Tomb Raiders: She Comes from the Ancient Martial Arts World

The next morning, everyone in the inn was awakened by Su Rige's exclamation.

Su Nan's subordinate Ye Xiao died in the camel shed, looking particularly ferocious.

Su Nan led Wu Xie, Wu Xie led Li Cu, and Ling Yue followed Li Cu. The four of them went to the scene to examine Ye Xiao's body, like a string of gourds.

Su Nan asked Wu Xie who did it, but her eyes revealed a hint of suspicion towards Wu Xie.

Ling Yue silently observed the interaction between the two.

By the end, I suddenly understood why Wu Xie's attitude towards Su Nan was a bit strange.

Previously there was no comparison, but now with Garu and Surig as a comparison, Ling Yue also noticed that Su Nan seemed to be somewhat different from her other companions.

Is this "difference" in southern Jiangsu what Wu Xie needs?

Of the four people present, only Li Cu was simply grieving for Ye Xiao's death, looking completely bewildered.

However, when Li Cu discovered that Ye Xiao had swallowed the razor blade, she seemed to be stimulated by something and showed a very strong reaction.

Wu Xie seemed to have suddenly lost his mind. Without taking anyone away, he just stood there asking Li Cu what was wrong.

The student, who was simply repeating a grade, said whatever came to mind: "His death was very similar to Huang Yan's!"

Unsurprisingly, Su Nan overheard this.

Ling Yue: "..."

Wu Xie glanced up unintentionally and met Ling Yue's indescribable gaze. He touched his nose and quickly shoved Li Cu away from there.

After pushing it twice, he suddenly remembered what Ling Yue had said last night.

Is his attitude towards Li Cu really so easy for her to misunderstand?

Wu Xie curled his fingers slightly, withdrew his hand, stuffed it into his pocket, took a few quick steps, then stopped and turned back to call to Li Cu and Ling Yue: "Hurry up, it's time to eat breakfast."

Ling Yue had already told Wu Xie about what happened last night when he got up early in the morning. However, Wu Xie was determined to stir up trouble, so when discussing Ye Xiao's death with everyone at the dinner table, he first said that Ye Xiao couldn't bear the pressure and committed suicide.

After Old Mai and others expressed strong dissatisfaction and doubt, he then deduced that Ye Xiao was likely poisoned.

In the end, everyone present was dragged into the mess, even Su Nan, Ye Xiao's boss, became a suspect.

Su Nan laughed in anger, glancing sideways at Wu Xie with dissatisfaction, and questioned in a strange tone: "Master Guan, I think you suspect everyone here, including Ma Rila, but why don't you suspect the one next to you?"

Ling Yue was right next to Wu Xie.

It's unclear whether Wu Xie was wary of Ling Yue stealing Li Cu's favor, but every time they sat down, Wu Xie would conveniently sit between Ling Yue and Li Cu.

As long as it doesn't involve Li Cu's life, Ling Yue will turn a blind eye.

Li Cu was dissatisfied, but he was too naive and could not outsmart the cunning Wu Xie.

Not to mention, Wu Xie also had a loyal assistant, Wang Meng, who was always there to cheer him on.

Now that Su Nan has turned her attention directly to Ling Yue, everyone else can't help but look over as well.

Ling Yue remained calm and composed, looking down at the mobile game Wu Xie had given her.

Ling Yue had noticed that Wang Meng was always looking down at her phone. Now that the phone could be charged here, after Wu Xie returned from looking at Ye Xiao's body this morning, he gave his phone to Ling Yue and even taught her how to play some of the built-in games on the phone.

Right now, Lingyue is at its most exciting and novel.

They didn't care how Wu Xie was going to fool the others anymore.

Wu Xie glanced at Ling Yue, who was engrossed in playing with his phone, his expression calm and composed. With just one sentence, he instantly convinced everyone: "She doesn't need to go to such lengths to kill whoever she wants."

Those who had witnessed Ling Yue's formidable physical strength and skills were speechless.

Can't refute.

After all, if Ling Yue really wanted to kill someone, it would only take one blow while they were all unconscious.

Thinking about it this way, it's actually Su Rige, the stranger we met along the way, who is more suspicious.

When he encountered the unconscious crowd, Su Rige wanted to take action, but since Ling Yue was awake, he chose a more subtle method: poisoning him to kill him.

The logic is sound.

Afterwards, Wu Xie used a cup of water to falsely accuse Li Cu of being so scared that he wet himself. Li Cu left cursing and thinking about what happened yesterday, he went to search the cellar of the camel shed and found a lot of evidence that was detrimental to Su Rige.

A mummified corpse wearing a windproof suit with knife marks, a gun, and some passports proving the identities of other people.

“There’s a lot of equipment, both old and new, in the cellar,” Li Cu said.

The claim that Su Rige opened a farm here with his son, using the geographical advantage to lure lost travelers, and then murdered and robbed them instantly became plausible.

With Wu Xie's suggestive words, Su Rige quickly let slip that Su Nan had taken the opportunity to search her and find a gun.

Surig, who had initially intended to argue and make excuses, quickly changed his tune and admitted it after Garu came in, "I killed the tour group, I killed the people, and now they're in your hands."

She looked at Su Nan, as if implying something: "Kill me."

Wu Xie said, "Whether or not to kill you is up to the police. I'm a law-abiding citizen." He raised two thumbs and pointed at himself, then extended his index finger and pointed at Su Nan with a half-smile: "You want to too?"

Once he was pinned down, Su Nan couldn't take the opportunity to do anything more to Su Rige. He could only put away his pistol, indicating that he wouldn't make a move and that he would have to ask Su Rige questions.

However, just as Su Rige was trying to take the gun, Su Nan kicked her away seemingly unintentionally.

With no one else around to restrain her, Su Rige seized the opportunity to smash her head against the wall and die.

Seeing that the person was really dead, Wu Xie casually moved the leg that had been gently pressing on Ling Yue's knee.

If necessary, Ling Yue could stop her, but Wu Xie didn't need her to live; he needed Su Rige's death to advance the subsequent plans.

That evening, the person who had been extremely thirsty became increasingly thirsty.

Ling Yue returned to his room, unloaded his equipment, and was about to rest when he turned around and saw the teapot on the table.

Thinking of the strange behavior of Master Zeng, Boss Ma, and others, and recalling the faint smell of blood on Wu Xie, he suddenly realized something. His expression changed slightly, and he put the cloth bag and bamboo cane back on his body and turned to go next door.

As they pushed open the door, they overheard Wu Xie telling Li Cu to cherish the days when he could still be a coward.

The two seemed to be having some unpleasant conversation. Hearing the door open, they both looked up.

Upon seeing that it was Ling Yue, both of them became more composed. Wang Meng, who was half-lying on the bed, also climbed down and obediently found a stool to sit down.

After Ling Yue entered, he went straight to Wu Xie, grabbed his arm, and pulled up his sleeve before Wu Xie could react.

Sure enough, he had scratches on his arms!

"You've been infected too?" Because everyone was gathered together earlier, the source of the bloody smell that Ling Yue smelled was very complicated. It wasn't until they went upstairs together that Ling Yue vaguely noticed something was wrong with Wu Xie.

Wang Meng and Li Cu were also startled and quickly came over.

Just as Wang Meng was about to say something, Wu Xie raised his hand to stop him, signaling him not to speak.

After a while, there was a knock on the door.

Wang Meng frowned and turned to open the door.

Guozi outside the door noticed that Ling Yue was also there and visibly breathed a sigh of relief. She wanted to come in, but Wang Meng blocked her from entering.

Having no other option, Guozi explained her purpose: "Brother Wang Meng, do you still have any medicine? Grandpa Zeng's condition is getting worse and he can't even get out of bed."

Wang Meng turned around and glanced at Wu Xie. Wu Xie nodded. Although Wang Meng was unwilling, she could only go and get two pills for Guo Zi.

Guozi didn't want to leave. She looked at Ling Yue hesitantly and said, "Ling Yue, Teacher Guan, of all these people, you are the only ones we can trust now. Cai Tou, Xu Lei, and Chen Chao are all dead, and Grandpa Zeng and Director Wang are also very ill. I really don't know what to do. We just want to go home..."

Ling Yue glanced at Wu Xie, who shook his head slightly.

Ling Yue could only offer Guo Zi a word of advice: "Follow them closely and don't provoke them."

Regardless of whether the fruit understood or not.

Ling Yue still harbors doubts about the "coincidence" that the crew happened to encounter Wu Xie and his friends in the poplar forest and insisted on following them.

However, since the crew hasn't revealed anything yet, Ling Yue has always maintained a sense of goodwill towards people like Guozi and Master Zeng who helped her.
