Chapter 298: Lifetime

The town of Usutu is not large, the population of the whole town is less than 100,000, most of the people here are shepherds, but the remote area, the transportation is inconvenient, and the guide zhì is not timely to transport materials.

She was asking if there was a refugee shelter, and most of the people here spoke Mongolian or the local ancient language, and she couldn't communicate with several people.

He went directly to the town government, which at this time had closed its doors and there was no one at all, and it was said that most of the officials had already visited the districts to verify the damage.

Although this town is not big, it feels like it is difficult to find someone.

But who is Ji Hang, he thought of a way. He dragged a truckload of supplies over and contacted a government logistics staff member in charge of the General Political Department, saying that he had a large amount of food and supplies, and that he would continue to ask people to send rescue materials over and arrange for their distribution.

As soon as the man heard that someone was going to send supplies, he immediately began to make arrangements, and in less than an hour he began to notify the towns and ask people to send people to come and collect the corresponding supplies.

In the process of coming, he called back to Qingyang and asked the company to prepare materials and send them over.

He had a photo of Tu Tu in his hand, and everyone who asked people to come to receive the supplies recognized the photo and whether they had seen Tu Tu or not.

This trick really worked, and an old aunt had seen her.

"She's got a handsome man, and she's on Usu Street! She is beautiful, she is also a very good person, and she also works for Yang Blind! The old lady said.

He asked how to get there, and went straight to it.

The damage on Wusu Street was also extremely strict, and there were hardly any good houses in the place he saw, and he went to the jade carving shop where the blind man Yang said his aunt said. It was a small two-story bungalow, but the house had also collapsed, and there were quite a few people cleaning things up, and one of the thin figures he recognized at a glance.

"Is there a way for me to go back to Alxa Mengzuoqi City, I have to contact Brother Ji Hang, and I told him that I will go back early."

With her back to her was Ding Tuyu, who was wearing black trousers, a long gray shirt, her hair tied up, and her sleeves folded up to help clean things up.

"It's a bit difficult now, let's see how it happens tomorrow!" Next to him was Qu Xijue, who looked at Tu Yu from time to time, "Are you tired, if you are tired, rest next to you for a while." ”

"I'm not tired, I'll go see my grandfather." The girl said, walking over to a simple tent that had been set up next to her.

He just stood like that, never speaking.

Until Qu Xijue on the side saw him, he was very shocked, just after the earthquake, the entire Alxa Left Banner was in chaos, and Ji Xuan actually appeared here.

He put down what he was holding and walked over: "How did you find here?" ”

It was shocking that he was able to find him so quickly just after an earthquake.

"There's always a way." Look at this house, the house is half collapsed, and it is not so easy to rebuild.

"Communication has been cut off here, and there is no way to make phone calls." Qu Xijue replied, "It is estimated that the repair will take several days, and Tu Xi has wanted to contact you since the earthquake." I couldn't contact you the other day, and I was in a hurry. ”

He didn't speak, he looked around, this was a stone carving shop before, there were a lot of stones, machinery. Half of the house collapsed, but there were things on the other side, apparently still living here.

"Stay in here?" It's too dangerous, and now there are aftershocks, and there will be accidents at any time.

"For the time being." Qu Xijue also knew that it was dangerous, but this was also something that could not be helped.

"Grandpa, he ......" Tu Yu ran out at this time, and she was also stunned when she saw Ji Hang, she never thought that Ji Hang would appear here.

How did he come about? How did he find here? This place is very remote, and now there is an earthquake, is he a god? Transformed here all at once.

Ji hung to see that Tu Yu's face was dirty, his left cheek was still stained with a lot of dust, the collar of his clothes was slightly open, fine beads of sweat were flowing from his neck, and a band-aid was attached to his left elbow, as if he was injured.

"Brother Hang......" Tu Yu walked over, "You ......"

"I drove here, and the disaster on the side of Alxa Left Banner is not severe." Ji hung over, and without waiting for her to say anything, she explained, looking at her injured elbow, it should be a bruise, not very strict.

Tears welled up in her eyes, and she hugged the man tightly: "How do you know about the earthquake here?" ”

Now that the news has not been reported, how does he know!

"I happened to be in Alxa Left Banner." He replied, "I was going to go back, but I didn't expect an earthquake, so I came over to have a look." ”

Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Tu Yu wanted to scream three times, does this man want to do this! It must have been that she hadn't contacted him for two days, which made him worried, so he rushed over. Tu Yu hugged the man tightly, and the soul of fear for days was sucking until the man's breath finally settled down.

When the earthquake last night, she couldn't sleep looking at the stars in the backyard, when suddenly the whole ground shook so strongly that she fell. Qu Xijue reacted quickly, and quickly went to the house to carry his grandfather out.

Yes, they found her grandfather, Yang Jinrong, here. Even Tu Yu felt incredible, and Qu Xijue took her all the way to Alxa Left Banner.

On the way to Usutu Town, Tu Yu asked him, "How do you know that my grandfather is here?" ”

"Because I am sure that your grandfather's disappearance has something to do with several other members of the Jade Society, your grandfather disappeared thirty years ago, and there are many rumors, some say that he went to the Northeast, some say that he went to Tibet, and some say that he went to Mongolia. I checked what the other people in the Jade Society were doing that year? Ding Shiping didn't go anywhere in Qingyang that year, Pei Xingchen, Li Liangchen and others were in Myanmar, Shi Yunsheng was not in China, and Zhou Chenqi had disappeared the year before. When I thought it had nothing to do with them, I found out that Li Liangchen's younger brother had been in Alxa Zuoqi for three months. And that year, it was rumored in the jade circle that the Li family had discovered a jade mine in Alxa Zuoqi, and Li Liangchen and others had to participate in the investment and mining. And that was the year your grandfather disappeared, and I guess he might have been here. ”

"So this year, I have been sending someone here to check, Alxa Left Banner produces a kind of yellow ore, although not as high as jadeite, but over the years Alxa Left Banner has been out of high-value Alxa stone ornaments, its artistic value is very high. I have studied, although the carving is somewhat different from the jade watermelon, but the carving method is somewhat similar. Qu Xijue continued, "My grandfather is the leading jade carver in China, and I wonder if it will come from his hands." ”

Tu Yu's heart jumped suddenly, Li Mingxun also wanted to find his grandfather before, but he didn't know the previous situation, how could he think that his grandfather's disappearance would be related to the Li family, so it was naturally impossible to find here.

When they arrived in the town of Usutu, they first found a place to stay, and then they found this carving shop in the alleys of Usu Street.

This is a carving shop opened by a teacher's father, and there is a very famous carver surnamed Yang, but because he is blind in one eye, deaf in one ear, and does not like to talk much, everyone calls him Yang blind.

In recent years, several very famous ores in Alxa have been carved by him, and it is hard to imagine that a blind man is actually an ore carver.

When they came to find it, the boss heard that there was a very good jade and wanted to ask Master Yang to carve it, so he happily led them to meet them.

When they saw the old man in the carving room, Tu Yu was shocked.

This is a very old man, his body is rickety, his hands are thin and thin, he is holding those jades, very handy.

"Master Yang, someone has taken a piece of jadeite and wants you to carve it." The boss said loudly in the old man's ear.

"Emerald? It's been a long time since I've carved jadeite. The old man's voice was very heavy, he stopped what he was doing, stood up with some difficulty, and touched the hand beside him. A young man in his thirties was beside him, carefully helping him over.

"Master Yang has carved very few stone tools in recent years, and he only has one apprentice with him now." The owner explained on the side.

"What kind of jade?" The old man walked over, and although he couldn't see or hear very well, he seemed to know roughly where they were.

"I'll show you!" Tu Yu couldn't hide the excitement in her heart, she had seen the photos of her grandfather, the old man in front of her was very different from the clear Yang Jinrong back then, not to mention that he had entered the age of eighty, his eyes were big, but because he couldn't see and was completely godless, the wrinkles on his face almost blurred his facial features.

Tu Yu thought that if such an old man suddenly appeared in front of him, she might not be able to recognize it.

She put her red jade pendant in his hand: "Look, I have a jade rough like this, if you can please help me carve it like this." ”

As soon as the old man touched Hong Fei's face, his hands trembled slightly, and his mouth was very excited. Then he waved it and said, "Ah Hui, help me to sit down." ”

The man named Ah Hui hurriedly helped him sit down, and the old man touched the jade carefully, and then smiled again, his eyes were filled with tears.

"This is what my mother left for me, and my mother didn't say who gave it to her, but I think it should have been given to her by my grandmother or grandfather." Tu Yu slowly passed, and then crouched down to look at the old man.

"What's your mother's name?" The old man asked.

"Her name is Yan Ruyu." Tu replied.

When the old man heard this, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Tu Yu's hand: "Your mother's name is Yan Ruyu?" ”

"Yes, my mother was a painter." Tu Yu nodded, holding back tears, "Can you carve such a jade?" ”

The old man laughed and let go of his hand.

"It's been a long time since I've carved jadeite, and I don't have the ability to carve such a water jadeite now, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed."

"It's okay, it's not the main purpose of my visit to carve jadeite this time, I'm looking for someone for my grandmother." Tu Yu looked at the old man and said.

"What did you say?" The old man was stunned, extremely shocked, "What are you telling me?" ”

"I had my grandmother passed away until the first half of this year, when I met my grandmother in Mandalay, who had been suffering from illness for many years and had been unable to return to her home country. This time she heard about my grandfather and insisted on coming back no matter what! Her greatest hope, she says, is to see her husband in her lifetime. ”R1154
