Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 454 Don't underestimate me just because I'm small; I can take on ten of them.
Where was it found?

The son's expression changed, and he quickly asked.

“It was in the Buffalo Head Gully. Alai’s son was returning from hunting when he found it.”

The visitor replied.

"Why did Dad go so far?" the son asked, taken aback.

What place is that?

Wu Xie casually asked a question.

"That's the mountain pass in front of Zhoudu Mountain and Yangjiao Mountain. It takes most of the day to get there."

Ah Gui also grabbed his weapons and followed the search and rescue team composed of the best hunters.

"Yangjiao Mountain? No way..."

"Besides him, was there anyone else? Or was it truly just an accident?"

Hu Ming frowned slightly and murmured softly.

The ghostly figure died last night, so logically, no one should have deliberately tried to kill Panma!

But why did an accident still happen?
Hu Ming also believed that with Ghost Man dead, Pan Ma would probably return safely today.

If we can persuade him to lead everyone deeper into Yangjiao Mountain, we should be able to reach our destination tonight.

It can only be said that there is never a shortage of accidents in this world.

"Uncle Ming, what are you saying?"

Hu Ming's voice was so soft that Wu Xie, who was next to him, couldn't hear it clearly.

"It's nothing. Let's follow them; maybe we can help in some way."

Hu Ming shook his head and went straight out to follow the search and rescue team.

"what's going on?"

"Naive, is Uncle Ming out of his mind, or am I blind?"

"When did Uncle Ming become so helpful?"

The fat man stared blankly at Hu Ming's retreating figure, somewhat unable to understand.

We've known each other for quite some time now, and we all know each other's true colors and intentions perfectly.

Hu Ming, while not exactly a rotten scoundrel, is a kind person who helps others. This kind of persona is completely unrelated to Hu Ming.

"Maybe they discovered something was wrong?"

Wu Xie also shook his head blankly, unable to understand Hu Ming's actions.

But when I turned around, I saw that the young man had already silently followed.

Helpless, the two sighed and could only obediently follow in the footsteps of the two.

By this time, the villagers' search and rescue team had been formed.

There were about twenty people, equipped with torches and flashlights, leading hunting dogs, and carrying hunting rifles, all ready to go.

The mountains and forests are very dangerous at night.

Many predators that are not visible during the day are mostly active at night.

It's worth mentioning that A-Gui even specially called Yun Cai over.

It was said that the clouds would protect the four of them.
To be honest, among Hu Ming and his three friends, Hu Ming and the younger brother are the kind of guys who look thin when dressed but have muscles when undressed. When they're dressed, they look like skinny young men who don't exercise much.

Wu Xie is the kind of scholar who is completely powerless.

And the fat man.
Damn, he's living too well, which has made him so fat.

A-Gui was genuinely worried about the four pampered city kids following him into the mountains, but they insisted on going, so he had to call his youngest daughter to protect them closely, just in case. Yun Cai was a well-known young hunter in the village.

"Tsk, being protected by a young girl like this is the first time we've ever been treated like this."

Hu Ming looked at the clouds and couldn't help but click his tongue softly.

"Hey, Yun Cai, let me tell you, if anything unexpected happens later, remember to hide behind the fat boss!"

"This chubby guy of mine, all that fat, I built up to protect people from the wind and rain!"

The fat man chuckled and ran up to Yun Cai, patting his chest with an air of familiarity.

"Hey fat boss, don't underestimate me. Don't let my size or being a woman fool you; I'm pretty good in action!"

"I could probably take on ten of you!"

Yun Cai snorted softly, retorting with dissatisfaction.

Fight ten?
May I ask if your esteemed teacher is Master Ip? Did you receive the true teachings of Wing Chun?
That being said, the founder of Wing Chun was actually a woman named Itsuki.

Walking with the search and rescue team through the dark forest, Hu Ming looked around at his surroundings.

I have this feeling that I've been wandering in the mountains and forests for the past two nights. Damn it, could it be that I'm destined to be associated with the forest, or that my Five Elements are lacking the element of wood?
Hu Ming's casual, divergent thinking amused even himself.

The forests near the village had all been cut down, so the road ahead wasn't difficult to travel.

However, this place receives a lot of rain, and it rained recently, leaving water everywhere on the ground, teeming with dead leeches.

Hu Ming noticed it last night.

For Hu Ming, this was not a problem.

However, this is somewhat of an obstacle for the search and rescue team.

However, compared to the depths of the mountains and forests, the journey here is undoubtedly much easier.

Shuiniutougou is located between Zhaizi Forest Protection Area and Dabao Forest Protection Area, and there is also Zhoudu Mountain on the boundary of the forest protection area.

Between the two mountain peaks lies Shuiniutougou, the group's destination.

It's deep inside the Ten Thousand Mountains, a remote and desolate place that still retains some of the features of a primeval forest, and it's extremely dangerous inside.

The villagers even put up a sign at the mountain pass, warning outsiders not to enter.

Apart from the old hunters in the village, no one else in the village had ever ventured deep into that area.

As it happened, the man Hu Ming and his companions were looking for was none other than the most respected old hunter in the village.

As you continue deeper into Yangjiao Mountain, you almost reach the border.

After all, it's a border area bordering a certain southern region, and that place is very chaotic.

Under normal circumstances, people from the village would never venture deep into that area.

Panma was an exception; in recent years, he has frequently visited Yangjiaoshan alone.

No one in the village, including his son, knew why.

Hu Ming did know something about it; Panma and Ghost Man were connected.

The Ghostly Man's lair is deep within Goat Horn Mountain.

However, Panma knew too much, and the Ghost Man had long wanted to silence him.

It's unclear what happened to Panma after the Ghost Man died.

It took them most of the day to walk there, and they didn't reach Shuiniutougou until the early hours of the morning.

The person who found the blood-stained clothes pointed to a tree and said that the clothes were found on the tree.
