Tomb Raiders Notes - Zhangjia Mausoleum Keeper

When I regained consciousness for the first time, I felt in a trance that my cold body was being eaten by thousands of ants. I could feel pain, but the pain was not strong.This is probably the sorrow of a dead person who is buried in the soil and is bitten by insects and ants before the nerve tips have completely disappeared.

My chaotic thoughts have not yet been sorted out, and after a slight sigh in my heart, I fell into a state of unconsciousness again.I don't know how long I continued to sleep, but I always heard faint sounds around me, and occasionally someone spoke, but it was low and unreal.

Maybe it's because I miss this world too much, which makes my soul restless, and I always have an illusion that I'm still alive.I also blame Fat Brother and the others for being too stingy, they are reluctant to give me a thicker and decent coffin, and they didn’t want to bother to bury me, they buried me on the surface of the shallow soil layer, if a slightly stronger wind blows, There will be a few more heavy rains, but I will not be exposed, and then I will be exposed to the sun again. No wonder my consciousness has not disappeared, and the bugs have already started to bite me.

"These inferences are well-founded, woohoo~ these white-eyed wolves! Can't you let me go decently? At least I got to know each other. Although people die like lights, they are just a stinky skin, but I am already lonely in this world. I have no one to rely on, and now I am left alone in the barren mountains and wild mountains of the Great Northwest, this life is too embarrassing." The anger and grievances slowly gathered: "Looking back on my life, it was really hard, and I died like this. why why?"

Thinking of this, my fingers moved, my eyes opened suddenly, and my chest heaved violently with anger.I can even hear my powerful heartbeat.

"What... what's going on? Am I not dead?" I looked around in surprise, with wooden ceilings, thick curtains nailed to the walls, and a stove in the middle of the room.I subconsciously wanted to get up, but found that there was no way to do it with my own strength.

Fingers digging on the tapestry on the kang, it is hot and warm.Yes, dead people can’t feel heat and cold, but I can feel pain, and thoughts, but I still have all these?Just now I thought so much in a mess, can't I prove that I am still alive?

When I figured it out, I couldn't help being pleasantly surprised!Because he couldn't move, he tried to open his mouth and hum a few times.However, the fact is that although I am alive, I am indeed seriously injured. Even though I have exerted 100% of my strength, my throat still seems to be stuffed with cotton, and I cannot make a sound. It was more like it was about to split, so I had to let it go.

Just like that, I fell into a drowsy sleep again, and finally one day, I was awakened by a broken gong.He seemed to be asking a little excitedly: "Will it work? Can I wake up?"

It seems that someone still cares about me.Then something was poured into my mouth, and I couldn't taste it, I could only tell if it was sometimes cold or hot.

Time seemed to pass for a long time, but after all, I didn't have the strength to open my eyes again.The feeling of being bitten by ants on his body continued, but the pain became less and less obvious.Gradually, it slowly disappeared.

At this time, another terrible idea popped up?Am I paralyzed?Turned into a vegetable?

"This... thought is like a pot of cold water extinguishing all hope in my heart, so it would be better to die directly." After making up my mind, I began to refuse to eat, no matter what someone came to feed me, I would never swallow it .

On this day, someone poured something into my mouth again. I pressed my lips tightly and let it flow down the corner of my mouth to my neck, it was cool.The person feeding the medicine sighed slightly, and brought me a soft towel to wipe it off for me.After everything was dealt with, he held my hand again and took my pulse.

After a long time, when I thought I had finally fooled it, I never thought that he would lean into my ear and start talking to me.The words are also very ordinary, nothing more than describing to me the scenery outside the house, how beautiful it is, why are you still awake?

"I want to wake up too! The point is, can I still wake up? No! I haven't been able to open my eyes since I woke up that time, but my consciousness is still there, and I can't even listen to what the other party says to me. Clear. How is this state defined in the medical state, the living dead?"

"Brother, brother." Someone came in yelling from outside, and couldn't help but stagnate when they saw the scene in the room.After hesitating, he walked over and said, "Isn't this girl eating?"

The person sitting on the bed didn't answer.

"According to me, your warm treatment is ineffective. You get up, and Tianzhen and I specially made a bowl of bitter medicine for her, and kept her awake when she drank it. "

The person at the head of the bed still didn't make a sound.After a while, she said, "She won't eat anything now."

"Oh, don't spoil her. Of course you can't feed her like this. You have to find such a big tube, insert it into her throat, and pour it in directly. If it doesn't work, use a big needle to inject it. You can use whichever method is easier. kind"

The visitor was talking nonsense, and I was so angry that I wanted to jump up and hit someone.

But fortunately someone stopped him, scolded him and said with a laugh: "I just scare her..."

I thought that this person probably had a grudge against me all the time, so he would take revenge on me when he got the chance.Before I could think about it, the loud voice was pulled out of the room, and I kept my ears quiet.

After the person left, it turned out that the person sitting on the head of the bed did not move.I was a little terrified, and I prayed that this person would never really listen to that loud voice's suggestion just now.

He was silent for a long time, and there was a clear and clear stirring sound between the spoon and the bowl in his hand. For some reason, he suddenly laughed lightly, leaned into my ear again, and whispered: "I think what the fat man said makes sense. , you can’t do without medicine.”

After speaking, he picked up the bowl, took a big sip, and put his lips against mine, trying to slowly pour the medicine in his mouth into my mouth.It's a pity that my teeth are clenched and I'm full of rejection, but it's not so easy for him to succeed.

He was not in a hurry at all, he covered my neck with his hands, touched some acupoints and pressed it, the pain was so painful that I couldn't help but groaned, my jaw fell, and the bitter taste flooded in.

To my surprise, the degree of bitterness of this medicine can really be described as amazing.Not only did the provocative tongue tingle, but it also made my brain tremble, my hairs stood on end, and I sat up subconsciously from the bed.

At that moment, my mind was very ignorant, and I didn't regain my senses for a while, I just looked around blankly.After a while, I turned my head to look at the happy face.Seeing that the corner of his mouth was broken and bleeding, I thought it must have been accidentally bitten by me when I was struggling just now.

"…………"

Silently, I wiped the medicine soup on the corner of my mouth, blushed, thinking about whether I should pretend to be amnesia again, for fear that he would settle accounts with me.

But before I could react, I was already pulled into his arms by him, but he didn't care and didn't speak, he just hugged me tightly.

That's right, after going through the catastrophe of life and death, why bother with such a big deal?

I called him in a murmur: "Da Tan!" Tears welled up in my eyes...

In fact, when I took out the earth mother bead in my heart, all the memories of the past have been restored. We have experienced so much and missed so much.When all the emotions are complicated and intertwined, once they emerge, they are out of control.

I fell on top of him and wept loudly, and the people guarding the sound called me back.Brother Fatty and Wu Xie were both surprised and happy when they saw me awake. What surprised me even more was that the old herdsman who had helped us lead the way was also among them, and behind him stood a beautiful woman with profound facial features. It's a little old, but still has the charm.

Because there were outsiders present, I was too embarrassed to cry any more, so I restrained myself and sat up, wiping away my tears with my sleeve.Da Mo really couldn't stand it anymore, so he pushed my hands aside, and carefully wiped my face with the washed handkerchief.

The fat guy next to me couldn't help making sarcastic remarks, and complained: "Zhang Zilin, why did you stay awake and refused to take medicine? The fat guy specially cooked you a bowl of refreshing soup. How about it? Is it suitable for you? Appetite?" Fat Brother asked knowingly with a smile.

"So it's you!" I gritted my teeth in hatred, and I stretched out my hand to grab him.

The fat brother quickly jumped away, pushed Wu Xie up, and shouted: "I didn't come up with this wicked idea, it was your naive brother, and I said to use Sophora flavescens, but he insisted on adding Huanglian..."

"Fatty!" Wu Xie hastily interrupted Fatty's words angrily and amusedly, and gave him a glare by the way.

Seeing that I had turned my angry eyes on him, Wu Xie quickly waved his hands and explained: "Zi Lin, don't get excited, let me explain to you! My brother said that your pulse is getting more and more stable, but you haven't woken up yet. I think You may have fallen into sleep paralysis after physical trauma. Only through strong stimulation can you wake up completely. Although those medicines are bitter, they are also harmless. We have to use this method as a last resort. Look at you If you're already awake, don't argue with us!"

After Wu Xie tried her best to comfort her, before I could express my opinion, she turned to the elder sister and said, "The patient just woke up, see if there is anything nutritious and easy to swallow, cook something for her."

The eldest sister had a kind face, nodded with a smile, and backed out.

The old herdsman smiled at me and said, "I said before that I would have a chance to let you try her handicraft, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon. Let me help!" Then he turned and left.

I saw that they were trying their best to help me, and it was not good to get entangled in the matter of bitter medicine. After all, they were also doing it for my own good. The so-called dumb people who eat yellow lotus can't tell the pain, and the description should be my current situation.

When I recovered, I remembered to ask myself that I had been beaten badly and died, why did I wake up again?Now that I wake up, except for a little skin trauma that is visible to the eyes, there is nothing wrong with it, as if I have started all over again. This is really incredible.

After listening to my question, the three of them quickly made eye contact, and Wu Xie said cautiously: "Zi Lin, don't worry, I will tell you a story first, and you will know what you are after listening to it." The situation."
