Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 675 Carnival tonight!
In the ancient city of Gutongjing, Hu Ming, Zhang Rishan and Lanpao were sitting cross-legged on the ground facing each other, while Liang Wan was sleeping quietly beside them.

A bonfire illuminated the dim space, and next to the people were mountains of gold and silver.

However, the treasure that was enough to drive the world crazy could not move these three people at all.

At this moment, the three of them followed the firelight and stared intently at an irregular, deep black, fist-sized stone that Jiangnan was playing with in his hand.

This is what Hu Ming gained after he finally smashed the statue.

The three of them had been studying this thing for several hours, but still could not find anything special about the stone in front of them.

But before that, when it was taken out from the statue, the faint light flickering on it showed that this thing was the core component of the faceless statue!
"…trouble.…".

Hu Ming sighed, gave up the idea of ​​studying this thing thoroughly in a short period of time, and put it into his personal space.

Zhang Rishan and Lanpao showed regretful expressions at the same time.

For people like them, worldly things are unlikely to move their hearts. Only unknown things can arouse their great interest.

"This is just my unexpected gain. Don't even think about it. Jedi will never give it to you. Forget about it!"

Hu Ming glanced at the two of them and snorted.

"At least, can you tell us what to take out from below? The faint light flickering on it shows that this thing is the core component of the faceless statue!"

"trouble……".

Hu Ming sighed, gave up the idea of ​​studying this thing thoroughly in a short period of time, and put it into the system space.

Zhang Rishan and Lanpao showed regretful expressions at the same time.

For people like them, worldly things are unlikely to move their hearts. Only unknown things can arouse their great interest.

"This is just my unexpected gain. Forget it. I will never give it to you. Forget it!"

Hu Ming glanced at the two of them and snorted.

"At least, can you tell us the secrets of the place below? No need to be too detailed, just a general summary will be fine. You know, we, the people of Kambalo, have been pursuing those ancient traces for a long, long time."

"But even to this day, what we know is still limited, just some clues..."

The blue robe asked tentatively.

"dream!"

Hu Ming's answer consisted of just two simple and crude words.

"…Forget it, things here are over, it's almost time for me to go back and report. I won't go to see Wu Xie, please say hello to him for me…"

The man in blue robe sighed, knowing that nothing could be done, he stood up, patted his butt, turned around and left.

Hu Ming did not try to keep him, but just watched the man in blue robe leave with Zhang Yueshan.

As for the dangers inside Gutongjing, those are for ordinary people. For people like them, it cannot be said to be as easy as walking on flat ground, but it is not much either.

If it is said that Lanpao really fell in Gutongjing...

Hu Ming and Zhang Rishan swore that they would never die of laughter.

"What are your plans next?"

"You and Wu Xie's plan is almost complete. Wu Xie has already figured out the situation of those rotten guys outside." "You have also figured out this place and the current base camp of the Wang family. So, when will we close the net and end this operation?"

Zhang Rishan asked softly.

"It's three o'clock in the afternoon now, so there's still time to get some sleep. By evening, it will be time to close the net."

Hu Ming glanced at his watch and said firmly.

"Do you want me to help you?"

"OK!"

“…I thought you would refuse…”

"Are you kidding me? Am I stupid for not using the free combat power? Besides, you are the Admiral of the Nine Gates and the current President of the Nine Gates Association. Isn't this your responsibility?"

Hu Ming looked at Zhang Yueshan, whose mouth was twitching, with confidence.

Although Zhang Yueshan was only passive in this plan, he is the boss of the Nine Sects now, right?
If he doesn't do anything, who will?
Standing on the sidelines and watching the show? You are dreaming!
Decades have passed since Zhang Qishan's men withdrew from Gutongjing, and Gutongjing has become bustling again.

The Li family, part of the Huo family, the Qi family, and even a part of the Xie family who were ready to make a move because of Xiaohua's "death", had all gathered in the white sea of ​​sand at this time.

The dense bonfires and searchlights illuminated the night clearly.

Several groups of people gathered together, with a few leaders gathered together, discussing something heatedly.

There is no need to think about it. Even though they haven't gone down yet, these people are already discussing the distribution of the treasures in Gutongjing fiercely.

In their opinion, since they have come to Gutongjing with so much hardship, there is no reason why they cannot find the amazing treasure in Gutongjing with the combined efforts of several parties!
"I really don't know whether to say they are stupid or just daydreaming...they are like trapped beasts in a cage, and they don't even know there are too many little mice hiding among them..."

"Although I am not a member of the Nine Gates, I know very well that what Hu Ming said is right. One bad apple spoils the whole barrel. If we want to pull the Nine Gates out of the quagmire, we have to be ruthless and cut the Gordian knot."

"The people who come here...according to the current criminal law of the Celestial Empire, they are all idiots who should be shot! What era is it now? Are you still dreaming about the golden age of the Nine Gates?"

"We are living in a society ruled by law, yet they still dare to resell the funerary objects abroad and forge them. Do they really think the people above can ignore them forever? If they are allowed to continue, they will drag down the entire Nine Sects sooner or later."

Under the sand layer, in the passage closest to the sand layer of the outer buildings of Gutongjing, Hei Xiazi leaned against the wall, listening to the movement above his head, his voice faint.

Beside him was Li Cu, who looked like he had lost all hope in life.

"I'm not interested in the Nine Gates or not. Anyway, according to the agreement between Hu Ming and Wu Xie, after tonight, all this will have nothing to do with me."

"But, Blind Man, forget about Hu Ming, but when did Wu Xie sneak away?"

"Wu Xie is fine, but why did Liang Wan suddenly disappear? Why aren't you worried or surprised at all?"

"I wonder if you bastards are planning to use me as cannon fodder. Are you planning to sacrifice me tonight?
Compared to three days ago, Li Cu, who had not eaten or slept well, looked extremely haggard now, with deep dark circles under his eyes. He looked like a poor child who had been abused.

"You're overthinking it. How is that possible? In our line of work, loyalty is the most important thing. I'll naturally do what I promised you."

The blind man adjusted his sunglasses, turned his head and spoke softly.

"Why would you turn your head away? Are you lying to me? You must be lying to me, right?"

Li Cu was immediately shocked, and his heart went cold, thinking that his future was bleak.
"At least one thing I can assure you is that after tonight, you will be reunited with your father and live your previous peaceful life."

"As for tonight, there will be a grand carnival!"

With his ear pressed against the wall, listening to some subtle and undetectable noises mixed in with the chaotic noises above, Hei Xia Zi's mouth corners curled up.
