At least he still had some sense. After Chen Xiuqing froze, even though he was extremely impulsive, he still tore off the hand of this woman who disgusted him, led the horse and left in a hurry.
"Hey... you're already like that and you're still pretending to me!"
The woman giggled behind her and followed again.
Chen Xiuqing did not dare to stay any longer. Her heart was beating wildly and she walked faster and faster. Desperately, she finally got rid of the woman.
He burrowed in the intricate alleyways for a while, and found that the situation was similar everywhere. When he finally returned to the street, it looked like nothing had happened, and the police had left.
He vomited turbid air for a long time.
After wandering around the street for a while, he was already hungry after a long day's journey. He chose a restaurant, tied his horse to the tethering stone at the door, and walked in.
He ordered a few dishes for himself, ordered a bottle of Huma white wine, and drank it slowly. While listening to the people in the restaurant talking nonsense, he looked at the people passing by on the street, and suddenly felt that his life was
Moisturize it.
Thinking of the veins of gold sand in the ditch, he couldn't help but laugh. For a moment, his heart felt like a wild horse running wild. He only thought that the days to come would be endlessly beautiful, with a mouthful of food and a mouthful of wine.
ring.
Little did they know that his weird appearance had been noticed by many people in the restaurant.
In fact, when he entered Jinshan Town, he was stared at by many people along the way.
The people hanging out in this place are either being killed or killing others, and there are many who want to kill others.
Even though it is already this year and the situation outside is changing, there are still many people running rampant and using various methods in this place close to the border river.
Chen Xiuqing was drunk and had downed a bottle of Huma Baijiu. Even though he had a good drink capacity, he was already shaking unknowingly and his head was confused.
At this moment, a person sat across the table.
Chen Xiuqing stared at the man for a long time with bleary eyes: "Man, are you..." He shook his head and thought hard for a while, "Looks familiar, we have met somewhere..."
Before he finished speaking, he couldn't sit still anymore. He suddenly fell down on the table, causing the cups and saucers in front of him to rattle. The empty wine bottle rolled on the table. When he fell off the table, he was hit by the man opposite.
He grabbed it and put it back on the table.
The man stretched out his hand and shook his shoulder: "Brother, brother, wake up... You can't drink, but you still drink so much... Oh!"
Seeing that Chen Xiuqing was motionless, he got up and called the owner of the restaurant, calculated the cost of a table of food and drinks, and then helped Chen Xiuqing out of the restaurant.
There were many people in the restaurant, and when they saw this, they all followed him out.
But when I went outside, I saw three people waiting, all with dicks on their bodies, and they wisely stepped back.
The next morning, when Chen Xiu woke up, he found that he was sleeping in the field.
The semi-automatic was gone, the bullet pouch was gone, the hunting bag on his back was gone, and even the few big solidarity bills, dimes and cents he carried, everything was gone.
In that hunting bag, there were about ten kilograms of placer gold that he had found during these days.
The Oroqen horse is still there, tethered to the side and eating grass, as well as the slingshot I got from Lu Lu.
Until this moment, his heart suddenly felt extremely cold.
He knew that he was being plotted against. This was not only a soft robbery, but also a darker method.
At this moment, he regretted extremely why he had come all the way to this place and lost everything he got in the blink of an eye.
The only thing he was thankful for was that he didn't have his neck wiped by anyone. This was also the thing that scared him the most.
He shook his head vigorously, trying to remember the person who sat across from him last night, but his head was completely broken. He knew there was such a person, but he still couldn't remember who it was.
He looked around at a loss, feeling angry and wanting to go back to the town to find out who had done it.
But he rode his horse towards Jinshan Town for a while and stopped again.
Fear suppressed his anger after all. He didn't know how he could kill someone if he found him in such a defenseless state, and he might even send him to death.
He finally understood what Lao Huang said and why Lao Huang couldn't leave Huma.
Probably the only difference is that he also knows about the placer gold veins hidden deep in the mountains that no one has discovered.
Huma can't come back anymore, so he should go back honestly and find some placer gold. As long as he brings it back, everything will be back to him.
So, he put down the reins and rode back along the road. When he saw a stall selling pancakes and steamed buns on the roadside, he was heartbroken and jumped off the horse: "Give me twenty steamed buns and twenty pancakes!"
The stall owner is a woman. When a customer comes to her door and she buys so much at once, she naturally greets her with a smile and warmly greets her: "Wait a moment... I'll fill it for you right away!"
The woman quickly loaded up what he wanted and handed it over: "Six dollars!"
Chen Xiuqing grabbed the bag, got on the horse, shouted as he rode, and galloped away.
When the woman saw this, she immediately yelled and chased after him.
But she could not catch up with the horse, and soon she could no longer see Chen Xiuqing's shadow, so she could only return to the stall with a sad face.
At this moment, four more people walked next to the stall.
The leader looked at the direction Chen Xiuqing was leaving, then at the stall, and handed the woman a big solidarity note: "That's my brother, I'll give you the money, don't look for it, and don't make any noise!"
The woman was stunned for a moment, then quickly took the large piece of paper with a smile and put it in her pocket: "I promise you won't say anything!" Then she watched a few people quickly follow her away.
…
Lu Lu, Zhao Yongke and others went deep into the forest from Hualagan. It was difficult to find the traces after a long time, but they still saw the horse hoof prints left on the edge of the swamp where the two brothers were stuck in the quagmire.
This discovery surprised all four of them.
One by one, they rushed on their way until they reached the Jingou. They saw the firewood pile that had long been extinguished by the river beach, and the birch bark set up on the river beach to divert water for gold mining.
Yuanbao and the other dogs sniffed around and quickly found Chen Xiuqing's gold mining tools and roe deer skin mattress hidden in the bushes. They immediately determined that Chen Xiuqing had been here.
But after looking around for a long time, I didn't find Chen Xiuqing. I just saw a discarded flashlight on the ground. Then I looked at the surrounding traces and found the footprints of Chen Xiuqing riding away.
"The things are still here, he must have gone out!" Zhao Yongke said: "Looking at the situation, it should be in the direction of Tahe, and the traces should be from yesterday."
After continuous long journeys, eating and sleeping were not stable, and several people looked tired.
"He should come back... should we wait here?" Zhang Shaofeng asked in a low voice.
Lu Lu shook his head: "But when we came here, we asked in Tahe Town, Xiufeng Town and Walagan Forest Farm, but no one saw it... Let's follow the footprints and look for it!"
The group of people, led by Zhao Yongke, who was the best at tracking, followed the horse hoof prints left in the forest when Chen Xiuqing left. They only found about a kilometer away when Zhao Yongke stopped and said, "The direction has changed!
"
Lu Lu, who was following closely behind, stepped forward and took a look, his brows suddenly furrowed: "This is the direction of Huma...fuck!"
Almost as soon as he saw the direction of the footprints, Lu Lu's mind immediately flashed back to Chen Xiuqing's curiosity and excitement when he was listening to Lao Huang talking about his past in Xinglonggou, and how he wanted to let Lu Lu
Lu Lu couldn't help but cursed those words that led him to Jinshan Town to see the world.
Chen Xiuqing must have found some placer gold here.
Taking the placer gold towards Huma, who knows what he could do?
When Liang Kangbo and Zhang Shaofeng saw this situation, they also sighed.
Humana is a place full of variables because of the presence of gold. Things suddenly become more complicated.
"Let's go, looking at it like this, we really can't wait here. We have to go to Huma to look for it... I hope we can meet him on the way." Zhang Shaofeng said softly.
Zhao Yongke didn't say much, just rode on his horse and led the way.
This is a journey of at least two hundred kilometers. After days of tossing, people, horses and dogs are all very tired, especially people, who can be said to be mentally and physically exhausted.
When Lu Lu and others arrived at Huma, it was already dark.
I didn't meet Chen Xiuqing along the way, and at this time, Jinshan Town had already ended the bustle of feasting and feasting after dark and had become quiet.
"It's hard to find accommodation in the town at this time. Let's just spend the night outside and go into the town tomorrow morning to explore."
Lu Lu chose a piece of land outside the town and set up a tent with Liang Kangbo, while Zhao Yongke and Zhang Shaofeng found firewood, built a fire, and baked pancakes bought in Tahe.
When the pancakes were hot, he handed one to several people, and they all bit into them silently.
The night passed quickly, and early in the morning, Lu Lu left Zhao Yongke here looking at the tents, horses, ingots, and the semi-automatic rifle that Lu Lu also left behind.
Horses and dogs both need rest.
Entering the town is different from the mountains and forests. Carrying a semi-automatic is too conspicuous and can easily attract the attention of others, which may cause other troubles.
At least it was broad daylight, so he wouldn't commit murder on the street, and it wouldn't be as naked as at night.
The only things they carry with them are knives that can be easily hidden in their sleeves.
All the way into the town, Lu Lu and others looked for people and asked everywhere.
It took me a long time to get a general idea in a restaurant. He was very strong, riding an Oroqen horse, and his body shape and appearance basically matched.
Lu Lu was completely sure that Chen Xiuqing had been to this restaurant and had eaten here.
"Then do you know where he went?"
At the critical moment, the shopkeeper refused to say anything, so Lu Lu had to take out a big dough stick and put it on the counter.
The shopkeeper glanced at the money on the counter, indifferent.
Lu Lu added two more.
At this time, the shopkeeper immediately changed his face, with a smile on his face. He put away the three big sheets and motioned for Lu Lu to come closer.
Lu Lu leaned over and listened to the shopkeeper whispering in his ear: "That boy was drunk that night, and then someone he seemed to know came and was taken away. However, according to rumors, someone saw him the next morning
When he arrived, the semi-automatic and hunting bag he was carrying were gone, but the horse was left with him. As for where he went after that, I don’t know.”
Someone you seem to know?
Lu Lu frowned slightly.
In this place, the only one I could consider acquainted with was Lao Huang. As for the Oroqen people on the other side of the Tahe River, they wouldn't come here for nothing.
Then there are the group of robbers that Lu Lu encountered when he left Huma and went into the mountains to look for minerals. This is what Lu Lu is most worried about. If he falls into the hands of these people, he may not get any good results.
Judging from the situation, Chen Xiuqing was just robbed. It seemed that her life was not threatened, nor did she look like the robbers.
"Shopkeeper, who took him away?"
Lu Lu asked in a low voice. Seeing that the shopkeeper refused to speak, Lu Lu put down three more unity cards on the counter.
"That man is about the same age as you. He also led three other people. He had guys on hand. He helped settle the bill and took the people away... For the sake of the money, I will give you a piece of gossip.
After town, go to the roadside stall and ask, that's all I can tell you."
After Lu Lu heard this, he turned around and left the restaurant.
In the restaurant, customers are being raped and selling all kinds of gossip. No one will explain things clearly to avoid causing trouble. Lu Lu understands this.
"Let's go to the roadside stalls outside the town and ask." Lu Lu led the way out of Jinshan Town and went to the shacks and stalls set up on the road leading to Xinglonggou. This was in the direction of Xinglonggou.
Yes, gold diggers don't want to go all the way to the town on weekdays, so they will choose some nearby stalls to improve their lives.
White flour steamed buns, pancakes and the like are already considered good products compared to corn, millet and the like.
These days, there are very few people who can really enjoy meat every meal.
"It sounds like he was robbed. Just based on his age, I can't guess who did it." Liang Kangbo shook his head and sighed.
"Why was the horse left behind when everything on his body was robbed?" Zhang Shaofeng was a little puzzled.
"Let me ask you, when everything is robbed from you and you are unable to move forward, what will you choose?"
Lu Lu glanced at the two of them and asked in a lowered voice.
"They were all robbed. If I had to go back, I can't stay in this damn place!" Liang Kangbo said.
"There is also a possibility that if you go back and continue gold mining, you can become rich in a short time!" Zhang Shaofeng had another idea.
"When that calf came, he must have brought a lot of placer gold. He was robbed by others. Naturally, he saw the placer gold. In Xinglonggou, it is impossible to have so much placer gold at once. People guessed that he discovered the gold sand vein. It was
It's a matter of course.
The horse was deliberately left for him, just to let him lead the way to find the gold sand veins as soon as possible. There is a high possibility that he will go back to pan for gold.
Of course, we don’t rule out the possibility that this kid will wake up and choose to leave!”
Lu Lu was also very confused, and finally sighed: "Those two pieces of information can only mean that he is being targeted. Also, if you find the roadside stall that the shopkeeper mentioned, you may know where he went.
!We also have to be extremely careful.”
