Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 167 Landing on the Island
After listening to Professor Lin's narration, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, speechless for a while.

After a while, Wu Sidong looked at our haters, quite complacently, said: "So, there is no inferior nation, every nation and country has good people and bad people, we can't generalize."

Tofu cursed, and said, "It's alright, alright, you're the only one with high consciousness, what should we do now, let's burn the corpse?"

Ah Ying seemed to remember what happened before, she almost cried, and said, "Boss Li and I have been touched by that thing, what should we do now, will we be like him, will..."

It doesn't matter whether the body is burned or not. What I am worried about at the moment is exactly what Aying said.Judging by the age of the notes, this was already three years ago.The characteristics of each virus are different. In a certain environment, some may only survive for a few hours or a few days, while some may even survive for thousands or tens of thousands of years.

More than 60 years have passed since the samples kept by the [-] Army, and these Fusang people were still infected, which shows that some of the viruses can survive for a long time, and even exist now.Not only Ah Ying and Carp, but also me who does not wear a mask now, and I also use tofu that I took off the mask halfway through.

If those viruses are really that powerful, we might all have to fall into their hands.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help saying: "This place is too dangerous, let's ignore this corpse, get something and leave quickly." Everyone was a little scared about this place, and they didn't have any objections, so they left the cave to search for it. Applicable wood.After searching for a long time, they were all rotten and rotten ship planks. Everyone couldn't help being very annoyed. The plan we had made was just a mistake. Could it be that we really have to stay in this place full of unknown viruses?

Thinking of the symptoms of the virus described in the notebook, I felt guilty, and said that if it was true, I would be as happy as shooting myself down.Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard the familiar sound of a whale salamander. Everyone cheered up, and Duan Fei smiled and said happily: "It seems that Xiao Hei is back. Let's go and have a look. If it doesn't work, we will Let it carry us for another ride."

We stood on the edge of the shipyard, and indeed there was Xiao Hei next to him. This thing seemed to regard us as a partner. After escaped from the pursuit of the killer whale, it dived back again. When it saw us, it fell silent. Swim leisurely and leisurely.

This humpback whale was originally going to the North Pacific Ocean, and we happened to be on the way. They didn't find a plank that could be used as a raft, so they decided to continue riding the humpback whale.From yesterday to now, we have not had a drop of water, our stomachs are hungry, our mouths are extremely thirsty, everyone is exhausted, there is really no time to delay, we made a decision, we took our bags and swam to the side of the humpback whale , climbed up its huge body.

This thing is very smart, with a flick of its tail, it slowly left the boat burial place. After swimming out for a long time, Tofu slapped his forehead and said, "We forgot one thing, we forgot to burn that person's body." In my heart It is inevitable to mutter, worried about being infected by some virus, how can I have the heart to burn that person's body.There are good things to do, but there are also points. I am not noble enough to sacrifice myself to help others.

Robot No. [-] said: "They have already left, so don't think about it so much, find a way to catch two fish, at least let's put them on."

Robot No. [-] took off his shirt and used the method of tofu before to make a simple fishing net to catch fish, but this time we were unlucky, because we were riding on a whale, and the surrounding sea fish were frightened and swam to the distance. It took a long time to fish. nor.Everyone looked depressed, their morale was low, and some people's stomachs gurgled from time to time.

We let the humpback whales carry it, and there was nothing we could do for a while, and the atmosphere was relatively silent.Seeing this, Tofu cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, don't be too discouraged. We've been drifting at sea for so many days. There were storms, cannibals, and a USO. So far, it's all right. It shows that our group is auspicious and the sky is good, and we will definitely turn the danger into a bargain. Don't cry and look sad, I feel guilty in my heart when I look at it."

Hearing this, Gu Wenmin forced a smile, her clear voice in the past had become hoarse due to the lack of water, and said with a smile: "Xiao Dou is right, let's not be too pessimistic, as long as there are no accidents, we can arrive tomorrow." Time and Space Island, the immediate crisis will be resolved by then. I don’t think everyone should sit still, but watch in shifts to save energy.”

Immediately we were divided into two groups, one group was asleep, and the other group was responsible for observing the course and movement, and so on until night, and from night to the next morning, hunger and thirst made us weak and weak, even Sleep and wake up feeling tired.Seeing the bright sky, Li Yu said weakly: "It's just in the southeast, everyone, be careful, we will go into the sea when we see Time and Space Island, and then swim over."

I pinched my thigh, using the stimulation of pain to force myself to be more energetic.Everyone stood on the back of the humpback whale, and their clothes were also wet from the occasional diving of the humpback whale. In the sunlit sea, they stuck to their bodies sticky, and they always felt itchy all over.We looked around with a dozen pairs of eyes, and after about half an hour, we saw an island appearing in the distance where the sea and the sky meet.

Looking from our direction, the coastline on the front of the island is crescent-shaped, but the back is not clear.

There are lush forests on the island, and there are three protruding small peaks, which are high in the middle and low at both ends, resembling a character "mountain" with a very special shape.

Carp said pleasantly: "Oh, we finally started to get lucky."

Wu Sidong looked very excited, he was a little confused when he heard the words, so he said, "How do you say it?"

Carp explained that because Time and Space Island is located at the junction of the North Pacific Ocean and the East China Sea, the ocean currents under the sea are chaotic. Six or seven days out of ten are covered by sea fog, eddies, and undercurrents, making it difficult for ships to approach, especially sea fog. When rising, not even the island can be seen.And now, the space-time island stands there, clearly, obviously, we have caught up with the good times.

No matter how smart the humpback whale is, it would not obey the command and send us to the island, so when it started to deviate from the space-time island, everyone had already packed their equipment and entered the water one after another.The humpback whale probably couldn't figure out why the dozen or so humans who had been riding on its back for two days suddenly went down by themselves and didn't swim forward for a while.

Tofu patted the humpback whale and said, "Xiao Hei, good man, go where you want to go, thank you for giving us a ride." Swimming in the direction of the island, he also followed. Tofu clicked his tongue and said, "It's over, it fell in love with me, what should I do?"

I said: "What time is it, you still have the mind to talk nonsense, it's not blind, can it see you?" Tofu talked about all kinds of food, and the more he talked, the more hungry he became, and the more hungry he wanted to go to the island. After a while, our group finally landed on the snow-white beach.

These days, we are either on a boat or soaking in the water, and now we are finally on the ground, as if we have injected a stimulant into the body. Everyone’s mental state is refreshed, the tofu is jumping directly on the sand, and the mouth is wow Barking, needless to say the excitement.I turned my head and looked around, looking at the scenery on the island.

At our feet, there is a fine white sandy beach, with snow-white waves washing up from time to time. Because there are few people in this place, crabs, sea turtles, and sand clams can be seen on the sand from time to time. It is different from the coastline in Shenzhen. That place Not to mention the sea turtles, even the rotten shells have been picked up.

Tofu stared at a big crab that was rolled up by the waves, swallowed sharply, and pounced on it. He was too impatient, but was pinched by a pair of big claws of the crab, jumped up in pain, and said: " How to do how to do!"

I was angry and funny at the same time, and said: "Why are you so anxious, don't struggle, put your hand in the sea water, it will let go naturally." Tofu quickly followed suit, and the sea crab quickly escaped as soon as it entered the water.Tofu covered his fingers, looked at the place where it disappeared, looked very sad, and muttered: "I really want to eat you..."

Carp is quite reliable, and he was not in a hurry to catch crabs, but said: "The most important thing is to drink enough water before eating." This is the season when coconuts are ripe, and he soon discovered that There is a coconut grove not far away.When we landed on the shore, we felt like fish in water, and we had no worries anymore. We immediately divided into three groups, one group was responsible for collecting firewood, the other group was responsible for catching crabs and clams, and the other group was responsible for picking coconuts.They didn't eat for two whole days and two nights, their hungry eyes turned green, they all gritted their teeth, swallowed their saliva and worked, and within half an hour, they built a fire, roasted crabs and clams, smashed coconut.

When things are ready, no one can bother to talk, needless to say, gobble them up, it tastes delicious.It’s not that I haven’t been hungry before, but it’s the first time I’ve been so hungry. Although the sea crab and sand clam have no seasoning added, the meat is fresh and tender, and there is a fragrance after roasting. People who eat it almost choke their tongues bite down.

After eating and drinking enough, I breathed a sigh of relief and lay sprawled on the beach.After starving, it is not suitable to walk around, we are not in a hurry to leave, lying on the beach to digest food, and plan the next action by the way.

Now that we are on Time and Space Island, of course we have to continue to work. We don’t have to worry about food and drink here, and we have all the main equipment with us. The only thing left is to fight and work.

I asked Professor Lin: "Where is the exact location of Xu Fu's tomb, do you have an idea?"

Professor Lin shook his head and said, "I'm not sure. The island is not big or small. I'm afraid it will take a lot of work to find a tomb. That's why I asked you to help. I still remember the ability to send out the tomb of anger, so you must have learned the true biography of Mr. Chen, and you have to take the lead in finding the tomb."
