Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 596: Childish tricks!

"This is the right-angle turn of the ruins wall. It's very safe. Don't worry, as long as we don't encounter a sandstorm that can submerge the entire ruins, we will not be in any danger."

"It looks like this sandstorm will last for at least a few hours. Let's take a good rest now."

"Also, nephew, it's already this late, shouldn't you take off those sunglasses you use to show off? Can you really see clearly?"

After tilting the driver's seat back slightly, Hu Ming half-lay on the driver's seat and stretched out leisurely.

"…Didn't you scare me so much that I forgot about it?"

Wu Xie pinched his nose, took off his sunglasses that were more for show than for actual use, and looked a little embarrassed.

It's true, it was dark outside the window, and all I could see was dark dust. Wearing sunglasses in this environment is no different from being blind.

"I think you've been with that blind guy for too long. You really think your eyes are the same as his..."

"But then again, in this kind of weather, I hope the blind man has better luck and doesn't lose his life for no apparent reason."

Hu Ming looked back at the big white dog leg hung on Wu Xie's waist and smiled with a gloating look.

"Uncle Ming, what about you? If I leave you in this environment, do you have a chance to escape?"

"Me? My abilities are beyond your imagination. A sandstorm of this magnitude will definitely not kill me. At most, I will just be in a state of embarrassment."

"Then he definitely wouldn't die for such a silly reason. He, Menyouping, and...these three are the only three people in the world whose skills are only slightly inferior to yours!"

Wu Xie stroked the cold steel knife at his waist and smiled confidently.

"And? I understand the third one you mentioned. It turns out that you have already crossed the snow-capped mountain in Medog and reached the deepest part of the Himalayas."

Hu Ming was slightly stunned, and a figure in a blue Tibetan robe emerged from the depths of his memory, and he said with a hint of emotion.

"After you left, I went to Motuo quite a few times, Uncle Ming. I found a lot of information about Men Youping there. I also walked the route that Men Youping had walked in the past."

"Well, I almost lost my life there that time!"

Wu Xie stroked his stubble and silently calculated the time in his mind.

If we calculate carefully, after this plan is over, it will be about time to set off for the Changbai Mountains, right?
The ten-year period is just around the corner!
"What are you... talking about?"

Li Cu, with a confused look on his face, said that he simply couldn't understand the stream-of-consciousness conversation between the two. It is a good habit to ask if you don't understand, so he asked directly.

"What are you talking about? Let's talk about another story called Cang Hai Hua. If you are interested, go and read it yourself."

Hu Ming had no interest in explaining the matter in detail. He answered casually and closed his eyes again. Soon, a light snoring sound was heard.

The sandstorm outside is getting more and more severe, and it won't stop in a short time. Wouldn't it be nice to catch up on some sleep during this time?
Didn't you see that grandson Ma Ri La fell asleep early with the bottle of wine in his arms?
Hu Ming's wild driving style just now didn't wake him up
By the time Hu Ming was woken up, it was already early the next morning.

The sandstorm stopped early, the sky returned to its deep blue color, and the sun was dazzling in the early morning...

It was as if the terrifying sandstorm yesterday was just an illusion.

But the car body half covered by sand clearly told everyone that it was not an illusion or a dream!
After pushing open the car door that was half buried in sand with difficulty, Hu Ming and his companions got out of the car and stretched themselves refreshed.

You know what, I slept quite comfortably in the sandstorm!
Taking out the bottled mineral water prepared in advance from the trunk to moisten his dry lips, Hu Ming looked around with interest. As far as the eye could see, it was a mud city built by ancient craftsmen using a special formula. Despite the erosion of wind and sand day after day, the original appearance of the city was still preserved to the greatest extent.

In a remote location about 200 meters away from Hu Ming and his companions’ car, a dozen or so cars were parked in a crooked convoy…

"Tsk, these guys are pretty lucky. I roughly calculated that this sandstorm only caused them to lose three vehicles..."

"And if you look closely, they parked outside the ruins. It's clear that they lost their way in the dust and had no choice but to stop and leave it to fate?"

Hu Ming stepped onto a low city wall and squatted on top of it, pretending not to notice Su Nan, who was slowly approaching with a fierce look on his face. He deliberately raised his voice and teased Wu Xie.

"...Uncle, I also like to take advantage of others' misfortunes, but it all depends on the situation, right?"

Wu Xie's mouth twitched slightly, and he pulled Li Cu, Wang Meng, and Ma Rila away from Hu Ming...

Didn't you see Su Nan's palms flying, with a butterfly knife like a real butterfly dancing among the flowers?
"Hu Ming... Professor Hu Ming, we lost five people in the sandstorm. Are you happy with the two truckloads of supplies and equipment?"

"Also, you're right, Professor Hu. I, Su Nan, am really lucky! Although we almost got lost, we still managed to get out of the sandstorm alive."

"We were even lucky enough to drive all the way to Gutongjing!"

Su Nan flipped over lightly and reached the top of the city wall. The butterfly knife in his hand flashed a dangerous cold light. His haggard face could not hide the anger and murderous intent that was faintly visible in his bloodshot eyes.

The refreshed look of Hu Ming and his companions formed a stark contrast to the dishevelled look of Su Nan and his group.

It is no wonder that Su Nan, who was already full of malice towards Hu Ming, could no longer suppress the murderous intent in his heart.

"Why, now that we have found Gutongjing, are you going to fight me here?"

"Indeed, you have so many people and it will be easy for you to deal with a few of us, so what are you waiting for?"

Hu Ming ignored the approaching butterfly knife, smiled slightly, and said without comment.

Below, Su Nan's men had already silently half-surrounded Hu Ming and his men, with their hands on their waists, fierce eyes on their faces.

Obviously, now that the rumored Gutongjing has been found, for Su Nan, Hu Ming and his group, as well as Boss Ma and his group, have lost their usefulness.

The time has come to reveal the real purpose!
".....Gutongjing? Professor Hu, stop teasing me!"

"If the rumored Gutongjing is so easy to find, then it doesn't deserve to be called Gutongjing!"

"What's more, according to records, Zhang Dafoye built a circle of modern buildings around Gutongjing. Is this Gutongjing?"

"Do you really think I'm a three-year-old?"

Seeing that the murderous intent in the air was becoming more and more intense, Su Nan suddenly put away his knife and stood side by side with Hu Ming, looking at the dilapidated ruins with a bright smile.

At the same time, Su Nan's men surrounded Boss Ma and his young model girlfriend who were moving steadily and walked slowly towards them.

It was as if the tense situation just now was just an illusion.

"Deterrence? Demonstration? What a boring move!"

Hu Ming was unmoved and even wanted to laugh. In his eyes, this behavior was just a child's prank.
