The cold night breeze and a wisp of floating snow rolled down the wooden box. The endless sky, hazy clasped overhead, the gray and black face has no vitality at all.

With his unique skills, Jia Hu gently pried open the wooden box. When he slowly put his hand into the wooden box with excitement and nervousness, the whole person was stunned and froze there.

He was slightly stunned for a moment, and then opened all five wooden boxes at an almost crazy speed. Then, as soon as his body went limp, he fell to the ground weakly. - Five boxes full of brick tea.

If you lose the goods, how do you explain when you go back? Entrusted by people, the end of people's affairs. It is not Jia Hu's nature to slap his ass and leave and continue to live his own leisurely life. Moreover, it is contrary to the minimum morality of the rivers and lakes.

After thinking about it again, Jia Hu still decided to bear the trouble himself. Even if it was a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, he also recognized it. He can't bear the grace of Xiangzi's knowledge for this little thing, and he can't ruin his half-life reputation for this little thing.

Thinking about it, Jia Hu felt a little more relaxed physically and mentally. So, I shook my spirits and ran back to my residence in one go. Send one person back to Dihua overnight to inform Xiangzi and another police officer to return to the camel shop again.

The goods were transferred, and the shopkeeper couldn't help but know about it. So, Jia Hu and the others knocked on the door generously and entered the hospital.

The shopkeeper is a Shanxi man who is forty miles away, and when he saw that the person who came seemed to be familiar, he was looking at the person suspiciously and was stunned. Jia Hu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "May I ask the boss, how many Uyghurs were there yesterday?" ”

The shopkeeper frowned, narrowed his somewhat blurred eyes, and glanced at Jia Hu carefully. The voice was cold: "You are Boss Huang's person, right?" Isn't the caravan gone? Why are you still here? ”

Because Shoko has settled, he can't easily reveal his true identity unless he has to. So, Jia Hu smiled lightly and said, "Oh, those Uyghurs borrowed our boss's knife and forgot about it when they left." No, I'm going to be in a hurry tomorrow morning, so I remembered to ask for it. ”

The shopkeeper's eyes were sly, and he swept back and forth on the faces of the two of them. He said with a casual look: "They, you go on the front foot, and they go after that." ”

When Jia Hu heard this, he said anxiously: "Aren't their goods still in the yard?" ”

The shopkeeper was slightly stunned for a moment, narrowed his eyes and said, "This is someone else's goods, and it is brick tea that is going to be shipped to the Soviet Union." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the two of them contemptuously and prepared to leave. Jia Hu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "In that direction are they going?" ”

The shopkeeper stared at Jia Hu with a little irritation, and said in a cold voice: "Don't you understand the rules of the industry?" Why do you still inquire about the whereabouts of the caravan? ”

Jia Hu hurriedly said with a smile on his face: "Isn't this in a hurry? That knife is an object handed down by Boss Huang's ancestors. On weekdays, we don't even want to touch it. ”

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment, sighed lightly and said, "That is, Boss Huang, if someone else is changed, I don't care about these idle things." ”

Seeing that Jia Hu was respectfully and hurriedly currying favor, the shopkeeper muttered thoughtfully: "I don't understand their words very well, but I just faintly heard about Yili or something." ”

Jia Hu thanked him, and was about to turn around, as if he suddenly remembered something. He smiled and said to the shopkeeper, "Is it still a camel?" ”

The shopkeeper pouted slightly, and coughed twice in disguise. muttered angrily: "Transporting goods, of course it's camel miles." ”

The majestic Tianshan Mountains skillfully and beautifully divide the vast Xinjiang into north and south. The temperature difference between winter and summer in the north and south is about 10 degrees.

What's even more bizarre is that the winter in northern Xinjiang is full of snow and biting cold winds. The winter in southern Xinjiang is much softer, especially in the Turpan area, where it is difficult to see rain in summer and snow in winter. Occasional snow is rare.

Silver butterfly-like snowflakes flash with the wind and sparkle with crystalline points of light. The gentle body timidly landed on the rock-infested Gobi, and only a faint wet mark was left shyly.

Jia Hu was anxious and urged the horse to hurry all the way. The genius was bright, and he saw the camel shop at the intersection of Yanji Road from a distance.

From the owner's mouth, I learned that there was no caravan passing yesterday. Looking at the sweaty horses, Jia Hu shook his head helplessly and said, "How far is it from here to Yanji?" ”

The shopkeeper squinted at Jia Hu and hesitated: "If you don't say anything, there are a hundred and ten miles, do you want to ......" and then glanced at the horse with a hot nose suspiciously.

Jia Hu smiled reluctantly and said, "No, I'll live here today." Add some watercress to Ma and leave before dawn. ”

However, the Uighurs and the wooden boxes seemed to have evaporated from the earth. Jia Hu chased all the way west, but there was no trace of it.

Jia Hu stood on the shore of Yanji Lake, looking at the reeds that spread half of the lakeshore, with the dry reed flowers on his head, not knowing sorrow, swaying with the wind A beautiful soft wave. But my heart is restless, and I can't wait to plunge into the frozen lake and blend into a cool world.

Jia Hu felt hopeless and even devastated.

The breeze blew and the reeds nodded. The surface of the frozen lake, the shallow bends are licked out by the warm water of the lake. The mist of the water, like a wisp of green smoke over the reeds, was swallowed by the cold wind without a trace.

Just as Jia Hu was in a trance, he was stunned to find that a black wild duck suddenly sprang out of the bright water vortex. There was also a struggling crucian carp in its mouth.

Looking at the leisurely appearance of the wild duck, Jia Hu's heart moved slightly: to live, only by trying to live can there be a future and hope.

So, he looked up to the sky and sighed, and walked towards the sun with a little relaxation.

There is no trace south of the Tianshan Mountains, and only efforts can be made to the north of the Tianshan Mountains. Jia Hu and the two of them crossed the Tianshan Mountains by the official road in the starry night, and entered the Dihua Ancient Road from Banfanggou.

Looking at Dihua City standing in the ice and snow world, Jia Hu hesitated again and again, but still sent the police officers who came with him into the city to report the situation. But he was alone and pursued along the official road.

The reason why Jia Hu was reluctant to enter the city was because he was in a hurry, and secondly, he felt that he really had no face to see Xiangzi. He wants to make things have a result on his own, so as to leave some dignity for himself.

Shoko stayed at home for two days and then rushed to Ili by car. The purpose of his trip is to collect the net in a timely manner in order to get all the stolen goods.

The snowflakes that fell in the middle of the night made this already rugged official road even more slippery and difficult to walk.

The car swayed forward unhurriedly, and Shoko was squinting at the rare world of ice peaks. Suddenly raised his head, and saw that not far ahead, a scene of people sleepy and tired, suddenly caught his attention. The back of the horseman, why is it like Jia Huli?

Xiangzi glanced at the side with a puzzled face, and the driver Xiao Li accelerated the horsepower in a comprehension and rushed over.

That person is indeed Jia Hu.

Seeing Xiangzi looking at himself with a stunned look, Jia Hu immediately rolled into the saddle and dismounted in despair. The stiff voice recounted the whole thing.

Xiangzi was stunned for a while, and then gently patted Jia Hu, who was still full of frustration and guilt, and said in a calm voice: "It seems that I still underestimate them." ”

As he spoke, he glanced around, sighed lightly, and said, "There are a few families on the hillside ahead, you go and settle the horses." We'll have to get back from the owner of the camel shop. ”

When the owner of the camel shop saw an official jeep coming to the door, he immediately greeted him with some doubts and nervousness. Seeing Jia Hu getting out of the car, his face sank slightly, and he muttered, "Why are you here again?" ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Shoko, who was looking at him coldly. Jia Hu smiled at him and said, "We are from the Public Security Bureau, and this is Captain Guo." ”

When the shopkeeper saw this, he was stunned for a moment, and then, with a smile on his face, he stepped forward and said, "Oh, it turns out that you are from the government, why didn't you say it earlier?" As he spoke, he threw a hint of reproach at Jia Hu.

Xiangzi took a step forward and asked in a cold voice, "How did a few Uyghurs and the five big wooden boxes leave here?" ”

Seeing Xiangzi's majestic appearance, the shopkeeper's body trembled slightly, his small eyes rolled, and he said, "I.... I left the afternoon a day ago... Camels..."

As he spoke, he glanced at Shoko with a sly and cowardly look. Shoko's cold and wise eyes glanced at the shopkeeper like lightning. He said in a steady voice, "Let me ask you again, how did those guys leave?" ”

The shopkeeper moved back half a step in a little panic, glanced at Xiangzi with a flickering eye, and said, "The box... Camel... Horseback riding..."

Xiangzi glanced at the shopkeeper in disgust, and said in a faint voice: "It seems that the shopkeeper doesn't want to tell the truth." Then let's go to the police station and talk slowly. ”

As he spoke, he gave Jia Hu a look and said, "Take it away!" ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he was suddenly stunned. Then, with a pop, he fell to his knees and said pleadingly, "Please don't take me away, can't I tell the truth?" ”

As he spoke, his nose howled with tears. Xiangzi pulled it up with a gentle face, and said in a gentle voice: "You don't have to be afraid, as long as you tell the truth, we won't embarrass you." ”

The shopkeeper wiped his face indiscriminately, and said in a trembling voice: "The goods were loaded in a carriage, and they gave me money, and asked me to say that it was a camel." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Shoko timidly. Shoko nodded in a deep voice and asked, "Is the carriage only filled with wooden boxes?" ”

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and immediately smiled mysteriously and said, "There are still wheat straw miles on it." ”

Xiangzi carefully checked the map and said with a relaxed face: "From Dihua to Bole, there is no camel trail. They had to walk for three days. We were waiting for them at Bole. ”

Seeing Xiangzi's casual appearance, Jia Hu felt uncomfortable for a while. He sighed softly and said with a ashamed face: "I blame me for being careless and bringing you this * trouble." As he spoke, he lowered his head and sighed deeply.

Xiangzi smiled faintly and said, "You are already good, if you meet me, you may not be as beautiful as you." ”

When Jia Hu heard this, he shook his head shamefully and said, "Master said that I was laughing, how could I compare with you." ”

Xiangzi smiled mysteriously and said sarcastically: "I don't know your craft?" I don't have to wait stupidly for the wooden box, maybe this will still be guarding the box. ”

The confusion of the case did not suppress the laughter in the car. The car continued on the rough and uneven official road with no other choice.
