Tomb Raider: Villain System, Start with Umbrella Corporation

Chapter 140: What is scarier than ghosts and gods is the human heart

Zhang Qiling's slender fingers waved rapidly on the porcelain. After a while, the bottles that looked almost identical at first glance were arranged in order, and a magnificent, breathtaking and majestic picture appeared before his eyes.

[Daming Royal Construction Group·Changbai Mountain Yunding Tiangong Renovation Project Phase I·Safety Construction Record]

"Voice-over, that's enough!" Wu Xie was so shocked by the scene that could not be described in words that he stood there. This outrageous voice-over directly brought him to the renovation site of an old dusty residential area.

Curiosity is dead.

The dopamine stimulation brought by human curiosity is a very wonderful thing. The most typical example is the megalithic civilization that is praised as miraculous all over the world. Puma Punku and the Egyptian pyramids weigh only more than 100 tons, and the heaviest Baalbek is only 1000 tons, attracting countless curious kittens to meow at them.

China suffered a clear loss. No matter whether it was the Jingling Palace stone tablet weighing more than 900 tons, or the Yangshan stone tablet made from materials obtained from mountain excavation, the body of the tablet alone weighed more than 2600 tons, and the total weight was nearly tons. This was because the records were too clear, with the number of people, time, and transportation methods clearly written, as if anyone could do it, and there was no sense of mystery at all.

No matter how great a project is, when we realize that it is within the reach of human wisdom, the mysterious veil is removed and it essentially becomes a standardized process of design, construction, and acceptance.

This was a major blow to Wuxie, who graduated with a degree in architecture. As the saying goes, you will hate what you learn, and you will be exhausted by what you do. He likes architecture, but what he likes is the excitement brought by the mysterious conjectures and the stories in the buildings. Who the hell would like to draw drawings and write construction records facing CAD every day!

This one completely hit the nail on the head, and he didn't want to look at it any more.

The fat man was standing far away. Hei Ye was really ruthless. Now his precious flesh was still hurting. According to the plot, Huo Ling should have forcefully kissed the mute, but he didn't have the guts to snatch food from the King of Hell's mouth. He made a little duck's mouth with his fingers, just about to show his respect.

"Come on, come on, let me, the blind man, take over Fatty's bite!" The blind man happily bit Zhang Qiling's cheek, leaving a red mark, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Hehe," the fat man laughed evilly and said jokingly, "You've already done the kissing double, when can you be my nude double?"

The blind man laughed so hard that he fell backwards. Wu Xie looked at the fat man with pity and said, "The only chance you have to do a nude scene is to give me a bath in the bathhouse."

"Hey…"

"Where are you going?" Xie Yuchen was following the captain's script and spoke quickly when he saw Zhang Qiling walking out.

Zhang Qiling didn't say anything and walked out on his own. Xiaohua just saw this opportunity and wanted to test these people's kung fu. She flashed through the crowd like a vine and aimed directly at Zhang Qiling's joints.

His kung fu was all taught by Er Yuehong. He had the skills of a child who had learned how to play a female role, half of his body was made of strong bones and half of his body was clever. He had excellent eyesight and there was no flaw that he could not see when he took action.

With a tentative intention, he attacked the cervical vertebrae, the most vulnerable part of the human body, without reservation.

"It's over, it's over!"

The fat man slapped his thigh with a grin on his face, and Wu Xie asked hurriedly, "What's wrong?"

"This guy has a painless cervical amputation technique passed down from his family." He gestured with his hand, "Just this one move is more effective than any anesthesia. It can make the person unconscious for an hour to a lifetime. Just tell me the number. It's high. Sister Hua, you're walking into trouble!"

Sure enough, Zhang Qiling dodged the attack easily by tilting his head, then slid behind Xiaohua like a snake and lightly touched her. Xiaohua's speed was considered extremely fast in the industry, but he was still helpless against this attack that exceeded the limits of the human body. He let out a dull sound of pain and fell to the ground.

"How is it? Are you okay?" Wuxie didn't think he would kill her, but seeing Xiaohua sweating profusely, he was very nervous.

Tu Dian quickly stepped forward and lent a hand. "It's okay. It hit a nerve."

NPC Zhang Qiling passively starts the plot triggering mode, "This tomb belongs to Wang Canghai, a master craftsman in the early Ming Dynasty. The painting on the jar is the legendary Yunding Palace that he designed and built. I want to go in and take a look."

They came out one after another, the mucus on the drippers' skin formed a slippery film on the ground. They all walked very carefully. Xiaohua, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped.

There was a door where there used to be a brick wall. Light shone into the room, and there was a huge golden nanmu coffin - the Ferris wheel.

Shit! The feng shui of this corpse coffin is played by you clearly.

"Fuck! This is golden nanmu! How rich is Wang Canghai to put such a valuable coffin in the side chamber? Then what is in his main tomb chamber, Gundam?"

The innocent hatred of the rich has expanded to an unprecedented level.

The same construction industry crosses over to tomb robbing, the same workplace configuration, why! Why is he so rich?

Can’t my second and third uncles work harder so that I can enjoy myself while I’m alive?

"This is not an ordinary coffin, it's a corpse-keeping coffin." Xiaohua walked into the ear chamber and carefully looked at the Ferris wheel in front of her. It's called a Ferris wheel, but in fact it's more like a revolving chair we played with when we were children. It's usually an iron prototype turntable with 6-10 chairs on it. Some silly kids run around with it, and some people sit on it. This one is the same, but it's made much more delicately.

A disc embedded in the ground, with 6 coffins embedded in it, will automatically rotate at certain times to ensure that each coffin can be evenly heated... and nourished by the Yin energy.

"Then...should we still open it?" The fat man was a little scared. He was not afraid of anything else, but Wang Canghai, the biochemical pervert. He would not put it in this place with the most yin energy to nourish it for no reason. No one knew what could be opened from the blind box.

Suddenly, there was a creaking sound from the coffin on the acupuncture point. The fat man gave Wuxie a look and asked him to experience it himself.

He sighed helplessly, "Open it, Wuxie is standing here, it would be a bit rude not to open it."

"I have no objection to opening it." Tu Dian suddenly spoke from behind, "But, didn't you notice that we have one more person?"

Under the dim light, everyone gathered around the coffin, except for a solitary figure projected on the wall not far away, which looked unusually ghostly.

"Hehehe...Hey Master? Boss? You you...just say something and stop scaring people over there!"

Wuxie's voice trembled, and he looked in the direction of the light, only to find that the place where people were supposed to stand was empty. Could he have seen it wrong?

Tu Dian pointed at the shadow on the wall. Wu Xie took a deep breath and saw that the shadow was still projected on the wall. Is it a mural? But this tomb owner is too scary. This mural looks real... Ahhhh! He is real! The shadow moved.

The shadow was moving towards them at a rapid speed. Wuxie instantly felt a gust of cold wind blowing towards him, but he could not see any human figure. Without giving it much thought, he shouted, "Why me again!", and kept circling around the turntable.

The invisible strange creature was chasing them relentlessly, and the other people were dumbfounded. Were they playing some thrilling ghost version of the handkerchief game?

Wuxie had limited physical strength and could not run any longer. He didn't know if it was because he got a stitch in the side and his brain short-circuited, or if the burning spirits of Crouching Dragon and Phoenix had shattered his IQ.

Seeing a crack on the coffin lid next to him, he immediately realized that the coffin could be opened! He pushed the crack open with all his strength, closed his eyes and felt inside the coffin. He found a smooth object, gritted his teeth, pulled it out and threw it outside, then... crawled into the coffin himself, not forgetting to close the lid.

Xiao Hua was stunned by her childhood friend's quick actions. She turned her head and looked at Zhang Qiling, and finally turned to the fat man. "He... is always so... quick-witted?"

The fat man also sighed and said, "There's nothing we can do. You've seen it too. Wherever he goes, there are corpses. My suggestion is that if he insists on going to the grave next time, you'd better put him in a coffin and take him down. This might be more auspicious."

"Fatty! Have you ever seen a tomb robber being carried into the tomb by a coffin? This tomb is mainly a misunderstanding that I am occupying the tomb."

Wu Xie's muffled shouts came from the coffin, but the fat man looked unconcerned. "Maybe the tomb owner thought we were sending him a ghost marriage. Seeing that you are young and good-looking, he might be merciful and let me, the fat man, be free to choose any funerary object."

The more the fat man thought about it, the more he thought about it. He slapped his thigh and said that he had lost out and wasted Wu Xie's great opportunity to raise the corpse. "Zhang Mu Si and the blind man can play the suona, and Xiao Hua can sing a few lines. Our team is complete!"

"Haha, a 25-year-old young man committed 1 marriage frauds in one year. The victims had no way to seek justice and had to suffer the consequences. They all sighed that what is more terrifying than ghosts and gods is the human heart. From then on, anti-fraud apps began to become popular in the world of rice dumplings." The blind man leaned against the door, jokingly eating melon seeds.

"Do you need help?" He pointed at the new biological weapons and said, "There are two in the room now~"
