Tomb Raider【Filling My Heart with Unresolved Feelings】

Hei Xiazi walked up to Fatty Wang and patted him on the shoulder: "Fat Uncle, you did a good job today."

"That's right. Don't you see who I am?" Fatty Wang said proudly, but there was still a hint of fatigue in his voice.

Bai Mumu chirped in Xie Yuchen's arms, seeming to be proud of her own contribution.

Xie Yuchen smiled and patted its head: "Today is all thanks to Mu Mu. If it weren't for you, we don't know how much effort it would take to get rid of these spiders."

After resting for a while, the few of them were about to get up and see if they could find any useful clues.

At this moment, the young man and Hei Xiazi, with their excellent hearing, caught a slight sound of footsteps.

Hei Xia Zi quickly made a gesture to the others, and everyone immediately understood what he meant, knowing that the person behind the scenes had appeared.

Fatty Wang reacted very quickly. He was the first to lie down on the ground, pretending to be unconscious. The others quickly followed suit.

Bai Mumu cleverly hid behind a big tree.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer. Everyone held their breath, quietly waiting for the person behind the scenes to show up.

Not long after, an old man dressed in Miao costume came out stealthily from behind the woods.

As soon as he showed up, he couldn't help but flash a trace of shock when he saw the spider corpses all over the ground. After all, he had spent a lot of effort to lead these people here, and wanted to use the holy spider to get rid of them, but he didn't expect these people to be so powerful. However, when he saw that everyone seemed to have fallen, he thought his goal had been achieved.

When the Miao old man approached the crowd, he muttered something.

The young man quietly opened his eyes and observed the old man's every move calmly.

The old man took out a small cloth bag from his waist, then took out some powdery substance from it and sprinkled it towards everyone.

Wu Xie was shocked and secretly worried whether the powder would be dangerous, but he did not dare to act rashly under the circumstances.

Fortunately, the powder was only used to detect whether someone was really unconscious. It did not cause any adverse reactions after being sprinkled on everyone. Seeing that no one reacted, the old man smiled smugly and said to himself, "No matter how powerful you are, you are still no match for the Saint Spider and me. Don't blame me. If you want to blame someone, you should just blame yourself for coming here."

Just when the old man turned around and wanted to leave, Hei Xia Zi suddenly jumped up from the ground, rushed to the old man in one step, and put the dagger in his hand on the old man's neck.

The old man was so frightened by this sudden change that he trembled all over, his eyes widened, and he said in horror: "You...you were poisoned by the Holy Spider, weren't you?"

Hei Xiazi sneered: "Do you think we are so easy to be tricked? Old man, you should tell the truth, why did you want to harm us?"

At this time, the rest of the people also stood up and surrounded the old man.

Fatty Wang rubbed his stomach and muttered, "It's really hard to pretend to be unconscious. I almost fell asleep."

The old man realized that he had been discovered. A trace of determination flashed in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down and said stubbornly: "I don't understand what you are talking about. I just passed by and saw someone lying here, so I came to take a look."

Hei Xiazi used a little force with the dagger in his hand, leaving a shallow blood mark on the old man's neck, and said in a low voice: "Old man, you are still stubborn at this time? We all saw how triumphant you were just now. Do you think we will believe your lies?"

Wu Xie took a step forward, his eyes fixed on the old man, and said slowly: "Father Panma, now that things have come to this, there is no point in pretending to be crazy and stupid. I think we should sit down and have a good talk."

Old Man Panma looked at the group of people around him and realized that he had no other choice. He sighed helplessly, stopped resisting, and followed everyone back to the yard.

When Panma's son saw his father safe and sound, he was overjoyed. He wanted to come over and ask about the situation, but was sent away by Panma's father.

Old Man Panma led everyone into the house, which was filled with a faint smell of smoke.

He motioned for everyone to sit down, and he sat on a worn wooden chair. He glanced at everyone calmly, and finally pointed the pipe in his hand at Zhang Qiling and said, "I can tell all of you about what happened back then, but not him."

Everyone looked at the young man with some confusion. The young man stood there expressionless, as if Panma's father's words had no effect on him.

Wu Xie asked, "Dad, why can't my brother listen? Is there any special reason?"

Panma said, "I am doing this for your own good. You'd better stay away from him, or he will kill you sooner or later."

When Fatty Wang heard this, he immediately flew into a rage and cursed, "How can you talk like that, old man? The young man has always lived and died with us, and we saved each other's lives. What right do you have to say that about him?"

Bai Mumu was so angry that she was screaming, as if she wanted to pounce on the old man and tear his mouth to pieces. "This damn old man actually dared to say that about her little brother. I'll tear him apart."

Hei Xiazi quickly hugged the irritable little guy and comforted him: "Little ancestor, don't be angry, don't be angry, he is still useful now."

But Bai Mumu didn't listen at all. He bit Hei Xiazi's hand, and when Hei Xiazi loosened his hand slightly due to pain, he broke free from his arms and pounced towards Panma Dad.

However, just as she jumped into the air, the young man reached out and stopped her. He directly hugged her in his arms and gently touched her back soothingly.

Xie Yuchen also frowned and said unhappily: "Father Panma, since you dare to say that, then you might as well make your words clear. We have been through so many things together with my brother, and you can't sow discord with just a few words."

Panma took a deep puff of cigarette, slowly exhaled smoke rings, and said with a hint of mystery in his eyes: "You don't know his life experience at all. What he carries is beyond your imagination. He is like an ominous person. Wherever he goes, disaster will befall him."

The young man remained silent, but there seemed to be a subtle emotional fluctuation in his eyes.
