Chapter XXXIII

Although the town of Zomai is small, it is also a town.

The people here do not live in a paradise, and the connection with the outside world is relatively close.

Hunting and fishing can fill your stomach, but you can't make money. When children go to school, they have to buy things at home, food, medicines, etc. In order to make a living, every family here is engaged in another occupation.

Handicraft.

It is processed with a special wood here, such as strange totem masks, exaggerated animal statues, and all kinds of practical small objects, such as the famous fragrant wood smoking set, which is quite famous throughout Liberia. This is all an ancestral craft, in good condition, and is very popular in the market. At the end of the day, these handicrafts are sorted and packaged, graded and shipped to Bangka for money.

The fruit wine Xing Jie said is made of a local fruit like a lime, which has a unique taste and mellow fragrance, and is very popular with the team members. However, due to the low degree, for Clara and her fierce white Russian girls, it is no different from a drink.

After more than a dozen glasses of fruit wine, Clara and his party couldn't help it.

They really couldn't figure it out, but what Xing Jie, who had just arrived here, had discovered. Even if he doesn't participate in it this time, will he just hang around here?

"As I said earlier, I really didn't find anything. You think, if there really is, what am I doing with it in my hand? Of course, it's right to make a fortune quickly, how can I make a big profit? Of course, it's an auction. ”

That's right.

Xing Jie is such a person, as long as he does not violate his principles, there is nothing that cannot be sold, which is well known to everyone.

What's more, the Shameless Five and Basang Mueller have been hired by Liu Jiaming, that is to say, no matter what Liu Jiaming's team finds, in addition to paying commissions, the excavation results have nothing to do with Xing Jie. Therefore, even if Xing Jie has any secrets, he will not make any secret deals.

Because, it is true that Liu Jiaming is Xing Jie's grandfather, but he is first of all the high-level of the guardian. And it's no secret that the relationship between the Guardian and Xing Jie is not very good. Will Xing Jie, who pursues goose plucking, change his code of conduct because the other party's team leader is a Chinese?

Of course not.

Han Zhongxuan has a deep understanding of this.

Seeing what Xing Jie said categorically, the people around him also breathed a sigh of relief. Anything that can be solved with money is not a problem, this is an axiom!

Xing Jie slowly tasted the fruit wine, glanced at the people around him, and smiled. Of course he knew what these people were drinking fruit wine for nothing here, and wasn't he thinking about how to pour something out of himself?

Regarding the information here, Xing Jie didn't really know anything. Of course, the ones he knew, the Guardians of Clara and those in 1945 knew them.

All three teams have an ancient record in their hands. It tells the story of the king of a certain country in ancient West Africa who met a god and received help when he was conquering other countries. This kind of thing happens in many countries around the world, but it is just a wild history or a myth or legend.

But this country is different, because the ending is very reversed.

Their king, with the help of the gods, gained infinite power and became immensely tall and powerful. In this way, it is natural to lead the troops to lay a large territory. But when he tried to conquer Egypt later, he was stopped by the gods. This annoyed the king, and during a banquet, the king killed the gods.

When the god died, he was reduced to a sparkling skeleton on the spot, and the king was reduced to ashes. When the king died, the country collapsed, and without the help of the gods, the country finally disappeared into the vast forest.

This is a routine, a myth is basically written like this, as if not writing like this is not enough to highlight the greatness of the gods and the insignificance of the king, as if it is not written like this, the crystal bones cannot oppress the 'small' under the king's brocade clothes.

If you hadn't done the treasure explorers, maybe this would have been thought to be a story similar to the story of greed and lack of snake swallowing elephants, and a few people would have been happy.

But how could these people, who have fought to the death countless times, not know what kind of story this tells?

Now, they are looking for this country that has disappeared into history!

This is only the first step, by determining the location of the country and then finding the legendary path to the gods! However, miraculously, they couldn't find any legends or information about the path to the gods.

So, all the teams were trapped here. In the absence of any intelligence, of course, there was no way to start the next course of action.

Xing Jie was not in a hurry, and he and Basang Carrara displayed in front of them all kinds of exquisite carvings that he had collected along the way, such as exquisite smoking utensils bought for the old patriarch, or a few masks bought for children, etc.

"Can you open your eyes a little more? Is there a fart for just sighing here?" Xing Jie couldn't put it down, and by the way, he filled a handful of high-end tobacco bought in Bangka, and smoked it deliciously.

Those people who were just about to leave heard Xing Jie say this, and they immediately came to their senses. immediately surrounded him in the middle, staring at Xing Jie with fierce eyes.

Xing Jie is not a fan of Conan, the god of death, but he likes Benedict Cumberbatch's Juan Fu. He felt that Charlotte had only squatted on the couch and smoked her pipe for a short moment, but the posture was handsome.

And the Shameless Five were the bosses who were too familiar with them, and after seeing Xing Jie clear his throat and squint and look around, he knew that this thing was starting to pretend.

As a younger brother, of course, you have to know when is the best time to pat on the back, when Xing Jie just sat down, Cheng Yu directly took a glass of fruit wine with ice and stuffed it into Xing Jie's hand.

"We all know that Zomai is a kingdom site, and its role has come to an end here. Now that we know the starting point, let's think about the wars in the first place. First of all, the seaside, the city of Monrovia only appeared in the fifteenth century, so it is excluded.

And then we combine the last part of the story, which is that the king wants to attack Egypt. But we know that from Liberia to Egypt, it basically spans the African continent, and even if Ramses II was very powerful and vast at that time, it was still some distance from West Africa.

I took a look at the mythological history of West Africa when I came, and there was a very interesting point in it. That is to kill snakes. In several different countries, there is a legend of killing snakes. The snake was so large that even an army could not cut it down. Let's not think about what exactly this snake is, let's first look at the places where this snake has appeared.

First there is Budibo in North Africa, then there is Nara, then there is Segou. There are many scholars here who believe that this is a migration of the Niger River, but O'Connell and Popodioura also have similar legends. The ruins of these two cities, Budibo and the Niger River in North Africa have nothing to do with each other.

Also, it's not enough to just look at myths. There are other things to keep an eye out for. Old Han, are you interested in taking a look at this? This is the most interesting thing I've found here!"

After finishing speaking, he casually threw the pipe in his hand to Han Zhongxuan.

The pipes are made from a locally produced wood with a very special fragrance, and the style is exquisite and the craftsmanship is exquisite. Even if you don't smoke it, it's a pleasure to play with it in your hand. Compared to heather pipes, it is not inferior, and it is excellent to give away or collect it yourself.

After playing for a while, Han Zhongxuan looked at the pipe in his hand in a daze, this is not to blame Xing Jie, he can only blame himself for being blind, and he wants to slap his face.

Why didn't you see such a special sign?

Double helix serpentine logo.

Although the appearance has changed a lot, anyone who has seen the original mark in the D2 Desert Ruins will recognize this at a glance!
