Chapter Seventy-Eight: Boar Teeth

In the past two days of applying for a visa, I have nothing to do to check the situation in the Wa State of Myanmar: The Wa State is located in the Awa Mountains in northeastern Myanmar. It is bordered by China's Yunnan Province to the east and Thailand to the south. The main ethnic group is the Wa nationality, inhabited by the Han, Dai, Miao and other ethnic minorities for generations, the whole state speaks the official dialect of the southwest of the Chinese, using Chinese characters, using RMB, China Telecom's Wa area code is Lincang area code, calling China in Wa State is a domestic long-distance, and calling Myanmar is an international long-distance.

Moreover, the Wa State is an independent kingdom with its own army and administration, and the central government of Myanmar has little control over it.

I think it's a hassle-free, no need to open international calls, and no need to exchange foreign currency. However, there is no direct flight from China to the Wa Special Administrative Region of Myanmar, and the fastest way is to take a plane to Lancang Jingmai Airport, and then transfer to a bus to Meng'a Port in Monglian, from which to enter Bang Kham, the capital of the Wa Special Administrative Region of Myanmar.

After Yifan and I got off the plane at Lancang Jingmai Airport, we went to Meng'a Port in Menglian according to the plan, Meng'a Port is located at the confluence of the Nanma River and the Nanka River, bounded by the heart of the Nanka River, the east bank of the river is China, and the west bank of the river is Myanmar.

After Ivan and I cleared customs, we crossed the border bridge from Meng'a and boarded a bus bound for Bangkang, the capital of Wa State.

There were quite a lot of people on the bus, both Burmese and Chinese, most of whom were doing business on the Sino-Burmese border.

This time I went abroad, Ivan and I were both big girls in a sedan chair for the first time, and I thought I could enjoy the exotic scenery.

Sitting in the car, I saw that the mountains outside the window are undulating and endless, and the dilapidated bus we took was like a snail, crawling between the ups and downs of the mountains, the vegetation on the mountains was dense, and even the trees on both sides of the highway were shading the sky and the sun, and the big trees hugged by one person could be seen everywhere! And the climate here is hot and humid, which makes people feel stuffy!

The car drove for almost an hour, and there were still towering trees on both sides of the road, which seemed to have no end, and occasionally saw a small village on the side of the road, and a few tiled houses were hidden in the green leaves.

Just when I was bored and drowsy, a young man sitting in the back row of us took the initiative to come over and talk.

"The two eldest brothers are from China, right? Coming to travel? ”

I didn't know what he meant, but I smiled politely at him and nodded.

"Big brother, I am from Wa and often go to China to do some small business, do you want me to have a good thing? Originally, it was going to be sent to China, but today the port is tightly checked, and it didn't get mixed up, so how about I deal with it cheaply for you? ”

As he spoke, the young man pulled out his phone from his satchel, apparently to show me the pictures on his phone.

I thought to myself, what is so mysterious that I can only see pictures if I want to sell them? I was curious for a moment, and Ivan also came over, probably quite curious.

But on the photo of the mobile phone, there is a person holding a curved yellow-white object in both hands in front of the camera, looking at the size of nearly one meter, there are large yellow-brown patches on the thing, and the person's hands and the object are still stained with blood, the background is a dark primeval forest, and the corpse of an animal seems to be on the ground, but because most of the camera is blocked by the white object, it is impossible to see what animal it is.

Ivan smiled and said to the young man, "It seems to be ivory!" How dare you be to openly peddle ivory? ”

"Do you want ivory? I also have ivory, you can get off with me and I'll take you to see it, but ivory is more expensive than this, this is not ivory, this is boar ivory! Right now, under my seat, how about selling it to you cheaper if you like! ”

I was scared! How could there be such a large boar tooth! Ordinary wild boar teeth are only about ten centimeters, this from the photo, there is not a meter at least seventy or eighty centimeters, how can it be a wild boar teeth!

"You continue to give me nonsense, who has ever seen such a big boar tooth? You're trying to make money and want to go crazy, right? Little brother, are we Chinese all fools? Ivan said to the young man with a disdainful expression.

The young man smiled and didn't speak, just slipped his hand and put the next picture from his phone in front of Ivan and me.

I turned my head curiously, and the next second I was completely shocked by the photo!

I saw a middle-aged man in the photo, with the wild boar tooth in his hand just now, holding a long shotgun in his right hand, and behind him, a huge wild boar fell in a pool of blood, and it had already been disemboweled, and the blood on the ground was flowing like a river. How big is this boar? According to the comparison of the middle-aged man's body in the film, it is estimated that he is one lap bigger than an adult buffalo!

"I'll go to his second uncle! Is this really fake? You're not here to sell things, are you? Ivan, who was sitting next to him, was also dumbfounded.

"Two big brothers, it's absolutely true, ivory is more expensive than this, I use ivory to pretend to be boar teeth, then I'm not sick in the brain?!"

I was right when I thought about it!

"Such a big wild boar, it's terrifying! It's bigger than a cow, and who's in the picture! So powerful? Just a shotgun? Just kill this wild boar," I couldn't help but ask.

That guy probably thinks we want to buy it, and he's even more energetic.

"Two big brothers, this is my father in the photo, this wild boar was not killed by him, in the past two years, several people in our village have gone into the mountains to hunt and never returned, and the people in the village have spread that there are monsters in the mountains that have become spirits, and people are panicking, and many people have moved away. My dad is the head of the village, so he and a dozen young people in the village went into the mountains with shotguns to look for it, but the group searched for several days, but they didn't find it, but they found this giant wild boar, and when they found it, it was already dead, and it seemed to have been bitten alive by something! Because there are still traces of fighting, you can see that these trees have been broken," the young man said, pointing to the photo of several large trees that had been broken alive.

Ivan and I were stunned! No one was speechless for a while!

Such a large wild boar was bitten alive! And what could be that that bit it to death?!

"Both! Do you want to buy it? You won't find such a big boar tooth again! My Abba has been hunting for more than ten years and said he has never seen it! ”

"Didn't you see what animal bit you?" I asked hurriedly.

"Hey, they're scared too! I don't dare to continue looking for someone! At that time, they all went back to the village, do you believe that I can take you to see my Abba! How about buying it, 20,000 yuan, much cheaper than ivory, it will definitely save face to bring it back to China! ”

Ivan and I were still immersed in deep shock, and no one paid attention to him for a while.

The young man saw that we had no one to pay attention to him, and he sat back in his seat, feeling bored.

But when I listened to this young man's words, my heart was full of ups and downs, I knew that there were many poisonous snakes and beasts in the primordial deep forest, but I didn't know that it was so bizarre! A wild boar is bigger than a cow!

"Alright, don't worry! The purpose of our trip is to rescue Wei Shengjin, and we will return to China immediately after saving people, regardless of what wild boar and bison he is! Ivan whispered in my ear.

I nodded, looking out the window.
