Ghostly Eyes [Tomb Raiders]

Chapter 15 Divorce[edit]

"This is the Buddha's burial tomb, and the Demon Suppressing Pond suppressed by the Buddha's burial place. It is definitely not alarmist. Once trespassing, there is only death and no life. The three of us have broken into here by mistake now. We have committed the biggest death taboo. We will definitely die. No...no one can escape."

"Ridiculous!" Huang Dui retorted sharply immediately, but his words no longer had the previous confidence, "In this way, I can't stay in this ghost place for a long time, and return my Buddha jade to me, this is the last Ultimatum, I will not show mercy in the future!"

After that, he moved his hand and took out a black pistol.

"Wait a minute!"

Li Qiu suddenly stepped in front of Ms. Wei, and the surrounding darkness trembled, as if everyone was shocked by his shout.

"Wait a minute, Captain Huang, calm down, I think of it, you just asked me who to trust, now I think of the answer!"

Captain Huang was unmoved, apparently the loss he suffered at the hands of Ms. Wei made him afraid to be careless again.

Li Qiu tried his best to ignore the dark gun barrel in front of him and sort out his thoughts clearly. "Believe you, Ms. Wei, there is another possibility—maybe there is no ghost among us, no one lies, and the three of us are victims."

"Bullshit!"

"It's true, I have never told you that when I was attacked, I also fell down with the attacker, unless it was the same person who attacked you and me, at least five people who appeared in the pothole later were right. Although Ms. Wei knows a little bit of boxing, it is obviously impossible for her to climb out of such a high pothole twice and attack us two big men one after another."

Li Qiu looked at the two of them back and forth, "Think about why we are fighting among ourselves now - because we all firmly believe that the assailant also fell into the pothole together, so we fell into mutual suspicion. Captain Huang suspected Ms. Wei, Ms. Wei warned Captain Huang, and I don't know which one of you to trust. If this continues, we will fall into cannibalism sooner or later. Now, I want to ask you two questions-do you think that those who attacked us from outside Savage, is there wisdom?"

"Of course they are! They're almost as cunning as people!"

Ms. Wei also agreed, "Indeed, they can even imitate our movements and voices. The first time I fell, it was because that thing imitated my husband's voice and called me."

Li Qiu took a deep breath and pointed out the key point, "Then do you think——this kind of savage understands 'divorce'?"

As soon as the word "divorce" was uttered, there was a deathly silence around the pool, and Team Huang's complexion turned gray at a speed visible to the naked eye. "You, what do you mean? You mean that when we were attacked, the savages deliberately followed us, in order to make us jealous of each other!?"

"This is really unbelievable, it's no less than human intelligence..." Ms. Wei frowned her delicate eyebrows, "But if it's those savages, it's not a problem to climb out of the high potholes, and the contradiction in the number of people is not a problem at all." That makes sense."

"I once met a savage in a tent in the camp, and it even wore a human suit. Their intelligence may be much higher than we imagined. If there is another 'teacher' to teach them specific Human behavior is so easy to imitate us."

After a pause, Li Qiu said in as gentle a voice as possible: "In the current situation, the three of us must try to trust each other, otherwise it will be difficult to guarantee that such a thing will not happen again. When we meet other people, everything will be It's all clear."

"No!" Huang Dui suddenly raised his head, put down half of the muzzle of the gun and raised it again, "It doesn't matter who made the sneak attack, but my Buddha jade was thrown in the tomb, there is no mistake! It's just the three of us, or it's this woman—" This time, the dark gun pointed at Li Qiu, who was close at hand, "or, it's you!"

At the critical moment, a familiar and cold voice appeared behind Team Yellow.

"You should ask these monkeys about this kind of thing."

Huang Dui was startled and immediately turned around, and saw two fierce "figures" rushing towards him, one from the left and the other from the right.The shadow was too fast and agile, before the yellow team could press the trigger, the sharp fangs bit through the back of his hand, and the pistol fell into the pool with blood and screams.

Ms. Wei took two steps back, "It's those savages outside! They're coming in!"

It's a savage, and one, two, three, three savages.Li Qiu looked at these savages who came out together in astonishment. Among the three savages, one was wearing a suit, which was the one he met in the tent, and the other was bald and hairless, like a plucked orangutan. , should be the culprit who attacked them at the entrance of the cave.

At the same time, a person appeared behind Li Qiu, stretched out his hands, and hugged Li Qiu whose calves were soaked in the pool.

Li Qiu's mouth opened and closed, and he didn't know whether he was nervous or surprised: "Ah... Ah Jiu!"

The person who appeared with the savages at the critical moment was Ah Jiu who was supposed to be outside.

Ah Jiu scanned his body to make sure that he was not injured, and then smiled: "At that time, I asked you to find a place to hide, but you hid so deep that I almost couldn't find you."

"Why... why did you come here too? No, how did you come in, such a deep tomb passage! And what's going on with these savages!"

Ah Jiu pointed at the savages who were fighting with Team Huang, without paying any attention: "They brought me here. The eyes and ears of wild beasts are much better than humans. It was thanks to their sense of smell that I was able to find this place."

"You came with them, so they didn't attack you?"

Ah Jiu smiled noncommittally, but didn't answer.On the other side, Ms. Wei ran away as soon as she was attacked and disappeared into the depths of the tomb, but the yellow team was not so lucky. They were bitten by two savages with injuries all over their bodies, and their guns fell into the pool and disappeared. up.

From the beginning to the end, not a single savage came to attack Li Qiu and Ah Jiu.Li Qiu didn't think that his luck was so good, Ah Jiu must have done something, so he tugged on the latter's sleeve uneasily.Ah Jiu smiled evilly, tilted his head to look at Li Qiu, "I remember you said more than once, before I lost my memory, my personality was very bad, right?"

Li Qiu didn't know what he meant by asking this, so he nodded honestly.

"I admit now that what you said is right, I do prefer to be a bad guy."

Ah Jiu quietly looked at the yellow team on the ground, and waited until the yellow team was struggling more and more powerless, then walked over.As soon as he passed by, the two savages immediately separated in shock, fled into the tomb and disappeared.It's a pity that the yellow team was lying on the ground dying at this time, and didn't witness this bizarre scene.

Li Qiu was so surprised that he couldn't speak, and at the same time a bold guess was formed in his mind - Ah Jiu could not tame these ferocious savages... right?

But how did he do it!Although beasts have the instinct of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, and the law of the jungle, under certain circumstances, they will bow their heads to those stronger than themselves.But these savages are not only terrifyingly strong, but also have extremely high IQs, and at one time they made a fool of them.It is not easy to make these monsters surrender.

Ah Jiu smiled confidently and viciously, and Li Qiu suddenly had a hallucination for a moment, as if standing in front of him at this moment was not the cohabitant Ah Jiu who had lost his memory and was lazy these days, but the invincible and invincible in the fight "Ghost Eye" Tong Jiu.

That Tong Jiu who made him hate and love, but didn't know how to deal with it.

Ah Jiu leisurely squatted in front of the yellow team, and said calmly: "Early before the savages attacked the camp, I saw you sneaking here alone in the dark, making such a big circle. Guess the riddle, you have tried so hard to trick everyone into this tomb, can you tell me the reason now?"

Huang Dui muttered twice indistinctly, and Li Qiu walked closer to hear what he was muttering hoarsely.

"Buddha jade... Buddha jade... my Buddha jade...!" Huang Dui suddenly raised his bloody face.Because of the fear of Ah Jiu's deterrence, the savages didn't attack Huang Dui heavily, but Huang Dui's face full of scratches still made people's hearts tremble.

"Whoever it is, return the Buddha Jade to me...or all of us will die in this tomb!"

Ah Jiu smiled coldly, "Give it back to you, is that Buddhist jade really yours?"

Huang Dui shrank his pupils, but he was not looking at Ah Jiu, but Li Qiu who was at a loss behind Ah Jiu.Ah Jiu said clearly: "It seems that you already knew who the owner of the Buddha jade is, and you deliberately took it out in front of us when you were in the camp, was it to test Li Qiu?"

Captain Huang's lips twitched, but he didn't say anything in the end.Ah Jiu no longer cared about him, and pulled Li Qiu, "Let's go, find your Buddha jade early, and then leave here." Li Qiu firmly held Ah Jiu's palm, no matter whether Ah Jiu lost his memory or not, as long as In the unknown and mysterious tomb fight, he absolutely obeyed all orders of this cohabitant.

"Stop!" Huang Dui stood up tremblingly, staring at Ah Jiu, "I know, I know...you all doubt me now, no matter what I say, you won't believe it, but at least I didn't Lie—give me the Buddha Jade, or before dawn, all of us will die!"

Ah Jiu looked down at the time, "There are still five hours before dawn, if what you said is true, then we should find other people as soon as possible and inform them of the bad news, such as the one who was still here just now That woman."

As soon as he said this, Captain Huang realized that Ms. Wei had long since disappeared, so he rushed into the darkness with a roar.

"So energetic, were you pretending to be weak and dead when you were talking to me just now?" Ah Jiu shook her head helplessly.

Li Qiu was a little puzzled, "Why does Captain Huang always suspect Ms. Wei? Even though I'm here, he never seems to suspect that I took the Buddha jade."

"Because in the whole thing about Buddha jade, you are just a 'victim' involved, not the leader of the incident. I feel that he is not so much targeting the woman as he is targeting the The woman's last name."

"You mean...Wei?"

Ah Jiu pondered for a while, then shook his head with a wry smile, "I just vaguely feel a little familiar, as if I have met somewhere before, the surname Wei, the Wei family, the Chen family, there should be something..."

"There is still Shang, is the Shang family right?"

Ah Jiu couldn't help but suddenly said, "Yes, that's right, it's the Shang family, how did you know?"

Li Qiu finally showed a smile, "Of course I know. The three families you mentioned, Shang Wei and Chen, are the three most powerful families in the domestic antique industry. I often see them appearing in newspapers and auctioning out sky-high prices for antiques every now and then. Wait, I seem to be able to understand it when you say it this way, tomb robbery, antiques, treasure appraisal... Ms. Wei and her husband, the Wei family!"
