Tomb Raider's Notes of Qilin City Lord

Chapter 201 The First Night

201 2 First Night

After that, the little brother took me forward along the terrain, mainly to find a place to rest. In this section of the forest here, the water in the swamp under my feet was very fast, and the terrain was getting lower and lower.

The little brother suddenly said: "Trouble."

I tilted my head and asked him, "What's wrong?"

"It's too humid here. If you want to rest, you have to go up a tree." He said while looking at the surrounding trees.

I said to him: "We can rest in the wooden house. I have also established a connection point. We can go to Qilin City and Qilin Pavilion."

The younger brother shook his head and said, "But in that case, if Wu Xie and the others make any noise again, we won't be able to hear it."

I thought for a moment and said, "That's right...it's hard to tell the direction even if you're watching a video in a place like this." Then I looked at him and said to him, "Anyway, I listen to you. It's a tree, it's a tree. You stay with me." That’s it.”

The little brother said: "Before sunset, we must get out of the water and find a place to rest." He looked at me, pulled me to continue walking, and said to me: "Let's go."

We walked all the way looking for it, and finally before the sun went down, the little brother saw a short tree that was not too tall, had many branches, and could build a platform in the center of the tree. He stretched out his hand and shook the tree, and it felt quite strong. , and stared at it for a moment.He said to me: "I'm going to get some materials and come over and build a platform here."

I asked him: "Do you want me to help you?"

The little brother patted my head and said, "I won't go far, wait for me here." I nodded obediently and watched him find the materials.

The little brother found a lot of thick, straight and strong branches around, and used black gold to cut off the small twigs and raised bumps on them, leaving a smooth main trunk.I also cut some vines, which were about three or four millimeters thick, to tie the branches, and brought them to the edge of the tree.

He interspersed the long straight branches he found between the forks of the trees, and tied them firmly to the branches with overhand knots made of vines.

He asked me to just wait aside. I watched him tie knots with vines. I also took a vine and knitted it for fun. But I didn’t know what to knit, so I just looked at the small twisted flowers on the bracelet on my left hand. The pattern should be like a knot, so I tried to knit it.

After a while, the little brother made a bed base that was strong enough to support the weight of the two of us. The simpler way is to just find some soft vegetation or large leaves and spread it on it to make a platform. .However, there are not large leaves nearby, and the small leaves are relatively tall. Moreover, there are likely to be a large number of insects attached to the plants that are too fine. Although Qilin Blood is not afraid of poisonous insects, resting on the insect nest is still not enough.

So I decided to make a wooden bed board directly, so I found a lot of smooth, long, thick branches and vines, put them together and tied them together, and made a relatively flat and strong bed board, which I fixed on it.

The little brother climbed up and gave it a try, then shouted: "Girl, come up."

I looked up and said, "Wow~ Brother, you did a great job. If we leave tomorrow, it would be a pity to leave it here." As I said that, I reached out and patted it, and then said to him: "Before setting off tomorrow, I'm going to transport it to the garden of our cabin." After saying that, he narrowed his eyes and giggled.

The little brother stretched out his hand to pull me up. After I sat down, I took out the small lighting moon and the heater from my unicorn pocket.

I said, "Oh! That's right." I took the knitted thing and said to him, "Give me your wrist."

The little brother knew that I had been playing for a long time and didn't know what I had done. He just stretched out his left arm in front of me very cooperatively.I wrapped the knitted thing around his wrist, remembered the length, cut it, and finished it. Then I put the knitted thing on his wrist and said to him: "Okay."

The little brother looked at me and the vine bracelet. He was stunned for a moment and said to me slightly seriously: "Do you know what kind of knot this is?"

I shook my head and said, "I don't know, but the bracelet you gave me has this pattern on it. Is there anything wrong with it?"

The little brother said: "Can you make this up as a farewell gift?"

I replied very simply: "Of course not. You gave me something with this pattern, so I will give you something with the same pattern. I will not give it to anyone else until I find a better one." I’ll use the materials to make you a stronger and better-looking one, okay?”

The little brother looked at me with soft eyes and said: "From now on, this kind of knot cannot be given to anyone except me."

I replied very simply: "Yes, I will only give it to you, and I will never give it to anyone else."

I suddenly asked him: "Brother, you know this knot, what does this bracelet mean?"

The little brother raised his lips slightly and said, "I don't remember." I pursed my lips, got up a little, lay on him and looked at him and said, "You're lying, you obviously know it." He deliberately turned his head and lowered his head slightly, but His expression was very soft, and for a moment, I felt like he was snickering inside.After he followed him, he turned back, stretched out his hand to support me, asked me to sit down, and said to me: "Take off your shoes and socks first. Your legs and feet will be damaged if they are soaked in water for a long time." As he said this, he took off my shoes. Take it off.

After returning to the woods, they followed the decreasing terrain and waded through the increasingly turbulent water, moving forward quietly.

They can always hear the sound of waterfalls around them, but they can only hear the sound but not see it.

Although their physical strength had reached the limit, Pan Zi was impatient and walked extra fast along the way. Wu Xie and Fatty gritted their teeth and persisted.They walked for four or five hours without even stopping to eat. The three of them ate and walked.

Soon after, they came to a fault waterfall where the terrain suddenly dropped.

They followed the water flow through the waterfall, and found behind the waterfall that the water here seemed to seep into the ground, and the vegetation here was denser, with almost no gaps for passage, and even the sky could not be seen.

They were crowded together with various kinds of vegetation, and reluctantly moved forward for a certain distance. They could no longer distinguish between east, west and north. In order to avoid going astray, Pan Zi asked everyone to stop and climbed up a tree to identify the direction. He adjusted the compass and Wu Xie and Fatty took this opportunity to lean against the tree and catch their breath.

Soon Pan Zi pointed out the direction and said to them: "We are close to the Third Master and the others, let's leave quickly." Wu Xie and Fatty looked at each other, their hearts were broken at this moment, but Pan Zi seemed to have been beaten It was like chicken blood, urging them to move on.

Wu Xie stood up reluctantly. The fat man saw his face turned pale and said, "Da Pan, why don't we take a rest before setting off? You look so naive and you can't stand it anymore."

But Pan Zi said: "Keep going, you won't be able to rest, no matter how hard you endure it."

The fat man looked at Wu Xie's pale little face and felt a little distressed, but he had no choice. He really couldn't rest well now. He knew that Wu Xie was exhausted, so he had to keep talking to him along the way to divert his attention.

The surrounding scenery was extremely monotonous, and there was nothing to talk about, but this little thing could not stop the fat man. The fat man looked at the things in the water and asked: "Xiao Wu, you said that the water flooded the broken house, is there any clear answer?" Tool?"

Wu Xie said: "Based on the exploration experience in the ancient city of Loulan, there are naturally some things, but this ancient city is flooded. You don't have to think about things like silk and bamboo slips. They have been soaked to death. Are there pots and pans?" There may be some left by then. What do you want to do? Maybe your hands are itchy again."

The fat man hurriedly said: "It's not itchy, how can you look at me, fat man, with the eyes of stagnant development? Our goal this time is to get a big one. I will retire when I get the things. These bottles and cans How much is it worth? We have to find something that can be put up for auction at BJ Hotel."

Wu Xie glanced at him, sighed and said, "There are so many annoying things now, and you still have time to worry about this."

After a period of time, Wu Xiejue's vision became increasingly blurry, things in the distance gradually became blurry, and the trees became blurry.He thought to himself, is he about to faint? This would be really embarrassing.

The fat man said: "Damn it, why is it foggy?"

Wu Xie listened hard and felt like he was going to faint.I quickly calmed myself down, rubbed my eyes and looked around, and found that it was indeed fog. The forest in the distance was completely invisible. The surrounding area was covered with gray. Even the trees a few meters away in front of me turned into trees one by one. Strange shadow.He said very puzzledly: "When did this fog get up? I seem to feel a cold breath..."

I said to the little brother: "I think we should install a larger protective shield here so that we can have a more solid rest. You said it would be terrible if the weather changes or something falls from above. How about that?" Yes, brother, we have installed a protective shield. Can we clean up the mud first? It will feel uncomfortable when it is stuck on us. Let’s wipe it off when we are on our way.” I clenched my two small fists in front of my chest and winked at him. Looking forward to his agreement.

The younger brother said calmly: "Okay."

I was so excited that I immediately waved my hand and opened a large eggshell-shaped protective cover, covering the entire small tree.

Then I rubbed my little hands together like applying soap, closed my eyes, and thought about becoming white, fragrant, and clean. Then I patted my hands three times, and my little brother and I were lathered by my light golden soap. We were surrounded by bubbles, and in the blink of an eye, we both returned to our normal self.

At the same time, the long hair that I pulled behind my head suddenly spread out with a "swish" without my warning. At that moment, the black and soft hair seemed to be blown by the breeze. Like a gauze, it hangs down naturally.

At that moment, I felt my brother's eyes suddenly light up. He looked at me blankly, thinking, maybe it's because I look like this, and I look different from how I usually feel. So I asked him: "I look like this, Does it look good?"

He kept staring at me with soft eyes, and winked at me with the corner of his mouth raised slightly. Although it was just a look, it was so beautiful in my heart that my face immediately turned red.

He looked at me for a short time, stretched out his hand and stroked my hair gently, and said to me gently: "Come, turn around, I will comb it for you."

I obediently turned around, and he helped me pull up my long hair again.

After that, I prepared some delicious food and drinks, and then hid in his arms early and had a solid rest.
