The sun rose, and the temperature rose rapidly.
Zhang Zian brought the elfins back to the hotel where they were staying. When he went upstairs, he passed by a strong white man with a hearty smile. Fortunately, he had tied Richard's beak in advance. Otherwise, it would have probably whistled.
They woke up too early in the morning, and Wei Kang and the others wouldn't arrive until a few hours later. They could use this time to catch up on sleep.
Zhang Zian turned on the air conditioner and hung Richard up with a rope. He stretched and laid down, and his eyes met with Fina's.
Fina jumped onto the bedside table and looked down at him.
"What … What is it?"
Zhang Zian glanced at its claws in fear, wondering if it was still angry about what happened yesterday. It had been angry for a long time. It had barely spoken to him since last night. Even if it did speak, it was nothing more than "hungry," "thirsty," and "sleepy," ordering him to prepare food, drink, and make the bed.
"Let me ask you, what is the 'Tomb of Time' you were talking about?" Fina's eyes were bright, and when it spoke, its pair of white canine teeth flashed coldly.
Now that he had lost the upper hand, Zhang Zian swallowed and carefully smiled. "It's not a thing. It's a fictional thing in a novel."
"Oh, then why were you so surprised when you heard the word?" Fina asked.
"This … Because the shape of that thing is a bit like a pyramid."
Seeing that it was interested, Zhang Zian searched for the legends about Tomb of Guangyin in his memory.
Other elfins besides Pi were also interested in this topic. They had originally planned to catch up on sleep, but now they all listened with great interest.
"What is an inverse entropy field? What is going against the flow of time? Speak human language! "
Fina was getting impatient. It slapped its claws and scolded Zhang Zian.
Zhang Zian saw a deep scratch appear on the bedside table, and he almost peed his pants.
"Science fiction is like this. They always deliberately put together some pretentious words to make it look high and mighty," he defended himself. "In fact, it means that … the tomb is a strange space that connects the past and the future. Something like that."
"Connects the past and the future?" Fina repeated, "You mean … you can see people who are already dead and people who haven't been born yet?"
Zhang Zian nodded and then shook his head. "In theory, yes, but don't take it seriously. It's just a setting in a novel."
Fei Na thought for a moment. "You don't think this thing exists?"
Zhang Zian smiled bitterly. "It's just a setting in the novel. I can't say it's completely impossible, but the possibility of it actually existing is very, very, very, very, very low … It's much lower than the probability of me winning the special prize in the lottery every day."
Fei Na glanced at the southwest through the window and said thoughtfully, "I believe it exists."
Who gave you the confidence? Zhang Zian almost blurted out, but for the sake of his own safety, he swallowed it back down. Otherwise, a male corpse would appear in the hotel.
He waited for a while, but Fina didn't seem to want to explain its thoughts in detail.
As soon as Richard's mouth was untied, he called out, "Ga ga! I've never read this novel, but I've heard it from others. I know why an idiot like you doesn't like and can't understand this novel! "
"Oh? Why? Why don't you tell me? I'll say this first. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll use 502 to glue your mouth shut! "Zhang Zian threatened.
"It's very simple. This is a novel about 'love.' You've never been in love, so of course you don't understand it!" Richard said and even began to sing. "Zian, you don't understand love. Your chastity belt will fall …"
Zhang Zian said, "… You wait. It's not convenient for me to deal with you now!"
Fina seemed to have finished asking its questions. It jumped back onto its bed and lay down quietly, as if it was going to sleep. However, its tail hung down from the side of the bed and swayed, indicating that it was thinking about something that was rarely seen.
Zhang Zian was scared, and his sleepiness temporarily subsided.
He glanced at the elfins and suddenly felt that the elfins could form a pilgrimage team similar to Peter Lee's. For example, Vladimir could be a consul, Pi could be a poet, Richard could be a scholar, Famous could be a colonel, and Fina could be a detective. The rest of the priests and saints didn't seem to have suitable candidates. If Old Time Tea was considered a (martial arts) saint, it seemed that they were still missing an elfin like the priest.
Priest …
Priest …
Priest …
He muttered the name of the priest and fell asleep unknowingly.
Xinghai tilted its head and blinked its silver-gray eyes at him. It yawned and lay down to sleep as well.
He didn't know how long he had slept, but what woke him up was the sound of a message on his phone.
He got up in a daze and saw that Wei Kang and the others had already arrived at Siwa.
"Wake up! Professor Wei Kang and the others have arrived. It's time for us to check out. If we check out after noon, we'll have to pay for another day! I'm paying for this myself! "
He woke the elfins up, tidied up a little, and brought the elfins to the entrance of the hotel to greet them.
The weather outside was very hot, and the sun was as hot as ever.
A few Prado cars stopped at the entrance of the hotel. Wei Kang and his four disciples walked out of the car, everyone's faces full of anticipation and excitement.
Gao Ke, He He, and the other young people were very interested in this historic town, but time did not allow them to sightsee. They were urged by Wei Kang to help Zhang Zian with his luggage.
Zhang Zian and Wei Kang chatted for a while because Peter and Nabari were still waiting at the Bedouin tribe. Even though Wei Kang and the others had traveled a long way, they still had to leave immediately.
Zhang Zian left the SUV that Lazart had lent him at the hotel. He couldn't drive this kind of car into the desert. It was easy to get stuck in the sand and not be able to get out. If he could successfully return from the desert, he would drive this car back to Cairo and personally return it to its owner.
After a short rest, Zhang Zian drove a car in front to lead the way, leading Wei Kang and the others to the Bedouin tribe.
After arriving at the tribe, the young people were inevitably shocked by the primitive and rough lifestyle of the Bedouin people. They took all kinds of photos and posted them on their social media.
Peter and the others were waiting at the entrance of the tribe. Zhang Zian introduced them to Wei Kang, and at the same time, introduced Nabari and Salem to Wei Kang.
Salem got along very well with the young people. They quickly became one, talking and laughing.
Wei Kang, Nabari, and Peter gathered together, once again confirming the preparations before entering the desert and the route after entering the desert.
Zhang Zian watched everything silently. If Nabari was considered neutral, the two teams had exactly seven people.
Fifteen people each had their own goals. They were about to temporarily form a team and go deep into the unknown depths of the desert.
