Chapter 213 Palm Eyes
Su Tong knew what he hadn't finished saying. Given the situation at that time, if he had been a few minutes late, he would not have been able to find her and save her.
She immediately panicked, and a mixture of guilt or shame surged in her heart...
The shadow cast by last night's tense emergency rescue will probably take a long time to disappear.
She quickly picked up the previous topic and analyzed:
"So, this A-Feng wants to get something from me. He is willing to offend the entire Crow's Mouth Rock before his injury is healed."
"But there's nothing valuable in my pocket except the pills. If he wants the pills, he could just ask Chunzhi to ask me for them. There's no need to go through all this trouble."
"There's another possibility... He might know you, and he knows you, so he knows there's something in you."
Qin Yi took over the conversation and said thoughtfully:
"Otherwise, there's no way to explain why he would go to such great lengths just to see you once."
Su Tong was confused.
To be honest, she had only been here for a short time, and the number of people she had met could almost be counted on one's fingers. Even Wu Tong had not been out of the ten-kilometer radius in the past ten years.
In her memory, she had no impression of Afeng.
As for the things on her body, she suddenly remembered something and took out a red rope from her neck. Tied to it was the jade pendant that her uncle had given her before she set out. It was a small piece, lying green in her palm.
She glanced at Qin Yi, who shook his head and said:
"This jade pendant has only been in your hands for a few days. Not even a few people in our team know about it, let alone others."
Su Tong nodded, that was indeed the case.
She wanted to put the jade pendant back on her collar, but a strange voice came from the side:
"Hey! The little girl has a treasure on her!"
Su Tong looked at Ma Liu who was resting against a tree, thought for a moment and said:
"Sixth Master, can you help me take a look?"
Ma Liu slept almost all the time when he was at Crow's Beak Rock, and he is in good spirits now.
Hearing Su Tong calling him, he stretched out his body and hesitated for a while before lazily moving two steps towards the fire, holding out his hand and saying:
"Give it to me! Let Master Liu take a look at it!"
Su Tong took off the jade pendant and handed it to him.
Since her uncle gave it to her, she has never shown it to anyone else, but Ma Liu knows how to identify antiques, so she asked him to take a look and see if he could tell anything about it.
Ma Liu took it, turned it over and over, and looked at it against the light. "Not bad! Old mine, glass type..."
He took another closer look and said, "It's not that old, it should be worth some money!"
After that, he threw it back to Su Tong and said, "I didn't realize that your family has some background!"
"What?" Su Tong asked.
"Your name is engraved on it. It should be a peace locket that your family customized for you when you were born. How could an average family afford one from Lao Feng Xiang in the 1950s?"
Su Tong was a little surprised. "You, you can tell the age and origin by just taking a look like this?"
Ma Liu sighed and reached out to Su Tong again, "Give it here! I'm sorry to explain it to you who don't know anything about it!"
As he spoke, he took out a small magnifying glass from his inner pocket and pointed it at the inner hole of the jade pendant for Su Tong to see.
"Look here, isn't there a pattern? It looks like the English letter "f" or a phoenix spreading its wings. This was the logo of Lao Feng Xiang in the early years."
Su Tong's mind went blank for a moment, but he still subconsciously took the magnifying glass and looked at the place where Ma Liu pointed.
Sure enough, I saw a few faint marks, which combined together looked like a streamlined "f", and indeed looked like a phoenix spreading its wings. It only took two strokes, but it was very vivid.
If no one told people about it, most people would never notice that there was something else going on inside the hole of this small jade pendant.
"Everything produced by Lao Feng Xiang has a logo, but many people don't know it. Let me think... It was around 1965 when Lao Feng Xiang changed its logo and stopped using this one.
You are at most twenty this year! That means you were born in 1956 or 1957. This is just right. At that time, the New China was established only a few years ago. Many places were not able to get enough food. You can wear old-brand old pit jadeite, so how bad can your family be? "
Ma Liu’s analysis was very logical.
Su Tong was thinking, the Lao Feng Xiang brand is still well-known today, does this jade pendant belong to the 1990s when she was born, or the 1950s when Wu Tong was born?
Seeing Su Tong staring at the jade pendant in a daze, Qin Yi thought she was thinking about her own life experience, and said softly:
"After this operation is over, we can investigate carefully. Now it seems that there are entry points in Gan Province and Beijing. It should not be difficult to investigate your background."
He thought for a moment and added, "We can all help you!"
It was a normal sentence, but he considered it before saying it, feeling a little guilty for no reason.
Su Tong came back to her senses and saw Qin Yi looking at her with concern in his eyes, and nodded quickly.
Then he added: "Thank you! I will check it out after this operation is over. If I need your help, I will let you know!"
The team took a short rest and continued heading west.
On the map in the hands of the action team, there is a large blank area between Wushanao and Hongwa Village without any markings.
The map provided by Yazuiyan clearly stated that in addition to Yazuiyan, there were at least four villages in this area, including Qingshizhai, Hubiling, etc.
The reason for saying this is that in addition to this named village, there are also a few scattered small triangle marks. When asked what they mean, the elders just shook their heads and refused to say more.
In terms of location, Qingshizhai is located in the northwest, Hubeiling is located in the southwest, Heishuijian is located in the southeast, there is Mangpiling in the middle, and Yazuiyan is located in the northeast of this area.
According to the elders of the tribe, it takes a whole day to travel from Yazui Rock to the nearby Mangpiling Mountain, and two days to the farther Qingshi Village. It’s not that the distance is far, but that the road is difficult to travel.
Indeed, when we just left Crow's Beak Rock, there was still a visible road, but now that we have walked this far, the road has become increasingly difficult to find.
But looking at the map, the most convenient route is to go directly northwest to Qingshizhai, then pass through Qingshizhai and continue southwest to Hongwa Village. Other villages can be skipped directly to avoid detours.
Li Song and Rao Jiancheng, who were responsible for clearing the way, had to swing their machetes as they walked. When they got tired, the people behind them would take over. Even so, the marching speed did not increase much.
The mountains here are mostly rock, and are steeper and more dangerous than those in Wushanao. It is also difficult to tell the direction in the dense forest.
The only way to avoid losing your direction is to look at the map and follow the compass.
Near noon, the team stopped.
A deep ravine appeared ahead, running from north to south, blocking the westward direction.
Everyone walked to the edge of the stream and looked around. It was about ten meters deep and they could see water at the bottom from a distance, but they didn't know how deep it was. It was about ten meters wide, so they could clearly see the other side of the stream, but it was definitely too wide to pass by human power alone.
