Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 342-Awakening
When Lu Su was thinking about these questions, Grandpa kept staring at him, his eyes gradually dimmed, and finally closed.Lu Su knelt down and felt for his pulse. He was already dead.

I heard this, took a deep breath, and said, "Dead? Then what did I see?" Lu Su smiled meaningfully, and said, "I didn't expect that you would see him again." Obviously, he knew everything that happened to us in the Yashan Palace, so I couldn't help but ask, "Who did you find out about?"

Lu Su asked back: "Is this also one of your problems?"

"Calculate."

Lu Su smiled and said, "I've answered so many questions of yours, shouldn't I be rewarded?"

I said: "Is this what you really want to say? What do you want in return?"

Lu Su turned his gaze to the outside of the store, smiled and said: "This return is the purpose of my coming to you this time." After a pause, he said: "I don't need to ask others, I am always by your side."

always by our side?I felt a sudden shock in my heart and said, what does this mean?Is this kid following us down?This is impossible. In that environment, if someone is following us, it is impossible not to notice it. Besides, there was Xiao Jing at that time. It is impossible for Xiao Jing not to know things that people cannot find.

Wait...Xiao Jing!
I gasped and said, "What is the relationship between Xiao Jing and you!"

Lu Su smiled slightly and said, "You are very smart, you thought of it so quickly."

I was so shocked beyond description, how could Xiao Jing get involved with Lu Su?Could it be that Xiao Jing mixed into our team, but everything was actually arranged by Lu Su?
Oh my god, this man... is not human anymore.

How did he find Xiao Jing?How did he bribe her?Did he have his eyes on us long before we went down to fight?Such a city is really terrifying.

During our conversation, more than half of the time has passed, and it was getting dark outside. Tofu came back from outside with a popsicle dangling in his mouth. He was a little surprised to see the two of us still sitting in the same place, and walked up to me and whispered: "How is he?" Still here? What did you say all afternoon?"

I shook my head and said, "It's a long story, I'll tell you later."

Tofu saw that the atmosphere was not right, and seeing what I said, he didn't stay any longer, and said, "Then I will continue to level up and fight monsters. Call me if I have something to do. If he dares to be violent...I, I will call the police for you."

Lu Su laughed and said, "Do I look like such a bad person?"

Tofu was no longer deceived by him this time, and said angrily: "You are a Yue Buqun!"

I was in a depressed mood at first, but I was instantly happy when I heard the words. I thought that the metaphor of tofu was too appropriate. It was too appropriate to compare him to Yue Buqun, a hypocrite who is proud of himself. Most importantly, Yue Buqun finally committed suicide. palace.

I felt a little relieved when I was made a fuss by Tofu. The matter was clear. Tofu and I have been looking for Lu Su, but we couldn't find him. In fact, he was already watching us in places we couldn't see. Yes, and can even insert Ren'an into our team.

This time he will come to me, just like Lu Su himself said, he needs to pay back, so why is he looking for me?
I gave Tofu a wink, signaling him not to interrupt, and then, Lu Su continued to talk about the situation at that time.

At that time, he checked his grandfather's pulse, and found that he was dead, and Master Bai had disappeared without a trace. The remaining three people had good eyesight. Unexpectedly, knowing that he couldn't stay here for long, Zhuan Donglai fixed his eyes on the ghost lamp.

Ghosts are 'sly', with it, you can have a lot of strange powers, if you add a dead lamp, it will be perfect.Zhuan Donglai stretched out his hand towards them, but the moment he stretched out his hand, Zhuan Donglai's face suddenly changed, his eyes flickered, and his lips trembled, as if he was saying something silently, the situation was the same as before. Bai Ye is almost exactly the same.

Lu Su's heart skipped a beat, and he secretly clenched the Ghost Crying Knife in his hand to prevent any accidents. At this moment, Zhuan Donglai suddenly said to Ah Hai: "Cover the inner coffin."

Ah Hai was surprised and said, "Let's not take the things anymore?"

Zhuan Donglai looked very strange, and said, "I won't take it anymore, don't touch anything here."

Ah Hai opened the coffin recently, so he was attacked by some Gu insects, so he had to collect some secretions. Lu Su did not stop the two of them. Neither Bai Ye nor Zhuan Donglai were fools. His actions must have a purpose.

While waiting, they moved grandfather's body aside, and Lu Su asked Zhuan Donglai, "What's going on? Who are you talking to?"

Zhuan Dong glanced at him, and slowly uttered two words: "Myself."

This reminds me of what my grandfather once said to me, and he once said similar unpredictable words. I even think of the other me I saw in my grandfather's eyes.

It seems that I was not the only one who encountered that situation.

So, what does this self refer to?
Lu Su also didn't understand at that time, and then Zhuan Dong talked about his own experience at that moment.

On the top of the seven lamps, each has a figure shape, which I have noticed before.And the moment Zhuan Donglai's hand touched the lamp, he suddenly discovered that the person on top of the lamp suddenly came alive.

The man's face suddenly changed from flat to convex, and the outline of the face became clear. The color of black iron gradually changed to the color of human skin. Immediately afterwards, a face exactly like Zhuan Donglai's appeared in front of him.

"What are you!" Zhuan Donglai asked.

The man stared at him, showing a strange smile: "I am you."

Zhuan Dong said, "Pretending to be a ghost."

The man said, "You need my help."

Zhuan Dong said, "What help?" He began to wonder if he was hallucinating.

The human face of the man sitting on top of the lamp said again: "I am a 'ghost', do you need power? I can satisfy you, but in exchange."

"exchange?"

The lamp said again: "I am you, you are me, my power is your power, but you need the key to open it, this is exchange." When he was eager to get something and leave, he ignored the first half of the sentence, but asked directly: "What is the content of the exchange?"

The human face on the lamp said: "Pierce your heart with your knife." When it said this, the body had the urge to draw the knife involuntarily, Zhuan Donglai remembered the content on the silk book, and remembered Afterwards, the Earth Ghost King finally understood that this was not a magic lamp, but a demon lamp, so he let go of his hand suddenly. He was afraid that if he talked to that self again, his life might really be on the line.

Afterwards, Lu Su thought over Zhuan Donglai's words over and over again.

"I am you, you are me, and my power is your power, but you need the key to open it, and that is the exchange." What does this sentence mean?It wasn't until a few years ago that Lu Su finally figured out the meaning of this sentence, and finally understood what the seven lamps represented.

And this is why he came to me.

The reason why I want to understand this matter is from four years ago.Lu Su has a friend who is engaged in the research of human genetics. Once, when drinking tea with this friend, Lu Su was reading the newspaper and suddenly discovered a piece of news.

The content of the news is that in the United States, an ignorant street boy accidentally got into a car accident. After waking up, he suddenly developed a very strong interest in music, and he could play very difficult classical music. Before this, the young man had only listened to some street rock music, and had never even touched a piano, as if he had been infused with the soul of a musical genius after a car accident.

Seeing that Lu Su was interested in this news, the friend said, "This may be the awakening of potential."

"Awakening of potential?" Lu Su signaled his friend to continue.

The friend followed up with an explanation.The awakening of potential includes memory inheritance and genetic inheritance. For example, there is a kind of rat in South Africa. Their life span is only one year. In this year, three months are used for growth and four months are used for migration. They will migrate to a pasture along a very long road, and they will do this for generations, and they will not go wrong.

When the migration arrives, it is the breeding season. The cubs mature in the grassland and then return along the original road. When these cubs return, their parents who have only one year of life have already died, that is to say, no one Tell them where their hometown is, but for generations, they can accurately travel back and forth on this long road.

This behavior is considered to be a kind of memory inheritance, that is, the memory of the ancestors will remain in the memory, and these mice migrate based on these memories.Memory inheritance is possessed by all animals, but most of this kind of memory is locked and unable to function, while human memory inheritance, that is, ancestral memory, is completely locked by a genetic lock.

In addition to memory genes, there are more genes that are locked by a big lock in the process of evolution.

And the street boy who became a musician after a car accident was stimulated by external forces, and the memory gene took effect, opening up a small part of the memory of his ancestors.Potential memory refers to the potential of a person. If learning to make fire and use tools is a human ability, then it only accounts for 5.00% of the human body's potential, and the remaining 90.00% is also locked.

When Lu Su heard this, he suddenly remembered what Zhuan Donglai said in the underground palace, so he asked his friend: "Can the dead be resurrected? Can people have supernatural powers? Do you think gods exist?"

His friend was very surprised, thought for a while, and said: "Your last question, I can't answer you, because gods are what you call them in China. I don't believe in your Chinese gods, but I believe in God."

Lu Su smiled and said, "You are engaged in genetic research, and what you do is the opposite of God."
