Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 728 Five Great Masters!

Jiang Zisuan was not one of the same kind of people as Wu Erbai and his group, and they had nothing in common to talk about.

After Hu Ming finished making the arrangements, he left with his team after Wu Erbai expressed his gratitude.

From now on, the international mercenary world will lose a top sniper named Horsa, and in some corner of the world, an ordinary person living an ordinary life will be added.

For a normal person, when Jiang Zisuan first started doing this job, it was firstly to fill his stomach, and secondly to protect his sister from the shadows.

For the past ten years, he has been truly worried about his brothers. Now, with such a good opportunity, the exhausted Jiang Zisuan plans to completely retire from this industry and live an ordinary life.

“My sister said a long time ago that fallen leaves should return to their roots, and even if she dies, she should die on the land of China.”

"Although I don't have the same strong idea as my sister, after I go back, I will find an ordinary wife in a small village in China and spend the rest of my life with her."

"Goodbye, brother-in-law. One last warning: treat my sister well. If she suffers even the slightest injustice, I'm still capable of taking up a gun!"

Before leaving, Jiang Zi, unusually, didn't glare at Hu Ming. Instead, he gave Hu Ming a hug and turned away gracefully.

"The king of soldiers returns to the city for a mundane life."

Hu Ming smiled nonchalantly, then let out a strange sigh.

Many times, in many situations, people simply have no choice.

Helplessly adrift in the torrent called "fate," numbly embarking on the choices of destiny.

Doing the same job for many years doesn't necessarily mean you like it that much; it just means you have no other choice.

This is the helplessness of ordinary people.

Where in this world are there so many poems and distant places? There are more compromises and resignations than anything else.

Life is never easy.

"Tsk, could it really be that I'm getting old? Why am I suddenly becoming sentimental?"

After a long silence, Hu Ming shook his head, pulling his thoughts back, and muttered to himself.

Despite looking like he's only seventeen or eighteen, Hu Ming is actually almost sixty years old.

"Old? You, little brat! I've seen your ID card, you're only eighteen."

The mute girl, who had been quietly staying by Hu Ming's side, couldn't help but sneer when she heard this.

Hu Ming, is he perhaps a little puppy, or a little wolf?
The mute girl's expression turned strange as she looked at Hu Ming.

"You actually believe in ID cards? Do you believe that ten years from now, I'll still look the same, but the birth date on my ID card will have been pushed back ten years?"

"Little mute, you know nothing about this ridiculous world!"

Hu Ming was too lazy to explain further, so he shook his head and returned the way he came.

After cleaning up the battlefield, as expected, Wu Erbai held a victory celebration banquet to appease everyone.

He plopped down next to the young man with the mute girl in his arms, opened two cans of beer, handed one to the young man, clinked glasses with himself, and then started chugging.

The young man sighed helplessly; generally speaking, he doesn't touch these kinds of things.

However, seeing the crowd cheering, he thought for a moment and decided to just follow Hu Ming's example and drink like a dog.

"You two have such a good relationship..."

Wu Erbai couldn't help but sigh.

The guy's reputation in this industry is incredibly well-known. Everyone knows he's a cold-hearted, aloof iceberg. Someone who's so considerate of others is truly unheard of.

"Nonsense, we've known each other for almost thirty or forty years since we first met, and we've been through a lot together. It would be a miracle if we didn't get along, right?"

Hu Ming rolled his eyes.

"Thirty or forty years? That's bullshit! Thirty or forty years ago you weren't even a fertilized egg!"

The mute girl gestured dismissively.

Everyone laughed and raised their eyebrows at Hu Ming in a teasing manner.

It roughly means, "You're up to your old man dating a young girl again?"
"It's only been a few decades. I've known this wild Zhang Qiling for much longer than you have, right? I've known him since before my unlucky clansman got into trouble."

"Back in the Nine Gates tomb raiding operation, I helped him quite a bit?"

"Damn it, why aren't we on such good terms, bro?"
The blind man thought for a moment, then said with a hint of jealousy, "...Another one who brags without thinking."

The mute girl didn't believe Hu Ming and the blind man's words from the bottom of her heart, and sighed inwardly.

"Because...you're an idiot?"

The young man glanced indifferently at the blind man, seemed to think for a few seconds, and then uttered something astonishing.

"Holy crap, that's amazing! Zhang Qiling can make sarcastic remarks now?"

The blind man was the first to let out a strange cry, his eyeballs almost popping out of his sunglasses.

"Hu Ming, he's not mute?"

The mute girl's focus was different from everyone else's.

Meanwhile, the mute girl looked suspiciously at the table full of beer. She had drunk quite a bit herself, so why could she speak without finishing her drinks?
"You're the one who's mute."

The young man glanced indifferently at the mute girl.

"....."

The mute girl had no rebuttal.

"Is it because of the alcohol? But it's only one can of beer!"

Hu Ming guessed at the young man's obviously abnormal behavior.

"I have a bold idea!"

Upon hearing this, the fat man's eyes lit up, and he slyly piled most of the beer on the table in front of the young man.

"I wholeheartedly agree with your bold idea!"

Wu Xie also became interested and couldn't help but rub his hands together in anticipation.

"Neither of you can beat me."

The young man seemed to scoff dismissively.
"."

Fatty, Wu Xie.

Dude, your persona's ruined!
"Sigh, you tell me, we Southern Deaf..."

After a few rounds of drinks, the fat man suddenly became interested and pointed at the blind man.

"Bei Ya!" he said, pointing to the young man who had returned to normal.

"Eastern Heretic!"

Pointing at the amusing Wu Xie.

"West Scum!"

The message was directed at the dissatisfied Hu Ming.

"Not fat in China!"

Finally, he ignored the disdainful looks directed at him.

"With the five greatest masters of the martial world gathered together, what is Lei City but a fart? And with our cunning and shrewd second uncle added on, wouldn't it be a piece of cake?"

"Tsk, Second Uncle?"

The group clicked their tongues in unison, to show how shameless the fat man was.

"Hey, putting aside that treacherous bastard Wu Sansheng, my second uncle, the naive second uncle, that's my Fatty's second uncle! We're by seniority, not by age, so what's wrong with me calling him second uncle?"

"Compared to that blind man, I'm much better, okay?"

The fat man shamelessly defended himself.

"Thunder City!!!"

Just then, Hu Ming suddenly noticed that the mute girl's eyes had lit up.

Oh no!
Hu Ming's lips twitched.

The chubby boy seems to have said something wrong!
