Tomb Raider: I, at the beginning, took Fatty Lao Hu as my younger brother

"We were both shocked at the time. Later, when we asked, the villagers said it was the emperor mushroom. If you are lucky, you can see it once or twice every August. But it grows fast and rots fast."

"If you just saw it this morning, it might be gone by noon. Also, it's very dangerous to be near a forest where emperor mushrooms grow, because the smell is too conspicuous and the color is different."

"Its properties vary greatly, and because it is rare, few people know its specific situation, so when people see it, they pretend not to see it. They dare not eat it, dare not touch it, and simply avoid it."

Lao Hu said, "This mushroom is not as big as the ones we saw in Xing'an Mountains, but it's not a big deal. It should also be the emperor mushroom."

It was also the first time that Zhou Xun saw such a big mushroom. It really broadened his horizons!

Zhou Xun sighed: "The world is so big, there are all kinds of wonders!"

After rolling down the gravel slope beside the underground lake, it is almost impossible to climb back up.

The gravel slope was too steep and I kept slipping when I stepped on it, so I couldn't stand at all. I had no choice but to climb down from the emperor mushroom first.

The three climbed from the top of the Emperor Mushroom to the edge and looked down at the terrain.

Under the tall emperor mushroom, there are countless ground mushrooms of varying heights and sizes.

Looking down, it looks like a mushroom forest, with many large mayflies like long-tailed dragonflies flying around in it like groups of white ghosts!

In the distance was the second level of the underground lake. When the three people just fell into the lake, they felt the strong force of the water flowing eastward.

It turns out that the underground lake in this huge cave is divided into two layers, with a large drop in height between them. There are countless holes on the dome-like ceiling at the top.

The largest ones can be more than ten meters long, while the smallest ones can be less than one meter long.

The lake water above and the groundwater in the mountains all poured down from those holes, and all the water columns flowed into the underground lake above.

This is a sloping pot bottom. The terrain on the east side is lower. When the first layer of water is full, a large curtain of water is formed, pouring into the second layer of underground lake below.

That lake is much larger.

The areas with heavy water are black and white, making it difficult to see the whole picture!

If the rest were still alive, they were most likely washed down to the second level of the underground lake by the current.

Emperor mushrooms grow not far from the second-level underground lake.

The three of them were looking down from a high place, trying to search for the missing Shirley Yang and others, but they only saw a few big fish jumping out of the water from time to time, and there was no sign of a single person.

Lao Hu suggested, "How about you guys just keep an eye out here, and I'll go down and look around the lake?"

"Wait, someone is coming!"

There was movement in the distance, Zhou Xun noticed it immediately and pointed down to remind them.

When Lao Hu and Fatty looked, they saw two people below, who were Zhang Yingchen and Uncle Ming who had lost contact.

I saw a man swimming up from the lake below, and then he pulled up another wasted man.

Zhang Yingchen helped Uncle Ming, who was struggling, walk a few steps, looked around, and then walked straight into the mushroom forest under the emperor mushroom!

Judging from the expressions of the two men, they also seemed to want to climb to a higher place to get a clearer view of the terrain!

The fat man said excitedly: "々｀ Hey, it's my senior brother!"

Old Hu laughed and said, "I didn't expect this old Hong Kong farmer to be so lucky. He's still alive even in this state!"

Zhou Xun said: "Okay, now we have found the two people closest to us. The other group of people should have landed in the same area. I don't know if they have met up yet!"

Lao Hu said, "How about you guys meet up with Senior Brother and Lao Gangnong first, I'll go to the lake to look for Shirley, Yang Chuyi and the others, and then meet up near this most obvious Emperor Mushroom!"

Old Hu just finished speaking.

But suddenly he saw Uncle Ming walking for more than ten meters among the tall and short mushrooms. After reaching the flat ground, Zhang Yingchen no longer supported Uncle Ming.

I don’t know if Uncle Ming was so frightened and exhausted that he couldn’t take a step and fell to the ground, rolling in the mud.

Then he turned over on the ground. Zhang Yingchen wanted to pull his uncle Ming up, but he just wouldn't get up. He just lay on the ground, rubbing his arms for a long time without getting up.

It seems like I am kind of giving up on myself.

Zhang Yingyin was speechless when he saw Uncle Ming like this, but it was not convenient for him to leave alone, so he had to stand there and rest.

Normally, Uncle Ming's fall would not be a big deal, but his heavy body startled something nearby.

Chapter 318: A huge centipede?

Zhou Xun and Fatty Lao Hu, who were at a high altitude, used the dim fluorescent light to discover that a patch of mushrooms not far from Zhang Yingchen and Uncle Ming suddenly began to move.

There was a thing covered in a black shell slowly wriggling inside.

The black shell is arc-shaped layer by layer, and the body is very long.

Lao Hu exclaimed: "That thing looks like a giant centipede!"

The fat man was dumbfounded: "Is this true? If this is a centipede, how big must it be!"

Zhou Xun, who was extremely powerful, could make the night seem like day, and said, "That's not a centipede!"

Uncle Ming was lying on the ground with his arms and legs spread out, his mouth opening and closing as if he was talking to himself, perhaps blaming others again.

Zhang Yingchen couldn't stand Uncle Ming's nagging and simply covered his ears!

Neither of them noticed the danger approaching.

Lao Hu warned loudly: "Be careful!"

The fat man also shouted: "Brother, be careful!"

Zhou Xun said: "Stop shouting. They can't hear us. The sound of your shouting is covered by the sound of the nearby water. If you don't speak closer, they can't hear you at all!"

When Lao Hu and Fatty heard this, they had no choice.

Just raise it and aim at the big centipede below, ready to shoot.

Zhou Xun stopped them, saying, "Don't shoot. You guys will be like Lei Xianming. If you alert the other creatures inside, will they be able to escape? You might even trap Lao Zhang."

"Well, Lao Hu, let's go find them together, Fatty, you stay up there and help us look at the terrain!"

Lao Hu immediately drew out his paratrooper knife: "Okay!"

"no problem!"

The fat man nodded.

The main reason why Lao Hu did not use the Xiao Shenfeng was that the Xiao Shenfeng was too sharp. If one slides down on the Xiao Shenfeng, he can fall to death directly!

Just do it.

Lao Hu inserted the paratrooper knife into the emperor mushroom and slid down from the tilted cap.

There were also some very tall mushrooms below, distributed in a trapezoidal shape. When encountering a place with a large slope where it was impossible to stand, Lao Hu simply used his paratrooper knife to slow down and quickly reached the bottom.

Seeing Lao Hu go down smoothly, Zhou Xun directly took out a military dagger from the system space, inserted it into the emperor mushroom, and slid down directly.

Because Zhou Xun's reaction was incredibly fast, he slid down quickly as well, and soon landed next to Lao Hu.

There is no ground here. The layer below is full of small mushrooms the size of fingers, and nearby are large mushrooms over one meter long.

Lao Hu looked back at the fat man above. The fat man hung the AK47 rifle on his chest, waved his arms, and sent out flag signals used for naval communications.

These were what the two had learned in Fujian. They were very simple and intuitive.

After reading it, Lao Hu waved his arm to show that he had received it, and then said to Zhou Xun: "The fat guy means that the other party is moving slowly, and then pointed us in the direction!"

Zhou Xun nodded.

He really didn't know how to use flag language, so he said to Lao Hu: "You two are really knowledgeable!"

Lao Hu smiled and said, "Keep a low profile, keep a low profile!"

At this time, a faint layer of poisonous gas appeared in the mushroom forest.

Old Hu was worried that the centipede would release poisonous smoke, so he took out a gas mask from his backpack and put it on. Then he looked at Zhou Xun and asked, "Old Zhou, aren't you going to wear it? This thing might be as poisonous as the white barrier in King Xian's tomb!"

Zhou Xun rubbed his nose and said, "I don't need it. Do you know more about being immune to all poisons?"

Lao Hu:......

The two moved on.

After the fat man pointed out several directions, they easily found Zhang Yingyin who was standing and Uncle Ming who was lying down.

When Zhang Yingchen saw the two of them, he immediately became excited: "I finally see you guys."

Zhou Xun said to Zhang Yingchen, "We came here specifically to look for you. We saw you from a high place just after you came ashore."

Lao Hu said, "Brother, let's not talk too much for now. There is danger near you. We have to leave quickly."

Having said that, Lao Hu walked forward and prepared to forcibly pull Uncle Ming up and then run away.

Uncle Ming was shocked when he suddenly saw the gas mask.

Ever since Uncle Ming lay down, his perception was almost like that of a person who was asleep, and he was completely blocked from all external signals.

"it's me!"

As Old Hu said this, he wanted to pull Uncle Ming up.

Uncle Ming felt relieved when he heard Lao Hu's voice.

Uncle Ming stared with dull eyes, smiled foolishly at Lao Hu, and tried to struggle to cooperate with Lao Hu.

But it seemed as if his two legs had turned into noodles and could not be controlled at all.

Old Hu was eager to leave here, so he made a gesture to Uncle Ming to keep quiet, and then carried Uncle Ming on his back.

Several people were just about to leave here.

Then I heard Uncle Ming burst into laughter: "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!"

Old Hu was shocked at once, and then he became very angry. Damn it, I came to save you, but you actually wanted me to die with you. The empire's selfless heart is really undying!

He simply bounced his feet and fell backwards, pressing Uncle Ming under his back. This time, Old Hu used all his strength.

Even Zhou Xun and Zhang Yingchen who were standing next to them couldn't help but observe a moment of silence for Uncle Ming.

This time, if he doesn't die, he will be half dead...

“Ahem, haha, hahaha, ahem, haha, hahaha, ga ga…!”

But Uncle Ming’s laughter didn’t stop at all, and from the sound of it, he was a little out of breath. That laughter was ten times more unpleasant than the woman’s crying!

Lao Hu cursed angrily: "Damn it, you are still laughing at this time."

In a hurry, Lao Hu remembered a poem, and the devil's palace trembled in laughter.

This devilish laughter immediately made Old Hu feel unhappy, and he thought to himself: Damn it, laughing loudly before dying is the privilege of revolutionaries. Why should you, an old capitalist, laugh? Let me let you taste the iron fist of this proletarian master Hu, and I will implement my dictatorship on you and see if you can still laugh.

Zhou Xun looked at Uncle Ming who seemed possessed and said, "Something is wrong. It's not that he wants to laugh, but he can't control it!"

Old Hu and Zhang Yingchen were startled. Now they both realized that something was wrong with Uncle Ming and they were afraid that he was possessed by a ghost.

The two men pointed their AK47s and submachine guns at Uncle Ming's head.

Chapter 319: Fox-like and Mouse-like Guanyin

At this time.

Uncle Ming was laughing so hard that he was out of breath, his whole body was shaking, and he was even foaming at the mouth. If he continued laughing, he would probably die!

Zhou Xun looked around and found that where Uncle Ming fell, there were clusters of unique little mushrooms with a layer of green powder on them.

Zhou Xun pointed at the small mushroom with green powder and said, "Don't be afraid, he's not possessed by a ghost. He's just poisoned. It's very likely that he licked it when he fell. He's also a ruthless person like the fat man!"

Looking at the small mushroom with green powder, Lao Hu and Zhang Yingchen put down the guns aimed at Uncle Ming's head.

Old Hu walked over to take a look at the little mushroom and said, "Is this the legendary laughing mushroom? I didn't expect the green powder on it to be so sharp. It turns into this when it gets in your mouth."

"If you keep laughing like this, you probably won't be alive for more than a few minutes!"

Zhou Xun smiled evilly and gave a good idea: "You should hit him a few times first, and then let him smell the Northern Emperor's Mysterious Pearl. This way, it should be possible to save him!"

Old Hu nodded in agreement, slapped Uncle Ming hard on the face a few times, and then took out the Northern Emperor's Black Pearl and placed it on Uncle Ming's nose as instructed by Zhou Xun.

The smell of the Beidi Black Pearl was very pungent. Uncle Ming smelled it and sneezed violently several times before he stopped laughing!

But the muscles on his face were convulsed from laughing so hard that he couldn't recover for a while. His face was covered with snot and tears, and he looked extremely embarrassed!

This time!

A rifle bullet hit a mushroom near Lao Hu.

Old Hu was startled and turned around suddenly.

Then I saw the fat man on the Emperor Mushroom holding a gun and waving it continuously, as if he was notifying everyone to evacuate quickly.
