the county!"

Run out of the yard quickly.

The jeep stopped, and a pretty girl with her short hair tied up in a small brush jumped out.

"Lu Yao, come here, our leader wants to see you!"

As the other car door opened, a tall, smiling elderly man stepped out.

As soon as I got out of the car, I was drawn to the wolf pelts drying in the yard.

"Huo, Ju Wen, you really weren't lying to me."

When Yang Shouye saw this, he was quite frightened.

Isn't this County Chief Hao Limin?

Why is he here!
