[Tomb Raiders Notes] Play to the depths, enter the venue by yourself

The existence forgotten by the world

Zhang Yan got up from the bed when it was just dawn. He didn't rush to find more clues first, but went to the nearest village to buy a set of cleaning tools, and then started his cleaning operation that lasted for several days.

And Zhang Yan, who was cleaning and observing carefully, also had a general understanding of this place in his heart. This area may have been full of institutions, but it seems that they were demolished or aged, and there are only some remaining traces from the decayed mats in the guest rooms. Judging from the lint traces and the traces of use in the cabinet, there are probably 30 to 40 people living in the guest room, and the Pharmacy Hall and the Craftsman Hall are obviously two places where medicines and some utensils are produced in batches, and even the output is obviously not high from the traces. Small, the previous open space should be a place to dry things and train. It seems that I have "worked" in the Zhang family before, but Zhang Yan thought about the possible number of people in the Zhang family in the Ming Dynasty. Hundreds of people, according to the size of the place and the demand of the Zhang family, if it is operating at its limit, it will definitely be no problem to supply only the Zhang family, but it is obviously impossible to operate at full capacity here, and according to his personality, he is willing to give the Zhang family here. Instructing and making medical equipment is the limit. As for working all day long?It doesn’t exist, it’s good to go fishing for two days in less than three days.

But judging from the traces of work here, it is estimated that the Zhang family did not say all of them at that time, but at least one-third of the life-saving medicines and small hidden weapons or other consumables came from here.Even if it is speculated from this, maybe the Zhang family still has a lair nearby...

Thinking of this, Zhang Yan couldn't help sighing deeply. He never thought that he had such a deep connection with the Zhang family. He remembered what he swore to Zhang Qiling before... He can only be thankful that he didn't directly talk to the Zhang family. It doesn't matter, otherwise the face would have been slapped now.

Zhang Yan, who was still cleaning up, looked at the orderly items in front of him, and immediately had a new doubt. This place was obviously expensive, even if something happened to him later, he was gone, or there were some medicines and so on. If there is a problem, it can’t be done, but it is reasonable to say that the two main processing plants here can also start part of their own work. How could they be abandoned suddenly like this?

And judging from the remaining traces, everyone here in the past was not prepared to evacuate before leaving. All the daily necessities were clearly available and well-prepared. Even the doors of other halls were not locked except for the attic. After tidying up the room, what would you do if you left together for a while, as if you would come back later to continue working, but what accident happened later and you didn't come back?

Zhang Yan carefully recalled the situation of the formation when he came, it was completely normal, except for the violence when he came to open the way, the other loopholes were purely in disrepair due to wind and rain, and there was no trace of fighting or being forced to leave at all.

Zhang Yan frowned, and always felt that this situation seemed abnormal, because judging from the remaining situation, it seemed that this place was forgotten by everyone in an instant... Forgotten?Zhang Yan suddenly thought of himself.Will it have something to do with me?

Then he shook his head and thought it was wrong. Judging from the note, he had been away for a long time at that time, and the place was definitely still in use when the person who left the message wrote the note, and what reason would make this place Did all the working Zhang family leave in an orderly manner for the time being?

Zhang Yan thought of a possibility, that was the funeral of the patriarch where he was at that time, and this place was probably forgotten in an instant after the patriarch who left the letter passed away...

Thinking about the contents of the note again, Zhang Yan was a little silent, and his heart became a little bitter. Therefore, the real reason for this is that after the last person who really missed him died, everything about him was instantly forgotten by the world Yeah?

But since those who missed him at that time were all dead, it's no big deal to be forgotten by the world.Zhang Yan smiled indifferently, the people who cared were gone, so forget it, Zhang Yan retracted his thoughts, shook his head, and continued to clean up.

Zhang Yan cleaned up here for five full days before he finally cleaned up the place. During the period, he also checked the deserted fruit and vegetable garden behind the attic. There were still some animal skeletons left beside the garden. When he saw the skeleton, Zhang Yan stopped walking consciously and didn't look at that piece again.

After cleaning up the Taoist temple, Zhang Yan continued to search for some clues. The bookshelves in the attic were full of knowledge books, and there was nothing unusual except that the reading was very mixed.Instead, Zhang Yan found two specially made blueprints in the dark compartment of the desk on the first floor. One was a map of the country and local forces in the Ming Dynasty, and some circles with unclear meanings were specially marked on it.The other one is very obvious, it is the structural map of this place, and even the outer formation structure is on it, but the strange thing is that this valley does not seem to have a core center as the main valve, and each area is scattered.

Perhaps because there is no need for such a thing here?After all, it was only a residence for him?Zhang Yan didn't bother to think about the reasons. After all, the time was too long, and he wasn't in the mood to think about it.

According to this structural diagram, Zhang Yan first went to the basement in the attic, but found that there were some records of the Zhang family and even some genealogy backups, so he automatically retreated out without entering to check.There are several underground storage rooms below the entire building complex, which mostly store some rare minerals, a small amount of medicinal materials, and various other living materials.

After briefly visiting these buildings, Zhang Yan looked at the last place on the blueprint that he didn't go to, which was the bare mountain wall on the right side when he came here.But judging from the drawings, it was actually the real medicine storage room and...his tomb.

Looking at the location circled on the drawing, and the "My Tomb..." which was obviously written by himself later, Zhang Yan had a strange expression. What was he thinking when he wrote this?Do you need to bring a tilde to mark the location of your own tomb?I didn't expect him to be so boring.

But from this, he also determined that he definitely would not have come to this world when he was a child. Since he would use this kind of modern symbols, it must have happened after he was ten years old.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yan recalled the bad experience of being used by an evil way to be a medicine man... He was sold to that evil way since he was a child, if he hadn't suddenly had the evil spirit in his mind when he was 16 years old. Something...he has been used to make medicine now, right?

"Where there is gain, there must be loss..." Zhang Yan sighed, no longer thinking about those messy things, and was going to visit his own tomb.

Opening the mechanism on the mountain wall, Zhang Yan quickly walked through the various drug storage areas, approached the deepest passage, and then opened another mechanism passage on the side of the end of the passage, but after reaching the end, he only saw to a mess...

Zhang Yan looked at the place in front of him where violence had obviously been vented: the funeral objects such as the ever-burning lamps were overturned, and the coffin was chopped into pieces...

Looking at the tragic "tomb" in the whole picture, Zhang Yan's face was full of splendor. Who is this guy who has a deep hatred with him, and destroyed his good tomb like this?

Zhang Yan glanced left and right and walked forward. On top of a pile of coffin fragments, he looked at the only piece of intact and conspicuous ground. A few code words were carved on it with a knife: "Where are you pretending to be dead..."

"The guy who took away two belongings..."

"If I really die, I will eat all the coffin pieces..."

"So your tomb is gone, the same as other places..."

"If you want to fight, come to the Zhang family..."

Zhang Yan immediately stood there dumbfounded, he looked at these lines of code words seriously, his heart was extremely complicated but he couldn't get angry at all, his temper seemed to have completely disappeared here.

The time barrier of 600 years... He touched his empty and seemingly sad heart, and suddenly felt a little evasively glad that he had forgotten it. If he was still there, how could he carry on with this heavy memory? go down?

After a long time, Zhang Yan let out a deep breath. He didn't continue to read, but immediately left here without hesitation, just as if he had never been here before.

After he came out, Zhang Yan calmed down again, and started to look at another map. He was going to find something to do for himself, so he could divert his attention.

After staring at those circled places for a while, Zhang Yan immediately decided to look at these places on the map, so that he would know what these symbols represent, and maybe he could find some traces of the past?

In the end, Zhang Yan only stayed in the valley for less than a month before leaving.

During the period, he used the tools and materials here to re-make a batch of medicines, some small tools and hidden weapons, then put on the Taoist robe and equipped with a sword and a futon. After bringing these things and the map, Zhang Yan went out of Shiwandashan and started Follow the map to find the places marked on the map.

At the end of summer, Zhang Yan has followed the map to find four places along the line from Nanning to Sichuan. Three of the circles are all ancient tombs, two of which have been completely opened by archaeologists, and the other is still deep in the mountains. It is unknown, but there are no useful clues, just an ordinary tomb.The corresponding location of the other square mark is a small Taoist temple, and there is only a little wall foundation left, and it is estimated that it was used as a temporary rest at that time.

When he arrived in Chengdu, Sichuan, Zhang Yan temporarily stopped this meaningless tracing, after all, the time is too long.It would waste too much time to continue to try their luck one by one, so he planned to rest for two more days before going to Beijing to beat Fatty's Qiufeng to change his mind.

A fat man far away in Beijing suddenly sneezed.

It's a pity that every time someone has a good calculation, something goes wrong...for example...he got on the wrong train and got off at the wrong station.

Zhang Yan looked at the big words "Qinling Station" on the station sign, and fell into deep thought.So, how did he get it wrong?

In desperation, Zhang Yan took out the map and looked at it. Since everyone has come here, it is better to walk around here. After all, there are several signs on the map that happen to be nearby.

Zhang Yan shook his long hair that was casually tied behind his head with the bronze bell hanging on it, sighed and walked out.

A few days later, Zhang Yan, who wandered around in the Qinling Mountains near Baoji but found nothing, began to doubt his life, so he made a fortune teller for himself, "What does this hexagram look like?" Blinking, the meaning of the hexagram is simple, it means that a friend will be in great danger in the northeast, but there are no friends near him?Fatty is in Beijing, Wu Xie is in Hangzhou, and as for Zhang Qiling, who knows where he is living in a corner, it is impossible to be here anyway.

Having been greatly stimulated before, and wandering around the mountains and rivers for too long, Zhang Yan has long forgotten that there is such a thing as a so-called plot.It wasn't until he calculated a few hexagrams based on this and looked at the map that he realized that something might happen in Qinling.

Zhang Yan looked at the hexagram, and then looked to the northwest where the hexagram pointed. After thinking about it, he became a little moved by the idea of ​​looking for Wu Xie. He had thought of abducting Wu Xie before, but he just cared There were so many things involved in Wu Xie that he didn't make a move.

"I didn't expect Wu Xie to come to Qinling at this time... It just happened to happen, so I'd better follow the past to see that piece of fragrant tofu, and just in time to see what kind of trick the so-called bronze tree materialization is. As Zhang Yan thought about it, he hurried towards the direction indicated by the hexagram.

At this time, classmate Wu Xie, who was still being driven around deliberately by his little old itch, was bumping on the winding road to the source of the Jialing River.

"I'm old, I'm old, I'm useless when I'm old. Three...Three years ago, when I walked this road, I was able to argue with the women next to me. I didn't expect that I could even open my eyelids...I couldn't open them this time." It's gone." Wu Xie said with a little itchiness, and vomited profusely, as if he was about to spit out bile.

And Wu Xie, who was led by the old itchy to shake a big circle, was even more angry. He kept regretting why he let such an unreliable old itchy lead the way, and scolded: "Don't talk so much about your mother , Don’t go on the expressway, you insist on taking the winding mountain road, and now you regret having a fart.”

The old itchy who couldn't vomit could not speak, so he could only wave his hand to Wu Xie to signal not to talk to him.

At this time, an explosion sound suddenly came from a distance, shaking the window glass of the car to buzz, and the whole car was in a commotion.Wu Xie looked out the window, only to see dust and smoke rising from the opposite mountain.

The old itchy was taken aback, and immediately asked Wu Xie, "What...what's going on? There's... an earthquake!"

At this time, a middle-aged man who looked like a local turned around and said, "You two come from other places, don't you know this? Someone is bombing the tomb."

At this time, Zhang Yan, who was a thousand meters away and approaching, also faintly heard the voice, "Someone is blowing up something? Could it be Wu Xie who did it? Shouldn't it?" Zhang Yan was completely misled by the sound of explosives in the distance. Yan couldn't help but stop, and went to the source of the sound, "Go and see first, what if it's true?"
