Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 513 Yuanguang

Tofu was startled, and hurriedly stroked the burrowers that fell on his body, but soon he discovered that these burrowers did not only come from the top of his head, but also from the cracks in the surrounding stones, there were also burrowers. Come in, and soon, those fragile bamboo slips and animal skin silk books were all broken into pieces under the crawling damage of these earth-digging insects, and they were all destroyed. .

At the critical moment, Tofu could only froze, closed his eyes, jumped into the hole, and slid down the crack.

As soon as I heard that those animal skins and silk books and bamboo slips were destroyed, I couldn't help cursing in my heart that it was bad luck. It seems that I can't find any clues to the ghost's face this time. , completely solve Huyuduo's problem, otherwise, this trip to Huangquan will really be in vain.

Tofu didn't see Zhuan Rui, and asked where Yin Yang Face was. I was just about to explain the situation here to him, when suddenly, the group of corpses in front of me shook violently, and then, the tightly stacked gap suddenly opened , get out of a person.

Who is this person if not Zhuan Rui?However, at this moment, Zhuan Rui's eyes were closed tightly, his whole body was covered with foul-smelling mucus, half of the mask on his face was gone, and his usual hair was stuck to that half-handsome and half-ugly face , it doesn't look too miserable.

Tofu was shocked, and said: "Damn, the yin and yang face has always been like a president, why did he become a dick in a second!" Having said that, he ran up immediately, touched Zhuanrui's neck, and said: "It's still alive The yin and yang face... Zhuan Rui? Wake up."

Harichagai and I also went up to meet him, but Zhuanrui's eyes slowly opened a crack, but it seemed difficult to focus. He coughed a few times, his chest vibrated, and he said hoarsely: "Small, be careful..." At this time, Hari Chagai suddenly helped Zhuan Rui sit up from the ground. At this moment, his back was exposed, and the Huuduo pattern on his back had disappeared.

I immediately realized that Hu Yuduo had left Zhuan Rui's body.

This is really a great thing. Although we have not been able to find a way to lift the curse and save the corpse fairy, our trip is worthwhile.

Seeing this, Harichagai took off his mask and put it on Zhuanrui's face.Tofu asked in surprise: "What are you doing?" Harichagai said: "Idiot, you don't understand." Immediately afterwards, he suddenly took off a string of ornaments hanging around his neck.This string of decorations is very similar to the decorations we wore on Yao Fang's ancient corpse before. We can distinguish wolf teeth and eagle beaks inside, but the rest of the off-white beads, I don't know what's going on.

Harichagai did this series of speeds very quickly, as if he had planned it long ago, and the whole process was smooth and smooth.After taking off the string of decorations, he couldn't help but stretch out his hand and pull the whole chain, and then he grabbed the scattered off-white beads and divided three of them between Tofu and me, saying: " Put it in your mouth, and then you are not allowed to speak."

This happened suddenly, let us put this unknown thing into our mouths, Tofu and I hesitated, but did not move.If this thing was given by Zhuanrui, I would feel more at ease, but Harichagai is really a weird person, and he doesn't have a deep relationship with him, so this thing can't be eaten casually.

Seeing that Tofu and I didn't move, Harichagai said: "Huyuduo is still inside, it won't let us go easily, it will look for a host again, with this thing in its mouth, it won't be able to sense you, but it can't talk, talk Just break the merits. Of course, if you don’t believe me, feel free,”

At this time, Zhuanrui had already fainted, and Harichagai carried him on his back and said, "Eat it if you want to eat it, and you will fall down if you don't eat it." Speaking of this, I didn't have so many worries. When I put those three beads in my mouth, it tasted a little salty, probably from the sweat on it. Thinking of this, I felt a little sick, and the tofu also had a bitter face, sticking out my tongue.

At this time, Harichagai said: "OK, so we don't have to worry about the future, now we discuss how to go out. Before that, I want to clarify with you a few points. The chain just now has been handed down by my family for eight generations. The ancient relics that you hold are slowly disappearing. These 500-year-old things are not easy to come by. If you spend them on you, you have to count the money. There is no free lunch in this world. Let’s have a friend, it’s cheaper for you , one hundred thousand, you have six in total, and you owe me 60, no problem?"

Tofu's eyes widened, his face turned red, and he jumped up and down.Harichagai said: "Don't stare, I know what you want to say, I am a wizard, I have my own way, so don't worry about why I can talk. The price just now is a friendly price. Spit it out with me."

I smiled wryly. When it comes to business, I have always been the one who tricks others. I didn't expect that the feng shui will turn around, and now I will be overwhelmed by this red-haired boy.But I don't care about it, money spent can be earned back, but sometimes, connections are more important than money.This Harichagai is capable, and the curse has a lot to do with shaman culture, so I might use him in the future. I wanted to make friends with him, so I nodded readily.

Harichagai smiled and said: "Okay, now this group of corpses is dealing with Huyuduo, and there is still a period of time before the dragon and the tiger are fighting. During this period, we are safe, so we have to take advantage of this time to feel Get out. It's full of worms out there now, we've got to figure something out."

Judging by his expression, this kid should already have an idea, so I signaled him to continue with my eyes.

Harichagai said: "There is only one road here, so we have to go back the same way. Do you know why these diggers didn't dare to enter the range of the underground palace before?" Tofu has already found a pen and paper , wrote: do not know!Don't pretend, speak quickly!

Harichagai smiled and said: "When asking others for advice, you should be more polite, because I have no obligation to tell you. The whole underground palace has been painted with some insect repellent, and the smell is very subtle. I believe that this Zhuan The master should have smelled it, and under such circumstances, it is reasonable to say that the diggers would not come in, as for why they are uncharacteristic... I don’t know.” When he said this, he looked at the tofu meaningfully, There was a smirk on the corner of his mouth, which obviously meant something.

My heart skipped a beat, and I couldn't help looking at Tofu. Tofu showed a hint of panic, lowered his head suddenly, moved his lips, and finally regained his composure, showing a look of incomprehension.He is not suitable for lying, his acting skills are too poor, and it can be seen at a glance that there are ghosts in his heart.

I knew that Tofu probably knew the reason why those diggers attacked him.

But why did he pretend not to know?
What is he hiding from me?
In fact, Tofu spends most of his time under my nose. I basically know exactly what he does. If there is anything I don’t know, it is probably the month when he was captured by the corpse fairy.

It seems that all of this is related to that incident.

What exactly is tofu taboo?He has always trusted me. In small things, tofu is very forgetful. Once I was with a client, he called me anxiously and asked me: "Damn, I forgot the password of the bank card. What's the password?"

At that time, I sprayed the client's face with a sip of wine, not to mention what mood I was in. I wanted to kill him, but also wanted to commit suicide. In the end, I could only admit my fate and said, "It's your No. 20 Wuchun's girlfriend's birthday..." Later As you can imagine, the client and I were out of luck, because they felt that I was not stable enough!

Such a person who told me the password of the bank card and I remember it better than him, why is he so secretive about that matter?

I saw Tofu pretending to be stupid with his clumsy acting skills, and I knew it was not the time to ask questions, so I pretended not to see it and wrote: Now the way out is blocked by diggers, what should we do? "

Harichagai withdrew his teasing and weird smile, and said: "Fortunately, we have a fire, and it is not difficult to break out with a torch. The real difficulty is... there are more terrifying things in this place."

something scarier?

I remembered the things I pretended to be Harichagai, as well as the scene where Tofu and Zhuanrui lost their minds, and I said to myself: Is that what he was referring to?Hari Chagai obviously understood something from my expression, and said again: "People in the world only have two religions, Buddhism and Taoism, and don't know about shamans. The oldest religion, you should know that the original belief of human beings is that heaven and earth have spirits: wind, fire, thunder and lightning, birds, beasts, fish and insects, severe cold and heat, flying flowers and fruits, all kinds of strange things make people feel awe. Only later people, Seeing nothing strange, they ignored these good fortunes, Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism began, and shamanism declined. In fact, the culture of shamanism and ghosts is not as simple as you imagine, and the means of playing gods and ghosts is not something ordinary people can understand. "

He always had a playful smile, but when he said it now, he seemed a little heavy, but this emotion was only for a moment. Haricagai then changed the subject and said: "I have explained too much to you, and you don't understand, but you can put it Imagine here as a 'round light' world."
