Tomb Raiders Notes: If Innocence Had a Brother

Chengdu, Sichuan

After deleting the text messages on my phone, I reluctantly said goodbye to Gungun at the Panda House.

Follow the instructions, one street away from Sichuan University, and look for the alley next to the old yellow cement house. There is a guest house at the end.

"Boss, accommodation." I glanced at the precarious front desk and finally chose to put my things on the ground.

"Brother, there is no room left." Mediterranean came out from the front desk and said to me.

"Isn't it worth it!?" I looked behind me and Mediterranean Sea was pushed out for me.

"There is a leak in the back and we are repairing the roof." Mediterranean explained. "There's a big hotel on the street in front, you go to that one."

The boss and I continued to talk, and the horn of a truck came from outside. Mediterranean's expression changed, and he called a few people out from behind.

"Little brother, I really don't have a room here. Don't bother me. Just leave quickly." After Mediterranean said that, two more men came out from behind and stood around the front desk like door gods, trying to scare me away with their eyes. The momentum forced me back.

This man is the person who just met Zhang Qiling and Xie Yuchen in the previous chapter, how can he be afraid of them!

As soon as Wu Xie and Xie Yuchen entered, they saw the entrance. The four of them were in a stalemate. When Mediterranean saw them coming in, he picked up the towel on the front desk and wiped his face, commanding the two of them: "Send him out."

"Boss, you're just doing business!" I picked up the things on the ground and took out a box of fried stinky tofu.

Mediterranean couldn't bear it anymore and gave the person next to him a look.

"Give him a room." I heard the voice behind me, smiled brightly, and turned around with the stinky tofu.

"Hey, we meet everywhere in life!" I said in surprise.

Enter from behind the front desk, turn a corner, and suddenly you will see a very elegant European decoration in the corridor. The floors are all solid wood, and the corridor is lined with oil paintings.

I felt it was novel, so I walked beside the Mediterranean Sea and asked: "Who came up with the decoration? What should I do if these oil paintings get damp during the rainy season? Will the floors curl up? Why are they in such a remote place?"

The smile on Mediterranean's face became more and more forced, and he sent us to the room and ran away quickly.

Wu Xie and Xie Yuchen told them to take a bath first and relax. I waved my hand and let them do what they wanted. Squat down and sort out the things I bought.

When they came out, I took the panda hairbands in my hand and fastened them on their heads one by one. "It's a gift for you, you're welcome." After saying that, he picked up the ice jelly and started eating.

The two of them didn't speak, just stood aside. I suddenly trembled and said to the two of them: "You can either sit down or stop standing around like this?"

After Jie Yuchen listened, he sat on the sofa opposite me. Wu Xie thought for a while and sat on the side with Jie Yuchen.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Xie Yuchen spoke first.

Back in time, Hei Xiazi and I came out of the compound. There was a car parked outside. Hei Xiazi pinched the back of my neck and kicked me in. Then he got into the passenger seat and asked the driver to drive back to the compound.

Leaving the main road, the number of pedestrians gradually decreased and there were only a few scattered cars.

About fifteen minutes' drive from the Lijia compound, the driver stepped on the brakes, and a smell quickly filled the entire carriage. Then I heard the sound of a blind man kicking the glass, and then I fell unconscious.

When he woke up again, he saw Li Rui standing by.

"What's going on?" I was still a little dazed, struggling to sit up, and asked Li Rui.

"Someone will explain to you later." Li Rui put a pillow on my back and fed me some water.

"What time is it?" I asked

"It's five o'clock in the morning." Li Rui took out his phone and waved it in front of my eyes.

After a while, Huo Sisi came, and Li Rui went out very wisely.

"How's it going?" Huo Sisi asked me.

"It's okay," I replied, shaking my head.

Next, Huo Sisi told me that we are now in a small village in Hebei. After a brief explanation, she gave me a tablet.

"Did you do it? Do you want to be a female version of Steve Jobs?" I held the tablet in my hand and was shocked. You must know that it is only 2004, an era where smartphones do not even exist.

"Don't be poor! This is military equipment. You can think of it as the predecessor of tablets in later generations." Huo Sisi covered her forehead: "Let me warn you first, don't be a bear, you will get beaten."

I nodded quickly, saying that I was the best.

"Inside are the restored pictures and deciphers of the three editions of the eight formations of wood carvings. You can read them for me as quickly as possible. Three days later, the Huo family and my little brother, the fat man, got up and went to Banai. Five days later, the Jie family and Wu Xie is going to Sichuan. My people will arrange for you to go to Sichuan as soon as possible..."

"So, are you ready from the beginning?" After hearing her plan, I felt like the silly son of a landlord whose family owned hundreds of acres of fertile land and thousands of taels of silver without even realizing it.

"I really admire you so much." Huo Sisi said this with difficulty, as if she didn't know how to describe what I did before.

I covered my face, lay on the bed and wailed, "Am I so embarrassed? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"I gave you a look." Huo Sisi explained.

"When?" I was completely confused.

"When Wu Xie and Xie Yuchen recognized each other, I used my eyes to signal you not to mess around. Who knows, but you grabbed the jade seal. You idiot, why don't you take the jade seal away quietly? You have to come out and talk to the master. One-on-one, two at a time! You can do it!" Huo Sisi became more and more angry as she talked, and simply patted me on the back a few times to vent her anger.

I wailed louder, thinking that Huo Sisi was looking at me to stop me from standing around.

Recall finished

"Then I'll keep the story short." I said to the two of them in the most sincere manner. "Someone in the Huo family got some of the machine blueprints here. That thing is here now." As I said this, I knocked on my head and picked up the ice cold powder again.

Xie Yuchen didn't ask any more questions, picked up his cell phone and went back to the room to make a call.

After that, he never mentioned his intention to return to Beijing again. It seems that Huo Sisi's speech was well prepared.

A local waiter took us to eat Korean steamed buns, walked around some old streets, and had hot pot in the evening.

There were two bowls of water in front of Wu Xie on the dinner table, and soon they were covered with red oil. "Tell the truth, kid, how did you escape?" Wu Xie's tongue was so hot that he couldn't speak.

"Huo Sisi, do you know?" I picked up a chopstick and put the tripe in, counted silently and quickly took it out.

"The eldest lady of the Huo family, Huo Xiuxiu's sister." Wu Xie nodded, and after discussing the matter of clipping the speakers, they exchanged each other's identity information.

"She sent me here." I said.

"She's pretty good to you." Xie Yuchen heard this and said.

"That's natural." I nodded, definitely understanding what Yuchen said. "How is Mr. Hei?"

"He slept all day and all night." Xie Yuchen said with a smile: "Only when he woke up did he realize that he had been cheated on. The blind man has a very good memory, especially a very clear grudge, and he also likes to calculate interest with others."

After listening to Xie Yuchen's words, I waved my hand: "This has nothing to do with me. Besides, I woke up after six hours of sleep. A blind man can sleep for a whole day and a night. It seems that you are squeezing your employees and causing them to lack sleep." Bar."

Xie Yuchen said that when they found Heixiazi, he had been in the car for nearly three hours. Huo Sisi's people were afraid that the medicine was not effective enough, so the concentration was high at first. Heixiazi inhaled a large amount of gas and fell asleep for a whole day and night. When he woke up, if the doctor hadn't said there was no big problem, Xie Yuchen would have been worried that the black blind man would have died inexplicably.

After hearing this, I smiled angrily and muttered, "Then I should apologize to him."

Early the next morning, we left Chengdu, got on the highway, and then started a long journey. I have very few things, just a big travel bag with a lot of local Sichuan snacks in it.

In this way, the mountain gets higher and higher, and the road gets narrower and narrower, and finally we reach the place where we can see Siguniang Mountain for the first time.

As I was going inside, I wanted to switch to a car with better off-road performance. The guys were loading supplies into the car. I saw Wu Xie standing on the edge of the mountain ring road. One step further and I saw the abyss. There was green in front and snow behind. of mountain peaks.

I pulled Xie Yuchen aside, who was talking to the waiter, and stood on the edge of the mountainous road to take a photo in front of the natural background.

The last part of the journey requires motorcycles, and once you enter the mountains, you have to rely on mules. When we got there, the guys unloaded climbing equipment and a lot of stuff I had never seen before.

In fact, the road under our feet is very narrow now, and the only way to move so many things is through a recessed platform.

Jie Yuchen took off his shirt, hung the rope around his waist, and started climbing up wearing only his vest. His movements were indescribably light. It took four hours to reach the destination. He threw down the fixed rope, and the guys assembled the pulleys and transported the equipment up one by one. Then hang down seven ropes.

The ropes formed seven auxiliary rock climbing links. When Wu Xie called me over, I pointed at the ropes in horror and asked the guy next to me: "Shall we climb up along these ropes?"

The guy looked matter-of-fact, "Let's discuss something. Can you see if you can use the pulley of the lifting equipment to send me up." I asked.

The guy shook his head and said the pulley couldn't handle my weight.
