interstellar tomb raider

Chapter 13
As expected, the Pyramid of Light was not built. The top of the tower lit up first, and then the four corners of the bottom also began to glow. In a blink of an eye, it turned into a large ball of light and floated up. After looking for the direction, the pyramid turned into a stream of light and broke through.

It took Yi Shuihan about eight hours to get to the center of the earth, but it only took him a quarter of an hour to get out of the center of the earth.

Finally returned to the surface, Yi Shuihan was in a good mood, but the feeling of emptiness in his heart after Mr. Mu left, he hadn't gotten used to it for a while, after all, the two of them had stayed together for five full months.

Outside the pyramid, there was a strong wind and sandstorms, and the sandstorms that covered the sky and the sun were nothing more than ordinary weather.

Yi Shuihan didn't want to drive the pyramid back to the underground city, that would be too ostentatious, and it didn't suit his personality at all. Yi Shuihan was used to being poor, and he knew how to hide his wealth, so he still planned to drive the drilling locomotive back.

During those days underground, Yi Shuihan, based on the principle of waste utilization, asked the mechanical beetles on the Guangshu Pyramid to restore the drilling locomotive. Those beetles were so powerful that they actually strengthened the drilling locomotive from the inside out. The metal layer was suddenly added to the place, and the place that should be lightened was lightened. Tens of thousands of beetles worked together, and the result was that the drilling old car became a new car. Even Yi Shuihan couldn't recognize that it was his old car, but Yi Shuihan Noticed that the energy consumed by the mechanical beetles is enough to buy a new car and still have leftovers. Yi Shuihan will never do this kind of uneconomical behavior in the future. Fortunately, he got a lot of energy crystals, which is enough to waste a few times like this in the pyramid. hundred-year.

Putting the pyramid in the necklace, Yi Shuihan drove the drilling locomotive towards the underground city.

Looking at the sky dome in front of the dungeon, Yi Shuihan felt a little cordial, and somewhat affectionate with his mother who had lived in this city for 20 years.

There are hundreds of entrances in the dungeon, and the common point of each entrance is that there will be a large parking lot on both sides, and drilling locomotives are not allowed to be brought into the city.

Yi Shuihan really doesn't want to put the brand new motorcycle in the parking lot. Although there are electronic monitoring equipment, it is not safe. He found a dead corner in the parking lot. Few people park motorcycles here, because it is too quiet and it is easy to lose the car. Seeing no one around, he quickly put the brand new motorcycle into the ancient ring.

With a smug smile on the corner of his mouth, Yi Shuihan began to feel complacent. Five months later, he was quite different from before.The next step should be to exchange for credit points. My credit card is already overdrawn. These days, credit points are money. If you have money to travel around the world, you must have money in addition to the necessary tools if you want to venture out.But before I go to get money, I have to go home and tidy up.

Yi Shuihan walked on the dark street, took a breath of the turbid air, and sighed faintly. It was very normal to walk here, but once he was able to leave, he deliberately stayed here to feel the discomfort. It seems that people are really strange creatures.

The streets of the underground city are always dark as the theme, unless it is the bustling area of ​​the city center, where it is as bright as day, but Yi Shuihan's mother and son live in poverty. Although the mother looks after a luxurious villa in the city center for a wealthy businessman, the salary is still very low. Shui Han's mother squeezed out the money to buy the classic drilling locomotive.

Back home, Yi Shuihan sat on the bed and took a photo of his mother and himself for a long time, until the Gulu on his head jumped restlessly, and Yi Shuihan came back from his thoughts.

Changed into the best clothes he had before, and looked at himself in the mirror, Yi Shuihan's eyes were a little indifferent at the moment, his black hair tied behind his back looked very capable, but his skin was getting fairer and fairer, with red in it , this makes Yi Shuihan worry that he has the potential to become a bad boy, but overall he looks a bit handsome, which seems to be something to be happy about.

Turning back to look at the home where he lived for many years, Yi Shuihan sighed: "Well, keep the memories of mother, everything here is worth taking away!"

After speaking, Yi Shuihan put everything in the family into the ancient ring, especially his mother's ashes, which Yi Shuihan carefully wrapped and put in.

After that, Yi Shuihan found a few oilcloth pockets, picked out some relatively inferior energy crystals from the necklace and put them in. Through the spectroscopic observation, these crystals probably have more than 700 million energy units. At most 2000 units of energy are used per year, and the black market price can be worth [-] million credits.

Energy crystals are much more valuable than diamonds and other minerals. These crystals are deposited and accumulated by cosmic energy. Their structure is very stable and safe to use. They are much stronger than nuclear energy, proton energy, and antimatter energy. They have become the mainstream energy source today.

Picking up a few packages with ease, Yi Shuihan looked at the empty home, and walked out without nostalgia.

Today's black market is relatively deserted. The recent geological movement has been very violent. Not many people have gone out to prospect and mine, so the black market has also become depressed.

The dungeon black market is completely legal, because the owner behind the scene is the city lord. There is no need to pay taxes to the government department in name only. You only need to pay tribute to the city lord. You can sell all stolen and illegal items here, and the merchants here are desperate The black-hearted ghost of money.

Yi Shuihan went straight to the old Pick's shop. Each shop was covered with heavy curtains. It was impossible to see what transactions were going on inside, and the prices were completely kept secret, but the prices of minerals and spars here were very dark. up.

"Uncle Pi Ke, I haven't patronized your place for a long time." Yi Shuihan turned over the curtain and entered a small shop.

"Oh, Xiao Yi is here, I haven't seen you for a long time, my little lucky boy finally remembered poor old Pike! See how deserted the business here is, and the market is getting worse and worse now The shops are separated by an iron fence, and behind the iron fence is a middle-aged man with a red beard. The walls around the middle-aged man are hung with a variety of goods, but at this moment, it is nothing in Yi Shuihan's eyes.

Yi Shuihan once heard that Uncle Pick was a star thief when he was young, but later his spaceship ran aground near Feng Saturn, and Pick escaped here.At that time, Pi Ke, who was covered in blood, was helped by Yi Shuihan's mother. He was just born at that time, and it is unknown how his mother rescued this enthusiastic uncle. Later, Pi Ke settled down here and married his wife. There are contacts.

After Yi Shuihan became a miner, all the things he dug were sent here, and the price given by Pick was very fair, three times higher than others' prices.

Outsiders don't know that "Black Bear" Pi Ke has a kind side, so after making sure no one will come in again, Pi Ke looked at Yi Shuihan kindly and said, "Son, uncle sees maturity from your eyes, your mother is a A very kind-hearted lady, I feel very sad when she leaves, but your mother pinned all her hopes on you, so you have to live a good life. Uncle went to your house many times, but he didn’t see you. I’m very sorry You are in a hurry, now that uncle is relieved after seeing you."

Yi Shuihan smiled apologetically, and said: "Thank you, Uncle Pi Ke, for your concern. My life is like a cockroach, and it is still very difficult to die. I will gain a lot from going out for five months this time. By the way, I will repay you for your kindness to me, Uncle Pike." If you care, you will know when you see it.”

After speaking, he passed a few oilcloth bags through the gap in the iron fence.

Pick took the sediment package and hurriedly opened it for viewing. After seeing this, he couldn't help taking a breath, and forced himself to calm down. Pick hurriedly put down the store door, and at the same time opened the iron fence door, signaling Yi Shuihan went in.

"Uncle, are you not doing business today?"

Pick nervously said in a low voice: "Silly boy, what other business are you doing with such a big business, hurry up and talk with me in the back." He picked up a few packages and walked to the back.

Behind the shop is a small room of a few square meters, with only a double bed and a writing desk in the room.

Pick twisted a few times on the desk, and then the bed suddenly stood up, and a passage appeared under the bed.

Yi Shuihan was amazed, he had been to this hut before, and it was only used as a place to discuss matters with important guests, but he didn't expect that there was another passage under the bed. "Uncle, you still have a hole in the sky, you used to think that this hut was just for you to rest your feet."
Pick said with a smile: "Silly boy, you have to keep a hand in our business, especially your uncle used to be a murderer and smuggler. Although he didn't save much money, he had many enemies. Who knows who is a powerful enemy?" Will you find this place, so you have to prepare for your own safety." After speaking, Pick urged Yi Shuihan to go down with him.
