Tomb Raider: Beginning Wu Xie was badly tricked

"He told me that he accidentally entered a corpse cave when he was a child and was trapped in it for several days. He had no choice but to eat dead human flesh to survive."

"Then he discovered that he could pass through the corpse cave unimpeded. He guessed that it might be because after eating the flesh of a dead person, corpse aura would remain on his body, which could cover up his living aura."

After listening to the little old man's words, the third uncle knew that his previous guess was not wrong.

They relied on dead human flesh to survive in this corpse cave.

"So you came up with the idea of ​​this corpse cave to rip off customers here? How much have you made over the years?"

The third uncle said nothing, but Dakui couldn't help but choked a few times.

"I was also forced to have no choice..."

Before the little old man could finish his defense, he was knocked unconscious by Dakui.

It's annoying, so it's better to shut him up for now.

Uncle San and the others didn't say anything about Dakui's move.

"Brother, do you think we should go straight through or go back in a detour?"

The third uncle couldn't make up his mind at once and couldn't help but ask Zhang Qiling for his opinion.

According to what the little old man said, there must be many dangers inside. Zhang Qiling is the strongest in their team. If he thinks there is no problem, then they can go directly through.

Zhang Qiling looked at the dark hole in front of him and said nothing.

Instead, he looked at Wu Xie, as if asking what Wu Xie meant.

Zhang Qiling's move made Third Uncle Pan Zi and the others a little confused.

I don’t understand what he means when he looks at Wu Xie. Does he want him to make the decision?

Just how is it possible? His eldest nephew is still a newbie!

Wu Xie probably guessed what Zhang Qiling was thinking. He had taken action twice before, so he must have seen something.

But can he admit it?

cannot.

"Brother, what are you looking at me for? I'm just a newbie, I don't understand this at all, okay?"

"That's right! Brother, my eldest nephew is exposed to these things for the first time and doesn't understand them at all."

However, Zhang Qiling seemed to have not heard what Wu Xie and his third uncle said, and still looked at Wu Xie intently.

It seemed that he had to say something before he could stop.

Wu Xie had no choice but to continue to express his opinions.

Why is this stuffy oil bottle so stubborn?

Based on his understanding of the original work, Aning and the others are now at the Tomb of the Warring States Period.

Although they were almost completely wiped out.

If they still have to go back and walk the mountain road, it will waste a few more days, which is unnecessary.

Anyway, they will pass through the corpse cave unscathed in the end. At most, they will only suffer a little fright and a few twists and turns.

"Actually! I think we can go directly from here. My third uncle said before that it would take a few more days to take the mountain road, which would waste a lot of time."

"Besides, with my little brother here, as long as we are careful, there shouldn't be any accidents, right?"

Wu Xie just put forward his own suggestions. Of course, he also hoped that they would follow what he said.

This saves a lot of trouble.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Qiling nodded in agreement.

He said one word to his third uncle.

"Come in, save time!"

The corner of Wu Xie's mouth twitched a little. This boring gourd kept jumping out one word after another, as if saying one more word would kill him.

As expected of a boring oil bottle, this name really fits his image.

Simply tailor-made.

The third uncle's mouth also twitched a little. Why did he think this scene was so sloppy?

I don't know whether I should follow his ideas or not.

But think about it, what Wu Xie said makes sense.

The Warring States Tomb is so rare that if they go back and walk on the road, they will waste a few days.

By the time we get to our destination, the daylilies may be cold.

Thinking of this,

The third uncle decided to follow Wu Xie's idea.

then,

Then he asked Pan Zi and Dakui to hold the wooden boat and go to the dark cave ahead...

As it goes deeper and deeper.

A foul smell wafted from an unknown place and filled their nostrils.

"Hmm! What smells so bad? Corpse odor?"

Dakui slapped his nose with his hand, looking disgusted.

However,

There was no answer to his question.

The temperature in the cave is getting colder and colder.

It's like the cool breeze of autumn has suddenly entered the twelfth lunar month of winter.

It was so cold that Wu Xie and the others couldn't help but chatter their teeth.

I subconsciously tightened my clothes.

However, it seems to be of no use.

The clothes on my body couldn't protect me from the cold at all.

This kind of cold is not like the usual cold in winter, but a kind of gloomy cold.

It was extremely cold, down to the bone.

And it's getting darker and darker in here, eerily dark. The visibility was greatly reduced, and even the light from the searchlight was swallowed up by the endless darkness ahead.

It seemed to be blocked by some thick black fog, and could only be seen within two meters of himself.

Wu Xie knew that they had truly entered the corpse cave.

Through the hole not far ahead, you should reach the corpse place!

Sudden!

Dakui exclaimed and pointed not far ahead with a horrified expression.

"Third Master! Then...what is that?"

Everyone followed the direction of Dakui's finger.

Suddenly many blue light spots appeared, as if they appeared out of thin air.

The light spots were shadowy, moving and floating from time to time.

It looks a bit like a bunch of fireflies dancing there.

But this scene doesn't make people feel beautiful, but rather very weird.

This scene suddenly appeared in this pitch-black cave.

It looks more like a moving will-o'-the-wisp.

Uncle San roughly guessed what it was.

But he brought Wu Xie out this time just to train him.

"Nephew, you've read more books, can you tell me what's going on?"

"Uncle, aren't you trying to trick me? Does this have anything to do with reading?"

"I'm not studying biology or physics."

"But I've actually seen something like this. When I was in college, I saw an experiment done by a senior from the next department, which was a bit similar to the current situation."

"This thing looks like a kind of phosphine, a kind of phosphorus fire, secreted by a corpse when it rots. It will spontaneously ignite when it encounters air, and when it burns, it emits this kind of faint blue light."

"But I think this place is very weird. No matter what this thing is, it can appear in this weird place, it must not be a good thing, so it's better to be careful."

"Don't capsize in the gutter!"

Wu Xie actually knew that it was a phosphorus fire bat.

It only exists in damp, cold, and yin-heavy places.

This kind of bat is basically not seen in other places.

When he saw these blue lights just now, he had already asked the system.

Although the distance was a bit far, Wu Xie still saw clearly that the bat was as big as a fist.

He also learned from the system that this kind of bat is extremely poisonous.

It feeds on carrion and blood.

The shadowy blue spots they saw were the phosphorescent fire secreted by the corpses.

The faint blue fluorescence was the corpse poison!

This kind of phosphorescent fire bat mostly lives in cold and humid places, and its vitality is extremely tenacious. It will immediately pounce on living things when it sees them.

It uses the corpse powder and corpse poison on their bodies to poison the prey to death, and then share the food...

Even if he knew, he couldn't say it directly! Right?

As a rookie who went to the tomb for the first time, it was impossible for him to recognize this kind of thing at a glance. This was simply unreasonable.

So he could only remind them in a roundabout way.

At least it could be a warning, right?
