Yin Yang Tomb Raider

Chapter 7

The leader slapped my face and said, "You think we'll believe you after just a few words? Followed a group of people and went the wrong way? Except you, we didn't see anyone else!"

Impossible, the shop owner said that a group of people drove off-road vehicles into the desert. Just now, we saw the bones with our own eyes. For some reason, an inexplicable sense of gloom came over me, making me forget the murderous intentions in front of me. Someone said: "Don't talk nonsense with them, throw them to the black pool."

black pool?What was that? I suddenly found that Meng Luo hadn't spoken for a long time. His eyes were closed, his face was pale, and his body was motionless. Could this kid just hang up like this?When he was picked up from the ground, he somehow moved and opened his eyes with difficulty...

The Black Pool lives up to its name. It is a dark pool. After we were thrown into it, the temperature in the pool was even higher than before, and there was a strong smell. I don’t know what was applied to this black layer. The only thing I’m sure of It absorbs heat, and the meat can be cooked by throwing it on it. The group of people threw us here with a look of watching the excitement: "Enjoy it."

The gangsters laughed and walked away. I was like a fish jumping out of the water onto the land. I struggled with all my might. The scorching heat pierced my skin through my clothes. The pain made me cry: "Mengluo, wake up!" Awake."

We must get out of here in the shortest possible time, otherwise we will become human jerky, Meng Luo opened his eyes, and I ran behind him, biting the rope with my mouth, ignoring the pain in my mouth, trying my best, The desire to survive caused me to explode into a small universe. Meng Luo still cooperated to get his body closer to me and adjusted the angle. The knot is dead, and it is easy to bite off. Time passed little by little, and the sweat began to be like soybean grains. I fell down, and then there was no tears to shed. I don’t know what the rope was made of. My teeth were about to fall out, and it wasn’t loose. I finally gave up, and fell down slumped, with a hoarse voice: “Grandpa, My grandson and grandson died before leaving the teacher, and we are going to follow in your footsteps on Huangquan Road."

Meng Luo shook his head: "Before I set off, I did a fortune-telling. It's a near-death hexagram, with the help of noble people."

"Your sister, apart from the sand and the sun, the only people left here are those gangsters." I wanted to save my saliva, but at the critical moment of life and death, I couldn't calm down.

Munro gasped, "Trust me."

With my hands and feet bound, what else can I do? I looked at Meng Luo's head and said coldly, "Are there any spiders in the desert?"

"What?" Munro didn't understand for a moment: "What spider?"

The spider squatted on Mengluo's head, baring its teeth and claws excitedly. A shadow moved over, looked up, and saw the impossible person—Tao Ran!
She had a towel wrapped around her neck, and she wore a hat with the brim pressed low. She looked at us with a smile: "Long time no see."

"It's just in time, help us untie it." I urged, seeing that she hadn't moved for a long time, I couldn't help saying, "Hey, you're not going to die, are you?"

Tao Ran sat down, holding a kettle in his hand: "Are you thirsty?"

What kind of medicine is sold in this woman's gourd?Monro leaned forward in a useless manner: "I'm thirsty."

Tao Ran really fed it, and Meng Luo took a sip before spitting it out: "What kind of water is this? It tastes weird."

"Salt water." Tao Ran said: "Physical saline, you two are already dehydrated, if you don't supplement this, you will die, drink it or not, it's up to you."

Tao Ran made a gesture to take the kettle away, but he didn't know where the strength came from, and he fell over all of a sudden: "Give it to me."

After drinking enough water, I looked at Tao Ran angrily: "Don't you help us untie it?"

"The so-called tit for tat, how did you react when I asked you?" This woman really holds a grudge, why don't you say that only women and villains are difficult to raise? "Now it's not just grinding you, well, I'm happy."

Only then did Tao Ran untie the rope for us. Mengluo's physique was as weak as his body shape. When he stood up, he was already weak and swayed from side to side. Tao Ran said: "We must leave here immediately. Hurry up. "

"Our camels were taken away by those people, and they can run on two legs..." I closed my mouth, and behind Tao Ran, three camels were quietly eating Achnatherum splendens: "Fuck, how did you do that?" here?"

"I set a fire in their camp. The weather is dry and it burns quickly." Tao Ran said proudly, "Let's go, what are you waiting for?"

Sure enough, not long after walking forward, I heard a noise, the air was still filled with black smoke, rushing towards the clouds, the air was deformed by the heat, everything in front of me was shaking, and I turned my head. Come on, I gave Tao Ran a thumbs up: "Smart! Women don't give way to men!"

"Stop talking nonsense." Tao Ran got on the camel and smiled triumphantly: "Don't bully women in the future."

"How dare I." Looking back, Meng Luo was trying to climb up, and I went over to help: "You guys usually need to exercise more, your body is too weak."

When the thick smoke behind us was thrown farther and farther away, we finally slowed down, and now it was my turn to ask: "Teacher Tao, how did you find us?"

"Feeling." Tao Ran pointed to the spider on his shoulder and said, "Animals have instinctive reactions, and humans have them too. Seeing how frightened you are when you enter the desert for the first time, I want to come in anyway."

"The desert is so big, but it's not easy to find us."

I was very meaningful, and Tao Ran was not to be outdone: "Why, do you think I'm meddling in saving you? I'm only interested in the history of Heishui City, and saving people depends on your mood. Did you suffer any trauma when you were young? Now I don’t have a sense of trust in people, and since that’s the case, what happens to you in the future is none of my business.”

I coughed lightly, Munro looked at me thoughtfully, and I choked, "What are you looking at?"

As soon as the voice fell, his stomach growled, and Munro asked, "Where are we going now?"

"It is said to be the site of the ruins of Heishui City." Tao Ran said: "Qingcheng University once did research there, but unfortunately, there was not enough funds to stop the project. This happened six years ago. Not many people know about it. If it is said that I have some confidential information in my hands, are you willing to cooperate with me?"

"Cooperation?" I said: "You have the upper hand now, so you can cheap us?"

"It's not so simple." Tao Ran looked back at me: "That place is very evil, I can't do it alone, what is your purpose, isn't it a treasure, although the original intention is different, but the destination is the same , how about it, think about it."

I didn't hear Tao Ran's words, and my eyes fell to the front. There, several figures were floating in the air, showing a translucent state. I coughed lightly. I haven't seen such a thing for a long time. This is the first time I saw At that time, it was my mother, and the white mist diffused from her body, and gradually turned into a human form... That is the form of the soul, the godfather said, people have three souls and seven souls, once the body dies, the three souls and seven souls leave body, go where it should go, and not stay in the yang world.

Munro quietly came to me and said in a low voice, "Did you see it?"

"Ah, there are four in total, three men, one woman, and one foreigner." I coughed lightly: "The expedition team that the shop owner mentioned, what's going on?"

"Your horoscope is light, and it is easy to see unclean things. If you don't see corpses, you can only see souls. These people are newly dead and belong to new souls." Meng Luo said, and suddenly took out a yellow talisman in his hand, which had not been used before. Saw it on TV too.

"What are you doing?" I looked at Tao Ran in front of me, she turned a deaf ear to the movement behind her, and only cared about her journey.

"Send them a ride." After Meng Luo finished speaking, the yellow talisman in his hand lit up. Meng Luo, who had been listless just now, lifted his spirits, and the yellow talisman in his hand flew out, covering the blurred shadows in it. He was still chanting words: "Shenzhen can heal itself, dusty and drowning can be helped. Netherworld will depend on it. You can ascend to the capital of immortals. Urgent as a law!"

Seeing the yellow talisman wrapped in a few souls disappearing into the desert, Meng Luo breathed a sigh of relief: "Their luck is good, fortunately it's not noon, otherwise the souls would have disappeared."

"Where did they go now?" I asked curiously. I have seen these vague things since I was a child, but now I don't think there is anything. Instead, I feel a faint sense of excitement.

"Where they should go, Lin Tianyi, do you believe that people have past lives?" Meng Luo asked me seriously.

"There should be, but I still don't believe it." I said seriously, "We'll talk about it after I die."

"What are you guys talking about?" Tao Ran finally stopped and turned to ask us. Her slender legs are so dazzling in the sun. I swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "It's nothing, the figure is really good, these legs, tsk tsk."

Tao Ran was stunned for a moment, then said angrily, "Go to death."

"Teacher Tao, do you really believe in the existence of the treasure of Heishui City?" Our goal is not the treasure of Heishui City, but the treasure of Xiang Yu related to the broken jade, but why the same scene as the broken jade pattern appears in the wind of the paper, It's worth looking into. I talked to Tao Ran one after another, trying to find out a thing or two from her mouth.

"I only believe that seeing is believing." Tao Ran said nonchalantly: "That's what learning is all about. I believe that the dust in history is more interesting than official history, and I am willing to find out. This is not your ordinary people can understand."

"Yes, we really don't understand this kind of morality." I exchanged glances with Meng Luo: "Especially for a person like me who grew up like a weed, I don't belong to the same world as Teacher Tao."

Tao Ran looked at me in amazement, and I shrugged: "You must not be interested in my history."

I was speechless, at this moment, Tao Ran and the camel flew out suddenly, I watched Tao Ran land on the sand, making a muffled sound, the camel turned around and stopped in place, Mengluo and I Quickly stopped the camel and jumped down at the same time. As soon as it touched the sand, the sand under our feet rose up and swept directly into our eyes. Someone!
