Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 252
With the guidance of those five people, Tofu and I mastered the technique, and were not confused by the canvas in front of us. We closed our eyes and ran towards the direction of the voice in our memory.After a while, I smelled the smell of gunpowder on the tip of my nose, and I knew I had arrived. I opened my eyes and saw that the surrounding canvas was almost full of bullet holes, some of which were smashed, but there was no one there.

Where have people gone?
Tofu and I were back to back, observing the surroundings vigilantly, not daring to take it lightly.Immediately afterwards, I found something very strange. Except for no one, there was not even a little blood on the ground here.Tofu lowered his voice and said, "Old Chen, tell me, you shot so hard before, why didn't you see any blood in this place? Could it be that they were shooting ghosts?"

Speaking of ghosts, I thought of the five people who were hung up, and the pair of feet hanging in the air. I couldn't help but feel a little bit in my heart, and I said to myself: Did they also encounter the same thing as the archaeological team?No, they were probably dragged up there too.I immediately took out my claws, and told Tofu that I would go to the beam of the house again. While talking, I told him about the abnormal state of the five archaeological team's hanging corpses.

Tofu was shocked when he heard that, so he turned on the flashlight and shone a light on it, saying: "We went up before, and there was nothing on it except the beams. Could it be that you suspect that those extra feet... have been hiding on it all the time?" ?” I nodded, and said, “Zhuan Rui and the others have probably already been captured. If we don’t hurry up, we’re afraid they will follow in the footsteps of the archaeological team.”

After finishing speaking, without much delay, he flew out the probing claws, followed the rope, exerted strength with his arms, and reached the mid-air with three strokes, five divisions and two divisions.It wasn't until this time that I discovered that there were some wooden sticks with the thickness of steel pipes connected to the bottom of these beams, and the cloth sails were hung on these wooden sticks.

I climbed up to the beam and looked around with a flashlight, but it was still the same as when I and Tofu came, it was empty and there was nothing, even the digger with the head of a human head went nowhere.

Gu Dameimei and her party are full of firepower, and their skills are not weak. What happened to them that they disappeared so strangely?
According to the archaeological team, this hall is a maze arranged with cloth sails. Could it be that Gu Wenmin and the others left this place after shooting?If this is the case, it will be too difficult to find someone in this maze.Searching around made no progress, I could only get off the beam, and the tofu below was waiting anxiously, and asked if there was anything wrong as soon as I saw me.

I said: "If there is a situation, can I still stand here?"

Tofu raised his head when he heard the words, and muttered in his mouth: "It's over, it's over, Miss Gu is such a good person, she is gentle and understanding, she is skilled and kind, and I was expecting her to be my sister-in-law. That's right, that female devil Xiao Jing will torture me in the future."

I was so angry that I said: "Don't be crowed, Gu Damei is auspicious and celestial, how can it be so easy to get tricked. Zhuanrui's skill is by no means inferior to mine. They can be called a strong combination. As long as we are alive, they can't die." After some discussion between the two of us, we figured that they probably had moved their positions, so we called their names and opened the canvas to search, hoping to find some clues.

At this moment, Tofu opened one of the cloth sails, and suddenly said: "Hey, look, Lao Chen, here is a broken kimchi jar."

Kimchi jar?Why is there a kimchi jar in this place?I poked my head out to take a look, but found that in front of the tofu, there were several huge pieces of pottery, which were black in color, like a broken vat.Inside the broken vat, there was still a mass of milk-like substance flowing all over the floor, exuding a faint fragrance.

Tofu stepped forward, knelt down and smelled it, and said, "It doesn't seem to be kimchi, it smells like green tea." After a while of kimchi, and a while of green tea, I said, "You think this is a restaurant? Don't touch this thing, it looks like It looks like it was just broken." I took a closer look, and suddenly found that there were some things like plant roots in the pile of milk-like substances.I have never heard of such a thing, let alone seen it, and I felt confused for a while.

When I was wondering, I suddenly heard a very small voice in my ears, as if someone was talking across the room, not only I heard it, but also Tofu, he listened with his ears upright and said: "It seems that someone is talking." Where is the voice coming from calling our names?"

It seems that this is not my auditory hallucination. Immediately, we both concentrated on listening to the faint voice. After a while, our eyes focused on the top at the same time.

Yes, still above the beams.

Tofu looked at me suspiciously, obviously wondering whether I had searched carefully before, and asked, "Are you sure there is nothing there? Is there something I missed?"

I shook my head and said, "You think everyone is like you, and you never worry about doing things? I checked, and it's empty, and there's nothing... No!" Halfway through the sentence, I suddenly remembered, There is indeed one place missing: the corner top!

In ancient houses, the roof is triangular, and the lower side supports the beams. There is a large gap between the beams and the roof. This gap is called a corner roof in some places.The closer the corner tops are to the middle, the larger the gap, and the larger the building, the wider the corner tops will be.

I've been searching around the beams before, but I didn't pay attention to the corner tops, because although the corner tops are large, most of them are empty.But this place is different. The scale of this treasure hall is extremely large, and the top of the corner cannot be seen at a glance. Could it be that there are actually some things on the beams?
Thinking of this, I greeted Tofu immediately, and the two of them went up to the beam for the third time, adjusted the two flashlights to the maximum, and shot at the corners of the head one after another.After the light was turned on, at first glance, there was nothing on it, it was pitch black, and it seemed that the roof had been seen.But I am a keen observation person, and it didn't take long to find out that something was wrong, because the roof was under the light, and there was lacquer light, that is, the light reflected by the porcelain.

After careful identification, sure enough, it is not the roof, but a cover-up. On top of our heads, there are countless large vats painted with black paint. I saw the roof myself.

From this point of view, the broken vat on the ground must have fallen from it.These large vats must have been placed here from the beginning of construction, and they will not be dropped sooner or later, but it is obviously problematic to drop them at this time.Tofu said: "Could it be that Miss Gu and the others have alarmed something?"

I shook my head and said, "It's too early to draw conclusions. The sound is coming from above. They must be above." I opened a hole about two people wide, which seems to be where the big tank was.After the big tank fell, there was naturally a gap in that position.

Immediately, Tofu and I bit the flashlight in our mouths, retracted our penis claws and hung it on the top of the corner, then climbed up with hands and feet, and we reached the top of the corner in a short time. The large tanks are not covered.Tofu looked into the nearest big tank and said, "There's a lot of milk, I'm hungry."

I took a look, and sure enough, each big vat contained a milky white liquid exuding a fragrance, and it was filled with countless large vats.

I said: "I also really want to know what's in this tank, why don't you take a sip and try it." Tofu was unwilling instead, and said: "You know that you can treat me as a guinea pig, so I won't be fooled." After saying that, he shrank his body, stepped on the wooden beam at the top of the corner, and shouted in a low voice: "Beauty Gu? I'm Xiaodou, where are you? Perverted Chen and I came to rescue you?"

I ignored Tofu's screaming, and listened with my ears sideways. Yes, the sound was getting closer and closer. I even wondered if they were hiding in a large tank.

At this moment, Doufu stepped forward suddenly, and suddenly asked something inexplicable, saying, "Old Chen, if milk and eggs are placed in front of you at the same time, what will happen to you?"

I said: "I will serve dinner."

Tofu pointed to the front and said, "Then you can eat." He turned slightly to one side, revealing the empty path ahead.I was also dumbfounded when I saw it. I saw that in front of us, there was a thing like a shelled egg. Of course, its size was not ordinary, it was about the size of a washbasin. The most important thing is, It's still bouncing around.

Tofu swallowed and said, "Old Chen, can you tell me why it moves?"

I hesitated and said, "Maybe the chick inside is about to hatch." As soon as the words fell, the weird white egg rolled towards me and the tofu with a grunt.We didn't know what it was, so we naturally didn't dare to touch it casually, and hurriedly backed away. While rolling, cracks appeared on the surface of the egg, just like the egg white on the outside of an egg that has been peeled off its shell.

In a blink of an eye, Tofu and I had retreated to the bottom, behind us was the hole we climbed up when we came, and there was no way to go back. In desperation, I could only pull out the shovel and prepare to fight this weird white egg. But at this moment, the white egg suddenly stopped rolling.

What does it want to do?
