Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 100 Jade Bridge
Feng Guishou was more cautious, and immediately turned on the headlights, shining the light through the brick hole.I could only see the back of the tomb, and I couldn't see the ground at all. It seemed that there was a big cave behind.Behind the tomb bricks, a bridge can be seen, extending into the darkness that we cannot see.Seeing the bridge, Tofu gasped and said, "My dear, this bridge is not for people to walk, but for ghosts, right?"

Through the brick holes, one can see that the bridge is very strange. The bridge body is very narrow, no more than half a foot. If people walk on it, it is almost like walking on a single-plank bridge.What's even weirder is its material. When the light hits it, it looks a bit like jade. The bridge body is very thin, and the light can even penetrate it. Let alone people walking, it is estimated that even if a dog walks on it, it may pass through this thin bridge. The jade bridge was broken.

The jade bridge does not extend forward in parallel, but is arched, with a very large arc, our sight is blocked, and we cannot see the whole picture of the bridge for a while.

Ren Ling beside him suddenly said in a low voice: "Could it be that the Yuqiao Waterfall refers to this?"

My heart moved, and I thought: It seems that the back of this may be the main tomb.It stands to reason that when entering the main tomb, one should see the corpse bed and the golden coffin of the princess. Who knows that there is no golden coffin, but a jade bridge appears. What does it mean?
After hearing Ren Ling's words, Tofu said happily: "Great, we finally arrived at the place, and our hard work was not in vain, but it's a pity... oh, I won't mention it, I won't mention it." His expression changed slightly. Changed, shook his head, and stopped talking.He was a man who never had a good mouth, and he was quiet now, probably because he was thinking about the matter of Wei Nanjing and the two of them, so it was rare that he didn't speak indiscriminately.

I can only pretend that I don't know. It's useless to regret what happened.

This is like the sons and daughters treating the elderly, not being filial when they are alive, and having a big funeral after death, which is meaningless at all.What is the funeral for?To make myself feel at ease.To put it bluntly, it is a kind of selfish behavior. I didn’t serve well during my lifetime. After I died, I feel guilty and uncomfortable. How can I not feel guilty?Give it a nice funeral.

I'm a person who thinks through things. Since what happened, I don't bother to regret it. People are dead, and regrets are all fake. The big deal is to burn two paper money afterwards to make myself feel better. Can Wei Nanjing accept it? When it comes to paper money, it's not necessarily so.

At this time, after finding out the situation behind the tomb wall, Feng Guishou started to remove other tomb bricks.He is very skilled, and every movement of his fingers is as precise as an instrument. I can't help but admire him.The rest of us are on the sidelines, completely out of our hands.After touching for about two hours, Feng Guishou cleared a big hole for people to drill out, and everyone filed in along the hole and climbed to the opposite side.

I was the last one. Before I left, I looked back at the corpses on the ground, and secretly told myself not to follow in their footsteps. Unexpectedly, I felt something was wrong with the corpses when I looked at them carefully. Chilled, he said in his heart: Why is there one more corpse?
A total of five people died, all under Ren Ling's subordinates. At this moment, there are six dead bodies!The lighting is dim, and I don't have a deep impression of those people, so I really can't tell which one is extra.

I blinked involuntarily, wondering if my eyes were dazzled, but when I opened my eyes again, the corpse that had fallen in the dark corner of the wall stood up, and only a shadow could be seen in the darkness.In an instant, I realized that this black shadow must be the one that escaped from the ghost mirror's tomb.

I knew this thing was definitely not human, so I immediately called out: "Lu Su, come back!"

Although my skills are not bad, but I really don't have the ability to catch monsters. If it's a wolf, tiger or leopard, I can fight to the death. If it's a ghost, I really can't do anything. .

In this team, the only one who can deal with these things is Lu Su.As soon as the words fell, Lu Su reacted extremely, and rolled back from the cave, holding the long knife in his hand, and asked me sideways, "Brother Chen, what happened?"

I stretched out my hand and pointed to the black figure standing in the corner. When Lu Su saw it, he was shocked and shouted, "Old Luo!"

Lao Luo?

When he called out, I couldn't help being taken aback, and said in amazement: "Could it be Luo Ren?" Didn't Lu Su say that Luo Ren and Wei Nanjing were swallowed by the evil dragon?How could he appear here?
With a cry, Lu Su ran over. I stood where I was, only to see that black shadow flickering slightly, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.Lu Su ran for a while, with a smile on his face, and suddenly became serious. He lowered his head in thought, as if he was thinking about what was going on. While thinking, he slowly backed away to me, and then lowered his voice and said: "leave here."

I said, "That was really Luo Ren just now?"

Lu Su nodded slightly, and said, "The body and outline are exactly the same."

I said: "It is impossible for a person to disappear instantly."

Lu Su sighed, forced a smile on his face, and said, "Probably... the soul of the wronged person is still there."

I was taken aback, and a chill rose in my heart. If Luo Ren's ghost is really lingering, is he here for revenge?
After Lu Su finished speaking, his expression returned to normal, with a gentle and smiling expression.

He is a typical good face, with a good appearance, plus he likes to smile, so he feels more amiable, but for some reason, I am still not satisfied with Lu Su.I have always believed that everyone has shortcomings. For example, when I meet most people, most people will feel arrogant and difficult to get along with. The shortcoming of Tofu is that it is easy to be cowardly, and sometimes people can't help but want to beat him ; Feng Guishou is too dark and cruel; Gu Meimei has a strong sense of justice, and sometimes she does things a bit rigid and unreasonable;

Among the group, there is only Lu Su, and I can't fault it until now.

To me, he is very polite; to tofu, he is very considerate; to Gu Wenmin, he is gentle and keeps a distance; there is almost no reason to be annoying.

But how can a person's temperament be so perfect?The only reason is that, perhaps, this is all an illusion, an illusion of disguise.

Such a person who can disguise himself from the inside out is truly terrifying.

Of course, I have no grievances with Lu Su, so naturally I will not provoke him, but precautions are still necessary.Although I thought so, others didn't think so.After climbing to the cave, my nose turned out of anger, and Tofu immediately asked, "Is there anything wrong?" Unfortunately, these words were not addressed to me, but to Lu Su. In a short period of time, this boy, Having been bought by Lu Su, the two called each other brothers, as if they hated seeing each other too late, just like they knew each other in the previous life and continued their relationship in this life.

In addition to tofu, Gu Wenmin was also completely bribed. Compared to me, a ruthless tomb robber who repeatedly deceived her, Lu Su, who is gentle, refined and capable, is naturally more popular.I felt a little uncomfortable, and I scolded myself: I'm uncomfortable ass, the surname Gu has nothing to do with me!

At this moment, we are standing behind the tomb, in front of us is a platform covered with black tomb bricks, and at the end of the platform is the jade bridge.We gathered the lights in one place and looked up along the arched trend of the jade bridge. We saw that the jade bridge had a strange shape, with a height of more than ten meters. I don't know why it was built in such a strange shape, but the jade bridge Below, there is an abyss that cannot be seen at a glance, and I don't know how high it is.

Lu Su squatted down and touched the bridge, and then said: "It really is jade." He frowned, then smiled, asked the two people who were tied up beside him, and said, "Miss Ren, I have a doubt, and I hope The two of you can answer." Ren Ling looked unfriendly, looked at Lu Su for a moment, then suddenly smiled coquettishly, and said, "Do you want me to tell you how to cross this bridge? You let me go, and I will teach you myself."

Tofu couldn't help but tremble when he heard her soft voice, and said, "Brother Lu will definitely not be fooled by a beauty trick."

I said coldly: "How are you sure? You are a man yourself, don't you know men yet?"

Tofu looked at me contemptuously, and said, "Old Chen, you are unbalanced, and you can see that you are jealous of other people's demeanor. It's normal for us little dicks to be unable to resist beautiful women throwing themselves into their arms. Look at Brother Lu. Is it an ordinary person?"

I was not happy to hear this, and I thought that this coward who eats inside and out, if I don't teach him a lesson, he really plans to turn his elbows out.

Before I could open my mouth, Lu Su smiled and said, "Of course." With a wave of the knife in his hand, the rope on Ren Ling's body snapped, but I don't know if it was intentional, because the force of the knife was out of control. Well, a long scratch was left on Ren Ling's snow-white arm.

Gu Wenmin frowned slightly, and suddenly said to me: "Chen Xuan, you can't hang out with this group of people anymore." Her voice was very low, she turned her head, almost whispering, the hot air between her lips blew past, making people My ears are itchy.

I was quite surprised and said, "Minmin, what's your opinion?"

When she heard me yelling, a trace of anger flashed across her face, she pinched my arm, and cursed in a low voice: "You're not serious, just yell nonsense." After a pause, she added: "Look, Lu Su You seem to be a nice person, in fact, I think this person is probably more ruthless than Feng Jiangyi. I have met quite a few people, believe me. Although you do things a bit... a bit deviant, but I can see that your nature You're a good person, I don't want to see you and Xiaodou hanging out with such a group of people." She said in a low voice, and we were standing next to the wall, and no one else could hear me, so I couldn't help being stunned I was taken aback.

I thought of my girlfriend Xiao Jing, no matter what I did, she always supported me and never interfered, even if I used to do business and often interacted with some dubious people, she never cared.As long as I'm willing to spend money on her.There has never been a woman like Gu Wenmin who advised me not to be with these so-called villains.

Of course, Tofu will say that, but he is a man, so get out of here.
