Tomb Raider: Starting from the Valley of Insects, integrating Golden Silkworm Gu

Chapter 23 Ghost letter reappears, fog and suspicion

The building will collapse and no one will survive.

Unless you can move instantly!

Seeing the huge canopy of the tree less than half a meter away from him, Shi Lei was confident of surviving.

His hands were broad and strong, and his heartbeat was steady, completely opposite to Shirley Yang in his arms.

Even though he has participated in countless adventures and has rich experience in survival in the wild, his heart still beats wildly when faced with a life or death situation.

Three seconds later, a ray of light shone on the earth, and the dark night was torn apart by the sun like a curtain, revealing a ray of crescent moon.

The imagined pain did not appear, and the body was still healthy and complete.

"I... all right?" He stretched out his hand to look, and the skin wasn't even broken.

"It's just incredible."

"It's nothing." A deep and deep voice came from behind, and Kong's strong, muscular arms hugged her shoulders from behind.

"..." I was at a loss for words for a moment, my mind went blank, and I instinctively pushed it away.

Looking at Shirley Yang's blushing cheeks, Shi Lei raised the corners of his mouth slightly, remembering the scene of escaping from death just now.

The canopy pulled the wreckage of the plane, and it all fell on them.

At the critical moment, he used lightning to move and rushed to the safe space ahead at extremely high speed.

In an instant, the two moved 20 meters away, and only the dust stirred up when the big tree fell fell on their skirts.

When she came back to her senses, Shirley Yang was standing half a meter away, staring at him thoughtfully.

"Look what I do?"

"Nothing, I just verified my own conjecture."

He shook his head helplessly, he didn't care about conjectures, he only cared about whether these abilities were really useful.

As for other people's eyes, it will not have any influence on him, whether it is ability or state of mind.

The two stood for a while, then heard Fatty and Old Hu shouting from a distance.

"Commissioner Shi, Chief of Staff Yang, where are you? I heard a reply."

"Fatty, go over there and have a look, I'm afraid he might be crushed by a tree."

The content of what was said reached his ears word for word. Seeing the voice fading away, he stepped forward and looked for it.

"Sister Yang, go find Fatty and the others."

"Ah."

They looked at each other in silence all the way until the four of them got together and the atmosphere eased.

"Why did you come over there? Lao Hu and I thought you were crushed under the tree!"

The fat man looked surprised and walked around the two of them, "It's amazing, there are no injuries at all."

"We came down before the tree fell." Shi Lei weakly argued, seeing the fat man was dubious, he hurriedly took out the Chicago typewriter.

"Fatty, old Hu, look at this, it's a good thing."

"Chicago Typewriter!" Both of them's eyes lit up, they held the gun and couldn't put it down.

When he ran for his life just now, he carried three submachine guns alone, but he was exhausted.

"It would be great if we could make these things smaller, and then make them bigger when they are used." He thought to himself as he looked at the ammunition carried out at the risk of his life.

"There are four in total, one for each person. The ammunition is all in the bag. There are not many. Please take it easy."

"Don't worry, it's all right!"

A few people fiddled with it for a while, looking at the mess in front of them, they were very moved.

When I first came here, the two banyan trees here were intertwined, which was a rare spectacle in the world.

But now, there are only withered branches and horned owl carcasses all over the ground.

This thousand-year-old tree was too big and fell so quickly that the eagle owls had no chance of escaping.

Even if there was, they were bound and dragged back by the vines controlled by Shi Lei.

In the end, they were all crushed into meat patties alive, leaving no one alive.

Looking at it, he suddenly remembered the golden-eyed horned owl.

It is the strongest here and should be the king here.

It's a pity to die here. It would be great if he could be under his command.

There was silence for a while, and the few of them packed their packages alone, planning to find Snake River.

At this time, the sun was slowly rising. Although there was only a little light, it was enough to see what was under his feet.

drop by drop...

A strange yet familiar voice sounded, and Shi Lei felt numb from the back of his head to his heels.

drop by drop...

The voice became louder, and the fat man's eyes widened sharply.

"Did you hear anything?"

"I heard it, it was the ghost signal that appeared last night." Shi Lei responded.

As soon as these words came out, several people took submachine guns in their hands.

"Don't be nervous, I'll go over and take a look."

"Commissioner Shi, be careful, this ghost signal is too weird, it's probably something dirty!"

After Lao Hu finished speaking, he took out something from his backpack and handed it over.

"This is...a black donkey's hoof." Shi Lei never believed this, but looking at Lao Hu's sincere face, he could only reluctantly take it.

"I'll go with you."

"No, you guys are here to respond. If there is any movement later, just shoot."

After saying that, he turned around and walked away, not giving Shirley Yang a chance to say anything more.

The ghost signal came from inside the tree. This time the beeping sound was different from before. It was emitted continuously, not intermittently like before.

He held the gun in his right hand and the black donkey's hoof in his left hand, and walked cautiously.

Although he knew what was inside, he still remained cautious.

After the banyan tree collapsed, the road that was easy to walk became rough, with broken branches and dead horned owls on the road.

Although the sun has risen, there is still some darkness in the dense forest.

Thanks to the night penetration ability, his speed is not slow.

At this time, the black donkey's hoof also came in handy.

Bow down to remove obstacles and clear a path for yourself.

Soon, he came to the big tree, and Didi's voice became louder and louder.

He stopped, put the things in his hands aside, and took out the paratrooper knife from his backpack.

"Huh? This seems to be where Shirley Yang and I shot."

Looking at the bullet-ridden bark, memories came flooding back.

Without thinking too much, he swung his paratrooper knife and chopped it up. After a few strokes, the already rotten bark turned into debris and fell to the ground.

In one go, he directly opened the small hole with his hands.In the next second, something bright appeared inside.

The sun hits it and shines brightly.

Smiling slightly, "It seems that this is the blood coffin."

Without calling the three of them over in a hurry, he continued to slash upwards with his paratrooper knife.

Not long after, a round of sweat stains appeared on his back, and most of the work in hand was completed.

Now, using both hands and feet, he pulled out the last huge tree root, finally revealing the blood coffin inside.

It was a coffin that looked like jade and crystal. The patterns carved on the outside were complex and exquisite, and there were some incomprehensible characters.

There was a red liquid inside, which made the coffin redder as one looked into it.

The liquid inside is not blood, it is very thin and shiny, and it is very fascinating under the sunlight.

Seeing it with his own eyes felt different, and his heart couldn't help but beat wildly.
