Ghostly Eyes [Tomb Raiders]

"You hide Buddha jade? Why! Aren't you with Captain Huang!"

"Probably... I have the same purpose as you. I don't want to ask people in this team to open this Buddha coffin."

Li Qiu glanced at the tightly-sewn tomb door, and murmured: "But thanks to you, I can enter here smoothly. It is rumored that the dragon-slaying stone gate of the Buddha's burial tomb is made of special stone, which is indestructible and extremely hard. Only the real Only those who practice Buddhism can open it—Master, your Buddhist ceremony just now is quite standard."

Glasses Chen smiled instead of anger, "Are you laughing at me for killing so many people that I don't deserve to be called a Buddha-keeper?"

Li Qiu said solemnly: "Don't dare to laugh at me. This team is full of desperadoes who seek money and kill. No one is nobler than the other. It's just that the only three people left outside must be alive. If you insist on killing, I will kill you." I'm going to stop you here."

"What a big tone, can you do it?"

After saying that, Glasses Chen rushed towards the jade chain closest to him, and the door was startled in the west, and the whole tomb room trembled suddenly, countless cold lights shot towards Li Qiuqiqi!

Li Qiu doesn't have the skills like Ah Jiu, so he can only roll on the spot, barely sliding to the northeast, Gentu corresponds to the gate of life, but there are ten jade chains in this direction, which one is really connected to the correct way of life?

Li Qiu didn't dare to be careless, and he didn't dare to touch any chain easily. His eyes quickly searched the structure of these mechanism chains, hoping to decipher the mystery of them. Glasses Chen could see through his mind at a glance, and laughed: "Don't waste your efforts in vain." ! Do you really think you can see all the traps in such a short period of time!" He ran fast, pulling the jade chains along the way with one hand, and unlocking various traps.

The ground under his feet trembled quickly, and Li Qiu aimed at a certain chain above his head, jumped up suddenly, and hung on it wobbly.Two seconds later, the ground in the northeast corner collapsed, and the jade chain Li Qiu was hanging on remained stable, narrowly avoiding this crisis.

Chen's eyelids pricked with glasses, he did not expect Li Qiu to catch a safe route, but... "You are lucky, but this kind of lucky coincidence will never happen again!"

Before Li Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, a wave of heat rushed to his face, and four tongues of fire burst out from the ceiling and spread towards him along the wall.

Li Qiu's physical strength hadn't fully recovered yet, so he had to repeat the same trick, by swinging and clinging to another chain, barely avoiding the flames.It's just that this jade chain is also stable and safe, and it didn't cause any mechanism.

The corner of Glasses Chen's eye stabbed, and his heart was full of shock and anger. This time it was definitely not a coincidence - this brat really saw through the key points of the jade chain mechanism in just ten seconds!This is simply impossible!

When Li Qiu grabbed the jade chain for the third time, the mechanism finally activated, but it was at the feet of Glasses Chen.A row of poison darts flew out from the ground, narrowly piercing him.

——This kid not only sees through the door of life, but also uses the mechanism to attack him! ?

Li Qiu succeeded in one attack, immediately gave up the second attack, and ran towards the hanging coffin in the center with slippery steps.If the coffin is the center of the mechanism, then all the organs in the tomb must be designed with "no harm to the coffin" as the design premise, providing the coffin with enough dead space to dodge.

After all, this is the territory of Glasses Chen, and the unexpected countermeasure can only work once, and it will soon be seen through by Glasses Chen, so he has to get out as soon as possible.

"Do you think it's safe there?" Glasses Chen saw through Li Qiu's intentions at a glance, sneered endlessly, and adjusted the direction of the mechanism again.Groups of fireballs came out in response, roaring and rushing towards the coffin.

Li Qiu was staggered by the oncoming fireball, and almost fell off the chain, but at this critical moment, he accidentally saw something——on the coffin, there was something faintly glowing.

What is that, jade?Emerald?Guanyin?

Li Qiu suddenly showed panic: "Chen, what did you put on the coffin!"

"What did you say?" Glasses Chen didn't expect that this person was in danger and still had time to ask himself, what did he let go?Needless to say, he put the Jade Avalokitesvara entrusted to him by Ms. Wei on it.

Without waiting for Glasses Chen to answer, Li Qiu grabbed the chain and jumped straight down. The ground below had already collapsed, and there was no place to stand, but Li Qiu jumped down desperately.

The next second, the coffin above the head exploded, and the flames and air waves surged and hit the entire tomb, and the jade chains broke screaming one by one, like the end of the world.

——The emerald Guanyin actually exploded.

Li Qiu was sucked into the ruins by the shock wave, and countless broken stones hit him, making him unable to move. Fortunately, the jade chain he pulled helped him offset a lot of the impact, and luckily no vitals were hurt.The explosion destroyed most of the tomb chamber, gravel and loose soil kept falling from the top of his head, Li Qiu searched around with his eyes blindfolded, but he didn't see the whereabouts of Glasses Chen, and he didn't know where he was swept by the explosion.

As soon as the coffin was destroyed, the mechanism in the tomb was completely messed up, and the sound of "squeaking" river water poured in like a waterfall from far to near.

Li Qiu's legs were stuck tightly by the stone, and he struggled a few times without breaking free, the turbulent river flooded his chest in an instant, choking his mouth and nose.

"Ahem... um..."

In the nightmarish suffocation, a soft object blocked his lips, the water flowed, the world was plunged into darkness, and Li Qiu didn't even know what happened afterwards.

+ + +

I don't know how long it has passed, perhaps as long as a century, Li Qiu tremblingly opened his wet eyelids, a familiar and worried face monopolized the entire field of vision.

It's Ah Jiu.

"Hey, I've been rescued, I've just told you, as long as you spit out the accumulated water in your stomach, you'll be fine." Zhang boldly said cheerfully at the side, but he was lying sprawled on the grass. He kept panting heavily.

Li Qiu's chest itched and he coughed uncontrollably, feeling very uncomfortable when he was scratching his stomach.Ah Jiu helped him up, put a fairly dry coat on him, and ran his hands along his back.

"Little brother, your life is really terrible. This is an explosion and flooding. You can still survive. If you survive a catastrophe, you will have a blessing."

Li Qiu blinked, "We... came out?"

This time it was Ah Jiu who answered the call, "Come out, we are now in the lower reaches of the Yi River, and we can walk a few kilometers back to the scenic spot, where there is a hospital."

From Ah Jiu's intermittent supplements, Li Qiu learned that after the two were blocked from the door of the tomb, they quickly settled the savages tamed by Glasses Chen. Afterwards, the two kept trying to open the tomb, but all failed.It wasn't until an explosion occurred in the tomb, which caused the river to flow back and the underground structure to change, that Ah Jiu had a chance to find Li Qiu, whose life was hanging by a thread, in the submerged river.

Li Qiu sighed softly, he was really lucky if he said that.The explosion in the main tomb was a complete accident, and it didn't seem to be Glass Chen's plan. It was a miracle that the two of them survived the confrontation for so long without knowing it.

Ah Jiu stared at him steadily for a while, then silently and actively hugged him into his arms.This time it was Li Qiu's turn to be startled, but he quickly came to his senses, let it take its course and hugged Ah Jiu's thick back, and rubbed him contentedly.

For the rest of my life after a catastrophe, there is always an emotion that can only be released through others.

Zhang boldly saw how much these two young people fell in love with each other, so he let them hug each other well, and when both of them recovered, he restarted the topic: "What happened to the explosion? Why did you explode inside?" Is it? Where is Glass Chen? Did he plant a bomb in it?"

Li Qiu shook his head, "It's not him, it shouldn't be him...it's a strange piece of jade Guanyin."

"Avalokitesvara?" Zhang Bold sat up excitedly, "Isn't it Buddha Jade, where is the Emerald Avalokitesvara?"

"I don't know. From the tone of Glasses Chen, it doesn't seem to belong to him."

Ah Jiu's lips moved, and said, "I've seen a piece on Ms. Wei's body." Seeing the surprised gazes from those two people, Ah Jiu explained again: "When you fell into the Demon Suppressing Pool, your bodies were all wet. I saw a large jade carving pinned to her waist."

"Waist... rub, women wear jewelry on their waists these days?"

Li Qiu quickly described the piece of Guanyin, and verified with Ah Jiu that it was really Ms. Wei's jewelry.

Now that I think about it, it should be the jade Guanyin worn by Ms. Wei, who was handed over to Glasses Chen before she died, and entrusted to him to send it to the main tomb.Be it Glasses Chen or Li Qiu, everyone mistakenly thought that this was just a poor last wish of a dying woman, and ignored the purpose and identity of Ms. Wei who should not be underestimated.

The flames scraped through the coffin, and the Guanyin exploded after being heated. Therefore, this jadeite Guanyin was the miniature explosive prepared by Ms. Wei to blow up the main tomb from the beginning.Even though Ms. Wei died on the way, the Emerald Avalokitesvara finally arrived on the coffin in the tomb as she planned.

Zhang Boldly muttered to himself: "Why did you blow up the coffin? Isn't that woman a Buddhist scholar..."

No one could answer this question. Li Qiu looked back and forth, only to realize that there was one person missing: "Why are you two alone, where is Teacher Wei? Did he escape?"

As soon as he said this, Zhang boldly became indignant: "Don't mention that guy, once you said that Guanyin exploded, I would understand that all of us were put together by the people of the Wei family!"

It turned out that after the explosion in the tomb, Ah Jiu rushed in to rescue Li Qiu, Zhang boldly took Teacher Wei and ran out first, but when he looked back, there was only Teacher Wei's rope on the ground, but Teacher Wei was gone.

The rope was intact, it was not being pulled apart, but perfectly untied by someone's hands.

"The one surnamed Wei, I doubt that he has recovered long ago! We pretended to be crazy and followed us along the way, and then waited for an opportunity to escape at the last moment."

Zhang boldly swears and curses, but stares at Ah Jiu with dissatisfaction, because with Ah Jiu's ability, he can definitely see through Teacher Wei's disguise at a glance.But Ah Jiu only cared about Li Qiu all the way, which made Mr. Wei hide the truth and run away.

As if she had never heard of it, Ah Jiu carefully observed Li Qiu's face: "How does your body feel? Where does it hurt? Are your hands and feet still numb?"

Li Qiu thumped him indifferently, and said with a smile: "It's all good, the antidote you gave me is very effective, there are always minor injuries, this one can go home and take care of it slowly, let's get out of here quickly Bar."

Ah Jiu closed his mouth worriedly, he still remembered what Glasses Chen said "the antidote is ineffective". Although it might be just a threat, it made him worry until now.

"Hey, what the little brother said is that we finally escaped, and we should go back as soon as possible. Anyway, the tomb is flooded, and there is nothing worth our lingering."

Li Qiu nodded, hugged Ah Jiu's arm and wanted to stand up, but Ah Jiu put it on his back without hesitation, and carried it well.

Walking out of the cave, the bright sunlight once again occupied everyone's field of vision, and the Longmen Grottoes were shining brightly, as if this thrilling night was just a nightmare and hallucination, and when they woke up, they returned to reality.

Zhang Boldly packed up the remaining equipment and luggage, and Ah Jiu led the way to the distant scenic spot.Li Qiu leaned on Ah Jiu's shoulder, smelling the familiar man's breath close at hand, and closed his eyes in satisfaction.

After busying himself with so many things, this time, he was finally able to rest assured.
