Dream of Tomb Raiders Notes

Chapter 64 Preparations, Leaving the Undersea Tomb ([-])

As soon as the little brother's words came out, Wu Xie realized that Ah Ning's expression was very dull, and it could even be said to be dull, which was very different from the previous high-spirited look.Now being pushed to the ground by the little brother, she doesn't struggle, doesn't speak, and doesn't even look at them, as if this matter has nothing to do with her.

And when Mengli saw Aning just now, she only frowned slightly, and then she showed a very cold expression of not being close to strangers, she no longer cared about Aning, and completely lost her previous gentle attitude towards Aning.

The fat man looked at Aning and felt strange, and said: "It's a bit weird for his mother. I scolded her so badly, but she didn't respond. Normally, if I ran a few words against her, she would have kicked her over."

Wu Xie knew that his hands were black, and asked him: "Did you hit her hard just now? You can see that she can't speak. I think it is likely that you hit her too hard and knocked her into a daze."

The fat man was furious, and said, "Stop fucking nonsense, can I treat a lady like this? I pressed her foot just now, and it was still light, without leaving a mark. If you don't believe me, just ask my brother .”

The little brother told Wu Xie and Fatty not to quarrel, and said, "Don't worry, she's fine, but she's not mentally clear. She may have been stimulated by something."

As he spoke, he waved his hand in front of her again and snapped his fingers, but Ah Ning didn't respond at all.

The fat man scratched his head, unable to figure it out, and said, "Could it be that this bitch saw something and was frightened?"

Wu Xie, who was cheated by Ah Ning once, obviously didn't believe it, and said: "She is ruthless, and she has good skills. You have seen how she treats me. How can this kind of person be scared, you must not Being deceived by her, maybe she is just pretending to be like this."

When the fat man heard this, he also became suspicious, and said: "You are right, the most poisonous woman's heart, we'd better be careful, otherwise, let's slap her a few times and see how she reacts? This woman is very strong." , let's slap her down a few times, let her be a chaste and strong woman, with a brazen head and iron arms, and—”

"Nonsense!" Mengli scolded softly, her eyebrows and eyes raised slightly, a little evil, she looked at the fat man and said, "I've watched too many revolutionary movies, and want to learn from the Kuomintang spies? Look at her, are you going to do it?"

"..." The fat man raised his big slap, and slapped Ah Ning's small face twice symbolically. When he found that he really couldn't let go, he said discouragedly: "It's a pity that the fat man has never hit a woman, so he Damn Wu Xie, what do you think we should do?"

Wu Xie didn't spend much time with Aning, and it was impossible to judge whether she was pretending through her actions, but she thought that Mengli and Aning should be familiar, so she asked: "Mengli, what are you doing with her? Are you familiar? What do you think?"

"Ah?" Meng Li was a little surprised, obviously did not expect Wu Xie to ask her opinion, and shook her head. "I'm not familiar with her...I don't know..." In a place where she couldn't see, a dark light flashed in her eyes.

"Ah..." Wu Xie scratched her head, "Then I see, let's tie her up and take her out first. When the time comes, call the police and let the police handle the matter."

The fat man was furious: "Are you fucking stupid or fake? We are fighting against each other. Do you know what it means to fight against each other? Hand it over to the police, you hit your head on a pig, right?"

Wu Xie was really dumbfounded. When the fat man said it, he really wanted to slap himself. He thought why his mother hadn't adjusted his mentality yet, and he thought of himself as the little boss of the antique stall again, so he hurriedly said to the fat man: "I will The few times I went to the burglary, I drove the ducks to the shelves. I always thought of myself as a good citizen. I was used to finding the police when I had difficulties. If I said it quickly, you would treat me as a fart. I will say it again."

The fat man waved his hand and said, "Come on, I don't think you can do anything, let's just look at my brother! Count on you? The day lily is cold."

Wu Xie lost his temper at what he said, so he had to go to see his little brother, who was shining a flashlight on Aning's eyes, and said: "Don't argue, her pupils are dull, and her reaction is very slow, which is worse than 'scared stupid' Too much, it can't be pretended."

Wu Xie saw that the little brother seemed to be very sure, so he had no reason to doubt him, and asked him, "Can you see how it happened?"

The little brother shook his head and said: "I only know a little bit about this, and I heard it when I was doing my own examination. If I want to make a further judgment, I can't do anything. I have to go to a professional hospital."

Hearing the little brother's words, Mengli smiled desolately, she can remember so clearly, how many injuries did you...

Wu Xie sighed, recalling Aning's previous high-spirited appearance, he couldn't help sighing, and said, "Well, I've been watching for a while, but I can't figure out what's wrong, so let's stop thinking about it here. , take her out first and then talk about it."

Several people had no objection to this proposal, and it was unanimously approved. The fat man said to the little brother: "Then this is the trick, don't dawdle, this place is so evil, let's look around, if there is nothing, go out quickly."

Wu Xie had already forgotten where he was. As soon as he said it, he immediately felt a chill, and wanted to leave immediately, but seeing that they each had their own goals, it was hard to tell, so he nodded bravely.

The fat man immediately turned around and illuminated the depths of the cave with a flashlight. Wu Xie followed the light of his flashlight and looked over, only to see that the cave was not very long. Things at the bottom could already be seen dozens of steps away, but the light from the flashlight The penetrating power is not enough, only an outline is shown.

Wu Xie's eyesight is not as good as the fat man's, and he doesn't know what's inside. Now he only hopes that the fat man can't see anything. Hurry up and die, he can't stay in this place for a minute.

The fat man took a careful look, and suddenly frowned, as if he saw something.

Wu Xie followed his line of sight, but couldn't see anything. He only heard him ask softly: "Three, look at the innermost part, is it a tree?"

Wu Xie let out an "ah" and said, "How could there be a tree in the ancient tomb? There is no sunlight here, and no one watered it. If there was a tree, it would have rotted away."

The fat man looked at it for a long time, and he might not be sure, so he insisted on pointing it out to Wu Xie. Wu Xie had no choice but to follow his wishes. He vaguely saw something like a branch, the outline was quite familiar, but he couldn't remember what it was, and said, "I can't see clearly, but it must not be a tree."

The fat man took a photo again, and said stubbornly, "It looks like a tree to me, but it still shines with golden light. If you don't believe me, let's go and have a look."

Wu Xie saw that he was not interested in drinking, and said angrily: "Don't think I don't know what you're planning, even if it's a golden tree inside, can you carry it away?"

Seeing that Wu Xie had exposed the fat man, he didn't take it seriously, and said, "Whether you can carry it away or not, you'll have to check it out, maybe there are some small pieces on the side, if you say we didn't come in, forget it, come in now Yes, if you see something good, you have to take a look at it anyway! Besides, we have come here, it’s not deep or shallow, if something happens sooner, there’s nothing to be afraid of, right?”

Wu Xie was annoyed, but there was nothing he could do. Fatty's logic, he now expressed very clearly—sightseeing, take all after observation.This guy is simply the reincarnation of a demon, whoever encounters it will be unlucky!

Just as Wu Xie wanted to sarcastically say something to him, he saw the younger brother make noisy gestures, and said softly, "All follow me, don't fall behind." He walked straight into the darkness without looking back.

The fat man was overjoyed and stretched out his hand to carry Ah Ning on his back, but Mengli blocked him and said, "I'll come, you go first".

The fat man nodded without thinking, and happily followed. Wu Xie felt strange, but the little brother was walking in a hurry, so he didn't have time to think carefully, so he had to limping along first.

Mengli picked up Aning and followed behind.

"Is it worth it?" Mengli asked in a voice that only she and Aning could hear.

"You are working hard, but that person is enjoying the benefits...Although this is your task, have you ever thought about whether it is really worth it?"

"Are you living happily now? Have you ever thought about getting rid of the current life?...Why don't you break the shackles of life..." Whispering, it seems to be convincing Aning, and it seems to be convincing himself.

Aning's expression was still dull, but a dark light flashed deep in the bottom of his eyes.

The little brother walked ahead quickly. The brick hole was the same width from inside to outside. There was not much way from their position to the bottom of the hole. They soon came to the so-called tree. It is the innermost part of the entire brick hole. The younger brother held up the flashlight and took a photo, and they saw its true face.

It was a huge white coral, as tall as a person, divided into twelve branches, divergent, and the shape was indeed very similar to a tree. The whole coral was well carved, but the texture was very ordinary, not very expensive. thing.

The coral was planted in a huge porcelain pot, pressed with pebbles, and there were many small golden bells hanging on its branches. The golden light that the fat man saw should be reflected by these bells.But these bells are definitely not made of gold, because the patina has already appeared in their gaps. The material inside is probably brass, and the outer surface has been gold-plated to maintain its current luster.

When they arrived at the brick hole, Mengli put Aning down, asked her to sit against the wall, knelt down and touched Aning's head, her gentle voice seemed to be tempting: "Silly girl, I hope you can think about it carefully." think."

The fat man was very disappointed when he didn't see the golden tree, but he didn't give up. He took photos of other places and asked, "Wu Xie, do you think this coral is worth money?"

Wu Xie still had some research on this, and remembering Fatty's virtue just now, she wanted to run on him, saying, "It's not that I'm hitting you. The market price of this quality is 16 yuan a catty, which is not bad."

The fat man was dubious after hearing this, and asked the little brother again, the little brother nodded, and he became depressed all of a sudden, cursing: "Fuck, I thought I got rich this time, but the fucking result is still nothing."

Wu Xie chuckled and said, "Fatty, don't be discouraged. Let me tell you, although the coral is worthless, look at the bells on it. These are good things."

The fat man didn't believe it, and said: "I see you have a smirk on your face, don't lie, I have bought a lot of this broken bell, and it is only a thousand dollars, what do you think it is worth?"

"With your little business sense, of course you can't see it. To tell you the truth, I can't estimate the specific value, but it is definitely worth more than the same volume of gold. Look at the patterns on these bells, which are older than the Ming Dynasty. At that time, it was considered an antique, do you understand what I mean?" Wu Xie replied with raised eyebrows.

The fat man was taken aback by Wu Xie's words, and he didn't know if what he said was true. Wu Xie felt very happy when he saw it, and didn't say anything.

In fact, he couldn't see the origin of these bells. Bells are considered unpopular among antiques. Generally, porcelain and pottery are the most poured. Metal things will rust and require special preservation methods. The museum can be used, but the common people's homes, no matter how rich they are, can't afford such a toss.What's more, the bell is more complicated among metalware, with many small parts, and it is very precious if it is well preserved.

The fat man pondered for a while, but he still didn't believe what Wu Xie said, so he wanted to pick one off to have a look, but the little brother grabbed him and said, "Don't move."

The fat man had already stepped on the basin full of pebbles with one foot, and was pulled down by him. He felt strange and asked him what happened, but the little brother ignored him and asked instead: "Do you still remember this?" Plant a bell, where did you see it?"
