Reborn in 1986, in an era where guns were not banned, hunting was not forbidden, and wildlife was not protected; an era when, because Black Bears and wild boars were devastating the fruits of the common people's hard labor, the higher authorities encouraged and called upon all villages to actively hunt.

As Zhao Jun, a young soldier of the Yong'an Village Civilian Militia Squad and a junior member of the Hunter's brigade, he shouldered his gun, headed into the great mountains, and began a life of hunting with his dogs.


Seeing Zhao Youcai return, Zhao Hong and Zhao Na called out, "Dad." Zhao Youcai grunted in acknowledgment, then began taking off his cotton-padded jacket, his eyes fixed on Zhao Jun.


"Dad," Zhao Jun said with a smile. "How come you're back so early today?"


"What about it?" Zhao Youcai headed for the hook on the wall with his jacket, but his eyes were glued to Zhao Jun. He shot back cockily, "This is my house. Is there a problem with me coming home early?"


Just then, Wang Meilan, who had gone to the cupboard for a ladle, returned. She glanced at Zhao Youcai and asked, "What's with you? Have you been drinking?"


At the sight of Wang Meilan, Zhao Youcai's bluster deflated. He mumbled, "No, I haven't. I haven't even eaten yet."


"You haven't?" Wang Meilan separated the chopsticks, handing a pair to Zhao Na and another to Zhao Hong before turning back to him. "If you haven't been drinking, why is your face all red?"
