At any rate, he was still a little sane. After Chen Xiuqing froze, even though his heart was extremely impulsive, he still tore off the hand of this woman who made him somewhat disgusted, and led the horse to leave in a hurry.
"Tch...you still pretend to be like that!"
The woman giggled behind her, and followed again.
However, Chen Xiuqing didn't dare to stay any longer, her heart was beating wildly and she walked faster and faster, dejectedly, she finally got rid of the woman.
He drilled in the intricate alleys for a while, and found that there were similar situations everywhere. After finally returning to the street, it looked like nothing had happened on the street, and the police had already left. He let out a long breath.
After wandering in the street for a while, he was already hungry after a day's driving. He chose a restaurant, tied his horse to the horse-tie stone at the entrance, and went in.
He ordered a few dishes for himself, ordered a bottle of Huma Baijiu, drank it slowly, listened to the nonsense of the people in the restaurant, and looked at the people passing by on the street, and suddenly felt that his life Moisturize.
Thinking of the gold deposit veins in the ditch, he couldn't help laughing. For a moment, his heart was like a wild horse, and he only thought that the days to come would be infinitely beautiful. ring.
As everyone knows, his strange appearance has long been noticed by many people in the restaurant.
In fact, when he entered Jinshan Town, he had already been spotted by many people along the way.
The people who hang out in this place are either slaughtered or slaughtered, and there are quite a few who want to slaughter others.
Even though it is already this year, and the situation outside is changing, but in this place next to the border river, there are still many people who are unscrupulous and full of tricks.
Chen Xiuqing was so drunk that he drank the whole bottle of Huma Baijiu. Even though he could hold a good amount of alcohol, he was unknowingly shaking and his head was in a daze.
At this moment, a person sat across the table.
Chen Xiuqing looked at the man with sleepy eyes for a long time: "Man, you are..." He shook his head and thought hard for a long time, "It looks familiar, where have we met..."
Before finishing speaking, the whole person couldn't sit still, and suddenly lay down on the table, knocking the cups and saucers in front of him, and the empty wine bottle was rolling on the table, and when he fell off the table, he was caught by the man opposite Grab 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... Sigh!"
Seeing that Chen Xiuqing was not moving, he got up and called the restaurant owner, calculated the price of a table of food and drinks, and then helped Chen Xiuqing out of the restaurant.
There were quite a few people in the restaurant, and they all followed after seeing this.
But when I looked outside, there were still three people waiting, all of whom were carrying guys, and they retreated tactfully.
The next morning, when Chen Xiu woke up, she found that she was sleeping in the field.
The semi-automatic is gone, the ammunition pouch is gone, the hunting bag on his back is gone, and even the few big union cards, dime notes and pennies he carried on his body are gone.
In the hunting bag, there were about ten catties of gold dust he had found these days.
The Oroqen horse was still there, tied to the side and grazing, and the slingshot obtained from Lu Lu.
Until this moment, his heart suddenly became extremely cold.
He knew that he had been calculated by others.This is not just a soft grab, there are even darker methods.
At this moment, he regretted so much why he came all the way to this place and threw away everything he got in the blink of an eye.
The only good thing is that no one wiped his neck, which is what he fears the most.
He shook his head vigorously, trying to recall the person who sat across from him last night, but his head was broken. He knew that there was such a person, but he still couldn't remember who it was.
He looked around in a daze, angry in his heart, and wanted to go back to the town to find out who did it.
But he rode his horse towards Jinshan Town for a while, and stopped again.
Afraid that he still suppressed his anger after all, he didn't know, with his defenseless appearance, what he could do to people if he found it, and it was very likely that he would send him to death.
Now he understands what Lao Huang said, and also understands why Lao Huang can't get out of Huma.
Probably the only difference is that he also knows the gold placer veins hidden deep in the mountains that no one has discovered.
Huma can't come back anymore, so he hastened to go back honestly and pan for some gold placer, as long as he brings it back, everything will be there again.
So, he threw down the rein and rode back along the road. He saw a stall selling pancakes and steamed buns by the side of the road. He jumped off his horse and said, "Pack me twenty steamed buns and twenty pancakes!"
The stall owner was a woman. When a customer came to her door and she bought so much at once, she naturally greeted her with a smile and greeted her warmly: "Wait a moment... I'll fill it for you right away!"
The woman quickly packed up what he wanted and handed it over: "Six yuan!"
Chen Xiuqing snatched the bag, got on the horse, yelled, and galloped.
Seeing this, the woman immediately yelled and chased after her.
But she couldn't catch up with the horse, and soon she couldn't even see Chen Xiuqing's shadow, so she could only return to the stall with a sad face.
At this moment, four more people walked by the booth.
The leader looked at the direction Chen Xiuqing was leaving, then at the stall, and handed the woman a big solidarity card: "That's my brother, I'll give you the money, don't look for it, and don't say anything!"
The woman was stunned for a moment, and quickly took the sheet of Great Unity with a smile on her face, and put it in her pocket: "I promise you won't say anything!" Then she watched several people follow and leave quickly.
……
Lu Lu, Zhao Yongke and others went deep into the forest from Waragan. It has been a long time, and the traces are hard to find, but on the edge of the swamp where the two brothers fell into the quagmire, they still saw the horseshoe prints left behind.
This discovery surprised the four of them.
One by one, they hurried on their way until they arrived at the golden ditch. They saw the piles of firewood that had already been extinguished by the river beach, and they also saw the birch bark erected on the river beach to divert water for gold panning.
Yuan Bao and his dogs sniffed around, and quickly found Chen Xiuqing's gold digging tools and roe deer skin mattress hidden in the bushes, and immediately confirmed that Chen Xiuqing had been here.
But after looking around for a long time, he didn't find Chen Xiuqing's figure, but only saw the discarded flashlight on the ground, and then looked around for traces, and found the footprints of Chen Xiuqing leaving on horseback.
"Things are still here, he should 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 traveling long distances one after another, they couldn't eat or sleep well, and several of them were tired.
"He should come back... shall we wait here?" Zhang Shaofeng asked in a low voice.
Lu Lu shook his head: "But when we came here, we inquired about it in Tahe Town, Xiufeng Town and Walagan Forest Farm, but no one saw it... Let's follow our footprints to find 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, and they only found them about a kilometer away. Zhao Yongke stopped and said, "The direction has changed! "
Lu Lu, who followed closely behind, took a look and frowned: "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 cursing out the words that led him to Jinshan Town to meet the world.
Chen Xiuqing must have found some gold dust here.
Take the gold dust and walk in the direction of Huma, who knows what he can do?
Seeing this situation, Liang Kangbo and Zhang Shaofeng also sighed.
What kind of place is Humana? It is a place full of variables because of the presence of gold.Things suddenly got more complicated.
"Let's go, look 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 on the way." Zhang Shaofeng said in a low voice.
Zhao Yongke didn't say much, he just rode his horse and led the way.
This is a distance of at least [-] kilometers. After days of tossing, people, horses and dogs are already very tired, especially people, who can be called physically and mentally exhausted.
When Lu Lu and others arrived at Huma, it was already dark.
They didn't meet Chen Xiuqing along the way, and Jinshan Town at this time had already ended the bustle of feasting and feasting after nightfall, and became quiet.
"At this time, it is difficult to find accommodation in the town. Let's just make do with the night outside and go into the town tomorrow morning to inquire."
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.
The pancakes were hot, and he handed one to each of them, and they all chewed silently.
The night passed quickly, and early in the morning, Lu Lu left Zhao Yongke here to watch the tent, horses, and ingots, and they were also left behind by Lu Lu, as well as the semi-automatic rifle he was carrying.
Both horses and dogs need rest.
Into the town, different mountains and forests, carrying a semi-automatic is too conspicuous, it is easy to attract the attention of others, and may cause other troubles.
At any rate, it was broad daylight, so it wasn't enough to commit crimes in the street, and it didn't appear naked like at night.
The only thing they carry with them is a knife that is easy to hide in their cuffs.
All the way into the town, Lu Lu and the others looked for people everywhere and asked everywhere.
It took a long time to get a general idea from a restaurant. He looks very strong and rides an Oroqen horse, and his body and appearance basically match.
Lu Lu was completely sure that Chen Xiuqing had been to this restaurant and had dinner here.
"And do you know where he went?"
At the critical moment, the shopkeeper refused to speak, so Lu Lu had no choice but to take out a card and put it on the counter.
The shopkeeper glanced at the money on the counter, indifferent.
Lu Lu added two more cards.
At this moment, the shopkeeper immediately changed his face, smiled all over his face, put away the three big unions, and motioned Lu Lu to get closer.
Lu Lu went over to him, and heard the shopkeeper whisper in his ear: "That kid was drunk that night, and then he came to someone he seemed to know, and was taken away. However, according to gossip, someone saw it the next morning. It turned out that the semi-automatic and hunting bag he was carrying were all gone, but the horse was left behind for him, as for where he went later, I don’t know.”
Someone you seem to know?
Lu Lu frowned slightly.
In this area, the only person who can be regarded as acquainted is Lao Huang. As for the Oroqen people on the other side of the Tahe River, they will not come here when they have nothing to do.
Then there is the group of robbers who encountered when he left Huma to go to the mountains to look for mines. This is what Lu Lu is most worried about.
Judging from the situation, Chen Xiuqing was just robbed, and it seemed that her life was not threatened, nor did she look like the group of robbers.
"Boss, who took him away?"
Lu Lu asked in a low voice, seeing that the shopkeeper refused to speak, Lu Lu put down three more cards of Great Unity on the counter.
"That man is about the same age as you, and he is leading three other people, all of whom have guys on hand. He helped settle the bill and took them away... For the sake of the money, I will give you a piece of gossip. After the town, go to the roadside stand and ask, that's all I can tell you."
After listening, Lu Lu turned around and left the restaurant.
The restaurant is killing customers and selling all kinds of gossip. No one will explain things clearly so as not to cause disasters. This Lu Lu can understand.
"Let's go, 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 is in the direction of Xinglonggou. Yes, gold diggers don't want to go all the way to the town on weekdays, and they will choose some nearby stalls to improve their lives.
White flour steamed buns, pancakes and the like are already considered good things compared to corn and millet.
These days, there are very few who can really make a meal full of meat.
"It sounds like he should have been robbed. Just by his age, he can't guess who did it." Liang Kangbo shook his head and sighed.
"Why are the horses left behind when everything on him was robbed?" Zhang Shaofeng was a little puzzled.
"Let me ask, what would you choose when your body was completely robbed and you couldn't move an inch?"
Lu Lu glanced at the two of them and asked in a lowered voice.
"They were all robbed. If I must go back, I can't stay in this ghost place!" Liang Kangbo said.
"There is also a possibility, go back and continue to dig for gold, and make yourself rich in a short time!" Zhang Shaofeng had another idea.
"When the calf came, he must have brought a lot of placer gold and was robbed. Naturally, he saw the placer gold. In Xinglonggou, it is impossible to have so much gold placer all at once. People guessed that he discovered the gold placer veins, yes A matter of course.
He deliberately left horses for him, just to let him lead the way to find the golden sand veins earlier.There's a good chance he'll go back to panning for gold.
Of course, it doesn't rule out the possibility that this kid will wake up and choose to leave! "
Lu Lu also had a huge head, and finally sighed: "Those two news can only show that he is being targeted, and if you find the roadside stall that the shopkeeper mentioned, you may know where he went We also have to be extremely careful."
