Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 414 Guess
"Queen my foot! Why don't you just stop calling yourself Her Majesty the Queen?"

"You also like that gourd demon called Fu Lu Xiao Jingang, don't you? You really are a snake spirit!"

Hu Ming somewhat regretted teaching this woman modern knowledge.
But there was nothing we could do back then.

Having missed the rainy season, I've been stuck in this godforsaken place for over a year, and apart from this woman, there's no one to talk to or relieve my boredom.

And those ghost soldiers... Hu Ming must be out of his mind to chat with those repulsive-looking guys!
"The Little God of Fortune and Prosperity? What's that?"

Everyone was stunned, racking their brains but unable to recall what Hu Ming had said.

Is this a heavily modified version of the Calabash Brothers saving their grandfather?
"..."

Hu Ming forgot, there aren't 100,000 lame jokes yet...

"Forget it, you can tell me about these trivial things later. Now we need to get down to business."

The Queen Mother of the West wasn't one to dwell on things. If she couldn't figure it out, she simply let it go. She then changed the subject and looked at the "unrelated" people besides Hu Ming and the young man.

The Queen Mother of the West can be considered the earliest female emperor in the ancient civilization of the Celestial Empire.

Such a person is decisive and ruthless, with an extremely strong personality.

The fact that the Queen Mother of the West expended countless lives to reproduce the Corpse Beetle King is a clear indication of this.

Those women are never good people!
Not just anyone has the right to disturb her peaceful daily life.

Throughout the centuries, there have been lucky individuals who overcame numerous difficulties to reach this place, but what became of them?
If the Queen Mother of the West takes a liking to someone, she will force them to be fed a special corpse beetle pill to alter their memories and keep them as an eternal ghost soldier at her command.

But the Queen Mother of the West disapproved of it.
You have to understand, this place isn't that big, but raising so many crested snakes means their food needs are enormous!
Even the landlord's family doesn't have enough to spare; the Queen Mother of the West worries about the food source for the crested snakes every year.

Not everyone is qualified to coexist peacefully with the Queen Mother of the West, let alone make deals with her.

This was only because of Hu Ming and Xiao Ge; otherwise, when Wu Xie and his group first stepped into the underground water storage system, the Queen Mother of the West would have already dispatched her ghostly soldiers to besiege them.

Are the Nine Gates really that powerful? The Queen Mother of the West wouldn't care about that!
Even considering Hu Ming and Xiao Ge's feelings, letting them come here was already the limit for the Queen Mother of the West.

If they continued onward, they would be heading towards the Meteorite Jade, which was the true lair of the Queen Mother of the West. How could she possibly allow these people to enter?
You could tell from the expectant looks on Wu Xie's and the others' faces that they were really eager to go inside and take a look.

“Go back, nephew. Your journey should end here. Take Wu Sansheng and Panzi back with you.”

"You are not qualified to enter the path that follows."

Hu Ming lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, exhaled a smoke ring, and said in a deep voice.

In fact, this is exactly the case.

Curiosity should have its limits; not all curiosity can be satisfied.

And some things, if you don't have the right to know them, will only bring you trouble and misfortune.

The more you know, the faster you die; this is no joke.

"But.."

Wu Xie and Fatty looked at the meteorite with resentment. They'd already come this far, and now they were being told they could only take a quick look from the outside and then had to go back? Who would be willing to accept that?
For Wu Xie, this journey was undoubtedly a failure.

Not only were his original doubts unresolved, but even more confusion arose. He hated this feeling.

"There are no buts, but this is the only thing I can't do as you please. The things involved are not something you should know."

"Let me make this clear, nephew, I'm not discussing this with you!"

"If you still don't want to leave, believe me, I won't hesitate to knock you out and let the blind man lead you out!"

Hu Ming looked at Hei Xiazi.

"Don't worry, leave it to me!"

"At worst, I'll just keep knocking Third Master unconscious all the way. If he wakes up, I'll knock him unconscious again, until the rainy season ends!"

"During this time, I remember the Hong family brought a lot of glucose? It was definitely enough to keep them alive!"

The blind man gave a thumbs-up, with an expression that said, "Leave it to me, you can rest assured."

There are some things that the blind man knows a little about, but he doesn't want to get involved.

He knew very well that the more he knew and the more involved he became, the more trouble he would cause. For example, his clansman Qi Yu was still living a life worse than death.

A blind man wouldn't let momentary curiosity disrupt his carefree life.

"Of course, and you too, Aning. Stop hiding. Now that you've got what you wanted, it's time for you to leave."

"Judging by the time you get back to camp, your brother should be arriving around the same time, right?"

Women's curiosity is a real nuisance," Hu Ming said with a headache, looking at A Ning who was pretending not to exist.

"Sasha? What's he doing here? Why is he here?"

Ah Ning was stunned, a little slow to react.

"you guess?"

Hu Ming blinked.

Anyone with a brain knows that after things are settled with the Wang family, they'll definitely come here to check on my sister's safety out of concern.

After all, her sister is still in the hands of that "bastard" Hu Ming!
How could Jiang Zi not rush over to check on his sister's safety?
"...Okay, I think I've got it..."

Seeing Hu Ming's expression, A Ning sighed and rubbed her forehead.

She wasn't stupid. Hu Ming and Sasha had completely unrelated professions, so how could they know each other? And be so close, with Hu Ming taking care of his older sister for his younger brother?
Damn it!
Aning hadn't wanted to speculate about this before, but now that she thought about it carefully, Hu Ming, that scoundrel, was probably using her to threaten her brother into doing something!
Previously, in the Gobi Desert, Hu Ming insisted on taking a photo with her, which was probably something he was waiting for here!
"It's good that you've figured it out. I don't want to be aimed at by your brother with a sniper rifle every day. Although I'm not afraid, it's still quite annoying."

Hu Ming shrugged.

"And her."

Watching the exchange between the group with a blank expression, and seeing that Hu Ming had dealt with the others, Xi Wangmu pointed at Chen Wenjin and said, "Kai."

Chen Wenjin, who was trying her best to be a quiet and beautiful "young girl" on the side, was completely stunned.

What the hell? I can't even go in?
Wouldn't that mean certain death?
