Tomb Raiders Notes: If Innocence Had a Brother

After the three of them dealt with the dead man, they turned around and saw me looking at them with open eyes. They briefly asked me about my physical condition, and I replied that it was nothing serious.

"What did you mean by what you said then? What did the third uncle ask you to bring me?" Wu Xie asked while smoking the cigarette found from the dead man.

"What did I say?"

"You said there was no wind and no time." Wu Xie looked at me tentatively.

I thought about it and said solemnly to Wu Xie: "I forgot, but this must be very important information!"

"What you said is as if you didn't say it." Li Cu was a little disappointed.

The three of them turned around to deal with the things left by the dead, and finally sorted out as many as three or four sacks.

The sorting work was going on, and Li Cu discovered that most of the things Wang Meng found were gold and silver jewelry, as well as many food stamps, coins, watches, etc. from that time.

Li Cu was a little angry, thinking that this was money stolen from a dead person. But Wang Meng insisted on bringing it to the civilized world to show its value.

To be honest, I really want to get a share of the pie. After all, without the system, I will become a pauper, and I will have a problem eating in the future.

Li Cu took out a female ring from the pile of things, "Hey, is there a woman inside the body?"

Wang Meng nodded: "There should be, but they all look like that. I can't tell whether they are male or female."

"Wouldn't it be good to bury those men and women together?" Li Cu said.

"I can't control that much anymore." Wu Xie said this, but he still couldn't help but look in the direction of the tomb. The three of them looked at each other and smiled.

I have no shame in looking at that scene.

The three of them finished laughing and were about to continue sorting the relics. Suddenly Wu Xie frowned and said, "That's not right!"

"I just said that's not right. We should dig out the female body and bury it somewhere else." Li Cu said.

"That's not what you're talking about. Where's the tombstone we just erected?"

The three of them stood up and looked over at Wang Shaqiu again, and found that the tombstone they had just inserted on the mountain was really missing.

Li Cu asked Wang Meng: "Could it be that the insertion was not strong enough and it fell down?"

Wu Xie decided to take the guy and have a look.

"I asked you to go over there for what?" Wang Meng said helplessly when she saw me following behind. She put down the things in her hands and came over to help me.

"I have a bad feeling. Let's go and take a look." At least the cooling time is over. According to the law of novels, it was not easy to be safe and sound yesterday, but something will definitely happen today.

When we arrived at the sand dune, we found that the tombstone was completely missing. Wu Xie squeaked. "Weird things happen every year, but this year there are especially many."

Looking in the direction Wu Xie pointed, I saw a meandering faint trace on the other side of the dune. Because the sand was white, the trace was very inconspicuous. Wu Xie walked by and crouched down and touched the traces that seemed to be crawling snakes.

The traces wind all the way down to what they call the "Lirenbei" mass grave under the sand valley. In this sand valley, there are more than a thousand corpses piled up.

There are various signs that the thing climbed out of the pile of dead people.

"There are really snakes in the desert..." Li Cu fell silent after saying this. The four of them looked at Haizi. There were indeed snakes in the desert.

"That makes sense." Wu Xie slapped his thigh, "So that's it!"

"Stop doing this or that, the villain dies because he talks too much, boss." Li Cu rolled his eyes and said.

"Remember those pottery jars we found in the tomb? Those were not burial objects at all, but for living people." Wu Xie said.

"For living people? Heirs of the Ancient Tomb Sect?" I looked surprised.

Wu Xiedao didn't say anything, but what about Wang Meng and Li Cu acting like brothers?

"There should be a snake incubation base below Haizi. When the snakes hatch, they will be released into the desert." Wu Xie continued: "But there is a contradiction here. I don't know if you have discovered it."

"Why do they throw snakes from the desert? To improve the ecology?" I don't quite understand.

"It's hard to say. Those murals may be the totem worship of the aboriginal people. That's not what I want to say. Look, all these corpses are under the car, which means they stayed on the sand during their lifetime. If all the corpses here are Sand is dangerous, isn’t that unwise?”

After some analysis by Wu Xie, everyone decided to stay in the car tonight.

As soon as he finished speaking, something stirred in the sandy valley where the dead were buried.

"Copy guy."

The four of them rushed down the sand dune. Wu Xie took an iron rod and thrust it into the place where it had just been moved. After stirring it a few times, there was nothing.

Following his example, everyone jumped in beside him. Logically speaking, sand is not water, so the speed of that thing cannot be too fast.

I stood nearby and watched the three people working for seven or eight minutes, and gradually realized that something was wrong. "The body is not that deep, right?"

"Pick the sand to see if the corpses we buried before are still there?" Wu Xie was determined to find the culprit.

"Stop digging." I frowned, and had a bad idea in my mind, "Could it be desert army ants? Those things move fast, are small in size, and are numerous in number. They can eat up all but the remains of a person in a short time." A handful of bones.”

As the backbone of the team, Wu Xie quickly made up his mind. "We can't stay in this place. Although it hasn't been dug, I think there is almost nothing underneath. From the moment we came to this area, it was like a ghost land. Something will happen to us if we stay here, although I am very curious about what will happen. No matter what happens, there's no need to take the risk. Fill everything that can hold water with water. Pack your stuff and set off before dark."

Just two or three steps out, Wang Meng let out a scream and stayed outside just above her shoulders. I opened the experience card and reached out to pull it. Then another scream was heard, and Wang Meng disappeared in front of everyone.

I inserted my arm in an attempt to pull Wang Meng out (sure enough, my strength worked wonders), but there was no one under the sand.

Li Cu was still thinking about pulling the pile of sand where Wang Meng disappeared, when Wu Xie pushed him and shouted: "Go quickly!"

I looked back at the place where Wang Meng disappeared, and thought to me, Brother Mengzi, when I go back, I will definitely ask my brother to burn your salary. I will pay homage to you during the holidays, so you can go with peace of mind.

Following closely behind the two of them, Wu Xie ran towards the sand dune where we came down, but the sand dune was too steep and he couldn't run fast on the sand. Soon Wu Xie in the front fell to the ground, and Li Cu, who was ten meters behind him, also fell. Fall to the ground.

Wu Xie stood up and wanted to run. There was a grunting sound in the sand, and something squirmed toward Wu Xie in the sand. I left Li Cu behind and ran towards Wu Xie.

Wu Xie also saw it. He gave up climbing to the top and chose to roll down the other side to escape. But that thing was faster, and half of Wu Xie's body was dragged and buried in the sand.

"I've got you!" I grabbed Wu Xie's arm tightly and tried to pull him up with anger in my Dantian.

With constant pulling, Wu Xie stopped sinking. As the sleeve moved up, I saw three scars.

[There are seventeen points in total. Every time I fail, I will cut myself here. 】

[Why seventeen times? 】

[A reliable stranger... You are the eighteenth and finally succeeded. The number is quite auspicious. 】

I released my hands that were holding Wu Xie. Wu Xie looked at me with an inquiring look, and then disappeared into the white desert.

Feeling the grunting behind me, I ran towards Li Cu, dragging and dragging him until the two of them ran into the truck bed next to Haizi.

Li Cu kept trembling, and I stared at the place where Wu Xie disappeared in a daze. Two confused people.

When I came back to my senses, Li Cu had curled up into a ball and fell asleep.
