After spending some effort, Mr. Otto and Aria were finally dragged out of the quicksand area.
Accordingly, their weapons have been confiscated, especially Mr. Otto's. After seeing his knife-throwing skills, Claudia very carefully pointed the gun at Aria and asked him to remove Mr. Otto's body.
Search everything inside and out to make sure he doesn't hide a deadly throwing knife in some weird place - well, like a boot or something.
The two of them were finally tied up with their hands behind their backs using a nylon rope used for climbing... After all this was done, Claudia seemed to relax a little.
"Why did you leave us quietly?" Claudia looked at the two of them coldly - she had actually discussed it with Boss Luo before, but she wanted to know the real answer.
Probably people who aspire to become mathematicians are unusually stubborn in pursuing answers.
Aria said with a frustrated face at this time: "Okay, I confess... Mr. Otto and I actually wanted to defraud you, but later we considered that it would be a burden to carry it with us, and we thought that life is more important than money.
, so I left with the supplies...I am very ashamed. I abandoned you, but you still chose to save me! God, you are such an angel, can you give me a chance to change myself? I will definitely
I will repay you well and no matter what difficulties you encounter, I will definitely lead you out of this desert?"
Claudia looked like I believe you, and fired several shots at Aria's feet, scaring Aria so much that she jumped around like an ant on a hot pot.
This was actually the first time she shot at someone's feet. She had only touched firearms in shooting clubs before. At this time, she couldn't help but her heart was beating wildly, but she acted calmly. She could only breathe a little.
confusion.
After taking a few deep breaths, Claudia looked at Boss Luo and showed a rather proud look: Look, I guessed it right, there is no magic lamp at all... You, the second-level chef
!
Boss Luo just smiled, took some water from the supply bag, and gave it to Aria and Mr. Otto. When Aria saw this, she naturally thanked her profusely.
Mr. Otto just opened his eyes. He didn't seem to have a great need for water... but his lips were already chapped. The chapped lips were slightly opened, "We meet again."
This should be what Luo Qiu said at the beginning, but he only responded now.
"Yes, we meet again, Mr. Otto." Boss Luo said patiently.
After thinking for a while, Mr. Otto suddenly whispered: "You... must be a [non-human], right?"
Boss Luo said calmly: "What is [inhuman]?"
Mr. Otto said calmly: "What non-human beings can do is [non-human]... It does not have to be the legendary creatures with supernatural powers. Those who have reached the limits of human beings after long-term training can also be... or someone
Those who are different from ordinary people can also be called [non-human]. Ordinary people cannot be as calm as you... You have been walking in the desert for a long time, not only did you not sweat on your body, but you also did not lose any physical strength or spirit.
This is not something normal humans can do."
Boss Luo said calmly: "Mr. Otto, your breath looks good too."
"What are you talking about?" Claudia walked over with a frown at this time. She was already quite dissatisfied when she saw Luo Qiu giving Aria water, but now she saw him feeding Otto water, and her dissatisfaction suddenly disappeared.
He got promoted, "These two guys, is it necessary for them to be so good?!"
Boss Luo smiled slightly and said calmly: "Classmate Claudia, Western countries are not very humanitarian."
Claudia said calmly: "I have never had a good impression of the Scum Protection Law... I won't talk to you about this anymore, what should I do now? People have been saved, and now we? Take them with us?"
Luo Qiu looked at Otto and Aria at the same time and asked calmly: "You two, I don't know why you are going in this direction?"
Aria opened her mouth and was about to say something...but Mr. Otto suddenly said: "There is an oasis ahead. We planned to go there to replenish supplies, but we unexpectedly encountered undercurrents on the way."
"You deserve it!" Claudia sneered.
Mr. Otto just pretended not to hear anything and continued to look at Boss Luo and said: "There is an ancient ruin hidden in the oasis. I think you seem to be very interested in ancient civilizations. If you go and see it in person, you might learn something."
Harvest... In other words, you originally planned to enter that oasis, after all, we met again on this road."
At this time, Claudia suddenly pulled Boss Luo aside and lowered her voice and said, "Do you believe these two guys? They are full of lies."
Luo Qiu remembered a famous saying, "The truth is also hidden in lies."
Claudia frowned and said: "I have no interest in playing charades here!"
Luo Qiu smiled and said: "Our destination is the oasis, and so is their destination... Moreover, Otto also knows that there is a historical relic hidden in the oasis - and your father, who finally studied it, is also very...
It may be this historic site. Perhaps Otto knows a lot about this kind of historic site."
"This..." Claudia was stunned, and then said helplessly: "But this Aria is a completely selfish bastard, and Otto is full of lies... We, we have to be careful!"
With that said, Claudia put her pistol into Luo Qiu's hand - after confiscating Aria's equipment, the broken pistol that was licked back from the underground pyramid returned to her hand, and she herself
It was replaced with a semi-automatic rifle.
"If something goes wrong, shoot first and then talk!" Claudia said with a solemn face at this time: "Don't have any psychological burden. This is a desert. Do you remember those thugs? Human lives here are not valuable... Only in your own life
It’s only valuable when you have it in your hands!”
Boss Luo thought for a moment and said, "Is this what your father taught you before?"
"I know it myself." Claudia said indifferently, and then shook her head: "You are just a heartless person... Sometimes, if you are too good to others, others may not repay you!"
"I will remember your teachings, Claudia," the boss said in a low voice.
She originally had a stern face, but her heart softened suddenly for some reason... She was probably a typical type who would take the soft and not the hard.
But in fact, girls, many times, don’t have much resistance to men who obey them... on important matters.
…
Later, the camel was successfully rescued from the quicksand. After experiencing many events one after another, Claudia seemed to have grown by leaps and bounds.
At this time, she directly turned over and sat on the camel, quite heroic - she asked Luo Qiu to sit on the other camel, while Aria and Mr. Otto were tied with ropes, and then sat on the camel's back
Dragging behind him.
"How long does it take to get to the oasis from here?" She looked back at Aria, her tone naturally not very friendly.
Aria is the type who is very capable of bowing her head and being able to bend and stretch. At this time, she said almost flatteringly: "Beautiful lady, the journey is not far. I will definitely arrive before you become an adult."
"Do you believe I blocked your mouth with sand?" Claudia turned back and stared at Aria fiercely.
The desert guide suddenly shrank his neck in fright... But if he wasn't really scared, he didn't know - it was as if he had returned to the prison cell in the pyramid, whether Claudia and Aria were there or not.
The tit-for-tat exchanges continued, while Boss Luo chatted with Mr. Otto.
"Mr. Otto, have you ever visited the ruins of the oasis before?"
"There was one time half a year ago." Mr. Otto said casually: "At that time, I was excavating this ruins with another archaeological team. Then something happened and we disbanded."
"Half a year ago?" Luo Qiu blinked.
At this moment, Claudia suddenly looked towards Boss Luo, but Luo Qiu gave her a calm look and told her not to speak... Claudia nodded slightly at this time, but she concentrated on
After listening to the conversation between the two, he was no longer in the mood to continue causing trouble for Aria.
"I can prove that this is true!" Aria said quickly at this time: "I led Mr. Otto and the archaeological team into the desert half a year ago."
Luo Qiu nodded and said: "The archaeological team... what type of archaeological team is it?"
Otto was pondering the true direction of Luo Qiu's question... What type of archaeological team? He thought for a while and then slowly said: "They are all ordinary people... Of course, they are all experts in their respective fields.
A rare scholar with a wealth of knowledge. However, for the sake of the secrecy of this archaeological event, neither of us revealed our original names and only used code names instead."
Luo Qiu asked expressionlessly: "What is your code name?"
At this time, Otto took a deep look at Boss Luo, and then quickly said a name: "[Golden Eyes]."
For a moment, Claudia's breathing became faster... But she remembered Boss Luo's reminder - at this time, when she had just left the pyramid, for some reason her trust in this new classmate seemed to be changing.
Impossibly improving.
She quietly took a deep breath, suppressed the agitation in her heart, and pretended not to care.
Luo Qiu asked curiously at this time: "[Golden Eyes]? Does it have any special meaning?"
Mr. Otto said calmly: "If I say that I have seen most of the treasures in the world... I have a pair of eyes that can distinguish the authenticity of treasures, would you believe it?"
Luo Qiu said noncommittally: "It takes a long time to see most of the treasures in the world...Mr. Otto, you have so much time."
"Perhaps, there are more than you think." Mr. Otto said casually.
Luo Qiu smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Otto, I wonder if you can tell me about this ancient site and the process of your exploration at that time."
At this time, Mr. Otto asked curiously: "Even if I say it, will you believe it?"
"Whether you can believe it or not is another matter." Boss Luo shook his head and said, "But at least it's better than not having any reference... right?"
"I don't know." I didn't expect Mr. Otto to say this directly.
"Are you kidding? You don't know?" Claudia couldn't bear it after all. At this time, she couldn't help but said angrily: "Do you believe it or not, I will bury you in the sand now and expose you to the sun.
Dry?!"
"Little white-skinned girl, I can testify to this matter!" Aria said quickly at this time: "Even if you bury us, I'm afraid we won't be able to tell you too much! In this situation, it's not that we can't
Cooperation, but really no ability to cooperate... There is something inexplicable about that place!"
Claudia's eyes widened and she directly raised the semi-automatic in her hand...Aria was so frightened that she quickly hid behind Mr. Otto.
Otto didn't look very afraid. He looked directly at Claudia and said: "I lost my memory after entering the ancient ruins, and the same happened to Aria. So far, I can't find the reason for losing my memory. Maybe I can recover it in the future.
...But now, I really have no way to tell you, even if you shoot."
"You think I don't dare!" Claudia gritted her teeth and put her finger on the trigger.
Boss Luo said at this time: "Those thugs may still be chasing us, and the gunfire may attract people."
Claudia had no choice but to lower her hands in frustration, but her anger had nowhere to show up, so she had no choice but to hit the camel's body hard with the handle of the gun and muttered: "Only an idiot like you can listen to these nonsense!"
"You are more reasonable, little brother Huang!" Aria glanced at Boss Luo gratefully at this time.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly threw himself on the ground and ate a mouth full of sand - it was so magical that he could stumble even while walking - he seemed to feel the malice coming from somewhere again.
"You have lost your memory." Boss Luo thought for a moment and said, "Including other members of the archaeological team, are the same true?"
Mr. Otto nodded and recalled: "In fact, the formation of the archaeological team this time is relatively mysterious. We only know that there is one funder, but none of us have seen the real face of this funder with our own eyes - but I have
I have a feeling that this investor is actually among this archaeological team, and he may have other purposes."
"Later, we gathered in a nearby city. After we got to know each other a little bit, we set off directly. The guide at the time was indeed Aria... I recommended Aria because I had met him several times before that.
cooperation, knowing his capabilities.”
"We quickly found the ancient ruins in the oasis that needed to be explored. At that time, I actually did not agree with entering the ancient ruins right away, because there were many valuable things worth studying outside the ancient ruins. However, within the team, it seemed that suddenly
There was a feeling of anxiety, and after voting, the minority obeyed the majority, and we entered this historic site without complete preparation."
"Then, I completely lost any memory after entering the ancient ruins." Mr. Otto frowned at this time: "When I came back to my senses, I had already appeared on the periphery of the ancient ruins... and it was even more incredible.
What happened is that the core building among the monuments suddenly disappeared from our eyes."
