Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 394

I was annoyed by the mute's words that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. The tofu soup made me uneasy, and I jumped up and said, "No, I can't take it anymore. I want to teach him a lesson today." After speaking, he took a deep breath In one breath, he began to greet the eighteen generations of mute ancestors.

I almost had the urge to cover my face. I thought that Tofu was going to stand up for me and was going to fight the mute, but who would have thought that it would be a verbal war.In this regard, the dumb is really inferior to tofu, because the dumb doesn't bother to fight with each other.

Instead, I slapped Tofu on the head and said, "Shut up."

The mute sneered, and said coldly: "I don't have time to listen to you singing oboe, if you don't want to die, just follow me." Then he turned and left.Tofu and I hurriedly followed. As for where we were going, the dumb man had no intention of explaining.

Countless thoughts flashed through my mind, but now I can't ask them. This dumb person is like Xuan Bing, arrogant and indifferent, and also hard. Don't try to break a crack in him.In the current situation, it is probably useless to ask about the statement, so I asked a more realistic question and said, "You have to tell us where we are going now? It's been three days. Have you been in this place all the time?" Hang around?"

The mute only left me and Tofu behind, and turned a deaf ear to my question, making people feel like they are facing a piece of iron walnut and it is difficult to speak.

Tofu comforted me and said, "Forget it, it's not that you don't know the virtue of being dumb. Anyway, let's follow him... He must be looking for a way out. In short, it's right not to lead us to die. But you know what? , Walking in the mute, I feel very safe, he will face any danger first, well, this is his only advantage."

I was speechless for a while, staying with too stupid people, sooner or later I will be assimilated, looking at Tofu with a leisurely expression, like an outing, I feel headache, stomach pain, and egg pain.

At this moment, the mute suddenly stopped, clicked his tongue, and revealed a hint of disdain and sarcasm in his words: "Here we come again."

At this time, a yellow halo appeared in the darkness ahead, as if someone was approaching.I stopped and stared at the beam that was getting closer and closer. The closer I got, the stronger the light, and then a figure appeared.

Tofu exclaimed in a low voice, "It's Lu Su."

But he saw that Lu Su's clothes were in a mess, and he was panting heavily with his ghost crying knife in one hand.

The first thought in my mind was: Is this thing real or fake?

The moment our eyes met, Lu Su's pupils shrank for a moment, and he pointed the knife at the mute. His usually gentle voice was now particularly severe and nervous, and he said to Tofu and me: "This is a fake, stay away from him." a little!"

Tofu looked bewildered, and said, "Who is real and who is fake?"

I pulled the tofu back a bit, farther away from the mute. The reason why I did this was not because I believed the words of the opposite Lu Su, but because I was naturally very vigilant and would not trust others easily. .Whether the dumb is real or not, I just need to know that the tofu is real.

When Lu Su pointed the knife at the mute, the mute looked even colder, staring at Lu Su with cold and arrogant black eyes, and then pulled out the two black waist knives around his waist.Almost without a word of extraneous words, the two attacked each other at the same time.

My main focus is on Lu Su, because the Ghost Crying Knife in Lu Su's hand can deal with those soft rice dumplings that are good at changing. If one of the two is a fake, then two situations will occur.

First, if Lu Su is fake, then his Ghost Crying Knife is also fake, so it won't work on dumb people.

Second, if the mute is fake, then Lu Su must be real. In this way, Ghost Crying Sword can completely solve it.

Unexpectedly, after the two swords clashed, there was a bang, and nothing changed.With just this blow, the mute and Lu Su stopped at the same time.

Both of these are genuine!
Lu Su looked at the mute in surprise: "You are also trapped here? I thought you had already figured out a way to get out."

The mute was obviously also a little surprised, the coldness in his dark eyes was even worse, and he said coldly: "I also thought you had left."

Immediately afterwards, the mute sat down on the spot, looked at the equipment bag that Lu Su had thrown aside, and said, "Is there any food left?" Lu Su immediately said, "Yes." Then he opened the equipment bag and took out Some food was passed to us.The mute probably hadn't eaten for a long time, so he didn't speak, and ate silently with dry food. '

I couldn't help but think of the food that Lu Su gave me and Tofu before. Don't mention how entangled it was. Tofu is so heartless. While eating, I asked Lu Su: "I don't understand. You've been stuck in this place for three days, why are you meeting now?"

This is also a question that puzzles me, so I wait for Lu Su to answer.

Then I heard Lu Su say: "After entering this place, we encountered many strange things, such as this maze that we couldn't get out of. No matter how we walked, we would return to the same place in the end. In the process of walking, he suddenly disappeared." Lu Su Su pointed to the mute beside him, and continued: "Then I have been looking for a way to get out. During this process, I saw many fake people, including you..." Looking at Lu Su's tattered clothes, I It is estimated that this kid probably suffered a lot because of this.

After listening to Tofu, he went to look at the mute, and said, "What about you? It's the same?" The mute answered with a hum.

I can't help but feel strange.

This place is obviously not just a ghost hitting a wall or a maze, it will isolate people, so Dumb and Lu Su have seen a lot of fakes in the past three days, but they have never really met each other, but why now? met?
Obviously, I am not the only one who is thinking about this question, Lu Su is also thinking about it, he pointed to me and Tofu, and said, "Maybe it's because of you, your arrival has broken a certain balance."

Tofu asked, "What balance?"

Lu Su shook his head, showing a helpless smile, and said, "If I knew, we wouldn't be trapped here now." After a pause, he looked at Tofu and me, and said, "It's you, you have suffered internal injuries. , how did you get here?"

Before I could speak, Tofu had already 'described' the whole thing with spit.

"... That day the soldiers were about to tear Lao Chen apart. I thought no way, dare to bully my brother, so I pulled out the square nails on his legs, and a burst of red smoke came out. We sucked it After breathing out the smoke, all the injuries on my body will be healed, is it strange to you?"

Hearing this, Lu Su presumably knew that Tofu had changed positions. He glanced at me with a half-smile, and then said to Tofu, "Brother Dou is really brave. It seems that you are a blessing in disguise, no wonder you can come here."

Paused, he seemed to be thinking about something, squinted his eyes, and after a while, said: "The art of refining corpses mainly uses gold and stones as medicine, and the combination of pills and mercury. The red smoke may be the accumulation of corpse refining. The medicine that came down. However, it can have such a miraculous effect...it’s not simple.” When he said this, he looked at the mute, who stopped eating, leaned his back against the ice wall, and closed his eyes , I don’t know what I’m thinking.

Knowing about each other's situation, I said: "Now we are trapped here, and it is obvious that those ghost-like things are playing tricks. What do you think now? We have to find a way to get out of here."

After a while of silence, Tofu said, "First of all, we have to figure out whether this is a ghost hitting a wall."

Lu Su shook his head and said, "I've tried everything that should be tried. I think the key point is the balance. Why was the balance broken after the two of you came in?"

I recalled this experience and thought that Tofu and I did not do anything unusual, so why was this balance broken?Thinking about it from another angle, if I can break the balance by doing nothing with Tofu, then what is this balance?
people?
man?

At this moment, the mute suddenly spit out two words: "Heavenly Soldiers."

Celestial soldiers?

The eyes of the three of us focused on the mute, he opened his eyes, his dark eyes were as arrogant as ever, and said coldly: "The red mist made them smell like heavenly soldiers."

Lu Su said sternly: "You mean, these things are not valid for Brother Chen?"

The mute nodded.

I felt something was wrong and said, "If the soft zongzi regarded us as heavenly soldiers because Tofu and I were infected with the aura of heavenly soldiers, why did they change into Lu Su's appearance to harm us before?"

The mute asked coldly: "Did it harm you?"

I was at a loss for words for a while, and my heart said that it seemed that there was no.Although they may have eaten dead human flesh for us, wouldn't the Heavenly Soldiers just eat that?

Hearing this, Lu Su slapped his hand and said: "That's easy, let Brother Chen, you two clear the way ahead, and we will follow you." So far, there is only one try.

Before that, we have to make some preparations.With the previous experience that Lu Su and the mute were suddenly separated, everyone tied a rope around their waists, so that no matter whether it was a ghost hitting the wall or something else, they couldn't separate us.

Then, I took the searchlight and walked in the front, with the dumb second and Lu Su third.Just in case, Tofu was placed last in the lineup, and the four of us started walking along the passage in front of us.In the silent ice cave.You can only hear the sound of footsteps, and there is no reference in the monotonous ice cave, giving people a feeling that they have never left the place at all.
