Tom Cat breaks through the dimensional wall

Chapter 183 What's in a 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 get to Thebes, the fastest way is to go to Luxor first.

Both Evelin siblings are 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 eagerly starting to get on and off the train.

Seeing this, Xiaoyu was even more eager to give it a try.

As soon as he took off, Jackie Chan grabbed him by the collar and grabbed him 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 educating 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 out 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.

Tom 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 holidays, it takes more than ten hours to travel in both directions.

Going on it once every few years made Tom Mu's memory of old-fashioned trains very deep.

That kind of journey full of human fireworks, filled with local dialects, instant noodles, train broadcasts, playing cards and suitcases used as stools.

Every time he recalled it, Tom 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 thinks.

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 frustrations of each generation.

So Tom Mu always felt that he was lucky.

After becoming a Tom Cat, he can live the life he wants at his 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.

Xiaoyu became anxious when she saw that her shoes were taken away by Tang Mu.

She wasn't afraid of getting dirty, so she jumped directly to the ground and was picked up by Jackie Chan again.

He really had nothing to do with the two naughty guys, Tang Mu and Xiaoyu, so he could only carry Xiaoyu off the train.

It was already evening when they set off from Aswan.

It's even later now, already into the early hours of the morning.

The entire station platform is divided by dim lights, and sporadic passengers or homeless people can be seen lingering here.

The station in Luxor is not big and looks a bit like a Chinese bus station in the 1990s.

The station is generally quite old, but the architecture has an ancient Egyptian style.

Perhaps 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 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've come here, but it would be a pity not to take a look.

Jonathan was the only one with a sad face.

He really didn't think there was anything interesting about it.

Traveling is a pain for him.

Walking around, walking around, the things in the scenic area are still very expensive.

With all that free time, he might as well stay at home and sleep, or go to a bar to play cards or have a drink with someone.

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, much of the temple remains 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.

To the north of the temple, an obelisk can be seen.

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.

Tom 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 changed into a wizard's robe.

Valon 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 final warning is to work hard. I can already feel the devil's energy. It’s 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 Master shook his head crazily. Wa Long went online again, but with a look of dissatisfaction on his face: "You are still telling me about treasures. I will never trust you again. I have already learned my 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.

Neither the Holy Lord nor Wallon can be offended by them.

At present, it seems that the Holy Lord is more terrifying.

After teaching Walong a lesson, the Holy Master turned to look at Rasu 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 suddenly trembled, stood upright, and lowered their heads: "I'm sorry, Master, we haven't discovered it yet."

"What a bunch of rubbish."

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 I have the advantage and should be able to achieve my goal before they are resurrected.

In order for this group of humans to 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 wearing a waistcoat somersaulting 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 turtle turns over! The turtle turns over!

He even gave each backflip a name, and ended his appearance with the moves "Roc Spreads Wings" and "Old Cat Landing."

Looking at the strong man in front of him, the Holy Master 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: "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my destiny! 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 to 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, and the sound of chatting drifted with 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 take a boat across the Nile River 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 coast.

Everyone thought Jonathan's proposal was a good one.

Jackie Chan and the others had just stepped out, and from another hotel less than a kilometer away from them, the Mafia group also came out.

Vallone even had a copy of the latest newspaper in his hand.

Is this a local newspaper or a daily newspaper, printed in limited numbers and only available to a few places.

It is the archaeological events in Aswan that are published.

There was a period of weirdness about the British Museum and the Louvre, and finally a photo of Jackie Chan was posted, 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 inscribed on this stele, it is also written again in Greek.

In addition to ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics and Greek writing, there is also secular script 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.

Vallon was not interested in archeology, he was just 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, and 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 Walon and the Holy Lord who temporarily lived in him were greatly shaken.

It can be known from the date in the newspaper that Tom must still be in Egypt at this moment.

I just don’t know where it is at this time.

Was it still in Aswan, or was it that we went 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 devouring his brothers and sisters and gaining greater power, Saint Nervous Lord didn't want to meet Tom Mu at all.

If you are killed by this guy, you are really dead, and there is no chance of resurrection.

The Holy Lord doesn't want this. He also wants to continue to rule the world after resurrection.

Compared to Holy Lord, Wallon'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.

All in all very complex.

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 boats on the Nile.

The two parties have not yet come together.

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.

Egypt's tourism industry is naturally very developed because of the many legacies left by ancient Egyptian civilization.

Just 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 quote their prices to the sky.

The simplest example.

Riding a camel and taking photos at the Giza Pyramids.

They dare to ask you for 100 US dollars, but in the end you can even negotiate the price to 10 Egyptian pounds.

At this time, Tom Mu and others were planning to rent camels.

The other party quoted a sky-high price when they came up. If there was no one who could bargain with the price, they would definitely suffer a loss and be slaughtered like a pig.

That's right, I'm talking about Valon and the others.

Valon: Danger!

Jonathan was negotiating the price with the boss, and Tom was not idle either.

It believed that with Jonathan's ability, it would be able to negotiate the price to a reasonable level, and eventually the camels would be rented.

In this case, it can do some preparation work 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 a small supermarket nearby to buy something.

Evelin and Xiaoyu had just changed into a pair of newly purchased Arabic-style clothes, and happened to see a cat named Tom walking out carrying several boxes of things.

Fortunately, Xiaoyu 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 world view.

Evelin originally thought that was all, and that Tom Mu was just a little stronger.

It was barely acceptable.

Unexpectedly, Tom's next move made Evelin's brain freeze.

Tom walked into the shed, put the boxes he had brought on the ground, and patted the leg of a camel in front of him, signaling it to sit down.

The camel was chewing grass.

He turned his head to look at Tom, and did not resist. He curled up his limbs and sat down obediently.

Tom brought a small stool over, stepped on it, and opened the hump of the Bactrian camel very naturally, just like opening the lid of an electric rice cooker.

He picked up a box of Coke and poured it directly into it.

Not to mention, he poured half a box of ice cubes into it.

Finally, he closed the hump and turned on a faucet next to the hump.

Finished!

Evelin was stunned.

Tom was very considerate. He turned the faucet on the hump and took a glass of iced cola and handed it to Evelin.

Looking at the ice falling from the hump in front of her, Evelin doubted her life for a moment, and suddenly felt that this world was very unreal.
