Tomb Raider: Villain System, Start with Umbrella Corporation

When this group of people walked out of the tomb, each of them had a solemn look on their face and the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

"Nezha, you know the most!" Wuxie sneaked up to him and asked stealthily, "Do you think I really shouldn't be alive?"

Zhang Musi frowned. Tsk, he was the worst at comforting children. Besides, Tu Dian was not wrong. After thinking for a while, he spoke.

"Look, let me analyze your family's affairs for you."

"Your grandfather's silk book was sold in 52, and then Xie Laojiu returned to Changsha. In the same year, Zhang Qishan massacred the Nine Gates."

"Your grandfather, the prime suspect, fled to Hangzhou, and then at this critical juncture, the Xie family married their daughter to your grandfather."

"right?"

Wuxie nodded. That was right. That was what his grandmother said.

"Yes."

Zhang Musi nodded. Zhang Qiling looked at the two of them from behind and then looked away in an instant.

"They got married in the same year. In 54, Mrs. Huo went to Hangzhou to visit your grandmother, and then your grandmother gave birth to your father..."

The more Wuxie listened, the more confused he became. What did this have to do with his problem?

"Think about it, why would the Xie family be so enthusiastic about marrying their daughter to a suspect who might be shot at any time?"

"Why... why?"

"You're asking me?" Zhang Musi blushed. This...it's really hard to talk about other people's family gossip.

"How can I say this..."

Xiaohua secretly felt bad, "Don't..."

"Of course it's a trap set by the Xie family!" Zhang Musi was so excited that his face turned red with excitement, just like the expression of Aunt Zhang at the village head when she was gossiping about her wife.

"Let me tell you, I guess when Xie Laojiu came back from Japan, he was probably influenced by the local culture. When he saw his beautiful cousin, he decided...right..."

Wuxie: ...Is this also the content of the 20-year vortex? Digging directly at the ancestral grave?

"In China, people would be drowned in spit, so we can only find a scapegoat to take the blame! Who else would be more suitable than your grandfather to be shot if caught?"

Wuxie: …

"But I guess the baby didn't survive and must have been aborted." Zhang Musi made a reasonable guess and said with genuine regret, "Your grandfather should have known about it, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to Yinchuan to play with snakes right after getting married and escaped a disaster."

Xie Yuchen believed that no one could be better than him in catching details and flaws, but he was not into gossip and rumors.

The melodramatic plot itself carries a strange energy that confuses people and amplifies their rationality, making every rational brain cell clamor to go on strike, and a devilish voice rings in the mind.

Listen to it, and act like an idiot. It's so exciting! Where else can you hear the gossip about your grandfather?

"Or maybe the first child was given to the Xie family after it was born." Zhang Musi became more and more excited as he made up stories. "Your grandfather played with snakes in Yinchuan for eight years. Maybe your children..."

“Wait, wait… wait a minute!” Wu Xie hurriedly called a halt. The one in front seemed to be okay, but the one behind was just spurring his horse and whipping it, and he couldn’t catch up even if he tried.

"Big Brother, thank you for helping me get rid of the crime. You have cuckolded my grandfather to the point of Leifeng Pagoda."

Zhang Musi raised his hand and his little face turned red.

"I hereby declare that all the above statements are pure nonsense and are forbidden to be spread outside. Even if more than 500 people tell me, I will not admit it. This is just to save Wu Xie, who is on the verge of a mental breakdown!"

Wu Xie stopped thinking about it and turned around to follow everyone into the right side hall.

According to Feng Shui, there should be a rectangular hole in the center of the right side hall, filled with yellow soil, called the "Golden Well". It makes no sense, so how could this be a big pool?

"That's why they say you southerners are half-baked, following others and calling the earth pit a golden well, but you've never even seen the real owner."

The fat guy's morale was boosted immediately, and he took the opportunity to show off. Wu Xie rolled his eyes and said, "Just tell me if you know it, Shao Bai is taking advantage of you."

"I will broaden your horizons." The fat man patted his belly and said, "In the Feng Shui Yin cave, a golden well is dug in the place of the treasure eye to condense the vitality in the earth veins. Water represents life, so the golden well with life-giving water is precious."

"It is truly living water, which can remove all poisons and diseases, and has the miraculous effect of bringing the dead back to life. In the more ancient tombs, there was even a golden well before the tomb, and the living water was wrapped in agate, which is so moisturizing."

"Is what you said true?" Wuxie suspected that the fat man was not making it up.

"Famous mountains and great rivers, where dragons spit out celestial juice, and harmonious energy meet, chalcedony is produced. Eating it can make one immortal." Zhang Qiling began, throwing out the proposition of eternal life to everyone.

Wu Xie was stunned for a while, and suddenly remembered what his uncle said, that the blind man was also in this underwater tomb 20 years ago. Could it be true?

Then... then wouldn't it be...

"Hey! Hey...you don't..." The fat man quickly grabbed Wuxie who ran to the water's edge, "You don't really want to drink it, do you?"

"I just want to smell it." Wu Xie rolled his eyes. Who would be so stupid? "You know what, this water smells really refreshing. It's not sea water."

Zhang Qiling: …

"This is Wang Zanghai's bath water."

Wu Xie quickly threw the water in his hand back and said, "Damn it, you guys are talking for so long over a basin of bath water! And what's with the saying "water from a golden well comes out of water"? Are you perverted?"

He felt dirty, and for a moment, he really had the urge to take a sip, but now he regrets it.

"We said Golden Well, but we didn't say this is the Golden Well. Besides, have you ever seen anything valuable that can fill up a pit?"

The fat man teased Wuxie cheerfully.

"That's true. I thought I could make a small profit. If it's sold in cans, it will definitely be more expensive than Evian."

Tu Dian laughed out loud, "Wu Xie, you should never do business in your life. The Wu family won't be enough for you to pay back."

"Humph!" Wu Xie glared at Tu Dian. "I haven't made peace with you yet!"

As he said this, to express his anger, he stomped his feet hard, just like he did when he was a child. There was a loud rumbling sound, and as if a mechanism was activated, the water at the bottom of the pool dropped rapidly, revealing a circular platform with a diameter of ten meters, with a huge stone tablet in the middle.

Zhang Qiling took the lead and walked down the stone steps, and the fat man followed him excitedly.

Xiaohua remained silent and looked solemn. Wuxie glanced at her twice, but still couldn't resist the emotion in his heart.

"Xiaohua, what's wrong with you?"

Xie Yuchen looked at Wuxie deeply, with an indescribable emotion in his eyes. He was stunned looking at him, and then he heard Xiaohua speak.

"I was thinking about your grandfather..."

"No way!" Wu Xie was shocked. "You believe such outrageous words? Sister Hua, have you watched any melodramatic drama recently?"

Xie Yuchen remained silent. The fat man suddenly turned around, stretched his neck and shouted, "Wuxie, don't forget your script. Everything you want to know is in the plot!"

"Fuck! By the way, I'm Qi Yu, where's Nezha!" Wuxie suddenly felt like he had forgotten something.

"No!" He slapped his thigh, "Don't I have a third uncle?"

"Where's my third uncle! Where's my dear third uncle!"
