Before leaving, Wu Dongfang threw a grenade into the cave. After a loud noise, the cave collapsed. Naturally, a grenade was not so powerful. He had collected more than 20 grenades before, but he only brought five with him. Everything that fell down was in the cave.
The rice bucket weighs about seventy or eighty kilograms. Together with gold, silver, pearls, jade, guns and ammunition, he is now carrying more than one hundred and twenty kilograms. In addition, there are injuries on his legs, making it very difficult to walk.
But strenuous effort does not mean walking slowly. Wu Dongfang adjusted his breathing and kept moving forward at a constant speed. Life is about walking a long distance with a heavy load. The more things you carry, the more strenuous it will be to walk. But there are always some things in life that cannot be abandoned, no matter how strenuous it is. Take it with you on the road.
The mountain road was difficult to walk. Wu Dongfang was soaked in sweat after walking for three or five miles, and his physical strength was seriously exhausted. But he kept walking forward. Whenever he couldn't walk, he would touch the rice bucket's head. Is it possible to wait for four thousand years? Can't I get a whole corpse back
For one hour, two hours, Wu Dongfang walked from noon to sunset. He didn't know exactly how far he walked, nor did he know when he stopped, because he fainted from exhaustion while walking.
I woke up again in the middle of the night. There was silence in the mountains. There was a small river not far away. This was the upper reaches of Mingwan's fishing river. This river did not completely disappear. Instead, it changed its course to the east, and the water flow was much smaller than before. .
Wu Dongfang walked to the river and leaned over to drink water. He had a few bottles of mineral water with him, but they were for emergency use.
After drinking water, Wu Dongfang returned to the original place, put on his backpack, picked up his rice pail again, and waded northward. The purpose of wading was to eliminate the smell and avoid being chased by wolves and dogs.
At dawn, Wu Dongfang crossed the river, reached the west bank, entered the forest, and moved towards a high mountain in the northwest.
There were no roads in the mountain, and there were thorns and shrubs everywhere. It took him a whole morning to climb from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside. When he reached the mountainside, Wu Dongfang began to look for a suitable location, and finally selected a cemetery in Yanglu, which is on the upper side of the mountain. There are several tall trees here, which are covered by big trees. There are few shrubs below, and the view is very wide. From here, you can see the jungle where Fan Tong was born, and you can also see the area where the village where Ming Yue lived.
Since he didn't have the tools at hand, it was very hard to dig the grave. Even though the digging was very hard, he didn't do it half-heartedly. It took him a whole day to dig three meters down the two tombs and bury Fantong and Ming Yue respectively.
The graves of Fan Tong and Ming Yue were five meters apart. The reason why he made this arrangement was to leave his own place between the two. The deaths of Ming Yue and Fan Tong were such a huge blow to him that he was completely discouraged and no longer thought about returning to the team. , I will come back here after finishing my business.
Sometimes letting go of something doesn’t feel relaxing, on the contrary, it feels empty.
After burying Ming Yue and Fan Tong, Wu Dongfang set out on the road, pulling grass from the forest and heading west. According to the clues left by Ming Yue, it seemed that Xin Tong's hiding place should be at the junction of the Fire Tribe and the Tu Tribe. It took too long to move from the mountains. , we can only go out first and use the transportation outside to go around.
Six hours later, he arrived near the border free trade zone, but he did not go there immediately because he was carrying a submachine gun and would be discovered immediately as soon as he went out.
After waiting in the forest for three hours, Wu Dongfang went down the mountain after dark, grabbed a piece of clothing from outside a retail house at the foot of the mountain, wrapped a submachine gun, and entered the city from the trail.
There are Chinese and Burmese people in the free trade zone located on the border. China does not produce jade, all jade comes from Myanmar, and this is one of the two major ways for Burmese jade to enter China. There are many rich people doing the jade business, and rich people open All are good cars.
During the three hours of waiting for dark in the mountains, Wu Dongfang had already studied the general route. He couldn't take a plane or a train now, so the fastest way was to drive there by himself.
There was a luxury car parked in front of a jade shop. After observing the surrounding environment, Wu Dongfang walked into the shop and closed the rolling shutter door.
The shop owner was on the phone when he saw Wu Dongfang closing the door. He vaguely felt that something was wrong, but the man was very calm and said to the other end of the phone, "Business is coming" and put down the phone.
"Little brother, are you in trouble?" the shop owner tried to calm down.
Wu Dongfang didn't answer, but walked to the counter and picked up the phone and took a look and found that the call had been hung up.
"Does the car at the door belong to you?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"No, it's a customer who stopped here." The shopkeeper's eyes were focused on the clothes in his hand. The lights in the store were very bright, and he had already guessed that there was a gun wrapped in the clothes.
Wu Dongfang glanced at the shopkeeper and took out two gold bricks and a few jade stones from his backpack, "Are they enough?"
"Enough." The shop owner immediately took out the car keys from his pocket. Rich people may not be good people, but rich people are definitely smart people, because it is difficult for fools to make money.
"If you don't talk nonsense, no one will die." Wu Dongfang took the car keys and carried his backpack out.
"Little brother, I have 20,000 yuan in cash here for you to use on the road." The shop owner took out two wads of RMB from under the counter.
Smart people are smart people. Wu Dongfang took away the two stacks of RMB and left another gold brick.
"The gas tank is full, there is water in the trunk, and there is a box of fruit." The shop owner followed.
"Thank you, please go back." Wu Dongfang opened the car door and placed the submachine gun under the passenger seat.
"There is a button inside that can rotate the license plate. There are three pairs in total." The shop owner pointed to the armrest box.
Wu Dongfang got into the car and grabbed something from his backpack. When he saw it was a grenade, he stuffed it back and gave it to the shopkeeper with a handful of gold and silver jewelry.
"Have a nice trip." The shop owner waved goodbye.
Wu Dongfang chose this car for a reason. A good car can run fast. Even if he escapes in violation of traffic regulations, the traffic police will not be able to catch him.
He started speeding all the way, speeding all the way from Yunnan to Guangxi overnight. After dawn, he checked into the hotel with the driver's license from the car. He slept until two o'clock in the afternoon, got up and went out, bought clothes, and then drove around the city. chaos.
There are some fortune-telling places in the city, euphemistically called Zhouyi Research Institute. Let’s not say whether these guys can tell fortunes, at least they can calculate time.
Wu Dongfang told the time calculated by Mrs. Laoqi, and the fortune teller began to compare the dates from online searches. Wu Dongfang sat on the sofa drinking tea and waiting.
Ten minutes later, Wu Dongfang stood up and put down a few bills, "No need."
"Soon, soon." The fortune teller hurriedly persuaded him to stay.
Wu Dongfang didn't stop. When he went out, he held a newspaper in his hand. There was a news in the newspaper, saying that a rare spectacle of eight stars in a row would appear in half a month.
He needs to go to three places within half a month. These three places are located in the north, south and east respectively. Time is very tight and there can be no delay.
After Ming Yue woke up midway, he went to the hiding place of Fei Xuan and others, and re-identified their hiding place. The place names of the Yuan Dynasty can be easily found in modern times. After determining the approximate location, Wu Dongfang went straight to Xintong The area where the hideout is located.
Running all the way again, Xin Tong's hiding place was located in Qiannan, Guizhou. He arrived at the end of the land. According to the clues left by Ming Yue, he found the location marked on the map that evening. He did not expect that this place turned out to be a village. , the village is very small, with only a few dozen households, and is the most remote mountain village in the town.
The country's new rural construction has brought good news to this mountain village located in the mountains. Roads have been built in the mountains, and cars can drive directly to the entrance of the village.
There is a village monument at the entrance of the village, "Xinjiazhai."
Very few people usually come here, but his arrival attracted the children in the village to come and watch. Wu Dongfang took out fruits from the trunk and gave them to these children, and got a clue from them that most of the people in this village were named Xin.
Wu Dongfang determined the location and distance based on the surrounding terrain, and combined with the clues mentioned by Ming Yue, found the suspected location. This location is located behind the village. It is a cellar-shaped building. Half of the building is underground, and the building is exposed on the ground. It is an architectural style of the 1950s, made of stone, and there is a five-pointed star made of cement on the top of the door.
This building has been abandoned for many years and has no door. Wu Dongfang walked in with a flashlight and found that the space inside was not large. Judging from the shape of the interior, it should be a product of learning from Dazhai. It was a unique ammonia station of that era. .
"Fei Xuan, you have hurt me." Wu Dongfang was about to cry but had no tears. Although it is still unclear what happened to Xin Tong, it is certain that something happened to Xin Tong, because this is where Xin Tong was hiding before. .
There were very few outsiders in the village. Wu Dongfang wandered around the village and attracted the attention of the villagers. The villagers informed the village chief, who brought people over and blocked Wu Dongfang in the cellar.
"Who are you?" asked the village chief.
"From the tourism bureau." Wu Dongfang said casually.
"What are you doing in our village?" the village chief asked.
"Inspect the environment and see if we can develop tourism projects and attract investment for you." Wu Dongfang was perfunctory again.
"Oh, why did you come at night?" the village chief asked.
"We are very busy at work. Are you the village chief here?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"Yes." said the village chief.
Wu Dongfang nodded, "Tonight you gather the elders in the village to sort out the history of Xinjiazhai, and go to the countryside to find me tomorrow morning. I will also go to other villages. This time there will be more than one billion in tourism support, and I have to visit a few alternative villages."
When the village chief heard that there was support, his eyes immediately lit up. Rural cadres have little education, but no matter how illiterate they are, they know that support means giving money.
Seeing Wu Dongfang was about to leave, the village chief hurriedly stopped him and asked him to sit at the team headquarters.
Naturally, Wu Dongfang would not refuse and followed the village chief to the team headquarters. The village chief talked with him while the others went to invite the elderly in the village.
The village chief is not a fool. He must first determine whether Wu Dongfang is a liar. Although Wu Dongfang is very confused at the moment, it is still easy to fool a village cadre.
After confirming Wu Dongfang's identity, the village chief began to introduce the beautiful environment of the village and the surrounding tourism resources. He focused on the ammonia water station. It was a magical place with constant temperature all year round. The temperature in the cellar was always maintained at fifteen degrees, very cool.
Elderly people from the village came one after another, and one of them brought the genealogy. The village chief showed the genealogy to Wu Dongfang. Wu Dongfang took the genealogy and spread it out. This genealogy might have been nailed to the wall, and there were rusty thumbtacks on the four corners. trace.
The top line of the family tree clearly reads: Great-grandmother Xin...
