Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 685: How long will you continue to act...

Even though this was not the first time they had come to this area, trekking through the snow-capped mountains covered by glaciers was still not a pleasant experience.

After all, none of Hu Ming and his companions had learned how to enjoy the natural scenery in this almost uninhabited area of ​​snow-capped mountains.

Hu Ming, Wu Xie and Fatty are not pretentious people. They admit that they are just vulgar people.

Rather than staying in this hellhole to appreciate the so-called natural scenery, they would rather stay at home, drink wine, brag and chat.

Even just lying in bed or on the sofa and daydreaming would be much better than this.

However, the two people traveling together, "His Majesty the First Emperor" and Lan Ting were very interested.

The group did not stay long in the outpost village. After just a night's rest, they headed for Changbai Mountain without stopping.

The time is very close...

"arrive."

At this time, it was already the second day of our expedition into the Changbai Snow Mountain.

All of the people in the group were wrapped up like dumplings and trudged through the snow-capped mountains with difficulty.

Arriving at a familiar valley, Hu Ming wiped away the large patch of snow in front of him, revealing the black dragon sculpture hidden underneath, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Oh, looking at this style, is it probably a trace left behind by the country that the tomb keeper of King Wannu ruled in the past?"

"His Majesty the First Emperor" looked at the dragon sculpture with great interest.

Hu Ming smiled but said nothing. He probably understood the conversation along the way.

This "His Majesty the First Emperor" had already set his sights on this place when the bronze door began to be cast.

But during the past five thousand years, this "Majesty the First Emperor" has been quietly paying attention to everything, looking forward to the birth of "his own kind", but has never intervened.

Signaling the curious Lan Ting to loosen his hand, he stretched his arm into the dragon's mouth, grasped the cold iron chain, and pulled it slightly with force.

Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound.

The "small snow mound" in front of him began to shake violently, and large pieces of snow and ice cracked apart. The secret door buried deep inside opened, revealing a pitch-black entrance half-hidden by the snow.

There was a pale white mist mixed with a faint smell of sulfur and a refreshing warmth slowly drifting out.

After passing through this secret passage, the miracle of nature, the huge canyon crack hidden deep underground suddenly comes into view.

In the dim space, the huge bronze door at the end of the canyon is unusually conspicuous.

only…

"Uncle Ming, Fatty, have you noticed that something seems to be wrong here~?"

When he came here, Wu Xie instinctively noticed something different and said in confusion with a frown.

"The environment has changed."

"Since we entered the secret passage and passed through the hot springs, the temperature here has not dropped, but has continued to rise slowly."

"Now, the temperature in this place has reached that of early summer."

Hu Ming seemed to have expected this. He smiled faintly, took off his cotton coat and threw it aside.

Now, the ten-year period is about to arrive, and a light mist has begun to spread gradually in the canyon. The melodious sound of horns can be heard faintly from afar.

Wu Xie and Fatty, who had seen all this before, were not surprised.

However, the two of them still remember clearly that although the weather here was much better than the ice and snow outside, the temperature was far from being as warm as it is now, and it was even a little hot!
Undoubtedly, this is not a normal phenomenon. "Because it is the end of the world, when everything will return to nothingness, it is not surprising that some abnormal phenomena appear."

On the contrary, "His Majesty the First Emperor" who came here from the future seemed very confident and probably knew some secrets.

"And look carefully over there, that door is glowing!"

Hu Ming pointed at the bronze door and said softly.

Looking closely, it seemed that just now, the bronze door began to undergo some unusual changes, with a faint light flickering.

At the same time, suddenly, the bronze door trembled and a narrow gap as wide as one person quietly opened, and a figure seemed to float out of it in the mist.

This guy can be considered an old acquaintance of Hu Ming. On previous occasions, it was this guy who brought Hu Ming into the world behind the portal.

But this time, he did not come from a distance, but walked out of the door.

Hu Ming pinched his nose, chuckled, and looked at the soldiers with some undisguised malice in his eyes!
This guy...

Not only Hu Ming, but also the little brother, both of them had wanted to kill him for a long time.

"...Come in. That gentleman and Zhang Qiling have been waiting for you for a long time. The timing is just right. Perhaps, you will see a scene that will shock you."

The soldier in armor and armed with sharp weapons showed a hint of helplessness on his shriveled face, and he whispered in the ancient language.

Obviously, he was not a fool. At least, he could still discern the malice in Hu Ming's eyes.

Before turning around and going in, the soldier's gaze lingered for a long time on the "His Majesty the First Emperor" with a smile on his face. He noticed that something seemed wrong with this man.

but…

It doesn’t matter. At this point in time, for people like them, no matter how wonderful the existence is, it can’t attract the slightest interest in them.

In the world inside the door, some incredible changes are taking place.

The familiar dark void passage had now become unrecognizable.

Huge bronze cracks were densely packed all around, and the dim light reflected on the people, giving them an ancient color.

Hu Ming could only say that bronze...is different from emerald green after all, and this is his only consolation.

"You broke the rules, Hu Ming. Even at the end of the world, you shouldn't bring in irrelevant people."

The soldiers and Hu Ming walked side by side in the front row, their eyes glancing at Lan Ting who was following them curiously and the unfathomable "Majesty the First Emperor".

As for Wu Xie and Fatty.
The two were tragically abandoned in the canyon outside the gate, even though they were very curious about everything inside the gate.

"Well... I'm not really a human being right now. Of course, if this brings you any trouble, Hu Ming, I'll leave first, okay?"

Lan Ting was extremely considerate and did not want to cause any trouble to Hu Ming.

However, Hu Ming told her that there seemed to be a way to deal with her current embarrassing situation inside the door.

"I brought her here, so I will naturally be responsible. As for the rules, or the wishes of that adult, I will explain them to him."

"As for this one..."

Hu Ming grabbed Lan Ting who wanted to return the same way, and looked at the leisurely and contented "His Majesty the First Emperor".

"How long are you going to keep pretending, Zhao Zheng? Now that you're here, you can probably take off your hypocritical face, right?"

"Are you addicted to role-playing games?"

"The Qin Shi Huang that I know of is not someone who can be replaced by just anyone. It is even more impossible for him to watch the Qin Dynasty fall! Even people like us are not as good as him!"
