Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 742

The four of us in two tents fell into silence with a distance of about ten meters.

The atmosphere seemed a little weird for a moment.

It was midnight at this moment, the thing on Bai Shuang's body sensed the departure of the natural enemy, so it climbed off her body, and crawled away silently, perhaps planning to return to the nest.After Lu Su finished speaking, he didn't speak again. His eyes moved away from me and turned to the little thing. He didn't ask until it disappeared into the night, "Is there someone in the middle that you can follow here?" Help you?" When he said this, his eyes seemed to have some deep meaning, as if he had already seen through something.

In fact, I have always suspected that before, he actually knew that Lu Su was following him. Seeing his expression now, this guess is even more certain.My heart skipped a beat, and I felt like I was being calculated.

Fighting with some thousand-year-old monsters really makes me feel powerless.But before I made this point clear, I naturally wouldn't say it, so I said: "You should know who will help you. I'm curious, how did you survive until now, and the corpse fairy didn't kill you directly. "

Third Master Bai snorted heavily, as if he remembered something extremely unpleasant.

Lu Su smiled, and said: "At the beginning I took the risk to make that bet with you, so I naturally kept back my hands just in case. I was unlucky and lost, but it doesn't mean that I will be killed by it again." As soon as the words came out, it was obvious that Lu Su had no intention of hiding from me.Immediately afterwards, he talked about the grievances between himself and the corpse fairy. All of this was exactly as I guessed. Lu Su was the same as the Ailao King before he was alive.

Relatively speaking, Lu Su's death was even more unworthy. He was turned into a heavenly soldier and possessed self-awareness, so he was just sealed in a coffin, and he was not able to escape until the real Lu Su and his son broke in unintentionally.

Before Shixian was alive, there was an adventure that changed his life. We descendants will never know about this adventure, but Lu Su is an insider.Lu Su also kept a secret about what this adventure was. It seemed that it was a treasure that he was unwilling to share with anyone. Whether it was Lu Su now or Puzhen back then, neither left a single word or clue.

After he finished the antecedents, he suddenly changed the subject and said, "Have you ever heard of the place 'Beautiful Wonderland'?"

I thought for a while in my mind, then shook my head and said, "I know that there is a fairyland in Kunlun Mountains, which has always been a relatively famous tourist attraction, but I have never heard of Bulaoyaochi. Why, your entry into the Kunlun Mountains this time is related to this Boldyyaochi ?”

Lu Su smiled, and suddenly chanted: "White clouds are in the sky, mountains and mausoleums come out of themselves, the road is far away, between mountains and rivers. The general is not dead, can he come back?" He suddenly came to such a thing, which made me a little unresponsive , in contrast, Bai Shuang understood quickly, and wondered: "Hey, I remember, this is the eulogy from Queen Mother Xi when she bid farewell to King Mu of Zhou, right?"

Lu Su nodded appreciatively, and said: "It is said that King Mu traveled westward and brought countless treasures to visit the Queen Mother of the West, and asked her to teach the art of governing the country and living people, and immortality."

Bai Shuang continued: "The Queen Mother of the West told him that to learn the art of immortality, he must enter Kunlun and cut off the world of mortals. King Mu of Zhou couldn't let go of the Liming people in the world, so he left the Queen Mother later, so he asked this question."

The Queen Mother of the West is said to be a god living on the Kunlun Mountains, and the Kunlun Banquet in Yaotai has always been the object of praise by countless literati. No one can determine whether the myths and legends are true or not. Why did Lu Su bring this up?
When I was wondering, I heard Lu Su say: "When King Mu left, it is said that he brought rare treasures from all over the world to present to the Queen Mother of the West. When parting, the Queen Mother also returned the gift. What is the gift... I am afraid that only Puzhen knows." I ate Surprised, he immediately thought of the key point, and couldn't help being terrified: Could it be that the rest of Puzhen's back then was related to the gift that King Mu of Zhou received in return?One is the Zhou Dynasty and the other is the Han Dynasty. If there is any intersection between the two, then the most likely one is the ancient tomb.

Lu Su stared straight at my face, seemed to have seen through my mind, and said, "It's just as you think. He accidentally entered the tomb of King Zhou Mu and got the gift from the Queen Mother of the West. .”

Bai Shuangting's eyes widened, and he said, "The Queen Mother of the West? Isn't that the person in the myth? Could it be that it really exists?"

I was also stunned and didn't realize it for a long time. I didn't come back to my senses until I heard Bai Shuang's words, and said: "According to research, there was indeed a Queen Mother of the West in the Kunlun Mountain area in history. The people of the country were good at driving tigers and leopards. Snakes can communicate with beasts. The Queen Mother of the West in myths and legends may be a certain king of the Queen Mother of the West."

Lu Su said: "You should have already guessed what the Queen Mother of the West handed over." I nodded and slowly digested the information I heard. The source is here.

Lu Su said again: "Although King Mu of Zhou did not stay in the country of the Queen Mother of the West, the Queen Mother of the West taught him the art of immortality and all kinds of magical methods. It is a pity that King Mu of Zhou is the son of heaven and has many affairs, so he failed to achieve the right result in the end. , and was buried with him."

I said: "That's where Puzhen's mysterious ability came from? He stole the tomb of King Mu of Zhou?" At that time, the scale of the tomb was actually very simple, and there was no feng shui to follow. Being able to run into King Zhou Mu's grave was not ordinary good luck, no wonder it was called an adventure.

It seems that the things obtained from King Mu of Zhou should be quite evil, otherwise Puzhen would not have done so many insane things later, for his own selfishness, wasting people and money, and even serving it with the whole country. It can be seen that the so-called What Queen Mother Xi gave was not a good thing.

When I said my thoughts, Lu Su shook his head.Said: "The Queen Mother of the West has always been regarded as the righteous god of Taoism. It's not because she gave something evil, but because the times have changed, and it has been passed down for too long. No one in the future generations can point it out, and the learning is crooked."

Na Puzhen was just an ordinary person at the beginning. If he said that he was not ordinary, he was proficient in the art of Feng Shui and Kanyu, and he was good at repairing private houses.He got the treasure of King Mu of Zhou. After all, it has been too long since he got it. The cultural difference is there.Before Lu Su was alive, he was also harmed by it. After his resurrection, he began to search for the whereabouts of the corpse fairy.To be more precise, he wanted to take the corpse fairy instead.

However, now that the Corpse Immortal is invincible in the world, what is Lu Su's plan to sneak into the Kunlun Mountains?
What does the so-called Immortal Wonderland have to do with this matter?
Thinking about it, I asked, and Lu Su smiled slightly, and said, "He told me about this." Of course, he was referring to Puzhen. The two should have worked together for a while before their lives. Lu Su was miserably deceived by Puzhen, and was turned into a heavenly soldier after his death.If he hadn't borrowed Dahei's body, he might still be locked in a coffin right now.

There is a magnificent view of Yaochi on Kunlun Mountain, which is so beautiful that anyone who travels to Kunlun Mountain will not miss this beautiful scenery.However, there are not many people who know about the Blessed Jade Pool, because the location and magical functions of the Bold Jade Pool were handed down to King Mu of Zhou through oral transmission from the Queen Mother of the West.

The reason why Puzhen got it wrong at the beginning is that he missed this trick. It is said that the water of the Immortal Wonderland flows out from the deep ice of ten thousand years, the color is like chalcedony, and it has not been sealed for thousands of years.Ordinary people bathe in it, they can be reborn, their appearance is not old, and they can practice the way of longevity.

The Queen Mother of the West probably had an affair with King Mu of Zhou, and the two of them might have taken a mandarin duck bath in that immortal fairy pool.But Puzhen didn't have such good luck. He explored by himself and took many detours. When the meeting came, he had no time.

So, he left that pill in Lu Su's tomb, and if something happened to the Immortal Raising Bureau, he would use that pill to save his life.As for how the pill was refined, although Lu Su didn't say anything, I guessed a thing or two from his expression.

The refining method of this pill is probably also obtained from the tomb of King Mu of Zhou. Puzhen should have done many experiments for this purpose. Not surprisingly, this experiment was completed by him and Lu Su in cooperation.Lu Su smiled, and said: "I thought what I practiced was the medicine of immortality, who knows..." He smiled, his smile was usually gentle, but there was no warmth in his eyes, as cold as ice. Knife.

What is it called?The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows behind.

I said: "Then now you are looking for this old fairyland, is it because you want to...?" Follow Puzhen's old way?I guess, before that, Puzhen will definitely kill him.Lu Su said that he kept a backup, what is this backup?Thinking of this, I glanced at Mr. Bai beside him.

In this incident, what role did Sanye Bai play?
Lu Su obviously understood what I was implying, smiled, shook his head and said, "Do you think I really care about immortality? Chen Xuan, do you think there is immortality in this world? I told you that there is a A friend in genetics, he has always believed that cracking the genetic code is the key to exploring the end of life. In fact, I agree with him. In our era, everything was deified, but now, everything is There are traces to follow. Do you think that the corpse fairy is really a fairy?"

"What do you mean?" His last sentence may be the key point.
