Beipai Tomb Raiders Notes

"Yunfeng, don't be like this."

Brother Yu picked up the phone and asked me, "What's going on, Yunfeng? You've always been smart, and it's rare to see you get so angry."

"Brother Yu, this is not the place to talk. Let's go first and be careful not to leave footprints."

After cleaning up the scene, we drove down the mountain and into the city. I briefly recounted Uncle Cha's story. Brother Yu said, "There's no need to be angry. That fortune teller isn't related to us in any way. He was right to consider things from his own perspective."

"I know, Brother Yu. I don't mean to blame Uncle Cha. It's just that I've been under too much pressure in the past month and I lost control of my emotions just now."

"Yunfeng, do you feel any pressure in holding your head?"

"there must be."

"I know what you want to say, Brother Yu. I can't compare to the leader. I can't face any difficulties with a calm expression like the leader. We have made so many things, but we can't see them in public and dare not sell them. It's like holding a bomb in your arms every day. You never know when it will fall to the ground and explode."

"By the way, Brother Yu, did you feel anything after coming out of the hyperbaric oxygen chamber last time? Or should I say, what are the aftereffects?"

"No."

I frowned and said, "I don't know if it's because of the decompression sickness I got from the high-intensity diving a while ago. I feel like there might be something wrong with my body. Sometimes I feel sleepy, sometimes I don't sleep enough, and I feel dazed. Anyway, my mind is a mess right now."

Just now I suspected that Uncle Cha secretly accepted money from the Xia family. This doesn't make sense logically. In the past, I would never have suspected Uncle Cha. Even if I had any suspicions, I would not call him directly to ask him. I would investigate privately.

I don't know what's wrong with me, especially in the past month. I have been irritable, suspicious, and unable to concentrate. Just like what Brother Yu said after I dropped my phone just now, I have always been smart and calm, and it is rare to see me so angry.

Brother Yu slowed down the car, patted my shoulder and said soothingly, "Yunfeng, you don't have decompression sickness. Don't put pressure on yourself. What are you afraid of? We've traveled all over the country for so many years and have experienced all kinds of situations. No matter who wants to mess with us, as long as we have our heads held high and we unite, they will not get away with it. Think about the five ugly men in the past, think about the self-harming snake, think about the old scholar. When have we ever been in trouble?"

Brother Yu said with a firm look in his eyes, "No matter what secrets are hidden behind Qiandao Lake, we will definitely leave here safely with those treasures."

I nodded, closed my eyes and took a deep breath, and all kinds of memories of the past emerged in my mind.

When I opened my eyes, I saw my face in the mirror.

His face was pale, his beard was washed out, his eyes were bloodshot, and there was a slight redness under his eyelids. He didn't look well at all.

"Pull over for a moment, Brother Yu, I need to relieve myself."

After I finished draining the water, I shivered and was about to go back to the car with my pants in my pockets when I suddenly saw a dark shadow squatting under a tree not far away.

I rubbed my eyes quickly.

"Who's there!" I shouted.

The squatting black shadow suddenly stood up, and the next second, slowly turned around.

Loose hair, purple shroud, face full of maggots.

Old Master Xia!!

I was so frightened that my hair stood on end! I almost crawled back to the car.

As the car door slammed shut, I looked towards the big tree. There was nothing there, no Old Master Xia!

"What's wrong Yunfeng?"

Seeing that I looked panicked, Brother Yu immediately asked.

"Nothing...Nothing! Let's go."

Brother Yu frowned and looked at me, then hailed a taxi.

It was the middle of the night and there were not many people on the road. In addition, he had just wasted some time, so Brother Yu gradually increased his speed.

The scenery outside the car flashed by quickly. For some reason, I felt like someone was clutching my heart tightly. I began to feel dizzy, anxious, and my chest felt stuffy. On the other hand, Brother Yu was staring at the road ahead with an expressionless face. He seemed to be fine.

I began to ask myself, what was wrong with me? Why was I seeing hallucinations? Was I poisoned by the corpse? Or was I possessed by something in that village?

Just as I was wondering, suddenly, I felt a huge inertia, and because I was not wearing a seat belt, my head hit the center console directly.

Without warning, a black SUV suddenly rushed out from the side of the road without even turning on its headlights. By the time Brother Yu saw it, it was too late. He slammed on the brakes and swerved to avoid it, causing our car to crash into a tree and then into a field.

"Brother Yu...Brother Yu, wake up...someone is coming."

This car had no airbags, and all the windows on Brother Yu's side were shattered. I saw him lying on the steering wheel motionless. At the same time, in a daze, I saw the black SUV slowly driving towards us.

I touched my forehead and there was blood. It must have been scratched by broken glass.

I groped back and forth.

At this moment, the car door was suddenly opened from the outside, and I immediately pretended to be unconscious.

After the door was opened, a very unfamiliar voice was heard saying, "Miss, you're right. These people are really bold. They even dug up the old man's grave. If we had come half an hour later, they would have definitely escaped."

"Hey!"

The other person reached out and patted my face twice, saying, "Stop pretending. I know you're listening."

I touched the hidden knife and drew it out and stabbed.

The other party was prepared and not only dodged my knife, but also grabbed my wrist. At this moment, Brother Yu, who was originally "unconscious", suddenly jumped up, grabbed the other party's hair and slammed him against the center console. Then Brother Yu quickly pulled the seat belt around the man's neck and tightened it.

All this happened within a few seconds. Due to the small space inside the car, the other person was blocked by the door. Seeing that he wanted to rescue me, I knocked him down first.

"Don't move, or I'll shoot you."

A gun was pressed against my head, and the cold touch made my breath stop.

"stand up."

I immediately stood up, turned my back to him, raised my hand and said, "Brother, let's talk it over. Judging from your voice, we don't know each other, and I haven't seen what you look like. No matter who sent you here, if it's about money, it's easy to solve."

"Money? Interesting. How much money do you have?"

"It depends on how much you want, brother."

"I want 100 million, do you have it?"

In my panic, I caught a glimpse of Brother Yu's eyes and immediately shouted, "Don't move, Brother Yu! Don't move! If they want our lives, they won't talk nonsense now!"

"Fuck, you're quite understanding. Yes, someone wants to see you. As long as you cooperate, we won't kill you. After all, killing someone is troublesome to deal with."

"No problem! I fully cooperate with you! Now can you please put down the gun? It's too cold and could go off accidentally."

"Cut the nonsense!"

Not only did the other party not listen, but he held the gun tighter.

"Let's go! Get in the car!"

"No! I want to watch my buddy leave first and then I'll go with you!"

The other party waved his hand impatiently. There was blood on Brother Yu's forehead and his face was dark the whole time. Two people pointed guns at his head and forced him into the car.

The car was badly damaged, and there might be some minor problems. It took more than ten hits to finally get it back. I know Brother Yu's temper, and I know he wants to fight, so I kept winking at him, signaling him to leave quickly. If we can both leave, then one of us can leave! I'll go back to find the leader and figure out a solution.

After I kept signaling with my eyes, Brother Yu drove away, and I also understood his last look.

There were five people on the other side, estimated to be between 25 and 35 years old. Judging from their dress and tone of voice, they seemed to be gangsters, but I confirmed that I had never seen these people before, and they did not look like people from Zhenhai or Zhuji.

They searched me first, took my cell phone, and then pushed me into the car.

I sat in the third row and was pressed in the middle by two people on each side.

I had no idea what the other party's purpose was, who wanted to see me, or where the car was going in the end.

Now that I was alone, I wasn't so scared anymore, so I said, "Brother, I thought I heard you mention some young lady just now?"

The middle-aged man sitting in the passenger seat said coldly without even turning his head, "Don't talk, shut your mouth and stay still. The more you know, the faster you'll die."

"Okay, I'll stop talking. Just give me a cigarette, okay?"

I didn't say anything after the other party lit it for me.

The car windows were blacked out, so I couldn't see anything from the inside out, but I could feel the car turning a few corners from the back seat.

I held the cigarette in my mouth but didn't smoke it. Instead, I kept watching how fast it burned.
