Tomb Raiders Notes: If Innocence Had a Brother

Early the next morning, everyone was back on the road.

Although the morning was gloomy, luckily it didn't rain. The professor surnamed Tu and Heixiazi formed a quarrel on the first day. I don't know why, but the blind man didn't like that person.

In the tent that day, Okitajima introduced a few people to each other. Professor Tu extended his hand to the blind man: "Hello, my surname is Tu. I am responsible for Mr. Okita's health. What are your professional expertise?"

The two of them shook hands lightly: "My specialty is wiping butts."

The tent burst into laughter.

I remember the last person who owed me this much was also a professor, named Zhang Tuzi.

It started to rain again in the afternoon. Mu Anlie pointed his gun at me and motioned for me to clear the way ahead. Carlos glanced at me lightly, but didn't express his opinion. But when Ba Qi wanted to say something, Mu Anlie hit her with Mucang Tou.

I took a stick to explore the path ahead, mainly paying attention to avoiding deep puddles under my feet. You have to go around here, climb over a small dirt bag, and walk for another three or four days to reach the signal mark.

Endless rain fell from the sky, and until nightfall, no suitable campsite was found. Sang Nan went to explore the front, and the rain was still pouring down. Finally, everyone set up a rainproof cloth on the southern slope.

Finally able to rest, I untied my shoes and emptied them of the water. My feet were freezing cold from the soaking, and it was impossible to make a fire to keep warm during the rainy season. I untied the bandage that trapped the pant leg and checked that nothing weird had gotten into it.

He took out a small flask from his bag, which contained high-concentration liquor. It was very hot when he drank it.

It rained on the morning of the third day. After arranging my equipment, Mu Anlie sent me to explore the road ahead again.

Whether it's opening a road or exploring a road, it's all very laborious and physically demanding. According to the arrangement, two people work in groups and one group advances for half a day.

"I'm going with him." Baqi didn't know what to say, so he picked up the wooden warehouse and stood beside me.

"You shouldn't go with that blind man." Baqi said to me on the way.

"Did Mu Anlie tell you?"

"Carlos said that the blind man was a ruthless person, and the Japanese also had problems." Baqi raised his head and glanced at the road ahead, then used a stick to explore.

I took a sip of the dripping rainwater, thought for a while and said to Baqi: "The blind man can trust me."

"We are different." After saying that, he ignored me.

Baqi's eyes were slightly cold. Carlos couldn't trust the youngest, and none of them could trust the youngest, the newcomer who had landed in the air. Carlos asked her to examine the youngest. Baqi could see that the youngest had a good heart, but the appearance of the blind man made the entire team wary.

In the afternoon, Hun Sen and Hu Li replaced me and Baqi.

After a long journey, we finally reached the signal mark point. The entrance to the ruins is covered with layers of vines.

Those vines looked familiar to me. After staring for a long time, I felt suspicious. Such vines can be found everywhere in the tropical rainforest.

"Let's go in."

Carlos greeted everyone, but Okitashima stopped everyone uncharacteristically. "Mr. Consultant, please go ahead and ask Carlos to ask your people to follow."

The black blind man sneered and said to Chong Tian-san, if you are afraid, it is still too late to go back now.

"Please fulfill the contract." Okitajima made a gesture of invitation.

The blind man got in first.

Inside is a long corridor, covered with vines and weeds, and plants very rich in rainforest style. Everyone looked around with flashlights and everyone was on alert.

Gu Ziqing followed Heixiazi, holding a flashlight and unable to hide the nervousness on his face. Instead, the blind man became the most calm and calm among the group of people.

Murals began to appear in the passage, which gradually became complete as it went deeper. It seems that the external fortifications were forced to terminate for some reason.

The blind man walked to a wall, wiped it with his hand, and his fingers were stained with black marks. "This toner is fresh. It should have been left by Gu Huaisheng's team." Hei Xiazi said.

Walking further inside, large snake statues begin to appear.

"Outside is a scene of people working, and here is a scene of a giant snake and people kneeling and offering sacrifices to the snake. Do they worship the giant snake?" Gu Ziqing asked Heixiazi directly. "Why were the murals here destroyed?"

"It's nothing more than the relationship between eating and being eaten." After the blind man finished speaking, he continued walking deeper without waiting for the people behind him.

Before I left, I took a look at the destroyed murals. There were many craters on the wall. Could it be that the Black Blind Man had been here before?

"Youngest, let's go." Baqi shouted.

I took one last look and continued walking behind.

"Ah, what is it!!" Gu Ziqing shouted, Carlos and Mu Anlie used tactical flashlights to find the target, and the others quickly set up the wooden warehouse and formed a defensive formation.

Ba Qi stepped forward to pull Gu Ziqing down.

Before Baqi could pull him up, he heard an exclamation and there was a body lying in the grass.

In front of Okita Island, he and Heixiazi stood beside the corpse, one on the left and one on the right. Professor Tu looked panicked and was very frightened.

"People from the previous team." The black blind man peeled back the grass, and there was a body inside.

Okitashima's mind was not on the body. He quickly walked to the backpack scattered on the ground and poured it all out. Unfortunately, there is no golden Buddha he wants.

The mercenaries spread out and tried to confirm the safety range as much as possible.

The blind man pressed his hand on the body and said, "He fell to death."

"But there is no high place here, how could they fall to death?" Gu Ziqing looked around with a flashlight, expressing confusion about the black blind man's inference.

"The sternum is sunken, the cervical vertebrae are fractured, and the fatal injury is to the skull. The appearance of death is too ugly." The black blind man said and concluded that Sang Nan also made new discoveries.

"There are blood stains and traces of struggle here." Sang Nan pointed to the crushed weeds and four blood stains left on the wall.

"The blood stain is that the man tried to grab the stone, but something grabbed his feet, and threw him into the air and fell to the ground." Baqi took a look and said to me, "I'm afraid it's a big guy."

I looked at the corpses and blood stains on the ground and subconsciously said, "Giant snake."

"Yes, are you afraid? Brother will protect you." Hei Xiazi turned his head and glanced at Baqi next to me, and said nonchalantly.

This blind, disgusting man's abilities are getting better and better.

"Ah!" Gu Ziqing jumped up on the spot, rushed to the black blind man, and shouted behind him pretending to be fierce. "What are you doing!?"

Mu Anlie said in a frivolous tone: "What's wrong, little sister, are you afraid? Brother will protect you." After that, he looked at the blind man provocatively.

Carlos saw Mu Anlie lift Gu Ziqing's shirt with a wooden pole, but he just frowned and acquiesced to Mu Anlie's behavior.

I took a step forward and Baqi pulled me.

"It's dangerous here, let's continue." Okitashima urged after confirming that there was no golden Buddha at the scene, turning a deaf ear to the internal conflicts.

Going deeper, weeds as tall as a person began to appear. I looked up to the top of my head, where only a faint light came through. I didn't know how these plants grew so lushly.

Then everyone discovered a huge snake slough, and Black Blind Man congratulated everyone on a giant man-eating snake.

Am I so happy watching Heixiazi's secret passage? Haven't you had enough fun with the cute little ones in Xiwangmu Sheze? Or are you actually an invisible reptile controller?

I found that I seemed to have endless nagging points when facing the black blind man. Suddenly Sang Nan opened the wooden warehouse, and everyone subconsciously pointed the mouth of the wooden warehouse at the grass and pulled the trigger.

After Jin Balin went over to investigate, he sneered: "Coward." Sang Nan was not angry, glanced at Jin Balin and turned back to the team.

The next second, Jinbalin was dragged into the grass and died.

In a panic, the bodyguards Okitashima brought opened the wooden warehouse and were kicked down by Carlos. "Look at the target and fire." Carlos shouted.

Everyone focused their flashlights on one spot, staring directly at everyone with their scarlet eyes. It was a giant snake, but Jin Balin was nowhere to be seen.

"Suppressive fire, retreat." Carlos scanned around and found that Jimbalin was indeed missing, so he ordered a retreat.

In an instant, the bullet hit the giant snake. The beast was in pain and rolled over in the grass. It seemed to be surrounding everyone. I couldn't help but marvel at how big this snake was!

Just as everyone was fighting and retreating, Gu Ziqing was pushed out.

"Help!" Gu Ziqing was shocked.

"Save her!" To my surprise, Okitajima stopped and ordered Carlos to rescue her.

The blind man flew up, hugged Gu Ziqing and rolled to the side. Carlos's symbolic giant snake opened the wooden warehouse and pushed Okitajima back without saying a word.

Baqi gestured to me, I shook my head and approached the blind man holding the wooden warehouse.
