Tomb Raider: Evolution of the Red Dragon, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

Chapter 169 Chen Wenjin: Why do you always pick on me?

"give me back!"

Chen Wenjin felt a chill on her face and knew that she had been exposed.

Jiang Hua glanced at the human skin mask in his hand and couldn't help but say, "This thing is really magical. It can't even be seen in such a heavy rain. It's amazing!"

This human skin mask can be said to be one of the most magical props in The Lost Tomb: The Dark World, and its existence completely defies common sense.

And the most important thing is that, except Wu Xie, it seems that only a few powerful people can use this thing!

In addition, there is one thing that Jiang Hua really wants to complain about: how did they change their voices?

Of course, Jiang Hua had no use for this human skin mask, so he didn't pursue it. No matter why he could change his voice, what did it have to do with him?
Chen Wenjin said: "What on earth are you going to do!"

Jiang Hua said: "I think I should be the one asking you this question? I was kind enough to help you get rid of those ticks, but you turned a blind eye to my kindness!"

Chen Wenjin: "Humph, don't think I don't know. You forced me to enter this basin for no reason. There must be some unspeakable secret!"

Jiang Hua: "Weren't you going to come in anyway?"

Chen Wenjin was speechless, but what he said was not wrong.

Jiang Hua said, "Okay, I won't talk nonsense anymore. Now there are two options before you. The first is to obey my orders and follow my arrangements. The second is to move my dagger and send you to meet your teammates."

Chen Wenjin felt a pang in her heart when she saw Jiang Hua's cold eyes.

She could feel that the man in front of her really had that kind of courage!
Chen Wenjin said: "If you dare to kill me, how are you going to explain to them?"

Jiang Hua said: "Except for Hei Xia Zi, all the others believed me unconditionally. The same goes for Zhang Qiling. Don't think that he will believe you just because he is your former teammate in the expedition team."

Chen Wenjin hesitated.

Because she found that she was like a plaything in front of Jiang Hua and could not escape from Jiang Hua's control at all!
"Hey, Mr. Jiang, what are you doing back there?"

At this time, Wang Banyue's voice came from the other side.

Apparently, the ticks on their bodies had been dealt with, so they started talking.

Hei Xiazi laughed and said, "Fatty, can't you just keep quiet and not disturb other people's fun?"

Hearing the voice from the other side, Chen Wenjin's pretty face turned red, and then she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you!"

Jiang Hua didn't say anything. He just raised his hand and pressed on Chen Wenjin's mouth, and something fell in.

"You, what did you feed me?!"

Chen Wenjin covered her throat.

Jiang Hua said: "Poison."

Chen Wenjin: "You! You are despicable!"

Jiang Hua: "This is just in case. Don't worry, as long as I find what I want, I will give you the antidote."

As he said that, he gave her the human skin mask.

Chen Wenjin gritted her teeth secretly, her eyes almost spitting fire, but at this point she had no choice but to take things one step at a time.

But she knew that she was trapped by Jiang Hua from now on.

In fact, what Jiang Hua gave her to eat was just an ordinary candy. It was not poison at all. He just wanted to make Chen Wenjin surrender.

Otherwise, Jiang Hua wouldn't be so bold as to trust her just by verbally agreeing to it.

Soon, Chen Wenjin returned to her original appearance and followed Jiang Hua back to her original position.

Wang Banyue looked at Jiang Hua with a half-smile: "Master Jiang, you really have time to spare."

Jiang Hua didn't say anything, but Chen Wenjin glared at Wang Banyue fiercely.

Wu Xie and Pan Zi looked at Jiang Hua and Chen Wenjin strangely.

As for Zhang Qiling, he frowned and looked at the two of them, wondering in his heart what Jiang Hua and Chen Wenjin had said.

Because both of them spoke in low voices, and the rain was too loud all around them, they couldn't hear clearly what Jiang Hua and the other person said.

"Take a good rest first, or you'll have a hard time later."

Jiang Hua said calmly.

After more than two hours, the rainstorm finally subsided and stopped. Everyone set off again and went deeper into the rainforest.

The group continued to move forward. After about four hours, it gradually became dark. No one moved forward in the dark. After all, it was very dangerous in the rain forest at night. Who knew a snake might pop out from somewhere?
If you are bitten, even gods cannot save you.

Everyone lit a bonfire nearby and ate something. After running around all day, everyone was a little tired, especially Wu Xie and Wang Banyue, who were bitten so many times by ticks. Although those ticks were not poisonous, they had a strong blood-sucking ability and caused numerous wounds.

So both of them are a little weak now.

Chen Wenjin got some mud from somewhere and handed it to Wu Xie and the others: "Smear the mud on your body."

Wu Xie and Wang Banyue were stunned, and then Wang Banyue said: "Sister, how can you sleep in the middle of the night with your head covered in mud?"

Wu Xie also frowned, not understanding what Chen Wenjin was trying to do.

This made Chen Wenjin frown.

But at this time Jiang Hua said: "You should believe her, she can survive by applying mud."

Wu Xie and Wang Banyue looked at each other, and Pan Zi was also a little surprised.

Although Jiang Hua had spoken, the two of them were still a little hesitant. After all, it was a bit uncomfortable to be covered in mud! On the contrary, Pan Zi didn't think about it. He just grabbed the wet mud and rubbed it on his body. After all, he was a soldier and often crawled in the mud. In addition, he trusted Jiang Hua, so he was not afraid.

Zhang Qiling and Hei Xiazi came over and started applying it, and even Chen Wenjin started applying it as well.

So, only the two of them and Jiang Hua were left standing there motionless.

"Forget it, just follow the crowd!"

Wang Banyue gritted his teeth, took the mud and started to smear it, and Wu Xie had no choice but to follow everyone.

Finally, Chen Wenjin pushed the mud in front of Jiang Hua, and Jiang Hua shook his head: "I don't need it."

Now, Wu Xie and Wang Banyue were both dumbfounded!

what's the situation!
I've already applied it, and you said you don't need it?
What the hell!

Aren’t you kidding us?
Chen Wenjin frowned: "Do you know how dangerous this place is? There are cockscomb snakes everywhere. Only this mud can isolate the temperature and prevent those cockscomb snakes from finding you!"

"is it?"

Jiang Hua smiled calmly: "I still don't need it."

Chen Wenjin was so angry that she stamped her feet and said, "Don't worry, I'll let those cockscomb snakes bite you to death!"

After saying that, he threw all the mud away.

Jiang Hua smiled and said nothing.

When Wu Xie heard that there was a crested snake, he was shocked and knew that Chen Wenjin's method was right. The mud could isolate the heat from the body surface and make the crested snake unable to detect them. It was very effective!
But I don’t know why Jiang Hua doesn’t use it?
Wu Xie thought about it and didn't take it seriously. After all, he was definitely stronger than Jiang Hua. Those crested snakes shouldn't be able to do anything to him.

So, everyone started sleeping in sleeping bags.

Although there is mud, being able to rest is already very good, so why should I care about those things?

Because in this rainforest, no one knows what dangers there may be. It doesn't mean you can be safe just by covering yourself with mud, so there must be someone to keep watch at night.

Jiang Hua didn't waste any words and said that he would guard the first shift first.

Time passed slowly.

Jiang Hua suddenly heard a rustling sound, obviously something was approaching.

Jiang Hua looked to the side and saw quite a few crested snakes with their heads erected. Some of them were poking their heads out from the leaves, and some were poking their heads out from the grass. There were so many of them that he didn't know how many there were.

However, Jiang Hua's expression did not change, and he still sat in front of the campfire, as if he didn't see the snakes.

At this moment, Chen Wenjin suddenly opened her eyes.

She had always lived in the wild and was very sensitive to all kinds of sounds. She had always been in a light sleep, so when the crested snake came, she woke up.

Chen Wenjin tilted her head and saw countless crested snakes all around her. She even dared not breathe.

He looked at Jiang Hua again, but found that Jiang Hua was as calm as ever, as if he didn't notice those crested snakes!

When Chen Wenjin saw this scene, she became a little anxious.

However, she knew that she couldn't move now. If she moved, those cockscomb snakes would definitely surround her. By then, she wouldn't have to be killed by Jiang Hua's poison, but would have been bitten to death by those cockscomb snakes!
The crested snakes clearly felt the heat of the fire, and a large number of them quickly moved towards Jiang Hua.

When Chen Wenjin saw this scene, she held her breath.

She knew that Jiang Hua was in trouble now!

Those crested snakes were approaching Jiang Hua, and many of them jumped up and wanted to bite Jiang Hua. But for some reason, those crested snakes suddenly fell to the ground, turned around and ran away!

It was like seeing a natural enemy!
What's going on?
Chen Wenjin was stunned and didn't understand for a moment.
what's the situation?
Why did all those crested snakes suddenly run away?

what happened!
However, Jiang Hua said, "Have you seen enough? It's your turn to keep watch."

Jiang Hua suddenly said lightly.

Chen Wenjin was stunned. Is this person talking to her?
She tilted her head to look at the others, and no one seemed to be awake.

So she had no choice but to leave her sleeping bag, walk to the fire, and wonder, "Why did all those cockscomb snakes run away?"

Jiang Hua said: "How should I know?"

Chen Wenjin frowned.

She felt that it must be related to Jiang Hua.

But this guy didn't want to say it, and Chen Wenjin had no choice.

Jiang Hua didn't say anything else. He walked straight to Chen Wenjin's sleeping bag and got in.

"Hey, that's mine!"

Chen Wenjin shouted.

Jiang Hua said: "I know, is there any problem?"

Chen Wenjin frowned: "Don't you have a sleeping bag?"

Jiang Hua: “No.”

Chen Wenjin was speechless. She saw that Jiang Hua didn't even have a backpack and it seemed that he really didn't have a sleeping bag. She could only give the sleeping bag to Jiang Hua helplessly.
