Fufeng Town is not large in area, but has a large population.
Because it is close to the border, the surrounding area is relatively desolate, and people have been concentrated here for a long time.
In addition, this is a place where jade is produced, so there are not many people who come here to do business and hunt for treasures.
Standing at the entrance of the town, Yu Xiaolong looked at the pedestrians and vehicles passing by, secretly thinking that he must find Wang Jiutian.
This time Yu Xiaolong came here with a very determined attitude, because he didn't want to involve his friends anymore.
In the past, friends would always accompany him no matter what happened, but this time Yu Xiaolong seriously told them that he would go by himself this time and hoped that they would not follow him again.
Sun Renyi saw his serious expression and understood Yu Xiaolong's mood.
Wang Jiutian has disappeared for too long. Yu Xiaolong has always hidden his thoughts in the deepest part of his heart and rarely mentions Wang Jiutian.
This time Yu Xiaolong wanted to search by himself, but Sun Renyi had no objection and told others not to follow.
Walking aimlessly on the street, looking at the bustling crowd, Yu Xiaolong didn't know what to do.
There are many shops selling jade here, and there are many trading stalls on the roadside, as well as many antiques.
But he didn't have the mind to pay attention to this, and walked to the door of a restaurant without knowing it.
"Come on, come in and have a bowl of mutton noodles!" The young waiter stood at the door and greeted.
Yu Xiaolong hadn't eaten for four or five days. Now he smelled the mutton smell and suddenly felt a little hungry, so he walked in and sat on the table.
There were seven or eight tables in the room, and around each table there were several people chatting together.
A bowl of hot mutton noodles was served, and Yu Xiaolong's appetite was whetted and he ate it happily.
The clerk had nothing to do, so he sat next to him and asked, "How much did you charge?"
Yu Xiaolong was stunned, looked at him and asked, "How much did you charge?"
"Jade, how many did you collect?" the clerk asked again.
"Oh, I'm not here to buy that, I'm just here to have fun." Yu Xiaolong lowered his head and ate the mutton noodles.
"Isn't it? You don't want to take that here, but come to have fun?" The boy blinked: "How is that possible?"
"Haha, what's impossible? Why not come and have fun?" Yu Xiaolong said with a smile.
"Why not? Of course it will. But outsiders come here to collect jade. How can there be anything interesting in such a remote place?" The waiter said boredly, dragging his cheeks.
"Uh, I don't understand that stuff." Yu Xiaolong said with a bitter smile.
"Isn't it?"
The guy pointed at his neck and said, "I bet ten bowls of mutton noodles that what you are wearing must be jade."
Yu Xiaolong stretched out his hand and touched it. Sure enough, there was a red rope around his neck. It was the jade pendant Wang Jiutian gave him a long time ago. He had forgotten about it.
"Your eyes are very powerful, I admire you!" Yu Xiaolong took out the jade pendant and touched it while smiling.
"Look~ Haha~ Fortunately, I guessed it correctly. That jade pendant of yours looks very old, and it is probably worth ten thousand or eight thousand." The guy joked.
"Many things cannot be measured by money, haha." Yu Xiaolong gently stroked the jade pendant.
It is said without intention, but the listener has intention.
A middle-aged man on the table next to him glanced at the jade pendant, his eyes lit up, he came over with the mutton noodles, and said with a smile: "This little brother, can you let me have a look?"
Yu Xiaolong shook his head and smiled: "Sorry, this is not for sale."
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, but became interested and said, "Man, if you serve this little brother some more mutton, it's mine!"
Yu Xiaolong quickly declined: "No, no, no, no, no."
"You're welcome~ If you don't want to sell it, you won't sell it. I'll take a look, right?" The middle-aged man smiled stupidly.
"All right."
When Yu Xiaolong saw that the other party was talking about this, he took out the jade pendant again, but still wore it around his neck.
The middle-aged man leaned over awkwardly, squinting and looking over and over carefully.
After a moment, he pinched his chin and said, "Well...it's quite old. According to my experience, this jade pendant is at least three to four hundred years old."
"Oh, I don't know." Yu Xiaolong shook his head.
The other party rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Well, although it is old, the shape has a bad meaning. When worn, it seems a bit...don't blame me, just to be honest. It is not very auspicious to wear this, and I personally don't think so. Recommended to wear.”
Yu Xiaolong put the jade pendant around his neck and said with a smile: "I don't understand this either, it doesn't matter."
When the middle-aged man heard this, he immediately shook his head and said: "Although you don't understand, you can't wear it randomly. Wearing it is for good luck and good luck. If it is inappropriate, bad things will happen to you. How about this? I have a few here. This is a very nice jade pendant with excellent shape and auspicious meaning. It will definitely fit you well. I will sell yours for you, what do you think?"
Yu Xiaolong waved his hand and said: "Haha, I won't sell it."
The middle-aged man sighed, and then said, "How about I pay you 10,000 yuan and get a better one as a gift?"
Yu Xiaolong grinned and said: "If you buy my ten thousand yuan, you have to give me a better one. What are you planning?"
The middle-aged man pursed his lips and said, "Oh, little brother, I'm doing this for your own good!"
Yu Xiaolong shook his head and said impatiently: "Okay, stop talking, I won't sell it for any price."
Seeing his resolute attitude, the middle-aged man stood up reluctantly and said: "Okay... come to this restaurant whenever you want to sell, I'll be here every day.
After saying that, he patted his butt and walked out with his bag, and soon got into the crowd of people trading on the roadside.
At this time, an old man came over, sat opposite Yu Xiaolong, and said with a smile: "Friend, fortunately you didn't sell it. That guy has been buying and selling jade here for a long time, and he has tricked a lot of people."
Yu Xiaolong said with a smile: "Do you know him?"
"That guy has been here for several years. He always eats at my place when he has nothing to do. Oh, I'm the boss here, haha." The old man said, stroking his beard.
"I had no intention of selling in the first place. He couldn't trick me." Yu Xiaolong took a sip of tea.
"Anything he can seriously talk to someone is a good thing that he can like. He deliberately finds reasons to accept it at a low price. Don't believe him! Hey... there are a lot of liars here. There are too many messed up people. ." The old man shook his head and sighed as he spoke.
"Oh, thank you, old man. This jade pendant is very important to me, and I won't sell it no matter how much money I pay." Yu Xiaolong touched the jade pendant and gently put it into his clothes.
The old man looked at him and said thoughtfully: "I guess this jade pendant should be given by someone very important to you, probably an elder. Moreover, he is either... gone, or he hasn't been seen for a long, long time."
Yu Xiaolong's eyes lit up, he nodded and said: "The old man's guess is very accurate, it is true."
The old man nodded and said: "You are not very old, but you seem to have a lot of things on your mind."
"The heart is still thinking, as quiet as sighing, and the situation changes overnight." Yu Xiaolong said lightly.
"The wind comes from the tiger, the luck comes from the dragon, the dragon and tiger heroes are proud of the sky." The old man said slowly.
"Oh? It seems that the old man is also a person with stories." Yu Xiaolong's eyes lit up.
"Haha, I don't have any stories. I'm just an old man selling mutton noodles. I heard this from Abbot Wuxin." The old man waved his hands and smiled sheepishly.
"Abbot Wuxin?" Yu Xiaolong asked.
"Yes, it's in a village about three hundred miles away from here. Abbot Wuxin is now over a hundred years old. He has taken a dim view of life. Many people go to solve their problems. I also went to see him a few years ago." said the old man.
"Oh? Is there such a master here?" Yu Xiaolong's eyes lit up.
"If you have troubles that you can't solve, then go find him. After leaving the town, keep walking along the road. When you encounter a fork in the road, take the left, which is Hongyun Village." The old man pointed to the distance.
…
In front of a small temple, the door was open, and Yu Xiaolong knocked on the door.
But no one answered, but the sound of sweeping the floor could be heard clearly from inside, and Yu Xiaolong raised his feet and walked inside.
What surprised him was that there seemed to be an invisible transparent wall in front of the door, and he couldn't get in.
