Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 645

Everyone took a deep breath in unison, and saw that after the head came out of the wall, the neck was always connected to the wall, and while chasing the tofu, the neck became longer and longer.I was twisting the shovel in my hand, and subconsciously wanted to cut it off, but just as I picked up the shovel, I had a thought: Will the neck of Tofu be broken if I cut it down with the shovel?

Thinking about it this way, I let go of my hand a little bit, and when Tofu saw the head flying out, he was frightened, his left foot crossed his right foot, and his ass fell to the sky, and the head stuck to Tofu's ass all at once , a mouth opened extremely wide in an instant.

I was terrified and shouted: "Hide quickly!" If I wasn't worried about the things flying out of the wall, I really wanted to rush to save people.If it was ordinary tofu, I would definitely run for my life and escape, but now I am a 12-year-old tofu, what do you know, nothing but crying, I was so anxious that I almost vomited blood. Existence is evil, maybe it is some kind of sorcery, I don't know if there is anything that can restrain it?
I thought of the dzi beads on Lanhuo, but at the moment, Lanhuo is in exactly the same situation as us, obviously the dzi beads don't work.

What is it that is so terrifying?
Without waiting to think too much, the thing opened and bit half of the tofu's buttocks, and the painful tofu cried out for his father and mother.I'm so anxious, I can't hit this thing, I can't retreat, it's going to kill us!
If things go on like this, won't the tofu be bitten to death?
In desperation, I came up with an idea, and hurriedly shouted at Tofu: "Don't fucking cry, come back quickly, the head may shrink back when you come back!" After listening to my words, it was like hearing an imperial decree, and hurriedly crawled back enduring the pain.

At this moment, his ass was bitten and he couldn't stand up at all, so he hurriedly crawled back.Sure enough, when he crawled back a bit, the neck retracted a little, and when he climbed to the previous position, the head had closed its mouth and returned to the wall.

Tofu was sitting on the ground, his trousers were also stained with blood, and his shirt was also bloody, making him look extremely horrifying.I helped him up, comforted him, and said to the two lazy people: "What do you think? Are the four of us going to be trapped here to death?"

Lazy frowned and remained silent.

After a while, Mr. Hu said, "I've never heard of such a thing. What's causing the trouble?" After thinking for a while, he seemed to remember something, and suddenly said to the lazy guy, "Quick, take the box just now." come out!"

The lazy guy seemed a little confused, but he still took out the box exuding a strange fragrance.At this time, Mr. Hu took the box to look carefully, and immediately showed a clear look on his face, and said: "We have been tricked, and what we see now is all fake. If I guess correctly, this thing is made of It is made of a kind of wood called 'Corpse Fragrance'. It is said that this wood, like the human face flower, grows on corpses, and it is very rare. Its smell can make people have very realistic hallucinations."

I looked at the dead big yellow duck, and felt that this was unbelievable, hallucination?How can hallucinations kill people?
Master Hu continued: "You haven't carefully observed the patterns on the box, what do these patterns look like?"

Lazy and I both leaned over to have a look. In fact, when this box was attracting insects before, I had already taken a rough look at it. I only felt that its shape was more exquisite, and it was not like what Tibetans could make out at that time, so it should be from Undoubtedly the hand of Puzhen.

The box was black, with patterns of flower vines carved on it. To be precise, there were only vines without flowers, and the curly vines were entangled with each other, giving people a very subtle sense of regularity.I didn't pay attention at the time, but now Mr. Hu asked us to take a closer look. After watching, I suddenly discovered that the shapes among the flowers and vines looked like strange human faces!

Seeing my shocked expression, Mr. Hu knew that we had already seen the clue, sighed, and said: "The person who made this thing is really not simple. The pattern on it should be something similar to a spell. In modern terms, it contains some kind of psychological suggestion, and this kind of psychological suggestion will make everyone who has seen the box have the same hallucination, so that they can't tell the truth from the fake." If Mr. Hu is not careful, he probably would not have thought of it at all. this layer.

I still felt suspicious, so I asked my question just now: "If it is a hallucination, what is the situation of the big yellow duck now?"

Master Hu looked at the big yellow duck that fell to the ground, with a heavy expression, shook his head, and said, "He was killed by himself." At first, I didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but after Master Hu explained it, I finally understood Some.This hallucination is so realistic that people can't tell the difference.Therefore, when the big yellow duck found himself shot in the forehead, the brain gave the order to die. Once the brain defaulted to death, the nine ileum produced a series of signs of death.

Stop breathing, stop heartbeat, stop oxygen supply to the brain.

More than 20 minutes have passed since the big yellow duck died by default.

In other words, the physiological functions of the big yellow duck have stopped for more than 20 minutes, so even if it was not really dead at the beginning, it is probably dead at this moment.

Of course, there is a phenomenon of suspended animation in medicine, which is similar to the state of tortoise sleep. If we get rid of these hallucinations quickly, there may be a chance to wake up the big yellow duck.As for what the big yellow duck will look like after waking up, it is unknown.In the best case, the body is weak for a period of time, and in the worst case, it becomes a vegetative state.

When I heard this, I blamed those damn bugs. If it wasn’t for disposing of them, everyone wouldn’t have taken off their gas masks rashly, and they wouldn’t have untied the parchment to let the smell of corpse-dyed fragrance out. I'm afraid it's too late to wear a mask again.

I can only ask, "So how do I get rid of these hallucinations?" Just ignore it and go?This seems impossible, this kind of super-real experience, what if it bites my hand and my brain gives me a disability instruction?The blood on Tofu's body and the strong smell of blood are so realistic, to be honest, I have some doubts about the authenticity of Master Hu's words.

In case this speculation is wrong, we ventured away and let those things bite?If that is the case, we are afraid that when we are bitten to death, we will still think that everything is an illusion, that would be too sad.

No, we have to do something.

I looked at the corpse-dyed incense box in the lazy man's hand, and said, "Take out the contents first, and then throw this box away... No, burn it!" When the lazy man was discussing with Mr. Hu, but He has been researching the box for a long time, now that I finished speaking, he shook his head and said, "I can't open it, there is a self-destruct mechanism inside, if he is still alive, maybe there is a way to open it." He pointed to the big yellow duck on the ground.

Self-destruct mechanism?

In this way, wouldn't the contents inside be...

For Lazy Guy and Mr. Hu, this thing may only be the goal of a mission, but I know that the things inside are extremely important to me, Tofu, Mr. Bai and Lu Su. Once destroyed , I don't know how big waves will arise.

No, it cannot be destroyed.

But looking at the lazy guy, he seems to want to destroy this thing to protect himself.

I thought for a while and said, "The matter hasn't reached that point yet. Let's think about whether there is another way. Put on the gas mask first, at least for a while." The big yellow duck also wore one, and then we stayed where we were and figured out what to do.

Dyeing Corpse Incense adds psychological hints.

How can I get rid of these two hints?We have been inhaling corpse incense for so long, and psychological hints have been formed. If we don't get rid of these two things, we will be trapped to death by this damn illusion.

At this time, Tofu choked and said: "It's not a hallucination, it hurts to death, woo woo... Mom, Dad... I want to go home." I felt my brain twitching, but I don't Xin Si scolded him, sighed, sat down where she was, and said, "Stop howling, you'll be home soon."

"You are all bad guys. You said you took me to find the treasure, but you ended up looking for a corpse..."

Lazy is more impatient than me, but his effect is the most effective. The scimitar in his hand touched Tofu's throat, and said: "I will kill you if you continue to quarrel." To this intuitive threat, Tofu Still scared, I didn't dare to make a sound.

For a while, the surroundings became quiet.The few of us sat on the ground thinking about it, but we couldn’t think of any solution. If the hallucinations were produced by fragrance, it would be equivalent to a kind of neurotoxicity, but I have nothing to do with medical skills. Even if I know the principle, I don’t know how to do it. Eliminate this poison.

In desperation, we had no choice but to find a way to wake up the big yellow duck first, and gave him chest and abdomen massage. We tried all the measures we could think of, but there was still no movement.

Could it be that the big yellow duck just died here for no apparent reason?And in this way of death?

That's too unfair, right?
