Stayed for another few days.

Ye Kai found a group of people on the west bank of Luxor, who were very likely to be of ancient Egyptian descent, and their appearance, figure, and dress still had many characteristics of the pharaonic era.

If Egypt also had ethnic groups, they could be called pharaohs.

The pharaohs refuse to intermarry, have a stable bloodline, live a simple life, and are very simple in thinking, and several pharaohs Ye Kai knows are engaged in hand-carving and cultural relics protection.

The entire mausoleums and temples on the west bank of the Nile are protected by them.

In many movies about the Egyptian pharaohs, you can always see a group of Egyptians who have guarded the tombs for generations, as if they existed to protect the peace of the pharaohs after their deaths.

I didn't expect that there really is such a group of people in reality.

The palms of these 'old men' were very rough, the cracks in their fingertips were full of stone powder, and their tall and thin faces were dark...... Ye Kai felt that maybe the people who built the pyramid at the beginning looked like them.

As soon as he set foot on the West Bank, the Pharaoh friends he met two days ago greeted Ye Kai warmly.

"Ye, where do you want to go today?"

The old man is very wooden, basically does not have much contact with tourists, and few people do business, they have been in the mausoleum complex on the west bank for thousands of years, but they are not the managers of the scenic area today.

Their most contact with tourists may be to show some tourists the way, and Ye Kai also found this group of people when he was asking for directions.

"I'll just come over for a walk, Buster, didn't you go to the mausoleum to repair the relics today?"

"There are so many people, I'll come out and take a break,"

Butters smokes, and he is an old smoking gun, and by looking at his yellow teeth, he knows that this person must not have been smoking for a short time, and he has a great addiction to smoking, and he should have come out to smoke now.

Inside the attraction won't stop you from smoking, but Buster still keeps the crowd away.

It's polite.

What modern Egyptians don't understand, or don't care about, has been passed down in this forgotten race, etiquette is the hallmark of a civilized nation, many Egyptians have forgotten, but someone finally remembers.

Ye Kai is ready to leave, he is going to take a boat to the desert in the distance today.

At this time, another Pharaoh clan known to Ye Kai came over, his name was Arya, four years younger than Ye Kai, very young. He is not engaged in the protection and restoration of cultural relics like the older generation of old people, but works as a tour guide in the scenic area.

Aria is very fond of Egyptian cultural relics, and he told Ye Kai a story that when he was young, his teacher would take them to travel around Egypt and see many cultural relics that were discarded in the wilderness.

At that time, no one paid attention to the artifacts, and the students would even pee on the artifacts, pick up the stones on the ground and smash the ears of a statue until the ears of the sculptures were knocked off.

Later Aria learned that the statue was more than 3,000 years old.

The general emphasis on cultural relics only happened later when Egypt's tourism industry emerged, and he hoped that more tourists would come to Egypt to attract more economy in order for the government to pay more attention to cultural relics.

In Arria's view, he is also protecting the relics, but in a different way.

Seeing Ye Kai, he began to pour bitter water: "That group of Korean tourists just now was so unruly that they actually wanted to enter the temple in shoes. ”

Most of the temples in Egypt are mosques, and everyone should take off their shoes when entering the temple, and everyone should put the shoes on their own hands, and when sitting on the carpet, they should put the soles of the shoes on the side of the bottom, and should not unzip the soles on the carpet.

If you put your shoes directly on the carpet, what's the difference between them and not taking them off?

Ye Kai went to the Saladin Fort Mosque once a few days ago, but he also went to such a temple, because of the reason why you can only enter by taking off your shoes, there is a very strong smell in these temples.

Needless to say, you know what it smells like.

"It's really rare for tourists like you to come by, and it would be nice if everyone could take a good look at the artifacts. ”

Ye Kai asked, "Why do you say that, do I have anything special?"

Aria blurted out, "It's so special!"

He wrenched his hands and counted down the current tourists:

"First, they didn't listen to my explanations very carefully, they only thought about shopping and taking pictures! Oh my God, I said many times not to buy things in the scenic spot, but they didn't listen!

Second, every night I was full of energy, I didn't know what to do, I drank and played cards, and I looked sleepy when I went out the next morning...... Is this here for a tour?"

yes, isn't this just for tourism?

Do you really think that everyone who travels to Egypt is an archaeologist and comes here because they want to know the history of Egypt?

Naive.

However, he is very grateful to the current Chinese people, because in recent years, the proportion of Chinese people who travel to Egypt has greatly increased.

It's hard to guess whether they like the Chinese because of their arrogance.

Pointing to a small bell tower in the church of Saladin's castle, Aria said:

"This thing was sent by the French, we gave them a beautiful obelisk, but they sent such an unspeakable thing, I regret it now, I think it is better to give the obelisk to the Chinese. ”

"It turns out that the French obelisk was given by you. ”

Ye Kai liked the Place de la Concorde very much when he lived in Paris, and he also had a deep influence on the obelisk there, and now he knows that the French obelisk was actually sent by Egypt...... At the beginning, Ye Kai was also snatched back by the French.

Now I know that there is also an injustice to Egypt.

However, the exchange of the obelisk for such a non-ornamental and non-historical significance, Egypt did do a loss-making business, if the obelisk was really given to China, what would China give?

In any case, with the atmosphere of China, it will definitely not send anything less valuable than an obelisk.

In fact, China also has its own traditions, and the cultivation of a great country's style does not depend on overnight, and many small countries around it in ancient times relied on the rewards they received after offering to China.

Ye Kai said with a smile: "You can give the remaining obelisk to Huaxia." ”

There are two obelisks in Egypt, one of which was given to France, and if this last obelisk is given to China, then the meaning may be intriguing.

If there is such a thing, Huaxia will definitely accept it.

It is a big country and tolerant of all things, you Egypt wants to send me something to show goodwill, and I naturally have no reason to push it out...... But on this day, Ye Kai didn't know if he could see it.

He also hopes that the Egyptian obelisk will one day appear in a square in China.
