Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 478 Deception
Zhuan Rui didn't speak, his lips were chapped, he was panting heavily, and looked at me calmly.

Tofu also seemed to understand the reality, and sat on the ground holding the corpse fairy tightly, holding the corpse fairy's hand tightly and saying nothing. In fact, we have no extra choice at all now. At this speed, we can't run much, the only one The result is that we are devoured, and the corpse fairy may escape by itself, because before that, it has shown its taboo against this thing.The quality of the few of us combined is not as good as that of a corpse fairy. We will not stop if we are swallowed, but will continue to expand until we are full and will cause a huge disaster.

And to stop all of this, there is only one way, and that is to use the corpse fairy sacrifice to stop everything before it happens.

The crescent-shaped oasis is gradually shrinking, and the green place quickly fades into a dim yellow desert, and the concept of time is completely distorted.My rationality has made me make a decision, but emotionally, it is really unacceptable.

The corpse fairy seemed to feel something, tilted his head, his eyes slowly turned on me and Tofu.It only recognizes Tofu and me now, and ignores everyone else. I have never been able to figure out why.

At this time, the oasis had completely disappeared, and I knew that the big invisible mouth was approaching us. I took a deep breath, and my heart darkened. When I was about to speak, Tofu suddenly said to the corpse fairy: "Wood, go to the corpse!" go forward."

I was stunned for a moment, but Tofu lowered his head, and I couldn't see his expression clearly.The corpse fairy shook his head slightly, and squeezed out a few fragmented words: "No...go...no...go..." Tofu got up and kicked it, saying: "Must go! There will be a reward later."

The corpse fairy moved its eyeballs, opened its mouth, and couldn't speak for a moment, it seemed to be hesitating, and then slowly moved to the sand dunes, my heart was pounding and the blood in my body seemed to be a little bit Being taken away, the whole person sat on the ground, completely speechless.

The corpse fairy walked about ten steps, then suddenly turned his head and said slowly, word by word: "No... can... go...forward...to go."

Tofu smiled, and said, "Trust me, it's okay." The corpse fairy seemed to hesitate, but finally started to continue walking, as if it was a little afraid, its steps became smaller and smaller. The form suddenly disappeared.

At this moment, the space in front seemed to be distorted, forming groups of spiral patterns visible to the naked eye. This huge twisted spiral twisted crazily, and suddenly disappeared without a trace.

The huge pressure around us also suddenly loosened, and there was only a piece of yellow sand in front of our eyes. The hot wind blew by, and the rolling sand went away with the wind, getting farther and farther away.

There was deathly silence all around, I looked at Tofu, and found that there were big tears in his eyes, and finally he swayed and fell to the ground suddenly, I was shocked, and quickly helped him up, I guess I was hit too hard, and I fainted. I don't even have to mention what it feels like. This is really a helpless choice.

I didn't see the Corpse Fairy turned into powder, and I don't know what happened to it, but what's the use of thinking about it now?

Zhuanrui closed his eyes, and said for a moment, "Let's go." I carried the tofu on my back, and everyone set foot on the schedule. This trip, the only gain is probably the divine writings that I have carved out in the secret room before. Zhuan Rui helped, otherwise our sacrifice would have been in vain.

On the way back, we met a team from Zhuanrui who came to pick us up. According to the picker, we had been missing for 20 days.Batu waited for us at that place for five days, which was the maximum level of our supplies at that time. He didn't dare to go down rashly by himself, so he came back to report.

With the support of the team, the return journey was much easier for everyone. During the period, Tofu woke up once, his eyes were dull, and he was silent. I felt uncomfortable, and I didn't know how to comfort him.After leaving the Tengger Desert and on the grassland, we went to Bilier's yurt. The old man asked us to find out the truth about Xue An before. We explained the cause and effect. Bilier closed his eyes and said He was meditating on something, which seemed to be words like prayers.

At this time, Ouyang Xuan's condition had also stabilized, and when she regained her senses, she acted as an interpreter again, and heard the old man Bilier say that the greatest regret in his life was over when he found out the truth of the matter. He knew a well-known shaman in Inner Mongolia, but that shaman was eccentric and didn't see outsiders. In order to thank us, he was willing to make an introduction and translate divine texts for Zhuanrui.

As a result, Zhuanrui decided to hide in Inner Mongolia for a while, and asked about Tofu and me. I thought about it and said, "Good luck, I hope this rubbing is what you need. It's over, I'm going back Shenzhen."

Zhuan Rui nodded and said, "If you need help in the future, just ask." Immediately afterwards, he stretched out his hand, and we shook hands.It should be said that although Zhuan Rui and I have cooperated several times, this is the first time we shook hands. Before, we were partners with relevant interests. Now, we probably admit that the other party is a friend.

Immediately afterwards, he looked at Tofu at the side, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just shook his head and said, "Thank him for me." Then, the next day, Tofu and I boarded a flight back to Shenzhen, where I went back to my shop that afternoon.

The one-eyed dragon is really a bargain, and the shop is well-kept. Seeing us coming back, he greeted us cheerfully, hooked Tofu's shoulder, and said, "You're finally back, and we'll have an extra meal tonight." The one-eyed dragon People are easy to see, work reliably, and be serious when they should be serious.Relax when it's time to relax, and when you have nothing to do on weekdays, hang your shoulders with tofu and go shopping.

Normally, Tofu would have been yelling and hungry, but now he just shook his head and said, "You guys go, I'll go up to sleep." Then he went upstairs.Cyclops was very shrewd, and asked in a low voice: "Master, what happened this time?" He glanced twice and asked, "Why didn't our model come back?" The model he was referring to was the corpse fairy Well, since the modeling oolong, Cyclops has given the corpse fairy such a nickname.

I just felt throbbing pains on my forehead, couldn't help shaking my head, and said, "Dead. Don't mention it in the future. I'm not here these days, has anything happened?"

The one-eyed dragon said: "Yes, in the future the proprietress can't contact you, and the phone calls are coming from the shop. If you are in a hurry, please call back quickly." I nodded, went upstairs to wash up, and lay on the bed with Gu Meimei. Talking on the phone, Wen Min gave a rough overview of the experience during this period, "I never thought that something like this would happen. It seems that Xiaodou was the one who was hurt the most this time. You have to comfort him."

I thought for a while, and said, "I don't know how to comfort him. Normally, he yells out when he feels sad, but this time there is no sound. I think something is wrong."

Wen Min thought for a while, and said, "There is no sound of great sorrow. In the past two years, I have been born and died, and it has been very turbulent. I think it's better to rest for a while."

I didn't quite understand what she meant, so I asked, "How to rest?"

Wen Min said: "Take a break, find a place to relax, and put the rest of the things aside for now."

When I thought about it, yes, since I went bankrupt two years ago, I started to enter the circle of Dou Dou. Tofu followed me around, and I really didn’t have a two-day birthday. Let alone him, sometimes I think of a bunch of shit. , will feel exhausted.The matter of the corpse fairy this time has dealt a great blow to Tofu. I can almost imagine what kind of pressure he was under to make such a decision and trick the corpse fairy into it step by step.

It is not uncomfortable to deceive someone who has nothing to do with you, but to deceive a person who trusts you wholeheartedly, even pushing him to death, this kind of psychological pressure is a heavy blow to any person with conscience.

Lu Su had a broken rib before, and he was hurt for a hundred days, so he would not come to the door so early. I thought about it, then accepted Wen Min's opinion, and decided to wait for two days, rest, and find someone else. place to relax.

I checked the nearby information and chose a place called Longpan Mountain in Dongguan not far from Shenzhen. There is a natural hot spring underground there, and it is a newly developed scenic spot.I made some plans and decided to go there for vacation.Miss Gu has no cases on hand recently. She is an official lady, and she does not work for money. When she heard about the hot springs, she asked for leave without saying anything.

On the third day, after finishing my plan, I opened the door of Tofu’s room, dug out the person who had been sleeping in the bed, and said, “Go to the hot spring tomorrow.”

"Not interested in."

I said: "I'm not asking for your opinion, I just want to tell you that Wenmin will arrive this afternoon..." After thinking about it, I said: "I remember you have two classmates who are very good at playing, how about taking them Invite people to go together." The nearest social circle is full of people who come and go in the inverted circle, this time the travel plan is based on decompression, call some people outside the circle, and chat about different topics , helps to reduce stress.

Tofu lay on the bed, and said sullenly: "Then you and Gu Meimei have been to the world of two people, and drag me to be some kind of light bulb."

I said in my heart: I have no interest in soaking in hot springs at all. Wen Min and I did this for you, didn't we?If you really live a two-person world with her, I will definitely kick you far away first.I can only say this in my heart. In fact, I don’t feel good about the corpse fairy. Firstly, it’s out of emotion, and secondly, I planned to let it avenge my grandfather, but now, it’s all in vain.In the final analysis, I have a purpose for bringing the corpse fairy, but tofu has no purpose. Maybe, as he said before, he raises the corpse fairy as his son, so his current mood may not be what I can understand .

So I said: "I know you feel uncomfortable, but you still have to live, don't you? You have lost your soul these days. Is it useful to lie on the bed to avoid problems? If you lie down like this, you will soon become a rice dumpling. This matter Resistance is useless, so it's settled. Give me the phone..."
