Stein sneered: "Young man, the local government does not restrict my whereabouts, why should you interfere with my archaeological operations?" ”

This man spoke a broken Hunan dialect, and Qijian felt very uncomfortable when he heard it in his ears, and he didn't know where he learned it. Old Twilight: "They don't intervene because they don't know the extremely precious historical value of these artifacts that you stolen!" Do you want administrative and judicial intervention? I'll get it to you right away! I'm a Burke in the western part of the Western Regions, and I have an official status. ”

Stein took a closer look at the Baron's Burke title: "The title conferred by the king can only exercise jurisdiction in the jurisdiction of the king. Your offer is invalid. Aldeck, how did you follow these adventurers? What about your employer? ”

Aldecker was low in combat strength and timid, and he was shrinking behind the Seven Swords team at this time, and he also knew Stein, and when he heard this, he shouted: "Master Shi, the things you dug up here are all things left by our ancestors!" I have repented...... You are obedient and surrender, we are favored by the goddess of Loulan, and there is no opponent in this desert! ”

During his expedition to the Western Regions, Stein also encountered the goddess Loulan and her painted coffin. At that time, his team was not large, and it was difficult to carry the coffin and the corpse together. Moreover, the old man knew that once this kind of dried corpse that had existed for thousands of years was placed in a place with completely different climatic conditions, Nineteen would decay rapidly. Due to the difficulties of transportation and preservation, he did not transport away this ancient relic that shocked the world, but buried the coffin again in the yellow sand, and repeatedly determined the coordinates and location before leaving. When he returned to the Western Regions this time, he had the idea of smuggling the coffin and corpse away. What he didn't expect was that he dug three feet into the ground where the corpse had been buried, but he could never find the ancient corpse that haunted him. Hearing that the goddess of Loulan appeared again, Stein was overjoyed: "Where is it?" ”

Baron Twilight raised his hand to stop Aldeck, who had already opened his mouth: "You are not cowardly! Dare to covet the corpse left by the goddess. I don't understand, why didn't the goddess take action against you, a gravedigger and treasure thief? ”

Stein laughed: "This is God's love for me. I don't know how you got into this world. I'm sure you'll be wondering where I'm coming from, too. I'll tell you and you'll understand - it's all predestined! ”

Born in Hungary in the Holy Alliance, Stein was baptized as a Christian child by his Christian name, Marc Oriel. He is fluent in Magyar, German, Greek, Latin, French and English. In middle school, Stein began his studies in Oriental studies. During his university years, he learned Sanskrit and Persian with Rudolf von Roth, professor of Indo-European language and religious history at the University of Tübingen and one of the leading authorities on Sanskrit manuscripts, and Georg Birrell, professor of Indian philosophy and antiquities at the University of Vienna. At the same time, I came into contact with many books about the Orient.

Under the influence of the two mentors, Stein put Marco. Polo and Xuanzang regarded him as his idols, and under the influence of "The Travels of Marco Polo" and "The Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty", he decided to go to the East, through his own exploration and archaeology, to find and print the historical geography recorded in the certificate, so that the glory of historical oblivion can be reproduced in his own hands, which has become his real life goal.

Stein received his Ph.D. in philosophy from the University of Tübingen in his early twenties, and according to the profession in the Holy Way, he was a mage who was already theoretically qualified as a magician. He also participated in compulsory military training for a year, where he learned the most advanced methods of conducting military surveys at that time. These skills came in handy in his later expeditions to Central Asia.

This treasure thief is also a proper scholar. If there is any regret about his learning journey, it is probably that he failed to learn the Chinese language in school. To this end, after entering the Kirgiz space, Stein specially hired a 'master' named Jiang Xiaowan, on the one hand, to help him deal with various levels of locals, and on the other hand, to learn Chinese from the master. His lame Hunan dialect was learned from Jiang Xiaowan's mouth—in less than half a year, Stein was able to communicate with the Han people of the Western Regions in Hunan dialect alone—Sichuanese, Henan, and even Cantonese vernacular—with the result that the dialogue was often full of misunderstandings and speculations, and pain and happiness coexisted.

"When I was in school, I learned about the travels and transmission of Marco Polo and Tang Xuanzang, and I thought they were role models worth pursuing. I am determined to spend my life chasing Mark. Polo and Tang Xuanzang's deeds! Stein was proud: "I have read all their writings, and I am very distressed that I am unable to travel to the Western Regions. Later, I found this during an archaeological expedition—" He held up a hand, his hand turned away to Baron Twilight, and a large jasper ring was placed on his middle finger: "This is a leaf-shaped ring carved from the finest Western jade." Amazingly, the original color of this leaf was yellow. By chance, my blood stained the ring and opened a portal. Entering it, I found myself coming to the ancient silk road that Xuanzang had walked. Unfortunately, I didn't get enough preparation at the time, and I just looked around to lay the groundwork for my second entry. ”

The baron pressed on the ring: "Are there any conditions and variations in the use of the ring?" ”

"Young people, you only know how to care about these details! Once the portal is opened, the ring will turn grayish-white, and in about three to four months, it will turn emerald green. At this point, I can use the ring to travel back. Unfortunately, some objects that are too large are difficult to traverse. The portal only takes three to five seconds to open. ”

"Don't you think it's strange? This is a treasure that has been directed through it! ”

"I think there's a good chance that the owner of this ring is a great power who has traveled through the past from here."

Shengshengman interjected: "Stein, you also know a little Chinese, I don't know if you have heard of an ancient Chinese saying, called 'fallen leaves return to their roots', which means that every withered and withered leaf will use its own body to repay the trees he once grew and turn them into fertilizer to nourish and nourish the trees that nourish him!" ”

Stein looked down at the ring on his finger: "I admit, this increases the possibility that the owner of the ring is from Huaxia!" ”

"Have you ever wondered why your blood can activate this ring?"

"It's easy!" Stein immediately replied, "I have the same blood as the owner of the ring. But there is also a saying in Huaxia that is called nurturing grace is greater than giving birth. The ancient bloodline has no binding effect on me! ”

The baron disagreed: "You are wrong! If you hadn't had this bloodline, you would have been buried in the yellow sand by the goddess Loulan a long time ago! According to local legend, the goddess will not harm the natives unless they intentionally offend her! ”

Stein's face darkened: "What evidence do you have for this?" ”

The baron looked around at his brother: "You may not believe it. My team killed Ju Ruichao the day before yesterday and Hao Siwen yesterday. I don't know the exact strength of these two men, but my brothers, except for a few injuries, were not seriously injured or killed. You know the power of these two men, do you think my brother can achieve such results without anyone's help? ”

"In the face of me, you don't have such a chance!" Stein raised his hand to release a carrier pigeon, which was immediately caught and eaten by the baron's golden eagle: "I still have helpers, I can arrive immediately!" ”

After talking for a long time, most of the Seven Swords people hadn't guessed Boss Su's thoughts. In vain, he pulled out the purple thunder dagger: "Boss Su, this kind of person who makes a living from exploration is a hardcore character with a tough personality. Kill it! I still don't believe that so many of us can't destroy him as a high-level lawyer! When his helper comes, things will be even more difficult! ”

King Kong cat said: "There are many people and one less thing!" There are seven more Black Dragon Scrolls, which is enough! When his men came down, it was just a pot of serving! ”

"Wait until his men are down. It's useless to say such things like you, I have my own opinions! ”

Stein's subordinates are a group of migrant workers led by his master Jiang Xiaowan. Except for Jiang Xiaowan, who is an elite model of the magician profession, the other people's level and ability are similar to Hao Siwen's group of subordinates. Although Stein is of high rank, if he is alone and beaten by a group of adventurers, I am afraid that he will not be pleased.

There is impunity on both sides. But Baron Twilight had other plans: his idea was Li Dingjun's confession relayed by Bai Yiyi: unite all the forces that can be united. After all, no one could have predicted the damage that Necromantic Space might bring to this place. Stein is a force he wants to harness.

Jiang Xiaowan, shriveled and emaciated, wearing a melon-skin hat and a long gown, rode a donkey as thin as he did, unlike the migrant workers walking next to him, which is probably why the group moved much slower than Stein. The master opened his mouth, and he also spoke Hunanese: "Master Shi, what do these people want to do?" ”

Stein said: "These people say that the cultural relics and monuments here are the remains of the Chinese ancestors, and I have no right to dispose of them as a foreigner!" ”

Jiang Xiaowan turned his head and looked: "Still a lord?" Clasped his hands into fists: "Sir, there are only some things left by the ancestors of the people who have turned into foreigners here, and I can't find the Chinese ancestors' costumes, high crowns, books and texts, nor any gold, silver and jewelry, where can they be regarded as treasures?" Besides, these bones of the dead with coarse and rotten wood have been under the yellow sand for thousands of years, and they have long been ownerless and useless! It's better to let Master Shi take it away for research - it can also give these local natives a chance to work and have a round belly. ”

Nima, the Sven scum who hates these sour and vinegared things the most! The splendid culture and iron-blooded heroic style of the ancestors were not inherited, and they only learned the hypocrisy of the cub selling Yetian full of benevolence and righteousness. The baron's tongue bloomed with spring thunder: "Shut up! The merits of the ancestors here are still before Confucius established his words and virtues, what qualifications do you have to judge? ”

This roar was the skill of a lion's roar, and it shook Stein's men dizzy.

Jiang Xiaowan was stunned when he heard this: "It's been so long? ”

"What do you think?" The baron took out a copy of the "Li Bai Document": "There are also documents that can prove that this place was under the jurisdiction of my Chinese people thousands of years ago, and the value of the city is not enough to explain the preciousness of this thing!" It was sent to a foreign race by a scum like you who boasted of reading books and sages! ”
