Tomb Raiders I Can Hear Antique Talk

Chapter 410 Streaming Celestial Dial Needle

Xiao Ran was so angry that he rushed over with his knife and raised his hand to chop at the back of the corpse's neck.But when the knife was halfway down, he was worried about his second uncle's safety, fearing that he would hurt him by using too much force, so he quickly stopped his efforts.

But after all, he underestimated the strength of Zisha when facing cold weapons. Even though he was a little stronger than ordinary people, he was still not the kind of immortal cultivator in fantasy, with the strength to be as fast as a finger.

The blade of the Guanshan knife hit Shi Sha's back, and there was a "clang" sound at the hairline. It only cut through the clothes and left a shallow gash on Shi Sha's skin, but it made his mouth numb. His hand almost let go of the knife.

Xiao Ran felt that this moment passed, his eyes were shaken out of focus, and his jaw shook, as if he had hit the tank with a sledgehammer.

Dimly, he remembered that he had fed the knife with blood when he was chopping corpses. Anyway, now that the Guanshan Sword was aligned with him, he no longer had any scruples. He turned the blade over and placed it in the palm of his hand, and gritted his teeth to pull it down.

"and many more……"

The second uncle's voice suddenly came, interrupting Xiao Ran's action of cutting his hand.The next second, the second uncle turned over and pressed the half of the corpse underneath.

The nails of the green-haired corpse were still dug into the shoulder sockets on both sides of the second uncle's shoulders, but there was no other movement.

"Second uncle!"

Although Xiao Ran didn't understand what happened for a moment, he instinctively judged that the second uncle had some kind of initiative at this time.Since the second uncle asked him to stop, he temporarily put aside the idea of ​​feeding the knife with blood and raised his flashlight to shine at the second uncle in a hurry.

But this photo made him freeze on the spot.

The second uncle was holding the pitch-black awl with both hands at this time, and half of the awl had already sunk into Shisha's chest.

Xiao Ran used [-]% of his strength and used the Guanshan knife to chop it down, it was just like manicure and scraping, but the awl in the second uncle's hand could penetrate the copper skin and iron bones of the corpse, which really made Xiao Ran unbelievable.

"Second uncle, you...this...is..."

Just as he was about to ask his second uncle what material the thing in his hand was made of, he saw his hands suddenly exert force and slowly twist the awl toward the left, making a "click" sound.

At the same time, something inexplicable happened that surprised Xiao Ran even more.As the second uncle twisted the awl, the green hair on Shi Sha's face gradually decreased, as if the scene of moldy food was turned upside down, and the fangs in Shi Sha's mouth and the sharp claws on his fingertips also shrank back together until The ferocious corpse transformed back into a half-dry mummy.

And this twisting seemed to take a lot of effort from the second uncle.He raised his head and yelled through the gas mask to Xiao Ran who was stunned on the spot: "What are you doing... give her a knife... or just give her that piece of shit... back..."

Xiao Ran's eyes moved from the mummy to the second uncle's face, and then to the second uncle's trembling hands holding the awl. Then he suddenly realized that he was about to chop off the head of the mummy with a knife.

But in an instant he changed his mind, took out the animal skin handkerchief from his pocket, stuffed the animal skin handkerchief into the hands of the mummy, looked both ways, picked up a thin vine and tied the hands of the mummy to ensure the skin The handkerchief no longer falls out.

All these tasks were completed, and the second uncle finally breathed a sigh of relief behind the mask. As his hand relaxed, the awl easily turned to the right and returned to its original position.After the second uncle removed the awl from the mummy, the wound where the awl had penetrated disappeared.

The circular hall finally returned to tranquility, only the large and small fluorites on the wall reflected the light of the flashlight in Xiao Ran's hand.

The second uncle sat slumped aside, gasping and speechless. Xiao Ran quickly squatted down and checked the second uncle's shoulder socket.

Fortunately, Shisha's nails had pierced the second uncle's cotton-padded clothes just now, and he was restrained in time.Apart from being squeezed and red, the second uncle's shoulder socket was not even scratched at all.

Now that the second uncle is fine, Xiao Ran's thoughts naturally return to the scene that just happened.He didn't know what the "method" his second uncle was talking about was really about.But he probably understood that the second uncle used the awl to force the "evil" of the corpse evil back.

As long as she puts back the activation switch of the zombie, which is the mummy's favorite thing when she was alive, or simply kills her while she is still a mummy, all the problems will be solved.

But how did the second uncle do it?Xiao Ran's eyes instinctively fell on the black awl again.

If you look closely at the awl now, it looks like an enlarged and elongated water droplet.There is a grip underneath the water-drop round head, but it seems to have broken off, leaving jagged gaps.He has known his second uncle for so many years, but he is not an expert in the Taoist sect, and has never heard him or anyone mention any other supernatural spells he has, so the problem must be with this awl.

He listened attentively, but the awl was still as simple and plain as its appearance, without any sound.He had no choice but to ask Bei Jiuguo secretly: "Xiaojiu, is this awl a magical tool? Why can't I hear his voice?"

After a while, Bei Jiuguo finally said, "This thing... is a divine weapon..."

Before he finished speaking, the second uncle suddenly said to Xiao Ran: "What are you looking at again in a daze? Just because you have so many weird friends, why can't I have a follower?"

Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment, and for a moment, he even thought that his second uncle heard the conversation between him and Bei Jiuguo.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the second uncle looked around and reached out to pick up a half-dried leaf. He wiped the black awl with disgust, put it back to his waist, and then slowly opened his mouth again.

"This thing... is a celestial dial needle... that can change time in a very small range... poke something... poke it in... phew... phew... clockwise means acceleration, counterclockwise means reverse flow... cough cough……"

When the second uncle said these words, he seemed to be unusually exhausted. After a brief introduction, he bent over and coughed violently.

Xiao Ran hurried over to give Second Uncle a pat on the back, and sighed: "Then put this thing on your body for a while, as long as you endure the pain, wouldn't you be able to rejuvenate?"

The second uncle also calmed down at this time, straightened up and looked at Xiao Ran.Through the transparent eyepatch of the gas mask, Xiao Ran felt that the second uncle's eyes seemed to be looking at a fool.

The second uncle took out two Red Lian Miaoxin Pills from his arms, handed one to Xiao Ran, then took off the gas mask and said, "Do you think you are smart? You will overdraw your life by using this thing, and I will overdraw at the same time." The future life span will rejuvenate while rejuvenating. Isn't it a tank that has water in and out at the same time? It has no meaning except a waste of resources? In the end, it is just a matter of dying at the age you want to die..."

Xiao Ran suddenly realized that when he looked at his second uncle, it seemed that in just such a short operation, a lot of white hair had appeared on his forehead. No wonder he was so tired just now.

"It seems that human lifespan is indeed determined by God..."

Xiao Ran sighed, it was probably nonsense and futile to say that it would help him prolong his life.

The second uncle put the Honglian Miaoxin Pill into his mouth and waved to Xiao Ran: "That's not true. I only discovered it later. People's life span is dynamic. For example, how many laps did you run today? How many laps did you originally have? Your life span may only be a few hours longer. Today you smoked a pack of cigarettes, drank a lot of wine, and lit a lamp to stay up all night playing mahjong. Tomorrow, your life span will be shortened by a day or two. So look at me, my second uncle. I just quit smoking and drinking, and for so many years I still insist on going to bed early, getting up early and exercising more... Hey, why are I nagging you about this? Just live how you like!"

Hearing this, Xiao Ran's originally disappointed mood cheered up again. It seemed that Deshao, Hu Bayi and the others would be eating and drinking indiscriminately from now on.

He also took off the gas mask, feeling that although there was a bit of stagnation in the air, it was much stronger than the smell of the industrial product in the mask.

What his second uncle said about reversing time through overdraft life reminded him of the bone-penetrating nail on Dumbledore's body.It seems that the second uncle's things are all related to lifespan, and they all have an evil nature.

While chewing the Red Lian Miaoxin Pills, he asked: "Second Uncle, this thing doesn't sound like a good thing. Where did you get it?"

The second uncle curled his lips and squinted: "Young boy, you have never seen the world. This thing is the first good thing from heaven to earth. I think your second uncle was the same back then... Hey, it's a long story. Let's start with it. Look what’s in this hall.”

Halfway through his words, the second uncle was unwilling to continue. He held up a flashlight and went to check the pillars in the hall and the mummies kneeling in front of him.Xiao Ran couldn't continue to ask any more questions, so he had to pack up his luggage and ask Bai Jiuguo at the same time: "You didn't finish what you just said, that thing is not a divine weapon? Why did my second uncle say that it is the first thing in heaven and earth?"

After Xiao Ran had tidied up his things, Li Jiuguo said, "That thing... I can't figure it out either. I always feel that it's not so much a divine weapon as it is a god... or part of a god..."

"Huh?" Xiao Ran said in surprise.

But as soon as Bei Jiuguo finished speaking, the second uncle in front suddenly shook his hand and the flashlight fell to the ground.
