Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 394 Swamp Shadows
Just as the snake ball rolled past, suddenly, a figure emerged from the mud.
It's Chen Wenjin.

Perhaps she was unaware of the power of Hu Ming's Golden Eyes and was frightened by the snake ball.

Or perhaps she did it on purpose!
The commotion in the swamp immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The light here was rather dim, and in an instant, several lights shone over it.

A person covered in mud stood in waist-deep mud, staring at the crowd like a water ghost.

"What the hell is this thing?!"

The fat man shouted instinctively.

"It's Chen Wenjin!"

The young man narrowed his eyes, looked at it carefully again and again, and suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

As he spoke, he jumped into the swamp and waded towards the figure.

During their first meeting, the young man recognized Chen Wenjin, and during their subsequent discussions, he learned about Chen Wenjin's plans.

He knew that Chen Wenjin was going to act in secret and observe "his" signs.

But what the young man didn't know was that Chen Wenjin's so-called clandestine actions were incredibly dangerous!
The young man roughly deduced that this black mud swamp was most likely the lair of the crested snakes, and Chen Wenjin was alone in the swamp.
Immediately, a multitude of thoughts flashed through the young man's mind, and he subconsciously chased after Chen Wenjin's figure.

"Wenjin!!??"

Upon hearing this, Wu Sansheng, who was still on guard, suddenly stiffened and looked at the mud figure with a complicated expression.

That muddy figure was actually Chen Wenjin, whom I hadn't seen for many years?
Although he knew she was always there, he never looked for her because he was afraid. He was afraid that his actions would expose too many things!
He has too many things to consider. If he had to choose between the Nine Gates and Chen Wenjin, he would definitely choose the Nine Gates and the Wu family!
Over the years, only Xie Lianhuan has been able to contact Chen Wenjin on his behalf!
Even so, Wu Sansheng's heart almost stopped the moment he saw Chen Wenjin!
After a pause, Wu Sansheng's body had already made the first judgment.

Following closely behind the young man's pace, Wu Sansheng also rushed out in an instant.

However, unlike the young man's dashing and swift movements, Wu Sansheng was physically weak and stumbled several times in the mud before finally managing to wade to Chen Wenjin's side.

"Don't be impulsive, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Hu Ming sighed helplessly halfway through his sentence and gave up trying to stop the two.

He knew that these two were impossible to stop!

but
When Xiao Ge and Wu Sansheng rushed to the vicinity of Ni Ying, Ni Ying struggled to get up and turned to run away.

"Wenjin, Wenjin! It's me, Wu Sansheng! Don't you recognize me?"

Upon entering, Wu Sansheng could clearly smell the fragrance of the forbidden woman through the mud, further confirming that the mud-shadow was indeed Chen Wenjin.

Seeing Chen Wenjin run away into the distance without saying a word, Wu Sansheng could no longer hold back and called out repeatedly.

The guy running in the lead could almost catch Chen Wenjin at this point.

Just then, Chen Wenjin turned around and dived underwater, running towards the depths of the swamp.

At this moment, Chen Wenjin had absolutely no intention of joining up with Wu Sansheng!
"Aunt Wenjin!"

Seeing this, even Wu Xie panicked and shouted, but it was to no avail.

They watched helplessly as Chen Wenjin's figure disappeared into the darkness deep within the swamp, vanishing without a trace.

However, the young man was no pushover either. Seeing that he couldn't be stopped, he simply followed Chen Wenjin's example and plunged into the swamp, following the tracks left by Chen Wenjin.

"Ugh"

Only then did Wu Sansheng give up his futile pursuit and slump down in the shallow water of the swamp, looking dejected.

He was worried, worried about Chen Wenjin's safety.

This place is teeming with crested snakes; it's a snake paradise. They were only spared snake attacks because they were near Hu Ming. But Chen Wen...
At this moment, Wu Sansheng looked utterly dejected, his heart breaking.

Wu Xie and Pan Zi exchanged a glance; this was the first time they had ever seen such negative emotions on Wu Sansheng's face!
Wu Sansheng had always been a confident and meticulous boss, and this was the first time they had ever seen him so vulnerable.

a long time.

The two men lured Wu Sansheng back and sat around him on a rock.

Wu Sansheng stared straight at Hu Ming without saying a word.

"...Damn it...why don't you just ask me directly if you want to know? Why do you have to go through all this trouble?"

"Don't you know that your expression is frightening in this kind of environment?"

Hu Ming turned his head away guiltily.

He felt he really had wronged Wu Sansheng, but he genuinely hadn't expected Wu Sansheng to be in this situation! Just as Xie Lianhuan had said, Wu Sansheng had been suppressing his feelings for Chen Wenjin all these years!

Now, they've watched their long-lost lover run away right before their eyes...
However, Hu Ming dares to swear that Wu Sansheng was definitely responsible for the majority of the problem!
After all, you just said you were going to get a foot massage in front of her. It would be a miracle if Chen Wenjin wasn't furious!
What if Chen Wenjin had just been unable to resist wanting to see him? Wouldn't she have been driven away by his words?
You should know, nine out of ten women are petty!
Upon hearing this, Wu Sansheng's eyes lit up, and he looked at Hu Ming expectantly, but he still didn't say a word.
It's just like a child throwing a tantrum.

Therefore, no matter how old a man is, there is always a mischievous child living inside him.

She's having a disagreement with Hu Ming!
"Fine, you win, I concede."

Seeing Wu Sansheng's attitude, Hu Ming felt extremely disgusted and sighed deeply.

“That’s right, that’s Chen Wenjin. You haven’t mistaken her for someone else.”

"I, sir, did indeed get in touch with Wenjin a long time ago; she's secretly doing something."

"You know, we're searching for anyone here who could be 'him.' And didn't you see her too? Or was it Xie Lianhuan back then…?"

As he spoke, Hu Ming squinted and scanned the crowd before looking at Wu Sansheng.

The focus was mainly on the few men Wu Sansheng had brought with him who had not betrayed him.

If there really is someone named "him" in this group, then he must be among them.

Perhaps, there is no "him" among them.

Or perhaps, even after hearing the news about Chen Wenjin, "his" people still managed to control their expressions and demeanor very well.

In short, Hu Ming found nothing unusual.

It seems that trying to alert the enemy won't work. Perhaps further observation and probing are needed. Hu Ming silently withdrew his gaze.

"Yes, it was Old Xie in the camp back then. The reason you didn't recognize us like before is because we also used some of the power of the extraordinary artifacts! You're right, my men should be people who have 'him'!"

Wu Sansheng also glanced at the men, muttered to himself, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

Hu Ming swore that just a moment ago, Wu Sansheng had definitely been murderous and wanted to kill all of these guys!
Wu Sansheng was a wolf in sheep's clothing, even more ruthless than a ruthless person.

Not to mention for Chen Wenjin, he's capable of anything as long as it doesn't affect the Wu family!
Moreover, Hu Ming never expected that there would be a rare treasure in the world that could deceive his senses!

"Uncle Ming, when did you and Zhang Qiling meet with Aunt Wenjin?"

"We've been together all this way, how come I didn't know you had contact with Aunt Wenjin? Could it be that Aunt Wenjin has been in our group all along?"

Just as Wu Sansheng was about to make his move, Wu Xie's bewildered voice rang out. Wu Sansheng sighed regretfully, temporarily setting aside his ruthless thoughts.

At the very least, you shouldn't do this kind of thing in front of your nephew.

The naive people of today cannot bear to see this scene, cannot bear to see someone stabbing their own people in the back.
