In just a few words, the two big shots of Yongxing Brigade decided the tiger's fate. They would let it run wild in the mountains for a few more days and deal with it after the spring hunt.
Seeing it was getting late, Tao Dabao and Yu Xuewen took their leave, bringing Zhao Jun with them.
By the time he and Tao Dabao made their way to Tao Dabao's house, Tao Fulun, Li Baoyu, and Tao Xiaobao's family of three were already there.
Tao Dabao had been in the army for many years. He only transferred back to his hometown in '80 after being wounded, then married and had a child.
His only son was just four years old now. At this moment, he was in Li Baoyu's arms, listening to him tell the story of how he had single-handedly slain the Wild Boar King.
Seeing Tao Dabao and Zhao Jun return, everyone stood up and crowded around them, asking about their trip up the mountain to hunt the tiger.
