Tomb Raider: Invincible Double Pupil, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

Chapter 200 Ghost Train
Xu Feng listened.

He hesitated for a moment, then took a few steps forward, his eyes fell on the ground where the three forks of the road met, and after observing for a long time, a smile appeared on his face: "I know which way to go."

He pointed to the left, which was the fork in the road Zhang Rishan and his companions had come out of: "We should go that way!"

The others followed his finger and looked towards the fork in the road to the left.

Zhang Rishan was puzzled: "How do you know that side is correct?"

Xu Feng smiled confidently: "It's very simple!"

"In fact, I noticed a detail before, that is the footprints. We saw the footprints of those monsters continuing to move forward, but the footprints disappeared when they reached the stone tablet. I paid special attention to it before, hoping to find their footprints to see which fork in the road they took, but unfortunately I didn't find it."

"I think either the monsters deliberately erased their footprints, or they moved forward at a very fast speed by trampling on the mountain walls on both sides, so I can't find their footprints."

"But this is not important."

"The important thing is that this gave me another clue."

"That's the middle fork in the road I took. When we found those giant mosquitoes, they were also sleeping. We accidentally woke them up. Old brother, you also found giant mosquitoes sleeping on the fork on the right. You accidentally woke them up."

"On the left side, Director Zhang, you heard the sound first and then discovered the giant mosquito."

"Why does this happen?"

Xu Feng asked back, looking at the people in front of him with burning eyes.

Both Zhang Rishan and Mr. Gu were extremely smart old foxes. They followed Xu Feng's train of thought and figured it out instantly after being reminded by him.

"You mean, those monsters took the left fork, and then they startled the giant mosquitoes resting inside, so when we went in, those giant mosquitoes were awake!"

Zhang Rishan said.

"more than!"

Mr. Gu also added: "You walked a long way before encountering the giant ants, which means that the giant mosquitoes have been chasing those monsters and must have chased them to the entrance to the next place.
"It means that the place where you encountered these giant mosquitoes is not far from the entrance to the next place."

Xu Feng looked at them in surprise. These two old foxes reacted too quickly.

"Yes, I think so too."

He concluded: "So, now we just need to go to the left and we should be able to find the entrance to the next place."

Then he sighed again: "But once we go in, the giant mosquitoes from the other two forks will chase us in. Then we will be attacked from both sides. Moreover, this time we are moving forward into the cave, not backward, which makes it much more difficult."

"Plus, we still don't know how many giant mosquitoes there are in the fork in the road. I'm afraid we won't have enough ammunition by then!"

"If there is something to protect us as we move forward, we will be much safer."

Mr. Gu also nodded: "You are right, and we don't know what dangers are ahead. It would be best if we could keep more ammunition."

Zhang Rishan hesitated for a moment and said, "I have a magical object that can protect us as we move forward."

"Ok?"

Zhang Rishan's words immediately attracted everyone's attention. Xu Feng asked curiously, "Do you have a magical object that can protect us from the past?" Zhang Rishan nodded hesitantly.

Xu Feng saw his hesitation: "What's wrong? What's the problem with this magical object?"

Zhang Rishan was silent for a moment, then said, "That sacred object... is a little weird."

"Weird?"

Xu Feng and Mr. Gu looked at each other. Zhang Rishan: "Forget it, saving your life is the most important thing now. Anyway, remember, if anything strange happens later, you should be careful."

Zhang Rishan's words cast a shadow over Xu Feng and Mr. Gu's hearts.

After Zhang Rishan finished speaking, he stepped back a distance.

Then he raised his hand and waved.

Under the shocked gaze of Xu Feng and others, a locomotive that was at least a hundred years old appeared before them.

The locomotive was covered in dust and dirt, as if it had just been dug out of the ground. The body of the train was covered in dust and dirt, almost covering up the color of the train itself.

The exterior of the train is basically covered with dust and dirt, and its inside cannot be seen clearly, but based on the appearance alone, it is easy to tell that this train is very old and of an old model. It was the most common type of old train when trains were just becoming popular a hundred years ago. Nowadays, you have to go to the Railway Bureau Museum to see it.

Xu Feng came forward and first looked inside the car window, but unfortunately, because it was covered with mud, he couldn't see clearly inside.

He paused, then stretched out his right hand and slowly touched the car body. It felt cold, like touching ice.

He used a little force to wipe off some of the dirt on the car body, revealing the body inside.

The exterior paint has almost completely peeled off, but there are still some mottled paint marks, and you can tell it is military green, the standard color of vintage trains of that period.

There was severe rust everywhere, as if the car body could be pierced through with a single poke. In Xu Feng's opinion, it had taken at least several decades of rust to reach this level.

"Why does it look so familiar?"

Xu Feng looked at the train with a confused look on his face.

"My Ye, where did you dig out this locomotive? It looks like a pile of useless junk. The scrapped cars in the junkyard look better than it!"

The fat man who was ruthlessly shooting the giant mosquito turned his head to look at the locomotive and shouted.

Zhang Rishan: "Don't worry about this. Although it looks very old, it can still be driven!"

"Are you kidding me? It's still in this condition, and you can still drive it? It's probably older than my grandfather. I doubt I can tear it apart with just a little force."

The fat man complained mercilessly.

Not only the fat man, but everyone else looked at this old antique locomotive, and they all swallowed involuntarily, with expressions of surprise and doubt on their faces.

Mr. Gu plucked up his courage, stretched out his hand, wiped the dust and dirt off the car window glass, and wanted to see what was inside the front of the car, but he found that the inside of the window was pitch black and he could not see anything, as if the window was blocked by something.

"what!"

Xu Feng suddenly couldn't help but exclaim.

He looked at Zhang Rishan in disbelief: "Could this locomotive be the ghost train that Zhang Dafo found in Nanhu that year?"

Xu Feng finally remembered the origin of this locomotive.

Isn’t this the ghost train that appeared at the beginning of the first episode of the TV series “The Lost Tomb”?
This was a military train of the Sakura people, full of dead bodies. The entire car was welded shut. It appeared out of nowhere at Nanhu Station. All the bodies in the car were lying face down with exaggerated expressions.

Later, Zhang Qishan found Qi Tiezui, who was proficient in the Eight Calculations. Qi Tiezui was certainly not famous for nothing. He found out that the secret of the military train was in the last carriage.

Then the whistle coffin was discovered.

As for the origin of the ghost train, it was finally discovered that it was related to the Sakura people, who wanted to seize the meteorite copper hidden in the mines outside Nanhu City.
