Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.

In the afternoon, the group surveyed the terrain along the village roads.

Qiang Jinan frowned: "Brother Chang, something feels off. The village asked for help from above, so why are there only a few of us here?"

Chang Kun also found it strange, as their animal research institute was not within the scope of the request for assistance, and Qiang Jinnan came here simply because he was on vacation and happened to encounter this matter.

If they hadn't come, no one would have come to help the village during the fox plague.

Cheng Rongjiang looked around, afraid that some fox spirit might suddenly appear. "You two, don't overthink it. Let's do our best and leave the rest to fate."

"Uncle Cheng, there's no need for all this mystical nonsense. If we encounter a fox, we'll just shoot it in the eye. It can't possibly stop a bullet."

"Xiao Kun, you're still young and inexperienced. Back in the day, when we were fighting the Gray Immortal, the cannons roared all over the place, but we still couldn't kill him. You should always be more careful."

Chang Kun disagreed. Was it a lie that immortality was forbidden after the founding of the People's Republic of China?

As evening approached, the sun set in the west, the silver moon rose in the east, and the starlight became dim.

"The weather isn't looking good!"

Looking at the layers of dark clouds in the sky, Qiang Nan threw down the cigarette in his hand and crushed it fiercely. In this kind of darkness, visibility was extremely poor, and it would be difficult to hit the fox.

However, there are many times in the military that are even more difficult than this, and soldiers will always overcome difficulties and move forward.

As the dim moonlight rose higher and higher, suddenly, a loud shout reached their ears.

"Yo—"

This cry sounded like the mournful moo of an old ox on its deathbed, or like the terrifying roar of a cold wind blowing out of a cave.

It gave me goosebumps.

"Xiao Kun, this thing is no pushover. I've never heard such a creepy sound before."

Cheng Rongjiang picked up his rifle and aimed around.

The sound seemed to be a starting gun, and strange cries rose and fell all around the village.

"Ooh ooh ooh—"

"Awooo—"

"Waaaaah—"

There were roosters crowing, wolves howling, and babies crying, all mixed together, making it feel like I had entered a strange vegetable market.

"hey-hey--"

"whee--"

A few more giggles from the young wives drifted over, igniting Qiang Nan's anger. "Damn it, catch these foxes and skin them alive!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a soft panting sound came from the west, followed by...

"Ah! Ah! Oh—"

A groan, sounding like both crying and laughing, came from behind; the imitation was truly remarkable.

Holy crap! Chang Kun exclaimed inwardly, this voice acting is absolutely amazing, it's just like the real thing!

If this sound were used in a later Japanese film, it would be absolutely explosive, and the download numbers would definitely explode.

No wonder the villagers couldn't sleep at night because of the howling. No one could stand it when these vixens were acting like this!

*Click!*

Chang Kun loads his gun, ready to fire a single, deadly shot.

"Bang!"

After the gunshot, a scream was heard, and the strange cries from all around stopped abruptly.

"Great marksmanship, Brother Chang!"

Qiang Jin Nan shouted. He had been squinting and looking around for the fox, but hadn't found a trace of it.

Unexpectedly, Chang Kun hit the fox with his first shot.

At this moment, the entire village fell into a deathly silence, and the annoying strange noises disappeared.

Sensing that countless foxes were rushing frantically out of the village, Chang Kun no longer hesitated, picked up the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle, and the sound of 'bang bang' was incessant.

After firing four or five shots, they discovered that the foxes had retreated to the woods west of the village.

"Brother Chang, did you get it?"

Since Qiang Nan couldn't find the fox himself, he simply stood guard next to Chang Kun with a gun in hand.

"They all hit the target; the rest ran into the woods to the west."

"Tsk tsk, Brother Chang's marksmanship is truly superb! Shall we go chase after the fox?" After hearing about Xiang Yituo's experience of being bewitched and forced to eat toads and earthworms in a mass grave, Qiang Jin Nan felt a little scared.

Before Chang Kun could answer, a sudden engine roared from outside the village, followed by someone shouting, "Who's firing? Stop! Someone's coming!"

Chang Kun and Qiang Jinnan exchanged a glance.

Who is this, driving into the village so late at night?

Amidst the confusion, a five-person squad, fully armed, approached the group with a series of crisp, rhythmic footsteps.

"Who are you?" Qiang Jinnan stepped forward and asked, blocking Chang Kun's path.

"What are you from?" The man at the front, who had a leader-like demeanor, didn't answer but asked instead.

Qiang Jinan saluted: "I am from the ** Army, serving in the Northern troops. May I ask who you are?"

"Oh! So you're one of my comrades from the army. No wonder you're such a sharpshooter."

The newcomer nodded slightly, then asked, "I've stopped this village from requesting help from higher authorities. What brings you here?"

Upon hearing this, Qiang Jinnan looked wary: "What department are you? Why are you preventing the village from seeking help from outside?"

The newcomer smiled slightly, took out a black badge with gold lettering from his pocket, and handed it to Qiang Jinnan: "My department is under classified information. From now on, I will take over the task of preventing fox plagues in this village."

With a sense of doubt, Qiang Jinnan opened the document and froze on the spot. The number '60' and the 'Special Level Permission' embossed on the inner page of the document were clearly visible.

He suddenly remembered the rumors about that special department that was above the public security and military.

"Yes, sir!" After standing at attention and saluting, Qiang Jinnan gave Chang Kun a wink and turned to leave.

"Hey, buddy from the army, you still haven't told me how you got here?"

"I was on vacation when I heard about the fox infestation here, so I came to check it out. These two are staff members from the research institute, and they've also come to help resolve the fox infestation."

"A research institute? Aren't they researchers? How come they received a request for help from a village?" The visitor asked, puzzled, looking at Chang Kun and Cheng Rongjiang.

"Sir, this Brother Chang is an excellent marksman. He was the one who took down those foxes just now."

"Hmm, your marksmanship is quite good." The newcomer nodded to Chang Kun. "I'm taking over everything here now; you can leave."

"That fox..." Qiang Jin Nan wanted to explain Xiang Yi Tuo's experience to the newcomer.

But the man waved his hand and said, "Alright, brothers from the army, thank you for making this trip for nothing. We'll take care of the rest."

After being repeatedly shut down and told to leave, Qiang Jinnan held his anger in, said no more, and turned to leave.

Chang Kun smiled at the newcomer, said nothing more, and followed Qiang Jinnan away.

It would be best if they could resolve the fox plague; even if they couldn't, they could at least pave the way for us.

These foxes are indeed a bit unusual.

The ordinary foxes, having heard the gunshots and seen several of their companions shot dead, had long since vanished.

Now, the foxes have simply retreated far into the woods west of the village, no longer uttering a single strange cry, like a disciplined army.

Seeing Qiang Jinan and the others leave, the newcomer waved his hand and directed his squad: "Set off, find the fox, and capture him alive!"

At that moment, an old fox emerged from the pack of foxes in the forest.

Its entire body was jet black, its eyes were like blood-red jade, it raised its nose and sniffed the air, and the corners of its mouth curved into a smile, revealing a human-like smile on its fox face.

In the dark forest, under the dim moonlight, that smile was chilling to the bone.
