Tomb Raider【Filling My Heart with Unresolved Feelings】

However, just as they stood firm, a hairy monster suddenly jumped out from under the water wheel behind them. Wu Xie and the other two were startled by this sudden monster.

Wu Xie subconsciously took a step back, holding a dagger tightly in his hand, staring at the hairy monster nervously.

Xie Yuchen quickly adjusted his state and observed the monster's every move with sharp eyes.

The smile on Hei Xia Zi's mouth disappeared instantly, replaced by a serious look. He drew a dagger from his waist, ready to meet the monster's attack at any time.

The hairy monster pounced towards them with its fangs and claws bared, letting out a low roar.

Wu Xie dodged the monster's attack by moving sideways, and at the same time stabbed the monster with the dagger in his hand. However, the hairy monster was extremely fast and easily avoided Wu Xie's attack.

Xie Yuchen took the opportunity to go behind the monster and try to find its weakness.

Hei Xia Zi faced the monster head-on, wielding the dagger in his hand with great force, and engaged in a fierce fight with the monster.

"What kind of monster is this?" Wu Xie asked loudly while dodging the monster's attack.

Xie Yuchen frowned and said, "I don't know, but it looks like he's very difficult to deal with."

As Hei Xia Zi was dealing with the monster, he said, "No matter what it is, let's solve it first."

The three of them had a thrilling battle with the hairy monster in the passage. The monster was so powerful that every attack made them feel great pressure.

However, Wu Xie, Xie Yuchen and Hei Xia Zi are no ordinary people. Relying on their rich experience and tacit cooperation, they gradually found the monster's flaws.

After a fierce battle, the hairy monster was finally strangled to death by them.

The three of them sat on the ground exhausted, breathing heavily.

Wu Xie looked at the monster's corpse on the ground, his heart full of doubts: "Why is there such a monster in this place?"

Xie Yuchen thought for a moment and said, "Maybe there are more dangers here that we don't know about."

Black Bear smiled and said, "But we are not that easy to be defeated."

After resting for a while, the three stood up again.

At this moment, something strange happened and an extremely fast black shadow rushed towards Wu Xie.

Wu Xie had no time to dodge and subconsciously raised his hand to block. Then he felt a sharp pain and his consciousness gradually became blurred.

Countless fragments of images flooded into his mind, as if someone was forcibly instilling memories into him. His body slowly fell down.

Xie Yuchen was shocked when he saw this. He rushed forward and supported Wu Xie who was about to fall to the ground.

The black-haired snake was also cut into two pieces by the black blind man.

Xie Yuchen quickly took out the detoxification pill from the space and fed it to Wu Xie. Then he stood up and grabbed Hei Xia Zi by the collar and asked, "You could have stopped him just now, why did you do this?"

Hei Xia Zi was grabbed by the collar by Xie Yuchen, but he did not panic. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said slowly: "Hua Er Ye, don't get excited. It's not that I don't want to stop it, but the black shadow is too fast and I can't catch up. Besides, Wu Xie's current situation may be a blessing in disguise."

Xie Yuchen glared at Hei Xia Zi, "A blessing in disguise? That's easy for you to say! If anything happens to Wu Xie, I won't forgive you."

Hei Xiazi smiled helplessly, "Hua'er Ye, calm down first. Look, he's fine."

Xie Yuchen was not so easily fooled. He glared at Hei Xiazi fiercely and said, "You'd better give me a satisfactory explanation, otherwise..."

Hei Xiazi remained calm. He gently patted Xie Yuchen's hand that was grabbing his collar and asked nonchalantly, "What if it's not? I didn't mean it."

Xie Yuchen's eyes became colder and colder. He gritted his teeth and said, "Otherwise, you'll have to wait and explain to Mu Mu."

When Hei Xia Zi heard this, the relaxed look on his face instantly disappeared, replaced by a hint of nervousness. "Hua Er Ye, don't be so cruel. I'll tell you, I'll tell you."

Hei Xia Zi cleared his throat and said seriously, "It was the Third Master who told me to do this. Before he disappeared, the last job he told me was to let Wu Xie be bitten by this black-haired snake. He also told me that Wu Xie would not be killed by the snake's venom. That's why I took this job. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to do it!"

As soon as Wu Xie woke up, he heard about his third uncle's behavior of betraying his nephew. He was so angry that he wanted to kill his own uncle for the sake of justice. What kind of hatred was this? Was he still his nephew?

Wu Xie struggled to sit up, his face flushed with anger. "What on earth is that old fox up to? He thinks I'm not dying fast enough, right?"

Xie Yuchen frowned, thinking. "The Third Master must have his reasons for doing this. But why didn't he tell us in advance?"

Hei Xia Zi shrugged. "Third Master has always been mysterious in his actions. Who knows what he is up to? But now that Wu Xie is fine, it means that Third Master's judgment was correct. Maybe a bite from this black-haired snake can really bring some unexpected gains."

Wu Xie glared at Hei Xia Zi in anger. "What a harvest! He almost lost his life. When I see him again, I will settle all the old and new grudges together."

The three of them were silent for a moment, and the atmosphere was somewhat solemn.

Then, Xie Yuchen broke the silence. "Now is not the time to be angry, we still have to move on, the little brother and the others are still waiting for us."

Wu Xie took a deep breath and tried to suppress the anger in his heart. "Okay, let's ignore that old fox for now. Let's see how to crack this second mechanism."

Hei Xia Zi also regained his relaxed demeanor. "Yes, let's put this matter aside for now. Maybe we'll get the answer someday."

They once again focused their attention on the second mechanism in front of them. This mechanism was more complicated and mysterious than the first one, with various complicated devices that made people dazzled.

Wu Xie, Xie Yuchen and Hei Xiazi carefully observed the mechanism, trying to find a way to crack it. Xie Yuchen took out a small notebook and pencil from his backpack and continued to sketch the mechanism, marking various details.

Wu Xie was recalling the fragments of the scene that appeared after being bitten by the black-haired snake. He always felt that this matter was not that simple, and what exactly did the string of numbers in his mind mean. Wu Xie, who had been thinking for a long time but still couldn't figure it out, decided to stop thinking about it and solve the mechanism first.

They once again focused their attention on the second mechanism in front of them.

Wu Xie stared at the various connection points of the chains, lost in thought, trying to search his memory for clues that might be related.

Xie Yuchen was concentrating on perfecting the sketch of the mechanism in the small notebook, and each line represented a possible way to crack it.

The black bear seemed to be looking around nonchalantly, but in fact he was secretly observing the surrounding environment to prevent any further accidents from happening.
