Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 626 Movement!

"So, these are... the mummies from the last century that you dug out from the truck and from under the sand. They're not the people you just killed?"

"And you're planning to bury these people?"

Li Cu looked at them in surprise and suspicion.

"What nonsense, isn't it? He was just killed?"

"How long do you think you slept? Even in this ghost environment, do you know how long it would take to turn into a mummy?"

Hu Ming felt a bit of a headache. This unfortunate child really had a psychological trauma.

How could you even say that these mummies were people who had just been killed?
Making trouble!
"Are you such a kind person? Collecting bodies for others?"

Li Cu still didn't quite believe it and looked at Hu Ming suspiciously.

No matter how you look at it, Hu Ming doesn't seem like such a kind person!
"So, these jobs were done by Wu Xie and his team."

Hu Ming shrugged and spoke frankly.

Originally, these people.
They were all the Buddha's subordinates back then.

And Master Buddha. To be honest, Hu Ming still has some respect for this kind of tyrant-like people. Unfortunately, those bad things eventually affected Hu Ming, and it was a pity that Hu Ming had any good feelings towards these people.

Still falling leaves return to their roots?
Hu Ming was kind enough not to burn everything in one go.

Speaking of which, Gutongjing is indeed not a good place.

It's not just the many dangers it contains.

But...

Hu Ming crushed a strand of sand and let it slip through his fingers.

There is no wind here!
There wasn't even the slightest wind!
It was as if a mysterious force had trapped all the air here, preventing it from flowing.

Or is it to collect all the winds that blow on ordinary days and release them all at a special moment to inspire a mysterious musical message?
"After all, these people are subordinates of our elders. After seeing this, there is no way we can let them continue to lie exposed in the sand."

"Although, this elder, because of his ambition, has caused great harm to us younger generations..."

Wu Xie smiled, and he and Wang Meng put all the corpses into the sand pit and covered them with sand.

Finally, people went to great lengths to erect a tombstone on the pile of sand.

"Speaking of which, Uncle Ming, I remember Third Uncle said that at that time it seemed that the Buddha had intended to show his good will to you and wanted you to take charge of the Nine Gates."

"It was around that time that the Buddha led people to secretly build Gutong here. Have you been here?"

After doing all this, Wu Xie's eyes flickered and he suddenly asked.

"First of all, in those years, I have been avoiding Master Buddha as much as possible. I didn't want to, nor did I dare to, see him."

"The Buddha was in charge of the Nine Gates at that time? Just think about it. He just wanted to drag me down with him. It was a matter of whether I could come back alive or not. At that time, I had just entered college and did not have much power or strength."

"But I have never been to Gutongjing before!"

Hu Ming looked around and said in a deep voice.

Later in his later years, perhaps the Buddha repented, or perhaps he gave up when he saw that there was no hope. At that time, the Buddha really wanted to hand over the Nine Gates to Hu Ming.

But in the final analysis, Hu Ming didn't want to meet Mr. Buddha from the beginning to the end.

Of course, Hu Ming, the corpse coffin, is happy to see it.…

"I see." Wu Xie nodded, showing that he understood. Let's put aside the old grudges for now.

"Who is this Buddha you are talking about?"

Li Cu scratched his head and asked curiously.

It always seemed that he understood every word these two people were talking, but when they put them together to form a sentence, he couldn't understand a single word!
"Children should not interrupt when adults are talking!"

"Now that you're awake, drink some water and eat something, then search the trucks on the shore to see if there are any bodies left behind, or any usable supplies or something like that."

Wu Xie waved his hands to indicate that he didn't want to explain the bloody history of the past at all.

"Trucks? So many?"

"Is it a coincidence? Why did these people park their trucks around the lake?"

Li Cu looked at the endless trucks surrounding the shore, and the corner of his mouth twitched. How long will it take to investigate this?
"Perhaps they encountered an unprecedented storm!"

Wu Xie began to deceive people in a serious manner, just like his Third Uncle whom he loved and hated all those years ago.

"Are there any other possibilities?"

Wang Meng also became interested and joined in.

"That's the worst possibility... They want to fence off the lake, fearing it will run away."

Hu Ming lit an eye and spoke mysteriously under the cover of smoke.

"Then...is there any chance we can get out alive now?"

Li Cu shrank back subconsciously and asked a very realistic question.

"Who knows? Maybe in the end the four of us will die here, dried up together, and become..."

“Natural artwork?”

Wu Xie grinned and made a bad joke.

He who keeps company with vermilion becomes red, and he who keeps company with ink becomes black…

Being with Fatty for so long, Wu Xie would sometimes make some jokes that were uncomfortable or inappropriate.

"Brother, are you sick? We are at a dead end, and you are still so calm?"

Li Cu was shocked. He really couldn't understand such a weird train of thought.

"What else can we do? Facing a desperate situation, crying and begging for help from God? Will it be of any use? It is better to have fun in the midst of adversity!"

"At least, we have successfully arrived at Gutongjing, right? What's there to be unhappy about?"

Hu Ming followed suit and teased Li Cu, the only one who was unaware of the situation.

Don’t mention it, this feeling of causing trouble for newbies is really pretty good!
"Have fun in misery? Just be happy!"

Li Cu snorted in disgust and felt a headache.

It's confirmed, these people are all psychopaths!
"Okay, let's stop chatting, eat something, and then start working. God knows where the ancient Tongjing is buried in this desert!"

Hu Ming patted Li Cu's shoulder and said meaningfully.

What Li Cu didn't notice was that when Hu Ming patted his shoulder, there was a little white powder on his palm.
That's Tianxin rock powder!
Hu Ming has already sensed some stirrings deep in the sand!
