Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 570 Protection
As soon as the mute rolled, I realized that there was a drop of about two meters from the end of the hole to the ground. He was agile and rolled and stood on the ground smoothly. The light of the flashlight allowed me to see the environment behind the hole clearly. There are actually plants growing, and it looks like an airy cave.I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and jumped out quickly.

During this climb, I had been wearing a gas mask all the time, and I felt suffocated after a long time. When everyone came out of the pangolin cave, they took off their masks one after another to take a breath.The air quality here is not bad, and the surrounding mountain walls are covered with some vine-like plants, which are twisted and entangled, like tree roots, with dense leaves and flowers, making them look lush.

Wen Min swept across this place with a flashlight, observed the surrounding plants, and said: "It seems that this place is not far from the exit. It's really strange that the ghost hitting the wall didn't spread to the entrance of this pangolin cave." Zhong Gong seemed to have thought of something, Just as I was about to speak, suddenly, that cry-like voice rang out again. This time, we could clearly hear the voice coming from directly in front of us.

At this moment, there is a dead end behind us, and the entrance to the cave is two meters high on the left. This place is like the end of a certain cave. The stone walls are covered with dense vines. Many people stand together, but it seems a bit crowded.

At this moment, the cry of the spirit suddenly sounded, which immediately aroused our vigilance, and no one was interested in studying the pangolin and the ghost hitting the wall.Feng Guishou hissed and said: "There is no one here, I don't think someone is crying..." 6
Lei Zi looked like you were talking nonsense, and said, "It's not people who are crying, maybe that old pangolin is crying."

Feng Guishou frowned, ignored Lei Zi's rudeness, and said, "What kind of evil thing is it to take [-]%?"

Zhuan Rui shook his head and motioned us to look at the mute. The two black scimitars from the mute's waist had already been pulled out, and he had started to walk forward, obviously wanting to leave this place.Even if there is really something evil in front of us, we can't just stay where we are. It is impossible to go back to that ghost wall again. In desperation, we can only walk forward along the entrance of the cave.The farther we went, the clearer the crying sound. At this moment, we can already confirm that it is a woman crying.

Under the light, everything around seemed obscure, but those vine-like plants looked very strange.There is no sunlight in this place, but their leaves are lush and green, with purple flowers the size of morning glory blooming among the leaves. There is a fresh plant fragrance in the air, which is not pleasant, but not stinky.

The further we went, the denser the plants became, but the old pangolin before it didn't even have a shadow.

At this moment, the mute in front of me seemed to have noticed something, paused, and then used the black machete in his hand to push away the dense green leaves on the wall.As soon as he pulled it, some white things appeared under the green leaves. When I looked carefully, it was a human bone!
The human bone was hidden among the vines, and it was concealed, so it was hard to see clearly.With a movement of the knife in the mute's hand, some vines around it were cut off, and the human bones inside were immediately exposed. Only then did I see clearly that there were not one but two bones inside, and they formed a strange posture .

Lei Zi stared at the two skeletons, and said, "Hey, these two seem to be having sex, and you still don't forget to be happy and happy when you die, admiration, how do you sing that song? You have to love after death!" I saw the two skeletons, one up and one down, because they were entangled by some vines, so the skeletons had not yet spread out, and their postures could be vaguely seen, but it was a bit like what Lei Zi said.I couldn't help hissing, and said to myself: Who is the owner of these two skeletons?You can play like this in Dou Li, the taste is really strong enough.

Wen Min was standing next to me. Hearing Leizi's words, he said with a serious expression: "Not necessarily, this possibility is relatively small, and you are thinking too far. Looking at the posture of the person above, you don't think it looks like he is Protect the man below?"

The mute said coldly: "It's what it is, just check it." As he spoke, he swung the black knife in his hand, and the vines broke, and the dead bones were scattered on the ground.We squatted on the ground and checked these bones one by one, and suddenly found that there were holes in these bones.

It is a kind of hole similar to the thickness of a little finger, and it is almost found on all cut bones.

Zhong Gong asked in surprise, "Could it be a bullet?"

I said, "Have you ever seen bullets shot right through each other? And who would be so boring as to shoot bullets into human bones, one for each bone?" At this time, Wen Min was surprised: "You didn't Look at this." Without changing her face, she held a skull in each of her left and right hands, and said, "The person above has holes in his head, but the person below has very few holes in his bones. It seems that my guess just now was right. , something must have happened at that time, this person protected him... But unfortunately, in the end, both of them could not escape death."

I have to say that Wen Min's observation skills are very keen. I looked at the two skulls in her hand and said, "I don't know who these two are."

Wen Min said: "I looked at the bones. These are the remains of a man and a woman. The decay of the bones is not serious. It should have happened in the past few decades." In the past few decades?Then there are only Feidao Bai Laosi and the men and horses brought by Mr. Zhao back then. I couldn't help but look at Bai Zhanji. I don’t trust my son at all, who knows if he belongs to him.”

At this moment, the sobbing and sobbing sound became louder, and it seemed that the sound was approaching us, which made everyone tense up immediately.At this time, Lei Zi said something even more frustrating: "This beautiful woman Gu said that the bones are a man and a woman. Didn't she say before that the ghosts of people who died in this place can't get out? This crying for a while Male, female for a while, could it be..." He glanced at the skull that Wen Min was holding with his fingers.

Wen Min was startled when he heard the words, and quickly threw the skull away. Everyone turned on the flashlights and pointed them straight ahead, which is the direction where the sound came from. It seemed that through these lights, something could be dispelled.

At this time, at the end of the light, the male and female soft rice dumplings we had expected did not appear. Instead, there was a white thing in sight, and it was still moving. After moving twice, it disappeared into the darkness with a whoosh sound. Suddenly understood, exclaimed: "It's that old pangolin!"

Getting in touch with a pangolin is better than getting in touch with a zongzi, and everyone ran after the pangolin, wanting to follow the pangolin and leave this ghostly place.As we ran, the whimpering and whimpering became louder. For a moment, I wondered: Could it be that the crying we have been hearing is really made by pangolins?
As soon as this idea turned a corner in my mind, there was a sudden exclamation from the end of the team. I was startled, and I turned around and said, "What's going on!" Fatty Li usually carried it on his back when he was tired, but because Fatty Li was eroded by the Dixielong before, his physical condition was not good, so Bai Zhanji walked by himself during this period, so he and Fatty Li were at the end. The barking was obviously made by the white chicken.

Everyone didn't care about the pangolin anymore, and hurriedly looked back, among the many figures, there was no sign of Bai Zhanji, and the 'fire' that had been following us before disappeared without a trace after we entered the burial pit .I always have a feeling that maybe Huo has become a member of the burial pit. A new ghost broke into a burial pit full of thousand-year-old rice dumplings. What will happen?
I don't know much about the world of zongzi, so I can't figure it out, but it is foreseeable that it is definitely not a good thing.

Fatty Li didn't know why he went crazy, and suddenly pulled wildly at the vines on the side of the mountain wall. Only after he pulled it did we realize that the white chicken had fallen into the densely packed vines.Fatty Li was very strong, and as he was pulling, the flexible vines were torn off by him like a strip of paper, and the green leaves scattered all over for a while, and just as Fatty Li was pulling, the surrounding green vines trembled violently. The crying sound became louder, and then we suddenly realized that the sound was not from the zongzi, nor from the pangolin, but the vines were crying!

I saw that these vines were like snakes, tightly tying the Bai Zhanji, and Fatty Li had already rescued the Bai Zhanji while pulling, but in the next second, a change that no one expected appeared, several vines It shot out from the back of the white chicken like a sharp arrow, piercing the chicken in an instant, and a burst of blood sprayed from the back of the chicken, dyeing a green leaf behind it bright red.

My scalp tingled, and I pulled Wen Min to the front of my life, keeping her away from the trembling vines around me.

However, it was too late at this time, and Bai Zhanji's old face quickly turned white, as if all the blood had been sucked away, and in an instant, he was dragged into the vine again. This time, the voice of the vine It was no longer crying, but a burst of creepy laughter.
