Chapter 1272 The Watcher

Soon there was a rush of footsteps outside the entrance of the cave, as well as the sound of people protesting non-stop. ∏∈∏∈, the archaeological team consists of fifteen people, young and old, the oldest is about 60 years old, there are three or four middle-aged people in their 40s, and the rest are young people in their twenties , three of whom were young girls. It looks like it should be a graduate student in school or something. These people all looked very haggard and listless, but as soon as they entered, the old man yelled at Jamal Aziz with an angry expression on his face.

"I protest, you are illegally detaining us. We are legal American citizens. It is a legal act to come here for archaeology through your country's government. You have no right to detain us... This is a very barbaric act. , you savages..."

"Since we are savages, it is reasonable for us to be a little savage to you, Professor Harold Cowles. Compared with your civilized world, we are savages. You must think so in your heart. Really?" Jamal Aziz said to the old man with a mocking face.

"Isn't it? Illegal detention is enough, not to mention that you destroyed our archaeological tools, do you still want to kill us? If this is the case, then do it, I'm not afraid of death." Harold ?Professor Cowles spoke loudly, puffed out his chest, and the resolute expression on his face did not seem to be fake.

"Haha, that's great, Professor Cowles, I admire your spirit of seeing death as home, but... even if you are not afraid of death, do you still want these young lives to be buried with you? You are really selfish! "As he spoke, his eyes glanced at the other young archaeologists who were sluggish.

Professor Harold Cowles was immediately discouraged. But he snorted and said, "A savage is a savage. He kills. Wisdom threatens. God's sorrow. I feel sorry for you."

"Don't worry about us being pitiful. Let's take care of yourself first." Jamal Aziz snorted, then turned his head and pointed at Zhen Fan and said, "You... come here, you two should take care of yourself now. Let’s talk, we don’t want to hurt you, but you are absolutely not allowed to do anything that hurts us. Let me know after negotiating the conditions, no matter what the result is, we will make a break today, and we will wait for you outside the cave! "Speaking. He shook his head towards his own people, "Let's go out, give them half a hand and then take our own people out.

Judging by the way they do things, it really doesn't look like they want to kill people and get some benefits. Zhen Fan shrugged his shoulders, then walked in front of Harold Cowles, nodded to him and said, "Let's sit down and talk. None of us can escape here."

"Who are you?" Harold Cowles asked Zhen Fan suspiciously, "I've never met you before, what are we talking about? Are you Asian? Japanese or Chinese?"

"I could be considered half American,

Of course I am originally Chinese. It's just that I got a green card from the United States, lived in the United States for a long time, and... I know an American girl. That girl's name is Christina Whedon, and she made a huge sacrifice for you. You have to leave your beloved team to make money to continue your archaeological work. Because you are her friends. It's her team too, so... I think I should take you back to America. "

"Back to the United States? No, no, no, I can't go back. The research here is very valuable. If possible, the history of mankind may be rewritten. The history of human evolution may... There will be major discoveries, from apes to The process of human beings may be changed. Humans can actually break away from apes. Humans are human beings, not evolved from some kind of creature. The theory of evolution is not suitable for our current human beings." When he heard that he would let himself go back, Haro De Couls couldn't help objecting loudly, shaking his head again and again and saying, "How can I leave such a meaningful thing? Unless I die. Even if I die, I will be buried here!" He added a sentence later to express his firm determination.

"What about them? Do you know how they feel?" Zhen Fan shook his head, "They are so young, should we let them die here? Or be imprisoned until they grow old? These people will not let you go. And ...What are you going to study? What is more important than your own freedom and life?"

Harold Cowles felt a little heavy when he heard Zhen Fan mention these young people, but when he mentioned his archaeology, he immediately beamed with joy: "Of course, of course it's important, didn't I just say Is it? It is an ancient creature, according to our age, but if it really exists, then our human history may also change with it. This is a great... Maybe you are That's right, they are so young, they shouldn't be imprisoned here with me, maybe I may never be able to study this again." In the end, his words changed, and his emotions dripped down quickly.

"No, Professor, we are with you, and we will not go back!" Suddenly one of the young blonde girls excitedly said to Harold Cowles, "We are here with you, maybe... Christie Na will find a way to save us, isn't her boss very capable? Maybe she can do it."

"I know, but... After all, Christina is just his assistant, so... we can't ask for more from her, she has already made enough sacrifices." Professor Harold Cowles shook his head, Denied the girl's words.

Zhen Fan couldn't help laughing, looked at the girl, then at Harold Cowles and said, "I don't know if I should say it, but I'll tell you, actually... I am Christina's boss , I am here because we have a movie that needs to be filmed here, so I will tell you... The United States, never come here again. Now it seems that this condition cannot be negotiated at all." What Zhen Fan meant was that Professor Harold Cowles disagreed.

Sure enough, Professor Harold Cowles shook his head firmly and said, "Yes, I won't go back. We can negotiate terms with them. Hayley Chokaya and the others can go back with you, or never Come again, and I... stay here until they release me one day." He looked at the girl and nodded to Zhen Fan.

"Professor..." The girl named Hayley Jokaya called out to Professor Harold Cowles, but the professor waved her hand and interrupted her. Then he looked at those middle-aged people and said, "I have to say, I also want to say goodbye to you, there is no need to accompany me here to wait for death, after all... you may not see the light of day from now on."

One of the middle-aged men just laughed, and said to Harold Cowles: "I said, Harold, you are so selfish, such a thing that lasts forever, may let your name surpass Darwin's." Things, how could I be missing? Don't say it, it's useless to say anything, we are going to stay." The rest of the middle-aged men nodded.

"Professor, let's stay too!" The rest of the young people also said loudly to Harold Cowles, "We are just waiting for this historic moment with you, we are a team!"

Harold Cowles sighed, shook his head, then turned to Zhen Fan and said, "Let them in, we've got the results, it seems... nothing has changed, this matter is too big, I don't even know how to make decisions. So I can't influence their own decisions."

It seems that everything is for nothing. Zhen Fan shook his head, and when he was about to go out, he heard someone coming in, so he stood still and looked at Jamal Aziz who came in from the cave. As soon as he came in, he said to Zhen Fan: "It seems that you have reached a conclusion now, so tell me, what is your decision."

"They decided to continue their research, so... I have no way to convince them." Zhen Fan shrugged, then walked out of the cave, and said to Jamal Aziz, "Let's go outside and talk Okay?" He said and made a gesture of invitation to Jamal Aziz.

Jamal Aziz hesitated for a while, looked at Zhen Fan, then nodded and said: "Okay, I will give you this last chance to negotiate with me, if it doesn't work, there is no need for us to negotiate, they We will continue to be imprisoned, knowing that they made a promise is still our bottom line, this decision cannot be made by me alone." As he said that, he took the first step and walked outside. Zhen Fan then followed.

"This result does not seem to be what Mr. Zhen wants." After walking out, Jamal Aziz shook his head at Zhen Fan and said, "It is precisely because Professor Harold Cowles is too stubborn, so... Our negotiations with him can't always be reached, so... this is the situation, will Mr. Zhen continue?"

Zhen Fan shook his head and said: "Negotiation seems unnecessary, but... what I want to say is, why do you insist on them stopping archaeology? They are just archaeology, and they don't seem to pose any threat to you at all. Is there any conflict of interest? They are archaeologists...I heard Christina say something, it seems to be a creature that has never been seen before..."

"It's not a creature, it's a divine object." Suddenly Jamal Aziz interrupted Zhen Fan, and said with a little excitement, "That is the holy beast that we have guarded for generations, the holy beast that guards the gate of heaven, It is also the sacred beast that we have guarded for generations. We are the guardians of the gate of heaven just like it.” (To be continued..) u
