When Zhang Zian proposed the invitation, he thought it was funny. If it worked, it would be the most ridiculous expedition team in history. The expedition team and a bunch of charlatans teamed up to enter the desert.
Since that was the case, whether or not the proposal would work depended on Peter Lee's mood. There was no other way. Who asked Peter Lee to take the initiative and use the chief as a guide?
If Peter Lee flatly refused, then there was no other way. Zhang Zian could only go back and persuade Wei Kang to cancel the original plan. It was hard to say whether Wei Kang would agree or not.
Peter Lee did not hesitate for too long. After a little hesitation, he nodded happily. "Great! I like this plan! I originally hoped to further explore the knowledge of the pure energy of the universe with you, and now my wish has finally been fulfilled! I also want to get to know the members of the expedition team. We must have a lot in common! "
No way!
Zhang Zian complained in his heart, but he was also relieved.
"Don't you need to discuss it with the others before deciding?" He gestured to the charlatans behind Peter Lee.
"No, the members of the Cosmological Information Society are like brothers and sisters. Any member's decision can represent everyone's opinion." Peter Lee smiled and turned back. "Is everyone willing to travel with Jeff and the members of the China expedition team?"
The charlatans all nodded.
"We are willing!"
"It's an honor!"
"We couldn't ask for more!"
Zhang Zian was speechless.
Forget it. There would always be a way, and there would always be a Wuling car. He would take it one step at a time.
Peter Lee announced, "In order to fully express our sincerity, all the expenses of the China expedition team after entering the desert will be borne by us. The expedition team does not need to spend a single cent!"
The charlatans did not have any objections to this decision, as if it was not their money that was being spent.
Zhang Zian did not make any meaningless modesty. No matter how generous Peter Lee was, the expedition team still had to prepare their own supplies. They could not leave the lifeline of food and water in the hands of others.
"Now that we are on the same line, can you tell me which area you are going to?" Zhang Zian asked.
Since Peter Lee had come to the Siwa Oasis to find a guide, there was no need to ask. It must be the same as the expedition team. They wanted to enter the western desert, but as for which area, they had to find out first.
"Of course." Peter Lee took out a folded map from the inner pocket of his suit and showed it to everyone.
Zhang Zian and Nabari both craned their necks to look.
"It's roughly this area. Are there any problems?" Peter Lee drew a circle with his finger. The first half of the sentence was to answer Zhang Zian, and the second half was to ask Nabari.
The area he drew was also located in the long triangle formed by the border between Egypt and Libya, the Siwa Oasis, and the Black and White Desert.
Nabari's eyebrows trembled slightly, and his pupils contracted slightly before returning to normal.
Although this was only a very small movement, it did not escape Zhang Zian's eyes. Was there something wrong with this area?
"No problem, I can take you there." He bent down to pick up a piece of charcoal from the ground and handed it to Peter Lee. "However, the area you drew out is still very large. It's best to narrow it down so that we can better prepare supplies and camels."
Peter Lee waved his hand and did not take the charcoal. He glanced at Zhang Zian and said, "When we enter the desert, I will give you a more accurate location. But for now, this is fine, right? As for camels and supplies, the more the better. Don't worry about money. "
Nabari nodded. "Okay."
Zhang Zian understood. Peter Lee was guarding against him, but this also aroused his curiosity. Did Peter Lee need to be so secretive about where he wanted to go?
The roof of the Bedouin's shack was simply made of thatch and twigs. After all, there was no need to prevent rain. It only needed to shade the house from the sun.
Zhang Zian's eyelids moved, and he noticed that the shadow on the ground seemed to move.
He raised his head slightly, and his eyes met Fina's.
It turned out that Fina had quietly run to the top of the shack. Its round green eyes were also staring at the map in Peter Lee's hands.
It seemed to have been surprised just now. Its ears moved, and the shadow formed by its ears trembled. That was how Zhang Zian noticed it.
Fina gave him a warning stare, signaling him to keep quiet.
Zhang Zian quietly retracted his gaze. He was even more puzzled. Was it not just Peter Lee and Nabari, but even Fina was interested in that area?
"Peter, what's in that desert? Can you tell me? "he asked, thick-skinned and pretending to be intimate.
Peter Lee laughed. "Do you still need to ask? Of course, it's related to the pure energy of the universe. "
Zhang Zian was speechless. That was as good as not saying anything.
They had been communicating in English, but Peter Lee suddenly switched to Chinese. With a mysterious face, he said, "Jeff, if you really want to know, why don't you join our society? There are no secrets within our society. Any information can be shared."
Zhang Zian didn't want to join that bullsh * t society. He pretended to be polite and said, "I can consider it, but you also have to show some sincerity. If it's something I'm really interested in, then it's okay to join the society."
Peter Lee was silent.
"If it's not convenient to say, then forget it." Zhang Zian adopted the strategy of loosening the reins only to grasp them better, pretending not to be very interested.
Peter Lee was fooled. He smiled and said, "It's not inconvenient. It's okay to tell you. There are capable people from all walks of life in our society. One of them accidentally got an ancient map that highlighted an area. After careful comparison, this map should be a map of ancient Egypt, and the area is located in the depths of the western desert, marked by an inverted triangle. We speculate that this inverted triangle may be a pyramid that hasn't been discovered yet. "
He sighed. "The Great Pyramid has been open for a long time. There are too many tourists visiting it every day. The cosmic energy contained in it is almost exhausted. If there is an undiscovered pyramid, it must contain a huge amount of energy that has never been seen before!"
Zhang Zian frowned. What kind of nonsense was this? Did he think he was Indiana Jones? The so-called ancient map also sounded suspicious.
However, Peter Lee had his own theory. He said, "Do you know? The first group of people who entered the Great Pyramid died one after another because of various strange diseases. People said it was the curse of the pharaoh, but in our opinion, it was because the Great Pyramid had accumulated cosmic energy for thousands of years, and they had not been trained. Their bodies could not withstand the pure and huge amount of cosmic energy. After that, with the loss of cosmic energy, the so-called curse disappeared. "
