Tomb Raider【Filling My Heart with Unresolved Feelings】

"You're lying." The young man's voice was cold and his eyes were scrutinizing.

Bai Mumu also said indifferently: "The traps in this Zhang family's ancient building are intricate and complicated. You can't just rely on luck to avoid them." Fatty Wang immediately took out a rope and tied up the guy tightly, muttering as he tied him up: "Humph, with your small body, you still want to fool us? I am not that easy to fool."

The guy struggled and shouted, "Master Fatty, Master Zhang, I really didn't lie! You can't just leave me here!"

Bai Mumu squatted down and looked directly into the waiter's eyes. "You'd better tell me the truth. Who sent you here? What's your purpose?"

The guy's eyes were evasive, and he argued, "I was really lucky. I didn't know anything. I just wanted to survive. No one sent me here!"

Bai Mumu sneered, "Do you think we will believe it? In this Zhang family ancient building, there are deadly traps everywhere. Even we have to be careful. How can an ordinary guy like you walk here unscathed? Don't waste our time anymore, tell the truth!"

Beads of sweat rolled down the man's forehead, his lips trembled, and he seemed to be in a fierce ideological struggle. In the end, he bit his tongue to commit suicide, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and his body gradually went limp.

"Not good!" Bai Mumu exclaimed, but it was too late.

The young man quickly went forward to check and found that the guy was dead.

The young man said solemnly: "Dead."

Fatty Wang frowned. "This guy died so easily. He must be afraid of being punished more terribly after telling the truth. We have to be more careful."

The young man tore off the man's shirt and saw the familiar phoenix tattoo on his back.

"The Wang family's logo!" The young man's eyes narrowed, and his tone revealed a hint of severity.

Fatty Wang's eyes widened. "The Wang family? These guys are really haunting. Why are they everywhere?"

Bai Mumu frowned, "It seems that the Wang family is determined to get the Zhang family's ancient building. Their people have infiltrated us. I don't know how many traps are waiting for us."

The young man didn't say anything, but his eyes became colder. He moved the body of the man to the corner of the passage, trying not to affect their route of movement.

"Don't worry about it for now. We have to keep going. The roar is getting closer and closer." After the young man said this, he continued to move forward along the passage.

Fatty Wang and Bai Mumu followed closely behind. They both knew that the situation was becoming increasingly critical.

After walking for a while, Fatty Wang realized that the young man didn't seem to be walking out of the building, and couldn't help but be curious: "Young man, aren't we looking for the exit? Why does this direction feel like it's going deeper into the ancient building?"

The young man kept walking and replied calmly: "The mechanism here has been triggered. The exit may have changed. We can only go up."

Bai Mumu was shocked. "Go up? Brother, are you sure? The structure of this ancient building is so complicated. Will it be more dangerous to go up?"

The young man nodded slightly. "Go up, maybe we can find the control mechanism, or we can find clues to a new exit."

Fatty Wang scratched his head and said, "Okay, since you said so, let's go upstairs. I will fight this ancient building to the death today."

They continued along the passage, which became steeper, like a slope leading to an unknown place. From time to time, rubble fell from the walls, adding to the danger.

The passage became narrower and narrower, and the stale and decayed smell became stronger and stronger, almost nauseating. Fatty Wang covered his nose and muttered, "This smell is terrible. If I can get out alive, I have to take a good bath."

Bai Mumu looked around vigilantly and said, "Everyone, be careful of the rubble above your heads. Don't let it hit you."

They climbed the slope with difficulty, and every step required a lot of effort to keep their bodies steady.

But at the moment, Wu Xie and Hei Xia Zi were not so optimistic. They had just escaped from the fog and strong alkali, and the scene of the Zhang family's arms filled with them made them shudder.

The neatly arranged arms filled with layers of iron racks made Wu Xie's scalp tingle.

Wu Xie frowned and used the flashlight to carefully look around. "These arms... must have some special meaning. Could they be some kind of warning or mechanism set up by the ancestors of the Zhang family?"

Hei Xia Zi patted the remaining powder on his body and said, "This is the family rule of the Zhang family. If a member of the Zhang family dies, either his body will be transported back to the Zhang family's ancient building, or his right arm will be cut off and brought back to the Zhang family, and his body will be burned."

After hearing what Hei Xia Zi said, Wu Xie felt a chill in his heart, "With so many arms, are all members of the Zhang family so cruel?"

Hei Xia Zi shrugged helplessly and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. The Zhang family is too special, especially since all the members have Qilin blood. There might be some people who use their bodies and blood to do some evil things. This has happened before, but it didn't end well in the end. This can be considered a way to protect family secrets."

Wu Xie nodded slightly, but his eyes still stayed on those arms. "Even so, this scene is still creepy."

Hei Xiazi looked around and said, "Let's go, they should be going up, we have to catch up quickly, the longer we stay here, the more dangerous it will be.

Wu Xie and Hei Xia Zi continued to move forward, and along the edge of the area where the arms were placed, they found a narrow upward passage. The walls of the passage were engraved with strange patterns, some of which looked like scenes of Zhang family sacrifices, and some of which looked like some mysterious creatures.

“These patterns seem to hide a lot of information.” Wu Xie shone a flashlight on them while observing them carefully.

Hei Xia Zi was exploring the way ahead. "Don't worry about these things for now. We'll have plenty of time to study them once we get out. Now we have to find the little brother and the others first."

They climbed up the passage, which became steeper and steeper, and in some places they almost had to use their hands and feet. Suddenly, Hei Xiazi stopped and Wu Xie almost bumped into him.

"What's wrong?" Wu Xie asked.

Hei Xia Zi pointed ahead, and saw that the passage was blocked by a huge stone slab. Through the cracks in the stone slab, they could see several corpses lying inside.

Both of them looked unhappy, because they recognized from the markings on their clothes that the bodies were the guys who followed the young man and Huo Xiangu down this time.

Hei Xiazi squatted down and checked the area around the stone slab. "This stone slab is very heavy. There should be a mechanism to control its rise and fall. Let's see if there are any clues."
