Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 614 Map
When I heard this, I felt uncomfortable. Tofu saw that I looked unhappy, so he hooked my shoulder and said, "Don't be unhappy, now that the dumb man is gone, and the clue of the curse is also broken, I know you must feel uncomfortable, but That's good, and it can be regarded as getting out of this pile of shit. In the past, you took care of me, but this time I can't hurt you anymore. Since Mr. Bai is willing to do this, why don't we do it? What's more, I'm with him, if he really has something to do with the old Bai Laosi back then, I might be able to help you find out the truth, so this is a good thing, you should be happy."

I heard that he was so nonchalant, and that he had already thought about it before abandoning himself to protect the others. I was half touched, and half annoyed, and I couldn't help but say, "Since you think so, why does the surname Bai contact me? You Sacrifice here, why should I come to this place?"

Tofu was righteous just a moment ago, and when I asked him so aggressively, he suddenly became embarrassed, scratched his head and said, "This is someone who made a mistake, and the horse made a mistake, that's what I thought about it, but I didn't expect that Bai Sanye would give you I found it. Hey, this old man probably wants to drag you into the water, Lao Chen, you must not be fooled." Immediately afterwards, he told me what happened afterwards.

At that time, Bai Sanye and Doufu would meet in Qibaiju, and the two of them would not beat around the bush when facing Tofu's character. Bai Sanye said bluntly that he came to find Tofu mainly for Lu Su, and if he succeeded in dealing with Lu Su, He took the initiative not to mention what to do with the tofu after getting those two items.

Tofu is not stupid, naturally he knows that the consequences of falling into the hands of Bai and Lu Su are the same. The only puzzling thing is that Bai Sanye doesn't seem to be worried that there will be revenge after the fusion of Tofu and Shixian. There is no such thing as chopping hands and feet or imprisoning us as we imagined for Lu Su. On the contrary, except that two skilled men will follow when going out, everything else is free.

At this point, Tofu asked: "Tell me, is he particularly confident, thinking that even if I merge with Mu Mu, I can't do anything to him?"

This question is also what I am puzzled about, but now, I can't give any explanation for Tofu's question, so I said: "I believe we will meet him soon, these things, when the time comes, ask him Late."

Tofu said anxiously: "I asked, but the one named Bai is just like a Maitreya Buddha, he's so mad!"

"Maitreya Buddha?" I don't understand why such a strange metaphor is used. Bai Sanye is not fat at all. On the contrary, he is energetic and has a straight figure. He looks quite immortal The appearance is really no match for the big belly Maitreya Buddha.

Tofu said: "Yes, if you ask him something, if he doesn't want to answer, he just keeps laughing. I used to read in a book that a smile can bring people closer, and people who like to laugh are generally easy to get along with, but when I met All of them laughed too much, but none of them were good."

I couldn't help but smile when I looked at Tofu's distraught look.Irritability often belongs to those immature people who get angry easily, but they don't know it, but when they get angry, they also completely expose themselves.As for those who are ruthless and cruel, they will never express emotions such as 'I'm poisonous', 'I'm evil', 'I'm angry don't mess with me'.

Sometimes, if you observe the people around you, you will know that the more capable people are, the more kind and humble they are. As for what they think in their hearts, no one knows; while those who are not capable often like to brag Putting on the show, taking the table to show anger, aggressive, seems to have the upper hand, but in fact it is like that fighting cock, the hair stands up, but the asshole is exposed without knowing it.That's why Su Shi had a famous sentence: Thinking back to the time when Gongjin was young, Xiao Qiao was married for the first time, and she was majestic and heroic.Feather fans and scarves, while talking and laughing, the strong captives are wiped out in ashes.

So I said: "If people don't smile at you, do they still cry? Or just talk about whipping you?"

Tofu shrugged and said: "I don't care how they treat me, but seeing their fake smiles, no matter how you look at them, they are also hypocrites, annoying."

I said: "Fortunately, what you met was a hypocrite, so you can still talk here now. If you met a real villain, you might not be locked up in some dark place right now and have your hands and feet chopped off." .”

Tofu shuddered and was about to cry. He said, "Don't chop your hands and feet all the time? My hands and feet are getting in your way. Look at my hands... they are white, thin and long. They are an artist." hand, are they willing to cut it off?"

Just as I was about to speak, I heard a voice behind me and said with a smile, "Don't worry too much." We both turned our heads and saw that it was Bai Ye, and beside him were the two inseparable people, one was Miss Bai.One is a man about the same age as Mr. Bai, with an ordinary appearance and gray hair. He is Mr. Bai's assistant.The last time they met, they were also by their side.

Bai Sanye was still dressed in the same white Tang suit, with his hands behind his back, pacing over, sat casually across from us, with a smile on his face that looked like a kind elder, and said: "It seems that we are very concerned about this matter. , the two of you are still worried. I might as well just say that I have a job in my hand that needs you to come forward to complete it. If this job is completed, it may be a glimmer of life for you." This you , Of course not referring to me, he refers to tofu.

I remembered the matter of Bai Sanye asking me to jump into the pit, and I thought to myself what is this job?Are you going to fight again?What does this bucket have to do with tofu?
Tofu felt even more strange, with a puzzled look on his face, he said, "Is there any work that can only be done by me?" For being so valued, Tofu must have been very proud of himself before, but now, he is not the one who is completely dissatisfied. What an idiot to use his brain, after analyzing the situation, he knew that this job was probably related to the corpse fairy.

Tofu is an ordinary person. He has survived several times in the fight, mainly because he has many helpers. If he is left alone, he will definitely lose his skin even if he does not die.Therefore, Tofu is still clear about how many catties and taels he has. Now, the only thing that is different about him is the soul of the corpse fairy. , Naturally, it has something to do with the corpse fairy.

Our eyes couldn't help but focus on Bai Sanye. What kind of work would he be talking about?
At this time, Bai Sanye gave his assistant a wink, and the assistant took out something from the inner pocket of his bosom.I took a look and found that it was a map, and it was an ancient map.As soon as the map was unfolded, my heart skipped a beat: Isn't this the map I found in the basement of my hometown?
To be precise, this map was taken out by Grandpa from the bottom of the weird bowl in Queen Baoxiang's tomb.

Bai Sanye unfolded the map on the coffee table. The map is naturally different from the one my grandfather left me. The one my grandfather left me is an ancient animal skin scroll, but this one is a hand-painted drawing, and it looks old. The surface of the paper is yellow, and there are obvious traces of frequent touching.

There was a buzz in my head.

How could he have this?

Tofu had also seen the map of grandpa, and he couldn't help showing surprise, and then he glanced at me.

That map has always been kept by me, and it has not been lost. Except for the tofu, it has never been seen by outsiders, so where did Sanye Bai get this map?

I was fine, although I was surprised in my heart, but there was no emotion on my face, this is also the result of long-term practice in the business field.Tofu was different, the surprise was beyond words, and even looked at me.This action did not escape Sanye Bai's eyes. He looked at me strangely and said, "It seems that this is not the first time you have seen this map."

Tofu knew he had lost his composure, and quickly shook his head in denial: "No, no, what kind of map is this? I've only heard of the place name." How could Mr. Bai believe what he said, but the surnamed Bai didn't ask further, but said: "This The map was given to me by an old friend many years ago."

An old friend?

The map was sealed with mud and secretly hidden at the bottom of the big bowl. It was buried with Princess Baoxiang. It was obviously very precious, and it was impossible to have it everywhere.Could it be that the old man Bai Sanye mentioned was my grandfather?

I stared at him, ready to listen to him continue, but I never expected what Bai Sanye said next, he said: "This person is a statement."

Tofu immediately said: "You are lying."

My first reaction was also that it was impossible.

This map was discovered by Grandpa in the tomb of Queen Baoxiang after Chen Ci's death, in order to find a way to lift the curse.

It has been nearly 30 years since all this happened. Chen Ci had already died in the tomb of King Juer at that time. At that time, Mr. Bai was probably in his early twenties. How did they know each other?The most important thing is that this map is something after Chen Ci's death, so how could Chen Ci give him the map in advance?
Immediately afterwards, Tofu seemed to think of something, and said to me in a low voice: "This statement...doesn't refer to the mute? We only know the surface of what the mute has done for nearly 30 years."

As soon as I was reminded by Tofu, I was stunned when I thought of the cooperation between Dumb and Mr. Bai before turning to look at the map in front of me.

Could it be that he is really dumb?
