Tomb Raider's Notes of Qilin City Lord

Chapter 203 Walkie Talkie

2032 Chapter [-] Walkie-Talkie

The fat man cursed softly, "Damn! This little voice is high and low, erratic. What the hell is this show? The dead are playing funeral drums and pretending to be corpses. It's not that stinky bitch who is making trouble with us. You must be a ghost."

Wu Xie said with very little confidence: "It's impossible, there are no ghosts in this world." But he looked at the surrounding environment. The midsummer night had a hint of coolness. Under the dim moonlight, there were many dark shadows in the dense forest, and it was quiet and eerie. There was a strange sound in the forest... I couldn't help but break out in white hair and sweat.

The fat man patted him. Wu Xie was startled and stared at him. The fat man smiled lightly and said, "It's not a ghost. Who is talking to that?"

Wu Xie looked at him and said, "I don't know." But he really didn't like the feeling here, so he said to them: "The moonlight here is dim, the ghosts are filled with mist, and the evil spirit is soaring. I think there must be something going on." If it happens, let’s leave quickly, I’m afraid we’ll suffer if we stay here. Pan Zi, you’ve been calculating for so long, where should we go now?”

Pan Zi's face was ashen, he pointed to the direction from which the sound came and said to them: "The problem is, the direction we want to move forward is the direction of the tree."

"Ah!?" Wu Xie was surprised, then froze, and said in disbelief: "Over there? Are you not mistaken?"

Pan Zi nodded, cocked the gun and said, "It was Sun Tzu by mistake. That's where the smoke was last seen before the fog started."

Wu Xie took a deep breath in fright, and immediately fainted.

The fat man stood up and gritted his teeth and said: "It's his grandma's! It's a blessing, not a curse. We can't avoid it. People blocked our road. They deliberately don't make it easy for us, but we are not easy to offend. Let's go. Just go and see what this thing is." He stood up and was about to go over.

Pan Zi immediately grabbed him, shook his head and said, "Don't be impulsive. First listen carefully to what she is saying?"

The fat man said disapprovingly: "What else can the lonely ghost say, other than to return my life?"

Pan Ziji said sternly: "Stop talking nonsense! Listen carefully, I'm not kidding you!"

For a while, the three of them stayed quiet, held their breath, and listened carefully.

This silence made the forest even more eerie and quiet. All three of them were feeling cold and their scalps were numb.

This sudden voice sounded sparse and not loud, like a woman talking to herself, or crying. The voice was sticky, and the tone was very strange, intermittent, and the tone was ambiguous.

The fat man frowned and said, "Are you calling for spring?"

Pan Zi patted him with the butt of his gun and said, "Don't talk nonsense, be serious."

Wu Xie frowned and listened, and finally heard something, and said to them: "How come this voice... seems to be calling my name?"

"Call your name? Why can't I hear it?" The fat man put his hand to his ear to listen hard.

"You're not calling me by my real name, you're calling me "Little Third Master". Listen carefully."

But the fat man didn't recognize it and shook his head at him.

After listening to it repeatedly, Wu Xie said categorically: "If you listen too carefully to this voice, it doesn't sound like anything. But when you listen to it, it is indeed calling my name. Even if it is not, it still sounds like it is calling my name. .”

Pan Zi nodded in agreement: "It sounds like it to me. How many women here know your name and would call you Mistress? I think this is really haunted. That lady Aning may feel that she died unjustly and doesn't want one." People die here and want to be buried with us."

Wu Xie shook his head and said, "Is it possible that she is still alive?"

The fat man didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said to him: "Boss, when you carried her to the mouth of the canyon, she was dead. What you call a zombie." He said "Ah" in a ghostly voice, stretched out his arms, and tilted his head. Make very weird expressions and movements.

Wu Xie also understood that he saw clearly at that time that Aning's death was very certain, and there were no possible detours at all.The examination was very careful at that time, and it was so clear that my heart felt cold again.

Pan Zi said: "I think this dead woman wants to lure us there. We must not be fooled. You follow me and we will find a way to go there. The situation there is unknown. There may be a lot of venomous snakes, and the situation is strange and abnormal. Go Can’t get better.”

Wu Xie looked at the fat man and asked, "What do you think?"

Suddenly the fat man also muttered. He thought about it very seriously. His eyes kept rolling as he thought. He cleared his throat and said, "Oh my god, it's not you, fat man. I regret it. This time Da Pan is right." , We have too few guys at hand, we really need to be more relaxed, even if we are fighting ghosts, we still have to see who the ghost is, and if it is really Aning, I won’t be able to do it."

Although Wu Xie felt uncomfortable, he understood that what Fatty and Pan Zi said made sense. He sighed and nodded to them.

The fat man patted him and said, "It's done, let's set off."

After that, Pan Zi determined the route and tried to bypass the area where the sound came from. The three of them continued on their way cautiously.

They were on tenterhooks and cautious all the way. They didn't even dare to turn on the miner's lamp too brightly. They even covered the lamp head with a cloth, for fear of disturbing the unknown thing. They had a sneaky feeling... just relying on the haziness. The dim light struggled to pass through the gaps in the trees.

The area that made the weird sound was actually not far away from them, and the sound kept lingering in their ears.

As they got closer and closer to the voice, Wu Xie found that the voice sounded less and less like a voice.

The sound was very crisp, the rhythm was very regular, and it kept repeating. As he listened, Wu Xie suddenly felt that he had heard this sound somewhere before, and immediately whispered to them: "Wait, wait, wait, this sound... …I seem to have thought of something.”

Fatty and Pan Zi stopped and looked at him with puzzled faces. He suddenly thought of it and said to them: "I know! This seems to be the sound of the walkie-talkie on Aning's body!"

The fat man asked: "Walkie-talkie? This fat man doesn't know much about it. Please tell me."

Wu Xie said: "A Ning has been carrying a walkie-talkie with her. I have never seen her take it out of her pocket. This kind of walkie-talkie is waterproof, fire-proof and drop-proof. It is not easy to break and can be used continuously for three weeks. There is no need to charge. It is very likely that Aning has always turned it on. Think about it, if you cover the microphone mouth of the walkie-talkie with a wet cloth and add static noise, will it sound similar to this sound? "

The fat man shook his head: "I don't know, what about you Da Pan?"

Pan Zi thought for a while and nodded sharply: "The third master is right. Put it this way, they are really similar."

The fat man asked: "What do you mean, who is calling her now? But the radio signal in the jungle is very weak and cannot propagate over a long distance."

Wu Xie said: "But she is on the canopy now. If the other party is also on the canopy, or in the extension of the canyon, then it is still possible to receive the signal.

The signal is intermittent, indicating that the walkie-talkie is on the automatic frequency search function. Obviously there is a radio frequency here that is being used. Pan Zi, did my third uncle bring something like a walkie-talkie this time? "

"Third Master will definitely not use this kind of thing, because there will never be a situation where several groups disperse when going to the sand. Generally, there is only one fight. It's good to be able to go down. But there is a radio in the car." Pan Zi suddenly said What came to mind: "Oh! I understand. Maybe those people in the camp outside also saw the red smoke. Maybe the third master had some agreement with them and they were making arrangements."

Wu Xie looked in the direction of the sound and said to them: "If this is the case, we have to get that walkie-talkie so that we can talk to the people in the Gobi and know their travel plan. After all, the third uncle suddenly changed his plan. It was so sudden, why did he enter the center of the swamp before us, and also, when we leave, we can also ask them to take over, maybe we can go up directly from the cliff."

The fat man became excited when he heard it and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Since it's not a ghost, we don't need to be polite."

Pan Zi shook his head and said: "No, no, there are no ghosts and there are snakes. There are branches all around. If someone suddenly jumps out of the darkness and bites you, then you will really become a ghost."

The fat man said: "I didn't bring any snake medicine, and little girl Xiaoxun didn't come back either. I remember that the little girl's medicine can detoxify, at least it can relieve the pain. Oops~ It seems that I really need to bring enough of everything in the future. It was a mistake." That’s it…”

Pan Zi said: "Is this kind of snake really a snake? I don't think they are necessarily afraid of snake medicine. As for Miss Xiaoxun's medicine, we only know that it can detoxify the poison of the corpse frog, but the poison of the corpse frog cannot be poisoned by this thing."

The fat man said to Pan Zi: "Why do you talk so sadly? No matter what, it is an antidote. It is better than the three of us doing nothing. Next time, we have no objection to the girl chasing the little brother, but we have to ask her to save some." Once the medicine is gone, where do you think we can find them? And, Da Pan, what is that thing if it’s not a snake? An eel?"

Pan Zi suddenly said in a confused voice: "We say over there that things can become charms if they live for a long time. These may be snake charms that can confuse people's hearts. This ancient city was built with these things, specifically to attract people to come in and be eaten. . If the guarantee is not complete, this is a trap. We’d better not get past it.”

The fat man patted him and said, "You have read too many books on feudal superstition, and you have been poisoned deeply. What you are saying is more evil than what I am saying about ghosts. This snake is a snake, and if it has a higher IQ, it is just a snake." Snakes, we humans are advanced animals, the spirits of all things, and we are afraid of some big worms."

At this point, the fat man rolled his eyes and said: "Hey, do you think this will work? Most animals are afraid of fire. You take off all your clothes. I will use your clothes to cover all parts of my body and get wet." After that, I poured soju on it, lit it, and rushed over. These snakes would definitely not dare to bite a Pyroman. I took the walkie-talkie, then came back and jumped into the swamp. It would not take more than 2 minutes."

Wu Xie immediately said: "No, I asked you to use your brain. Are you going to let us run naked in the woods with walkie-talkies? And what if you get burned to death? We still need you to transport equipment and light the fire. Things are too dangerous.”

The fat man said, "How can it be so easy to be burned to death?"

Pan Zi hurriedly said: "We are all wearing waterproof and breathable fiber clothes, but they dry out as soon as they are baked. You can burn yourself into a fire without pouring alcohol on them. This will definitely not work."

When the plan failed, the fat man came up with another plan and said: "Hey, maybe we can just set a fire under the tree, pile wet wood on it, burn up the smoke and smoke out all the snakes, so as to avoid a direct conflict with them."

Wu Xie nodded and said: "This is indeed a method, much more reliable than the one just now.

When the fat man heard that Wu Xie agreed, he smiled and said, "Look, Fatty, I am the smarter, so hurry up and collect the wet firewood, and Da Pan will help."

Pan Zi said "Oh", grabbed them both again and said, "I still don't think it's right, let's forget it." At this time, his face was pale and he was trembling slightly when he spoke, and he seemed to be a little guilty.

Wu Xie felt a little strange and asked, "Pan Zi, did you see something just now?"

Pan Zi nodded, looking a little hesitant to speak, then paused and said: "There is definitely something wrong with that corpse, we can't even get past it if we kill it."

The fat man asked a little anxiously: "What the hell did you see?"

Pan Zi's ability to express himself in Mandarin was very poor. He and Fatty would definitely not understand him in dialect, but he couldn't express himself clearly in Mandarin. He hesitated for a long time and said: "I...I saw it on the tree. I saw it." That Aning is twisted and swaying..."

The fat man suddenly asked: "Are you trying to say that you saw Aning, that girl, like a snake, sticking out from the canopy of the tree and looking at us?"

Pan Zi nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, that's it, huh? How the hell do you know?"

The fat man pointed behind them with a livid face. Wu Xie immediately realized something was wrong and immediately turned around with Pan Zi. In an instant, he almost lost his breath.

In the shadow of the tree next to them, behind the bushes under the tree, there was a shadow that looked like both a snake and a man.

The shadow squatted quietly five or six meters away from them, and the soft sound of the walkie-talkie was still ringing from the thing...

The fat man groaned and shouted: "Oh my god, when did she come over?"

Wu Xie took two steps back in fright and lowered his voice: "No, listen to this sound, it's the same as what we heard just now. Damn it, we felt that we were getting closer and closer to this sound just now. It might be an illusion, not us. We are closer to the sound, but the sound is closer to us.”

All three of them were trembling, nervously swallowing uncontrollably, and their calves were trembling.

The fat man lowered his body and wanted to use the lamp to shine on the figure, but Pan Zi quickly held down his hand: "Don't fucking act rashly. You should listen carefully to your surroundings first."

At this time, Wu Xie and Fatty calmed down and listened carefully to the movements around them. They found that there were extremely faint and sparse sounds in the surrounding tree crowns. They seemed to be surrounded by this sound.
