Tomb Raiders: Ghosts

The holy land of the ancient spirit clan is located in today's Xiangxi, in an extremely sparsely populated mountain forest, if there is no Qingling to guide the way, they do not even have a map, it is really very difficult to find them.

"This is Keji Village. We have been on the road for five days, and we will stay here for one night. We will go into the mountains tomorrow."

The car was driving along the bumpy hill road. If it wasn't for Ah Jun's good driving skills, he might have driven the car into a ravine.

"It's not here yet!" Shan Ling exhaled, and spread it out on the seat.

Although he had already remembered the memory of his previous life, the Spirit Tribe was already tens of thousands of years ago, and he didn't know how to analyze the terrain like Nawu, so asking him to go back was like trying to catch a blind person.

"Of course we didn't arrive. After we entered the mountain, we still have to walk for five days." Qingling was obviously in a good mood, because he found the patriarch back this time. If the people before his death knew, It must be very happy.

Of course, you can no longer drive into the mountains. When Shan Ling heard that it would take five days to go, he collapsed. Why didn't he feel that the road to the tribe was so far away.

Qing Ling jumped out of the car with a smile on her face, and ran into the village, shouting, "Grandpa Aji, I'm coming!"

The village was a little quiet, and after a while, an old man with gray hair came out from the first house. The old man had dark skin, seeing Qing Ling pull out a faint smile.

"I'm home."

"Well, Grandpa Aki, my friends and I will spend the night in the village tonight, please tell Granny Emma."

"Okay." Aki replied, and then walked into the house.

Qingling ran back again, and then led the others to the guest house in the village.

Ah Jun looked around the village, frowned slightly, and said, "This village...is a bit quiet."

"Well, there's no one there." Chen Xiaogou nodded in agreement.

Qing Ling didn't care about their words at all, she still smiled brightly, and said: "This place is very remote, there are no fields here, and now it's summer harvest time, young people have gone to the fields, so there are very few people. "

"So that's the case." Ah Jun nodded, but for some reason, he still felt a little weird in his heart.

Shan Ling and You walked in the back, carefully surveying the village, and then walked into the guest house.

"Master?" Xiao Fengwei leaned over.

"Be careful, Qingling said it was Xiashou, and no one is in the village, but it still doesn't feel right."

"It's too quiet, not even birds and insects." Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Ah."

When it was getting dark, an old woman with a wrinkled face came to the guest house and asked if they wanted some food or something. Qing Ling originally wanted it, but Ah Jun refused.

After Granny Emma left, Qingling asked with a puzzled face: "Why don't we order some food?" He used to stay here for dinner every time he went back and forth, and Granny Emma's craftsmanship is so good. up.

"It's very strange here, it's safer to eat what you bring." Ah Jun said.

People who do this kind of thing have a high level of vigilance. If it is not under absolute safety, they will not easily use food made by others.

Hearing this, Qingling hesitated for a moment, but didn't say anything, obediently ate dry food, and went to bed early, after all, they had to go on their way tomorrow.

You didn't need to sleep, so he was the one who kept watch at night, because the village was really weird, and several people couldn't sleep well, but nothing happened. When they got up the next day, they found that Grandpa Aki and Granny Emma are gone, and the whole village is empty and deserted.

"It's really weird." Qing Ling was a little uneasy.

Because every time he came to this village, Grandpa Aji and the villagers were very warm to him, but since yesterday it has been very strange.

"Let's get out of here quickly, let's go." Shan Ling put the equipment on her back and said.

"Ah."

Led by Qing Ling and Lan, they started to enter the mountain, and after they left the village, a figure came out from a hidden place, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, showing a very ferocious smile.

"very good……"

……

Crossing mountains and ridges, it really took five days to walk. Shan Ling felt that he had grown so big that he hadn’t walked such a long way. He only felt that his feet were almost not his own. How long will the road of the Spirit Race be? He and Yu both liked to go everywhere in the past! !

Yu followed behind him, seeing that he was about to explode, smiled slightly, and reached out to hold his hand.

The slightly cool temperature soothed the depressed feeling in his heart, Shan Ling looked at Xiang Yu and smiled slightly.

When they passed through the mountains and forests, they came to a wilderness with scattered trees, and there was a tall mountain not far in front.

"It's almost here, it's on top!" Qing Ling pointed to the mountain and shouted happily, a little excited.

Shan Ling looked at the mountain that couldn't see the top, and was a little confused, because the mountain was full of rocks, and the road could not be seen at all. How to climb it, and... why didn't he remember that there was such a high mountain here before? ! ?

"Are we going to climb up?" Chen Xiaogou looked at the mountain, a little confused.

"Yes, let's go." Qing Ling waved to them, and then walked in front.

There are many rocks on this mountain, and they are very steep. Everyone followed Qingling and climbed up along the crevices of those rocks. The winged little Fengwei and Lan obviously got it easily, spreading their wings , You can fly up with a light slap, but in order to ensure the safety of everyone, they will protect it outside.

It took them two whole days to go up the mountain, but they didn't reach the top of the mountain. Instead, there was a cave halfway up the mountain. There was a pool in the middle of the mountain, and there were sharp stalagmites on the mountain wall. There are a lot of stone tools, and it can be seen that there are traces of someone who lived here.

"Passing through this place is the place where we live." Qingling said, and then a bitter look appeared on her face, and then said: "However, there is nowhere now."

Seeing his expression like this, Lan reached out and pulled him into her arms.

"You have done well, because you brought the patriarch back."

Hearing Lan's comforting words, Qing Ling finally smiled again, nodded, and said to Shan Ling: "Xiao Ling, can I have a request?"

"What?" Shan Ling looked at him.

"It's like this. The ashes of the clansmen who guarded the gate of the tribe were cremated and placed in a jar. They said they waited for the day when the patriarch returned and opened the closed road to go home again. They wanted to bury the ashes. Go back to your homeland, because no matter how much time passes, where is the root of the people of the Spirit Race."

Shan Ling looked at Qingling, nodded lightly, and said, "Of course, take all the ashes of the tribe, I will do my duty and bring everyone back to the tribe."

These spirit clansmen guarding the gate are actually tomb guards.

Hearing Shan Ling's words, Qing Ling's eyes turned red immediately, and she thanked him repeatedly.

Everyone passed through the cave and came to a valley, where they could see many large and small stone houses, and all kinds of daily necessities were hung on the entrance of those caves, which showed the hardships of these people who used to live here.

Qingling led everyone into a stone house, with a curtain hanging at the door, it was quite spacious inside, with stone beds and tables, some wooden slips, books and so on, this was his home.

A few people decided to rest here for a day today, and then move on tomorrow. It was dark, and everyone ate some dry food. Yu was in charge of the night watch, and then went to sleep.

"It's really strange that we didn't encounter any obstacles along the way." Shan Ling curled up in her sleeping bag and whispered to You who was sitting next to her.

He has not forgotten at all, and his father's adoptive father, according to Bai Lian, that person is a member of the ancient god clan, he adopted Shan Xiao, captured Bawu, and worked hand in hand with the leader of the ghost clan. The purpose, and his ultimate goal is in the Holy Land of the Spirit Clan, but since that night in the Chu family, this person seems to have disappeared, and has never appeared again, and the more this is the case, he will I feel more and more uneasy.

You naturally knew what he was thinking, and gently held his hand.

"With me here, go to sleep."

"Ah."

Shan Ling nodded, and then closed her eyes. The full moon in the sky was slowly covered by dark clouds, and there seemed to be something slowly surging in the darkness.

The next day everyone woke up early, and after breakfast they were ready to go, but Qingling put a white porcelain jar in his backpack, which contained the ashes of the spirit clansmen of the past generations.

Shan Ling stretched out her hand and gently placed it on the jar, saying: "My fellow clansmen, I will guide you on your way home."

Qingling led the crowd into one of the small stone houses, and in the middle of the small stone house was a piece of animal skin. When the animal skin was opened, it was a stone slab. Pushing the stone slab away revealed a bottomless passage inside. Because no one had entered it for many years, the air flow inside was a bit stuffy. After waiting for a long time, Ah Jun took a torch and lit it, and then threw it inside. The fire of the torch flickered in the dark and did not go out.

"You can go."

Lan was in charge of leading the way, Qing Ling, Shan Ling and You walked in the middle, then Ah Jun and Chen Xiaogou, Xiao Fengwei walked after the final break, and then walked down the passage.

This passage is very long, Shan Ling has no memory of it, it should be excavated by the later Spirit Race people.

The passage has a slight slope, and the further you go down, the wider the space will be. After about two hours, it finally came to the end. At the end of the passage is a very huge door with these patterns carved on it. There are people and trees on it. , there are flowers, grass, and butterflies flying, and there is a person standing in the front, Shan Ling can tell at a glance that it is him, his previous life, and has a spirit.

You Ling knelt down on the ground, with an extremely pious expression, stretched out his hands, and there was a round and a flat card slot in his palm. There should be two things here, and that is the key to open the door.

Shan Ling and Yu glanced at each other, because they both knew what a key was.
