Lin Bei's arrogant demeanor was extinguished by the village chief's words, and he stood there in a daze.

This is completely different from what he had expected!

Isn't Chen Feng most afraid of losing face in front of outsiders? When Lu Fang and I went to him to borrow money before...

He only needed a few words of provocation and he would obediently hand over the money.

He used to laugh at the other person behind their back, saying they were too proud to admit it and suffered for it!

But Chen Zhengang wouldn't care about Lin Bei's thoughts; he had to explain things clearly.

It's not too late to help Chen Feng now, since we couldn't help him earlier.

If the other party is willing to help even a relative like this, and I help them today, will I still have to worry about not being able to curry favor with Director Yang through Chen Feng's connection in the future?

"Lin Bei, everyone in the village knows what kind of person you are. If you don't want things to get out of control, you'd better pay back the money. Damn it, these days, owing money makes you feel like a big shot!"

Chen Zhengang remembered that he also had some old grudges that he couldn't get back, which made him even more disgusted with people like Lin Bei.

Seeing her husband's incompetence, Lu Fang had no choice but to say, "There's still thirty or forty yuan left at home. I'll bring it all. We were wrong in this matter. We'll try our best to raise the rest and pay it off as soon as possible!"

Hearing his wife's words, Lin Bei felt a surge of anger rise within him again: "When I asked you for money before, why did you say you didn't have any?!"

"How dare you say that? If we gave you all our money, my child and I would have starved to death long ago!"

Lin Qingfeng felt extremely embarrassed. Seeing that the matter was almost resolved, he grabbed Lin Bei's ear and headed home.

Lin Beizao had no idea how old he was, and Lin Qingfeng was always mindful of his son's feelings.

He was really angry today.

If he doesn't break a belt today, he's not a Lin!

Fearing that her husband might beat their son badly in a fit of anger, Lu Dan hurriedly chased after him.

Chen Feng didn't stop him. He said he would go to his parents-in-law's house to have a proper chat when he had the chance in the future.

After all, he also had to consider Lin Xiu's feelings and couldn't afford to have too much of a falling out with them.

Chen Zhengang tried to smooth things over again, saying, "Everyone, hurry up and eat. We'll try to get them here by noon!"

Everyone's attention shifted back to rescuing people on the mountain. After a quick bite to eat, they headed together towards Wufeng Mountain.

When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Yang Kai and the others were already waiting there.

"Chief, we've located the two people! We'll have to ask the staff from the health center to accompany us up the mountain later, just in case anything goes wrong during transport!"

Yang Kai breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Chen Zhengang's report; thankfully, the worst-case scenario hadn't occurred.

"Dean Wei, would you please come up the mountain with the other doctors?"

"Okay," Dean Wei said, taking inventory of the emergency medicines and stretchers before heading up the mountain with Chen Feng and his group.

The south slope was much gentler than the north slope, and everyone quickly found the gully that Wang Jiaxiaozi had mentioned.

Chen Feng directed two people to split up and search for the wounded. Soon, the sound of calling the wounded's names echoed through the ravine.

He and Lao Huang had another purpose for going up the mountain this time: to find the two guns that Zhao Dahai had abandoned.

But in these remote mountains and forests, finding a person is as difficult as climbing to heaven, let alone a gun whose whereabouts are unknown.

Seeing that Chen Feng was sullen, Lao Huang assumed that he was still troubled by the unpleasant things that had just happened.

He offered some words of comfort: "Every family has its own problems, and some rotten people aren't worth your time. But you were really brave just now. If I were your age, I'd probably have to suffer in silence!"

Chen Feng nodded. In this era, people still value family ties and face, and are often unwilling to completely ruin things.

Having lived two lives, he finally saw through the true colors of many people, and so he decided he could no longer tolerate it.

There are some people, no matter how good you are to them!

Old Huang said with some emotion, "It's good that you handled it this way. Once word gets out, everyone in the village will know you're not someone to be trifled with!"

"Actually, I was so angry just now that I blurted out what Lin Bei had done."

"I can tell you're a kind person, but many people just think you're easy to bully, and then they'll take advantage of you!"

Old Huang stared intently at Chen Feng and said that this was the experience he had gained from suffering many losses over the decades. He felt that he had received a favor from Chen Feng, so he patiently enlightened him.

Chen Feng pondered the conversation carefully, and nodded after a long while.

Having just been reborn, I haven't changed many of my views yet, and I've unknowingly suffered quite a few losses.

Old Huang's advice is correct: one should not provoke others, but if someone provokes one, one should never let the other party get away with it.

"Uncle Huang, I understand!"

"Don't call me 'Uncle,' it sounds too formal. Just call me Lao Huang or Brother Huang!"

Old Huang doesn't care about seniority or such things. As long as they get along well, he'll treat them with all his heart.

But if there's someone I don't like, like a two-faced scoundrel like Chen Zhengang, I won't even bother saying a few words!

"Alright, Brother Huang. I heard from a friend that he lost his gun in the mountains..."

Chen Feng also wanted to hear Lao Huang's opinion. Although he was familiar with the mountains, it would always be good to have more people to offer suggestions.

Old Huang gave Chen Feng a deep look; a gun is a hunter's second life.

But he was too lazy to delve into it; everyone has secrets, after all.

"If what your friend said is true, I advise you not to look for it!"

"Ah," Chen Feng asked in astonishment, "Why?"

"A gun that has malfunctioned is considered unlucky. Who can guarantee that it won't break down again after you fix it? If it breaks down when you urgently need it, you might lose your life in the mountains."

Old Huang looked somewhat downcast when he said this; his father had made the same mistake.

Reluctant to change guns, the gun jammed when they encountered a tiger.

After hearing this, Chen Feng felt a chill run down his spine. Fortunately, his homemade gun had never malfunctioned; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

"I see you plan to spend more time in the mountains, so you should get a better gun. A Type 56 assault rifle would be ideal, but if that's not possible, at least get a double-barreled shotgun!"

Chen Feng smiled wryly, "How could I not want to? But Brother Huang, you know how it is now. Standard firearms aren't so easy to get these days. Even if we had the means, I couldn't afford them!"

Old Huang kept everyone in suspense: "If you can get two or three hundred, I actually have a way to get you a double-barreled shotgun!"

Chen Feng's eyes lit up immediately: "Is it really that cheap?"

He had inquired around a lot during this time, but the cheapest one cost 500 yuan, so he put the idea of ​​buying a gun on hold.

Old Huang laughed and kicked Chen Feng: "Do you think I've lived these past few decades for nothing! As long as you have the money ready, guns won't be a problem! But you wouldn't be thinking of shooting bears, would you?"

Chen Feng nodded: "If that bear isn't eliminated, it will remain a threat in the end!"

"Tell me when you're going to make a move, and we'll go up the mountain together. That bear is incredibly vicious; several people have died in its jaws over the years!"

"We've found all three of them, don't go any further into the mountains!" A villager's voice suddenly came from behind, and Chen Feng and Lao Huang silently shut their mouths.
