Tomb Raider Gu Tomb Miscellaneous Notes

I promised Zhang Rui, but on the morning of departure, I didn't get out of bed.

The reason was that I suddenly had a high fever of 39 and a half degrees. The heat came suddenly and fiercely. My whole body seemed to have been fried in a frying pan.

The doctor came to see it, gave a few words to the incense burner, and then left. I didn't understand what he said in a daze.The incense burner sat by the bed and stayed with me for a long time. When I became more conscious, I grabbed his hand and said, "If Zhang Rui and the others are impatient, tell them to go first."

The incense burner stared at me quietly: "You haven't eaten since morning."

I said, "I'm a little hungry."

"Whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you."

I smiled: "Apart from chopping vegetables, you are not good at anything else, so you should order takeaway."

The incense burner was out for a long time before I came back, and brought a bowl of millet porridge in front of me. I glanced at it, and there were some green onions, peas and minced meat in it. It was obviously made in my own kitchen, and it looked pretty decent.

He took a spoonful of it, blew it cold and brought it to my mouth, I smiled and said, "You made it?"

The incense burner's face darkened, I thought he was afraid that I would say that the porridge he made was not good.In fact, he loves to hear me say that he is good. As long as I praise him a few words, even if it is about sesame and mung beans, he will be bright all day long.I remember one time, I praised him for his good vision, and the items he brought back sold quickly, and the customers liked them all. Thanks to him, the business in the store was booming.He listened with joy, much brighter than usual.In the evening, after drinking some wine, he rolled into bed. Under the charming lamp, his complexion was ruddy, and the tip of his protruding eyes was shining brightly. I couldn't dare to look directly into those slender eyes.

Thinking of this, after I swallowed the porridge, I hurriedly said, "Not bad, I like the taste."

Unexpectedly, the face of the incense burner became more gloomy, and slowly squeezed out a few words: "This is cooked by Zhang Rui, and I fed all the cooking to the stray dog ​​at the door."

I was sweating in the night, and when I woke up, I found that the incense burner was not on the bed, and there was no sign of him in the room.

Suddenly the window door opened with a "click", and a figure flashed into the room and rushed to the bed.I groaned, thinking it was a thief, but the figure sat down and looked at me quietly.

The clouds outside the window slowly parted, revealing the bright moon. Through the moonlight, I could see the outline of the figure, and said in surprise: "Zhang——"

"Hush!" Zhang Rui sneaked a look at the door, then turned his face, "I'm here to see if your condition shows any signs of improvement."

I smiled bitterly and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect to get sick at this juncture."

The moonlight was covered by the clouds for a while, and I only saw Zhang Rui's mouth moving as if he was about to speak, but the room suddenly became dark, and his voice didn't come out, followed by the sound of someone pushing the door and entering the room .

When my eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, I saw Zhang Rui step aside a few steps, and a tall and thin figure sat by the bed instead, with long hair hanging down to his waist, and his cold fingers touched my face.

"Stealing into other people's rooms in the middle of the night, isn't that bad?" These words were obviously addressed to Zhang Rui.

The moonlight shined into the room again through the glass window, Zhang Rui stood in the light, sneered and said, "No, I'm afraid I won't be able to see you in the rest of my life."

He squinted his eyes, and his eyes were vaguely in the shadow of the tufts of broken hair on his forehead, like a blade with a gloomy luster.

The incense burner looked down at me and said calmly, "I told you, he just has a fever."

The sparks between the two people's words were flying, and there was a battle. I hurriedly held the hand of the incense burner, but he lowered his head and kissed my forehead, preventing me from speaking: "Hey, close your eyes and go to sleep."

The words of the incense burner were more gentle than usual, and Zhang Rui snorted coldly: "Master Long, Boss Ji from the alley pharmacy said that you bought dried flowers a few days ago, what are those dried flowers used for?"

Zhang Rui's voice was high-pitched and loud, as if he was speaking to me on purpose.

I looked at the incense burner without knowing why, and the incense burner said expressionlessly: "Drink scented tea in summer, clear the fire and refresh yourself, Mr. Zhang also wants to get to the bottom of this?"

Zhang Rui raised his eyebrows: "Can five-color plums be used to make tea?"

"It's just for making a sachet." The incense burner said coldly, "I'm used to carrying a sachet with me, so Mr. Zhang doesn't need to ask why?"

Zhang Ruidao: "Don't you know that the scent of five-color plums is poisonous?"

"So then I threw it away."

It is rare for the incense burner to be so talkative. Usually, when others ask him a dozen or so sentences, he may not be able to answer aloud, but he answered all of Zhang Rui's questions, and each sentence has a lot of words.

I looked at the incense burner, and his whole face was buried in the shadows, so I couldn't see his expression clearly.

"Sorry to bother you." Zhang Rui retreated to the window, turned out the window and left.I waited for the incense burner to lie down on the bed, and said in a warm voice: "The poison of five-color plums seems to cause symptoms such as fever and diarrhea, but it is easy to eat in summer and cause gastroenteritis. I have a fever... Incense burner, you Don't feel guilty about it."

The incense burner didn't make a sound, I turned my head and saw his back was facing me, the moonlight was like a layer of mist, lightly sprinkled on his thin shoulder line, and the arc went down to disappear at the waist.

Such a lonely feeling.

I thought over and over again about the conversation between him and Zhang Rui just now, and after thinking about it, I felt that there was something wrong with the incense burner.

I said softly: "Xiang Lu, I won't be with Zhang Rui and the others. After a while, the store will be closed, and I will go to fight with you. Zhang Rui, Jiang Wuye and the others may not be able to see the tomb of the Lord Tongtian." Find it in a short time, I believe that with your ability, the two of us will not lose to them." I paused, trembling slightly, "Where else do you want to go, tell me, I will always follow you and do it wholeheartedly Your oil bottle, okay?"

After waiting for a while, the incense burner said: "Why do you say such things?"

"I...I don't want you to be unhappy."

After a long time, the incense burner said: "As long as I think of you, I will not be unhappy, but if you are unhappy, I will be unhappy. I want you to be happy, not to lock you in Beside me, it's stuffy like a bottle of oil."

I couldn't help but chuckle when I heard this, and then a trace of sourness ran through my heart inexplicably.

"Zhang Rui is waiting for you to go," said the incense burner, "you can go with them. I will stay in Changsha to look after the store, otherwise half a year's hard work will be abandoned like this, what a pity."

In order to wait for me, Zhang Rui stayed in Changsha for more than ten days. I was really embarrassed to let him wait for nothing.So later, I left Changsha together with Zhang Rui and the others.

Although the face of the incense burner was very ugly that day, when I saw his face, I changed my mind temporarily and couldn't say it. Zhang Rui immediately glared over, and the incense burner urged me: "If you promise others, you can't go back on your word. Say it all."

Zhang Rui's eyes lightly swept towards the incense burner. The incense burner was dignified, and he turned around and pretended not to see it.

These two people are getting more and more at odds with each other. I'm afraid that when I turn around, they will each stab each other in the back.Sitting in the car, I have been thinking over and over again, what is the incense burner thinking, and his face is full of expressions that he does not want me to follow Zhang Rui, but he keeps pushing me to go on the road. He has never been a duplicity person. Just say what you want, or just keep silent, but when did people become so hypocritical?

Tsundere and arrogant, isn't that the patent of Brother Zhang and Queen Zhang?

Following my disturbed thoughts, I couldn't help but glance at Zhang Rui.

Zhang Rui seemed to hold back for a long time, and when the car had already driven out of the border of Hunan, he leaned against the car window and said slowly: "Bottle, do you know that it was Master Long who deliberately let you smell the scent of five-colored plums, which caused you to be poisoned and have a fever?" ?”

I pouted: "Why do you say he did it on purpose?"

Zhang Rui laughed: "You have sex every night, it's too easy for him to attack you."

He half-closed his eyes, his eyes swept over from the end of his eyes, and he looked sideways at me.With a stern face, I said unhappily: "What's wrong with you, you speak so badly, it's all about targeting the incense burner, and you want to quarrel with me?"

Zhang Rui turned his face away and said nothing more.

The white coat couldn't help but said: "Brother, you wrongly blame us for being the head of the house. Have you seen the dog in front of your shop?"

I was taken aback: "What happened to the dog?"

"When we set off in the morning, did you still see it squatting in front of your store? Do you think it went to other places to beg for food? No, that dog died last night! Ever since it ate my porridge, it has been sluggish every day Lie there without moving, until yesterday it finally died!"

The white coat grinned and said to me: "Brother, I'm afraid you were fucked up by my master last night, so you should sleep until dawn?"

He had a hooligan look on his face, and I was very upset when I saw it: "None of your business!"

The white coat sneered: "Damn it, the person next to your pillow has been out in the middle of the night, do you know? The young master went to bury the dog's body under the Chengdong Bridge while you were asleep. We dug out the body and dissected it. The animal was poisoned by the flower poison of the five-color plum, and it was also mixed with asparagine, what is asparagine, do you know?!"

I couldn't help but tremble when I heard it.In the passenger seat, the strange man said: "Dieffenbachia contains asparagine, the toxin damages the vocal cords, and it will cause hoarseness after taking it."

Zhang Rui turned to me: "The combination of the two plants is a poison commonly used by Gu masters. It will not cause death, but the person who takes it may not be able to take care of himself for the rest of his life."

I said in a rough voice: "You think that the incense burner poisoned the porridge, which was originally cooked for me to drink. You want to say that he wants to harm me?"

Zhang Rui's eyes were sharp, and he said to me in a deep voice, "Bottle, I told you that the most dangerous person may be the person closest to you."

"No! There is no reason for the incense burner to do this, you must have misunderstood him!" I retorted sharply, and a burst of anger surged into my chest, "Zhang Rui, you may not like the incense burner, but I hope you are not trying to make him feel uncomfortable in this way." I doubt the incense burner, otherwise I will go back to Changsha immediately!"

"Lu Yao knows the horsepower, and it takes a long time to see people's hearts." Zhang Rui smiled faintly, and turned his face away, "For the time being, it doesn't matter why Young Master Long did this, but if he hurts you, I will not let him go."
