Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 359 Snow Dragon Mountain

When I heard this, I couldn't help being secretly surprised. Xuelong Mountain is a relatively well-known place in Yunnan, and the locals used to call it Xuelong Mountain.When it comes to Xuelong Mountain, not many people may know about it, but when it comes to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, many people probably know about it.

It is located in the southern section of Shaoli Mountain in the Hengduan Mountains, with an altitude of more than 500 meters. It is strange, beautiful, dangerous and beautiful. The top of the mountain is covered with snow all the year round.In addition to Xuelong Mountain, there are thirteen other snow peaks around it, converging with the Hengduan Mountains, like a snow dragon with several heads growing out, above Fengshui, it is called the 'Ground Vent White Dragon', the dragon energy from the ground, giving birth A snowy area has always been a treasure in the eyes of Feng Shui masters.

Although this Xuelong Mountain has been developed as a tourist attraction, due to its vast territory, there is still a large area that can only be seen with eyes and cannot be approached.Surrounded by snow-capped mountains, the depths are even more inaccessible. If there is a big tomb inside, I absolutely believe it.

As early as the end of the Republic of China, tomb robbers who knew how to observe the wind and water had entered frequently. It is said that some things were poured out of it. Due to the high altitude and harsh conditions of the place, there was nothing to be found, and some even lost their lives. , gone forever.

In recent years, with the development of tourism around Xuelong Mountain, the flow of people has been dense, and there are fewer and fewer people who know how to look forward to the tomb, so the tomb robbers have finally diverted their attention from Xuelong Mountain.I wondered in my heart, Lu Su's statement was really strange, how could old man Zhao send the messenger into Xuelong Mountain?

Not to mention the great distance between Shenzhen and Yunnan, and the depths of Yulong are filled with white snow that has accumulated for thousands of years. What is the purpose of sending the messenger there?
Before I could speak, Tofu asked first, "How do you know that old man Zhao sent a group of messengers in? Why did he send messengers to Xuelong Mountain?" Lu Su chuckled and said, "This matter, What Zhao Erye did was not an ordinary secret. To be honest, with my ability, I couldn't find out. Someone else told me the news. As for how he got it, I don't know. "

Tofu was still wondering who gave the news, a figure flashed in my mind and said, "Is that the young man who is exactly the same as the old one?"

Lu Su looked at me, with a flash of admiration in his eyes, nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, you have always been sharp, and you guessed well. Last time I left your place and told him the news of the map theft, this person also He was helping with the investigation, and his ability was really beyond my expectation, and he uncovered things that I didn't even notice." At the end of the speech, Lu Su's expression became a little serious.

I was also secretly surprised, and said: "It seems that you and him are already on the same line, how much do you know about that person?" At this moment, compared to why old man Zhao sent a group of messengers to Xuelong Mountain, I On the contrary, he was more concerned about the true identity of the mute.

What is his name?
What does he have to do with our Chen family?
Why did he work for the Fusang people?
He suddenly wanted to find the map left by the statement, what was his purpose?
All of these wrapped the mute in a cloud of mist, like a painless thorn, piercing and uncomfortable.

After I finished asking, Lu Su slowly shook his head and said, "He calls himself Wu Shui, but I can be sure it's a fake name. Brother Chen, I won't tell so many lies between you and me. Find me in Wu Shui The next day, I used some contacts to check his information, but found nothing."

I already have a deep understanding of Lu Su's ability. Even he couldn't find any clues. What is the origin of this mute?I couldn't help saying: "He seems to have been staying in Fusang, have you started from this aspect?"

However, Lu Su explained that no matter where the mute was before, as long as he came to China, he would leave a lot of clues, follow these clues, follow the vines, and always find clues.But when Lu Su was investigating the mute, he didn't have any clues. This mute who called himself Wu Shui seemed to appear out of thin air.

Tofu heard this and said, "How dare you partner with such an ignorant person?"

Lu Su smiled, didn't care much, and said slowly: "In our business, there are many things that are unclear. The origin is not important, the important thing is to achieve the goal, the premise is not to be hacked."

The mute's identity is a mystery, and Lu Su has no intention of exploring it. His main focus is on the information that the mute gave him.Based on this information, we discovered that everyone's previous inferences were completely wrong.Zhao Erye's research on the messenger was not to find anything from the messenger, but to use this group of unbeatable and fierce messengers to carry out a plan.

What is the plan?
The mute didn't know, and neither did Lu Su, so Lu Su found Zhao Erye.

After asking this question, Second Master Zhao became short of breath. Lu Su smiled slightly and said, "Second Master, you and I know what you have been doing all these years, and now you have a group of messengers all of a sudden, saying that there is no one among them. I don't even believe in ghosts, I came here today sincerely, Er Ye, you are also a man of honor, although you are in trouble now, but I believe that with your ability, as long as you do more activities and lose some money, you will be able to settle down .”

Second Master Zhao naturally knew the meaning of Lu Su's words. Now, the backer above him is difficult to come forward due to the resistance of Gu Wenmin's father, and this side has conclusive evidence. If he wants to settle this matter , It will take a lot of money to get his son out, which is already considered the best result.But although Lu Su didn't say it clearly, Second Master Zhao understood that if Lu Su's power was added, and this kind of juncture was added to add fuel to the fire and make things worse, then his Zhao family would be finished under the joint suppression of several parties.

This man surnamed Lu didn't use dirty words, and he didn't even say a word of threat, but he drove old man Zhao to the edge of a cliff.

Old man Zhao lit the pipe, sucked hard on the special tobacco leaf with poppies in it, and looked straight at Lu Su. Lu Su smiled. It took about ten minutes for Old Man Zhao to finish the pot of old smoke. He put it down. Yangan, in the smoky room, said in a hoarse voice: "Lu Su, I have no grudges with you in the past, and I have no grudges in the present, why bother to force each other."

Lu Su still had a gentle smile on his face, with respect in his eyes, as if he was looking at his father, and said softly: "Old man, you have a great reputation, I respect you very much, and I dare not say bitter words. However, firstly, that silk book is related to Brother Chen’s wealth and life, and since Brother Chen and I are friends who have lived through life and death, we should help; secondly, the content of this silk book is also somewhat related to my own purpose , I didn't deliberately come to make things difficult for you, in the final analysis, our circle is small, everyone looks up and down, and I'm a junior, if it wasn't for something helpless, I would definitely not bother you today."

Old man Zhao sneered, and said: "The words are really beautiful. I sent a group of messengers into Xuelong Mountain, but it has nothing to do with the silk book. I said it was stolen. If you don't believe me, I can't help it either." After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes and lay down on the chair, his eyes that were always bright were closed together tiredly.

With a smiling face on Lu Su's face, a hint of impatience finally flashed through. He adjusted his sitting posture, leaned forward, and said, "Old man, think about it carefully. Since the silk book was stolen, there must be suspicion People? Does anyone know that you have this thing in your hand?"

The old man Zhao opened his eyes and gave a list of names, including me and Tofu, and the rest, most of them were the people who followed him to the tomb of King Juer more than 20 years ago. At this time, they have entered the ranks of old people, and most of them are retired at home. , only some of their descendants are still working under the old man Zhao.

Lu Su went through these people one by one in his mind, and turned back to investigate the matter. Due to the large number of people, it was really not easy to find out the background of these suspects one by one, and it took a lot of time.When things came to an end, the two biggest suspects were filtered out.

One of them was nicknamed 'Black Wolf' and the other was nicknamed 'Whistle'. When they were young, one was ruthless and murderous, and the other was quick-witted and full of tricks, and they followed old man Zhao around the world.Although they are old now, they are all worth a lot of money, but after all, they are not from the right path, or they are old and guilty, so they are very low-key on weekdays.The previous group of people either died early after something happened, or they have switched to other people, or they have all gone a long way, and they have to wash their hands.

Only these two people have stayed in Shenzhen and maintained close contact with Old Man Zhao, and there are still people following Old Man Zhao. They are the two biggest suspects.Therefore, in the following time, Lu Su devoted most of his energy to these two people.

But at this moment, he suddenly received news from the dumb that old man Zhao's son had been taken out, and old man Zhao closed all the gray industries, leaving only some bleaching businesses to continue.

Lu Su immediately felt that something was wrong. During this period of time, he focused all his energy on Heilang and Whistle. He didn't expect Old Man Zhao to solve the matter so quickly, and his eyeliner didn't notify him. It seemed that he was bribed.

The mute continued: "They went to Xuelong Mountain and disappeared."

Lu Su took a deep breath on the other end of the phone, then smiled, and said, "Talking the tiger away from the mountain, Master Zhao's trick is beautiful."
