Ghostly Eyes [Tomb Raiders]

Chapter 40 Not in the Cloud

"Fake." Unexpectedly, Li Qiu refused without even thinking about it, "Don't think about it, this is another bait released by the Shang family, wanting us to fall into the bait."

The master shook his head regretfully, "Actually, I also think it's fake. There are only two yin and yang fans in the longevity screen. The yang fan is in our hands, and the yin fan was destroyed by the explosion of the Nannan Dou. How can we grow one like a leek?" There is one in the west. But the Shang family seems determined to use this as a gimmick, and offered to give up several fat buckets, claiming that there is a longevity screen in it, making it seem like we are going to go there if we are stupid."

Li Qiu shook his slightly dizzy head, and calmly said: "The Longevity Screen only works if the yin and yang are combined into one. We have a yang fan, so we definitely want to find a yin fan. If it weren't for the joint fight in southern Yunnan, I would If we have participated and know that the genital fan no longer exists, we may have really fallen into their tricks—we must beware of the Shang family, they can use everything to achieve their goals, and it has never been a good thing.”

The master sighed slightly: "You have said that, can we be careless?"

After thinking about it for a while, Li Qiu pressed his sore and swollen temples: "No, I still have to go back to find Ah Jiu. It took me a long time to restore our relationship with him. If the Shang family finds out that he is still alive, they will definitely not let it go. Although Ah Jiu Jiu doesn't change his face now, but with those eyes and earrings, as long as we meet each other, it won't take too long for the Shang family to recognize his identity."

The master raised his eyebrows: "Forget about the eyes, can't the earrings be hidden? That thing is too iconic."

"...I never mentioned it, because I know that Ah Jiu will definitely not agree. Ah Jiu's memory of that earring is deeply ingrained, and he has not even lost his memory." Li Qiu smiled bitterly, "Not to mention the pair of obsidian earrings , is the proof that the Tong family is the head of the family, the Tong family is not dead yet, to be on the safe side, it's better to keep the earrings on Ah Jiu."

"Then what about the action this time, shall we go or not?"

"What do you and your brother think?"

The master's eyes lit up: "Brother wants to go, not only to go, but also to steal chickens from the Shang family so that they don't lose money, lose their wife and lose their soldiers. As for me, a profiteer in a small business, how can a businessman do it in vain?" Is there any reason not to take advantage of the cheap?"

Li Qiu nodded: "Well, you sort out the information for me in the past two days, and I will arrange the action this time. No matter how large the Shang family arranges, we will tentatively plan for three or four people to act this time. "

The master blew his whistle in satisfaction: "Let's say it first, let's say it first, you must take me with you in this action. I have been squatting in this broken bar for two months, and my whole body is itchy and painful. Hurry up and find me some work." Let's do it."

"Uncle Hao also said to let Yang Yang be brought along, Master, are you a Gasser?"

"The moon is the first to be close to the water. Who told you to come here today? What is this called, God's will."

Li Qiu smiled and pushed the empty glass back: "I see, how can we tell our master to be idle, come, and make another glass."

The master held the cup, turned around and asked one more question: "Then for this job, do you want to bring Tong Jiu in?"

The elder brother also mentioned the same idea. After all, for people in their line of work, the name of "Ghost Eye" Tong Jiu has long been praised by the public, and he is the object of all forces, whether it is them, It's still the Shang family, and none of them want to win over Tong Jiu for their own use.

Now that such a super powerful combat power is kept by his side, but it can't be used, anyone would feel itchy and regretful.

However, Li Qiu shook his head resolutely: "There is no need to involve him in our grievances with the Shang family, and there is no reason for him to take risks for us. On the contrary, we have to hide his whereabouts well, and we cannot call Shang The family found out."

"Oh, it really is the water that was thrown by the married princess. The cabbage that has been raised for so long was raped by an outsider. My heart breaks in the Pacific—"

Li Qiu just guarded the empty bar and drank all night, the master was busy with the chores in the store, and watched a short movie in the back room after he was done, but Li Qiu always asked him to refill the wine, annoying Very annoying.So the master repeated the same trick, mixed a glass of "lost in person wine" and served it to him, after drinking a glass, Li Qiu finally calmed down.

The master carried Li Qiu to the sofa next to the bar, covered him with a blanket, and continued watching his beloved action movie.At five or six o'clock in the morning, the bar was about to close, the master yawned and washed his face, and walked to the sofa wearily.

Usually he would sleep directly on this sofa after closing the door, but now that Li Qiu was lying there, he was squeezed out of place.He always likes to be fussy about some small things, and he can't help thinking hard, whether to send Li Qiu back to the apartment first, or just make do with it, and the two of them lie down and sleep together.

In the end, sleepiness got the upper hand, the master yawned heavily, and planned to hug another blanket.Unexpectedly, at this moment, a person rushed in from the door of the bar.

half a second.

It only took less than half a second for that person to lock onto the only two people in the dark bar with a single glance, and finally his eyes trembled, falling on Li Qiu who was sleeping soundly on the sofa.

Master narrowed his eyes slightly, ouch, isn't this the legendary Tong Jiu?

However, out of the friendship of the shop owner, the master still greeted him politely, bowing his back like a dog-legged little boss: "Hey sir, you came at an unfortunate time, our shop is going to be closed, why don't you come back after dark Take a look?"

Ah Jiu seemed to be running all the way, panting slightly, walked around the nodding and bowing master and went straight into the shop.The master moved his nose, and captured many interesting details at the moment when the two brushed each other.

Ah Jiu's shirt was completely soaked with sweat, his forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat, and his shoes were covered with dust and muddy water.The master couldn't help but secretly astonished: This kid, could it be that he ran away all night?

Ah Jiu squatted down in front of the sofa, staring at the sleeping Li Qiu without blinking.This is a bar, Li Qiu's eyes are swollen and he smells of alcohol, even if he doesn't ask anything, he still knows what happened.

However, the master still talked too much on purpose: "Well, do you know this guest? He's been drinking here all night. I'm going to close the door now, but I can't wake him up no matter what. I'm worried."

"know."

"Huh, that's great, I'll leave that person to you, and I don't have to worry about sending him to a nearby hotel or somewhere."

"Thank you."

"Hey, it's nothing, nothing. I've seen this kind of lovelorn young man a lot. When he's unhappy, he pours alcohol to his death. Why bother?"

Ah Jiu put his coat on Li Qiu's body, and picked him up without saying a word, Li Qiu was fast asleep, his hot lips brushed Ah Jiu's sweaty neck, wiping out an ambiguous and familiar temperature.

Ah Jiu's eyes darkened, but she didn't stop what she was doing, and walked out of the long street in the early morning with Li Qiu in her arms.At the intersection of Changjie, a pickup truck was waiting there with the door open. The eldest brother sat in the driver's cab with his arms folded, staring at Ah Jiu unkindly.

Clear water and towels were already prepared on the back seat, Ah Jiu put Li Qiu in and sat in the back himself.

The eldest brother adjusted the rearview mirror and turned on the car: "You should wipe yourself too, your body is as wet as if you fell into the water, don't smoke my brother."

Ah Jiu agreed, but still insisted on wiping Li Qiu's hands and feet before freeing up to clean herself.

Early in the morning, the streets were rarely quiet, and the traffic was orderly before the morning rush hour.

The elder brother's light reprimand came from the front: "Next time you encounter such a thing, please inform me earlier, there is no need for you to search for someone with your legs all over the street."

"Thank you bro."

The eldest brother snorted lightly and said nothing more.He received Li Qiu's call an hour ago, but the person on the other end of the phone was Ah Jiu.Ah Jiu couldn't even breathe evenly at that time, and he explained Li Qiu's disappearance in a concise and concise manner. The elder brother was very calm. After asking about what happened, he quickly drove to pick up Ah Jiu, and then went straight to this bar street.

Li Qiu disappeared halfway, and the only mobile phone happened to be on Ah Jiu's body. Ah Jiu searched from day to night and then to dawn by himself. He ran through countless streets and alleys without stopping for a moment, but he couldn't find Li Qiu's identity at all. whereabouts.In the end, he was desperate and called the "big brother" in the phone contact.

At least he knew how to look for him. The eldest brother glanced at the preoccupied Ah Jiu from the rearview mirror, and he was not considered stupid.

"Last time it was a hospital, this time it's a bar, you are really capable."

The eldest brother originally wanted to sneer a little more, but the Ah Jiu he saw for the first time when he was driving over unconsciously appeared in front of his eyes—wretched, flustered, and a little overwhelmed that he had never seen before.

Because of the relationship between the inverted fights, he has had several encounters with "Ghost Eye" Tong Jiu in the past few years. The gap, the strange change, made the elder brother unable to calm down for a long time.

From being above tens of thousands of people in the past to now falling into the clouds, struggling with the love and hatred of ordinary people.It's not that the eldest brother has no feelings, even just looking at Ah Jiu in front of him, he will feel depressed and unwilling, regret and pity.

It was the sympathy of the strong for the strong, and the recognition of men and men. Because of their positions, they were once rivals in life and death, but when seeing Tong Jiu lose his memory and fall to this point with his own eyes, the elder brother did not feel the slightest joy Or happy.

I saw that Ah Jiu was like this, so what about Li Qiu?Seeing Ah Jiu who is homeless and has nothing, Li Qiu can only feel distressed beyond measure, and is willing to treat him well regardless of everything, and bringing him by his side is not only guilt, but also a love that is too late for too long.

There was silence in the carriage for a while, and Ah Jiu, who had been suppressed all the time, said, "Brother, I want to ask you a question about Li Qiu."

"You say it."

"Li Qiu...has he participated in tomb robbery activities before?"

The eldest brother's pupils shrank suddenly, but because he was looking straight ahead and Ah Jiu also lowered his head, so their eyes did not meet.The eldest brother's thoughts turned for a moment, and he quickly responded——

"Why are you asking this, Ali told you?"

Ah Jiu let Li Qiu lie on his lap, and gently stroked Li Qiu's smooth face with his fingers: "I... have recovered a little memory, and remembered some things that happened before. Li Qiu and I seem to have attended the same tomb Fighting activities, we should have known each other very early, and there were conflicts in the fighting, in short, very unpleasant memories."

The eldest brother was silent.

Ah Jiu closed his eyes: "I am... an out-and-out tomb robber. When I went to the Longmen Grottoes last time, I realized my previous occupation. But Li Qiu is different from me. He has his own plans. In the future, with his serious life and work, how could he appear in a tomb out of thin air?"
