Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 488 Cooperation
Now that the corpse fairy has disappeared, there is only one clue left, and that is to find out where the corpse fairy Pu's true abilities came from thousands of years ago.If, the only clue is the content on the silk book that Chen Ci stole that year, the clue about King Juer's tomb.

I'm glad old man Zhao didn't show that document to Bai Zhanji, otherwise he wouldn't be able to fool Bai Zhanji.

Then, Bai Zhanji said: "I will contact Lu Su, I hope you are not lying."

Where did Lu Su and I have any deal? Lu Su probably still cared about the Corpse Immortal before, but now that the Corpse Immortal has disappeared, Lu Su has nothing to gain from me.This lie is only temporary. After I go back, I have to think about what to do about the whole thing.

After Bai Zhanji finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the messengers around him walked away. I thought about it and said, "I'll keep this little fox here for two days. Do you have any objections?"

Bai Zhanji looked at the members of the Shi family, smiled gloomyly and strangely, and said, "Anything you want." Zhong Gong and I looked at each other, Zhong Gong whistled for Yin Yang Hu, and Yin Yang Fox got into the corner of the room After hiding, Zhong Gong and I walked out of the door, and the two of us walked slowly out of the big iron gate of the villa area. Without saying a word, we immediately ran to the car and drove back.Zhong Gong was driving the car, so I called Lu Su immediately.

Fortunately, Lu Su didn't change his phone number, so I opened my mouth and said, "You should know about the corpse fairy, right?"

Lu Su was quite surprised. He smiled softly and said, "How would I know? I'm recovering from my injuries. I'm studying some things by the way. It's hard to be free these days. What? Something happened? Do you think I have someone to watch you?"

I listened to his gentle and smiling voice, and said, "Don't pretend. Something happened to the corpse fairy, you can treat it as dead. You have all the information in the silk book, what are your plans now?"

Lu Su was silent for a long time on the other side, and said for a while: "The tomb of King Juer is no small matter. I have been injured for a hundred days, and my injury has not healed, so I will not leave for the time being. Immortal corpse, what happened?"

I said: "Before answering your question, I hope you will tell me one thing honestly. I know that a large part of the information in that silk book is only known to you and the dead old man Zhao, so I want to ask you, In that silk book, is there any record of how to use the magic lamp?"

After a long time, Lu Su said: "No."

I said: "Okay, no... But, old man Zhao's son, you know? He came back to life..." I heard Lu Su gasping from the other end of the phone, so I explained the reason Listen to him, and after finishing speaking, he said lightly: "Let's open the skylight and speak honestly, what are your plans?"

After a long time, Lu Su said: "Let's be friends, don't take me so badly as I thought. This silk book material was originally obtained by Chen Ci risking his life. And he had this material in his hand at the time, but still Failed to come out of the tomb of King Juer alive. The statement is not ordinary, he lost his life, to be honest, I am not sure to swallow it alone."

I said, "It's rare for you to be unsure."

Lu Su smiled and said: "I am a human being, but I am better than ordinary people, so I need a partner."

I said: "That is to say, you will partner with someone surnamed Zhao?"

Lu Su said: "Yes. No matter what I know, you have been looking for a solution to the curse. Even if you don't have this silk book, I guess you will go there sooner or later, right? If that's the case, why don't you act together?"

I was a little surprised, and said: "I thought, without the corpse fairy, you wouldn't want me to take a share."

Lu Su smiled on the other end of the phone and said, "Of course I won't give you what I want. What I'm looking for is a 'key', and what you're looking for is a way to get in touch with the curse. We don't Conflict, but also can cooperate with each other, why not do it? What's more... I said, believe it or not, I regard you as friends."

I said: "Your words are always so beautiful, how long is the injury?"

Lu Su: "For about a month, I haven't figured out some information in the silk book. It will take some time, and I'm still organizing people. I, you, the surname Zhao... It's too thin to go to the tomb of King Juer like this. .”

I said: "Okay, I'll wait for your news." After hanging up the phone, Zhong Gong saw that I was silent, and asked, "Is it resolved?"

"kindness."

Zhong Gong said: "But I see you are not happy."

"Because I don't know whether this is the end or the beginning." At that time, Fei Dao Bai Lao Si took a fancy to his grandfather's slippery bone disease, and hijacked him to be his apprentice. Looking for a solution, the curse was finally transferred to Grandpa.

It can be seen that there must be clues about the curse in the tomb of King Juer.

That was my last hope, either life or death.

After returning to the residence, Zhong Gong saw the fish in the stone on my table, slapped his forehead, and said: "I forgot about the business. This time I came here, one is to manipulate the Yin-Yang Fox, and the other is to let the head of the house Let me tell you a word, that is, the fish in the stone has the effect of changing fate, but it has to be raised with its own essence and blood like a gu. I also heard from brother Dou that the tomb of the giant ear king has lost countless heroes Inside, it's really dangerous. If this fish is really useful, it's a good way to get the best of both worlds."

I stared at the leisurely red finger-length fish in the fish tank, and my heart was moved, thinking: If it really has such a magical effect, let alone drip blood, I have to offer it with incense.But there are many unresolved and weird things about the matter of flying to the moon. I'm afraid it has something to do with this fish. I really can't do such a thing if I pin my hopes on this little fish.

However, after the incident in the desert, the relationship between me and Zhuanrui is no longer a simple cooperative relationship. He is very righteous, so I said: "Thank you for me, and give him another sentence, Shenwen After cracking it, if you need any help, please let me know at any time, and I will do my best."

Zhong Gong smiled and said: "Don't worry, when you ask for help, you can't even hide. You are the first one who can be listed as a friend by our leader. Before that, it was just a cooperative relationship."

For the next two days, Zhong Gong didn't leave either. The Shi family reckoned it was a mess, and it is said that some Taoist priests were invited to do things like restrain the demons.It's a pity that this yin-yang fox is not a demon, and he couldn't take it away. On the contrary, the Taoist priest saw something at the end, blushed, and ran away without even taking the money.

In the end, the Shi family had no choice but to admit it, and called me to ask what I wanted. I thought about it for a while and said, "Your son is a mental patient. According to the law, he really doesn't have to die, but I hope you can think about it for others. Send him to the place where he should go, that's all we need to know, otherwise, there will be more fun in the future." Now, Bai Zhanji doesn't protect them, and the Shi family also knows that I have reached a certain agreement with Bai Zhanji Even if they were in a line, even if they were suffocating anger in their hearts, they didn't dare to do more mischief. In desperation, they sent the person to a mental hospital, and only then did they understand it.

Zhong Gong brought Yin Yang Fox with him, and said that Zhuan Rui had given him a holiday, and he decided to stay in Shenzhen for a while, eating and drinking with me for a few days.

Afterwards, everything was calm, I concentrated on taking care of the shop, and waited for Lu Su to work together. Not long after, someone came from Fatty Li's house and sent someone to deliver something.The thing was placed on a wooden tray, covered with a layer of black cloth, and respectfully placed on my coffee table.

I lifted the cloth and saw that it was the set of Zijin Dengxian Yuyi, unique and exquisite under the light.

The moment I saw it, I knew our alliance was done.

Life is like this, there is no permanent enemy.

Seeing this set of feather clothes, I squinted my eyes, thinking about the past two or three months.From the disappearance of tofu, to the appearance of the corpse fairy, and then to the trip to the desert, after thinking about it, I decided to contact tofu and tell him about Yuyi's return. Perhaps this is a kind of comfort.

When I called, it was reminded that the phone was turned off, but I couldn’t do it. I put the feather clothes away, and the one-eyed dragon asked me: "Master, do you want me to pay attention to the movement in the market and get the goods out sooner?" .

I shook my head and said, "Not for sale. This thing will never be sold in the future."

Cyclops rubbed his nose and said, "Boss, you have to think about it, this thing is hundreds of millions?"

I am a businessman, so I naturally know how to maximize my profits, but this time I suppressed my reason and said: "This is the corpse fairy's stuff, keep it for it. All I can do... is That's it."

In a blink of an eye, half a month has passed, maybe because I got used to the noise in the store, and now there is one less person. Although the business is still going on, it always feels lifeless.Cyclops sighed with a popsicle in his mouth.I was reading a magazine, and when I heard him sigh a few times, I felt irritable, so I said, "Do you have a toothache or a stomachache?" In the past half a month, I have followed the method given by Zhong Gong to raise the bell fish with essence and blood , every five days, drip a drop of blood in the middle of its forehead, I don’t know if it’s really useful, the life has been stable for half a month, and the business is also very prosperous, I secretly hold a little expectation, hoping that it will really be as Zhuanrui said , use it to suppress the curse.

After I finished speaking, Cyclops put down the popsicle and said, "No, the head of the shop, I feel that there are too few people in our shop."

I knew what he meant, so I said, "Could it be that you and I are both dead?"

The one-eyed dragon said: "No, no, I didn't mean that, hey, forget it, people have to learn to be lonely." After finishing speaking, he continued to daze with a popsicle in his mouth.It's not a Saturday or Sunday, and the business is deserted. I was unavoidably annoyed when I was told by the one-eyed man, so I decided to drive out for a walk.
