Trafford’s Trading Club

The place we are going to is an oasis with water in the desert.

The off-road vehicle slowly drove into a village-like place inside a simple earthen wall... Although they were hijacked by this group of thugs, they were not blindfolded.

Therefore, through the car window, Boss Luo still saw some people living in this simple village. Most of them were women and children.

There were two armed men guarding the place where they came in. As for the attire, most of the people here were dressed in the same clothes, with loose clothes and white cloth wrapped around their heads.

The man who called himself Aria rarely talked to anyone along the way. After announcing his home, he fell asleep easily. It was said in the past that he had not slept for two days and two nights in order to escape. He was really sleepy.

That's right, for this escape, Aria had actually fallen into the hands of this group of people. After he successfully escaped, he was caught again.

The SUV later stopped, and Aria was violently kicked awake. He cursed in a low voice, and finally, Boss Luo and Claudia were taken to a dungeon-like place.

The strange thing is that during this section of the road, the thugs seemed to have remembered that they needed to keep things secret, so they came here and covered the three people with black cloth.

"Don't think about escaping anymore. It will be your body that I bring back next time!" After the thugs finally dropped this warning, they locked the dungeon door... They passed through the only small hole in the dungeon's iron door. Through the small window, I threw a water bag and a few naan-like dry biscuits in, and then left directly.

Aria was obviously very used to this kind of treatment. She immediately picked up the water bag on the ground, drank the water and ate with big mouthfuls. At this time, Claudia was busy biting the rope tied to her hand with her teeth. .

Why is the rope tied in front instead of tying both hands behind?

Probably the thugs also know very well that if they are not using metal handcuffs or other props, but just using ropes to tie people up, it is actually the same as not being tied up... There is always a way to untie the ropes.

"These guys are so unprofessional." Claudia obviously thought of this. After easily biting off the knot on her wrist, she couldn't help showing an incredulous... or even confused look, "It's tied like this. What's the point of us? Luo, let me help you untie it...Hey, when did you untie it?"

At this time, the rope fell directly from Boss Luo's hands to the ground, and he could only be heard saying slowly: "Their supplies are probably not very good, so they use this kind of rope... Of course, maybe they also think that it is okay not to tie them up." It doesn’t matter, after all, it’s difficult for normal people to open this big iron door.”

Looking at the big iron door on the only passage in the stone chamber, Claudia couldn't help feeling desperate... She seemed to want to go to a place to vent, so she glared at Aria, "How long has it been, and you are still in the mood? Eat something?”

Aria turned around directly, but ignored her. She just covered the water bag and food tightly, as if she was afraid they would be taken away... Claudia couldn't help rolling her eyes.

In fact, she knew that this bag of water and food would most likely be their entire ration for the next day or even two days... The thugs obviously wouldn't give them preferential treatment, and it would be best if they were so hungry that they had no strength at all.

But is she still in the mood to eat at this time? The panic had already made her confused and her face turned pale. If she hadn't been the only one here, she would have cried.

"What will become of us?" Claudia's voice was filled with tears... She raised her head blankly and looked at Luo Qiu.

Boss Luo was walking around the stone room at this time, knocking on the stone wall from time to time. Hearing this, he turned around, and when he was about to say something, Aria suddenly sneered.

At this time, he straightened his body and began to slowly untie the knot in his hand. He said in British with a strong local accent: "The best case scenario is that you will be beaten by them soon." Capture them to produce offspring. These guys are in short supply of manpower, and some of them especially like children, because they like to train their children to fight from an early age, so you will keep giving birth and give birth until you die."

"You're talking nonsense!" Claudia couldn't help hugging herself in horror, her voice trembling... She was the 'iron virgin' of the academy, not to mention her boyfriend, and she didn't even have experience kissing men other than her father. No, I can't even imagine what hell it would be like to have offspring for a bunch of strange men.

Unexpectedly, Aria burst out laughing at this time, and her eyes even became somewhat vulgar...smiling vulgarly: "Do you think giving birth to a child is the end of it until you die? It's not enough! Let me tell you, this place is in short supply. Women! Especially those with fair skin like you, they like it the most! So, after you die, your body will be preserved in a special way and made into a corpse prostitute. If you take good care of it, at least it will be able to It will take several years! Tsk, tsk, tsk!”

"I don't want it!!!" Claudia screamed and stood up, her body trembling with fear.

"The method of making this kind of mummy has probably been lost." Boss Luo asked abruptly: "Have the people here discovered this method, or restored it themselves."

Aria wanted to tease the little girl to pass the time, but she didn't expect to be asked such a tricky question. She was stunned, "How do I know this? If you have the ability, just ask them directly. ?”

"Mr. Aria, have you ever seen a corpse prostitute?" Boss Luo blinked, "I have never seen it with my own eyes before, so I am a little curious... Can you describe it?"

"Oh...god!" Aria showed a painful expression at this time, patted her head vigorously, and said wailing: "I have been so unlucky for eight lifetimes, why do I meet someone like you again? A guy who likes weird stuff?"

"You?" Luo Qiu smiled slightly.

Aria subconsciously said: "I was originally a local guide, responsible for taking people into the desert... I brought a guy in not long ago, and then he was caught here by these bastards. I feel like you have the same problem. I smell Alto’s stench! You all seem to be reckless and curious guys.”

Hearing that Aria was a local and often took people in and out of the desert, Claudia glanced at Boss Luo subconsciously... Her eyes suddenly lit up slightly.

Luo Qiu knew what she was thinking, so he looked at Aria and asked, "Mr. Aria, you are a local tour guide, have you ever taken on a job like being a guide for an archaeological team?"

Aria lay down directly, propped her head on her hands and crossed her legs, yawning and said: "There are so many people who want me to be a guide, how can I remember to ask so many people? Why do you ask this?"

"We are because..." Boss Luo was about to speak... As a person who always tells the truth, he really intends to tell the purpose of this business: to find people.

Unexpectedly, Claudia hurriedly interrupted at this time, "We are also doing archeology! We are about to graduate from college, so we want to do a course study on pyramids, so we came here!"

Boss Luo opened his mouth... only to see Claudia walking quickly at this moment, pulling him back a few steps, and lowering her voice and saying: "My eldest young master... how thoughtful are you? We don't Know the details of this guy! Be on guard! Be on guard!"

Boss Luo didn't say anything directly... It would be good to be more sincere, right?

at the same time.

"Not interested, not interested." Aria's head was shaking like something... He waved his hand and immediately changed his direction to lie down.

Claudia thought for a moment, then took two steps forward and lowered her voice and said, "Mr. Aria, I want to ask you something."

Aria was unmoved.

Claudia was not discouraged and said quickly: "If you can tell me useful information, I can pay you."

Aria turned around immediately, and Claudia raised the corners of her mouth slightly, looking at Boss Luo as if triumphantly...

Boss Luo found it interesting, so he let her go... He looked at the wall of the stone chamber. In the dark place, there seemed to be some patterns carved... It was a mural, and it looked a few years old and seemed to describe a certain period in ancient Egypt. mural.

"What can you pay me?"

On the side, the conversation between Aria and Claudia continued, and Claudia said with joy: "What do you want? I can give you a knife, or pounds!"

Aria looked at Claudia unblinkingly, unmoved.

Claudia couldn't help but frowned, "Don't you like it? I can exchange it into the currency here without any problem... How about one thousand, um, two thousand dollars, exchanged for your local currency!"

"Little girl, I really like beautiful knives." Aria sighed, and then looked at Claudia as if she were looking at a crowd in need of care, "I'll give you a kind suggestion... In this place, you Even if you promise me a gold mine, it is not appropriate to give me a glass of water directly. But don’t talk about a glass of water now, you don’t even have a drop of water... Because all your water is in my hand now, haha! Waiting for you I'm thirsty and can't stand it any longer, so you have to beg me again, do you understand? Little white-skinned girl?"

"You..." Claudia couldn't help but turned pale.

She suddenly felt like a deflated balloon and stopped talking. As if she had been hit hard, she silently found a corner and huddled up.

She still had more fear at this moment...it just burst out like a torrent at this moment.

She hugged her knees and buried her head, her body trembling slightly...but she couldn't hear any crying. Aria glanced at it casually and ignored it.

Instead, he was more interested in another young man who was also trapped here... He saw Luo Qiu holding a foreign lantern and carefully looking at the murals on the wall by the candlelight.

Hmm... lantern?

Aria was startled suddenly, and then hurriedly stood up, but she was so hasty when she stood up that her left foot bumped into her right foot, and she suddenly fell to the ground again... She directly hit her teeth and made her mouth full. It's all blood.

He couldn't help but scream a few times.

Claudia heard the noise and subconsciously raised her head slightly... Her eyelashes were stuck together at this time, and her eyes were red. This female top student was so stubborn that even if she cried, she had no intention of disturbing others.

She wiped her eyes quickly, then found her voice was hoarse and deliberately lowered her voice, saying in a deep voice, "What happened?"

Aria couldn't care less about the pain at this time. She covered her mouth and pointed at Luo Qiu... the lamp in her hand in disbelief, "Lamp! Lamp! Where did he get the lamp? How could there be such a thing in this damn place?" ?!”

Claudia immediately looked at Aria in confusion, then looked at the other person with caring eyes, and said nonchalantly: "It's dark here, lighting a lamp is not a matter of course? If you want to be invisible, you can't see anything." , just close your eyes and it’ll be fine.”

Aria opened her mouth... It wasn't a matter of lighting a light when it was dark, but he had been locked in this place for a long time. He couldn't find a damn hair. Where did the light come from... It was still so exquisite. The foreign lantern!

How come you, little girl, are saying it as a matter of course!

"This place... is the inside of a pyramid." Luo Qiu put down the lantern in his hand and turned to look at Claudia and Aria.

"Pyramid?" Claudia couldn't help but was startled. She subconsciously approached Boss Luo and took a look at the murals on the wall. "What did you find... How did we end up in the pyramid? Weren't we... That group of thugs hijacked their camp? Is it a bare place?"

Boss Luo shook his head and said calmly: "This pyramid is not upward, but downward."

"What do you mean?" Claudia suddenly frowned...but her academic attributes suddenly came into play, and she was shocked with a flash of inspiration: "You mean, the pyramid was built deep underground? Inverted triangle type?"

"That should be it." Boss Luo nodded.

"Oh my God!" Claudia said in surprise: "This is really a major discovery... If what you said is true, then this pyramid may be one of the most important discoveries in human history! Build it upside down. A pyramid buried in the earth!"

Ignoring Claudia's yelling at this time, Aria even ignored the question of why Boss Luo had a foreign lamp in his hand, but asked in a deep voice: "Young man... can you understand this wall?" The painting on it?”

"I can understand a little bit." Boss Luo nodded.

Aria fell silent at this time, as if she was thinking about something, and kept silent... The stone room suddenly became eerily quiet until the big iron door of the stone room suddenly opened!

I saw three masked thugs with guns, escorting a middle-aged man with a face full of vicissitudes of life and exhaustion. But what was different from them was that these thugs gave the middle-aged man food. , obviously much more advanced.

Claudia saw this vicissitudes of life man holding a carton of milk in his hand!

The thugs quickly closed the big iron door... The middle-aged man glanced inside the stone room. He immediately saw Aria sitting on the ground covering her mouth, and subconsciously frowned.

"Aria, you failed."

All I heard was Aria sighed helplessly, "Yes, my old friend... I'm back to accompany you again. But I guess you have no chance to help me escape from this hellish place. They must have known that it was you." I was able to sneak out after you gave me help. So the plan to bring in reinforcements has been completely ruined!"

The vicissitudes of life man shook his head. He noticed that there were two more people in the stone room early in the morning. At this time, he looked with doubts, "Them?"

"I met these two kids on the road when I was escaping, and they were lucky enough to accompany me back here." Aria shrugged, and then said abruptly: "By the way, this young man seems to be just like you, and he can You can understand the paintings on the wall... Alto."

Alto... is obviously the name of this vicissitudes of life man.
