Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
Cairo, one of the oldest cities in human history, a city with a history of five thousand years, which is longer than the civilization history of most races in the world. The regular flooding of the Nile River created the ancient civilization of ancient Egypt, It also shaped this ancient city by the Nile.
The unique dry climate preserves the ancient ruins of the city.
Make the messy roads and buildings in the city stand together with the pyramids outside the city. The old and old Egyptians have been extinct. The new owner in this ancient land is the group holding the Quran God forced the **** to worship, the Egyptian gods and pyramids have become history.
The culture of this city is faulty. This ancient civilization and history have nothing to do with its new owner. Not every civilization is as prosperous and endless as the Chinese civilization!
Although Egypt is outside the pyramid area, it is full of noise, dirt and backwardness, like a huge chaotic and disorderly construction site, and there are uncapped rotten buildings everywhere. People here believe that the family continues to proliferate Prosperity will continue to put forward new requirements for the family's living space, and Egypt's unique laws prevent most Egyptians from capping their houses.
They will add one or more floors upstairs after the birth of the next generation ... In Egypt, building houses will always be the present tense.
But this is Cairo, but it is the place where wealthy people across Africa want to settle.
The rich settle in the Nars district next to the airport, while the poor ...
These dilapidated buildings with questionable construction qualifications, not to mention the design of the rotten building, are not the places where the poorest people in Egypt live.
True poor people can only live in the city of the dead-comparable to the slums of Brazil and the slums of Mumbai. This is the dirtiest area in Egypt. This is the taboo. It is the shadow of Cairo under the sun. This city is the darkest, the epitome of chaos.
Dead City-not an exaggerated decoration, but a real city that belongs to the dead.
This is the cemetery of Cairo. Although modern Egyptians are of Arab origin, *** are also inevitably influenced by the ancient Egyptian religion here. They are like ancient Egyptians and Chinese in the Western Han Dynasty. In the tradition of dying like life, they think that people who died are still living underground as before.
So the ancient Egyptians created the pyramids, and the Han dynasty Chinese buried their daily necessities and built huge tombs.
The modern Egyptians buried the dead in the underground burial chamber, but built a magnificent, living-like building above the burial chamber.
Wealthy families will hire tomb-keepers, live in these buildings, and keep spirits for the dead-another kind of customs that is very similar to ancient China, but no family will prosper, so there will be no invitations The homeless tramp lived inside and lived with the tomb-keepers. This is Carlo's-City of the Dead!
Strange looked at the tomb where the living and the dead lived together. Chen Ang asked him next to him, "Have you never been here before?"
Strange shook his head: "I have come to Cairo to attend an academic conference ..."
"But all live in a magnificent hotel?" Chen Ang asked rhetorically: "In fact, even tourists will not come here. Although this is the real characteristic of Cairo, it is more culturally representative than the pyramid, think about it Look, a modern pyramid where living and dead people live together, mixed with religion, traditional culture, the stubborn disease of the modern city and the shadow of the country. "
"But just like the slums are also Rio features, tourists prefer to jump in Samba rather than dabble in it. After all, the gangs are not particular. This is also the abandoned place of the city."
"The ruler of the slum is a gangster!" Strange said seriously: "Who is the ruler here?"
"A more dangerous presence!" Chen Ang sighed.
"Even gangsters are reluctant to live in this kind of insidious place. Except for people who really have nothing, who wants to live with the dead, *** teaches it as filthy. Only the lunatics of Fudu Only shaman wizards are happy to be here. The group of voodoo wizards is huge in Africa, even if Egypt is a *** country, it has also been infiltrated by Voodooism. This is the paradise of Voodoo wizards. Living on the edge of life and death can communicate with the souls of the dead and make their mana stronger. "
"And the underground here is also rich in treasure!"
"You mean ... they still steal the tomb?" Strange surprised.
"Otherwise? Why do the rich want to hire a tomb keeper?" Chen Ang introduced: "Kama Taj's knowledge is too old! Although there are very detailed knowledge of spells and occultism, but they will not Let me tell you, in a modern Egypt, such a silently developed capital of the dead will not record the trends of Voodooism in the new century. "
"These secret little news, inscribed in the blood and shadow of urban development, can only be understood by staying close to here."
"The rich people hired tomb keeper, in addition to driving away the poor who have nothing, but also responsible for guarding the remains and burial objects of their relatives in the catacombs. And the wizards just took a fancy to the rich bone resources here Can be a rich funerary item of spell items and casting materials. "
"Gold and silver vessels, burial gems, and antiques!"
Walking on an empty street, there are smelly garbage on both sides. The streets here are like other poor areas, with garbage everywhere, cats and dogs wandering. However, the streets here are more narrow and messy, with no street name signs, no traffic police and security police, and the maze-like streets are empty.
The tombs in the "Dead City" were built in the style of folk houses, with courtyards, walls, gates, houses, and burial chambers. Most houses have only one or two floors and appear low. The wall beside the gate is engraved with the name of the tomb owner and the row number of the tomb. Underneath the tomb was buried caskets.
The street number is not the name and number of the head of the house, but the name of the tomb owner and the number of the tomb.
There are about 1 million Egyptians living in the "Dead City".
Chen Ang stopped in front of a more magnificent burial chamber. Behind them, they watched their eyes disappearing without a trace. The wizard is a big man here, whoever finds them, whether or not they are unlucky None of these gangsters in the dead city can bother.
Strange looked at the tomb with the name of the owner of the tomb in front of him, hesitating for a moment and said, "I'm still waiting for you outside!"
"So, don't you want to go in?" Chen Ang seems to be smiling: "Then guard the door, don't let him run away!"
Chen Ang knocked on the door, and a voice with a West African tribal accent warned in English: "Who?"
"Master, someone introduced me to ask you to buy something!" Chen Ang said in a low voice.
The people inside were silent for a while, only to hear the sound of someone rubbing up, the chair dragged on the ground, and made a loud noise. The man leaned to the door and whispered: "Who introduced you!"
Chen Ang ’s hand passed through the middle of the wooden door. He pierced through a thick solid wood door about three centimeters, grabbed the man ’s collar, dragged his head over it, and pressed it heavily against the door. Chen Ang faced The position of the man ’s ear at the door whispered: "Death introduces us ... If you do n’t want to die, you better open the door obediently. My gun is attached to the door, the position of your head. If you want to let the bullet go through the wooden door Then cross your head ... ten, nine, eight, seven ... "
"I fire! I fire!" the man said in a panic: "Don't shoot!"
When Strange heard the door open with a click, he moved forward a little bit with discomfort, and saw Chen Ang loosen the man ’s collar and threw the door heavily, a thin black man, carrying All kinds of Voodoo spell materials, various bones and magic tools taken from the body, fell down and sat on the ground, looking out of the door in horror.
Chen Ang walked in with a cold face and told Strange: "Come in and close the door!"
Strange had to obey the order. He walked in reluctantly, closed the door, and the tomb was under his feet. The house was very dark. The only light source was the doorway penetrated by Chen Ang. Chen Ang found a place and did it. Come down and face the voodoo wizard's face.
He asked: "Is someone looking for your help three months ago?"
The wizard was very frightened, but his eyes still moved slightly, and he seemed to be looking for his gun. He said: "Sir, there are so many people asking for help every month, I do n’t know which one!"
"I will help you remember." Chen Ang said calmly.
