? Boom! The muzzle flashed, and the next moment the bazooka in the center turned into a ball of fire. Raging flames exploded in all directions, and blood and fire dyed half of the sky red.
Xu Qing closed his eyes and withdrew the sniper rifle, then stepped back. The shot just now claimed at least ten lives. Although he could not smell the pungent smell of blood, his mood was extremely low.
The two Burmese men beside him also withdrew. One of them, a tall and lanky man, gave Xu Qing a thumbs up and said, "Brother, your marksmanship is good."
Xu Qing smiled bitterly and said nothing more. He stared blankly at the smoke rising in the distance. He was now full of thoughts of returning to his country. At this moment, he deeply realized the value of a peaceful life.
The sparse gunshots gradually died down, and a long branch protruded diagonally from the dense forest opposite, with a white cloth dangling from the end. Then a Karen man with a thin face but a bloated body emerged from the woods.
He came out and walked towards the mine while swinging the branch.
Guo Sangkun smiled coldly and waved his hands to signal everyone not to shoot. He wanted to see what the Karen people were up to.
"Brother, the Karen people 'stealed the elephant.'" A Burmese man on the top of the mountain happily reported the good news to Xu Qing in jerky Mandarin.
Xu Qing frowned slightly, stood up, walked to the edge of the mountain and leaned over to take a look. Sure enough, there was a guy holding a white flag walking quickly towards this side. Could it be that the Karen people were beaten to the point of losing their temper and came to make peace? No, this
The guy's head is completely out of proportion to his body... His eyelids suddenly twitched when he thought of this, and his eyes swept over the Karen man a hundred meters away.
"Quick! Get the gun..." Xu Qing turned around and shouted, his eyes widening.
The two Burmese men behind him looked at each other in surprise. Xu Qing had already turned around and rushed over to pick up a sniper rifle. He threw the gun and the man to the ground and quickly locked onto the Karen man who was walking faster and faster.
Click, click, click - a series of tongues of fire burst out from the dense forest, and all the bullets poured towards the hilltop where Xu Qing was. Almost at the same time, he had pulled the trigger, and his body rolled two meters away.
Boom! Boom! The Karen man holding the white flag was shot in the chest. His whole body turned into a ball of blazing white light, and raindrops of flying shrapnel shot away. Some of them flew hundreds of meters away, grabbing and grabbing.
The sound of nails was driven into the wooden box in front of the mine. Fortunately, no one was injured.
This Karen man who pretended to surrender had at least a dozen high-explosive grenades hanging all over his body. If he were to get close to the mine, the consequences would be disastrous.
Xu Qing rolled to the side and felt a burning pain in his left shoulder. He turned around and saw a patch of moisture oozing from his shoulder. He had just been bitten by a bullet.
The furious Guo Sangkun fired fiercely at the dense forest with a machine gun next to him. Dozens of gun barrels began to roar again, and mortar shells hit the forest like meteors falling into the sky. Unfortunately, it was unknown how many giant trees would be affected innocently.
Xu Qing was too lazy to pay attention to the gunfight below. He picked up the big bag from the fallen tent and waved to the two Burmese men to come over and bandage his wound. Fortunately, the bullet did not damage the muscles and bones, but only opened a blood strip on the scapula muscle.
Damn, just take some medicine and rest for a while.
After bandaging the wounds, the battle at the foot of the mountain was coming to an end. The Karen people who fled into the dense forest had retreated, leaving only hundreds of bloody corpses.
Xu Qing lit a cigarette and sat on the ground smoking it slowly. Although he helped Guo Sangkun defeat the Karen people, he felt a kind of depression in his heart. He didn't even know what the cigarette tasted like in his mouth. He just puffed away one after another.
Mechanically smoked.
The sound of gunfire had long since stopped, and the people in front of the mine were still on guard. The palms holding the guns were slippery with sweat, but no one relaxed the guns in their hands. Dozens of pairs of eyes stared at them without blinking.
That dense forest full of desolation.
The morning passed quickly, and Xu Qing felt a little hungry. He took out some food from his backpack and shared it with the two Burmese people. He also gave each of them a bottle of pure water. Compared with the guys down the mountain who were dry and spitting, they were undoubtedly
It's much stronger.
After finishing lunch, Xu Qing asked the two Burmese men to put up the tent again, got in and took a nap. He was not as nervous as Guo Sangkun, and there was no ambiguity about whether he should eat or sleep.
I don’t know how long time passed. In short, Xu Qing was woken up by Guo Sangkun. When he got out of the tent, he realized that the sun had gone down and the Sang family had already arrived. This mine was completely named Sang.
Guo Sangkun brought the decision made by his father. 20% of the mine's annual income was given to Xu Qing unconditionally, which was equivalent to doubling his salary in disguise. However, Sangden felt that it was all worth it, and he won a
High-quality mineral veins are a steady stream of wealth.
"Now that things are done here, when will you return to Yangon?"
What Xu Qing is most concerned about now is this matter. It is estimated that the public sale is about to end. I wonder how Lao Meng and the others are doing?
Guo Sangkun smiled and said: "Tomorrow, it's too late today, and your treasures will also be transported back tomorrow. Then we will find a way to help you return them to the country."
Xu Qing said: "Can these people transport things out alone?"
More than a dozen of the Burmese people who came with them died when they crossed the swamp, and several more were killed in gun battles with the Karen people. Even if they were full, there were not enough thirty people. There was no way that these people could lift out the twenty or so large wooden boxes.
Guo Sangkun smiled and said: "Of course I have a way. This time, a mine protection team of 200 people came to the house, and they also brought about 20 pack horses. With these things, are you afraid that your treasures won't be able to get out?"
Xu Qing felt happy and said with a smile: "That's great, I'm really tired of staying in this damn place."
Guo Sangkun suddenly sighed and said: "Alas! The jade sale will be over when we go back." He looked a little sad when he said this. The end of the sale means that the two of them will part ways. This friendship has experienced many life and death baptisms.
It was about to come to an end, and the melancholy in his heart was self-evident.
Xu Qing stepped forward and patted Guo Sangkun on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, take me to the mine."
Guo Sangkun nodded in agreement, and the two of them walked down the top of the mountain together. As expected, they saw many guards with guns and live ammunition patrolling around the mine. There was also a temporary fence on the left side of the mountain, with a large group of short-legged draft horses tied inside.
.Just as they approached the mine, the Burmese people who were busy at the side all put down their work and stood aside and bowed to the two of them frequently, which looked very respectful.
"Brother Kun, what are they doing?" Xu Qing felt flattered and could only turn his eyes to Guo Sangkun with doubts on his face.
"Haha! Do you still remember those two shots? All of them think they owe you two lives, how can they be disrespectful?" Guo Sangkun raised his head and burst into laughter, and the corners of his eyes became wet unconsciously.
Xu Qing smiled bitterly and touched his nose and said: "There is no need to bow, let them help make a delicious meal and enjoy the last wild fun!"
