Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 107 Memories
After Lu Su finished all this, he pulled out the steel knife, took out a piece of black cloth from his trouser pocket, and wiped it along the blade, the sticky meat on it was instantly cleaned off, and the precious knife became shiny again.There is no scabbard for this knife. There is a leather buckle on his leg. When not in use, he puts the knife in the leather buckle. If there is any urgent need, he can pull it out easily.

After putting away the knife, Lu Su lifted Ren Ling's body up and threw it under the statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, then clapped his hands and sat back by the fire.The woman surnamed Ren was also frightened now. Seeing her little niece turn into such a monster with her own eyes was a big blow. She probably saw that Tofu was easy to talk about, so she told Tofu to help untie the rope.

Tofu said: "You bitch is full of evil intentions, untie the rope, what do you want?"

The woman had thin wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, she looked a little nervous, she just looked at the tofu and said she was going to the toilet.

Tofu was in a dilemma, and it was impossible for him to help a woman take off her pants and wipe her buttocks, so she hesitated, and the woman said: "I have nothing on me now, and all the people under my hands are dead. In terms of skills, I can't compare with you." A group of people, why are you afraid of me?" I held my wound, thinking that if she was a lesbian, and she was really pulled in her trousers, it would appear that we old men were too sympathetic, so I ordered the tofu Nodding, the tofu was untied.

The woman moved her joints a few times, asked us for some toilet paper, and turned to a dark place behind the rocks.We have explored that place before, and there is no other entrance and exit, and we are not afraid of what she will mess with.

At this moment, everyone sat by the fire, momentarily stunned and full of doubts.I lay on the ground, carefully recalling the experiences along the way, and sorted out the ins and outs of the whole thing.

First of all, I came with tofu for two things.One is to investigate the connection between Princess Gegeer's tomb and the curse, and the other is to join forces with Wei Nanjing and others to obtain the Eight Carp Doujiao Zhenhai Stone for old man Zhao, and touch two artifacts to make money.Who would have thought that we had come all the way, but met the Ren family members on a narrow road, and a ghost appeared on the way, which caused us to be separated from Wei Nanjing and others. The matter of devouring the two of Rodren.

At the beginning, it was said that Princess Gegeer, who had a hole in her head and learned witchcraft from a shaman, died young when she was close to the Central Plains.Fearing her sorcery, the emperor at that time sent people to build a mausoleum here, but accidentally dug out the dragon's veins.In order to prevent the evil dragons from making troubles, a corpse raising bureau was set up.Princess Gegeer was buried here. In order to prevent her evil spirits from causing trouble, she also collected gold essence and cast a statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

In this way, it stands to reason that the golden coffin of the princess should be near here, but why is there an empty coffin on Ksitigarbha's leg?
The so-called virtual coffin is also a common anti-theft method, that is, to forge a main tomb and main coffin in the underground palace. In fact, the coffin is filled with poison gas and organs. Once the tomb robbers open the coffin, they will be taken away by the virtual coffin. Lost life, but the real main coffin was intact.

Not to mention how this virtual coffin harmed Gu Wenmin and the two of them, if it is really a virtual coffin, where is the real golden princess coffin?How can we get the legendary artifact that Dayu used to control the water?This princess tomb was built according to the trend of innate karst caves, and its scale is much larger than what we expected before. What kind of supernatural powers did she have during her lifetime, and she was so feared after her death?

What is the connection between her evilness and Concubine Wan Yao, who is also called a demon?
Along the way, I didn't see any clues about Ghost Shezhi's face. Could it be that I was tricked by old man Zhao and used him as a gun?
I had a nightmare before, dreaming that I opened the princess's golden coffin, but the princess's face was exactly the same as Gu Wenmin's.At that time, I only thought that I was supercilious, but now it has become a real thing. For some reason, Gu Wenmin actually lay in the golden coffin.Could it be that the power of the curse is at work again?Will it endanger the people around me?

These thoughts flashed and rolled in my mind, disturbing people's peace. When I was depressed, I heard Lu Su say: "Brother Chen is injured, so we don't have to take turns guarding. The three of us take turns to rest. It seems that there will be more to come." It won’t work if I don’t have enough physical strength.” My shoulder was injured before and lost blood, and now I relaxed, my eyelids were fighting, and I didn’t listen to what the three of them said, I looked around Gu Wenmin, who was sleeping not far away, put aside those troubles and fell into a deep sleep.

There was no accident in this sleep, and no one came to disturb me. The temperature of the bonfire next to me was moderate, which made people relax and sleep very comfortably.

When I woke up naturally, the rest of the people woke up one after another. The last shift was Lu Su. He was in good spirits. Except for him, Feng Guishou and Tofu, Gu Wenmin and I slept for a full ten hours , as if most of the night had passed.I moved my body, and sure enough, I felt exhausted, my brain became very clear, and I was in a good state of mind.

Although Tofu guarded half the game and didn't sleep for that long, his physical exertion was not as great as mine, and he has recovered now, only Gu Wenmin is still sleeping.I fed her some water and pinched Renzhong again, and then she slowly opened her eyes, and her mental condition was not that bad anymore.On the other side, the woman from the Ren family also loosened her ties. She was a little far away from us, but she didn't have anything on her body, and she couldn't escape, so there was no need to worry too much.

As soon as Gu Wenmin woke up, everyone's eyes focused on her at the same time, and Tofu asked directly: "Is Miss Gu better? Tell me quickly, how did you turn into a living person and run into a sealed coffin?" ?”

"The coffin..." Gu Wenmin guessed that his sanity had not yet recovered, so he spoke very slowly, biting each word, as if he was recalling something, and asked in a hoarse voice after a while; "What coffin?" He didn't know anything about being put into a coffin.If it is said that other women are confused, I still believe it, but Gu Wenmin is not a confused person, how could she not know what happened to her?

I stared into her eyes for a while, her eyes were confused and frank, she didn't seem to be lying, so I told her the reason and asked her about the matter on the jade bridge, why did she suddenly call out Ren Ling? name.

As soon as Ren Ling was mentioned, Gu Wenmin seemed to have opened up some bad memories, her face changed instantly, and her speech speed also became rapid: "I remembered, she was the one who pulled me down."

Tofu said: "You mean, Ren Ling pulled you down? Could it be that she was hiding under the jade bridge?" Even so, we all know that there is no place to hide under the jade bridge.

I just listened to Gu Wenmin narrate what happened at that time, in fact it was very short, not only we were confused, but even she herself didn't know what was going on.

At that time, she was the last one to cross the bridge. The jade bridge was narrow, so she needed to be careful when walking, and she would fall into the abyss if she was not careful.Gu Wenmin walked very cautiously, the searchlight above her head was always on, illuminating her way forward.The jade bridge under my feet is so thin that the searchlights can almost penetrate through it.Just as she fixed her eyes on the jade bridge, moved her steps, and was about to reach the top, suddenly, she passed through the jade bridge and found something sticking to the bottom of the jade bridge.

The thing was vague, like a human hand.

Gu Wenmin was startled, her body swayed, and she almost fell down, but fortunately she reacted quickly, squatted down, and hugged Yuqiao with both hands, so she didn't slip.But at this time, her face was very close to Yuqiao, and under the direct light of the headlight, the shadow of the human hand on the back of Yuqiao was also clearer, but what was under the hand was not clear at all.

She was startled, thinking how could there be a human hand under this jade bridge?Driven by curiosity and vigilance, she was about to reach out behind the jade bridge to fish out the thing to have a look, but just as she stretched out her hand, she was grabbed by a cold hand behind the jade bridge.Before Gu Wenmin realized what was going on, another face appeared behind the jade bridge, and it was Ren Ling's face.

How could Ren Ling's face be under the jade bridge?

Below the jade bridge is the abyss. Could it be that she is standing in the abyss out of thin air?
She couldn't help calling out Ren Ling's name, and the cold hand that grabbed her suddenly felt a strong force, pulling her down.

Then there was a fall, and she realized that she seemed to have fallen into a puddle of water, and then fainted.This dizziness didn't last long, and when he woke up, he found himself trapped in a closed space with a foul smell and a heavy object on his body.

After groping, she realized that it was Ren Ling who was pressing on her body, and she didn't realize what the enclosed space around her was. She just kept struggling inside, trying to find an exit to get out.Later, the oxygen became thinner and thinner, and he was smoked by the foul-smelling gas, so he passed out again until he was rescued by us.

Here is the whole process as she describes it.

After the few of us listened to it, it felt like we were listening to a heavenly scripture.

First of all, it is impossible for Ren Ling to stand in the abyss without support; secondly, how did Gu Wenmin get into the coffin when he fell into the abyss?
It's all still a mystery.

Just when everyone was puzzled, there was a gurgling sound from Tofu's stomach, which attracted the attention of the others.

Tofu laughed, touched his stomach and said, "The roundworm in my stomach is hungry, and it is clamoring for food." It has been more than ten hours since the last time we ate, and we only ate jerky at that time After two mouthfuls, it was interrupted by Ren Ling who crawled out suddenly. At this moment, Tofu's stomach growled, and almost everyone's stomach began to growl, as if it was contagious. Everyone was hungry, but they couldn't find anything to eat. .

Hearing this, Lu Su chuckled, seemingly helpless, and said to Tofu, "It seems that we need to find something to eat first." After a pause, Lu Su shifted his gaze to the abyss not far away, his dark gaze slightly Flashing, seems to have some plans.
