[Notes on Tomb Raiders] Return to Wushan

Chapter 42

I was surrounded by endless darkness, countless fragments of memories drifted by in front of my eyes one by one, I tried to reach out to grab them, but I couldn’t catch anything, I was floating in nothingness, there was no concept of time here, sporadic voices came from time to time , so small that it is difficult to distinguish, I wait quietly for the end of this drifting trip.

My thinking couldn't work, and I was in a hazy state. After an unknown period of time, a faint light suddenly appeared in front of me. I could perceive its direction. I instinctively swam towards that light, and the light gradually expanded and became brighter.

I opened my eyes, my sight was covered in the twilight of white flowers, and my perception came back to my body bit by bit. I blinked hard, and slowly adapted to the light. When I turned my head, I saw the little flower

"Brother Xiaohua, why are you dead too?"

"what?"

Xiaohua didn't turn her head around, I thought that the world after death is quite interesting, it's exactly the same as when I was alive, I said patiently

"Aren't we in the Palace of the King of Hades?"

Xiao Hua came to her senses, stretched out her hand to touch my forehead, and said to herself

"The doctor didn't say it would affect the brain, why are you so stupid?"

doctor?I hurriedly looked around, white walls, blue curtains, two bottles of drip hanging above my head, my right hand was fixed beside the bed with an indwelling needle inserted, so I am lying in the hospital now, so I am not dead? ? ?

I was so excited that I wanted to sit up, but Xiaohua got up and held me down in fright

"Don't move, you're going to die this time. The wound has just started to heal, and if it ruptures again, you'll have to go to the ICU again."

"Brother Xiaohua, what's going on, why am I in the hospital? Aren't we in Douli, Gansu, Hexi Corridor."

I have many questions stuck in my throat, Xiaohua waved his hand to signal me not to worry, he picked up the phone and pressed it, then looked at me and said

"I don't know the details. Three days ago, Wu Xie hurriedly contacted me and asked me to find a safe hospital to transfer you to another hospital. You were indeed transferred from Gansu. You just arrived here yesterday. As soon as you were admitted, Wu Xie Xie asked me and Xiuxiu to deploy manpower to garrison again, and the more the better, I have nothing to do recently, so I came here to help with the bed, they are out for dinner now, and they will come back later, you can ask them yourself when the time comes, "

I couldn't figure it out. At this moment, my lower abdomen suddenly had a dull pain. I lifted the quilt and saw that there was a thick gauze wrapped around my waist and abdomen. I was curious to poke it, but Xiaohua grabbed my wrist

"Don't move, little girl, you have to be obedient. You suffered a serious injury. The wound was deep and wide, and your internal organs were injured. I heard from Wu Xie that you were rescued in the emergency room for a day and a night before being rescued. The doctor said that the delivery was late. If you You were sent here just after being injured, and the risk of treatment is not so great. You dragged yourself to the hospital for three full days after the injury, but fortunately, someone helped you treat the wound before sending it to the hospital, so you survived to the operating room. "

I was terrified when I heard it. I didn’t know these things at all. I just felt like I had a very long dream. For three days, it is estimated that they traveled day and night to shorten the distance to such a short distance. It seems that they successfully escaped from Mu’an’s hands. yes i asked

"Why do you need to send someone to guard, I won't run away."

floret shrugged

"Wu Xie only told me the general idea, and he refused to tell me the rest. He said that your life is in danger, and the other party has a strong background. He is afraid that you will be plotted against, so he can only call in more people to protect you."

Xiaohua propped her chin curiously, looked at me and said

"Little girl, what kind of person did you provoke? The Wu family and Zhang Qiling can't handle it."

Tianzhen didn’t tell Xiaohua the reason, probably because she didn’t want to hurt Xiaohua, I faltered and didn’t know how to answer, Xiaohua kept asking me with her eyes, I was just about to change the subject, the door creaked open, and the fat man walked up to me in front of you

"Sister, you finally woke up. You fucking slept for six days, and your innocent soul almost made you sleepless."

i grin

"Don't worry, Fat Brother, I'm fine. Is your arm okay? How about Brother Tianzhen's injury?"

The fat man showed me his gauze-wrapped arm

"It's okay, it's okay to be naive, the doctor said, after half a month, we will be two heroes again."

I wanted to ask about the previous situation, but the fat man gave me a wink, I swallowed the words abruptly, and patted Xiao Hua on the shoulder naively

"Thank you, I saw your buddy looking for you on the way back, why don't you go back to the market first?"

Xiaohua sees through and doesn't say anything, so she stands up

"Okay, then I'll come back at night and bring you food by the way, text me what you want to eat."

Tianzhen bumped fists with Xiaohua, Xiaohua smiled and waved to me, I haven't seen him for a long time, Xiaohua's appearance once again caused a spiritual shock to me, tears almost flowed from my mouth, after Xiaohua left, I still looked at him reluctantly His back, naively stretched out his hand and dangled in front of my eyes

"Let's see. It's far away. How do you feel? Does the wound hurt? If it hurts, take some painkillers and I'll give you."

I felt it for a while, but the pain was not unacceptable. I shook my head, remembering the question in my heart, and hurriedly asked

"Brother Tianzhen, what happened before? Didn't you let the people of the organization detain you? How did you solve it? Why didn't I die?"

Naive habitually wanted to light a cigarette, but the younger brother glanced at him lightly, naively realized that he could not smoke, patted his clothes awkwardly to cover it up, and said to me

"Let me make a long story short. Didn't you fall into a coma after being seriously injured? The people on their side panicked. Maybe you died and they couldn't do business when they went back. Later, we held you hostage and held you in a stalemate for a long time. Seeing that you were bleeding more and more , there are still a small number of them who are unwilling to compromise. In the end, Mu An suppressed the people under him and threw us medicine to let us go. We didn’t dare to waste time after we left the underground palace. He rushed to the hospital before he died."

Naively said halfway, a little hesitant, he glanced at the little brother, sighed and said

"Sister, don't blame the little brother. He didn't really want your life. You knew the situation at the time. There was really no other way but to make such a bad move. He had already paid attention to his measures. After you were injured, it was Xiao Brother carried you out of the forest. In order to protect you, he didn't close his eyes for four days and nights. He didn't sleep for the first time in the past few days until we went to Beijing, but no matter what, it hurt you so badly , we are sorry for you."

I looked suspiciously at my little brother, then at my innocence, and said in a daze

"Brother Tianzhen, don't you know that I asked my little brother to do it? My original intention was to let my little brother finish me. He spared me my life. I was grateful to him before it was too late. How could I blame him?"

Now it's Tianzhen's turn to be confused, he and Fatty looked at each other, Tianzhen couldn't help punching the little brother, saying

"You two have discussed it? Little brother, why didn't you tell me, I've been worrying for you for several days in vain, and you are too mean!"

The little brother only answered the three words naive

"You didn't ask."

The innocence was so angry that he vomited blood, the fat man gave me a thumbs up

"Sister, you can do it, you suddenly become a hero among women, aren't you afraid?"

When the fat man said this, I remembered how I felt at the time. Before that, I had no time to be afraid. All I could think about was how to implement this matter. Now that the situation is safe and the crisis is over, I trembled after realizing it. , All of a sudden, I felt that the wound hurt so much, I felt wronged, and my forehead began to break out in cold sweat. The scene of despair in the apse was vivid in my mind, and my emotions surged up, like knocking over a five-flavored bottle. Thinking about my comfortable life before , My mentality suddenly collapsed when I compared it, I couldn't help crying, sobbing and saying

"How can I not be afraid? I'm afraid of death, okay! I fucking thought I was going to die this time, wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow Upward, a stable life is the most precious thing, woo woo woo woo... Lin Xianyi, you bastard, you fucked me up... woo woo woo"

I cried so hard that I burst out a big snot bubble during the process. The fat man and the naive immediately smiled mercilessly. They were all blown up, and how handsome they were when they were found half shirtless.

After venting my emotions, I felt comfortable all over, but my eyes were swollen badly. I blew my nose and said to them

"What should I do next? Can I hide in a remote mountain village?"

Naively reject my idea

"It's useless, the organization must have been eyeing us, but now that you are in the hospital, Xiaohua and Xiuxiu have so many people, they are afraid of their superiors, so they don't act. When you leave the hospital and Xiaohua's people leave, the organization will find us immediately Opportunity strikes at you, and you will be blind wherever you hide."

These words made me feel very heavy. The naivety made sense. Our strength is so small. How could we escape from the net of the organization? They let us go temporarily.

"It's better to let the little brother hack me to death, sooner or later I will die."

Fatty nodded in agreement when he heard that, if I can't move now, I really want to jump up and strangle him to death, even if you think so in your heart, can you pretend to comfort me, after all, I haven't hung up yet!

Naive is also frowning. On the surface it seems that the crisis has been lifted. In fact, we are just going from a desperate situation to a predicament. After thinking about it, there is no solution. We just struggle for a while. At this time, the little brother suddenly said:

"Let's go find the ultimate altar."

The three of us were startled by the little brother's words, the fat man scratched his head and said

"Brother, in terms of speed, we must not be able to compare with those turtle grandchildren. What's the use of finding a place?"

Naively thinking about the meaning of the little brother's words, he frowned and said

"Could it be, brother, you mean that we will play another game at the ultimate altar?"

The little brother nodded, neither the fat man nor I understood, the fat man asked what was going on, and thought innocently

"If we don't do anything, no matter how we go, it will be a dead end. Lin Xianyi has already pointed out the location of the altar in Dou Li. It should not be difficult to find it by referring to the map. The little brother wants to go there and make one last effort to blow up the altar. Whether it is the platform or the robbing of the glazed box, we can use the terrain of the ancient building to do a lot of maneuvering, the chance of success may not be high, but this is our only chance."
