Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 737 Departure
Probably because I got used to this hasty rhythm, although I didn't sleep for a long time, I still felt refreshed when I woke up the next morning.After I washed up, I went downstairs to have breakfast with Bai Shuang.She asked me where I was going next, and I said, "Go shopping first." It's summer now, and it's very hot, a few steamed buns, a bowl of vegetable porridge, and I'm sweating.

The place where Lu Su is actually not far from our place, about ten minutes’ walk away, I took Bai Shuang to buy a pair of binoculars, Bai Shuang understood it at a glance, and said: "You want to monitor them ?”

I said: "You may not be able to believe everything that Lu Su said, let's not show up and see their situation."

After shopping, we wandered around the hotel where Lu Su lived.According to the information given by Zhenlu Su, he is in room 205 on the second floor. The window of 205 is facing the past. It is a small office building. When we enter the second floor of this office building, we can observe the movement inside through the window.

Fortunately, this is an old office building, and there are self-employed people inside, so there is no supervision. We climbed up to the second floor, searched for a while, and found the best location, which is an air vent in the corridor. There are few people in the place, and the vent is obliquely facing Lu Su's window, which is an excellent peeping spot.

In order to prevent being seen by others, I asked Bai Shuang to let the wind out, and put away the binoculars as soon as anyone came.

The layout of the hotel is not big, it is the kind of single room, that is, a bathroom, a single room, a simple room with a bed and a computer, the curtains of the windows are only half drawn, but through the middle part, you can see roughly See the scene inside.

There are two beds inside. There is no one on the bed, but there is a wallet on the head of the bed on one side. It seems that the owner has not left, most likely he went to the bathroom or something.

Since the distance is not far and there are telescopes, everything in the room can be seen clearly.

About a few minutes later, the real master showed up, with his slippers drooping, looking quite casual, it was Lu Su we were waiting for.This person is usually dressed in a personable manner, but when I saw this attire, I was really taken aback for a moment. He was sitting on a chair with his legs crossed, and he was talking towards the opposite. It seemed that someone should be standing opposite him, but it was a pity I couldn't see it half way, so I guess it was the old man that Zhenlu Su was talking about.I paid attention to the shape of Lu Su's lips, most of them were invisible, but I caught a recurring lip shape. If I guessed correctly, the three characters were Kunlun Mountains.

Is he really going to enter Kunlun Mountain?

I carefully observed the possible clues in the room, and soon, I found a dark thing protruding from the side of the bed.Because most of it was blocked by the bed, the thing didn't show its full face, but I was very familiar with it.

It should be a black equipment bag, and it is bulging, and it seems to be full.

Zhen Lu Su didn't lie to me. Looking at their situation, it is estimated that they will take action in the next two days.

Just thinking about it, Lu Su suddenly got up and walked to the opposite side, and then I couldn't see anything.

About two or three minutes later, near the door, Lu Su's figure appeared again, but he had changed his clothes, and behind him, there was a thin figure from the back, which should be the old man, but unfortunately his back was facing me, I couldn't see what he looked like either. After the two of them left the door, they couldn't see everything clearly. I immediately adjusted the focus to the maximum and pointed the lens at the hotel's gate.

After a while, the two of them went downstairs without carrying their equipment bags. It seemed that they would not be leaving today. At this time, the face of the old man also appeared in my camera.I was shocked when I saw it, because that person was the third master Bai who disappeared almost at the same time as Lu Su!

These two are deadly enemies, why are they getting mixed up now?Could it be that with the common and powerful opponent of the corpse fairy, these two have become a group instead?
I thought before that the disappearance of these two people at the same time must be tricky, but I didn't expect them to cooperate now.

After going out, the two took a taxi, and they didn't know where they were going, and soon disappeared from our sight.Bai Shuang said: "Aren't we going to keep up? What if we run away?"

I said: "Their equipment is still there, so they can't run away. Let's go shopping." Looking at the bulging equipment bag, it is estimated that the two of them have almost prepared. Buy it all, and I'm afraid I'll really be left behind by then.

Immediately, we spent a whole day buying equipment. Since this place is close to the Kunlun Mountain Pass, there are often tourists who want to climb snow-capped mountains. Therefore, there are many professional outdoor equipment stores like this.

In the evening, I was satisfied with my ability to move, because almost as soon as our equipment bags were packed, Zhenlu Su suddenly sent me a message: Kunlun Pass, let’s go.

I was a little surprised, I know he has been monitoring Lu Su, and he has a thorough grasp of Lu Su's whereabouts. The meaning of this message is obvious. Lu Su and the two headed towards the Kunlun Mountain Pass.
However, it's already dark now, so if you want to enter the mountain, you don't have to enter now, right?
From here to the Kunlun Mountain Pass, it takes about three hours to drive. What’s the point of starting now and arriving at the Kunlun Mountain Pass, that is, after twelve o’clock in the evening?Could it be... A guess suddenly popped up in my mind, and the more I thought about it, the more reliable it became, and I hurriedly said: "Quick, pack up, we don't have enough equipment, change to a big bag, and buy it before the door is closed."

"What?" Bai Shuang was surprised, and said, "Still buying it? What are you buying?"

I dragged her downstairs to take a taxi. I didn't care to stop, got in the car and reported the location, and then explained: "Buy food. We don't have enough food prepared."

Bai Shuang blinked in surprise. In fact, we have prepared enough supplies. Of course, this is what I thought not long ago. When I saw this message from Zhenlu Su, I felt that I had prepared too much. not enough.

The Kunlun Mountains have always been known as the ancestor of the Chinese dragon veins. It has a vast territory and extends across XJ and XZ to Qinghai.

Because of this, the rare geographical gap has caused many areas inside the Kunlun Mountains that cannot even be detected by satellites. So far, most of the exploration of the Kunlun Mountains has been in the fringe areas, while the interior is within the scope of professional expeditions. I don't know how many dangers there are inside, and if you go in, you will be close to death.

Sometimes, if you search on Baidu casually, some photos in the depths of Kunlun Mountains that appear seem to be quite common, but behind this photo may be the lives of the sacrificed expedition members.

Golmud is close to the pass of Kunlun Mountain, but the pass of Kunlun Mountain is only a small area. If you want to enter the snow peak, you have to walk for a long time.To the south of this area is Hoh Xil, a no-man's land known as the land of death.

There are only two possible routes for Lu Su, either to turn into Hoh Xil, or to cross the Kunlun Mountain Pass, go up west, and enter the Kunlun Mountains. The journey in between will take about a day.

Lu Su mentioned the word Kunlun Mountain many times before. I guess the possibility of him going to Hoh Xil is very small. At first I thought he was talking about going to Kunlun Mountain, but now judging from his early departure behavior, he probably wanted to go to Hoh Xil. Bypass the Kunlun Mountains and enter the Kunlun Mountains.

There is a difference between the word mountain and mountain range, but the meaning is completely different.The ancients described the Kunlun Mountains as: stretching for three thousand miles, with a vertical and horizontal length of 800 million.If Lu Su's destination is still deep in the mountains, where there are thousands of miles of ice, food and heating are the most important things.

The car soon arrived at the door of the store and was about to close the door. I felt like calling the salesperson and said: "Little brother, please wait a moment, we have to buy something." He was a little unhappy, but he still stopped closing the door.Bai Shuang and I went to the food section to add some compressed biscuits and jerky. Since we didn't know how long it would take, we bought some vitamins and finally added some solid fuel and other things, so we gave up.

At present, all the taxis are still on the street. We asked several drivers and paid high prices, and finally one master was willing to take the night train to Kunlun Mountain Pass.

I asked to go to the Kunlun Mountain Pass at night. There were no cars on that road at night, and the two sides were desolate. The driver was very vigilant. He kept peeking at us through the rearview mirror along the way. There was a steel rod at our feet, probably in the Be on guard, worrying that we are robbing.

Bai Shuang smiled and said, "Master, you can concentrate on driving. Have you ever seen a robbery with a woman?"

The driver thought about it, and seeing Bai Shuang's temperament, he said, "The driver's accident is not always reported on TV now. It's not easy to make a living." After that, he really didn't peek at us anymore. He accelerated, and the car Speeding on the national highway, we arrived at the Kunlun Mountain Pass in less than three hours.

There are some sporadic buildings here, all of which are businessmen, who open their doors during the day to sell some fruit and snacks to tourists.But it was night, all the shops were closed, and it was dark.The driver stopped the car, looked around, and said, "I have been driving for so many years, and I have come and gone to and from the Kunlun Mountain Pass thousands of times. I have never seen anyone entering the mountain at night. Are you planning to camp here to experience life?"

I said by the way: "That's what I mean."

The driver didn't want to chat with us in the wasteland at night, so he rubbed his hands and was about to leave when someone shouted, "Wait a minute."

Immediately afterwards, a man ran on the road in the distance, a middle-aged man who was sweating profusely.He ignored us and asked the driver directly: "Brother, do you have any gas? Move a little."

The driver was surprised: "Why go out and drive without gas?"

The man was obviously a taxi driver, he seemed to know the driver, and cursed: "At night, there are two men coming here, crazy. The price offered is good, so I came here, and forgot to pay attention to the fuel quantity As he said that, he noticed Bai Shuang and me at the side, and he was a little embarrassed, obviously he also saw that Bai Shuang and I were also the kind of crazy people who were so bored that they came to Kunlun Mountain Pass at night.

But I guessed the identities of those two psychopaths, they should be Lu Su and Bai Sanye.
