Tomb Raiders Notes - Zhangjia Mausoleum Keeper

Speaking of this, I don't know how to respond, I just looked up at the starry sky and remained silent.

Xiao Rong was obviously disappointed when he saw my reaction, he was silent for a while, and then said: "Zi Lin, I know you don't have me in your heart, but I am willing to wait, even if it's just by your side, to be with you day and night, I will Satisfied."

My eyes were still looking at the sky, and I said with a wry smile: "Sorry, senior, I don't believe in the day and night anymore. Which star in the sky you are looking at is crumbling, maybe it is me?" My tone was extremely light, and as soon as I opened my mouth, I felt my voice drift away with the wind.

"Nonsense, I don't allow you to say stupid things, no matter what, we will definitely find Jixingcao to cure your poison." Xiao Rong suddenly refuted my words, and held my already cold hand.

I didn't break free, and said lightly: "Although I have only lived for more than twenty years, it seems that I have lived for several lifetimes. It is really hard! Life is just living or dying, it is really no big deal."

"Zi Lin, you are in a disappointment right now, so you are thinking pessimistically. Seeing you like this, my heart hurts." Xiao Rong moved closer to me, wrapped my hands in his palms, and looked at me firmly. I said.

"Don't feel bad, hurry up and find out where Professor Sun is going! If you need a talent with a black account, you can ask Wu Xie for advice." I talked about him from left to right, and changed the subject.

"It's just about to die, but after a while, it's full of energy, you! It's really incomprehensible." Xiao Rong joked.

"That's right if you don't understand it. Haven't you heard of a needle in a woman's heart? I feel a little cold, why don't I go back and have an early rest?" The autumn wind blows, which makes me feel a little annoyed, so I suggested.

Xiao Rong breathed into his palm, and then pulled me up.Due to sitting for a long time, my legs were already numb, and one of my feet slipped when I couldn't stand still. Fortunately, Xiao Rong stopped me in time.

He stretched out his hand and suddenly pulled me back, and another gust of cool wind stroked me. After I was frightened, my mind cleared up a bit. I raised my head to meet his clear eyes, and only then realized that the distance between us is too close now. He One hand held me tightly, and the other wrapped around my waist, wrapping me in his arms.

"Zi Lin..." He murmured emotionally, then bowed his head and kissed me.

I hurriedly turned my head away from him.

His kiss still fell on my hair, but even so, he still refused to let go.

The atmosphere was suddenly awkward, I coughed twice, trying to break free from his confinement.He sighed softly, and said helplessly, "Be careful, stand still."

After I finished speaking, I slowly let go, and I quickly found a ladder and went down to the roof.After returning to the room, in order to avoid further entanglement, he excused that he was sleepy, went straight back to the room, and gave him the study.

In fact, Xiao Rong is very smart and really understands me very well, but I have other plans in my heart, so naturally I will not give him any hope.

When I got up the next day, Uncle Fu told me that Xiao Rong had already returned to the urban area, and he would not return until three days later.I don't know if he still cares about what happened last night and chose to avoid me on purpose.But in private, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this is also good, saving him the trouble of hiding his emotions.

I relaxed and reorganized the teacher's notes, and got many new clues.As expected, Xiao Rong didn't come back until the evening three days later. He parked the car and walked into the front yard in a hurry.

Feeling very strange, Xiao Rong sat beside me, looked up at the sky, and asked, "Zi Lin, what are you looking at?"

"Sun!" I replied thoughtfully.

"The sun has already set, so where is the sun?" Xiao Rong saw that I was tired and thought that I was unwell, so he stretched out the back of his hand and put it on my forehead.

"I'm fine, how's the investigation going?" I avoided his hand and turned to ask him, my eyes were already clear, completely different from the state just now.

Xiao Rong was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I have found it, but the whereabouts of Professor Sun... how should I put it, it is a bit erratic." On his knee, he pointed to a mark on it and said, "He got off the plane in Urumqi, but for some reason he diverted to Tianshan?"

"This is strange. It stands to reason that if Dinghu is in the Altay Mountains, he should go directly to the Altay region. Even if he needs to change planes, he shouldn't go around the Tianshan Mountains, right?" I asked suspiciously.

"Yes, he stayed in the Tianshan area for two or three days before leaving for Altay, and then entered the Qinghe nomadic area, where he disappeared without a trace." Seeing that I was still staring at the sketch, Xiao Rong simply handed it over to me. gave me.

I continued without saying a word, Xiao Rong said: "Zi Lin, I have sent some people over to investigate first, you are ready to prepare, and we will set off in two days."

"Yeah." I nodded.

After dinner, I huddled in the room, wrote a few words to Wu Xie and Fat Brother respectively, explained some things hastily, and then stuffed them in the envelope and sealed them.Xiao Rong thought I was preparing something for a trip, so he didn't bother me too much.

Early the next morning, I personally delivered the letter to Fat Brother Panjiayuan’s shop. He happened to be away, and the clerk Xiaoqing still couldn’t tell where Fat Brother was going. After further questioning, he put down his things and ordered a few words before leaving.

Then I went to buy some clothes and medicines on the plateau, and made full preparations for this trip.After shopping, seeing that it was still early and not wanting to go back, he walked around to the door of Brother Qiling's residence in Beijing, wandering back and forth, unable to lift the knocking hand, and finally just touched the doorknob lightly. and left.

I firmly believe that if there is a destiny, we will meet again, and if there is no destiny, we can't force it.With such a mood, two days later, Xiao Rong and I got on the plane to Xinjiang. Since there was no direct flight, we had to transfer to Urumqi Airport and then to Altay Airport.

Many of my colleagues were familiar faces, such as the man and woman last time. I only found out at this time that the man's surname was Hong and the woman's surname was Wang.There is also the team doctor Xiao Qi, besides the fact that the dynasty also appeared in the team last time, I thought he would die in the Yin soldiers, but I didn't expect him to be so fatal.

Another surprise is that YOYO also appeared in the team. She was still lukewarm to me and didn't bother to say hello to me.If she doesn't take the initiative, I naturally don't pay attention to her. The other five or six people seem to be Lianjiazi, who look like mercenaries.

It is worth mentioning that there is a thin old man who followed us. This person is more than 70 years old, with a thin face and pale skin. The strangest thing is that he still has a goatee. .

It is said that this person is an expert who was invited by Xiao Rong to find the dragon's acupuncture point.I don't know what his skills are for the time being. I just feel that he always looks at me with a gloomy look, and I don't know what he wants to plan?

So on this trip, I had a lot of questions, but I didn't even have a single person who could speak decently.When we arrived in the nomadic area of ​​Altay, someone was there to pick us up, and we also invited local people as guides to take us directly to a camp in the north of the Altai Mountains.

Xiao Rong actually did so many things in just one week, taking care of everything inside and out, and said to the outside world that our team came here to pan for gold and find minerals.

In the 80s, the state lifted the ban on private gold mining. Within a few years, hundreds of thousands of gold diggers flocked to the Altai Mountains like a frenzy with dreams of getting rich.It has been rich in gold since ancient times and has the reputation of "Golden Mountain".And "Altai" means gold in Mongolian.

The guide invited along was an old herdsman who spoke strong Xinjiang-style Mandarin, but he was very enthusiastic and talkative.He said that the policies in recent years have been good, the tourism industry has been liberalized on a large scale, employment opportunities have increased, and income levels have also greatly improved.

Along the way, we kept introducing the scenic spots to us, but everyone seemed to have their own concerns, and they were not very interested in viewing the scenery, so they just kept their heads on the road.I was the only one who listened with great interest. Seeing that I was very flattered, the old herdsman couldn't help but ask me to say a few more words.

"If the golden autumn is very beautiful, nine points will be in northern Xinjiang." This is really appropriate. The autumn scenery under the Altai Mountains is like a fairy tale dream. In addition to the green grassland, the endless sea of ​​flowers and the leaves are all dipped in golden yellow. The snow-capped peaks and the gorgeous sunset all make people intoxicated. At night, there is a starry sky with shining beauty in the tranquility.

The difference between me and them is that I miss such a beautiful scenery at a glance.Although I know the purpose of this trip, I also know that my wish may come true. If I miss this kind of beauty in the world again, it will be a real regret.

Seeing that I was friendly, the old herdsman was willing to chat with me about other things in private. For example, he told me that the hand-caught mutton made by his wife was particularly delicious, and the naan was also baked very well.As soon as I heard it, I became more interested, and said that I would come to ask for advice if I had the opportunity.

Because the supplies had been delivered in advance, several of us took shortcuts by riding lightly.Riding the horse on this road was very hard. When I got off the horse at night, I realized that my legs could hardly close together, and the skin on the inside of my thigh was almost completely worn out. I had to ask Xiao Qi for some horse ointment to apply, and I took care of it. .

Fortunately, we reached the first camp before dark, where we recharged and spent the night.That night I was so tired that I was about to collapse, I put on my clothes and fell asleep without even taking off my clothes. When I fell asleep in the middle of the night, I heard light footsteps at the door. When I looked up, I saw a figure drifting past. Quickly squeezed in through the crack of the door.

Xiao Rong was afraid that I would not be familiar with them, so he specially arranged a private room for me, but he didn't expect that someone would come to greet them in the middle of the night.I hurriedly got up, picked up the note, and saw that it was written crookedly: "There are ghosts in the team, be careful!"

The author has something to say:

Come on, cheer for me!Write a finale.
