23 Yelan's Prayer "Now, you only need to tell me what Yelan just said to you, and then this banknote will be yours." I slowly flattened the banknote. One hundred dollars is enough for them to be so poor.
Workers have been going wild in Cairo's red light district for a week.
Long blinked his cloudy eyes rapidly and stared at the money greedily. His face was dark and rough, and his facial features showed obvious characteristics of Egyptian natives.
"Okay, give me the money first, and I'll tell you!" He swallowed greedily and made a gurgling noise in his throat. It was very quiet, and it seemed that all the sentries had gathered around Gu Ye's tent. Maybe it was
In order to strengthen the protection of important figures.
I pulled Long's sleeve, motioned him to squat down, hiding everything in the shadows, and handed him the money.
Long swallowed again: "Yelan said that there were monsters in the underground tunnel. The workers were digging forward, and suddenly the mud in front collapsed automatically, and another hole appeared. The hole was covered with a blood-red carpet.
The workers were very curious, and some thought they had dug the treasure of the King of Egypt. They ran forward shouting and excited, and they all entered the hole, and then..."
In the myths and legends passed down from generation to generation in the desert, almost every story contains the plot of "desert treasure". The treasures looted by the ancient Egyptian kings were buried under the yellow sand of the desert, but no obvious marks were made.
Therefore, there must be thousands of gold and silver treasures underneath the seemingly ordinary desert.
In short, the poor people all over the world have the same mentality, they all want to get something for nothing and be hit by gold falling from the sky.
Long stopped talking, stretched out his hand again, and smiled slyly.
I took another banknote and put it in his hand, and he continued: "The hole suddenly shook, and the red carpet rolled up underground, and the workers disappeared. Do you know? That was the monster's mouth, which ate it
Forty-one workers later, another stone tablet was moved to block the entrance of the cave. You must know that the treasures of the Egyptian kings are guarded by mythical beasts. Once the treasure diggers wake up the mythical beasts, they will definitely die without a burial place.
Therefore, Yelan has decided to withdraw from this operation. Alas, no matter how much money you have, it is not as important as your life!"
Long Xu talked nonchalantly and put the money into his pocket. His English had a weird local accent, which sounded awkward, and his eyes kept flickering, as if he was hiding something.
"Any more?"
"No, that's all. But maybe you're interested in hearing the legend about the treasure of the King of Egypt. I'll pay half the price, how about it?" The dragon's eyes secretly looked at my pocket.
I know those legends by heart and am too lazy to listen to his nonsense.
When I stood up, my face was facing the west, facing the direction of the Pyramid of Tuluhan. For a moment, I suddenly thought: "Is it possible that no one has been able to open the pyramid for so many years because there are monsters guarding it?"
This is of course ridiculous nonsense. The so-called mythical beasts, ancient spells, curses, and poisons are all strange tricks that the pharaoh came up with in order to rule his slaves. As a materialist, I simply despise this.
"Long, where are you from?" I asked before leaving, because I felt that this person was not a simple person.
He smiled and shook his head: "Everyone who wanders in the world will have his own secrets." It can be seen that he is a traveler who has traveled all over the world. He answers every sentence tactfully and does not easily reveal flaws.
I glanced at him sideways and my face darkened: "Long, this is Mr. Scalpel's territory. Anyone who wants to cause trouble must do it carefully, you know?" Before he could answer, I was already walking along the edge of the tent.
The gap goes back.
Once a major event like the excavation of the Pyramid of Earth-Cracked Khan is revealed, there will be countless mysterious gangs in the world who will keep an eye on it. Therefore, everyone who enters the camp may be a stranger with special skills and should not be underestimated.
It was about forty steps away from where Long was squatting. Looking around to see if there was no one around, I quickly took out a miniature earplug from my pocket and put it into my left ear. When Yelan left just now, I made a little small mark on his sneakers.
My little hands and feet stuck a bug on the upper of my shoe.
"No, no, no, that's the patron saint of the ancient tombs, you can't do that -" It was Yelan's voice, which came clearly from the earbuds. Then, someone spit out a long string of Japanese words, laughing arrogantly while speaking.
My Japanese is not very good, but I can understand the brief meaning, which means: "With the money of our Japanese Empire, we can buy the whole of Egypt and the whole of Africa. No matter what kind of patron saint it is, we can use it."
Kill it with armor-piercing bullets." Such words make people laugh. How stupid is it to use armor-piercing bullets underground in this desert terrain? A slight explosion may cause the complete collapse of all tunnels.
Tan Ye was very calm and kept saying: "Mr. Yelan, don't get excited, don't get excited, no matter what it is, it must be dealt with. Believe in us, believe in the power of our Japanese military, we can definitely..."
I was shocked. This was in Egypt. How dare the Japanese send troops to take action? Besides, Egypt’s military power is second to none among African countries. Once a war breaks out openly, the people and cultural relics in the desert will be destroyed.
Have to suffer.
Yelan was stamping his feet desperately, and I felt the voice coming from the earbuds rising and falling: "No! No! The desert gods will not agree. The desert gods will punish you. Don't-"
Tanano and the fat Japanese man switched to Japanese and talked in a low and fast voice. I could only clearly hear a few words such as "blasting, arrows, shooting", but I couldn't understand the rest at all.
If the stone monument in the cave was set up by a monster, force can only be used. This is an inevitable event. What I am worried about is that the work of excavation of the Pyramid of Tulukhan has just begun, and force will be used. When will it be finished?
Woolen cloth?
Next, there were two Japanese people talking, and the others were silent. The strange thing was that I didn't hear the voices of Bancha and the Japanese girl at all. It seemed that there were only three people at the scene, Tanano, the Japanese fat man, and Yelan.
I put away the headphones and quickly returned to my tent. In addition to reporting to the scalpel for this complicated situation, I also needed a helper.
Su Lun was still dozing, and when he heard me coming in, he stood up sleepily: "Brother Feng, where have you been?"
I smiled, quickly turned on the computer, and entered a text file with a quadruple password. There were nineteen lines of Arabic numerals in the file, each line containing more than thirty characters. According to some strange encoding combination, I very
I almost found the one I needed and entered it into my phone.
Su Lun rolled over and got out of bed, smiling sheepishly: "Brother Feng, I just called and said that a friend of yours is anxious to see you and is waiting in the villa." Her hair was very disheveled and her eyes were blurry with sleep.
Extraordinarily thought-provoking.
I avoided her meaningful gaze and pretended not to care: "Friend? Who?"
