Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 702 Departure
Originally, I wanted to keep the lazy guy for a while longer, but now I just want him to go back to his lair quickly and bring me the thing that the dumb left.But this kid seemed to be addicted to living, he yawned after speaking, and fell lazily on the sofa, looking happy like a fairy.

He was watching TV with the volume turned down very low, and I could hardly hear what was being said on the TV, so the whole room seemed very quiet. If it weren't for the bright lights, it would really make people feel as if they were still in a fight.

As a last resort, I had no choice but to open my mouth and said, "When are you going to pick up the things?"

Lazy asked back: "Exit order?"

I smiled wryly and said, "I just want to get this thing sooner."

Lazy said: "It's comfortable here, I will live here from now on."

I was choked up, and said: "There is no reason to stay for a long time as a guest."

The lazy guy replied lazily: "My lord is rich, I will take over this room from now on. I have finished what I have to say. If you have nothing to do, go away. I want to rest." I was instantly pissed off When the second Buddha was born and ascended to heaven, he felt so choked by him that he couldn't speak a word.

Seeing that he was already asleep, he had no choice but to leave first.After returning to the shop, I called Zhuan Rui to inquire about the situation of Hongmao and Chen Tiande.It is said that Hongmao locked himself in the room as soon as he returned to BJ. It is said that he was studying the treasure he found out from the bottom of the water, and no one was allowed to disturb him. Zhuan Rui didn't know it very well, but at least he was still there.

As for Chen Tiande, he was still the same, he suddenly disappeared some time ago, Zhuan Rui secretly sent someone to inquire, and only then did I know that Mr. Chen passed away this winter.Chen Tiande has a perverse and weird temper, but he is not hard-hearted after all, so he went home once.At present, it should be when he is in a bad mood.

I stopped by to ask about Lu Su's situation, and Zhuan Rui told me that Bai Sanye and Lu Su had been fighting fiercely, but in the past few days, the flags and drums have died down, and no movement has been heard.But based on experience, it should be something big.

On Lu Su's side, he was still chasing Tofu. His circle of contacts was extremely large, but he didn't even find out about Tofu's movements.During this period, Zhuan Rui noticed a strange thing. In fact, when it comes to domestic power, Bai Sanye is relatively disadvantaged.Because he just came back to China not long ago.But this time, Third Master Bai and Lu Su faced each other, causing Lu Su's crazy counterattack, which caused great damage.

Regarding this, Zhuan Rui has been quietly waiting and watching. According to his own judgment of the situation, Lu Su has always had the upper hand. Even Bai Sanye's side has become overwhelmed by the situation and has begun to send reinforcements abroad.But the long distance can't quench the near thirst. In fact, as long as Lu Su works harder, he might win.

However, at this critical moment, it was Lu Su who withdrew his troops first, and it seemed very strange that the two groups of troops withdrew their troops quickly.Zhuan Rui speculated that it was likely that there was something wrong with Lu Su, and it seemed that the two had reached an agreement, so they reconciled.

According to Zhuan Rui's speculation, he felt that the possibility of reconciliation between the two was unlikely, after all, Bai Sanye had suffered a heavy loss from being punished by Lu Su this time.The biggest possibility is still the first one, [-]% there is something wrong with Lu Su himself.

When Zhuan Rui said this, I couldn't help but think of Xiao Jing. Could it be because of what she told me?

Otherwise, what else could mess up Lu Su's position?
After much deliberation, I decided to go to BJ and invite Chen Tiande out of the mountain. No matter what, I would go to that place to see who the real Lu Su was.If we can get this weak spot, maybe we can change the situation. Tofu and I won't become bait in the water and have no power to resist.

It's just that I have been outside for more than half a month, and there are some things that need to be dealt with in the shop, and I can't catch up for a while. By the time I finish what needs to be done, it will be the second week.Lazy still lives in Qixing Building, Bai Shuang doesn't care about this, saying that Lazy is more well-behaved, basically stays at home, eats and sleeps every day, and is very easy to serve.

This kid's stronghold is in BJ. Hearing that I was going to the imperial capital, he finally showed mercy and said that he would go back together and give me the things.

After booking the air tickets, we flew to the imperial capital the next day, each doing our own business.Zhuanrui had his own affairs, so I didn't bother him, and brought a gift to the door myself.With experience, I also know what gifts to give. I bought more than 40 catties of pork slices and twisted them to the door.

Chen Tiande saw that I was more upright, so his attitude was not as bad as the first time we met, but he ignored me and ate noodles by himself.The winter in the north is very cold, and when he speaks, there will be a stream of white smoke. Chen Tiande is too lazy to speak, he raised his eyelids, and motioned for me to speak quickly and fart quickly.

For this kind of person who offends him a little, and then kills him, I don't want to make him feel bad, so I don't care about his attitude, and told me why I came.I thought it would take a lot of effort to invite him out of the mountain, but Chen Tiande's expression changed after listening to me, and he said to himself: "The messenger... fertilizer, it seems that the man is raising corpses, what do you think?" The courier in the past must have been able to survive until now, and even she can't deal with it... Interesting, interesting, it seems that the corpse is well-raised."

How about an insider looking at the doorway, and an outsider watching the fun? As soon as I finished speaking, he saw the key to this, and it seemed that he was very interested in the corpse raised by Lu Su.I had been thinking about whether the real Lu Su was dead or alive, but now that he mentioned it, I knew that the man was definitely dead.

While talking, he asked me when I was going to leave, and he seemed very impatient.I calculated the time, and there are still five days until Monday, but in order to prevent any changes, naturally the sooner the better.It's just that Chen Tiande was a little worried about his dogs, so I called Zhuan Rui, and he readily promised to send someone to take care of these dogs.

After agreeing on a departure time, I left the Chen family.I wanted to meet Hongmao at first, but he has no time to see me right now. Hearing his voice on the phone, he seemed very excited. It's almost done." After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone.

Since I booked a flight ticket for the next day, I stayed in the hotel for one night. During this period, the lazy guy brought the thing to me.

It was a very thin notebook, which looked a little old. It was packed in a wooden box by lazy goods, and it was well preserved.After opening it, as the lazy guy said, it is full of cipher text, and no one can know its meaning if they don't know how to decipher it.

However, Grandpa has passed away, and Wu Shui is also dead. Who else would know the password?
After the lazy man handed over the things to me, he left without leaving, but he left me a number and said that since I am Wu Shui's son, I can get a discount on my work.

I said, "I still owe you the 80 labor fee for the time being. Even if it is discounted, I can't afford you anymore."

The lazy man raised his eyebrows, and finally curled his lips, and said, "It's fine to take care of the food and sleep." I was a little surprised, he was selling me.Experience tells me that there will be no one who is nice to you for no reason. I was a little puzzled and asked him what he meant.

The lazy man was silent for a while, and said: "When we parted, he told me that if he found someone, he had to take care of you, and I agreed." After speaking, the lazy man waved his hand and said, "I need to find me."

I immediately said: "I have something to do now, come with me tomorrow." The lazy guy didn't ask much, nodded and went back.I was lying on the bed in your hotel, thinking about what he said, feeling oppressed and uncomfortable.The Wu Shui described by Lazy is a completely different person. Perhaps, he should be a good father.

But what happened that year?
What ruined the happy family I should have had?

………………

The next day, the three of us met at the airport. Chen Tiande carried a checked pet box in his hand. It was very small. I found it was a black dog the size of a palm.I was not happy in my heart, why did this man bring another dog?But soon, I found something was wrong with the dog.

It doesn't bark, and doesn't move, it almost seems to be spiritual, without Chen Tiande's instructions, it is like a doll dog.

All of a sudden, it reminded me of something: spiritual pets.

Spiritual pets are things that some alchemists often kept in ancient times. They usually choose black cats or dogs, and then have a special set of secret techniques to feed them.The raised spiritual pet is connected with the master's mind, and it is said that it can increase the life of the master and prevent disasters.

Could this be Chen Tiande's spiritual pet?As if seeing my doubts, Chen Tiande patted the slap dog and said: "The earth spirit pet can bite ghosts, so it is useful to bring it along." The folk saying that a dog bites a ghost does not mean that a dog actually bites a ghost, But the dog's eyes can see ghosts, and when it sees a strange 'person' walking into its own home, the dog will bark, so it is called biting ghosts.

The biting that Chen Tiande said obviously had another meaning, what he called biting was real biting.This earth spirit pet can really bite ghosts.I touched my nose, and I was actually a little bit guilty. After all, things like raising spiritual pets are just hearsay. I don't know if they are as powerful as in the legends.

Fortunately, this thing is not noisy, so there is no need to worry about it.
