Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 558 Yin Yang Fish

Just as I was talking, there was a gurgling sound in the cave. When I looked sideways, I saw Tofu clutching my stomach and said, "I'm hungry. Don't worry about this thing, let's go out quickly. I want beef jerky." Xin said that the beef jerky was taken by Wen Min to go fishing, so there is no place for you, but his words also reminded everyone that Wen Min didn't know how long he could support, so we should not waste time.Having said this, Zhong Gong looked at Bai Zhanji and said, "The old man has passed out."

I said: "Wake up, or I won't be able to take him into the water." Zhong Gong pinched the white chicken vigorously, and shook him for a long while before the white chicken woke up slowly, and said hoarsely, "W-Where is this?" Tofu leaned forward and said, "Don't worry about where it is, you just need to remember that I saved you in times of crisis."

Bai Zhanji seemed to be recalling what happened when he fell into the water, clutching his forehead, and said, "Falling into the water...the fish...then, what happened next, ghost, some ghost pushed me under the water!"

He suddenly said such a sentence, which shocked us a bit, and Tofu was even more angry, saying: "You are too heartless, I risked my life to drag you into this hole, otherwise you would have I was bitten by a fish. What the hell, you are the ghost, is there a ghost as handsome as me!"

Bai Zhanji was choked by Tofu's machine-gun-like words, probably because he was drowning before, and his memory was a little confused, he said, "I'm sorry..." After finishing speaking, he probably remembered that Tofu was his enemy, and then he said viciously. He glared at Tofu.Tofu snorted, stared back, and said, "That messenger of yours is not here now, what kind of prestige are you showing off, old man, stare again, believe it or not, I..."

Zhuan Rui interrupted the unreliable three people, and said calmly: "Let's go, don't delay any longer." Zhong Gong explained the current situation to Bai Zhanji, and the three of us walked back, holding our breath for a while We entered the water and swam all the way back. When we reached the shore, several people climbed up the ropes. Wenmin was still fishing there, with sweat all over his forehead. It was obvious that she was under a lot of pressure. She was so excited when she saw us come out safely. As soon as he was distracted, he slammed the fishing rod, and the jerky meat was eaten by the armored monster fish that jumped up.

The rest who didn't get the bait immediately turned to us.At this moment, we were still climbing on the rope, and the tofu was at the bottom. The fish were very capable of bouncing, and suddenly I heard the tofu scream: "Ah, ah, my ass!"

At this time, Zhuan Rui and Zhong Gong who were above swung the rope violently and reached the entrance of the cave in an instant, and they breathed a sigh of relief when they returned to the safe zone.I saw Tofu jumping up and down in pain, blood oozing from his buttocks, and a big helmeted monster fish biting the meat on his buttocks, probably thinking: This meat is really elastic, no matter how much Tofu jumps, it won’t let go .Wen Min was the closest, with sharp eyesight and quick hands, he pulled out the dagger and stabbed it into the head of the thing. The thing struggled a few times and finally died, but it still didn't let go.

Zhong Gongqi said: "This fish is very persistent, and it doesn't let go. Could it be that brother Dou's meat is more delicious?"

Tofu was about to cry, and shouted: "You ruthless traitors, you just know to watch from the sidelines, and Miss Gu is the best, I will never trust you again, especially you, surnamed Chen, Break up with you! Hiss...it hurts to death." Wen Min smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, get this fish down quickly, let's go up early, there are many strange birds inhabiting the other side of the lake, I always Worried that they will attack suddenly, let's leave early."

Immediately, Wen Min turned around and motioned for me to treat Tofu's wound quickly. After cutting open his trousers, he found that the fish's sharp teeth were all embedded in the flesh. It hurts enough.I broke off the fish, only to find that there were a lot of thin and short teeth in the mouth of the fish, all of which were embedded in the flesh, and I had to pick them out one by one. I couldn’t find it, so I needed local anesthesia. Otherwise, it would be really painful to take them out one by one, but with local anesthesia on the buttocks, it is really troublesome to not be able to walk for at least a few hours.

Tofu listened to me and said, "How many do you count?"

I said, "I counted, thirteen."

Tofu gritted his teeth and said, "No more anesthetics, come on." I looked at him suspiciously. When this kid got an injection when he was sick, the nurse took a step forward with the needle, and he took a step back while covering his butt. Now is the hero?
Seeing my hesitation, he urged: "Short-term pain is worse than long-term pain. Hurry up." I saw that he didn't seem to be joking, so I clamped the teeth inside, but it didn't work. The muscles tightened because of the pain. I was sweating all over my forehead, and finally I took out the anesthetic and said, "It's a big deal, let's delay for a few hours and go to the cave to rest." After taking the anesthetic, the rest of the process went smoothly. The rope climbs up.

Tofu was carried by Fatty Li, and the group did not dare to make any loud noises, and climbed up in silence.Soon, the iron chain above was already faintly visible, we climbed to the top in one breath, and two of Zhuan Rui's subordinates immediately came up to meet them, and I saw that there was no trace of Feng Guishou.

Is he already gone?
Tofu couldn't move right now, and it would be troublesome to carry it all the time. In addition to the torment of everyone, they were very tired and hungry, so they decided to rest for a few hours and wait for the tofu's anesthetic to pass.At this time, one of Zhuanrui's subordinates named Shen Hao reported to Zhuanrui: "We have been staying here, and Feng Jiangyi left by himself."

Zhuan Rui said lightly: "Have you taken back the equipment we provided?"

Shen Hao shook his head and said, "No, he didn't return, but passed by himself." He pointed to the iron chain below.I was shocked in my heart, and said to myself: What's going on with Feng Guishou?They already broke up with Lu Su, why are they still in this muddy water?What is he trying to do?
Everyone was puzzled and didn't know what was going on for a while.Tofu didn't worry about anything, chewed the biscuit, and said: "Never mind, we are here to find the curse, just look for it with peace of mind, he likes to do whatever he likes. I still like to eat beef-flavored biscuits, yin and yang face, Can you not buy the radish flavor next time, we are not rabbits."

Zhuan Rui said indifferently: "If you don't eat it, spit it out." Tofu immediately became cowardly.

Everyone ate, squinted their eyes and took a nap for a while. The tofu lay on the ground and waited for the effect of the medicine to wear off. After about two hours, we were able to move. Then we packed up our things and prepared to cross this chain in the sky. I know that as long as there is no loud noise, the strange birds below will not be disturbed. This is an experience gained in exchange for death.I subconsciously looked at the rear, and the body of the Japanese woman was carried to the corner.

I couldn't help but think of the scene before she died. Was she really scared to death by the mute?
At this time, Tofu patted me on the shoulder and signaled me not to be distracted. Everyone packed up the rope, fastened the safety buckle, and started to go over the chain again.This time it went smoothly, we didn't make a sound at all along the way, and after a while, we could vaguely see the other end of the iron chain. Through the white mist, we could only see something vaguely on the cliff on the other side. Jumping, when we got closer, we immediately found that this iron chain had been embedded in the opposite cliff, and a square entrance was exposed on the cliff.

Everyone was cautious, and finally reached the end of the iron chain. They climbed up to the entrance of the cliff and found that the two flashing things turned out to be two huge bells.I saw that the bell was the size of a human head, tied by a thin iron chain, and hung on both sides of the entrance. When the majestic wind blew, the bell moved with the wind, and the surface reflected a beating shimmer.

And right in front of us, there is a yin-yang Pisces Gate, but the gate is closed at the moment, it seems that the mutes have already entered the gate, this Pisces Gate is probably controlled by some mechanism.

Tofu pointed to the bell and said, "Could it be that the bell is a switch?" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to pull it. Before I could stop him, he had already pulled the bell down with all his hands. With a sound, the black fish in the Pisces Gate suddenly began to slowly open and retracted into the mountain wall, while the white fish on the other side remained motionless.I looked at the space opened by Heiyu, and found that there was a passage behind, but the passage was very narrow, only half the size of the entire gate.

Shen Hao was surprised; "How could this happen?"

Tofu was also surprised and said: "The wood is too naughty, it's so strange to build a tomb, hiss... Could it be that there is also a passage behind this white fish?" He said, looking at the bell on the other side, ready to continue to pull, At this moment, Zhuanrui stretched out his hand to stop his reckless move, and said, "Don't move, I don't think this Yin-Yang Gate is that simple. The entrance to the tomb is also called Shinto, and Shinto is single, and there will be no more than one." , I suspect that this is a selective mechanism, only one of the two gates of Yin and Yang is the divine way, and the other should not be a good thing."

Zhong Gong was surprised and said: "But, how to judge which one is the divine way?"

Zhuanrui shook his head, and said, "I'm afraid only the people who built the mausoleum would know." Then, he glanced at Tofu, and said calmly, "We have no choice." Tofu opened the door recklessly. Gate, it is estimated that we have no chance of second choice.Tofu shrank his neck when he heard the words, and said, "I didn't do it on purpose. What kind of Yin and Yang gates are you guessing? If it doesn't go smoothly, both gates can be opened?"

Wen Min shook his head and said: "I don't think Puzhen is that kind. If you can choose multiple times, what's the point of the Yin-Yang Gate? Xiaodou, you'd better not touch the second bell. I guess if you Yes, something will happen."

Tofu scratched his head and said, "Then what if I make the wrong choice?"

Zhuan Rui snorted and said, "I just remembered this question now, it's too late."
