Notes on Tomb Raiders of Liu Bowen's Descendants

Chapter 48
Under Lao Li's scolding, the three shrank behind him and walked towards the house.Lao Li pushed open the door, stood still first, and then looked in from the outside.

Few people who grew up in the countryside have never heard of ghost stories or local legends. It is almost impossible to say that they do not believe them at all.The light in the room was dim, and Lao Li looked at it. Except for the materials, it was the shadows of himself on the ground under the reflection of the light.

"There's not even a shadow of a ghost, what's your name!" Lao Li shot back at Xiao San, "Hurry up and get to work!"

Lin San and the two small workers looked and looked again to make sure there was nothing unusual, rubbed their eyes and walked into the room.Lao Li hummed in satisfaction, looked left and right inadvertently, and suddenly found a shadow that had not been there just now appeared on the wall to the left of the door of the house. Floating slightly on the wall.The great fear and tension made Lao Li dumbfounded.

This is obviously not the shadows of several of them, and they mysteriously appeared on this wall completely contrary to common sense.Lao Li felt his throat dry, and let out a low moan from his throat like a chicken whose throat had been cut.As if the shadow on the wall suddenly broke through the wall, it quickly passed Lao Li's body, and then appeared on the wall on the right.

Lao Li uttered an inhuman scream, felt that the blood in his body was about to freeze, and passed out.The three people heard the shout and looked around, only to find the strange extra shadow.

The three of them scrambled to drop what they were holding and ran away.When he got to the door, Xiao San yelled, "Hurry up, both of you, get on the boss."

A small worker also asked stupidly: "Then these materials will not be changed?"

Xiaosan was startled and angry, "I've encountered such a wicked thing, and I still want to change the material, you have a life to talk about!"

The three of them carried Lao Li and ran all the way, until they came out of the street and saw passers-by on the road, they stopped and panted for a long time like a bellows.

The door of that store was wide open, and under the light, the shadow on the wall seemed like a ghost, flying around on the wall without being restrained by the light.

In front of Hongda Hotel, a car parked there steadily.Several people in suits and leather shoes got out of the car with red faces and walked up the steps in front of the hotel.

One of them glanced over to where the fire pit was located just outside the hotel kitchen wall.An old man was lying there with his pillow on something.There are many cinder-filled pits outside the wall of this kind of kitchen with a fire pit. The outermost position is the warmest place for some beggars to spend the night outside in autumn and winter.

"What is that old guy doing with his face covered?" The man made a mocking voice, "Could it be that she is a beautiful woman, afraid of being seen by someone, hahaha..."

Several other people looked over there, and one of them responded, "Yeah, that hand is black and thin, typical of an old stick, why are you pretending to be mysterious, hey, look - what is that on his pillow?" ? Black cloth pocket? Why does it look like there is a person in it?"

"Isn't it killing people to silence people?" A fat man in the company curled his lips and said, "People who are starving to death themselves still have this ability and thought?"

The words fell silent, and suddenly the pocket on the pillow under the old man's head shook violently, and it really looked like someone was struggling.

The old man who seemed to be asleep suddenly regained his energy, stretched out his black hand to shine on the cloth bag, and the old man who suddenly showed his face startled a few guys who laughed at him.

The old man was too thin, and his entire face was a skeleton covered with a layer of human skin.The position of the eyes is a big hole that is deeply sunken. In the dark hole, a pair of pupils can be vaguely seen, which are actually flickering faintly green. He seems to have heard the discussion of the few people just now, and he even picked up his pockets. Laughing at these people, the voice was as sharp as the sound of rubbing metal, it was so noisy that it made one's scalp tingle.

The fat man was dumbfounded, and the rest of them felt like they were being watched by wild beasts.The old man looked quite young, but his legs and feet seemed quite agile. When he turned around, he disappeared into the dark alley next to the Hongda Hotel in less than a minute.

In a moment, in the alley, a group of blurred silhouettes jumped up to the top of the houses on the street.It looked like one person was carrying another person on their backs, but there was no sign of slowness in their movements.Rather than being a person, it is better to say that it is like a big bird. After a few jumps, it has disappeared into the vast night.

When he reappeared, there was already a tall "companion" beside the old man, but this companion was obviously not an ordinary person. Although he had a human body, he was wearing the same armor as on the stage, about two meters high. Fortunately, there are no passers-by around here, otherwise, if you see a feathered bird head growing on this person's body, you must think it is a monster somewhere.

"Are you sure you're here?" the old man asked, and the bird-headed man nodded, looking very much like a good baby.The old man nodded, opened the pocket in his hand, and made a movement, signaling the bird man to get into the pocket quickly.Although the bird man was a little reluctant, but he couldn't twist his thighs with his arms, so he had to bow obediently and entered the black "cage" again.

"What good things can there be in this ghost place?" The old man asked to himself, then smiled, instead of guessing, why don't you just go in and have a look to find out. I have this fierce guy guarding me, and it's hard to hurt ordinary things my own.

Thinking of this, the old man strode inside.The shadow that was floating back and forth on the wall seemed to feel something, and actually made a movement of looking up, and it was taken aback at the same time as the old man.The birdman in the bag seemed to feel something, like a hungry dog ​​smelling the smell of bones, he became restless in the bag, sprinting left and right, looking extraordinarily agitated.The shadow waited for it to move, as if seeing the nemesis, it gradually began to fade and turn white on the wall, and disappeared on the wall in less than a minute.

"It turned out to be this thing!" The old man said in amazement, his eyes rolled slightly to the right, as if he was thinking about something.

On the originally deserted street outside the shop, two or three people came out from the dark place.It seems that these people are all 1.8 meters tall and [-] meters tall. The common feature is their beards. Although they are all wearing jackets, the smell of mutton on their bodies cannot be concealed.Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that these people are not locals, and their appearance and physique are quite similar to the nomads in the north.

The leader was a man in his 40s. There was a shriveled hole in his left eye, and he couldn't see the black and white eyeball.He looked into the store, and then asked in a hoarse voice: "Are you sure the things they entrusted us to take are in this store?"

Behind him, a slightly shorter man, who seemed to be a think tank, laughed dryly, "Yes, it's absolutely right here. According to the historical researcher we bought, this place used to be a mass grave, but we don't know What are you looking for, and why is it in this kind of mass grave."

"Experts, damn experts, they are all good at castrating history!" One Eye said disdainfully, "What information can we judge?"

"Spirit witch, a spirit witch from Inner Mongolia introduced by our spirit witch, he is a blood-sucking guy, and he asked us for a reward of nearly [-] yuan." The little man's face suddenly became painful when he said this, as if those rewards came from him. Severed flesh, "But our spirit witch said that this blood-sucking guy is good at judging this kind of thing, even better than him."

"One hundred thousand, a small number." Cyclops waved his hand and said, "When we get the things back, we'll drop by and visit there. I believe he is still very willing to become friends with us and return our reward." As he spoke, he stretched out his tongue and licked his lower lip, bloodthirsty desire flashed in his eyes.

The little man stretched out his hand and wiped his neck, and the three of them laughed.The sound startled the old man in the house. He turned his head and saw three people staring at him like wild animals.

"This old man is mine." One-eyed said with a chuckle, and the little man and the other man nodded.They looked at the old man as if they were looking at a prey that could not escape.

The three of them grinned grinningly and stepped into the door. Cyclops waved his hand, and the two men closed the door that was originally open. They were not afraid of the old man escaping. Anyway, he would die sooner or later. It got into trouble, and here, they don't want anything unplanned to happen.

The old man seemed to be frightened, and kept backing away. The black cloth bag in his hand had been slightly loosened, and there was a sneer in his heart.

Perhaps because of over-excitement, the person following the one-eyed and the little man stumbled over the material under his feet. He grabbed the little man's shoulders and barely stopped.In a flash, the room seemed to be changed by his fall. Countless shadows of different sizes appeared faintly on the four walls, and then projected onto the ground in the room, becoming three-dimensional.

In front of the old man, the faces of the three murderers could no longer be seen, replaced by Weng Zhong, a row of 24 stones. In the past, there was a vast expanse of whiteness, and nothing could be seen.

"Tomb Shadow Guard!"

The man who had just stood still yelled loudly, the one-eyed and the little man glanced at him, and the little man's eyes flashed fiercely.

"How do you know about this thing?" the little man asked viciously.

"My father went to China to do business before, and he met a friend who was in this business, and he heard this saying." The man hurriedly waved his hands to argue.

"It's not a pity to kill a newcomer who just entered the industry." The little man quietly approached One Eye's ear and whispered in a low voice.

One-eyed nodded in agreement, and said in a low voice: "Not now, if we want to kill it, we have to wait until we get the thing. Now neither of us knows this thing, and only he can take us out of the house."

The voice fell, and the newcomer grabbed the two of them by the arms, and ran out desperately. He didn't know where the strength came from, and ran out of the house panting. Look at him and wait for an explanation.

The newcomer smiled wryly and said: "Bosses, look, there is a new shadow on the wall moving to the ground. When we get to the ground, we try to run, but we can't!"

As he said, he pointed inward with his hand, and the two of them looked around, the small room completely changed its appearance, the tall and majestic palace in the room, the dignified Weng Zhong and the guards could clearly see it, although they knew the size of the room was not large Tens of square meters, but now no one can't believe that the scene they saw is as big as thousands of houses.

Cyclops gasped and looked at the little man, and then at the newcomer. Judging from this, it is not easy to get that thing.

"Is there any way to crack it?" Cyclops asked.

The newcomer shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Anyway, we are not in danger now, all we have to do is wait."
