Chapter 183: What's in the camel's hump?

Thebes is not too far from Aswan, but not close either.
This time, because they were no longer traveling with people from the museum, Jackie Chan and the others had to choose their own transportation to get to Thebes.
In ancient times, Thebes was a holy city.
But in modern times, it is just a tourist attraction. It is not even specifically marked on Google Maps, and you have to use search to find it.
If you want to go to Thebes, the fastest way is to go to Luxor first.
The two Evelin siblings are relatively familiar with Egypt.
Taking Jackie Chan with them, they went to the train station in Aswan and bought tickets to Luxor overnight.
It was the first time for Tom to take a train in Egypt.
When I looked at it, I immediately discovered some more novel places.
Some trains here still don't have doors.
When the train entered the station, even before it came to a complete stop, people were already eager to get on and off the train.
Seeing this, Xiaoyu was even more eager to give it a try.
As soon as she took off, Jackie Chan grabbed her by the collar and grabbed her back like a kitten.
"Xiaoyu, don't be naughty. It's very dangerous. Let's wait until the car stops before we get in the car."
Jackie Chan held Xiaoyu in his hand and was still teaching her earnestly.
Xiaoyu was obviously not happy to be educated by Jackie Chan. She was lifted up in the air with her arms folded and her mouth puffed up angrily.
As the train came to a complete stop, Jackie Chan and others got on the train.
As the train traveled north, two brothers and sisters, Jackie Chan and Evelin, chatted about Egypt.
Tang Mu and Xiaoyu stood on their seats, leaning against the window to look at the scenery outside.
Since the opening of high-speed rail in China, Tom rarely takes the old-fashioned trains.
Now that I'm on this train, I feel like I'm reminiscing about my childhood.
When I was young, due to family reasons, one of my parents was from Zhejiang and the other from Hunan.
During the Chinese New Year and festivals, it takes more than ten hours to travel from both sides.
This trip every few years made Tom Mu's memory of old-fashioned trains very deep.
The kind of journey full of human fireworks, full of dialects, instant noodles, train broadcasts, playing cards and suitcases used as stools.
Every time he recalled it, Tang Mu would sigh with emotion.
It is said that high-speed trains no longer have the same down-to-earth feeling as before, but after working, Tang Mu still chooses faster high-speed trains every time he chooses.
Sometimes it will think.
Is it because the high-speed rail is too fast, so fast that life and memories are far away?
Perhaps this is also the different helplessness of each generation.
So Tom Mu always felt that he was lucky.
After becoming a Tom cat, it can completely live the life it wants at its own pace.
Finally, I can slow down a little and take a good look at the scenery along the way.
A few hours later, the train stopped at Luxor train station.
Listening to Jackie Chan's greeting, Tang Mu jumped down from his seat, picked up Xiaoyu's shoes, laughed and ran out.
When Xiaoyu saw that her shoes were taken away by Tang Mu, she became anxious.
She was not afraid of getting dirty, so she jumped directly to the ground and was picked up by Jackie Chan again.
He really had no choice but to take Xiaoyu off the train with him.
It was already evening when they set off from Aswan.
It's even later now, already into the early morning.
The entire station platform is divided by dim lights, and you can see scattered passengers or homeless people lingering here.
The station in Luxor is not big. It looks a bit like the bus station in China in the 1990s.
The station is generally old, and the architecture has an ancient Egyptian style.
Maybe it's due to the general environment. The station is a bit dirty and messy.
There are no escalators when you get off the train and out of the station. Jackie Chan and others who are carrying backpacks are okay, but some of those using suitcases still need to carry their suitcases.
The ventilation inside the station is not very good, but I felt much better after leaving the station.
The temperature in Luxor in the early morning is much more comfortable than during the day.
The occasional night breeze can also cheer people up.
"Want to visit the Luxor Temple? It's not very far from here."
Standing outside the station, Evelin asked.
Jackie Chan scratched his head when he heard this: "Isn't it a little too late?"
"There are many hotels in Luxor, including two five-star hotels near the Temple of Light."
As she spoke, Evelin pointed forward again and said: "Just keep going straight along this road. At the end of the road is the Luxor Temple, which is built on the edge of the Nile River."
"Okay, let's go take a look."
It's a rare trip to Egypt, and of course Jackie Chan wants to see the famous local buildings.
Xiaoyu and Tang Mu have the same idea as Jackie Chan.
You have come, it would be a pity not to take a look.

fallJonathan was the only one with a sad face.
He really didn't think there was anything interesting about it.
Traveling is simply a pain for him.
Walking around, walking around, the things in the scenic area are still very expensive.
With that free time, he might as well stay at home and sleep, or go to the bar to play cards and have a drink with others.
But seeing his sister's enthusiastic look, he couldn't say anything, so he could only sigh and follow.
It turns out that the distance from the train station to the Luxor Temple is really not that far.
They didn't even take a car, they just walked for twelve minutes.
The Luxor Temple at night is not very realistic.
Although there are many lights nearby, most of the temple is still hidden in shadow.
It is not necessary to enter the temple to visit.
If you really want to visit carefully, it is best to come during the day.
Now I just have a rough look at what it looks like outside.
Anyway, the hotel is nearby, so they stopped by to take a look.
In the north of the temple, you can see an obelisk.
Originally, this thing was supposed to be a two-seater.
Just like the stone lions in China, one is placed on the left and right of the gate.
Only in 1833, in order to maintain diplomacy with France, the Egyptian government exchanged the obelisk on the right with a French clock.
At this time, the obelisk was still placed in the center of the Place de la Concorde in Paris.
"This obelisk is so handsome."
Xiaoyu looked up at the obelisk in front of her and exclaimed.
Tang Mu was taking pictures with a click.
I plan to make a photo album later and put all the photos I took in it.
"Boss, that obelisk is so handsome. How much do you think we can sell it for if we move it away?"
A hundred meters away, the mafia trio was also walking here.
In front of them was Walong who had put on a wizard's robe.
Walon seemed to be in a very bad mood, not as interested as his men.
Hearing Ah Fen's exclamation, he said angrily: "If you like it, just go and dig it away. I feel like a monkey now. I have to wear such a thick skirt in this weather." !"
While saying this, Valon raised his hand and grabbed his clothes again, wanting to tear them to pieces in a very unhappy manner!
At this moment, the Holy Lord came online and instantly snatched the dominance of Wa Long's body. He said in a cold voice: "This is a wizard's robe, not a skirt. Wa Long, my last warning is to work hard. I can already feel the devil." The gas is getting closer."
"I have some impressions of this place. If you behave well, I wouldn't mind telling you the location of a treasure."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Holy Lord shook his head crazily. Wa Long went online again, but with a look of dissatisfaction on his face: "You still tell me about treasures. I will never trust you again. I have learned a lesson from the treasure of Qin Shihuang."
After Valon finished speaking, the Holy Lord once again seized control of his body, grabbed his neck, and growled: "Watch your attitude! Human! Don't forget who you are talking to!"
On the other side, the three Lasu people looked at each other, watching Wa Long scolding and beating himself, not daring to breathe.
Whether it's the Holy Lord or Wallon, they can't afford to offend him.
At present, it seems that the Holy Lord is more terrifying.
After teaching Walong a lesson, the Holy Master turned to look at Lasu and the others and said, "I asked you to find the place where the demonic energy gathers. Have you achieved any results?"
As soon as they were targeted by the Holy Lord, Lasu and the others immediately trembled. They immediately stood at attention and lowered their heads: "I'm sorry, Master, we haven't discovered it yet."
"What a bunch of trash."
The Holy Lord snorted coldly, but he was not too harsh.
It can feel that the death positions of its two brothers should be nearby.
It's just a matter of time to find them.
This time the Holy Lord wanted to swallow the demonic energy of those demons before they were resurrected, so he had to find their place of death before they were resurrected.
The Holy Lord feels that the advantage lies with me, and I should be able to achieve the goal before they are resurrected.
In order to let this group of humans help search for evil spirits, it also specially made several devices for them to find evil spirits.
"Hahaha! Even if you can't do it, you still have to look at me, Black Tiger Ah Fu!"
Before he finished speaking, there was a burst of triumphant shouts from the other side.
Turning his head to look, he immediately saw a strong man with red hair, a strong build, a goatee, and a waistcoat doing somersaults over.
From the moment he saw him to the time he came to the crowd, he did more than thirty somersaults in total. His tone was not even the slightest bit messy, and he shouted clearly: "Monkey rolls over! Rabbit rolls over! Rat rolls over! Tiger rolls over! Tortoise rolls over." ! The bastard turns over! The turtle turns over! The turtle turns over! The turtle turns over!"
He even gave each backflip a name, and ended his appearance with the moves "Dapeng Spreads Wings" and "Old Cat Landing".
Looking at the strong man in front of him, the Holy Lord quite admired him.
Ah Fu knelt down on one knee, raised his fist towards the Holy Master in front of him, and said in a loud voice: "Thank you for your honor! I have found the place where the master is looking for!"
"Very good, it's not in vain that I think so highly of you."
When the Holy Master heard the good news, he nodded with satisfaction.
"It's getting late today, we'll set off tomorrow."
With that said, they turned around and headed towards the hotel where they were staying.
On the other side, Xiaoyu happened to see Aflian doing somersaults and couldn't help but sigh: "Wow, I didn't expect there are acrobats in Egypt.""Xiaoyu! Stop looking, it's getting late, we should go to the hotel. We have to leave for Thebes tomorrow."
Jackie Chan shouted towards Xiaoyu.
Xiaoyu immediately turned back to catch up with Jackie Chan and the others: "Come on, come on, I was watching a sideshow just now, and there was a guy who was very good at somersaults."
"Are there any juggling here?"
Jackie Chan was a little curious. The group of people walked further and further away. The sound of chatting drifted in the evening breeze of the Nile River, but gradually became blurred.
Early the next morning, Jackie Chan and others had a simple breakfast at the hotel and set off after a night's rest in Luxor.
This time they needed to cross the Nile River by boat first, and then head west to Thebes.
You can drive on the way, but Jonathan said that although he got the scarab in Thebes.
But it was stolen from someone else.
The scarab is definitely not in Thebes, it probably has to go deep into the desert.
It's not easy to drive there. It's best to rent some horses or camels from a horse rental company after arriving on the West Bank.
Everyone thinks Jonathan's proposal is a good one.
Jackie Chan and the others had just walked out, and from another hotel less than a kilometer away from them, a group of mafia people also came out.
Vallon even held a copy of the latest newspaper in his hand.
This is a local newspaper or a daily newspaper. It has a limited printing quantity and is only available to a few places.
What is published is the archaeological event in Aswan.
Among them, there was a period of weirdness about the British Museum and the Louvre, and finally posted a photo of Jackie Chan, roughly explaining the Aswan Monument he discovered.
This stele was discovered by the famous explorer and archaeologist Mr. Jackie Chan and Ms. Evelyn Carnahan of the Cairo Museum.
It is roughly judged to be a product of the Ptolemaic dynasty in the Hellenistic era of Egypt.
Because it was the Hellenistic era, such inscriptions were ordered to be added in Greek as a sign of surrender to the conquerors.
Therefore, while the ancient Egyptian language is engraved on this stone tablet, it will also be written again in Greek.
In addition to ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and Greek characters, there are also secular scripts on it.
This is a very rare trilingual stone tablet. It is very important for the deciphering of ancient Egyptian and has played a decisive role in history.
Walon is not interested in archeology. He is just very concerned about Jackie Chan mentioned in the newspaper.
What concerned him most was the photo in the newspaper.
The photo is a group photo.
The stone tablet was erected in the middle. Evelin and Jackie Chan squatted on both sides of the stone tablet with smiles on their faces.
In addition, there are also Xiaoyu and Tang Mu in the photo.
After seeing the cat, both Wa Long and the Holy Lord who temporarily lived in him were greatly shaken.
From the date in the newspaper, we can know that Tom must still be in Egypt at this moment.
I just don't know where it is at this time.
Are you still in Aswan, or are you going to the Cairo Museum with the stele?
You can go anywhere, I just hope you don't come to Luxor!
The Holy Lord possessed Valon just to hide from Tang Mu.
Before his brothers and sisters suddenly gained more powerful power, the Holy Master did not want to meet Tang Mu at all.
If you are killed by this guy, you are really dead. There is no chance of resurrection.
The Holy Lord does not want this. He also wants to continue to rule the world after his resurrection.
Compared to the Holy Lord, Walong's emotions are much more complicated.
After all, Tom was his cat before.
But he also knew that the cat felt like it was no longer the same cat, and it was also very dangerous.
At the same time, he didn't like the Holy Lord possessing him, and he was still thinking about whether he could use the cat to kill the dragon.
In short, it is very complicated.
If the Holy Master knew that Tom Mu had the same destination as theirs, I wonder if it would turn around and leave.
Fortunately, there are many ships on the Nile.
The people from both sides have not come together yet.
Finally, they landed at a distance of 1.5 kilometers on the west bank of the Nile River.
Jonathan took Jackie Chan and the others to rent horses with ease.
Under the strong request of Xiaoyu and Tang Mu, they finally chose to rent camels.
Now that we have arrived in Egypt, it would be really boring not to ride a camel.
When we arrive in old Thebes, riding a camel is truly authentic!
Having decided to rent a camel, Jonathan immediately took on the task of negotiating with the horse dealer.
Because of the many legacies left by ancient Egyptian civilization, Egypt has naturally developed its tourism industry.
A pyramid can attract tourists from all over the world.
It is precisely because of this that the local tourism routines in Egypt are becoming more and more sophisticated, and there are more and more scammers.
They can tell at a glance whether you are a local or not.
As long as they are not locals, this group of businessmen and vendors dare to report their prices to the sky.
The simplest example.
Over at the Giza Pyramids, ride a camel and take photos.
They dare to ask you for 100 US dollars at the beginning, but in the end you can even negotiate the price to 10 Egyptian pounds.
At this time, Tom Mu and the others were planning to rent camels as well.
The other party quoted a sky-high price when they came up. If there is no one who can negotiate the price, they will definitely suffer a loss and be slaughtered like a pig.
That's right, it's Valon and the others they're talking about.
Valon: Danger!

Jonathan is bargaining with the boss, and Tom is not free either.With.
It believed that with Jonathan's ability, he would be able to negotiate the price to a reasonable level, and eventually he would be able to rent the camel.
In this case, it can do some preparations first.
Tom is a cat who knows how to enjoy himself, so he naturally wants to make the journey more comfortable.
So I went to buy something in a small supermarket nearby.
Evelin and Xiaoyu had just changed into a pair of newly bought Arabian-style clothes, and happened to see Tom Mu walking out with several boxes of things on his back.
Xiaoyu is okay, she has long been used to it.
This was the first time for Evelin to see this scene, and she was immediately stunned.
These days, she only thinks that Tom is a very smart cat who can walk upright at most.
But the scene in front of her now really shocked her worldview.
Evelin originally thought that was all, Tom was just a little stronger.
It's barely acceptable.
Unexpectedly, Tom Mu's next move shocked Evelin so much that her brain went numb.
Tom walked into the shed, first put the few boxes of things he had brought on the ground, and then patted the leg of a camel in front of him to signal it to sit down.
This camel is chewing fodder.
He turned his head and glanced at Tom Mu, but didn't resist. He curled up his limbs and sat down obediently.
Tom Mu brought over a small bench and stepped on it. It was like opening the lid of a rice cooker, and he naturally lifted one of the camel's humps.
Pick up a box of Coke and pour it directly into it.
Without saying anything, he poured half a box of ice cubes into it.
Finally, the hump was closed and a faucet was screwed on the side of the hump.
Done!
Seeing Evelin on the side, she was dumbfounded.
Tom was very considerate. He turned on the faucet on the hump, took a glass of ice cream and handed it to Evelin.
Looking at the ice flowing out of the hump in front of her, Evelin suddenly doubted life, and suddenly felt that this world was very unreal.
