The thoughts of these Tang dynasty soldiers were, of course, ridiculous. There was only one sphinx in front of the pyramid. It wasn't that the Egyptian pharaohs couldn't afford it, but there were other reasons. Since they had already built an extremely tall pyramid, why would they care about a single sphinx?
It was like a person who bought a luxury car. Why would they care about a luxurious cushion inside the luxury car? After all, the price difference between the two was huge. They wouldn't give up on the necessary accessories.
This kind of thinking was similar to the foolish people of the Republic of China. When they heard that the Wokou pirates had invaded Lugou Bridge, they guessed that the pirates had taken a fancy to the lions on Lugou Bridge. After all, there were many lions on Lugou Bridge. It was also a very famous place.
However, the Wokou pirates wanted the entire Hua Xia. Why would they care about a small place like Lugou Bridge? Not to mention the stone lions on Lugou Bridge. This was a typical case of pretending to know when you didn't know. It was ridiculous.
However, it was difficult for Ang Lee to correct these soldiers. After all, Ang Lee himself didn't understand why there was only one sphinx. If the real reason was to save money, then wouldn't Ang Lee be pretending to know when he didn't know?
This was also one of the unsolved mysteries of the Egyptian pyramids. Therefore, Ang Lee didn't dare to casually explain it. He didn't want to make a fool of himself and make a fool of himself.
Many soldiers scattered to different parts of the pyramid to look at the scenery. From time to time, they would touch the stones of the pyramid with their hands to feel the difference between the stones on the pyramid and ordinary stones.
"This is the sphinx! It looks so strange! Did ancient Egypt really have such a thing? "
Li Xiaolu looked at the sphinx in front of her and asked.
Ang Lee smiled and said, "How could ancient Egypt have such a strange thing? It's just someone's imagination. However, I'm not very sure. Maybe ancient Egypt really did have such a strange thing!"
Obviously, Ang Lee was not omnipotent. He was not a person who knew everything about astronomy and geography. There were many things in the world that Ang Lee did not know. There were even many things that no one knew and no one could know.
After circling the Sphinx a few times, Ang Lee and most of his subordinates walked toward the Great Pyramid of Egypt. After all, that was the purpose of their trip.
The Great Pyramid was the largest and most majestic pyramid in Egypt, and it was also the burial place of the Egyptian Pharaoh, Khufu. There were too many mysterious places here, and it had attracted a large number of tourists in the future. Now, it had attracted Ang Lee and the others to inspect it.
"Everyone, there is an entrance to the pyramid. Hurry up and look for it. Where is the entrance to the pyramid? Hurry up and find it."
Ang Lee said with a smile. He took Li Xiaolu to the shade of the pyramid and sat on a chair placed by his subordinates, waiting for the results of the inspection.
"Assistant Minister Li, is there really an entrance to the pyramid? Our Sultan has sent people to look for it many times, but they have not found it. Many people have tried to find the entrance to the pyramid before, but in the end, no one was able to do so. They all could not find the entrance. "
Osman's subordinate walked over quietly and said with a frown.
Obviously, he was telling the truth. Osman, who had just entered Egypt, could not do without a lot of money whether he wanted to develop or expand. The possible treasures inside the pyramid naturally attracted his attention. He had sent many soldiers to find the entrance to the pyramid, even resorting to destroying it. However, they could not find the entrance, which hurt him greatly. Therefore, when he heard the report from his subordinates that Ang Lee had arrived at the pyramid, he did not take it seriously. He did not actively come to visit Ang Lee. He just asked his subordinates to cooperate with Ang Lee and let Ang Lee have fun.
Unlike the Sultan who insisted that Ang Lee could not find the entrance to the pyramid, his subordinates believed in Ang Lee. However, Ang Lee had asked his subordinates to look for the entrance. Ang Lee's subordinates were just ordinary soldiers of the Tang dynasty. They did not seem to have any special abilities. They also used their eyes to search carefully around the pyramid. Since he and his subordinates could not find the entrance, why could Ang Lee's soldiers find the entrance? He had great doubts in his heart. He absolutely believed that the soldiers of the Tang dynasty had strong combat power because the weapons of the Tang dynasty were too advanced. Naturally, their combat power was far superior to his troops. However, he did not believe that the soldiers of the Tang dynasty had better eyesight than them. They all had two eyes. Why could they not find the entrance, but you could? The soldiers of the Tang dynasty were all ordinary people. How could they have any special abilities?
With such doubts, Osman's subordinates asked Ang Lee for advice in puzzlement. They wanted Ang Lee to clear up their doubts.
Ang Lee looked sideways at Osman's subordinates and said, "So many people can't find the entrance to the pyramid. Is the legend of the pyramid a lie? How is that possible? The things recorded in the ancient books of the Tang dynasty are generally true. How could this happen? They must not have searched carefully enough. That's why they have not found the entrance to the pyramid. "
"Assistant Minister Li, I have personally led people to search for the pyramid for a month. I have checked every stone. Indeed, we did not find the entrance. In order to find the entrance, our soldiers destroyed hundreds of stones. In the end, we still found nothing. We can't tear down the entire pyramid, can we? That would be too much work. "
Osman's subordinates frowned and said.
Ang Lee smiled and said, "There must be an entrance to the pyramid. It's just difficult to find it for the time being. As long as we search carefully, we will definitely find it. We are not in a hurry. Let's take our time. There's no hurry."
As someone who already knew where the entrance was, Li An naturally wasn't in a hurry. If the soldiers didn't find anything later, Li An would personally point out the entrance. After that, it would be up to everyone to dig up the entrance.
Since Ang Lee had said so, Osman's subordinates did not say anything else. They could only accompany Ang Lee and wait beside the pyramid. The work of finding the entrance could be left to the subordinates.
In addition to the hundreds of soldiers under Ang Lee's command, there were also the 200 warriors under Osman's command who participated in the search for the entrance to the pyramid. They divided up the work and used the method of cross-searching to increase the probability of finding the entrance.
"Little beauty, you must be thirsty! Drink some coconut milk! "
Ang Lee drank a few mouthfuls of coconut milk and gave the remaining half to Li Xiaolu to let Li Xiaolu have a taste.
Li Xiaolu was indeed thirsty. She took the remaining half of the coconut milk and happily drank it.
"How long have you been searching? Have you found the entrance to the pyramid?"
Ang Lee had waited for a long time. He looked at his subordinates and asked.
"Assistant Minister Li, we have searched two or three times. None of the soldiers have been lazy. We really can't find the entrance to the pyramid. Perhaps there is no entrance to the pyramid at all! Or perhaps the entrance to the pyramid is underground and we need to dig three feet underground to find it. "
Osman's subordinates said.
Osman's subordinates quickly said, "I'm afraid we can't find the entrance even if we dig three feet underground. We have already dug the ground. There is no entrance at all. There really isn't one."
"In that case, there is really no way."
Ang Lee's subordinates said helplessly.
Ang Lee naturally understood the difficulties of his subordinates. The entrance to the pyramid was originally very hidden. It was not easy to find it. They had to search very carefully. Even so, they might not necessarily find it. It also depended on luck and the degree of meticulousness.
Of course, with the information that Ang Lee had, the entrance to the pyramid was extremely hidden. It was impossible to find it at all. Unless one knew in advance that there was an entrance, the probability of finding it was almost zero.
The reason why Ang Lee let his subordinates search first and let them be burdened was because he wanted to gain more prestige when his subordinates couldn't find it.
"Isn't it just the entrance to the pyramid? Is it so difficult to find? It actually made things difficult for you all. Fine! I will go look for it myself. If I really find the entrance, I will teach you all a lesson. "
Ang Lee stood up, took Li Xiaolu's little hand, and walked towards the pyramid.
In order to not let others suspect that he already knew the entrance to the pyramid, Ang Lee did not directly walk to the known entrance. Instead, he walked to the side of the entrance and pretended to observe every stone along the way. He even knocked a few times with his hands to feel the difference between these stones.
"Assistant Minister Li, these stones are all the same. What can you prove by knocking on them with your hands?"
Osman's subordinates frowned and asked for guidance, thinking that Ang Lee was very mysterious.
"Shh, I am talking to the stones. Don't disturb me."
Li An pretended to continue knocking on the stone until his fingers started to hurt. Only then did he stop.
"Assistant Minister Li, these stones can also talk."
Osman's subordinates' eyes almost popped out. Obviously, he did not believe that Ang Lee could talk to the stones. This was simply impossible. How could a person talk to stones? Stones could not talk.
Li An smiled and said, "It's not just stones that can speak. Everything in nature has a language. It just depends on whether you can comprehend it or not. This is a metaphysics in our Tang Empire. It's a very mysterious school of thought. Ordinary people have no chance to learn it."
I continued to knock on the stones as I spoke.
"Assistant Minister Li, what did these stones say?"
Osman's subordinates were still suspicious. However, even if they were suspicious, they did not dare to refute Ang Lee directly. They could only choose to believe him and ask for more details to make a better judgment.
"What did they say?"
Ang Lee paused and said, "These stones told me that the entrance to the pyramid is on that side. I asked many stones and they all said the same thing. Let's go! Let's go to that side and have a look. "
I stopped knocking on the stones and walked directly to the side with the entrance.
"Wow, these stones can really talk. Why can't I hear them?"
Li Xiaolu also felt that it was inconceivable. She asked anxiously while walking.
Ang Lee smiled faintly and did not answer Li Xiaolu's question. It was nonsense that the stones could talk. Since it was nonsense, there was nothing to say. Explaining was also very tiring.
Soon, Ang Lee and the others arrived at the side with the entrance. They all looked at Ang Lee, waiting for Ang Lee to show his skills.
Ang Lee pretended to look around and pointed to a position above. He said, "There is a faint Yin Qi here. The entrance should be here. Dig the stones here and find the entrance."
"Yes, Assistant Minister Li."
The subordinates did not dare to doubt Ang Lee and hurriedly responded.
Soon, a large number of Tang dynasty soldiers began to walk to the side with the entrance and began to dig according to Ang Lee's request.
"Assistant Minister Li, these stones are too hard. It's really difficult to dig! I can't see any obvious traces of the entrance. I'm afraid that if we don't dig accurately enough, it will be in vain. "
The subordinates went to command for a long time and then came back to complain to Ang Lee. Ang Lee felt that he had to go up in person. He paused and said, "Okay! Let me go up and have a look. By the way, prepare the explosives. Later, use the explosives directly to blow up the stones outside the entrance. "
After that, he went up in person and found the entrance according to the memory of his previous life. After all, there were subtle differences between the stones at the entrance and the cracks between the stones next to it. However, the differences were so small that it was not worth mentioning. The pyramid was very large and there were too many cracks between the stones. It was quite difficult to find a slightly different crack among such a large number of cracks.
"Did you see that? The cracks between the stones here are a little different from other places. This means that the entrance is here. Immediately dig a few explosive points here and prepare to blow up the stones outside the entrance."
Ang Lee had just climbed up and found the exact location of the entrance, which made the people around him stunned.
Osman's subordinates and Li An's subordinates all ran over to observe carefully. They quickly discovered that the stone crevice at the entrance was indeed very different from other places. This made them sigh. After all, they had searched for it just now, but they didn't find anything different here. Osman's subordinates, in particular, had led thousands of people to search around the Great Pyramid for several months, but they still didn't find anything unusual here. He couldn't help but sigh.
"See! There is still something different. Your people have been searching for a few months, but you still haven't found anything? "
Ang Lee looked at Osman's subordinates and said sarcastically.
"Our people are too careless. They haven't found anything after so long. It's really not right."
Osman's subordinates said with shame.
Ang Lee smiled and turned to look at his subordinates. He said unhappily, "See! There are clearly traces here. Why can't you find it? Are you all slacking off? Shouldn't you be punished? "
