In November of this year, Lu Yun and Su Jiadong arrived in Yangon.

Su Jiadong doesn't like Myanmar and prefers to live a modern and civilized urban life in Hong Kong. Although Yangon is also modern, it always seems to be inferior to Hong Kong.Seeing him chirping, Lu Yun told him to stay at home, but he still followed like a big dazed bird.

In Yangon, Lu Yun met Master Sheng.

Master Sheng was born dignified and gentle, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and his black hair was combed meticulously.Because I have lived in Myanmar for a long time, I do as the Romans do. I wear a double-breasted blouse on top, a silk embroidered train on the bottom, and a pair of leather slippers. I walk in mud and water, and my white ankles sometimes appear and disappear at the hem of the train.

In all fairness, Master Sheng has a decent image, but Lu Yun has little affection for him because Master Sheng has a mysterious background and is a bit spooky.Master Sheng can speak several foreign languages, and any foreign language makes him speak with a southern accent, and when he speaks Chinese, people can't tell where he is from.Lu Yun has always been very wary of such characters.

The venue of the jade auction is very simple, and the auction itself is not very formal. It not only sells expensive finished jadeite, but also sells various rough stones.Lu Yunyun and Master Sheng came over and watched from their seats first, then Lu Yun said after a while: "Master, I can tell the good from the bad of the second- and third-class materials; but for the real old pit glass, I can tell Not sure."

Master Sheng spoke Mandarin with a Yunnan accent: "Let's take a look first, and then we'll talk when we're sure. Anyway, there are no shortages in the store, so it doesn't matter if you buy it or not this time."

The two of them had the same thought, so they just watched and said nothing at this time, and when the auction was halfway through, Lu Yun had an idea in his mind, and then he raised his cards to bid for a few pieces of high-quality jadeite wool.

At the end, a half-processed emerald was placed on the front table, the green color was rich and bright.Lu Yunyun and Master Sheng discussed it for a long time, and finally decided to buy it - it looks expensive now, but after the actual processing is completed, it may turn into a rare treasure, and then it can reach a sky-high price.

Lu Yunyun had vision, and others were not stupid.After some competition, a Mr. Wu Sulun offered a high price of [-] old dong. Lu Yun knew that Wu Sulun was the son of Major General Wu Gang, so he gave up right away, although he was very powerful and overwhelmed the other party.

Master Sheng called it a pity, but Lu Yun knew the truth of "a strong dragon does not overwhelm a snake".Those few pieces of high-quality jadeite wool are already in vain. Good materials are becoming more and more rare now, and they are almost completely unavailable in the general market.

Master Sheng sighed, as if wishing he could force Lu Yun to snatch that piece of jade back; Lu Yun saw his urgency and suspiciousness, and became more and more calm and stable.Master Sheng has some skills, can be used, but cannot be trusted; Lu Yun decided to just treat him as a gun.

After the auction ended, Lu Yun found his leisure again, and went to Master Sheng's house to drink beer that night.Master Sheng rented a spacious house and lived alone, with only a little yellow dog as companion.On a hot day, Master Sheng took off his blouse and train, took off his glasses, squinted his short-sighted eyes, and ate curry crab with open teeth and claws. Lu Yun sat opposite, also shirtless, stuffing sticks into his mouth stick chicken.Su Jiadong was the most refined of the three, he only took a sip of beer, and then held back a belch with great difficulty - ever since he understood human affairs, he knew how to talk about civilization, because firstly, Lu Yun taught well, He often beat him; second, he knew that he was unpopular if he was stupid, and if he became rougher, he would probably be even more unpopular.

Seeing that Su Jiadong would not eat it, Master Sheng personally picked a big crab and put it in front of him: "Eat it."

Su Jiadong agreed, but didn't know what to do; so Master Sheng grabbed the crab and broke it in half, and said, "Eat it."

Su Jiadong lowered his head, grabbed a crab leg and put it in his mouth to chew; Lu Yun didn't pay attention, raised his head and drank a glass of beer, and then said to Master Sheng: "I plan to set off tomorrow and go to the north."

Master Sheng was stunned: "North? The north is too chaotic, and there is a war."

Lu Yun lowered his head and smiled, without explaining the reason.It's also good to have a little secret in my heart, as if there is a piece of sugar stuck in my throat, no one else can see it, only I know.The candy slowly melts, full of sweetness.

Su Jiadong looked at Lu Yun with a crab leg in his mouth, his expression was very dull, he knew in his heart that it was broken this time, and the young master was throwing a fit again!

At this moment, Lu Yun suddenly asked Su Jiadong: "Are you going? If you don't want to go, you can wait here for me when I come back."

Su Jiadong blinked his eyes, and didn't know how to answer for a moment—of course he didn't want to leave Lu Yun, but this trip really bored him.

Master Sheng has become a superfluous existence. Without Master Sheng, Su Jiadong would throw away his crab legs and beg Lu Yunyun not to leave—although Lu Yun often adopts an iron-fisted policy towards him, if he begs pitifully enough, the other party will occasionally Relentless.

Lu Yunyun knew that Su Jiadong was a bit delicate, so he said loudly: "Otherwise, you can stay with the master for a few days, and I will come back after a while. I won't keep you waiting, okay?"

Before Su Jiadong could answer, Master Sheng found the glasses and put them on, and rushed to answer with full eyes: "No problem!"

Lu Yun really didn't take Su Jiadong with him.

With a big bulging travel bag on his back, he boarded the train alone and headed to the north.

When the train reached the terminal, he changed to a coach.The long-distance bus also arrived, and he walked into the nearest village and took a horse-drawn carriage into the mountains.

He single-handedly protected the big travel bag, and inexplicably got fleas.This didn't make him feel hard, his young body contained infinite strength and emotion.

This time he came in a hurry, he didn't get a short-footed horse to travel, so he could only follow a caravan shamelessly - the caravan was sent by Mr. Duan Jiajun to go to Thailand, and Lu Yunyun followed like this The advantage of a group of people marching in a hurry is that it can ensure safety, but the disadvantage is that the soles of their shoes are about to be worn through.

After walking desperately for several days, he finally approached Xiao Hei's village.At this time, the big travel bag is already heavier than the lead weight.

Lu Yun wrapped the travel bag with a broken straw mat, tied it with a long rope, dragged it on the ground, kowtowed every step of the way, and could smell the sweat from the collar when he sniffed.

Seeing that there were still a few miles to go, Lu Yun couldn't hold on anymore, so he sat down on the floor to rest.Raising his hand to pat the big travel bag, he felt quite complacent - all the things inside were for Xiao Hei!

After unscrewing the kettle and taking two sips, he took a breath, got up and continued on his way.He had already made up his mind in Hong Kong, this time he had to bring something to Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei was so pitiful that he had nothing.

This time, Lu Yun walked a long way in one go, and then stopped suddenly.

He saw a group of soldiers in brown uniforms passing by in the distance - they were obviously not in the same group as Xiao Hei, but in this place, it was difficult to get along so closely if they were not in the same group.

Lu Yun hesitated for a moment, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, wondering if something happened to Xiao Hei?Is this not his sphere of influence?

Lu Yun pondered for a moment, then picked the thickest tree around, took out the small shovel in his backpack and dug a hole hastily, and buried his travel bag under the tree.

Hiding a pistol and a full magazine on his body, he held a short saber in his hand and tentatively walked forward.He sneaked forward for another two miles. He climbed up a tree awkwardly, looked forward from a high position, and found that Xiao Hei's stockade was still there, but all the houses were in ruins, as if they had been bombarded .Green smoke curled up from several embers, and there was no one inside, it was a dead village.

Faced with this situation, Lu Yun took a deep breath and tried his best to tell himself not to panic.
