Chapter 53 The Priest’s Scam

Dinner was held next to an open-air bonfire. While people were constantly serving delicious food, there were also singing and dancing performances on the raised platform.

In addition to our group, there were many European and American people sitting around several bonfires. As the atmosphere got warmer, they had also drank a lot, and their cheers were no longer as reserved and restrained as they were at the beginning.

When the belly dance performance started, it really ignited everyone's enthusiasm.

We all looked at the dancer on the stage in amazement. Her dance was full of power and beauty.

Especially in this place with only the sky and the desert, you can strongly feel the vitality like a wild animal. When she lay on her back on her spread skirt and her body rose and fell under the contraction of her muscles, the audience was excited.

To be honest, before she danced, I never thought that human muscles and bones could move like this.

Different from the fiery and bold style of this sister, the girls who accompanied the dancers were all wearing traditional long skirts, and the Arab costumes covered their arms very well. In the last move, the dancer stopped halfway

As a curtain call, several girls spread their arms and surrounded her.

The curtain call was truly stunning.

I kept clapping, but my eyes were unconsciously attracted to a girl on the left side of the stage. Under her sleeves that had fallen off, there was a birthmark that was the same as Hassan's golden seal.

The birthmark is now depicted as a blooming lotus blooming on her wrist.

It's Laila.

Why is she here? I am puzzled.

Judging from the attitude of the ancient Egyptian priests, it seems that they never want to have anything to do with magnetic fields.

Hassan was willing to take Li Yuan and I to see Mustafa in order to completely remove ourselves. Because as [ancient bloodline], they did not want to step into the cursed desert.

But now Laila appears on our way.

I poked Li Yuan and signaled to him that Laila was on the stage. He nodded and had already discovered this.

As soon as the performance was over, before we could go find her, Laila herself came and explained her purpose.

As expected, this girl wanted to follow us to the desert to find the temple of Thutmose III.

Xia, Shang and Zhou were in trouble.

After all, with Li Yuan here, we don’t need Laila’s bloodline. Although it’s not impossible to bring her with us. She’s just a little girl, so it’s really not a big deal. But this time, Laila kept it secret from Hassan and the others.

. It wouldn't be possible if those ancient Egyptian priests who were eyeballs on her were also involved. Not to mention the United Nations, which wants to join us.

Rhea said that there was no problem in bringing a little girl, and she didn't even ask Meng Weiqing. He wouldn't agree to it anyway.

When Meng Weiqing found out, he really didn't want to cause trouble. Although Teacher Bai also felt that it was not necessary to take Laila with him, he couldn't just leave the little girl alone.

Laila was also very courageous. She dared to block people on the road when she was alone. She bit her lip when she saw that others were not keen on taking her with them.

"Brother, they thought the matter was over, but I know it's not." Facing Meng Weiqing's scrutinizing gaze, Laila was nervous, but she still tried to keep her voice steady. "In your words, I have been transformed. I

My uncle was also transformed before me. My brother Hassan was also transformed after he got the gold seal. After that, my transformation stopped. Hassan thought they only needed to let you go into the desert. From then on

Everything has nothing to do with us anymore. But I know it’s not that easy.”

"Now that your transformation is over, go home. We will find someone to take you back." It was Teacher Bai who spoke.

Laila didn't expect him to say that, so she opened her mouth slightly in surprise and widened her eyes. This girl is really cute. It's a pity that just being lovable doesn't work well.

She also realized this and looked up at Teacher Bai with determination.

"What if I said that when Hassan found the golden seal, I also got the method of stargazing? That is a technology that only ancient Egyptian priests can master, and can distinguish the direction guided by the gods." Laila's eyes were firm. "And I

He is the only astrological priest."

Laila is actually a priest who can interpret the will of the ancient Egyptian gods. This level is quite high. But with Li Yuan's plug-in, we don't really need ancient Egyptian stargazing.

But I’m very curious about how Laila knew our route and arranged for the identity of the dancers to wait here. To say that no one told her, that’s quite new. As for who revealed it to her, actually

There is no suspense.

Sure enough, when we got up the next day, we saw the United Nations, which had arrived a step behind us.

Arno came up to me with a smile as soon as we met him. He put his hands on my and Li Yuan's shoulders without any hint of surprise. He looked quite tired, and his curly hair was a little droopy. But he was still neat and tidy.

You must be very energetic, and your clothes look like they have just been put on.

Alex also greeted us. Although he was wearing sunglasses, he could still see the dark circles under his eyes.

"Yu, you guys are taking it easy. Our backs and backs ached from the car ride all the way." Ya Nuo complained hypocritically while doing stretching exercises. "You were all asleep when we got here last night."

It turned out that after the separation, Arnold followed Morgan and the others to Abydos, a religious holy land in ancient Egypt, and then drove all the way back. In order to catch up with us, he spent the past two days sleeping in the open air.

I nodded: "The road you travel is all in your face."

If I expected to meet Morgan and his group here, I was actually a little surprised to see Hassan, Ali and Socrates appearing with them.

But Arno was not surprised to see Laila.

When Hassan and the others caught up with Morgan and others, Laila had already run away from home. As expected, Hassan got the news and was able to find the United Nations in Abydos.

However, there is no press conference on the routes taken by 279, Morgan and others. If outsiders want to pursue us, they will have to know where we are unless someone wants them to know where we are.

What surprised me even more was that Hassan and others had actually made up their minds from the beginning to go with them to the Sahara Desert to find the temple of Thutmose III that contained the answer.

Originally, a few of us were thinking about going with 279. After all, we are a lot more kind-hearted than Carl. But we didn’t expect that Li Yuan was not only the [Ancient Bloodline], but we also got the [Magnetic Field Guide] from Lord Black.

, they are not needed at all.

When they didn't see Laila at Morgan's place, Ali, although anxious, used the incident to lobby the United Nations.

The cunning Egyptian said that since Lord Black had given the pocket watch to the Chinese, he would only be able to balance it if he took it with them.

Arnold immediately said that Yue Chen had lent him the pocket watch.

Although Ali did not expect this, he insisted that they still knew some things that no one knew. Especially the desert where Hassan's family went to sixty years ago and twelve years ago. As the true heir of the priest,

Laila has probably defected to us. If we don't take Hassan and others with us, we will miss the bargaining chip.

Speaking of which, in fact, Morgan and others' own chips are almost equal to 279, and both parties know this very well.

[Ancient Bloodline] 279 There is Li Yuan, and Morgan at least has Alex, if she is not the only one in the team; Sir Black's pregnancy is now in the hands of Arnold, and Li Yuan himself is a living radar; as for those who can change the magnetic field

Of stones, at least we have the one brought from Sichuan, and they may have a few remaining ones.

Originally, Morgan did not want to bring Hassan and the others with him, out of the same consideration as Meng Weiqing and others: these Egyptians could not be here for voluntary labor. The reason why he was willing to bring three Egyptians here was to confirm

Has Laila been taken along with us?

After all, no matter what Laila knows, relatively speaking, it is always better to keep Hassan and others around.

It seems like someone is balancing the progress of our two teams so that neither party can enter the desert first. And that person seems to be in control of our every move. Not only 279, but also Morgan and the others.

Know it like the back of your hand.

I suspect that Dr. White must have some plans, but it may not be just him. If Dr. White can really control our two teams and three groups of people by himself, then he will be too powerful.

Already.

In short, after exchanging some information, we started to care about each other.

Arnaud smacked his lips when he heard how we met Leila, and felt quite sorry that he had not seen the dance.

Alex took off his sunglasses just to let Arnold see her white eyes better.

The rest of the journey went smoothly. With the map kindly provided by Sir Black - he also thoughtfully marked the road conditions sixty years ago, twelve years ago and now - we were on our way to the village where the Temple of Set was located.

There were not many wrongdoings on the road.

Although we were following Old Blake's route, our pace was much faster than those of those sixty years ago. So we arrived at that village on the afternoon of the fourth day of the borrowed full moon.

The only incident was that when we were approaching the Temple of Set, we were stopped by the patrolling Egyptian military. No wonder, after all, two teams of people and dozens of vehicles with dozens of foreigners were a bit eye-catching.

The guides on both sides knew the real destinations of both sides, and they were both human beings. They only said that we were an expedition team from China and white tourists, but we could be classified together as being taken advantage of.

So these stupid fat sheep with lots of money were let go, of course after scraping off a layer of oil and water.

Due to Laila's joining, some adjustments were made to the staffing of the 279 car. Laila followed Xia Shangzhou, Han Jiangxue, and Jiang Can and moved to our car.

Hassan, Ali and Socrates were packed into different United Nations cars.

I have no sympathy for their situation. Hassan said that they did not want to be involved with the magnetic field issue anymore, but taking Li Yuan and I to see Mustafa was just to deceive us into believing that they really wanted to enter the desert.

These Egyptians actually messed with us again.

In other words, I actually let these people set up another fight.

Mustafa violated the priest's duties sixty years ago and was cursed. His descendants were also transformed and became the "ancient bloodline" recognized by the altar.

According to this theory, Hassan and Laila should have lost their qualifications as ancient Egyptian priests and become existences rejected by the gods.

So why on earth did they go into the desert to find the temple of Thutmose III with these people who should have been stopped?

What are the identities of Hassan and Laila now?

It actually capsized in the gutter, twice.
