Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 543 Doubt

He was silent, his eyes were indifferent, from his expression, he couldn't tell anything at all, let alone guess what the mute was thinking at the moment.After eating a piece of meat, Heizi immediately handed another piece over cleverly.The mute glanced at him, reached out to take it, and continued to eat.

Xiao Yu pondered for a moment, then said, "Mr. Wu, are you alright?"

The dumb hummed in response, and Xiao Yu said again: "That Mr. Lu..." The dumb paused while eating, and said coldly: "Life and death are fate, don't worry about him." I wondered for a while, what happened to Lu Su? What's up?It stands to reason that Lu Su has the data in the USB flash drive in his hand, so the mute wouldn't let him ignore it like this.Could it be that Lu Su did something wrong the night before yesterday?Could it be that he made the dumb again?
To be honest, Lu Su's scheming is really terrifying. Back in the Xuanbing Tomb, he used me, the mute and Tofu as pioneers, and waited until the mute was exhausted and finally killed the old man Zhao, the heavenly soldier, before he ran out and sat down. The benefit of the fisherman put the three of us together.Could it be that this time, he made something wrong again?

I opened my mouth to ask, but the mute didn't answer my question. He just looked at the sky and said that it was getting late. Let us not leave the camp easily no matter what happened tonight. We will leave early tomorrow morning. It seems to be true I don't plan to control Lu Su anymore.

Hearing this, Xiao Yu looked at me, Bai Zhanji and the others, and said, "Since Lu Su is not here, then they..." Without Lu Su as a key person, us incidental people, for the dumb team, have nothing to do. It's just optional.

Sure enough, the mute pointed at Feng Gui's hand and said, "He can stay, and the rest can do what they want."

Heizi's eyes widened, and he said nervously, "It's up to you, so we can't touch the baby?" I said, "After going through so many dangers, you still want to touch the baby?" Heizi scratched his head, but said nothing.I saw his expression, as if there was something unspeakable, and I was relieved.There is no one who does not cherish his life, but if he is willing to risk his life in exchange for what he needs, there must be a reason to do so.In this matter, I have no reason to persuade Heizi to give up.

After the mute finished speaking, Feng Guishou sneered and said, "My surname is Wu, I don't want others to follow you. I, Feng Jiang, have been fighting for so many years. I have a lot of money. I don't need money. But it's okay." There are rules, I will fight with Lu Su this time, and now that he is gone, I will not go with you either. Say, what happened to him!"

The mute chewed the food slowly, his dark eyes stopped on Feng Guishou, he paused every word, and said without any emotion: "Are you ordering me?"

Feng Gui grabbed the gun in his hand and said with a sneer, "So what." The gun was provided by the dumb team, but now it is turning against it.I didn't expect that Feng Guishou would turn his face for Lu Su. The surname Lu really has a way of buying people's hearts.

In an instant, the atmosphere was tense, and Bai Zhanji was standing next to Leng Yan with a sinister smile on his lips, as if he was watching a dog bite a dog, obviously he had no intention of helping.After Feng Guishou finished speaking, the mute suddenly smiled, and the corner of his mouth hooked slightly. The smile was fleeting, and then he suddenly raised his wrist. Before everyone could react, they saw a flash of silver light. With a sudden shake, the pistol fell to the ground in an instant, and a silver throwing knife was stuck in the soil.

I looked at the flying knife and was stunned for a moment.

It looks almost exactly the same as the flying knife my grandfather left me.

I thought of the situation where he almost killed the tofu with a knife in the Xuanbing Tomb, and the guess in my heart became clearer: he is a statement!

Why doesn't he admit it?
Why is he still so young after so many years?
Why does he have amnesia?
This series of questions has no answers at all.At this time, the mute looked at Feng Gui's hand calmly, with cold eyes, and said indifferently: "This knife, the reason why your hand is not disabled is because your hand is useful."

Feng Gui moved his throat with his hands, and the muscles on his cheeks twitched slightly, and finally sat down cross-legged, without speaking, but his eyes were gloomy, suppressing his anger.Xiaoyu smoothed things over, saying that it was getting late, so we should arrange a vigil and let everyone rest first.Because the three of us were poisoned by the female ghost tree, we were a little weak, so we were arranged into a group and guarded the first shift.

After a while, everyone fell asleep, and there was only the sound of the bonfire beating in the darkness. Lei Zi saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he didn't speak.The mute was the most poisoned, his face was a little pale, he kept in one position, and only moved for a long time.He looks weak.

My mind was in a mess, and many words were stuck in my throat, but I didn't know how to say them.After a while, I pulled out the flying knife stuck in the soil and handed it to the mute.The mute took the throwing knife and inserted it into his wrist guard.

I finally couldn't help it, and said: "Chen Ci. You are Chen Ci. You have recovered your memory."

The mute closed his eyes slightly, and said coldly: "Chen Ci... what is he?" This sentence made me speechless.After a while, I said: "If you are not a statement, then tell me, why do you use a throwing knife? Why does the shape of the throwing knife look exactly the same as ours? Why do you all look exactly the same?"

The mute opened his eyes, looked at me, smiled again, with a sense of ridicule and contempt, and said, "Then tell me, why Chen Ci is as young as me? I don't know the problem you mentioned. , but I am not Chen Ci, my surname is Wu, Wu Shui."

"That's fake!" I was completely irritated, and said again: "You have already said that Wu Shui's identity is fake! Why deceive yourself!"

Lei Zi on the side coughed dryly, said to let the water go, and then ran to the side, probably because he didn't want to get involved in unnecessary wars.The mute watched him leave, and finally sat up straight, staring at me with dark eyes, and said calmly, "Don't associate me with Chen Ci, do you think I won't kill you?" The next second , The throwing knife in the mute's hand is against the main artery of my neck. This kind of flying knife is very sharp. He only needs a little force, or I move it myself, and the blood is likely to flow profusely.

I froze for a moment, not daring to move at will.

Immediately afterwards, the mute said again: "I will prove it to you."

I said, "How to prove it."

The corner of the mute's mouth hooked slightly, and he said softly: "Throw the corpse of the statement in front of you, so that you can see enough."

After a while, he put away the flying knife and closed his eyes to rest.I just felt cold sweat all over my body, and was blown by the night wind, and the sweat dried on my body.At this moment, I was really confused.He said that he would put Chen Ci's corpse in front of me... Could it be that he really wasn't Chen Ci?
In this world, why are there two people who are so similar?
Then, there was nothing to say all night, and we went to bed after changing shifts.Early the next morning, after breakfast, everyone packed up and set off.The mute made people take back the equipment provided to us. After what happened last night, Feng Guishou seemed to be enlightened. He never mentioned Lu Su and followed behind the dumb team.

Heizi Liushen Wuzhu, regarded me as the backbone, and asked me: "Brother Chen, what should we do now?"

I said, "Follow me. I'd like to see how he found Chen Ci's body." Although Heizi didn't know who Chen Ci was, he understood that the mute and I had a lot of entanglements, so he didn't dare to ask further questions. The mute group walked in front, and we followed behind, and the two groups lived in peace.

But the mute seems to be deeply poisoned, and usually walks at the forefront of the team, but this time he walked silently at the end.His expression and pace haven't changed much. People who don't know him can hardly notice that he is different from usual, but this is not the first time that the dumb and I have fought. To the last second, never fall down.I noticed the paleness of his face and the fine sweat on his wrist.

Suddenly, the mute staggered. Since I had been observing him, I noticed it all at once. Since the distance was relatively close, I immediately reached out to help him and pulled his arm. I noticed that the muscles in his arm were tense. trembling.

My throat choked, and I finally said, "You're the one who still wants to find Chen Ci's body?" After speaking, he bent down and carried the person on his back.A look of strangeness flashed across the mute's cold eyes that had remained unchanged for thousands of years, and he suddenly said, "I'm not your father, don't take me for him."

I suddenly felt a little funny, and said: "Why are you emphasizing this with me? Do you think that I carried you for this reason? Don't think of me as a filial son. For an old man who has never met, his Life or death has nothing to do with me. I will help you only because you have saved me and my brother several times before."

The mute didn't make a sound, and after a while, I heard his breathing gradually elongated, and he seemed to be falling asleep.

Although I said so, in fact, I knew in my heart that the reason for such a move was because I really couldn't separate him from the statement, so on the one hand, I had the urge to kill him, but on the other hand I was worried that something might happen to him.

This is really a kind of psychology that I can't understand myself. Maybe it's like what Tofu said, I'm probably really a pervert.

Xiaoyu and the others were a little surprised, but didn't say anything more. Heizi approached cautiously, observed the mute for a while, and whispered to me, "He looks really young, but he's so powerful. Brother Chen, are you related to him?"

I thought about it, and said, "That's right."

Heizi said: "I heard what you guys said about father last night... Could it be that he is your father's illegitimate son?"

I took a look at Heizi, couldn't help but shook my head, and expressed my admiration for his associative power. I really hope that the mute is Chen Ci's illegitimate child, so that there won't be so many doubts. Unfortunately, this possibility is very unlikely. Low, negligible.

No son will look exactly like Lao Tzu, what's more, according to the mute's current age, he looks at least six or seven years younger than me. If it is Chen Ci's illegitimate son, wouldn't it be born six or seven years after Chen Ci's death? ?
I only know that pregnant women can give birth to ghost babies, but I don't know that dead men can still find babies.
