"What you're looking at now is a weapon called a khopesh. This scimitar-like weapon is widely seen in ancient Egyptian novels and movies, but few people know its exact name. The khopesh is the symbol of the brave ancient Egyptian warriors. It's about 50 to 60 centimeters long and has two blades. The outside is used to cut the enemy's body, creating deep wounds, and the inside is used to hook and hook the enemy's weapons and shields, creating flaws in the enemy's movements. Due to the use of integral casting technology and the advancement of ancient Egyptian smelting technology, the khopesh is more powerful than the daggers used by Roman soldiers on the battlefield … "
A very elegant woman in a professional suit was explaining to the tourists about an ancient Egyptian scimitar that was preserved in the display cabinet.
The scimitar was made of bronze, lying quietly on the dark red velvet. Under the light, it shone with the unique dark yellow light of copper. It looked very old, but it had not rusted. Perhaps the hot and dry weather of ancient Egypt had kept it intact until it was dug up by archaeologists one day, buried deep in the sand.
The explanation of the guide enlightened the tourists. They were all full of praise for the scimitar made by the ancient Egyptians. They all picked up their cameras or mobile phones to take pictures of it.
She was dignified, her hands crossed in front of her abdomen. She maintained a natural smile on her face, patiently waiting for the tourists to satisfy their desire to take pictures.
"Xiao Li, come here." A big-bellied Mediterranean man called out to her. "Let Xiao Liu explain to you first."
"What's the matter, curator?"
She walked over in high heels, her steps steady and rhythmic. She was even better than the models on the runway.
"Xiao Li, this is Professor Wei Kang from Binhai University," the curator introduced her.
She generously extended her hand to Professor Wei Kang. "Hello, Professor Wei Kang. Nice to meet you. I'm an assistant researcher and guide at Binhai Museum, Li Ao."
Wei Kang shook hands with her. "Hello, Miss Li. I'll cut to the chase and get straight to the point."
"Please go ahead." Li Ao listened carefully.
The big-bellied curator excused himself.
"Here's the thing. Recently, I'll be leading a scientific team to the Sahara Desert in Egypt to conduct a scientific research activity. For the sake of confidentiality, it is not convenient for me to tell you the details of the scientific research for the time being. I can only say that we are looking for a special pyramid. In fact, we used to be very close to it, but due to natural disasters, it was buried by yellow sand. I heard that your research on ancient Egyptian culture is very profound, second to none in Binhai City and the province, so I came to invite you to join our team. What do you think? "
Wei Kang explained the purpose of his visit and added, "Of course, I came suddenly and this matter is of great importance. You can take your time to think about it. There's no need to reply in a hurry."
She frowned and thought for a while, then looked at Zhang Zian, who was beside Wei Kang. "Is this also a member of the expedition team?"
"Oh, I forgot to introduce him. This is the expedition team's special advisor. He followed us the entire time we entered the desert. Without him, we might not have been able to walk out of the desert … Xiao Zhang, tell him yourself." Wei Kang gestured.
Zhang Zian: "..."
Why do I have to act with him?
He bit the bullet and said, "My name is Zhang Zian. I run a pet shop in Binhai City."
"Nice to meet you. Professor Wei has such a high opinion of you. You must be hiding something. "
She shook hands with him again. Her palm was delicate, but very strong.
What did he mean by hiding something …
Zhang Zian was completely acting awkwardly. He was not Famous, but he was being forced to make up the numbers. He had to pretend that they did not know each other and introduce himself to people who clearly knew each other.
Okay … He admitted that when he first followed Wei Kang into the museum, he really did not recognize the elegant guide. He did not even realize that it was a dream.
Everything seemed to make sense. Wei Kang was still upset about the golden pyramid buried in yellow sand. Due to the success of the last expedition, Binhai University had approved his application for the next expedition. The expedition to the same location, of course, had to maintain the same team as much as possible, so it was not surprising that Zhang Zian was called. It was reasonable.
It was not until she was called over by the museum curator that he recognized the woman named Li Ao from her eyes. She was actually Cleopatra VII, and this was obviously a dream.
Other than her, how many people could be familiar with the weapons of ancient Egypt?
While she and Wei Kang were discussing the details of the expedition, Zhang Zian wandered around.
Among the group of tourists just now, there was a woman wearing a traditional Chinese costume. She was surrounded by tourists before, so he did not notice her. Now that the other tourists had gone to visit other places, she was the only one left in the same place, carefully looking at the machete named Khopesh. If he still could not see it, he would be blind.
"I say, what are you playing this time?" He walked to her and asked, "You city people really know how to play …"
Zhuang Xiaodie did not even turn her face, as if she knew he was coming over and expected him to ask this question. She replied casually, "Isn't it very interesting?"
"What's interesting? You guys are playing RPG games. Why do you have to drag me along? " He said helplessly, "I am so tired every day, and I have a dream at night … It's too hard for me. I must have been a math problem in my previous life."
"The math problem is not difficult at all. It's full of beauty," she retorted.
There it was, the speech of a top student!
Apart from sighing and smiling bitterly, Zhang Zian had no other expression.
Zhuang Xiaodie looked back at Cleopatra VII, who was enjoying herself, and said, "This is what she asked me to arrange."
"Arrange for her to be a guide?" he asked.
Logically speaking, if they could arrange their roles in the world at will, most ordinary people would arrange for themselves to be an emperor, a president, a billionaire, a sports star, a celebrity in the entertainment industry, a Kato Ying, and so on. They would be able to enjoy the pleasures of money, power, and sex.
If Zhang Zian were to choose, maybe he would choose to be reincarnated as one of those people. After all, he could win without doing anything.
But she chose to be an ordinary person, an employee working in the museum. In addition to doing research every day, she also has to explain the museum's collections to tourists.
"Yes, she wants to live a different life. She wants to be an ordinary person, but not as ordinary as ordinary people. Occasionally, she will be involved in exciting adventures … Similar to you." Zhuang Xiaodie turned to look at him.
"Similar to me?"
Zhang Zian was stunned.
The life that he was accustomed to actually made the last pharaoh, who had a magnificent life and enjoyed all the glory and wealth, envious?
This is really … What you can't get is the best!
