Tomb Raider: As a cannon fodder, I started to play badly

"You mean, that spirit back then?" Hei Xiazi asked with narrowed eyes. Although it was a question, he actually had the answer in his mind.

"Mr. Hei, could you please explain yourself clearly?" Fatty Wang directly said what Wuxie wanted to say.

Hei Xia Zi sighed, organized himself, and as he slowly narrated the story, the events of that year slowly unfolded before everyone's eyes.

"Are you really going?" Bai Ran lay on the bed with a pale face. His eyes were already unfocused and he looked very weak, as if he was going to leave this world in the next second. He asked Hei Xia Zi softly.

Hei Xiazi paused while peeling the apple, nodded, and stopped pretending to smile. Instead, he said seriously, "I can't help it. The head of the Huo family, Huo Xiangu, used that promise to get it. I can't refuse."

"Do you want to clear all ties with the Nine Sects after this?" Bai Ran tilted his head, as if looking at Hei Xia Zi. He immediately guessed what Hei Xia Zi was thinking.

Hei Xiazi nodded and said, "It was because of the mute and you that we got involved with the Nine Gates. We shouldn't have been involved with them in the first place! If it weren't for that kid from the Xie family, wouldn't you have nothing to do with the Nine Gates by now?"

Bai Ran sighed, coughed a few times, and emphasized again: "Xiao Qi, we really can't go down to this tomb!"

"Don't worry, don't worry! I'm a blind man with a lucky life. Everything will be fine!" Hei Xia Zi heard what Bai Ran said, but he really couldn't refuse. They could be even this time, but he didn't know when the next time would be!

Second, the kid from the Xie family will also go down. If he dies easily, Bai Ran will definitely be entangled with the Nine Gates again.

Even if it's for himself and Bai Ran, he must go!

Bai Ran felt helpless when he heard Hei Xia Zi's firm answer. He opened his mouth but did not continue to persuade him. Instead, he said, "Take care!" Then he turned his head, closed his eyes, and pretended to rest.

Hei Xia Zi also knew that Bai Ran was not feeling well both physically and mentally at the moment, but he had no choice.

Only if he breaks free from the constraints of the Nine Gates' agreement as soon as possible can he follow Bai Ran without any scruples, help him plan, and break the impasse.

Just as the apple was peeled, Bai Ran continued, "I'll let A Ling go with you! Tell me the time and place, and I'll go inform A Ling!"

This time, Hei Xia Zi did not remain silent. Instead, he nodded and said, "Okay! With the mute here, you can rest assured!"

Bai Ran really closed his eyes slowly this time and did not continue to speak. After a while, Hei Xiazi gently placed his hand in front of Bai Ran's nose, and only after feeling the flow of breath did he feel relieved.

When Hei Xia Zi arrived, the Huo family and the Xie family were both there ready to go, and Zhang Qilin was standing in the corner. If Xie Yuchen had not known Zhang Qilin through Bai Ran and came to stand with him, Zhang Qilin would have been in completely different worlds from the person who was resting quietly beside him.

When the black bear arrived, a group of people pressed the switch and began to adjust their positions, ready to set off.

Huo Xiangu, whose hair had already begun to turn white, came to Hei Xia Zi and greeted him with a smile, "Hei Ye, long time no see!"

"Master Huo, we are not very familiar with each other! After this is over, we will have no involvement, so there is no need to play tricks on me! As for Bai Ran, I suggest you don't have any ideas about him. Your Huo family can't afford it!" Hei Xiazi said warningly.
