Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 103 Impulsive
Everyone crossed the Yuqiao safely, no one expected Gu Wenmin to have an accident suddenly, and there was no sound for a while.Tofu was short of breath, and said angrily, "How could this happen! What was her name just now? Ren Ling? It must be that little bitch doing something wrong!" After finishing speaking, he pulled out the gun at his waist, wanting to rush back to Yuqiao to seek revenge on Ren Ling .

It was his impulsiveness that pulled me back from my already stiff mind. He quickly grabbed the tofu, forcibly stabilized my mind, and said, "No way. When we came just now, we didn't see any sign of Ren Ling at all. How did you meet? There must be a reason for things, so don’t be impulsive.” Tofu is a quick-tempered person, and when he is timid, he is timid, but he is definitely righteous enough. Although we have only known each other for a few days, we are partners who have gone through life and death together. Seeing the scene of her falling into the abyss, how could Tofu calm down.As soon as I pulled her away, she hurriedly said: "Don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive, don't let her die in vain!"

"It's not certain whether you're dead or not."

Tofu was taken aback, looked at me and said, "What do you mean? Isn't there a cave for dragons and snakes down here? It's so high, can she survive if she falls?"

I forced myself to calm down now, and I thought a lot about it.It is impossible for Gu Wenmin to fall off the bridge for no reason, she must have encountered some accident.When she fell off the cliff, she called Ren Ling's name, but when we came, there was no one else on the jade bridge.Could it be that what she saw was Ren Ling's ghost?

Did Ren Ling's ghost kill her?
Normally, I would not guess about these strange things, but the experience of this half month, recalling it carefully, Huiyonghe Civilian Tomb, Yinyang Liubu Village, Shenquan, and this princess tomb, everywhere It reveals danger and weirdness, but there is nothing normal about it.

I explained to Tofu: "It was said before that there is a waterfall behind the Yuqiao, but have you seen the waterfall now? There are too many discrepancies in the information passed down by word of mouth. Under this abyss, it may not be a cave of dragons and snakes, maybe there is a line Vitality." Tofu patted his forehead when he heard the words, and whispered: "That's good, that's how it's done in TV dramas. When the protagonist falls into the abyss, it's usually either blocked by a tree, or there's water underneath. There's no tree here. Guess there's groundwater below, so Miss Gu will be saved."

I was dumbfounded for a moment, couldn't help but smiled wryly, and said: "Your amazing imagination, it would be a waste not to write about it." I just said one thing, he is lucky, he has thought of everything.

Feng Guishou heard it from the side, and couldn't help but said in surprise: "Could it be that you still want to go down to save people?"

Tofu said: "Why do you look like you have seen a ghost? Our companion's life or death is unknown. Shouldn't we go search and rescue?"

Feng Gui shook his head, looked at us like a fool, then turned his head and said to me: "I don't want to talk to this kid, it doesn't make sense to talk to him." Tofu got angry when he heard that, and cursed: "Hey , You old bastard, this is a different way to call me human, isn't it?" While cursing, she rolled up her sleeves.

Feng Guishou snorted, only looked at me, and said, "Brother Chen, he is unreliable. You are not an impulsive person, so you won't follow along, right? This person has fallen, and [-]% of them fell. It's rotten... This is not a TV series, you won't die no matter how you fall. Going down to find someone now, I don't intend to waste time. If there are really dragons and snakes down there, it's not a self-inflicted trap."

I know what Feng Guishou said is right. The abyss under my feet can't be seen under the light. The depth can be imagined, but the reality is not. How can there be any miracles?Intellectually speaking, Gu Wenmin is doomed. If Tofu and I go down to search and rescue, let alone whether the conditions are allowed or not, even if we go down, what can we do?Seeing a pile of bloody mud only adds to the sadness.

But for some reason, Gu Wenmin's appearance always appeared in my mind. When I thought of her dark eyes and worried look in front of the jade bridge, I couldn't make a decision for a while.I'm not a person who likes to act emotionally. Emotions are like a fart to me and can be released at any time, but at this moment, my reason is a little out of control.

Tofu belongs to the weak-minded type, he is very emotional, Gu Wenmin suddenly fell, his reaction was completely revealed on his face, his expression was angry and sad, his eyes were red, and he rolled his sleeves as if he wanted to go down to catch people .

In the current situation, the chance of Gu Wenmin's survival is indeed very slim. After wandering in front of my reason and emotion for a while, I made up my mind and said to Tofu: "Old Feng is right, don't do such meaningless things gone."

Tofu was taken aback, his usual hippie smile became a little stiff, he looked at me and said, "Old Chen, do you know what you're talking about?"

I was slightly silent, patted Tofu on the shoulder, and said, "I know. But now is not the time to act emotionally. Be rational, and you should know that she can't be alive."

Tofu's expression turned cold. He looked like a playful and smiling person, and he would get angry if he was teased a little bit. In fact, he had a broad mind and rarely got really angry.But I can see that tofu is really popular this time.

He paused every word: "I don't want to talk to you about reason. I only know that in the corpse inn, she gave us too much food and starved herself; when your leg was injured, she gritted her teeth against the rain She helped me all the way; in times of danger, she never left us to escape alone, she was just a woman! Lao Chen, I always thought that I knew you very well, you were a rational person, but now you are too rational, a bit rational Cold-blooded!"

It was as if I had been hit by a heavy hammer in my heart. How could I not know what Tofu said?Maybe a person is too rational, and that's not a good thing.

The experience of this journey flashed in my mind, and then I looked at the abyss under my feet, imagining the scene of Gu Wenmin being trapped in the abyss with no one to rescue him if he was lucky enough to survive. Well, in a person's life, who doesn't have an impulsive moment, so he sighed: "I want to see people when I live, and I want to see corpses when I die. Let's go."

After speaking, I unscrewed a gear bag, started to arrange the ropes, and prepared to go down.

When Feng Guishou saw it, he looked at me and Doufu and sneered silently, and said calmly: "Brother Chen, since you have already made a decision, I can't stop it. Being a human being should be affectionate and righteous, and I admire that. However, I still have things to do, so I won't accompany you." He said, pointing to the stone coffin placed on Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's lap.

The stone coffin was majestic in shape, with phoenix patterns embossed on the outside. The person in the coffin must have a high status. If you guess correctly, this must be the main coffin of Princess Gegeer.We, a group of people, have gone through thousands of fortunes and hardships, isn't it for the things in the coffin?At this time, going down to look for Gu Wenmin would mean missing the opening of the coffin.However, Lu Su and Feng Guishou were originally the people that old man Zhao was looking for. Old man Zhao also said in advance that there is no need to leave anything in the tomb, except for the Eight Carp Doujiao Township Stone, as long as old man Zhao can get this piece. As for the stone, there must be no difference whether I give it to him or Lu Su gives it to him.

It's just that, this time, Tofu and I may be equivalent to digging up an empty mushroom and returning empty-handed.

But after thinking about it, money is important, but you can't lose your conscience because of money.Although Gu Wenmin has always been from a suspicious background, she has never harmed Tofu and me along the way. As Tofu said, no matter how dangerous the situation is, at least she has never left us alone to escape.For this alone, Tofu and I cannot sit idly by.

What reason, let it go to hell for now.

After Feng Guishou finished speaking, I nodded and let them take care of themselves. Then I started to arrange the buckle of the rope and estimate the amount of rope used.Taking advantage of this time, Feng Guishou had already put down his claws and began to climb up the rope.Lu Su stood and watched from below, seeing Tofu and me tidying up things, he remained silent for a while, and said, "As long as there are no accidents, the time to open the coffin will not be too long, why not wait a while, and then we will go down together when it is done. There is strength in numbers, and I want to do my part.”

Lu Su's complexion was serious, and his voice sounded full of sincerity, but prejudice, once established, is hard to change.Lu Su's performance is too perfect, which makes me feel very unreliable.But I have no grievances or enmities with him, so there is no need to tear my face.So he said haha, thanked him casually, and let it go.

If he really wants to help, he will naturally come to help when Tofu and I go down, otherwise, no matter how nice the words are, it's just an effort to save face and have a fart.

At this time, the rope in my hand had been arranged in place, and I immediately took out an iron chisel, drove it into the rocks, used it as a rope bolt, and then threw the rope into the abyss.The lonely rope looked very dangerous in the dark, the old woman surnamed Ren probably saw that the situation was over, and the life and death of the niece and daughter were unknown, so nothing happened.

I made an OK sign to Tofu, carried the equipment bag, and was about to go down, but Feng Guishou, who had already climbed to the side of the coffin, suddenly let out a sigh and said, "Brother Chen, wait a minute."

Tofu said: "Wait, wait, saving people is like putting out a fire, and wait until the children are old enough." "
