Chapter 1993 Survivors
When a knife is pressed against the neck, few people can remain calm.
This woman was no exception. When the tip of the knife touched the skin of her neck, a layer of fine goose bumps appeared. Her pupils were dilated, her eyes were dull, and she turned a deaf ear to my words.
I took another careful look at her, and her facial features, eyes, mouth, nose, etc. were exactly the same as the face in my memory.
At the same time, many doubts emerged in my mind.
Why is she still alive?
How on earth did she survive?
After a brief silence, I removed the Baipi knife from her neck and asked tentatively: "Zhuang Li?!"
When the Baipi knife was moved away, the woman finally calmed down a little and subconsciously asked, "Who are you? Do you know me?"
It’s really Zhuang Li!!
This is a person I never expected!
Initially, after the archaeological team excavated the tombs of the Anxi Protectorate, the archaeological work came to a standstill. However, not far from the tombs, a small team was still left to keep an eye on the condition of the tombs. The leader of this team
The person in front of me is Zhuang Li.
Later, the Alison Ula Desert changed, and sandstorms filled the sky, separating the entire desert from the real world. The team led by Zhuang Li was also lost in the desert!
On the eve of the accident, she had contacted the base camp intermittently, leaving behind a crucial clue - Cthulhu!
Subsequently, Zhuang Li lost all contact with him.
The archaeological team once tried to enter the desert to search for and rescue her, so they got involved with another person, this person was Li Han.
Li Han had turned into that weird look, let alone Zhuang Li. Everyone had given up any hope for a long time. Who would have thought that they would meet her here.
So, those who are at war with us...
After I came to my senses, I rushed to my master and shouted loudly: "Master, the person you want to save is not the enemy, not the enemy!!"
There are lingering sounds in the dense forest.
There are still sporadic gunshots coming from Brother Yaozi's side, and it seems they are still fighting.
I looked at Zhuang Li and said hurriedly: "Now is not the time for gossip. I am not your enemy. You should ask your people to cease fire first. If it is too late, something big will happen!!"
Zhuang Li looked at me without saying a word.
"Zhao Sen!!"
I have no choice but to mention the name of Zhao Sen, the former head of the archaeological team.
Zhuang Li's expression finally changed. He followed my example and shouted at Brother Yaozi and the others: "Cease fire, cease fire! Stop fighting!! This is a misunderstanding!!"
The gunshots from that direction disappeared as expected.
I pulled Zhuang Li up from the ground.
Zhuang Li asked with joy on his face: "Did Captain Zhao send you to rescue me? How did you get in? I'm trapped in this place. I've been looking for it for a long time, but I haven't found a way out..."
Feel sorry!
Lao Qian and the others all thought you were dead...
I muttered in my heart, paused, and said: "The situation has changed somewhat. Zhao Sen is no longer the leader of the archaeological team. We...well, we are not only here to rescue you, but we also have other tasks."
At this time, my master and others arrived.
My master was carrying a man wearing camouflage combat uniform on his shoulders, and Wushuang was following behind him.
Along with Brother Yaozi and Brother Shuisheng, there were two strange men with guns.
One of the men was injured, an arrow shot through his shoulder, and he was being supported by another man.
These two people were still vigilant and kept a certain distance from Brother Yaozi and the others. The gun in the hand of the intact man was pointed at us intentionally or unintentionally.
I took one look at the two of them and immediately recognized their identities.
The injured person's name is Anton, and the other person's name is Shi Lei.
When Qian Guangqi introduced the situation to us, everyone including Zhuang Li showed us the photos.
Plop!
My master put the man on his shoulders to the ground.
It's the same face I've seen in photos.
This man's name was Zhang Shao, and he was also one of the team members who stayed in the desert at that time.
I saw that the other person's chest was still rising and falling, so he probably wasn't dead, so I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"He was knocked unconscious. We also want to stay alive and inquire about the situation."
Wushuang explained with a pair of big white teeth.
Li Jianglong and others who were hanging at the back also arrived one after another at this moment.
Everyone had seen photos of Zhuang Li and the others, and when they saw their faces, they immediately knew why I blocked the fight.
Seeing that the lives of his three companions were not in danger, Zhuang Li also relaxed, waved to Shi Lei, and said with a smile: "It's okay, they are the people sent by Team Zhao to look for us."
Shi Lei hesitated for a moment, probably thinking that if we really had malicious intentions, there was no need to do this and just kill them directly, so he helped Anton over.
"Xinya, please help Anton take care of his wounds."
I calmed down, looked around the four people in front of me, and asked, "Are you four the only ones left? Where is Zhang Huaimin?"
Zhang Huaimin was another member of the team that stayed in the desert at that time, and was the captain of Shi Lei, Anton, and Zhang Shao.
Shi Lei raised his head and glanced at me, pursed his lips, and said, "They must have been taken away!"
"Captured?"
I was shocked: "Who was kidnapped?"
"Stop people."
"Serpy?"
I was stunned for a moment and didn't react for a while.
"They are the Cypriots in history!!"
Zhuang Li licked his lips and felt a little uplifted: "This place is simply amazing. Who dares to believe that there is actually a Cypriot tribe living here. They have not been involved in the mighty historical tide and have survived to the present day."
Now, because it is isolated from the world and has no communication with other ethnic groups, civilization has not made any progress and has basically maintained the same state as it was more than a thousand years ago.
You all don’t know how surprised I was when I saw them!!”
"Uh...well, cough, cough, cough..."
Lao Bai coughed lightly to cover up his illiterate nature: "Can you tell me more carefully, what exactly is this Cypriot?"
"They are a nomadic people in ancient times. They lived in the Ili River Basin, and there are traces of their activity throughout the history of the Western Regions!"
Zhuang Li explained patiently.
Cypriot...
Alive?
I also found it a bit unbelievable and couldn't help but ask: "Are you really sure it's a Cypriot?"
"Of course I'm sure that the Cypriots are Caucasian. It's easy to tell them apart!"
Zhuang Li was a little dissatisfied with my doubts: "Judging from their clothes and the weapons they used, they basically maintained the level of the Tang Dynasty. In other words, these Sejong Cypriots should have arrived during the Tang Dynasty.
The people here have remained isolated from the rest of the world, and civilization has not made any progress!"
When talking about this, Zhuang Li's face shone with confidence.
Only then did I remember that the scholar in front of me was a very well-known scholar in Beijing circles, and his main focus was the history of the Western Regions.
Therefore, she has no reason to admit her mistake!
If she said she is from Cypriot, then it is most likely that she is from Cypriot!!
