Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 595
At that time, the corpse fairy fell on the ground, almost his entire chest was cut open. It was the first time that Tofu did this kind of thing, and he was terrified. He glanced into his chest.

This is incredible, but I can see that the internal organs in the chest cavity are covered with a thin layer of white fluff. Therefore, at a glance, the chest cavity is not bloody as Tofu imagined. The most peculiar thing is that the internal organs are located in the center , and one more thing came out.

That thing is right next to the heart, and its body is also covered with a thin layer of white hair, about half the length of a finger. The overall shape is like a baby, a white baby that has fallen down.

Tofu was shocked, and said to God, why is there such a small person in the chest of this thing?Could it be that this corpse fairy was pregnant before she died?Isn't pregnancy supposed to be in the belly?How did you get pregnant to your chest?Besides, this corpse fairy is a man, how could the elders be pregnant?
Tofu couldn't run away right now, while observing the baby thumb with white fluff in the corpse fairy's chest, he also looked at the corpse fairy's face, wanting to see if it was 'dead' and if it would get up again mischief.

At this time, Shixian just lay motionless on the ground, his eyeballs became completely stiff, like a puppet, although Tofu didn't understand what happened, but he also knew that he was not in danger for the time being, so he couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief. Panting against the slope.Once he stabilized, the pain in his body would be overwhelming, making people restless for a moment. Tofu put away the dagger and was about to rest, but just as he pulled out the dagger, he suddenly saw the little white man in his chest the size of a thumb. The child seemed to move.

Tofu thought he was delusional, so he blinked vigorously, but in the blink of an eye, the little white man not only moved, but also turned his head, and jumped towards him suddenly.With this jump, the little white man jumped onto Tofu's chest. At this time, only a few rags were left on the clothes on Tofu's body, and the thing immediately lay on the flesh of his chest. , Tofu felt a sharp pain in his chest, and the white baby with big thumbs and arms thick with chopsticks actually tore a hole in his chest and got in.

At that moment, Tofu only felt that something broke into his internal organs. The pain could not be described in words. In an instant, Tofu passed out.

When he woke up again, he found that most of the wounds on his body had healed, and the huge wound on the corpse fairy's chest had also healed together, leaving no scars, but in the corpse fairy's eyes, the manic It has disappeared, and it has completely become a walking dead without thought and consciousness. Wherever the tofu goes, it will follow. No matter how the tofu uses various methods, it cannot be shaken off.

So, Tofu looked for the way ahead, and the Shixian followed behind. The two got lost in the deep mountains, and they were not rescued until they met the seedlings collecting herbs.

Later, Tofu recalled his experience, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. Why did he not die after suffering such a serious injury?My body seems to be different from that of ordinary people. I can't tell you what's different. It's a very strange feeling.

In the next few days, Tofu recuperated in the Shengmiao Village. Since the wounds healed much faster than ordinary people, the wounds on his body healed in less than a week. Then Lu Su and I used the Corpse King Yinshixian, Tofu and Shixian parted ways.

During those days, Tofu was always worried. He knew that the baby had got into his body, and he originally thought about coming back to me to discuss this matter, but as time went by, Tofu didn't dare to speak, because he In my mind, some special memories began to pop up intermittently.

I met him and said, "The memory of the corpse fairy?"

Tofu nodded, smiled wryly, and said: "And it's not just that, the more Mumu's memories appear, the faster my memories disappear. I'll tell you the truth, I can't remember many things from the past now. Now, I can’t remember what my parents looked like, but it’s the memory of the wood, just like my own personal experience, I, I feel... I’m not the original me.” He sat in the white marble On the corpse bed, he sighed, and then said: "Did you later think that I was too kind to wood? I couldn't control myself. Think about it, the pain it caused me before was enough to make me want to skin it with hatred. Dismantling the bones, but the more time passed, the more I couldn't do it, but I had a strange feeling that it was me... I was it."

Harichagai was already dumbfounded after hearing this, and said, "It is you...you are it?"

Tofu nodded, and said again: "It is for this reason that I have not told you about this matter." He looked straight at me, his usual heartless appearance disappeared, and there was a faint hint of love in his expression. With a trace of despair, he said: "I am not me anymore, and I know that it will not be long before my thoughts will disappear completely."

I stared at Tofu's chest, my heart was full of turmoil, and finally said: "Is it because of that thing? Do an operation to get it out."

Tofu scratched his head, pretending to be relaxed, and said, "Don't be funny, do you think it's possible? It's already integrated with my body." After a pause, Tofu continued.

As time goes by, Tofu's own memory becomes more and more blurred. According to what he said now, he has almost forgotten the things before the age of fourteen or five. There are some important memories left. He is afraid of forgetting and sleeps every night. Will force myself to remember.This method may have worked, so his memories and thoughts did not disappear so quickly.The corpse fairy's thoughts will pop up from time to time, and Puzhen's memory will also suddenly flash out from time to time. Although the gate of memory has not been fully opened, when the gate is fully opened, the "person" Tofu will also appear. disappeared from this world completely.

Before coming to the tomb of King Juer, Tofu didn’t have any memories about this place. What really stimulated his memory recovery should be after the death of the person code-named Huo. Seeing the death, Tofu was greatly stimulated in his heart, and his mind was blurred. He vaguely flashed some structures in the ancient tomb. Although he didn't remember them all, the whole structure gave him only two words: danger.

He even had a strong feeling: our group is too weak, we will definitely die if we go in.

I said: "So, you trapped us in that place and want to solve everything by yourself?"

Tofu shook his head and said, "At first I wanted to mix in the team to cover, but then you started to doubt me, and then the further you went inside, the stronger the sense of danger, so...Old Chen, I just hope Before I disappeared, I was able to do some things, but I didn't expect you to come out of there, and there were so many casualties..."

I just felt that my heart was heavy, as if a heavy stone had been crushed.

This is the truth, I have always felt that I have nothing to be sorry for Tofu, this kid is heartless, and I am just wiping his ass when he makes troubles, and it is good enough for him.But now I realize that so many things happened in a time I didn't know.

I walked to the corpse bed and sat next to Tofu, my mind was buzzing. At this moment, I only had one thought: How can I keep him from disappearing?
What is that thing that got into the body of the tofu?Why does it erode the sanity of tofu?Why does it make tofu have the memory of the corpse fairy?My heart moved, and I suddenly thought of a word: primordial spirit.

Taoist cultivating immortality and Taoism pursues the ascension of corpses. The so-called corpses mean that the soul becomes immortal after being separated from the body.This soul, of course, is not the soul of an ordinary person, but the primordial spirit that has been materialized after cultivation. Taoists call it the out-of-body soul of the primordial spirit.

Possessing a primordial spirit is a symbol of ascension to immortality. The three steps of Taoist cultivation are Qi training, alchemy pills, and becoming a primordial spirit. Puzhen uses the energy of heaven and earth to set up a mysterious ice tomb, delusionally trying to nourish the primordial god's immortal body, but who knows? Being destroyed by us, the physical body still remains at the stage of a corpse, and the nourishment of the primordial spirit has been blocked, and it has already become an evil thing, so it is attached to the body of tofu.

The current situation is that the real corpse fairy and tofu are one, and the corpse fairy who has been following us before is really just a walking dead with a half-celestial body.

If the thumb baby is really the legendary soul that thousands of people practice Taoism and one person leaves the body, then what should we do?
Just like Tofu said, the current him is no longer the original him. Before I knew it, my brother was being swallowed up by an evil thing bit by bit, but I didn’t know it at all. Even all kinds of speculation in my heart.

For a while, let me not mention how uncomfortable it was.

At this time, Harichagai heard me talking about the primordial spirit, and said: "I have heard people say that the corpses of people who practice Taoism are the most prone to accidents. In the Qing Dynasty, someone dug out the corpse of a Taoist priest. I bought a big golden elixir. I thought it was a mystery thing, but I didn't expect these strange things to happen. However, what you said is too mysterious. What is the golden elixir road, the primordial spirit is out of the body, from the perspective of our industry , there is actually another way of saying it.”

His words made my heart skip a beat, and I thought that shaman culture has been around for a long time, and maybe there are some unique insights in this regard, which might save the day.So I hurriedly said, "What do you say?"
