Tomb Raider: The Saint of Wanjiang and Her Guardians

Chapter 63: Snake-browed Bronze Fish (Revised)

"Hey? Fatty, look at that?"

The fat man looked in the direction Wuxie pointed. The two wanted to go that way, but Shunzi ran over to stop them and said in a bad tone: "Do you know what is taboo in the snow mountain?"

Fatty and Wuxie looked at each other and asked, "What's the taboo?"

"Don't listen to the guide."

Fatty: "Hey! Fox!"

Chenpi turned around and quickly threw out an iron ball. Shunzi nodded, ran over, grabbed the fox that was hit, and walked towards Chenpi with it in his arms.

Suddenly the fox bit Shunzi and tried to escape, but Cheng Liang grabbed it and tried to strangle it to death.

"Don't!"

Shunzi didn't care about the pain in his hand and stopped Cheng Liang. Chi Gu jumped off Zhang Qiling's arm and walked over curiously.

"You can't kill it. Foxes are fox spirits to us! We will be punished if we kill them!"

Cheng Liang sneered and threw the fox back into Shunzi's arms.

Shunzi opened his backpack and carefully stuffed the fox inside.

"Let's go!" Chenpi called everyone, and his apprentice pulled the horse forward!

Chi Gu jumped onto Chen Pi's other spare horse with a strong effort. Looking at Chen Pi beside him, Cheng Liang came over to lead the horse without complaint.

"From his facial features, it is indeed the only one that happened. But from his bone structure, his age is not right. Don't you think it's strange, old man?"

Chen Pi glanced sideways and said: "He is quite capable:"

Shunzi led a few people towards the hot spring they remembered, but when they arrived there was no sign of the hot spring. There was only a huge rock buried in the snow with two dragons coiled on it.

Wuxie: "Little brother!"

Zhang Qiling nodded and squatted down to investigate: "Someone has been here..."

Shunzi's face gradually became ferocious, and he pounced on Zhang Qiling, who turned his head and dodged.

Langfeng and his men stopped Shunzi, and Wuxie was a little surprised: "What happened to him?"

Chen Pi took off his gloves and pointed at Shunzi: "The fox poison has entered his body."

The guy took off Shunzi's gloves, and sure enough, the wound under the gloves had spread. The bitten area was purple and black, which was very scary.

Wu Xie and Fatty looked at each other and sighed helplessly: "It's getting dark now, we have to stop first. Shunzi can't leave like this."

Zhang Qiling on the side squatted down, reached down beside the boulder, and the boulder gradually moved away, revealing a staircase.

Several people looked at each other and asked: "Do you want to go down?"

Wu Xie looked at Shun Zi and said, "We can only go down and take a look. Otherwise... I'm afraid he won't be able to survive in this icy and snowy place."

After packing up their luggage, they walked down the stairs. The path below was not as neat as the one above. "Why does the path below look like an abandoned passage?"

Zhang Qiling shook his head: "There is a road, but the smell of sulfur is very strong here."

"Sulfur, yes! Shunzi brought us here and said there is a hot spring here!" Wuxie suddenly realized and became a little excited.

The fat man unbuttoned his coat: "Yeah, I feel like the further I go in, the hotter it gets."

After a while, everyone was unable to go on as the passage became narrower, so Fatty Wuxie and Zhang Qiling went forward to explore the way first.

Zhang Qiling looked at Chi Gu and nodded: "Don't run around."

Only Chi Gu and Cheng Liang, as well as Chen Pi and his two companions were left in the passage.

"Old man, I heard you say that this is some Jurchen tomb?" Chi Gu sat on the rock and looked at him.

Chenpi's friend got excited when he heard this: "Yes, after our research, we are basically sure that this is the site of the Jurchen Kingdom!"

Chi Gu smiled meaningfully: "Interesting..."

The two chatted for a while and tested each other until Wuxie came out and called a few people.

There is a different world behind the passage, with murals all over the walls and a huge hot spring nearby.

Wu Xie placed Shun Zi in the hot spring according to Chen Pi's instructions, and they turned to discuss the murals.

Chi Gu had no interest in this until the waiter looked at Chen Pi, and Chen Pi took out a snake-browed bronze fish.

The guy took the flashlight and shone it upwards, revealing a few lines of words on the wall: "This is the writing of the Jurchens, but unfortunately there is only one copy. If I could find the others, I would definitely know what this means!"

Wuxie took a step forward but the fat man grabbed his hand. Wuxie turned around and saw the fat man shaking his head with a serious expression.

Chen Pi took the copper fish and put it away: "Humph, this other one was originally in Xie Yuchen's hands. I had already taken it, but your third uncle snatched it away!"

Wuxie turned around somewhat embarrassedly.

Chen Pi smiled and said, "But your uncle exchanged two tombs with me, and promised to share the secrets of the bronze fish with me, but... humph, he disappeared without a trace."

Chi Gu narrowed his eyes: "But isn't Brother Xiaohua's bronze fish a relic of Xie Lianhuan? How could he give it to you?"

Chen Pi was a little surprised. Judging from their tone, he didn't expect that Chi Gu and Xie Yuchen were so familiar with each other!
