Ghostly Eyes [Tomb Raiders]

"That's right, the Dragon Pillar must be here." Li Qiu stood up, looking at the darkness and emptiness in front of him, slightly excited to finally approach the destination.

The eldest brother jumped down first, and thoughtfully made a rope for them, and Ah Jiu accompanied Li Qiu to the ground.

As Li Qiu walked, he gradually calmed down. Why did he feel that he had always been the object of protection along the way? Ah Jiu guarded him, elder brother protected him, and even Zhang Bold didn't throw away the heavy work give him.In this dangerous underground cave, for the first time, he enjoyed the treatment of a princess with stars and moons. Although his legs were stretched and his heart was not worried, someone would take care of him properly.

Li Qiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he really looked like a princess in this way, a real princess.

A familiar name flashed across his heart, Li Qiu suddenly thought of someone at this moment.

"What are you thinking about?" Ah Jiu looked at him in a daze, and deliberately scratched his palm.

Li Qiu quickly regained his senses: "Ah, I think of the clue you said before, stealing orders. I remember that in historical legends, the god in charge of orders is Xuanwu among the four saints. In ancient times, turtles often represented Qi guide line, as a symbol of longevity and immortality. Do you remember? On the longevity wall with two yin and yang fans, there is also a Xuanwu statue."

Ah Jiu nodded: "Yes, the two sentences of 'Bei Su Yu Gui, Stealing Commander' should both refer to Bei Xuan Wu, and what needs to be suppressed by the divine dragon Tengzhu, I am afraid that there is only Xuan Wu who is also a divine beast."

"Look, it's longevity again. Is immortality so good? You can throw away everything for longevity."

"Don't think too much, if Xuanwu can lift the ghost eye curse on the Shang family, it means it's not all bad."

Speaking of this, Li Qiu suddenly remembered a very serious matter, and pulled Ah Jiu nervously: "What about you? I mean, things like ghost eyes can be considered evil after all. Can Xuanwu also help you get rid of..."

"Don't worry, my ghost eyes are different from those people. The ghost eyes have been inherited from the Tong family for hundreds of years. The Tong family is the suitable body for the ghost eyes, so you see, even the last time the ghost eyes got out of control. It didn't bite me back either, so don't worry, it doesn't matter."

Only then did Li Qiu reluctantly nod his head, as he was walking, his toe kicked something.

"Is this... the golden talisman?"

Ah Jiu illuminated it with a light. It was about an inch long, black and shiny, hard in texture, with two ancient seal characters "Mo Jin" engraved on the front, which was the qualification certification of Mo Jin Xiaowei.

"It looks familiar, isn't this Big Brother's Touching Gold Talisman?" Li Qiu looked around, in the darkness, Big Brother didn't know when he disappeared. "Where's the eldest brother? Didn't he come down first?"

"Don't panic." Ah Jiu signaled Li Qiu not to turn on the light, and led him quietly through the darkness.When his eyes got used to the complete darkness, Li Qiu found that they were walking on the first floor of the palace, and the pillars of the main hall stood in a row, like a dark forest.

Going around the gate, the two finally found a glimmer of light—the flashlight of the eldest brother was lying on the ground. In the halo of light, two identical figures were facing each other with guns, and they were tensely confronting each other.

"Big brother!"

Li Qiu and Ah Jiu jumped out of the palace, and when the confronting two saw them, they blurted out at the same time: "A Li!"

Two people, with exactly the same appearance, exactly the same clothes, even the voice and tone of voice are copied, they are really two "big brothers"!

Li Qiu clenched the golden touch talisman in his hand, his heart turned cold - the eldest brother was also tricked, and in the short 2 minutes of separation, he was copied into a paper figurine with spirits, and this time the paper figurine moved flexibly , can also talk, almost indistinguishable from a living person.

As soon as they heard the other party calling Ali, the two "big brothers" glared at each other again: "You bastard, did you call Ali too?"

"That's exactly what I'm going to say, and I'll kill you if you yell again!"

"Ali, listen to me, this guy is a fake. When I jumped down just now, I touched the golden talisman and dropped it. In the end, a piece of paper was stuck to my neck, and I turned out to be this person!"

"Shut up! Stand away, Ali, I'll subdue this impostor first, and then you can see if it's true or not."

The two exchanged a sentence, and the quarrel became more and more intense, and the empty palace was full of their angry echoes.Don't say that Ah Jiu and Li Qiu can't stand it now, if there are other people lurking in this hall or hidden dangers, they will also be attracted by their loud voices.

"Enough!" Li Qiu yelled to stop, and the two elder brothers stopped talking immediately, which shows that the princess's deterrent power is still there.

"It's easy to identify a dummy, and you don't need to work hard." Li Qiu took a deep breath, took out two highlighters from his bag, and threw them to the two big brothers: "I asked a question, and you answered it, who answered it?" Whoever is right is the real one, it's that simple!"

The two elder brothers gave each other a vicious look, "Okay, tell me."

"My question is simple: who is the princess?"

"Yes--"

"Stop!" Li Qiu interrupted them, and said: "I don't want you to say it now, it's easy to be fished in troubled waters by counterfeiters, you two turn your backs, write the name of the princess on the clothes on your chest, I'll count one or two Three, turn around together."

"Well, this method is good, so that guy won't copy my answer."

"Shut up, you will know who is true and who is false when you write it out."

The two elder brothers quickly wrote down the answer, Li Qiu saw that it was almost the same, and raised his voice, "Are you all ready?"

"All right."

Li Qiu gave Ah Jiu instructions behind his back, Ah Jiu understood and stood in front of him.

"Well, one, two, three, turn!"

The two turned around together, but what awaited them was Ah Jiu's black muzzle.Ah Jiu held two guns in both hands, one on the left and the other on the right against the two elder brothers, holding the trigger expressionlessly.

The two big brothers were taken aback for a moment, and quickly realized: "Ali, well done, so that guy can't run away!"

"Ali, let's subdue him together."

Ah Jiu's gun didn't move away, and Li Qiu, who was behind him, walked over with a frown, and saw the two elder brothers clearly, with the same answer written crookedly with a highlighter: Li Qiu.

"Unfortunately, the answer was wrong."

"What, what, how is this possible!?"

"All the answers are wrong, you two are both fakes."

The words fell, and the gun rang out, but it was Ah Jiu and the two "big brothers" who fired at the same time. Ah Jiu fired two shots in succession, hitting the shoulders and joints of the two men accurately, and the two big brothers fell backwards screaming. , but the open wound did not see a drop of red blood.Li Qiu kicked one of them away with a few steel needles in his hands, resisting the opponent's spirit.

"Tell me, where did you hide your brother!"

The paper figurine finally showed its original shape, Li Qiu felt that the "big brother" under his feet was suddenly empty, and when he looked at it again, only the clothes were left, and the body and parts of the torso disappeared.Immediately afterwards, a white paper man the same size as him sprang out from the shrunken clothes and wrapped it around him violently!

The gunshot rang out again, but it was Ah Jiu's bullet that pierced the paper man's throat. If it wasn't because of the blind spot in the direction, it would have pierced through its heavenly spirit.Li Qiu gritted his teeth and threw out three steel needles, and the paper figurine was nailed to the wall, and it recovered into a palm-sized piece of paper without struggling, and never moved again.

"A silver nail is added to the steel needle? It's amazing." Ah Jiu brushed past Li Qiu, praised him in a low voice, and then changed hands to deal with another paper figurine.Li Qiu forced a smile, pinched his elder brother's touch gold talisman and couldn't stop worrying.

"It's okay, trust your brother."

"I know, big brother is very powerful, but this paper figurine..." Li Qiu took off the paper figurine and shook it, trying to discern the mystery in it.If Zhang Bold and Shang Feijie's paper dolls are just puppets, then the two paper dolls of eldest brother can not only talk and talk like living people, but even have the ability to think for themselves, which is not caused by ordinary magic at all. of.

Ah Jiu was about to carefully examine the paper figurine this time, when he suddenly had an ominous premonition, grabbed Li Qiu and jumped over the beam.Li Qiu never doubted Ah Jiu's actions, and held his breath cooperatively. A few seconds later, a huge "rustling" sound came from all directions.

When the two fake "big brothers" were arguing with each other, Li Qiu knew that such a big commotion would inevitably lead to danger in the temple, but when he saw tens of thousands of white paper figurines emerging from every corner of the palace At that time, he was still in a cold sweat.

This is an army of paper figurines. Eerie white shadows shuttle like fish in the hall, overlapping and endless. There are a group of empty ghosts walking quietly.The paper people are light and light, they move without making a sound, and their flat faces do not have any facial features, making them extremely frightening at first glance.

Because Ah Jiu responded in a timely manner, the two were not discovered by the paper people. The paper people army soon saw the two wreckages of the same kind on the ground, and they just stopped for a while before continuing to move forward.Li Qiu looked in their direction, the place these paper figurines were going to reach was a dark sunken square outside the main hall.

"Follow up." Even if Ah Jiu didn't say anything, Li Qiu knew what to do. The elder brother must have run into these paper figurines before he would be in danger.

When they walked around the main hall, Ah Jiu suddenly stopped, looking from bottom to top, and from top to bottom, as if observing something.Before Li Qiu could speak, Ah Jiu smiled and said, "I saw it, Longzhu."

Even so, in the absence of light, what Li Qiu could see was still a mass of smear. He had no choice but to continue to pay attention to the army of paper figurines.

The team of paper figurines was huge, and the white color was eye-catching and not easy to lose. The two followed from a distance, keeping a safe enough distance.

"Ali, why did you say they gave the wrong answer just now?" Now that the situation was not so tense, Ah Jiu remembered the previous question again.After he got to know the organization, he naturally knew that Li Qiu's codename was the princess.

"I just remembered it by accident. I didn't think too much about it at the time. This is actually the secret of the organization." Li Qiu's eyes were tinged with nostalgia, and he smiled at Ah Jiu: "You never thought that the code name princess is very special. Is it feminine?"

"I feel it, but how to say it, I think it's quite suitable for you."

Li Qiu took the initiative to kiss Ah Jiu, knowing that even if his code name was A Mao and Gou, Ah Jiu would definitely praise the unique and ingenious name in different ways.But it is precisely because of this unreserved feeling that Li Qiu can speak out a deeply buried secret without any hindrance.

"It's right to be feminine, because the 'princess' was originally a woman."

Ah Jiu sighed, and soon understood: "So you are a princess, but you are not the only princess, right?"

Li Qiu nodded, "In the organization, everyone basically calls me by my code name, except for the eldest brother, who calls me A Li, because it feels more like a brother. The princess is the original founder of the organization, saying that the organization is high-ranking In fact, it’s just a group of small traders who get together to resell antiques, they are close and help each other, slowly becoming like a big family.”

"The princess is the maintainer of the organization, and the only woman among them, named Feng Wei."

"Feng...is she related to Feng Tianjiao?"

Li Qiu blinked and smiled: "I don't need to tell you, Ah Jiu, you can figure it out by yourself. That's right, Feng Wei is Feng Tianjiao's sister, but Sister Jiao didn't know it from the beginning to the end. About the organization, I only know that my sister runs an antique shop and has a few capable guys under her."
