Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 622 He is... going to kill someone again!
The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is extremely large. It is unbearably hot during the day and extremely cold at night.

It was already around seven o'clock in the evening, and the sky was gradually getting dark. It was exactly the four hours that Hu Ming mentioned!
"."

At this moment, Li Cu woke up slowly and looked much better.

"Wow, our little master finally woke up? I carried you on my back for the whole afternoon, and my old bones almost fell apart!"

Wu Xie perked up, let go of Li Cu, and stretched his aching waist.

Wu Xie is a normal person after all, completely different from a monster like Hu Ming. This afternoon, he was exhausted!
"I'm still alive. Where are we now? Gutongjing?"

After drinking a bottle of water, Li Cu gradually regained consciousness. He looked around and sighed as if he had just left.

"Gutongjing? It's too early!"

"But, we're almost there. We don't need to walk for a few more days. We'll be able to reach Gutongjing tomorrow!"

Rolling up his sleeves and feeling the air which was obviously much more humid, Wu Xie said mysteriously.

"What's the meaning?"

Li Cu was stunned and asked.

"What I mean is that our Professor Hu and Boss Wu have concealed a lot of things, a lot!"

"This is the lake you are looking for, right? I have seen it in front of me!"

"You have always said that only by finding Haizi can we enter Gutongjing. Now, Haizi has been found. Hu Ming, where is Gutongjing!?"

Su Nan came over, playing with a sharp dagger, his eyes flickering, and asked softly.

"What Wu Xie said is correct. Now that we have found Haizi, we will definitely reach Gutongjing tomorrow. There is no doubt about that."

"But speaking of which, Su Nan, after arriving in Gutongjing, it's about time for us to go our separate ways, right?"

"I'm very curious. After we arrive at Gutongjing, with so many of you, I don't think you will let us go. So have you figured out how to deal with us?"

"Will you give us a quick death, or let us die in agony?"

Hu Ming seemed not to notice Su Nan's complicated and tangled tone, and said with a smile.

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere here suddenly became weird.

Instinctively sensing that something was wrong, Li Cu subconsciously rushed behind Wu Xie.

Wu Xie and Wang Meng looked at the two people who were talking calmly.

As for Ma Ri La, he took two steps back holding the bottle of wine, indicating that he did not want to get involved in the open and secret struggles between the two groups.

"Professor Hu, you are joking. I think I know you very well. With your skills, even if I have a gun and men, it would still be difficult for me to deal with you."

"Besides, in your eyes, am I, Su Nan, such a person without any friendship? We have been through thick and thin together for so many days, so we can be considered friends, right?"

Su Nan remained silent for a long time with an unclear smile on his face. Suddenly, he smiled, put away the dagger, and patted Hu Ming's shoulder openly, looking like a good brother.

It was precisely because Su Nan knew Hu Ming too well that he was extremely wary of him. Ten years ago, the elite of the Wang family came out, but were annihilated by Hu Ming in the Kingdom of Queen Mother of the West by unknown means!
She knew that there was no other way to deal with a master like Hu Ming except to use a pile of human lives!
At the very least, when she and her men faced Hu Ming, they could only ensure peace.

To put it bluntly, Su Nan now lacks the capital to overturn the table!
What a pity. The plan went wrong and we encountered Haizi before we reached the ambush site in the desert.…

Su Nan sighed inwardly with regret.

If it was just Wu Xie, none of this would matter, but Hu Ming...Su Nan didn't dare to take the risk!
Gutongjing, we'll see when the time comes!
"Okay, everyone has worked hard for several days. We finally found the lake. Let's not talk about Gutongjing for now. Let's set up camp here tonight, have a good rest, and recharge our batteries."

"As for Gutongjing, I believe in your judgment, Professor Hu. If we find Haizi, we can find Gutongjing. I hope you can lead us to Gutongjing smoothly tomorrow!"

In a moment, Su Nan had weighed the pros and cons and decided to stop for the time being.

The most important thing now is to find the method to find Gutongjing!
"Correction, it was Wu Xie who said that finding Haizi would lead to finding Gutongjing, not me!"

Hu Ming nodded indifferently and corrected. As for tomorrow...

We'll talk about it if Su Nan can find them after he "wakes up" tomorrow!
While Su Nan was leading his team to set up camp on the spot, Hu Ming and his men strolled to the side of the lake.

There was no taboo at all. Several grown men simply took off all their clothes and jumped into the lake to take a nice bath.

It is worth mentioning that the sand layer near the lake is filled with little finger-sized gold grains visible to the naked eye!
Looking closely, these gold grains are not gold ore washed out from the ground by water, but artificially smelted gold sand!
"Since ancient times, Haizi has been inseparable from the mysterious Gutongjing. Haizi is the only way to reach that mysterious place, Gutongjing."

"It is rumored that there are mountains of gold and silver in Gutongjing, and there are treasures beyond imagination. These gold sands must be what Haizi brought out from Gutongjing."

"Li Cu, do you think there is a lot of gold sand here?"

Looking at Su Nan's men frantically picking up gold sand on the shore, Hu Ming whispered.

"A lot! The desert on the shore is full of golden sand! All this golden sand is enough to make a person a multi-millionaire!"

Li Cu responded in a deep voice.

Gold is always a hard currency in any era!
"It is worth mentioning that compared to the treasures in Gutongjing, these gold sands are not worth mentioning at all!"

"How about it, kid, are you interested? Just take some, it's enough for you to live a carefree life for ten lifetimes!"

Wu Xie smiled slightly and asked softly.

"..I'm moved! But I know very well that no matter how much money you have, you have to live to spend it."

"Wu Xie, Hu Ming, tell me honestly, you know so much about Gutongjing, have you ever been inside it?"

"From the looks of you, you don't seem like the type of people who would rather live than live. Why are you wasting so much effort and going through so many dangers?

Li Cu smiled bitterly. He still remembered his identity and knew that he was a hostage. Was it really that easy to get the money?
What's more... I don't know why, after coming here, Li Cu always has a frightening feeling, always feeling that these gold sands are too hot to handle!
"No, we have never been in there. I didn't lie to you about that. As for what we are going to do in Gutongjing... you will know!"

Hu Ming smiled slightly and suddenly walked towards the shore.

"I'm done washing, you guys soak for a while, I have to do my work."

After getting his clothes on the boat, Hu Ming walked towards the camp without looking back.

"Wait, the water is too cold at night, let's go back together."

Subconsciously, Li Cu also wanted to go ashore.

"Mr. Ming has something to do, why are you following him to join in the fun? Are you trying to save your life?"

But Wang Meng grabbed him and shook his head!
"What?"

Li Cu didn't understand and said blankly.

"Kid, I don't know how important you are to Erye and Wu Xie, but you don't understand these two people at all. They are really dangerous!"

"Look carefully, what is in Second Master's hand? As for the rest...do you need me to explain it to you?"

Ma Rila, who had rarely participated in Hu Ming and his friends' affairs, sighed, pointed at Hu Ming and explained softly.

"That"

Li Cu squinted his eyes and looked over, took a breath of cold air, his hair stood on end and his scalp felt numb.

Bang bang bang!!!
"He's going to kill someone?"

Listening to the deafening gunshots beside his ears, Li Cu said in a trembling voice.

"To be precise, the time to clear the area is almost up. If we delay any further, many people will lose their patience, and that could lead to serious consequences!"

"Moreover, Su Nan and the others are absolutely not allowed to enter Gutongjing. At least not now!"

Wu Xie sat naked on the blood-stained shore, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and said expressionlessly.
