They felt that it was almost time and were ready to go home.\nThe main reason is that Jackie Chan ran away first. The two of them were unfamiliar with each other here, and there was nothing interesting about them.\nGuli Palace is still a little far away from the Four Seasons Hotel.\nIf we walk back, it will probably take a lot of time.\nSo they found a van on the side of the road.\nVans like this are quite common on the streets of Egypt.For one Egyptian pound, it will take you anywhere in Cairo.\nWhat's more interesting is that there is no upper limit on the number of people who can use one Egyptian pound.\nIn other words, as long as the van can be squeezed in, you can pull it with twenty people and a driver for one Egyptian pound.\nTang Mu and Xiaoyu were also lucky enough to experience this feeling.\nXiaoyu felt like she was back in India.\nTang Mu recalled that when he was in junior high school, he accompanied his parents to visit relatives in the countryside. At that time, he also took similar means of transportation.\nWhen I returned to my room at the Four Seasons Hotel, I didn't wait long before a panting Jackie Chan also ran back.\nAlthough he looked very tired, his clothes were still intact and not dirty.\nIt seems that those people did not catch up with Jackie Chan, who is a parkour master.\nAfter Jackie Chan returned to the hotel, he asked Tang Mu and the others about his situation after leaving, and then went to take a shower first.\nAfter walking around the streets of Cairo, you will definitely be covered in sweat and dust when you get home. If you don't take a shower, you won't be able to sleep comfortably at night.\nThe next day, the second day after Tom and the others arrived in Egypt.\nAs Jackie Chan said before, today's trip is to visit the Pyramids and the Sphinx.\nThe Four Seasons Hotel is on the east bank of the Nile, and the pyramids they are going to visit today are on the west bank of the Nile.\nIf you want to cross the river, you can choose to take a ferry or cross the bridge.\nOriginally, Xiaoyu was very interested in taking the boat.\nBut Jackie Chan asked at the hotel front desk and found that it was troublesome and would have to wait for a while, so he finally chose to cross the bridge by car.\nThis way you can take the bus all the way to your destination.\nWhen you have time later, you can also take a boat trip on the Nile.\nAnyway, they spent a lot of time in Egypt.\nAfter a period of driving, under the leadership of a local driver, they arrived at the Giza Pyramids.\nThis is a large plain of loess and yellow sand.\nThe famous Pyramid of Khufu, Pyramid of Khafre, Pyramid of Giza and Pyramid of Menkaure are all here.\nThey come from east to west.\nWhen you enter this road, the first thing you encounter is not the pyramids, but the Sphinx.\nJackie Chan also wanted to see this iconic stone statue more than 4,500 years ago.\nAfter paying to get out of the car, the two of them and the cat slowly walked towards the Sphinx in front of them.\nThere was already a dark cloud floating in their sky to protect them from the sun, which made them feel much more comfortable than other tourists.\n\n            \n\n\n\n                 \n\"Wow, this is the Sphinx. It's bigger than it looks in the photo.\"\nXiaoyu seemed very excited.\nHe immediately left the team and trotted to the side of the Sphinx.\nShe had long wanted to see what the Sphinx looked like from the side.\nNormally, only the front side can be seen in photos.\nSeeing this, Xiaoyu suddenly felt a little disappointed.\nBecause although the front of the Sphinx looks rough, it is at least decent.\nBut its body looks very cheap.\nIt was a long cuboid made of stone bricks, without any polishing or caulking on the outside.\nIf the front half of the stone statue is covered. Some people believe it when they say it is construction waste that needs to be demolished at a construction site.\nAlthough a little disappointed, overall, there is a reason why the Sphinx is so famous.\nWhen meeting for the first time, it will still give people a lot of visual shock.\nSoon, it seems that this place will be surrounded by a fence.\nAt that time, tourists will no longer be able to get up close to the stone statues.\nTaking advantage of this moment, Tang Mu ran to the hind legs of the stone statue and took a look.\nThere are many related legends about ancient Egypt.\nVarious unsolved mysteries.\nMany of them can be related to mysterious aliens.\nThere is a legend about the Sphinx.\nLegend has it that there is a secret room hidden in its hind legs, which contains information about Atlantis.\nThis legend would definitely be false in the main world, but if it were placed in this world, it might actually be possible.\nEspecially, Tom Mu remembered one thing.\nThe palace of Bazaar, the water demon among the eight demons, seems to be the legendary Atlantis.\nExtrapolating from this, it is estimated that Atlantis in this world also exists.\nConsidering this issue, Tom Mu wanted to see if there was a secret room in the back legs of the Sphinx.\nIf Atlantis can really be found, Jackie Chan will have another adventure that can be turned into a book, and its side missions will also be able to go further.\nI just arrived at the hind legs of the stone statue and looked at the piles of stone bricks in front of me.\nTom wanted to push with his claws.\nJackie Chan's cry suddenly came from behind.\n\"Tom! Xiaoyu! There's a call from the Cairo Museum. We have something to do and we have to go back first.\"\nWhen Tang Mu heard this, he looked back.\nWhen Xiaoyu heard this, she felt as if she had been drained of energy, and her face was full of disappointment: \"Uncle Long, we have just arrived here, and we haven't even seen the pyramid yet.\"\nJackie Chan was not too embarrassed. After all, we had agreed before that we would visit the pyramids together.\nBut Jackie Chan also knows what their main purpose is for coming to Egypt this time. Now that there is something going on at the museum, of course they can't continue here.stay.\n\"I'm sorry, Xiaoyu. I promise you, when the work is over, I will accompany you again. By then, the work will be done, and we will have a long time.\"\nJackie Chan put his hands together and apologized to Xiaoyu.\n\"Okay, just this once.\"\nXiaoyu sighed.\n\"Thank you, I give this to you as my apology, Tom, and yours.\"\nJackie Chan waited for Xiaoyu and Tang Mu to climb up from the pit where the stone statue was, and took out two trinkets for them as an apology.\nBoth trinkets are very Egyptian in style.\nOne of them is a small pendant from a pyramid, and the other is a pendant from Bastet, the ancient Egyptian cat goddess.\nXiaoyu likes pyramids very much, so that pyramid is naturally given to Xiaoyu.\nAs for Bastet's pendant, Jackie Chan didn't know if he considered that Tom was also a cat, so he gave her a pendant from the Cat God.\nTo be honest, Tom Mu's feelings about this Bastet pendant are quite average. He doesn't like it that much, and he doesn't dislike it that much either.\nIf you ask him to pay for it, he will definitely not buy it.\nBut this pendant was given to Tom Mu as a gift, and Tom Mu liked it very much.\nTom is the kind of person who rarely receives gifts.\nIf someone gives him a gift sincerely, of course he will feel very happy.\nJackie Chan bent down and put the pendant on Xiaoyu first, and then on Tang Mu. He also shrunk the rope and adjusted the length of the pendant.\nTom Mu took out a mirror and looked at it for himself. He immediately smiled and opened his big white teeth, feeling very happy.\nThen he took the camera and took a photo with Xiaoyu, Jackie Chan and the others.\n\"Let's go back first. I also bought a gift for dad, I hope he likes it.\"\nJackie Chan shook the other Amon's pendant in his hand, and left with Tom Mu and the others.\nListening to Jackie Chan's words, Tang Mu was also reminded.\nWhen I go back, I can indeed bring some gifts to my father.\nEgyptian black tea tastes pretty good.\n  oh!\n  correct!\nI can also bring some gifts for Suisui and her parents.\nWhen I return, I will go on a business trip abroad and I will bring it to them by the way.\nThe driver who had sent Tom Mu and the others over before had not yet left, so he picked them up and went back again.\nAt the entrance of the Cairo Museum, Evelin, who had called in advance, was already standing there waiting.\nWhen they saw Jackie Chan and others getting off the car, they hurriedly greeted them.\nIt's not that Evelin is so enthusiastic and insists on waiting here to welcome Jackie Chan.\nThe main reason was that the incident happened suddenly, and Evelin was also afraid that something would happen in the end.\nI plan to understand the current situation in advance before Jackie Chan meets those people in the museum.\n  \"what's going on?\"\nJackie Chan looked at Evelin, still confused.\nEvelin greeted Jackie Chan, and they all walked towards the museum together.\nWhen entering the museum, Tom Mu also noticed a sign on the Cairo Museum.\nIt says [Photography is prohibited in the museum unless you buy a photo ticket].\nWell, it seems that this situation is inevitable everywhere.\nTang Mu ignored Jackie Chan and the others and ran to buy a ticket first.\nIt doesn't care what other people do. Anyway, Tom Mu wants to take photos as a souvenir.\nThis is the first time it has come to the Cairo Museum, so it can't just be a simple look.\nOn the other side, Evelin took Jackie Chan inside the museum, and at the same time explained to him what the situation was like now.\n\"That's right. Didn't I say before that the Louvre has also sent people here, and they will probably participate in this archaeological operation.\"\n\"Originally, they said they would come next week and be consistent with the staff from the British Museum. But I don't know why. Maybe they have already learned the detailed location of the archeology, so they planned to go there to investigate before the people from the British Museum. \"\nListening to Evelin's explanation, Jackie Chan couldn't help but widen his eyes.\nGood guy, the British and the French are really at odds with each other.\nThe time has obviously been agreed upon, but everyone is jumping ahead of schedule.\nIt seems that I am still too honest.\nIf I didn't want to come here in advance and take a trip, I might not even be able to get first-hand archaeological information.\nHowever, this time the people at the Louvre spent so much effort to obtain information about the ruins and to find out the location of the ruins.\nOriginally, I thought I had succeeded in jumping the gun.\n  The results of it? The French didn't expect that the British would come to Egypt earlier than they thought.\nIf they knew this, I am afraid that these proud Louvre scholars would also be able to curse.\nBut this has nothing to do with Jackie Chan.\nBecause it was someone from the British Museum who invited Jackie Chan.\nIn Evelin's mind. Although Jackie Chan is an invited scholar. But before the people from the British Museum arrive, Jackie Chan can contact the people from the Louvre first.\nShe obviously didn't know that people from the British Museum had also arrived in Egypt first.\nIf Evelin, a little girl with little experience in the world, knew all this, I'm afraid the image of the scholars and professors in her mind would be destroyed.\nFollowing Evelin, she walked inside and soon came to a large library.\nThe bookcases here are very tall and form a circle in the spacious room.\nAt this time, there was already a group of people talking in the circle.\nMost of them are young people.\nBut it can be seen that they have no right to speak. They just stand aside and watch their mentor talking to an old man.\nThat old man is Terrence, the curator of the Cairo Museum.\nWith Curator TerrenceThe middle-aged man with whom we had the most exchanges was Dr. Thoma, the Egyptian curator of the Louvre.\nThe name Thomas is used by quite a few people in France.\nJudging from his age, being able to achieve this result is considered outstanding.\n\"Director Terrence, I have already told you the specific situation. I hope you can assist in this archaeological operation.\"\nWhen Evelin, Jackie Chan and the others approached, the conversation among this group of people seemed to have just come to an end.\nCurator Terrence was silent for a while, what could he say.\nThe other party is not easy to get along with, and the previous conversation was not very friendly.\nTheir words were often laced with warnings.\nAnyway, I have already agreed to the British Museum before, so it doesn't matter if I agree to the Louvre this time.\nHowever, this still requires some skills.\nDirector Terrence showed a smile on his face, looked at Dr. Thomas in front of him and said: \"We are very willing to help your museum, after all, it is also for the archaeological cause of Egypt. But after all, we had promised the British Museum before, and this archaeological The action was also initiated by them, so we have to talk to them.\"\nDr. Thomas frowned when he heard this. He just wanted to conduct archeology before the British Museum and obtain first-hand information, so he sneaked over a few days in advance.\nHe knew in his heart that this was not very authentic, but in his heart the opportunity to take the lead in archaeology was more important.\nHe also knew that Terrence in front of him did not want to get involved in their struggle. The reason why he wanted to tell the British Museum was just to have himself removed first.\nI was dissatisfied, but I also knew that things had to develop this way in the end.\nAfter thinking about it for a while, he nodded: \"Okay, you can talk to them.\"\nA smile suddenly appeared on Terrence's face.\nJust as Dr. Thomas thought, he really didn't want to get involved in the affairs of those two big museums.\nIf you really want to fight, let them do it on their own, just don't drag yourself into the water.\nAnyway, the Hundred Years' War between England and France has been fought, and there is no shortage of small conflicts like today's.\nIn front of everyone at the Louvre, Terrence called the British Museum.\n\n            \n\n\n\n                 \nWhile making the call, he also saw Evelin and Jackie Chan coming over.\nHe raised his hand towards Evelin, signaling them to wait until he finished making the call.\nEvelin nodded and stood aside with an excited face.\nShe knew many experts and professors at the Louvre, and they were all authoritative scholars who had extensive research on ancient Egypt. To Evelin, this was no different from being a star-chasing little girl, facing her favorite idol head-on.\nTerrence finished the phone call.\nAlthough they didn't hear what the British Museum said, everyone present could still hear something from Terrence's words.\nDr. Thomas's face suddenly turned ugly.\n\"Have people from the British Museum arrived here? Is this Mr. Cheng? I heard that the British Museum invited him to participate in this archaeological operation.\"\nDr. Thomas said, looking at Jackie Chan aside.\nJackie Chan smiled awkwardly and raised his hand to say hello to the group of people.\nHe always felt as if everyone knew him, which made Jackie Chan a little uncomfortable.\nTerrence also looked at Jackie Chan and nodded towards him.\nBut it can be seen that he doesn't seem to have much affection for Jackie Chan.\nThis point makes Jackie Chan a little baffled.\nIt was obviously the first time they met, so I didn't know why he would be hostile to me.\nWithdrawing his gaze, Terrence looked at Dr. Thomas again and said with a smile: \"Mr. Jackie Chan was indeed invited by the British Museum, but it's not just him. Other scholars from the British Museum have also arrived. They said they will work with you. .\"\n\"What? They're already here too?\"\nEveryone in the Louvre suddenly became commotion.\nDr. Thomas's expression became even worse.\nThis was not what they expected at all.\nIt would be okay if it was just Jackie Chan, but if the archeology really produced any results, it would be hard for the people in the British Museum to fight for it, and they couldn't grab it.\nBut if people from the British Museum are also here, it would be meaningless for them to sneak over here in advance this time.\nThe abacus was completely empty.\nJackie Chan and Evelin stood aside, watching the development of the situation and not knowing what to say.\nDirector Terrence was happy to see this, as if he were watching a show.\nSure enough, it didn't take long after the phone call was made.\nThere are people coming from the British Museum.\nThe leader of the team was Dr. Boyang whom Jackie Chan saw yesterday.\nDr. Boyang came in and greeted Jackie Chan and the others enthusiastically, especially Jackie Chan who was a little too enthusiastic.\nCompletely ignoring the people at the Louvre.\nThis made Dr. Thomas' face even more ugly.\n\"Okay, since everyone is here, let's advance this archaeological operation.\"\nDr. Boyang and Jackie Chan shook hands vigorously, patted Jackie Chan's shoulder enthusiastically, and said with a smile: \"I have seen your research on ancient Egyptian texts over the years, and I have benefited a lot. You need more from this action. It's up to you how much you can gain from your efforts.\"\nJackie Chan was made a little uncomfortable by Dr. Boyang's enthusiasm.\nFinally, I was surrounded by a group of people from the British Museum and walked out.\n  fromFrom the beginning to the end, Dr. Boyan and the others ignored the group of people in the Louvre.\nThe faces of Dr. Thomas and his team, who were ignored, turned even more ugly.\nI was already feeling very unhappy because my plan failed.\nNow that this happened, their mood became even worse.\nBut the people who were looking at the British Museum had already left, and they had to follow.\nIn any case, this archaeological operation cannot be missed.\nThe people at the Louvre also knew that they were not invited. They found out about this through small means. It would be unreasonable to sneak in first.\nNow that he has been caught by people from the British Museum, the situation is even more embarrassing.\n​But so what.\nAnyway, the ruins in Egypt are not their British ones.\nEveryone is not a good person, the eldest brother does not talk about the second brother.",3315,"2026-06-05T15:23:28.309Z",1,null,"c767eaff805d5f3a6fc70d0336e979d7bb8ac217bab862bd89dd3c919c41bf44","it-s-natural-to-have-ultraman-in-the-pyramid-right-180","it-s-normal-for-jackie-chan-to-be-chased-178",463,"\u002Fcovers\u002F2744d9e2-255e-4853-bafb-59a1dcb29203-1780673005081.jpg"]
