King of the Xing'an Hunters: Reborn in 1984 to Hunt and Gather Ginseng

[Rebirth + Hunting + Period Business Rivalry + Northeastern Flavor] Huo Jiachen spent forty years guarding the mountains. On the night of his retirement, he gets drunk and is reborn, returning to 1984, just after the first snowfall that changed his life.

Before him, a wild boar charges with a roar. Beside him is a brother who has yet to be gravely injured. In his memories is the love of his life, who died because of him.

This time, his hand holding the hunting knife no longer trembles. Forty years of hunting experience have become instinct. One slash to the throat, and he turns the tide of life and death.

From the village to the county town, from hunter to captain of the “Forest Protection Strike Team,” Huo Jiachen wants more than just enough to eat. He brings the county’s ruffians to heel and builds an empire in mountain goods, then takes a fishing boat to Vladivostok to open up cross-border trade. With a hunter’s wisdom, he claims his place in the vanguard of reform and opening up.

Black bears, packs of wolves, Siberian tigers… the entire Xing’an Range is his hunting ground.

But this time, he hunts more than beasts. He hunts people’s hearts and the times themselves. The officials coveting his woman, the spoiled brats blocking his path, and the Russian poachers crossing the border will all become “prey” beneath his rifle.

When gunfire rings out at the border once more, Huo Jiachen raises his Type 56 rifle.

“Last time, I guarded the mountains until I died. This time, this whole forest will bear the Huo name.”

Here you’ll find hunting scenes where every slash draws blood, a business legend built from nothing, and an epic tale of a man fighting to protect the ones he loves in that blazing-red era.
