Tomb Raiders I Can Hear Antique Talk

Xiao Ran quickly followed his second uncle. After walking a few dozen meters, the passage ahead began to fork.

The second uncle looked at the passages on both sides, hesitating about the direction to go, but Xiao Ran felt that the road in front of him was very familiar, and he had just walked in his dream.

Following his still vivid memory, he chose the left path.The second uncle just looked at him with a slightly confused look, didn't say anything more, and followed him consciously.

In front of Xiao Ran's eyes, those pigeons running and leading the way seemed to appear again.He turned one corner after another, choosing the path in his mind at one or more forks.

After walking about 200 meters, there were three forks ahead again.The second uncle finally couldn't hold it any longer, walked forward quickly, stopped in front of Xiao Ran and asked: "How do you know which way to go? I won't ask you and I won't tell you. We won't be where we are now. Spin around?"

Xiao Ran couldn't explain it to his second uncle. He couldn't say that he knew it after being unconscious for a few minutes and wandering in his dream, right?Did you still see yourself in your dream?Moreover, he seemed to have said something outrageous, and it sounded like he was asking him to risk his life to stop someone. If his second uncle knew about this, he would inevitably be worried.

But when his second uncle asked him, he had a glimmer of hope. Maybe it was just a coincidence. Maybe every road would work. This would prove that the previous dream might just be a dream, at least. Not that serious.

And that old man and the extra celestial dial needle... no matter what, it was all just a coincidence!

So he nodded hesitantly and said to his second uncle: "Then let's try walking on another road..."

So this time, Xiao Ran chose the passage to the right of his second uncle. The two of them carefully walked forward for more than 20 meters, turned a corner, and stopped in place.

In front of them, countless huge root systems of varying thicknesses, mixed with gray-white stuff that might be thick fungi or stones, completely blocked the road.

The two looked at each other and could only turn back and walk forward along the middle road.This time, after walking for another five to sixty meters, the second uncle gradually stood up from being slightly rickety, looking a bit arrogant, as if he was telling Xiao Ran with his body language that he could choose me.

But just as they turned a nearly right-angled corner, the second uncle's body suddenly sank straight down.With quick eyesight and quick hands, Xiao Ran grabbed the second uncle's collar. At the same time, he bent his knees and lowered his center of gravity, and then he caught the second uncle who was falling.

Under the second uncle's body, there was a hole as wide as the floor of the passage.The hole is not deep, about five or six meters, and within the reach of a flashlight, there is no passage to the next level. There are only natural protruding spikes of different thicknesses and lengths, and some animal bones scattered throughout.

After crossing the hole for only two or three meters, this passage also came to an end.

Xiao Ran took a deep breath and quickly pulled his second uncle up.The uncle and nephew sat on the ground and looked at each other in silence. After a few seconds, Xiao Ran asked carefully: "Second uncle, if I say that I dreamed of the right path, would you believe it..."

"Hey! I didn't tell you earlier! No wonder, you dreamed it...you don't have enough dreams..."

The second uncle found a step for himself at the right time. After all, according to past experience, Xiao Ran was mentally sensitive. He could hear the antique talking and could naturally sense other things.

The two had no choice but to turn around and go back again, following the path Xiao Ran chose at the beginning and taking the left passage.Xiao Ran's heart became gloomy again. This was once again confirming that everything that happened when he was in a coma was not a dream.

So what happened to him when he saw him?Who is the "him" that he calls himself?What exactly do you want to prevent and defeat?
Maybe that person is the real owner of this body?Now it seems that this is the most reasonable...unreasonable answer.

For the current plan, we can only take one step at a time.After walking through several forks again, Xiao Ran's heart suddenly jumped up and started beating wildly.If this is really the road in the dream, then he will see himself in the dream again later, and the Blood Pagoda with the black tower as its shell.

And without the help of the worms, how could he open the door to the non-Newtonian fluid...

"Look! There is a hole in front of you!" the second uncle suddenly shouted.

Xiao Ran, who was just looking left and right and wandering in a fugue, followed the light of his second uncle's flashlight and saw that the hole that had appeared in his dream was stopping at the end of the passage, and the large dark space behind it swallowed up the light of the flashlight.

Xiao Ran forced himself to calm down and walked quickly towards the entrance of the cave.A rustling crawling sound suddenly sounded, and then quickly dispersed into the black hole until it disappeared.He made a rough guess in his mind, walked to the entrance of the cave, and shined his flashlight on the edge of the cave.On the walls of the gray-white mycoplasm, there are still gelatinous substances that look like fat scraps.On the ground in front, a piece of non-Newtonian fluid, like a flatbread, was slowly spreading out.

It seemed that the deer had just chewed through the door before they arrived.The scorpions don't seem to want to meet them. I don't know if they are disgusted with something, or they are afraid of something...

"Xiaoran...I..."

The second uncle's voice sounded behind him. Xiao Ran turned around, only to see his second uncle holding his head and closing his eyes, his body swaying slowly. He rushed over to support his second uncle.After a while, the second uncle slowly stood up, opened his eyes and said to him with a somewhat complicated look: "I seem to have remembered something again. The place we are looking for is in this door. I have to go in and see if I can Thinking of more..."

Xiao Ran nodded, and after the second uncle made sure that he was fine, the two of them carefully stepped into the cave entrance.

Xiao Ran already knew the structure inside the cave entrance.

The spherical space, the top and the walls are covered with holes of all sizes. All roads should lead here. Just like in a dream, this is the center of the entire Tongtian Tai Sui.

Not surprisingly, the center of this space is the towering black tower of the Blood Pagoda, the corpses everywhere around it, and...that myself.

Xiao Ran's breathing gradually became heavier. As he walked through the thick roots and branches everywhere, he seemed to be able to vaguely see a thick original host-like object in the center.

But the further he walked toward the center, the more strange he felt. According to what he saw in his dream, he should have been able to see the bones at this time, but there were only roots and vines, dead branches and broken soil on the ground, and not even a fingernail could be seen.

He couldn't help but slow down, but his second uncle seemed to be possessed, and walked towards the center mechanically without looking at him.

Xiao Ran reacted and was shocked. If the demon-like self suddenly appeared again and launched an attack with an engineering shovel, his second uncle would not be as skilled as him.

He quickly speeded up and ran towards his second uncle, but unexpectedly, his second uncle suddenly started stumbling towards the center of the hall.Xiao Ran quickened his pace, holding the handle of the knife in one hand, and the flashlight of the other hand was firmly locked on the second uncle.

Just when he could see the huge black thing in the center with his naked eyes, he suddenly felt something strange. Then he saw his second uncle suddenly kneeling to the ground with a "thud". He took out a worn notebook from his clothes and looked at it carefully. Then he raised his hand tremblingly and pointed forward.

"This is it! I have an impression. Although it's not exactly the same, it's right here..."

Xiao Ran quickly ran to his second uncle's side, and saw that his uncle's face was pale and flushed with excitement, his eyes were wide open, and his raised hands were trembling slightly.

Xiao Ran quickly moved the flashlight forward to the thing standing in the center of the hall, but the sight in front of him was completely beyond his expectation, and he couldn't help but froze on the spot.

There was no black tower, no people, and no crudely built shacks. Instead, there was a huge tilted disk resting on the ground in the center.There is an equally huge black shuttle-like object hanging above the disc. The tapering parts at the upper and lower ends of the lock are connected to the top and lower discs of the hall respectively, making this thing in the center of the hall look like a It looks like a giant dumbbell that is twisted and deformed, and the handle is swollen.

"This... is wrong... the place is right, but what is up there..."

The second uncle murmured to himself next to him. Xiao Ran glanced at the second uncle's notebook and saw a simple picture drawn with a pencil on the page that the second uncle opened.

It was in a cave, with a sundial-like disk sitting in the middle, just like the base of the huge dumbbell in front of me.
