Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 920 The two disappeared!

"Amin, watch out!"

Hu Bayi stood behind, watching Hu Ming walk down the steps with unease.

The fat man quickly raised his powerful flashlight to illuminate the dim surroundings.

Hu Ming walked down the stone steps alone. Looking at the strange magic array on the ground, he felt a chill run down his spine.

What exactly is going on here?

With this question in his mind, he discovered that countless wisps of eerie blue will-o'-the-wisps had unknowingly risen up in front of him.

"Such a strong yin energy!"

Hu Ming sniffed the air, and his extraordinary senses instantly detected the approaching aura of death, almost making him vomit on the spot.

"Whoohoo-"

These emerging will-o'-the-wisps hovered around Hu Ming, following him closely as he moved forward.

Hu Bayi and Fatty, standing behind, were both puzzled by what they saw.

"What the hell is this?"

The fat man nervously scratched his head, then yelled in frustration, "Is this another thing those brats made?"

Hu Bayi looked at the children under the surrounding stone tablets and saw these thin figures with their hands placed in prayer in front of their chests.

"It looks like their handiwork, but these will-o'-the-wisps don't seem to have any malicious intent. On the contrary, they're helping Amin in their own way!"

Hu Bayi shared his immediate impressions.

The fat man spread his hands, looking on with suspicion.

"It's really suspicious that these kids are being so kind now!"

Hu Bayi said with a solemn expression, "Now we can only take it one step at a time and see what happens. We must trust Amin."

As Hu Ming walked through this eerie formation, looking at the ghostly fire surrounding him, he felt a strange sense of peace.

"Are these little devils helping me?"

As Hu Ming pondered this, he became increasingly wary.

"In other words, there must be some extremely dangerous element within this formation, which is why this ghost fire is there to protect it in advance."

Even as he analyzed this terrifying outcome, he didn't stop walking and continued straight ahead.

"Waaaaah—"

A loud wail came from behind Hu Ming.

Standing on the steps, Hu Bayi and Fatty looked over immediately.
Suddenly, a skinny old man appeared on Hu Ming's back, clinging to him and wailing with tears in his eyes.

"What the hell is this thing?"

Hu Bayi was shocked, while the fat man instinctively wanted to remind Hu Ming to notice the evil spirit clinging to him from behind.

At this moment, all the children behind the stone tablet shook their heads at Huba and the fat man.

Hu Bayi suddenly realized and said, "Are they trying to remind us that we can't let Hu Ming turn back now?"

Hu Ming suddenly felt a heavy and cold sensation behind him, as if he were carrying a heavy iron block on his back, making him have to exert a little effort with every step he took.

"what is this?"

He instinctively wanted to turn around and look, but just then, the fat man's anxious voice came.

"Amin, whatever you do, don't look back!"

"Ok?"

Hu Ming was taken aback by these words!
Hu Bayi stood on the stone steps and shouted, "Aming, don't look back, don't stop, keep walking forward. Don't worry about anything, just pretend nothing happened, and don't use your body's bloodline power." Hearing this, Hu Ming, whose steps had been gradually slowing down, suddenly continued to walk forward with great effort.

"Waaaaah—"

The old ghost clinging to Hu Ming's back then deliberately revealed his ugly old face and let out a chilling howl.

Hu Ming felt goosebumps rise on the back of his neck, but he also clearly understood that he had to heed Hu Bayi and the others' advice and not turn around to look.

"Damn it, my bloodline power has weakened for some reason, otherwise I wouldn't be in such a passive position!"

Hu Ming wasn't too afraid, after all, he still had quite a few treasures on him, so he wasn't worried!
Standing on the stone steps, Hu Bayi and his companions saw the old ghost clinging to Hu Ming's back. At that moment, the old ghost took advantage of the situation and stretched out his thin arm to grab Hu Ming's neck repeatedly.

"This damn thing is outrageous!"

The fat man was so angry that he was about to jump down on the spot, but luckily Hu Bayi reacted quickly and grabbed the impatient guy.

"Fatty, don't go down there and make things worse! Besides this old ghost, there might be other ghosts around!"

Hu Bayi reprimanded him sternly.

The fat man clenched his fists anxiously: "What should we do now?"

Hu Bayi looked around at the stone tablets and said.

"Don't worry, Amin, they have plenty of backup plans."

"The evil spirit behind me is trying every means to make me turn around so that it can attack me directly."

Hu Ming calmly analyzed the current situation in his mind.

"call--"

The will-o'-the-wisps floating around Hu Ming suddenly moved closer, as if they wanted to merge into Hu Ming's body.

"Waaaah—"

The old ghost clinging to Hu Ming's back saw the approaching will-o'-the-wisp and let out a terrified scream before disappearing like a wisp of green smoke.

Hu Ming instantly felt a sense of relief behind him, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

This arduous journey, carrying the weight of a small mountain on one's back, is truly a torturous experience.

He looked up and realized that he was less than seven steps away from the crystal coffin.

"Amin, be careful! The will-o'-the-wisps that were protecting you have all disappeared!"

Hu Bayi, standing on the stone steps, raised his hand and loudly reminded them.

Hu Ming nodded slightly. He now clearly knew that the evil spirit from before had already used up one of his trump cards to save his life.

"From now on, I can only rely on myself!"

He clenched his fists tightly, but strode forward with great enthusiasm.

Six steps, five steps, Hu Ming was getting closer and closer to the crystal coffin within the formation.

He could even see the sleeping body beneath the surface of the crystal coffin.

We're almost there!

Hu Ming arrived in front of the crystal coffin. The smooth process, where nothing happened, allowed him to relax his tense nerves.

"Wait, when did Fatty and Old Hu go silent?"

He realized that he hadn't heard the fat man and his friends' voices behind him anymore.

Are they alright?

Hu Ming couldn't help but feel worried.

He subconsciously turned his head, only to find that the fat man and Old Hu were no longer on the stone steps behind him!
