Tomb Raider Gu Tomb Miscellaneous Notes

The villagers in the mountains are simple and innocent, but they are not so naive as to give generously to the three savages covered in mud.

I usually pay more attention to the image. At that time, I felt that the eyes of the villagers were strange, and I was puzzled.Later, when I washed my face, I took a picture of it in front of a basin of clear water.

Damn, saying that the savage is flattering Lao Tzu, in this life, I can't let Shen Er see me like a dog.

The village is very small, with a total of more than a dozen households, and the village chief has to decide everything.

Zhang Rui and the white coat dug out all the valuables on their bodies, and negotiated with the village chief for a long time, but he was not good at making up a cover, and he had an upright face. I thought he was too easy to be seen through, so he went to the battle and confessed to the white coat in person. Originally a student of the Academy of Fine Arts who came to sketch, then lost his way with the school team, was killed and was robbed by bandits, balabala, made a lot of hype.

This trick worked so well that the village chief finally nodded and arranged a place for us to stay.

Depend on!Pigsty!

I was about to scold my grandson when the village head turned around and pointed to the grass shed next to the pigpen.

Something is better than nothing, we will sleep on the spot with a thin quilt for one afternoon and one night.

I woke up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, and saw Zhang Rui squatting outside the hut, facing the dark sky, frowning, with a serious expression on his face.

I went over to pat him, and he looked at me without making a sound.

I sat down and asked, "Are you depressed because you didn't get what you asked for?"

Zhang Rui must have been thinking about something on his mind and lost his mind, before he said after a while: "I got the thing, but it's a wordless book."

"what?"

He took out a piece of gold silk from his pocket, and after unfolding it, I saw that there was indeed nothing on it.

"Is it a mistake?"

Zhang Rui pursed his lips and did not speak.

I sighed: "Actually, if you're fighting over your sister's affairs, I don't think it's necessary." Zhang Rui looked at me, and I continued, "You're close to death if you're fighting for your sister. , it's not worth it, maybe your sister will blame you for not cherishing yourself when you go to Jiuquan."

Without saying a word, Zhang Rui squeezed the golden silk tightly, his joints turned white, and he trembled slightly.

I could see that he was very dissatisfied.

I can see that his hands are really good at doing things. After ten years of sharpening a sword, the blood and flesh spattered on the blade, and the ten fingers connected to the heart. It is not something ordinary perseverance can bring about.Suddenly, I don't know if it's right for me to take care of other people's affairs. After all, I don't understand Zhang Rui's mood, and I don't understand his past and their family's affairs.

But I just couldn't control my mouth and said: "I'm sorry, I, an outsider, shouldn't talk too much about the right and wrong in your family. However, I just want to persuade you from the standpoint of a friend about your own affairs, you see , you fight like this, how many times can you escape with such good luck? What if one day you die in the tomb and still don’t find the answer you want, is it worth it? Brother,” I patted him, “Not for For yourself, think about those people who care about you. It’s okay for people to fight for money and make a living. You’re losing money. There’s a saying that people can’t just live in the past, but also think about the future.”

Zhang Rui remained silent, his eyes sparkled, and he looked out in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

We had nothing more to talk about, so I went back to sleep.

The next day, the white coat was overjoyed and brought good news, saying that a car had been contacted to pick us up, and it had already set off from Shijiazhuang, and it would arrive at our place before dark.

I was knocked out and brought to the mountains. I didn’t know where I was. I asked the white coat where this place was, and he said that this area is called Heishuihe Township. It’s a mountainous area, and the traffic is backward. Cars have to go around when they come in. a big circle.He couldn't tell the exact geographical location, and he had to discuss the route with the villagers for a long time before explaining it clearly to the person who picked us up.

In the evening, the car arrived. It was a Jiefang truck. I was very curious, and the white coat and Zhang Rui were also taken aback, saying that it was not like the car they called.

Asking again, it turned out that the mountain road was difficult to walk, and their friend's car sank into a pit shortly after entering the mountain and broke down.Occasionally, a truck carrying coal passed by nearby, and they happened to pick one up for them.

At that time, I was faced with a choice.As long as I go with Zhang Rui and the others, I will be able to arrive in Shijiazhuang soon, and after a few transfers of transportation, I will be able to return to my long-lost home in Shanghai.But if this is the case, maybe there will be no subsequent stories. The world is impermanent, and sometimes it is only a thought.

I asked Zhang Rui and the others to leave first, saying that I wanted to wait another two days to see if I could wait for the incense burner.The villagers said that this is the only way to get out of the mountain. I think that if the incense burner can escape, it should also pass through this village when it comes out of the ancient tomb.

I said that I have to ask the incense burner for important matters, otherwise I am afraid that I will always have a lump in my heart for the rest of my life.

Zhang Rui couldn't persuade me, so he left something for me, held my hand and said, "Take care, I hope we will meet soon."

I said that I would go to Suzhou to find him in the future and ask him to take me around Suzhou gardens.He smiled, and when he got into the car with the white coat, he looked back at me, as if hesitating to speak.

In this way, I stayed in the village for another two days, and I really couldn't bear it and wanted to give up.

But I'm not willing to just leave like this.

I thought of the robbery hole we escaped from, and I don’t understand, since it was there long ago, why didn’t the incense burner take Zhang Rui and the others through that robbery hole in the first place, how easy and convenient it was to reach the burial chamber of the jasper coffin?

I groped into the mountain again, trying to find the robber's cave again, but unfortunately I couldn't find it after going around a dozen times.Thinking about it later, the entrance of the robbery cave must be difficult to find from the outside, otherwise the nearby villagers are familiar with the terrain and can easily find the cave, and anyone can go in and walk around.

I walked back to the village in frustration, and saw an old woman standing by the grass shed fetching water.

The fetching of water was just a cover, she seemed to be waiting for me there, as soon as I passed by, she came up to stop me, took out something, and stuffed it into my hand furtively.

I looked down, and it turned out to be that piece of blood jade!

I looked at this plain-looking old woman in shock, and the old woman whispered, "Your friend asked me to give you something like this."

I think Zhang Rui and the others have already left, and maybe they have already rested at home drinking tea and surfing the Internet at this time. It is impossible for me to have acquaintances in this deep mountain and old forest. Could this "friend" be...!

"Is he wearing a black hat, er, he is tall and thin, with pale skin?" I gestured to the old woman, my palms sweating with excitement.

The old woman nodded, then shook her head: "The skin is not white, it's as black as coal, darker than our Xiao Hei!"

I guess that guy came out in the same mess as us, which made the old woman see the white face as the black face.Busy and asked again: "What about others?!"

The old woman looked at me suspiciously: "Let's go. He waited here for a while, as if he was in a hurry, and then left after talking to me. The young man looks familiar. He seems to have lived in our village before. Let me think about it." , that was how many years ago..."

I frowned, I knew that the incense burner must have been here before.I asked, "How long has he been gone?"

"It's been a while, and I'm leaving in a bullock cart."

The old woman pointed to the entrance of the village, and I stomped my feet angrily. If I had known earlier, I would not have gone into the mountains to find some caves!

But in this way, at least I know that the incense burner has escaped safely from the ancient tomb, so I have no reason to stay any longer.The next day, I also took a bullock cart to the county seat, and then contacted Shen Er.Shen Er was extremely efficient and immediately sent a helicopter to pick me up.

He jumped out of the helicopter and almost cried when he saw me.I almost cried when I saw him.

Damn, he still saw Lao Tzu's doggy appearance. If he has a big mouth in the future, he will say to everyone that I don't need to be in the circle of friends.

Shen Er covered his nose, struggled for a long time and hugged me, howled like mourning: "Xiao Wang, ohmygood! What did you do, where did my handsome Xiao Wang go?!"

I tugged at the corners of my mouth, thinking that the smell on my body was okay.

When I saw Shen Er, I felt that I had returned to the normal world. This world was real and beautiful, but suddenly it was a bit bitter.

I sighed wearily, and hugged him: "It's a man's nature to take risks, so don't ask about anything else. It's great to see you again. Although you are a little older, you are still my good brother."

Shen Er stared at me strangely, probably thinking that I was going crazy.

Back in Shanghai, I was completely stranded in bed for three days before recovering.Then there was a red rash all over the body, which was extremely itchy. I thought it was probably a side effect of the bone-eroding goldenfly powder, which tortured me to death, but fortunately it disappeared after a day.

For the next two weeks, I stayed behind closed doors, smoked several packs of cigarettes, and ignored the reminder letter from my editor in the mailbox, feeling extremely decadent.

I checked a lot of information on the tombs of Ming Dynasty kings on the Internet, and I also checked the ancient Dian Kingdom.I thought, why can the bronze knife from the ancient Dian Kingdom be used to activate the mechanism in King Qi's tomb?At that time, I felt a little strange when I saw the altar. Now that I think about it, it doesn’t look like the style of the Ming Dynasty. Could it be an imitation of the ancient Dian kingdom?

Is there any connection between King Qi's tomb and ancient Dian Kingdom?

Unfortunately, the knife remained in the tomb, and the only clue related to the incense burner was broken.And I don't know what to do with the blood jade left by the incense burner.Maybe this is my only ray of hope, but God knows if he will show up to get this jade?

I still have a lot of things to ask him, but when I think about it, I find that I don't even know his real name.

On weekdays, it is very easy for us to find someone to ask a question. From address, contact information, online, friends around us, etc., all kinds of channels are available. Maybe we can chat with each other in a few minutes, and we can answer the question we want to ask in a few words. solve.

But if I wanted to find this person, I couldn't find it at all.

Censer and I are people in two worlds. I have no way of knowing where he is and what he is doing. Our circles have no intersection, and none of my friends know him. There is no contact information, no photos, maybe I will never see this person again in my life.

People don't disappear, but if they can't be contacted all the time, he disappears to me.Because I have no way to find him, so I will never be able to ask him what I want to know.

This feeling is very uncomfortable, as if I have lost something, like air, it is clearly in front of my eyes, but I can't touch it.

I was once afraid that the incident in the ancient tomb and the incense burner were all just a dream of mine.

At this time, I suddenly thought of a person who might be able to help me find the incense burner.I called the guy right away, who used the voice box all year round, explained the situation briefly, and then just waited.

Unexpectedly, an hour later, the man called me back.

The man joked on the other end of the phone in a familiar tone, "Little wolf cub, it's so strange that you would take the initiative to find me."

I rubbed my temples and said, "Dad, I want to ask you about someone, you may know him."

"Hehe, it turns out that you can go to the Three Treasures Hall if you have nothing to do. Who are you looking for?"

I tidied up my thoughts: "His surname is Long, I don't know the exact name, but everyone calls him Young Master Long, he is... Inverted Dou. Dad, do you know what Inverted Dou means?"

My father's name is Li Haiyan, and everyone he knows calls him Dayan.

Dayan was silent for a while, and said: "I know, I know, I have heard about what happened to you in King Ming's tomb."

I cursed in my heart, damn it, I am I after all, he knows what I do? !

"Since you know everything, why don't you worry about me?"

Dayan laughed and said, "However, none of my father's friends has the surname Long!"

My heart sank, I was done thinking, even the name was fake.

Thinking about what other clues I had, I squeezed my phone and said anxiously: "Then do you remember that there was a person in the past, you helped him, and then he promised you to save me three times in the future, and even gave you a bronze knife? You sent me the knife two years ago as a birthday present, and you said it was a cultural relic from the ancient Dian Kingdom, and you lied to me that it was taken back.”

"It seems to be the case." When Dad said this, I was relieved, but I could hear him being a little vague. "That ancient saber was indeed given to your father by a young man. However, I remember His surname is not Long, he seems to be called A Dou, I thought his surname was Liu."

I stroked my forehead and wiped my sweat.The whereabouts of those who fight back are secretive. The incense burner may have used many pseudonyms, and "Master Long" is probably one of them, and "A Dou" may naturally be a fake... His ability to choose a name is yet to be considered. Talent is the focus.

As long as someone finds him, I don't care if his name is a cat or a dog.

I asked eagerly: "Dad, do you have the contact information of that person?"

"Yes, but the piece of paper with the address on it was accidentally burned by me as I threw the ashes."

"..."

Damn, no wonder mom keeps asking you to quit smoking! %@￥&*(…

"Little wolf cub," Dayan's voice changed, and I could hear his tone becoming a little vague, "Are you interested in Dao Dou?"

I froze for a moment, wondering if my father was crazy, ordinary people, what kind of father would encourage his son to do such shameful things as Daodou?

But thinking of my father's strange whereabouts over the years, and my grandfather's evasive expression every time he mentioned his father, I began to suspect that my father might have something to do with the inverted fight, otherwise how would I know the incense burner?

I cut to the chase and asked, "Father, are you from the bucket? Did you steal the things you sent me from the bucket?"

Dayan smiled and said, "Your father has no talent for fighting, but he has made many friends in this industry. Little wolf cub, I did all this for you, but I can't tell you the reason yet. One day in the future In time, you will understand."

These words are similar to what the incense burner said to me in the coffin, and they are all related to me.

But I know that if I ask now, my father will definitely not tell everything. He is the kind of person who has a good face and loves to engage in mysticism. Married to a beautiful woman, a group of rich kids can only feel envious and heartbroken.

I pondered for a while, and said, "Dad, I want to find someone. For some reason, I have to find him, but maybe I can only find this person if I enter the industry of inversion. Please help me find a way."

The incense burner is upside-down, and I think there is a way to meet him again, that is, from now on, I will also be upside-down.

Although this method is a gamble, I want to gamble on luck.If I gradually enter this circle, then I will slowly come into contact with some people in this circle, maybe someone will know the incense burner, then the chances of me meeting him again are at least higher than now.Although I don't know how big the circle of Daodou is and how deep the water is, I can't think of any other way for the time being.

I wanted more information, I wanted to make sense of the whole thing, but I didn't want to wait for someone's so-called time to tell me.

What are the incense burner and Dad hiding, what is there on me?I have to investigate these myself!

Dayan thought about it for a while, and said, "Well, let me introduce you to a master. He has an apprentice who was your playmate when he was young, and he just called me two days ago to ask about you."

"Huh? Who?"

When I was a child, I was the king of the kids in the community, leading a group of little monkeys. Those years were glorious, but now I can’t remember any of their names or faces.

Dayan smiled darkly for a while, as if something amused him.

After laughing for a while, he said: "The young man's surname is Zhang, and he has a very beautiful older sister. When you were young, you often said that you wanted to marry his older sister as your wife."

"Oh! Zhang Xiaogua!" I slapped my forehead violently.

Every little Zhengtai has such a gentle and beautiful big sister next door who wants to marry the fairy sister as his wife, although it is a pity that the fairy sister is often accompanied by another little Zhengtai.To be honest, I still remember that beautiful sister, but I don't have any impression of what Xiao Zhengta next to the beautiful sister looks like, only remember the name.

I pursed my mouth in embarrassment: "But their family is quite rich, why is he fighting now? Their family has fallen into ruin?"

"Don't worry about other people's affairs." Dayan reprimanded, "Also, his name is Zhang Rui, and he is a gentle and gentle young man. You only met him a while ago. When we meet again, don't forget about your childhood Let’s talk about the nicknames given to others, they are thin-skinned and can’t hold back their face, and you too, you don’t know taboos in this regard, if you offend anyone, you will suffer.”

"What, what? Zhang Rui?!" My heart skipped a beat, and my jaw almost fell to the ground.
