Cairo!","egypt-cairo-177",177,"Carrying backpacks, Xiaoyu and Jackie Chan came out of Cairo Airport.\nIn such a short time, they had crossed the Eurasian continent. Even though they had stepped on the smooth floor of Cairo International Airport, their minds were still a little confused.\nWhenever they thought that Tang Mu's performance was just like this, Tang Mu could always refresh their horizons.\nLooking at Tang Mu who was enthusiastically holding a camera in his hand and taking pictures at \"Kaka\" after landing, Jackie Chan shook his head and forced himself to come back to his senses.\nI secretly convinced myself that I shouldn't be surprised by anything this cat does in the future, otherwise my heart would easily be unbearable.\nLooking at Tang Mu taking pictures again, Jackie Chan couldn't help but think of the novel written by Tang Mu.\nI was still wondering where those photos of him came from.\nNow looking at Tang Mu's appearance, he had the answer in his heart.\nAfter taking pictures at the airport, Tang Mu took two more pictures of Jackie Chan and the others.\nThere are even palm trees inside the Cairo Airport in Egypt, which can be used as the background for Jackie Chan and others. The photos taken are quite beautiful.\nAs soon as this palm tree comes into view, the flavor of Egypt immediately comes to mind.\nYou don't need to take too many photos inside the airport.\nAfter just taking a few pictures, Tang Mu returned to Jackie Chan and walked with them outside the airport.\nTom lowered his head and checked the photos he had just taken in the camera as he walked.\nIt was Xiaoyu's first time coming to Egypt and she seemed very excited.\nWhile bouncing along beside Jackie Chan, Xiaoyu suddenly looked at Jackie Chan and asked: \"Uncle Long, we have arrived in Egypt, where are we going next? Aren't you invited to come over to participate in some archaeological activities? Over there Where is your address?\"\nHearing Xiaoyu ask this question, Jackie Chan also seemed a little distressed.\nAfter scratching his head, Jackie Chan replied to Xiaoyu: \"The people from the British Museum did not explain where the archaeological address is. They just said that they would meet at the Four Seasons Hotel in Cairo. We are here a few days early, and the agreed time is a week later.\"\n\"Why are you doing this? Don't they trust you? We can obviously go there first.\"\nXiaoyu still doesn't understand.\nAlthough Jackie Chan also wanted to go there and have a look first, as a person who really loves archeology, after arriving in Egypt, his archeology heart was already ready to move.\nBut precisely because he is a serious archaeologist, he also knows very well why the British Museum wanted to do this.\nAfter all, it was like what Xiaoyu said, they did not have 100% trust in Jackie Chan.\nNot only did they not trust Jackie Chan, they also distrusted some of the other invited scholars.\nAfter all, this is a newly discovered archaeological address. If it is leaked, there will always be some people with ulterior motives who will act in advance, and it is very likely that the treasure will be stolen in the end.Expensive archaeological sites are destroyed.\nThose people just wanted money, but they took it and ran away regardless of its historical and cultural value.\nEven if some items are too large to be moved, they will cut them violently.\nThese are all real-life cases, and people at the British Museum should not be careful.\nJackie Chan told Xiaoyu the reasons for this, and Xiaoyu nodded with understanding.\n\"Then where are we going now?\"\nThe two people and the cat had slowly walked out of the airport with the tourists. As soon as they left the airport gate, a wave of heat hit their faces, instantly making Jackie Chan and the others feel the enthusiasm of Egypt.\nWhat comes into view is a piece of Egyptian yellow with a long ancient charm, like historical dust.\nThe area around the Cairo International Airport is very empty. As far as the eye can see, there are only a small number of various types of vehicles staying there.\nBecause of the high temperature of the sun, people and objects in the distance were somewhat distorted.\nOccasionally some green, like a person who has been dry for a long time, suddenly comes into contact with the clear spring, which makes the person's brain slightly refreshed.\nWhen we were on the plane just now, the flight attendant said that the outside temperature was 37 degrees, but Tang Mu and the others felt that it was probably around 40 degrees at least.\nA few seconds after the group left the airport, they were forced by the heat to return to the airport.\n\n            \n\n\n\n                 \nWiping the sweat from his head, Jackie Chan looked at the surrounding environment, pulled the backpack on his shoulders, and then said: \"Let's go to the airport bus station first, take a car directly to the center of Cairo, and first go to the Four Seasons Hotel to get a room. \"\n\"If you're still free, let's go shopping in Cairo city first, and then we'll go see the Pyramids and the Sphinx tomorrow. I want to go to the Cairo Museum the day after tomorrow.\"\n\"Anyway, it will take some time for people from the British Museum to come over. We can just take advantage of this time to travel.\"\nHearing what Jackie Chan said, Xiaoyu felt very happy.\nIt feels like an interesting journey.\nBut the weather was too hot, which really made Xiaoyu unable to lift her spirits.\n  \"Great……\"\nXiaoyu cheered weakly, then looked at Tom Mu who was standing aside as if asking for help, and begged: \"Tom, it's so hot here, is there anything you can do?\"\nTom Mu was also extremely hot at this time. The cat was bent over weakly, sweating profusely, with its mouth open and its tongue hanging out, as if it had been turned into a dead dog by the heat.\nAfter hearing Xiaoyu's words, Tang Mu waved his hands listlessly, then grabbed his tail and wrung out the water like a towel.\nAlong with the sound of running water, a large amount of sweat was squeezed out of Tom Mu's tail, and a pool suddenly gathered at his feet.\nAfter squeezing out all the sweat from his body, Tom Mu, the cat, looked much more energetic.\nRegarding Xiaoyu's request, Tang Mu felt that it was okay.\nJackie Chan has been through many battles, so he may still be able to endure it.\nTom can bear it, but it's not necessary.\nBecause it obviously has a way to solve the problem, but it doesn't solve it. That doesn't mean it is strong-willed, it means being mean.\nSuffering is always suffering, and the truly powerful ones are those who can survive it.\nWhat Tom Mu wants to do now is exactly this.\nAfter thinking about it, Tom Mu reached out and grabbed a rope hanging from the sky and pulled hard!\nThere was a \"crash\", and like a stage curtain, the originally bright sky was instantly covered by the falling black curtain.\nIn just a moment, the sky was filled with stars and the moon was bright.\nAt night, the temperature in Egypt drops significantly.\nAlthough it is still in the twenties, it is much better than when the sun is shining in the sky.\n  \"Wow!\"\n  \"Oh My God!\"\n\"Oh God! What happened!\"\nIt suddenly became dark, causing the passengers who had just come out of the airport to cry out in panic!\nThere was a lot of commotion immediately.\nIt seems that some people have noticed Tang Mu and are looking at him.\nXiaoyu was still looking up at the moon, marveling at it.\nJackie Chan noticed the movement over there and quickly bent down to pick up Xiaoyu and Tang Mu.\nHolding one in each hand, he ran away!\nAfter running a certain distance, turning a corner, and avoiding the sight of the tourists, Jackie Chan breathed heavily and put Tang Mu and the others back on the ground.\nLooking up at the night sky above his head, Jackie Chan felt his head hurt again.\nSquatting down and looking directly at Tom Mu, Jackie Chan went crazy: \"This won't work. The temperature has dropped, but the movement is too big. And we will stay in Egypt for a long time in the future. We can't let it stay dark all the time. This will harm the world.\" It's a big mess!\"\n\"Wow! Cool!\"\nNext to her, Xiaoyu put her hands in her pockets. After listening to Jackie Chan's words, she suddenly screamed with excitement.\n\"No! Xiaoyu! This is not cool at all!\"\nJackie Chan turned to look at Xiaoyu again.\n\"Okay, the alliance stool is made by Chun Tuochun.\"\nXiaoyu shrugged indifferently.\nTang Mu also followed Xiaoyu's example and shrugged.\nWhat Jackie Chan said makes sense. We really can't let it stay dark like this. Over time, things will go wrong.\nIn this case, let's change the method.\nTom pulled the rope hanging from the sky.\nIt was like pulling a light switch.\nThe sky that was dark just now suddenly brightened up!\nThe scorching temperature comes back to the world along with the light.\nThere was another burst of exclamations from the other side of the airport gate.\nThis againThe bright and dark weather is really confusing.\nAfter today's incident, I'm afraid many people will start to doubt life after returning home.\nFortunately, many foreigners are theists, so what happened today should not make them crazy.\nThe possibility of making them believe in gods and gods is quite high.\nOn Tang Mu's side, after the sky became bright again, he thought of another way.\nIt whistled towards the clouds in the sky.\nI saw a pair of big cartoon eyes opening in the thick cloud and looking towards me.\nTom raised his paw and bowed to it, then pretended to be dying of heat and wanted to ask it for help.\nSeeing that Tang Mu was asking for help, the thick clouds did not hesitate, closed their eyes again, and began to move slowly in the sky. A dark cloud suddenly blocked the heads of Tang Mu and the others, blocking all the sunlight.\nAs a result, without direct sunlight, Tang Mu and the others suddenly felt that their body temperature had dropped a lot.\nAlthough it is still hot, it has become bearable.\nAlthough Tom also has the ability to bring Egypt into the Ice Age, it is completely unnecessary and it really affects the lives of normal local people.\nHaving initially solved the problem of heat, Jackie Chan took Tang Mu and the others to the airport bus station first.\nThe group of people bought the tickets and got on the bus. After waiting on the bus for another half an hour, the bus finally set off and headed towards its destination.\nFortunately, the air-conditioning was turned on on this bus, otherwise, in this kind of weather, no one would look like a person after being simmered in the bus for half an hour.\nThe bus driver seemed to be in a good mood. Although the weather was very hot, there was always a cloud blocking the sun for him, which made the driver feel like he was being blessed by the gods.\nThe bus was driving on the yellow asphalt road, bumping from time to time.\nGradually, as the bus began to enter the city.\nObvious Egyptian-style buildings began to appear around it.\n\"Uncle Long, what's going on with those houses? Why don't they have roofs?\"\nXiaoyu has just arrived and is not very familiar with Egypt's various humanities and customs.\nHearing Xiaoyu's question, Jackie Chan also looked out of the car window.\nThe bus is still moving forward slowly.\nThe scenery on both sides of the bus also recedes as the vehicle moves forward.\nOn both sides of the road, rows of two or three-story buildings without roofs are indeed eye-catching.\nAt first glance, it looks like rows of unfinished buildings.\nBut obviously there are still many people living in these unfinished buildings.\n\"More than half of the buildings in Cairo are in an unfinished state, but unlike other countries, although their houses have not been topped out or completed, they are not unfinished buildings.\"\nJackie Chan deserves to be called a scholar, and he can answer Xiaoyu's casual questions.\n\"There are many reasons why Egyptians do not cap their houses, and there are many factors that have contributed to the current situation.\"\n\"The first is the issue of the wedding room. After getting married, Egyptian parents will build an extra floor for their children on the basis of the original house as their wedding room, and they can continue to build on it later if necessary.\"\n\"The second issue is taxation. There is a law in Cairo that as long as the house is unfinished, there is no need to pay taxes. So in order to save money, many people will choose to actively let the house be unfinished and never complete it.\"\n\"In general, it is the people at the bottom who have to choose this way of survival in order to survive. Cairo officials have thought about controlling it. But they also encountered a lot of protests, and in the end they had to leave it alone. \"\nHaving said this, Jackie Chan looked at Xiaoyu's big mouth again, looking a little in disbelief.\nAs Uncle Jade Dragon, Jackie Chan will certainly not let go of this good educational opportunity.\nThen he said to Xiaoyu: \"It would be nice to let you go out with me this time. See more of the outside world, so that you can know the real living environment of many people in this world.\"\n\"Those unfinished buildings look very dilapidated, but at least they can have their own houses, and most of them have a job that can make a living.\"\n\"But in Egypt, there are still some marginalized people who can't even afford to live in such unfinished houses.\"\n\"Due to the surge in population, many people who come to Cairo in search of livelihood need to find a place to live. They set their sights on the Karafa cemeteries, known as the City of Death, and live with the dead.\"\n\"Originally, there were several sets of rooms next to the mausoleum for relatives to mourn. Those marginalized people moved in and used it as their daily residence, and some even used the coffin as a table.\"\n\"This may be unbelievable to the Chinese who are the oldest deceased, but it is the fact.\"\nListening to Uncle Long's narration, Xiaoyu nodded and looked out the window, not knowing what he was thinking.\nIn fact, it's not just Egypt.\nMany countries have similar slums.\nEven the prosperous Xiangjiang is like this.\nThere is a kind of housing community in Xiangjiang called squatters.\nIn the 1940s, due to historical reasons, a large number of refugees poured into Hong Kong. At that time, the Hong Kong government pursued the principle of free trade and had no public housing plan.\nRefugees built squatters on the edge of urban areas and on the sides of mountains.\nMost squatters are built with iron sheets and wood. The squatter areas are very crowded and have poor hygiene. Therefore, fire accidents often occur and infectious diseases breed.\nThe living conditions of the local people are very poor.\nAs of 2009, there were more than 200,000 squatters in Xiangjiang, of which more than 80,000 were inhabited.\nFortunately, it's easy to followWith the development of the times, the subsequent situation will get better and better.\nSeeing the big from the small.\nTurning our attention to the interior of China, compared with other countries around the world, China's improvement in the lives of the poor is really not even a little bit.\nIn just twenty or thirty years, the entire country of China went from poverty to wealth, as if a whole world had changed.\nUntil 2023 in later generations, even though some poverty still exists in China's vast land, the government's poverty alleviation actions have not stopped.\nMany things may not be obvious in a short time.\nBut once time passes, it can be seen that China's development trend is generally good.\nPerhaps this is why so many people become more patriotic the more they go abroad.\nPeople who have the ability to think independently can discover just how lucky they are to be born in China as long as they travel abroad.\nTang Mu likes a passage from Teacher Luo Xiang very much: The poorer the knowledge, the more inexplicable courage and pride a person possesses.\nBecause the poorer your knowledge, the more absolute your beliefs will be. Because you have never heard the opposite view.\nYelang is arrogant, which is the nature of ignorant and argumentative people.\nJackie Chan and Xiaoyu chatted, and with the bumpy bus, a group of passengers finally entered the urban area of ​​Cairo.\nHorns were blaring all around, and the traffic flow had obviously increased.\nWhen the bus arrived, Jackie Chan put on his backpack and waved to Tang Mu and the others to get off.\nJackie Chan had also been to Cairo. He didn't even need to look at the map like the other passengers who got off the bus. He took Tang Mu and the others to the Four Seasons Hotel to check in.\nYou can exchange Egyptian pounds here at the hotel, so Jackie Chan exchanged some.\nTom Mu also changed a lot.\nNow it is the richest. Before Jackie Chan makes money, he must have Tom to maintain the bulk of the expenses.\nAs a shit shoveler, Jackie Chan has to let cats take care of him, which is really a bit embarrassing.\n\n            \n\n\n\n                 \nHowever, as the relationship between the two parties gets closer, they actually don't care too much about these trivial things.\nJackie Chan got a twin room, put away his luggage, took a short rest in the hotel, and then went out again.\nChildren are full of energy.\nAfter finally arriving in Egypt, Xiaoyu couldn't help but want to see the scenery of Egypt.\nAfter spending some time in the hotel, when they came out, it was already getting dusk outside.\nIt just so happened that it was time to have dinner.\n\"I know there is a store nearby. The Ful and Tamiya there are delicious. Xiaoyu, you should like to eat the roasted pigeon there.\"\nThe two of them and the cat were walking on the streets of Cairo. After Jackie Chan and Xiaoyu finished talking, they turned their eyes to Tom Mu who was looking around, and said with a smile: \"Tom, the food here should also be very suitable for your taste.\"\nTang Mu raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Hearing what Jackie Chan said, he was really looking forward to it.\nEgypt is a typical Arab country that believes in Islam, so it is almost impossible to find pork and related foods, and it is also forbidden to eat any animal offal or undercooked food.\nTherefore, food such as sashimi has no market at all in Egypt.\nThe local taste is strong. Chili, curry, pepper, etc. are used in most dishes, and Egyptians like rich, caramel and soft food.\nTom also likes to eat spicy food, so in Egypt, he doesn't have to worry too much about not being able to eat something that suits his taste and ending up hungry.\nIt's much better than when I was in India before.\n\"Hi! Hello!\"\nAt this moment, a very beautiful girl in front suddenly stopped Jackie Chan and the others and said hello.\nHearing the sound, Tang Mu also turned his head. When he saw the person coming, he suddenly raised his eyebrows in surprise.",3333,"2026-06-05T15:23:28.309Z",1,null,"59accc33c28452c8a907c8e763697159279f3b2ac10ce6df147e04d28a753dca","it-s-normal-for-jackie-chan-to-be-chased-178","speedy-flight-176",463,"\u002Fcovers\u002F2744d9e2-255e-4853-bafb-59a1dcb29203-1780673005081.jpg"]
