The whole empire is watching my live broadcast of Tomb Raiding [Interstellar]

The water droplets on Du Leding's hair fell on the ground, making a "click" sound, and in the empty and silent darkness, there was a strange echo.

He got up slowly, as if he was afraid of disturbing the two people on the ground, he took two steps back slowly, and snapped his fingers quickly.

Once, twice... Finally, with a crisp sound, a ball of light rose into the sky from the darkness like a bright moon.

Du Leding pursed his lips tightly, stretched out his hand to illuminate the person lying on the ground.Under the light cluster was a face covered with purple and black veins, a pair of eyes wide open, like a person whose dream had been disturbed, his face was full of astonishment and grief.

The man looked quite dead.If it was a different person, thinking that he was groping around the corpse just now, and now he suddenly saw the corpse with such a hideous and terrifying expression, he might jump up and hit his head like a monkey tied up under his feet.

But Du Le Ding had seen too many corpses, and even though he felt terrified, he didn't lose his footing.

He moved his arm and turned to the other side. When he saw Su Teng's bloodless face, he rushed up and hugged him aside.

He was about to put Su Teng back on the ground when the person in his arms suddenly groaned.He withdrew his hand holding Su Teng's back, and his palm was full of blood diluted with water.

Du Leding carefully turned Su Teng over, and his eyes were stung by the shocking wound on his back.

That time in Su Teng's bedroom, Du Leding touched the scar on his ribs and guessed that he might have some old injuries.But I didn't expect the scars on his back to be so scary, as if a firework had exploded from his spine, the radial scars covered his honey-colored skin, and the ends extended in all directions to the shoulders, ribs and waistline.

The giant's "sickle" fell from the middle of his back, splitting his back in two.A horrific look slipped across Du Leding's face, and the focus of his sight was so flustered that he didn't know where to fall.

It was a miracle that Su Teng was still alive after suffering such a serious injury. Normal people would have died on the spot.

Du Leding patted Su Teng's face: "Little Susu, what are you made of? Why are you so strong? Wake up quickly."

He bit his lip, forced himself to calm down, gently let Su Teng lie down, got up and looked around for possible exits by the light.

After walking around the wall and touching his head and feet again, Duledin was almost disheartened.He was now certain that they were trapped in the box, and there was a corpse in the box. It was not too much to say it was a coffin.

"Ding Ding..." Su Teng's hoarse and weak voice came from the darkness, and Du Le Ding immediately turned around and walked to Su Teng's side to check his situation.

Before Du Leding could speak, Su Teng said first, "How are you?"

Du Le Ding was stunned, and said helplessly, "You should take care of yourself. If the cut on your back is deeper, I will have to play 'jigsaw puzzle' right now."

Su Teng struggled to sit up, making an inhalation sound, which seemed to affect the wound on his back.Du Leding hurriedly supported him: "Can't you lie on your stomach obediently?"

The two sat facing each other, and Su Teng had no support behind him. He rested his chin on Du Leding's shoulder weakly, and said lightly, "I don't worry if I can't see you."

Du Leding was at a loss for words for a moment, but he didn't know how to respond.After being silent for a while, Du Leding said: "We are not alone at all, there is a 'companion' beside us."

Su Teng said "hmm": "Looking at the clothes, he is an ancient man thousands of years ago."

Du Leding turned his head to look at the corpse again, and found that most of his body was hidden from the light source, so he raised his hand to take a photo.The previous glance was careless, and some details were not found. Now that he looked at it again, Du Leding faintly felt that something was wrong.

The corpse was dressed in fine clothes, showing the status of being either rich or noble.His wide-open eyes reflected the emptiness and sadness of fate, and he seemed to be full of unwillingness and resentment towards his own death.

There seemed to be something stuffed in the mouth of the corpse, and the head was slightly protruding from the lips.Du Leding was naturally full of curiosity, but he knew that in ancient times there were some anti-theft methods, which were buried in the stomach of the corpse.

If the thing in the corpse's mouth is pulled out hastily, the corpse will most likely sit up under the influence of the mechanism, and spray some unstoppable hidden weapon or corpse poison from the mouth.

But since it is an ancient corpse, it must have been dead for thousands of years, but the corpse is neither rotten nor rotten.When Du Leding was groping in the dark before, he even felt that the corpse was very tense, as if he had just died not long ago, and this embalming method was too clever.

The cleverness makes people frightened.

He looked away from the corpse, touched Su Teng's arm, and found that his body was shaking slightly. He immediately realized that the situation was urgent and he couldn't afford to delay.

Although Su Teng has been very quiet and never complained of pain, Du Leding can imagine the pain he is enduring at this moment.

"Persist and see if you can make a hole in the box." Du Leding helped Su Teng up.

Su Teng touched the personal terminal, activated the mech, and fired a row of bullets towards the opposite side.

A scorching flame was emitted from the muzzle of the gun, and the bullet shot out with a "swish", but it seemed to be wrapped in a soft mass, and it disappeared without a trace.

Du Le Ding let go of Su Teng, and walked across in disbelief. There was not even a mark on the wooden board, and the bullets seemed to be absorbed by something without a trace.

Evil, this box is too evil, Du Leding's heart sank, faintly giving birth to a bit of despair.

When he turned around to face Su Teng, there was another calm smile on his face, and he spread his hands and said, "It seems that you will die with me."

Su Teng's physical condition is already unbearable to bear the load of being connected to the mecha.He disarmed the mecha, his eyes were indifferent, and he didn't seem to mind that there were such poor and noisy companions on Huangquan Road.He looked at Du Leding carefully, and said in a deep voice: "That's fine, life is not the same quilt and death is the same acupuncture point."

Du Leding suspected that he had heard it wrong, and almost blurted out "What did you say".When the words came to his lips, he swallowed them abruptly.

He could hear Su Teng's words clearly, but he couldn't agree with them.Even if Su Teng risked his life to save him, he didn't think there was such a deep and righteous relationship between the two of them.

These words were chewed by Du Leding over and over again, and every time he thought about it, he tasted a little more profound meaning.He pinched his fingertips, recovered from the stinging pain, and changed the subject: "There are 'double pupils' on the inner wall of this box. It can be seen that the wood used to make the box should be that kind of 'eye wood'."

"However," Du Le Ding saw that Su Teng's face was getting worse and worse, and hurried back to him, let him lean on his shoulder, and said softly, "But this 'coffin box' is different from the small ones we saw before. The box is made of different materials."

The "eye tree" has a sacred status in the murals. As a sacred tree, how could the ancestors who worshiped it cut it down and used it as a box?I am afraid that some other people found this kind of tree and imitated the method of those "cavemen" to make this sealed coffin.

Su Teng closed his eyes, and buried half of his face in the socket of Duleding's shoulder. Although his body was dripping wet and it was not comfortable to stick his skin on it, Su Teng felt very warm and at ease.

He touched Du Leding's hand and said in a low voice, "There is also the unicorn in the stone palace."

The image of Qilin, which has a distinct Han style, is obviously not in the same style as the ancestors who used the three-snake vortex picture as their totem.It is very likely that a country in the Central Plains invaded the territory of the crypt dwellers, cut down their sacred tree, and made this coffin-like box.

If the person who designed and built the stone hall was the designer of the ancient tomb of Wushan, then this country in the Central Plains may be the "Zhaoguo" mentioned in the epitaph of Princess Wushan.

And they also engraved the totem belonging to the crypt dwellers on the metal block in Princess Wushan's coffin.

Du Leding thought for a long time, perhaps the metal block itself belonged to the crypt dwellers, and it was not impossible that it was snatched by Zhao Guo.

"If this is a special coffin," Du Leding wondered, "is it specially made for the corpse next to it?"

After waiting for a long time, Su Teng did not make a sound.Du Leding panicked, and quickly helped Su Teng up. His thick and long eyelashes were tightly attached to his lower eyelids, and he lost his vigor and vitality.

"Su Teng, don't scare me, one corpse here is enough." Du Leding hurriedly laid Su Teng on the ground, checking his breath and pulse frantically.

These two signals that symbolize life are very slight, and Du Leding's fingertips were trembling, and he patted Su Teng's face and called: "Su Teng, little Susu, you must not fall asleep at this time, do you hear me?"

At this moment, he heard a sigh in his ears like a broken soul.For the first time, he thought it was Su Teng who had woken up, and the corners of his mouth opened unconsciously, but in the next second, he realized that the voice was a little far away from him.

Fuck - Du Le Ding's heart exploded, and he raised his hand to take a picture of the corpse not far away.

The strange expression of the ancient corpse added a bit of weirdness amid the swaying light and shadow, and those wide-open eyes seemed to be watching the other two uninvited guests.

Du Leding stared at him for a long time, touched Su Teng's chest again and said, "Xiao Tengteng, if you don't get up, he will get up."

As he spoke, he strangled Su Teng's people, abruptly waking them up from a coma.

Su Teng blinked: "I thought you would give me artificial respiration."

Du Le Ding heaved a sigh of relief, sat down on the ground, and was about to sneer habitually, when he suddenly remembered the underwater scene.Although Su Teng was just calming him down at the time, after all, the two mouths were tightly pressed together, which was an unprecedented experience for him.

Looking back now, Su Teng's lips were cold and soft, and the moment he pressed them on, he was domineering and gentle.

That scene made Du Le Ding's heart feel calm, causing waves, and a strange feeling emerged from the water, ready to move in the darkness.

It felt very uncomfortable, as if someone was beating gongs and drums in his heart, and the loud noise shook his internal organs, disturbing his mind.

He tried his best to bring his attention back to reality, and while paying attention to the movement of the corpse, he said, "I suspect that this person may be a 'Zhaoguo person'."

Although the material of this box is the same as the box containing the black fan and ghost fetus, the box has patterns on the outside, with pairs of "eyes" watching the intruders from outside; while the coffin box in front of me has patterns on the inside, as if staring at the intruders. Watching the changes in that corpse over the years.

The thousand-year-old corpse does not rot or rot, and it may even be related to this box.

According to his previous speculation, this box was built after Zhaoguo invaded the territory of the crypt dwellers, and the purpose was to collect the corpse.It took so much effort to make a coffin for this, which shows that this person's status is very important.

However, there were no burial objects beside the corpse. This desolate scene was in stark contrast to the brocade clothes he was wearing, and made him miserable even more.

If it is really as Du Leding thinks, the thing in the mouth of the corpse is likely to be a clue related to Zhaoguo. If it can be taken out, maybe something will be found.

But after thinking about it, they were trapped here and couldn't get out. Even if they knew the ins and outs of Zhaoguo, they would just know something about it.

Following Du Le Ding's sigh, Su Teng said, "Have you thought about what state we are in right now?"

His breathing became weaker and weaker, and he had to stop to catch his breath every few words.Du Leding felt uncomfortable when he heard that, and hugged him unconsciously.

He was still so young, and he still had such a long way to go in life. He had a bright future, and it would be a pity if he died like this.

The so-called heaven is jealous of talents is probably like this.But Du Leding felt that he was not a talent at all, at most he was handsome, God would not be jealous and wanted him to die again and be buried with President Su.

"A state where there is nothing to love?" Du Leding joked with a wry smile.

"I do have a crush..." Su Teng paused, "Do you still remember the memories of the search and rescue team?"

Of course Du Leding remembered that after hearing what Su Teng said, he suddenly thought of their current situation, which was very similar to the experience described by the search and rescue team.

Su Teng said slowly and with difficulty: "This box is like a special barrier, separating the real from the unreal. Only by breaking the boundary between real and virtual can the transformation from inside to outside be completed."

Du Leding listened and thought about it, and gradually understood what Su Teng meant. This special box separated the "real" from the "virtual". The inside of the box is "virtual"; when they are in the box, the inside is "real" and the outside is "virtual".

Everything is relative to the box.If the "real" is regarded as alive, and the "virtual" is regarded as death, then their current state is already dead to the people outside the box.

But to themselves, they are alive, equivalent to a state that is neither alive nor dead.

"That is to say," Du Le Ding said blankly, "unless we die inside the box, we are alive outside?"

Su Teng poked Du Leding's chin on the shoulder socket, and he was so obedient that his heart softened.Du Leding pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "Then how did we two die? Did you shoot me to death, or did you hit the wall together? Or bite your tongue and kill yourself?"

The bullet seems to have lost its power in this space, and it is very likely that it will be swallowed by the "void" the moment it is fired.And they didn't have grenades, and Su Teng's bombs were all used up in various situations encountered along the way.He raised his head to look at Du Leding and said, "Otherwise, bite your tongue and kill yourself."

After a pause, he added: "biting each other's tongues to kill each other."

Du Leding looked into Su Teng's eyes, and he couldn't explain why, but his face suddenly caught fire, burning off a layer of his thick skin, making him feel like a grass seed without its shell, as fragile as the wind .

He searched desperately in his mind, trying to find something that could divert his attention, and suddenly remembered something.

He suspected that there was water in his head, otherwise, how could he only realize that something was wrong with Su Teng now.

Before he pressed the light source on the ground, the corpse next to him was hidden in the darkness. How did Su Teng accurately describe the clothing of the corpse?

As Duleding raised this question, the air in the coffin box seemed to freeze, and the atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

Su Teng stared at Du Leding for a while, then raised his hand and poked his finger on the eye.

Du Leding gasped, thinking that the "ghost" was about to reveal itself, and he poked his eyes to create a bloody appearance.

But Su Teng just took off the contact lenses.Du Le Ding's eyes moved from the transparent sheet at his fingertips to his face, and the cold air sucked into his body immediately blocked his throat.

It's not that he didn't suspect that there was something wrong with Su Teng's eyes before, and he always thought that he might be wearing contact lenses, but he never thought about what was behind the flakes.

At first glance, Su Teng's eyes are no different from ordinary people, but upon closer inspection, there is a circle around his pupils, which is exactly the same as the snake's eyes in the rock paintings, the newborn baby.

No wonder he said the word "double pupil" when he saw "eye tree". It turns out that he himself has such a peculiar pair of pupils.

Su Teng also took off the other contact lens, both eyes have the same double pupil.His own pupil color is relatively light, reflecting layers of brilliance under the light cluster in Du Leding's hand like glass, so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it.

Du Leding couldn't help raising his hand, and his thumb slid across Su Teng's eyelids, almost thinking it was some black technology.Although he had heard of "double pupils", he had never seen such peculiar eyes. Now that he suddenly saw them, he felt unbelievable.

In particular, these eyes are so against the sky that they can see everything clearly through the obstacles of darkness in an environment without light.

Duleding's Adam's apple twitched, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.But Su Teng grabbed his hand, rubbed it on his lips, and said softly, "I'll tell you about these eyes when I get out of here."

The itchy, soft and cool touch of Du Leding's fingertips reminded him uncontrollably of the taste of Su Teng's lips.He withdrew his hand in embarrassment and said, "The premise is that you can really get out from here."

He controlled his expression, but couldn't control his mood.There was a lump in his heart, he couldn't get up and down, and the soreness made him want to yell.

But I heard Su Teng say: "Try it, I have a self-destruct program."

Du Leding suspects that Su Teng's consciousness is no longer clear. He may want to say that "the mecha has a self-destruct program."

But he saw that Su Teng's body suddenly lit up, and from under his bloodless skin, golden light leaked out, and quickly connected into one piece.

His blood seemed to have turned dark gold, and the bright light penetrated his skin. Du Le Ding could clearly see the dark golden light flowing like a river spreading in his body.

He was so shocked that his mind went blank, until the dark golden light flow gradually engulfed Su Teng, and the light shrank suddenly, turning into a dark black mech covering his body.

Du Leding had seen more than a dozen mechas of different models in Su Teng's underground workshop before, but the shape of this one in front of him was definitely superior to any one.If it weren't for Su Teng's shortness of breath and he was on the verge of falling, Du Leding really wanted to praise "Handsome cracks the sky".

He touched the cold and hard mecha, supported Su Teng and said, "Boss Su, can I have an autograph?"

Su Teng's voice was hoarse: "It depends on where the sign is."

Du Leding could hear his forbearance from his trembling voice, presumably there was a trembling body wrapped under this cool mech.He couldn't help but asked: "Isn't your original mech not good enough?"

Su Teng inhaled: "The electromagnetic pulse has affected the system."

He supported himself entirely by willpower, speaking as briefly as possible to preserve his strength.

Duledin frowned, considering the possibility of them leaving alive.No one knows how much of the memories of the search and rescue team is his real experience and how much is his hallucination in the dark.

If the search and rescue team's memory of the self-explosion period is wrong, or Su Teng's judgment about the box is wrong, they will be wiped out together with the thousand-year-old corpse next to them. This is a life gamble.

But if they don't try, they will die sooner or later if they are trapped in this kind of place.Especially Su Teng's situation seems to be getting worse and worse. If this continues, I'm afraid it won't last long.

Du Leding often makes some reckless decisions, and Shen Yu's evaluation of him is "crazy".Right now, he didn't think about it for too long, and quickly made up his mind, and said to Su Teng: "Let's do it this way, we can count as having a companion if we die together."

A shallow smile appeared on Su Teng's pale face: "Is this considered martyrdom?"

Du Leding said "hehe" twice: "I hope not, I still really want to see the sun tomorrow."

"If you don't see it," Su Teng stretched his arms around Du Leding, and started the countdown to the self-destruct procedure at the same time, "then it's a death for love."

With relentless urging, the mechanical voice of the system spit out a countdown countdown one after another——

...7

The outer shell of the mecha was cold, and Du Leding's face was sticking to it, but it was hot and painful.

There were only a handful of people who treated him tenderly in the previous life, and he only reaped a brotherhood that died of hatred.In the end, he died unexpectedly, and he set foot on Huangquan Road alone, which felt very bad.

In this life, I met a person who would not even die for him, and was even willing to die with him.If you say you are not moved, it is really against your will.

...4

"Ding Ding," Su Teng said suddenly in the silence, hesitant to speak, as if he had a thousand words to say, and he didn't know where to start.

Du Leding didn't know what he was going to say, but he vaguely guessed what he was going to say, his heart was beating violently, as if a tornado was rising from the ground, not only did not leave a blade of grass, but it was stained with Soft turquoise.

His lips moved, not knowing whether to encourage Su Teng to continue or stop him from speaking.

...2

Just as Su Teng spoke again, another faint sigh suddenly came from under their feet, interrupting the final confession of the "martyr of love".

Du Le Ding suddenly thought of the corpse with them—is the corpse really a corpse in such a box that symbolizes "emptiness"?

If they really escaped from the dead by self-destructing their mechs and "lived" in the outside world, then will the unknown person beside them, along with them, escape from the void in the coffin box——
