Tomb Raider's Notes of Qilin City Lord

Chapter 228 Sound
228 Chapter 228 Voice

The little brother was already squatting in another dry shaft. After hearing my message, he walked inside.

He stopped before walking far, and saw a vague white shadow in front of him. The shadow seemed to be a human figure with a strange head shape, squatting in the thick black. In the mist, it was like waiting for the little brother to arrive.

The white shadow noticed the little brother's arrival, tilted his head, and then began to move in the direction where the little brother was staying. After a while, the white shadow became clearer and clearer.

A man covered in white and wearing a gas mask came out of the darkness and said to him, "Hey, are you alone? Something happened?"

"Come with me to save people." After saying that, the little brother turned around and left. The man in white clothes chuckled, followed behind and muttered: "Trouble."

The little brother said as he walked: "The girl said that Wu Xie and Fatty are at the reservoir. They are not together. You go and bring Wu Xie over. Fatty was bitten by a snake. I will go find him." He followed without two steps. He jumped back into the water.

Bai Yi took off the gas mask on his head, placed it at the entrance of the shaft, turned around and jumped in.

Wu Xie's light swayed left and right as he observed the situation in the reservoir. He soon discovered that the water flow here was much slower and continued to flow in one direction. Follow him and follow the flow. Following the current, he swam towards the well wall ahead.

Wen Jin and I were in a dry shaft relatively close to the beast's mouth here, but from the position above, he probably wouldn't look over, but Wen Jin and I still hid inside.

Soon, he came to the beast's head, and he discovered that the water here also flows into the beast's mouth. The shape of this beast is different from the one above. This reservoir should be used to store floods and prevent the well walls from flooding. It was washed away too much and was used for diversion.

The beast's mouth is surrounded by dead branches that have washed down from the swamp over the years and accumulated here. It is like a huge mountain, almost blocking the place. Most of it is thorns, and it still looks a bit ferocious.

Wu Xie saw that the branch holding him was also stuck on it, and there was something hanging on it. He took a closer look and found that it turned out to be the fat man.

I was just guessing just now, but under his light, I vaguely saw a fat silhouette hanging over there. The sound of something falling that Wen Jin and I heard was really a fat man. No wonder it wasn't "Plop." "The sound of falling into the water like "gudong", it turned out that he was hanging on the branch and came down with the branch.

Wu Xie fluttered a few times and swam toward the pile of dead branches. He probably wanted to rescue Fatty from those messy branches.However, the branches are too dense and the place is extremely dark, making it difficult to see clearly further away.

After Wu Xie swam there, he looked like a fat man. He found that the vines on the fat man's body were stuck in the tangled branches outside the branches, and the fat man happened to be resting on top.

Wu Xie quickly dived into the water under the branches, and soon reached the fat man's side. At first glance, he became even more worried. The fat man's face was now completely green, his breath was weak, and his pulse could hardly be felt. Wu Xie hurriedly dived under the water again, hugged his feet, put his feet on a dead branch, and pushed his stomach with his shoulders so that he could spit out the muddy water he drank.

After a few pushes, the fat man vomited it out, and Wu Xie used his elbow to massage his chest. Unexpectedly, the fat man reacted to the water and coughed for a while.

Wu Xie was overjoyed and thought, there is a way to react. He immediately pushed hard again, but after a few times he lost the strength, so he had to get up and take a breath.

He knew that this was not going to work. The fat man would die if he did not receive artificial respiration, so he thought that he would have to be dragged out of the water, and he had to lie down on a branch first.

But it was very difficult for Wu Xie to directly lift the fat man up. He had to climb onto the pile of dead branches before putting him down.

However, the branches on the edge did not have enough support, and the branches inside were rotten and soft, and could not bear the force at all.

There were too many thorns on these branches. If he moved a little harder, he would hit the sharp thorns, which was so painful that he shed tears.

He tried for a few minutes, all within two to three steps. The branches were broken by him and he slipped down. Moreover, such climbing could easily cause the branches to roll over, and the fat man would probably fall. He will be pushed into the water by himself. When the time comes, he will not be able to save him, but may even kill him. In that case, he will be killed by himself.

Wu Xie was a little desperate. He found that with his own strength, he would never be able to climb up from this position. In fact, there was only half a meter away from the water. However, this half meter seemed like a vast chasm, out of reach. Usually, he can't get past it.

Suddenly I saw some strange water ripples on the water in front of me. It felt like something was swimming over, and it didn't make much noise. At this moment, there was another wave of water ripples behind me. , also swam this way, I was a little nervous, but I thought it might be the little brother who brought someone here, Wen Jin shrank back and hid in the darkness.

At this moment, two heads emerged from the water. I took a closer look. One was the little brother, and the other was... I smiled when I saw him. I said to myself, I just thought, the little brother is You have to bring him with you.

The little brother asked me softly: "Where are they?" I stretched out my hand and pointed at them and said softly: "They are all over there."

Following them, he went back into the water and dived in.

Wu Xie was feeling depressed and complicated at the moment. He suddenly felt as if God was playing tricks on him.

My hands were all broken, so I couldn't do it recklessly, so I held the fat man up, took out his dagger to cut off the vines, and moved the pile of branches to the side, trying to find if there was an easier place to climb on the rock wall here. It would be best if there is a place where you can join hands.

There was no way to reverse the flow here, so he used his strength to help the fat man go around the protruding thorn-like branches. Suddenly, he noticed a dry well entrance on the rock wall. If there was no water flowing out there, it must be blocked. He took a closer look. Look, there are quite a few shaft entrances like this, but they are all at a very high position. He can only reach the nearest one in front of him, so he was overjoyed, so he leaned over, put the fat man aside, and then grabbed it himself. Stay in the gap between the rocks and climb up.

At this time, the little brother and the others had quietly sneaked over. Just when they were near Wu Xie, they discovered that Wu Xie had been targeted, not far behind him. The situation seemed to be very bad. The little brother suddenly felt anxious. When they got up, they couldn't make too much noise, so they had to continue to approach Wu Xie and Fatty quietly.

According to the original plan, the little brother went to save the fat man, but Wu Xie kept staring at the fat man and could not take action. At this moment, Wu Xie was crawling into the dry shaft, so the little brother and the others had to hide under a branch to worry.

When Wu Xie was halfway up, he knew that this was possible, and couldn't help but laugh out loud. Then he gritted his teeth and wanted to rush up quickly.

The two brothers were helpless, because the fatal thing was that the thing that was targeting Wu Xie had already started to move, but Wu Xie didn't notice it at all, so they had to act according to the situation.

At this moment, the fat man beside him suddenly moved and said: "No time!"

Wu Xie was startled. He turned his head sharply and saw that the fat man didn't move at all, nor did he have any expression. He rubbed his temples with confusion on his face, thinking that it was over, was he hearing hallucinations again?

Suddenly, another clear human voice came from behind the fat man, and the voice said: "There is no time."

In this dark and unlikely environment, the voice was so abrupt that Wu Xie was caught off guard and broke into a cold sweat.

He cautiously stopped moving and looked behind the fat man. However, the back was filled with piles of dry branches, which were not clearly intertwined. The light was poor, so he could not see anything clearly.

He just felt that the most likely person was the third uncle, and it was possible that the person who called him before was also rushed down?Moreover, it seems that he is talking to someone else, maybe more than one person...

He simply asked: "Who is there?" Then he narrowed his eyes and looked hard in that direction.

However, after waiting for a while, he found that there was silence behind the fat man. The beast's mouth was covered by the branches and seemed to be frozen. There was no movement. He immediately felt an ominous premonition in his heart and became alert.

Wu Xie touched a long wooden stick on the side, picked it up, held it, and then slowly leaned there.But after walking a few steps, he heard another faint voice coming from deep among the branches: "Little Third Master?"

Unexpectedly, just when the two brothers were thinking about how to avoid those things and take them away quietly, Wu Xie said, "It's me!" He immediately went over to open up the gap between the branches, and while doing so, Wu Xie said, "It's me!" He also asked: "Who is inside? Is he trapped? Don't worry, I will rescue you right away!!"

The two of them looked at it impatiently and helplessly. It could be said that they couldn't laugh or cry, but they couldn't rush over if there was too much movement. The thing might be frightened.

The one from deep asked again: "Little Third Master?"

Wu Xie shouted: "It's me!!! It's me!!" He dug a hole out of the pile of branches and stuck his head through the gap between the branches to find the person deep inside.

But he dug a long distance and saw no one. There were all rotten branches inside. He inadvertently cursed in Changsha dialect and said: "Hey, mom, who is in there?" What the hell? Just tell me where you are."

After getting no response several times, he felt that something was wrong again. The man's voice didn't sound like he was injured or unable to move. He thought about several possibilities. He was poisoned and his consciousness was blurred, or he was... He was hit by the current and his head was broken. Can't you hear what he said?
He simply didn't call him, so he gritted his teeth and dug in, hoping to find him before talking.

This pile of branches is about six or seven meters high. Although it doesn't look big, it is quite difficult to dig a hole in it to find something. The hand itself is already broken, so I endured the severe pain to pick up the branches with my hands. Two or three minutes passed before a space was dug out. He immediately leaned over and looked towards the place where the sound came from.
