"Okay, keep the bank card. I'll get the painting for you."

Xie Yuchen and Huo Xiuxiu smiled at each other, as if they were celebrating this unprecedented success in advance.

"Fire! Fire!"

The shouting outside the shop door attracted the owner's attention. He looked outside and saw a burning motorcycle with thick smoke billowing out.

"Oops! My car!"

He didn't care about the painting behind him, and ran outside in two steps, yelling and cursing at the motorcycle that was already broken.

"Who is this evil-hearted person who burned my car? Get out here!"

Xie Yuchen and Huo Xiuxiu stood behind him. This sudden change made them a little overwhelmed, and they could only symbolically comfort their boss with a few words.

"Okay, boss. I've paid for the motorcycle. Can you go get the painting for us?"

"Really? Oh sure, this guest is truly a rare kind-hearted person, hahaha..."

The boss was smiling so hard that his eyes were invisible. He immediately turned around to get the POS machine in the store.

Xie Yuchen smiled helplessly and lowered his head. The moment he turned around, he suddenly bumped into a beggar who was dressed in rags and wrapped tightly.

"I'm sorry old man."

"it's okay no problem."

The beggar dodged Xie Yuchen's support and waved the bamboo pole in his hand to feel if there were any obstacles blocking the way ahead.

"A blind beggar? He looks quite pitiful, doesn't he, Brother Xiaohua?"

"what!!!"

The boss' scream interrupted what Xie Yuchen was about to say. He and Huo Xiuxiu quickly ran into the store and saw the boss pointing at the empty wall with a look of horror on his face.

"The painting...the painting is gone!"

Xie Yuchen immediately thought of the blind beggar who had bumped into him just now, and shouted, "It's that blind man!"

Huo Xiuxiu followed him, and the two of them kept moving through the alleys, looking for the person who stole the painting.

At this time, Hei Xia Zi was sitting on the stairs of one of the alleys. He removed the two pieces of celadon fragments that were stuck to the painting, and took one of them in his hand to examine it carefully.

His face revealed an indescribable sense of ease and comfort.

"Oh, I didn't expect to find it so quickly. It really came without any effort..."

He was just about to put the celadon fragment in his hand into his pocket when a figure suddenly flashed in front of him. When he looked down, the celadon fragment placed on the ground had disappeared.

The man with black glasses immediately stood up and looked up at the roof not far away. Huo Xiuxiu proudly waved the celadon fragment in her hand at him.

"you......"

He pointed at Huo Xiuxiu, and before he could say anything, the celadon fragment in his hand was taken away by Xie Yuchen.

Xie Yuchen leaned against a corner not far away and put the celadon fragments into his pocket in front of him.

In just a blink of an eye, Xie Yuchen and Huo Xiuxiu disappeared from his sight.

Black Glasses didn't dare to delay and had to quickly run to the convenience store. He remembered that their car was still parked in front of the store.

As soon as he arrived, he saw Xie Yuchen and Huo Xiuxiu preparing to step on the accelerator and leave.

In desperation, he had to stand in front of the car, blocking their way out.

"I say... Sir... shall we have a chat?"

Xie Yuchen looked at him coldly and said loudly, "No more chatting!" Then he released the handbrake and stepped on the accelerator.

Seeing that he was serious, the man with black glasses didn't dare to stand in front of the car anymore. He could only run to the side and watch the car go away.

"Heh... I just don't believe I can let you get away?"

He muttered something and walked out of the village slowly. Ten minutes later, he saw Xie Yuchen who was blocked on the road by Aning's men.

He walked over and pretended not to see them.

"Hey!" Xie Yuchen called him loudly, with a smile on his face, "Want to chat?"

The man with black glasses shook his head and said indifferently, "No need to talk."

Seeing this, Xie Yuchen took out the two pieces of celadon fragments in his hand and shook them in front of the man with black glasses, and said lightly.

"Are you sure you don't want to talk?"

When the man with black glasses saw this, he dared not refuse anymore. He could only hold down the gradually rising car window and put on a very flattering smile.

"Chat! You can chat whatever you want!"

Xie Yuchen had a smile on his face, and his eyes showed that he was in control of everything.

"I think you have found the rest of the fragments, except for these two. I want to know if the lines on these fragments connect to the place I am looking for.

So, I can give you these two pieces, in exchange, you have to take us to see the rest of the pieces, I want to know what it looks like in its entirety.”

The surroundings fell into an eerie silence. Xie Yuchen was not in a hurry and just waited quietly for the result of Black Glasses' consideration.

He knew clearly that without the two fragments, it would be impossible for these people in front of him to obtain complete information.

If these people don't agree, he will just destroy the fragment. Anyway, the fragment is still in his hands. If he really wants to do something, these people will have no time to stop him.

The main point is that it is better to die in glory than to live in disgrace.

The man with black glasses kept watching the fragments that were being held in Xie Yuchen's hands and tossed up and down. He felt his heart almost in his throat, fearing that the man in the car would slip and the fragments would be gone.

"Okay, I promise you, but the rest of the fragments are in our camp. If you want to see them, just follow our car."

"A word is settled!"

Xie Yuchen put the fragments into the inside pocket of his clothes with swift movements and made a gesture of invitation to the man with black glasses.

The man with black glasses sighed helplessly, turned and walked towards Aning's men, negotiated with them for a while, and finally got them to nod in agreement.

The long line of vehicles sped forward. Xie Yuchen stared at the off-road vehicle in front of him and followed them at a moderate pace.

"Brother Xiaohua, if we follow them without permission, what if they outnumber us and surround us?"

Huo Xiuxiu asked worriedly, holding a piece of debris given to her by Xie Yuchen.

"It's okay. Just wait and see. If they try to rob you, just throw the fragments in your hand on the rocks."

"it is good."

Huo Xiuxiu nodded in agreement, holding the fragment tightly in her palm. This was the clue they had found with great difficulty. She didn't expect that someone had gotten the other fragments before them.

Xie Yuchen turned to look at Huo Xiuxiu and could see her worries and concerns at a glance.

He held the steering wheel with one hand and touched the top of her hair with the other hand, comforting her.

"It's okay, Xiuxiu. We'll slowly look for clues later. Besides, those people are not stupid and won't act rashly."

"Well, I'll listen to Brother Xiaohua."

The two smiled at each other, followed the vehicle in front, and gradually approached the camp where Aning was stationed.
