"A good hunter? Great!
That’s what we’re worried about!”
Xu Xiaodong also said with surprise.
"Okay! Then you guys wait in the ward for a while. He's in the next ward and should come over soon.
Let me introduce him to you. He is truly extraordinary. Although he is young, he is very capable and is a great hero in our county."
County Magistrate Xiong was not at all stingy in praising Lin Huowang, especially now, County Magistrate Xiong really wanted to introduce Lin Huowang to some second-generation people of distinguished status.
At least it can be considered as a good karma, which may be of great help to Lin Huowang in the future!
But who would have thought that as soon as he said this, Zhao Mengsheng next to him immediately laughed and said:
"County Magistrate Xiong!
I found that the specialty of your Baishan County should not be ginseng or deer antlers, but should be [hero], right?
I came here so early in the morning and my ears are almost callused from hearing so much talk about heroes everywhere.
Where do so many heroes come from!
Really, it’s an exaggeration! "
"Hmm? Xiaodong, this is Comrade Xiao..."
County Magistrate Xiong is the head of a county after all. Naturally, he would not be in a good mood, especially when the other party was making sarcastic remarks about the entire Baishan County.
Xu Xiaodong immediately glared at Zhao Mengsheng, and then quickly said to County Magistrate Xiong:
“Uncle Xiong, this is Zhao Mengsheng… You should have heard of his parents, especially his mother, who is the elder sister in the revolutionary team.
In fact, he is not a bad person, he just got spoiled since he was a child and has a very bad mouth.
Just this morning, I had a quarrel with one of Xiaojun's friends! I scolded him. "
"Zhao Mengsheng! So he is Mengsheng!
When he was just born, our regiment and his mother's unit happened to cross Mengshan together, and I even held him in my arms!"
Upon hearing the other party's background, County Magistrate Xiong no longer cared about what he had just said, and instead burst into laughter.
"What? You hugged me?"
Now it was Zhao Mengsheng's turn to feel embarrassed. After all, the person lying on the bed opposite him was an elder who had held him in his arms when he was a child. His momentum immediately weakened.
"Haha! Yes!
Your mother was malnourished at the time, and you were small and dark when you were born, looking almost like a little monkey.
But I didn't expect that you'd grow up so big in the blink of an eye.
He is quite tall, probably weighing about 180 pounds?
It’s the soil and water of New China that nourishes people!
That’s great! You were born in a good era! "
County Magistrate Xiong couldn't help but sigh.
At this moment, Lin Huowang also came back from the bed next door, intending to say goodbye to County Magistrate Xiong for the final time and leave.
result……
As soon as I entered the ward, I saw the group of second-generation people who came to the guesthouse to look for me in the morning.
Zhao Mengsheng and the others had their backs to the ward door, so they didn't see Lin Huowang come in. It was County Magistrate Xiong who pointed outside the door and said with a smile:
"Here he comes! Look, the great hero I told you about, the senior hunter, is here."
Everyone turned around and was also stunned.
Especially Zhao Mengsheng, he stared at Lin Huowang with eyes wide open and said:
"Who am I?
It's you again, kid!
It seems that you are quite capable. Even County Chief Xiong recommended you to us as our hunting guide."
Xu Xiaodong politely stepped forward and shook hands with Lin Huowang, saying:
"Comrade Lin Huowang, it seems we are destined to meet again after just parting.
If Uncle Bear hadn't introduced you, we wouldn't have known that you were such an experienced hunter!"
The two girls, Chen Jing and Xu Xiaoyun, also blinked their eyes and looked at Lin Huowang with curiosity.
The light in the ward was not very bright, and the light coming through the window cast mottled shadows on Lin Huowang, making them try to find some "heroic" qualities in him.
Huang Xiaoli looked around Lin Huowang a few times in disbelief, his footsteps making a "dong dong" sound on the floor of the ward, and asked: "How old are you?
With this physique, you dare to call yourself a senior hunter?
I'm afraid you were bragging in front of County Magistrate Xiong, right?"
Upon seeing this, County Magistrate Xiong immediately helped Lin Huowang explain:
“Although Awang may not be as strong as you, he is a good marksman and is familiar with the situation in the mountains and forests.
Apart from anything else, I heard that Awang killed nine wild boars by himself not long ago.
He even competed with the Siberian tiger in the mountains.
Later, a pack of wolves attacked the village at night, but Awang drove them away alone with a rifle..."
When County Magistrate Xiong said this, the ward fell silent.
Only his voice echoed in the air, and every word seemed to add to Lin Huowang's heroic deeds.
After introducing Lin Huowang's battle record, Xu Xiaodong and Huang Xiaoli were both excited.
They knew very well that hunting in the mountains in winter was not an easy task. There were all kinds of dangers hidden in the mountains and forests. The accumulated snow might cover the traps, and the whereabouts of wild animals were unpredictable.
If Lin Huowang is really as powerful as County Magistrate Xiong said, with him around, their safety would at least be more guaranteed.
When Zhao Mengsheng heard this, he also widened his eyes and came close to Lin Huowang. His coat swayed with his movements, and a faint smell of snowflakes followed. He said:
“Is this true?
You killed nine wild boars by yourself?
I heard that the wild boar skins in Northeast China are mixed with resin and mud, like armor. Ordinary rifle bullets cannot penetrate them. You have to shoot at vital parts such as the eyes and belly.
Okay!
Since County Chief Xiong says you are so awesome, then you are qualified to be our hunting guide. Show us your skills when the time comes."
However……
Facing their words, Lin Huowang had no interest at all. He directly refused:
"Excuse me!
County Magistrate Xiong, I have a lot of things to do when I return to Linjiagou, and I really don't have time to accompany a few kids to play in the mountains.
If you have nothing else to do, I will go back first. Goodbye! "
After saying that, Lin Huowang nodded slightly, turned around and was about to leave the ward.
