Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 340

Tofu looked shocked, and said: "What he said is the same as the heavenly book. You can understand the unity of heaven and earth, and the coexistence of all things? Anyway, I am also a university graduate, okay! I read more books than you, why don't I understand?" .”

I pointed to a pile of body painting books not far away, and said, "Go and ask them."

In fact, Lu Su's words are not difficult to understand. He believes that shamanism is the most primitive religion of mankind. Although it has been impacted sporadically in the torrent of time, its traces can still be found in many places, except for the Nuo dance. And so on, for example, the secret arts such as exorcising corpses in Xiangxi actually evolved from this, so in this regard, shamanism can be labeled as authoritative.

But now, Lu Su is trying to use the power of the shaman to achieve his own goals.

I stared at Lu Su, sneered in my heart, and said, "You really only got a 'friend' to save you?" What kind of friend is worth his trouble?Lu Su seemed to see my suspicion, pointed at Tofu, and said, "If he died, and you knew a way to save him, would you do it?"

I didn't answer.

Lu Su then smiled slightly and said, "Everyone has someone who is extremely important to him, so why should I be suspicious of me doing this?"

I sneered and said, "Okay, then I'll ask you a second question. Were Nanjing and Wei swallowed by Jiaolong, or killed by you?"

Lu Su still had a gentle smile on his face, and said softly: "I killed it." I had already expected these three words, but for Tofu, it was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky. With such a brain and pure character, he probably couldn't believe that this gentle and refined man in front of him could tell the fact that he killed someone so casually.

I saw fear in Tofu's eyes, followed by disgust and anger, and he said, "Why did you kill them!"

Lu Su stared at him, his smile finally subsided, he sighed, and said, "If everyone was like you, the world would be much simpler. Why should I kill them? Can't you figure it out?"

Tofu took a deep breath and said, "Because they belong to Mr. Zhao, they blocked your way."

Lu Su smiled again, without answering or denying, raised his hand and poured a cup of tea for Tofu, and said softly: "The two people who are already dead, there is no need to be angry about this, this tea is very fragrant, drink a cup to breathe slowly .”

Tofu said angrily: "You...you bastard, even if Wei Nanjing blocks your way, it's not a crime to die for!"

Lu Su said: "His death is absolutely not wronged. The fights he fell and the people who were resolved in the fights are enough to be shot. You can call me whatever you want, but I didn't lie to you."

Seeing Tofu looking like he wanted to fight him, I couldn't keep silent, so I interrupted the two of them and said to Tofu, "You go out first, I'll talk to him." Tofu's idol was shattered, and he went out angrily For a while, only Lu Su and I were left in the whole shop. He stared at the direction where the tofu left, showing thoughtful eyes.I was very sensitive to such gazes, and said coldly: "Lu Su, I can't see through you. But I warn you, how you treat others has nothing to do with me, but don't try to attack the people around me."

Lu Su withdrew his gaze, smiled slightly, and said, "I'm just wondering how long a person with his character can live in this circle."

My heart skipped a beat, and I jumped up. I knew what Lu Su meant. Tofu is not suitable for this circle, no matter in terms of skill, character or thought. To borrow a sentence from my grandfather's notebook: This is a group of people who are working in the underground world for profit. People who fight each other in the village, if they don't get blood from others, they have to get their own blood.Of course, I can also understand that Lu Su is threatening me. If he wants to attack Tofu, it will be too easy, whether it is inside or outside the fight, it is the same.

Lu Su met my gaze and said slowly, "Don't get me wrong, I won't attack people around you, I think we should be friends."

I smiled and said lightly: "We are friends? You also said this to Wei Nanjing."

Lu Su glanced at me, changed the subject, and said, "What's the third question?"

"Should you give me an explanation about the Yashan Palace?" I know that Lu Su has a wide network of people. He can find here at this time, so he must be very concerned about the cooperation between Zhuanrui and me. There must be a bottom line, but I didn't expect that he knew far more than I thought. After I finished speaking, his first sentence was: "This is the purpose of my coming to you. You should want to know who Who is Master Bai? And that map, right?"

I felt my scalp go numb for a moment, no matter if I was facing the powerful and powerful Second Master Zhao, the ruthless Zhuan Rui, or the cold-blooded mute, I didn't feel this way.

This is a feeling of being locked in. I didn't expect that Lu Su would mention Master Bai and the map, which means that he knows our last action like the back of his hand, even what Grandpa mentioned in his last sentence.

Who leaked the secret?
A group of people, Zhuan Rui, Zhong Gong, me, Tofu, Gu Wenmin, no matter which one, it is impossible to be a leaker. Where did he know about it?The only explanation is that his net is denser than I imagined.

I felt my throat was a little dry, I forced myself to calm down, and after a while, I asked: "Yes. Who organized that operation back then. What did you experience in the main tomb...the cause, the process, the result, No one should know better than you, but I'm curious about one thing."

Lu Su seemed to be able to read people's hearts. He smiled slightly and said, "You are curious, whether the oracle that the Taoist priest has said has really come true."

I have never admired anyone, but in front of Lu Su, I have to admire in my heart. This kind of feeling is very complicated and hard to express.Before I could speak, Lu Su continued, "There are three people who survived, and I'm just the one who got out safely."

I said, "So... Master Bai got the so-called blessing? Hey, he took that lamp?"

There was an inscrutable smile on Lu Su's face, and he said, "You are wrong, it is your grandfather who is blessed."

I felt a little confused, thinking how could it be my grandfather?Didn't he become a servant guarding the tomb?Without giving me a chance to speak, Lu Su talked about the past.

The organizer of that operation was Lord Bai, and the target of the operation was very clear. It was the legendary seven lamps. Lu Su was the helper invited by Lord Bai. As for why Lord Bai invited him who was only sixteen or seventeen years old at the time , Lu Su did not mention it, probably related to his identity, Lu Su has never mentioned his origin.

There is nothing to describe the process in the middle of that operation. First, Jie An made a move, but Jie An was not their opponent, and Yin Yang Fox couldn't do anything to this group of people, so Jie An fled without posing any threat.

The real threat comes from the tomb.Different from our experience, Lu Su and others were the first group of patrons, and countless crises were waiting for them. After a difficult journey, when they arrived at the tomb outside the main tomb, which was the tomb with piles of corpses at that time, everyone met Biggest crisis.

Everyone was able to make it this far, seeing that victory was just ahead, but there was a sudden change in the team. Three of them suddenly went berserk and attacked the people around them. Of course, these three didn't cause too much trouble. It was cleaned up.

But everyone couldn't find the reason for their madness. They were all fine before, but why did they become so desperate when they entered the tomb?At this time, Master Bai discovered the mystery. All of this is related to the faces embossed on the walls of Dou Yuanyi's tomb.

The earth ghosts worship people's faces, and they can even hypnotize people's subconscious through the subtle changes in their faces. The reason why the tomb is empty and empty is to allow people who enter the tomb to pay attention to it at a glance. to the faces on the burial chamber.

I remember that I had seen those faces at the time, but I didn't pay attention to them at the time. Only now that Lu Su mentioned this, I realized that it turned out that my grandpa and I went crazy one after another, not because of the pile of corpses, but because of those The expression on the face is actually a kind of hypnosis, that's why I suddenly saw the dead body, and I beat the tofu into panda eyes.

At this point, the surviving people are exactly as Zha Taoist guessed, they are Lord Bai, Lu Su, Chen Siyuan, Zhuan Donglai, and Zhuan Donglai's subordinate.The five ended up in the main burial chamber.

What happened in the main tomb was similar to ours, but the only difference was that the few of us treated those lamps as scrap iron, but that was not the case with my grandfather at that time.

We treat it as scrap iron because we don't really understand it, and there are people who understand it in that team.This person is Bai Ye, the organizer of that operation.

For this reason, no one treats them as scrap metal.

If you want to know how to use these seven lamps, you need to understand the origin of these seven lamps.We previously speculated that the seven lamps were likely to belong to Han people from outside or other ethnic minorities, and they were only inadvertently obtained by the local ghost king.

The Earth Ghost King turned on the last lamp, which is said to be able to turn people into gods and immortals. Then, he really became a 'god', and became the immortal immortal in Chinese myths and legends.

This shows that the power of the magic lamp exists. Of course, it may not be as good as we imagined.

Without the last lamp, there are still six lamps inside, and what Bai Ye is looking for is the dead lamp, that is, the lamp that can make people live forever.It stands to reason that such a good thing must be taken away, but in fact, each person can only use one, because using the power of the magic lamp requires a price.
