Volume 1: The Power of Jade, Chapter 1, Ten Districts of China

In June 002, Huaxia Zhou, District 8, in an antique market.

"Can't you just give some more money? This is a thing from the Ming Dynasty. A slightly immature voice said.

It was a little boy who looked to be about fourteen or five years old at the counter of a jade shop, begging for the middle-aged man behind the counter, who might be obese.

In the boy's hand was a jade dish, and it was not difficult to see the little boy's living situation from the shabby cloth under the jade disc and the dirty and slightly trembling little hand.

"Hmph, at most 500 Huaxia coins, it's impossible to get even more points," the middle-aged man said rudely. "Don't think I don't know, you must have stolen it. ”

"No, no, sir, this is my ancestral. The little boy's aggrieved eyes were red. "You've given too little, I'll take a look elsewhere. ”

Without waiting for the middle-aged man to react, the boy turned and ran away from the door. He ran all the way out of the antique market, he was very scared and aggrieved. Crying while running.

The boy's name is Long Yu and he is 15 years old. The world catastrophe 3 years ago made him lose all his relatives, except for one sister. Without his sister, he might have died in a panic. However, his sister is also sick now, and it takes a lot of money to treat her, and this ancestral jade disc is the only hope, and he must sell it for a good price.

Long Yu ran through several intersections in a row, and he squatted on the side of the road with a weak body, already crying silently.

"Sister, sister, Yu'er will definitely not let you leave me. Long Yu showed a resolute look in his eyes, stood up, and walked towards the pawn shop across the road

There are only a few hovercars driving through the wide streets, and there are few pedestrians. After the apocalypse, the population of the earth is only about 500 million, although Chinese account for a quarter, but they are not united, but separately, China is divided into ten regions, and it is also the only ten regions in the world that can provide human survival, and the survivors of other countries have to stay in these ten districts. Since then, the Chinese era of mankind has begun.

Coming out of a jewelry store again, Long Yu was almost desperate, he seemed to be eaten to death by those black-hearted merchants, not to mention that he wanted to sell the jade plate at a good price, he was in rags and knew that he was still facing the danger of being killed and robbed, after all, those black-hearted merchants liked this kind of fat sheep with treasures and no background at all.

He quickly left the jewelry store, and swayed down the road to a small alley, and after making sure that he was not followed, he leaned against the wall and sat down deeply.

"Why, why, damn it," he said, his hands clutching at his hair, the moonlight pulling his frail figure long

Slowly, perhaps tired from crying, he fell asleep quietly. In the dream, the mother's voice is always so loving, "Yu'er, tonight my mother made your favorite dish." "Yu'er, look at you, every time you come back, you make it so sloppy, go change into clean clothes, mom will wash you" Father's voice has always been so stern "Long Yu, if you make trouble outside again, you see that I don't pick your skin." "Long Yu, remember that the men of the Long family are to stand up to the sky. "This is our family heirloom, according to legend" In his sleep, he still clutched the jade disc tightly, and what he didn't know was that now the jade disc was emitting a faint white light, revealing the rag that wrapped it and reflected it on the boy's haggard face

The faint white light gradually became thicker, and a warm feeling came from Long Yu's palm, in this cold night, this warmth made Long Yu's compact expression on his face soothe a lot, and he snorted comfortably. But suddenly, the light hum turned into a scream, because the warmth in the palm of his hand turned into heat, and Long Yu woke up from being hot. There was a faint smell of burnt paste in the palm of his hand, Long Yu couldn't think about it, he just instinctively wanted to throw the jade dish out, but the jade dish seemed to grow in his hand, and no matter how Long Yu moved, he couldn't get the jade dish down. He could only jump left and right, grinning his teeth, but no matter how hard he tried, it didn't help. At this time, the originally faint white light also turned into a dazzling white light, and with a scream of "ah", Long Yu covered his eyes with his other hand.

A strong tingling sensation came from the palm of the hand, and I couldn't feel it anymore because of the numbness. Long Yu, who was already weak, gradually fell into a coma, and at the moment before he passed out, "Could it be that the legend that my father said is true?" "But, am I going to die?" "What should my sister do?" A series of thoughts appeared in Long Yu's mind.

At this time, in an office in a commercial building in the center of the district, a young man with a pale face sat in the boss's chair. "Hmph, you bunch of waste, you can lose it with a child, what use do I want you to have?"

"But, young master, we got the news too late, we have done our best"

"Shut up, I have to see the boy and the jade by tomorrow morning, or you will know the consequences. The young man directly interrupted his subordinate's explanation.

"Yes, young master," several people in front of the desk bowed their heads at the same time.

"Also, now it's not just us who know about the jade, I think the Bai family should also know, do you know how to do it?"

"Yes, young master"

"Hmph, as long as I get the jade, this Huaxia Continent will belong to my Nangong family, hahahaha"——

The sky was already cloudy, Long Yu had been in a coma for a few hours, "um" A soft groan, Long Yu gradually woke up, "I'm still alive?" Long Yu opened his eyes and looked around, suddenly seemed to remember something, raised his hand and looked deeply at the jade disc in his hand, "What did my father say just now? Why am I not in pain at all? Why do I feel better than ever?"

After a while, Long Yu put a series of questions behind him, took a deep breath, and stood up against the wall. "Anyway, I'm going to get out of here, my sister is still waiting for me. He turned around and prepared to leave.

"Hey, boy, come with us!" At this time, several big men walked in front of Long Yu, led by a young man in black in casual clothes, and this sentence was what he said.

"Who are you and what are you going to do?" Long Yu was extremely awake at this time, he clearly felt that there were also a few people approaching behind him, and he could only temporarily drag them with words.

"You don't need to know who we are, you just need to know that if you don't go back with us, you will only die!" said the young man in black hideously.

"Hmph, don't you just want the jade plate? If you dare to take another step forward, I'll smash it. Long Yu said as he lifted the jade and made a gesture to fall.

"Wait, stinky boy, make a price, and I promise you to leave safely. At this time, the few people behind Long Yu had also come up. The young man in black said to Long Yu with the victory in hand.

Long Yu's mind was racing, and he replied, "Okay, the jade disc can be given to you, but you have to get the money first, I can't run anyway, right?" After speaking, he shook his arm symbolically.

The young man in black took a deep look at Long Yu, "Okay, how much do you want, I'll ask someone to bring it to you right away."

"Ten million Huaxia coins, not a penny, and I can only give you jade plates in a place where I think it is safe," Long Yu replied. At this time, he thought, "If you really get the money, you can cure my sister's illness first, and then talk about it, 10 million is a good price." ”

"No problem, you can wait a minute" the black-clothed young man said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and at the same time, Long Yu didn't notice that his hand made a slight gesture.
