Chapter 4: Cairo Prison, O'Connor
"He owes you wages?"
Zhang Yang turned around and asked the beaten Chinese, he nodded, Zhang Yang turned around, his hand increased a little force, and Moldova wailed in pain.
"Ah, tap, tap, I'll give him ...... pay."
"Two months' wages, plus the protection money you blackmailed me, a total of 200 Egyptian pounds!"
The Chinese worker shouted angrily.
"Damn, it's only 180 Egyptian pounds...... oops, oh, stop, stop, it's 200 Egyptian pounds!"
Moldova took out a key from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Yang.
"All my money, locked in a box, here's the key."
Zhang Yang escorted Moldova to the place where the coins were kept, and pulled out a small box in the sack under the bed, which was heavy and seemed to contain a lot of good things.
As soon as the box was opened, there was a thick pile of Egyptian pounds inside, as well as many coins, no wonder it was so heavy. Zhang Yang flipped through a few times and asked the Chinese worker to order four Egyptian pounds with a face value of 50, and below the banknote, there was a mezzanine.
groped around the side of the box and found a switch, Zhang Yang pressed it, and the mezzanine made a soft sound, and Zhang Yang lifted the iron plate on the mezzanine, revealing a small pocket.
Moldova looked at the flamboyant movements and suddenly exclaimed.
"Damn, that's my money! You can't move ......."
"Now, it's my money."
He opened his pocket, but found that there were more than a dozen grains of glass inside, Zhang Yang picked it up, and his eyes lit up.
In the pocket, it turned out to be a diamond.
Moldova watched Zhang Yang take out the diamond, his face turned pale, and muttered.
"That's my money......"
Zhang Yang put the diamond back in his pocket and pretended to put it in his arms, but in fact put it in the storage space, and Zhang Yang also took out all the money unceremoniously.
He said to the Chinese worker, "Go and call all the people on board." β
There were a total of 4 Egyptian crew members on this ship, all of whom came over at this time, and Zhang Yang asked Moldova to exchange all the money owed to them, and then each gave an extra 50 Egyptian pounds, and the rest of the money, Zhang Yang deliberately received the rest of the money in front of everyone, all of which were received into the storage space.
Seeing so many Egyptian pounds disappear under everyone's gaze, everyone looked like they had seen a ghost, especially Moldova, who was so frightened that their legs trembled.
"Pull God on top, you you, this is ......."
"I am the messenger of the god Anubis, who has come to save you, and you must not tell what you have seen today, or I will take back the coins that Anubis gave you, and take back your lives."
Everyone nodded nervously, no one could explain how the coins disappeared, and the Egyptian sailors thought of the ancient legends in Egypt.
According to legend, in ancient Egypt, there were sacrifices around the pharaohs, who were able to master mysterious magic and be controlled by the high priest. Although it is just a legend, these Egyptians themselves are very superstitious, and they associate it with Zhang Yang, and suddenly Zhang Yang's body is covered with a layer of mystery.
Bluffing the crew, Zhang Yang grabbed Moldova and came outside the ship, Moldova looked at Zhang Yang's expression that seemed to be smiling, and said in horror.
"Great messenger of Anubis, you have taken my money...... Oh no, I'm giving you all my money, what more do you want to do? β
"Remember, if I ever run into you for withholding money from other people, or taking revenge on these people, I'll break your neck in the name of Anubis."
Zhang Yang said a word to Moldova, then lifted him up and, in a series of exclamations, threw him into the Nile.
This is the port, there are many ships around, and that Moldova is very watery, and quickly climbed into a ship, but did not dare to return to this ship.
He could ignore the flamboyant threats, but what he said in the name of the Egyptian god of death, Anubis, would be fulfilled, and he firmly believed in this, and completely cut off the idea of revenge against these crew members.
"Great Anubis God, please forgive me for my sins......."
Regardless of where Moldova prayed to death, Zhang Yang was purely just to scare him, but he still clearly underestimated the superstition of these people, and he turned around, and the Chinese worker and four Egyptian sailors stood respectfully behind him.
"Okay, he won't look for your business again in the future, he won't dare to go against the will of death."
He looked around and wanted to call the system, but found that there was no response, and then Xiaoya's voice came.
"From now on, the system will try to disappear in this shijie, and everything will be based on its own exploration."
Okay, Zhang Yang touched his nose, he was still a little unaccustomed, since the system didn't give him a direct task, then Zhang Yang did his own thing, and entered the mummy's shijie, the Sun Golden Sutra and the Undead Black Sutra, and he must go and snatch it.
If you want to get the scriptures, you need to enter the Tower of Hamna, the city of the dead, and the only person who knows the location of the Tower of Hamna is the male protagonist O'Connor, who can open the keys to the two books, in the hands of the heroine Evelyn. Taken together, in order to obtain these two scriptures, Zhang Yang needs to make contact with these two people.
Zhang Yang thought for a moment and asked the Chinese worker.
"What year is it?"
Strange as it was, the Chinese worker was respectful, and Zhang Yang's previous performance had convinced him.
"It's 1926 A.D., August 21."
"Where is this?"
"This is Cairo, the capital of Egypt, and the great river under our feet is the Nile."
In 1926, Zhang Yang thought about it, a few days before, Zhang Yang watched the mummy movie many times, and he still remembered the plot very clearly. O'Connor escaped from the Tower of Hamna in 1923, and three years later, in 1926, he was captured in Cairo prison, where the heroine, Evelyn, met him.
It's just unclear that O'Connor was arrested and imprisoned during that time period, and Evelyn worked at the Museum of Antiquities, and the information was relatively certain, so the first thing Zhang Yang had to do was to determine O'Connor's exact location and whether he was in Cairo Prison.
He asked the Chinese worker, "Do you know where the Cairo prison is?" β
"Yes."
The Chinese worker nodded. "But we need to get to the shore first, I can take you there, beware, the warden is simply too greedy."
Greedy?
Zhang Yang looked at him and smiled slightly, and ordered the ship to start docking.
"Greed? I'm afraid you're not greedy enough. β
The ship soon docked, and Zhang Yang, led by the Chinese worker, first went to a clothing store and bought a white suit for 150 Egyptian pounds. Then he came to a yellow masonry building, and in the doorway, a chubby bearded man with a gray turban was talking to a guard with a rifle.
The Chinese worker took Zhang Yang to hide at the mouth of the alley not far away, and he pointed to the bearded man and whispered.
"That's the warden of Cairo Prison, this guy can do anything as long as he has money."
Zhang Yang looked at the buildings around him, the yellow brick and stone buildings were high, and the only exit was guarded by guards, and it was difficult for the fugitives inside to escape, Zhang Yang smiled slightly.
"Haode, just bring it to me, you can go back. Rest assured, that black-hearted captain, he won't dare to deduct your wages anymore. β
After he left, Zhang Yang straightened his clothes, and then walked over with his eyes in front of him.

The bearded man stopped Zhang Yang. "What do you do?"
"I'm a scholar, come here to find one, ask him something."
The bearded fox looked Zhang Yang up and down suspiciously, and when he saw the suit on Zhang Yang's body, he saw at a glance that the price of the suit was not less than 150 Egyptian pounds. At this time, an ordinary dock worker's monthly salary was only 200 Egyptian pounds, and the person who could afford such clothes should not be a poor ghost.
The bearded man's eyes rolled, his face unchanged, and then said.
"Okay, follow me."
Following the warden, Zhang Yang entered the Cairo prison, where a guard was smashing a prisoner on the head with the butt of a gun, causing the prisoner to faint and then dragged to a prison.
The prison director deliberately passed by with Zhang Yang, secretly looked at Zhang Yang's expression, and found that there was no change, so he was a lot more cautious. In the past, when he passed by with some scholars, he would be frightened, and only some soldiers or thugs who had seen violent scenes, or powerful and wealthy, would not care.
This prison warden, with his own way of surviving and doing things, can do this position, in addition to the liliang of money, the amateur intelligent mind is related.
He led Zhang Yang to a row of fences, which were closed iron gates, and asked Zhang Yang.
"What's the name of the person you're looking for?"
"O'Connor."
The bearded warden gave Zhang Yang a strange look.
"That guy is a tough guy, I once asked him to go to jail, guess what he said?"
"Huh?"
"He said he was having fun, and he was a psychopath."
At this moment, the iron door was opened, and two Egyptian soldiers came out with a strong guy with a chain in his hand, and was beaten by the soldiers behind him.
"Be honest with me!"
O'Connor was unkempt, looking at the flamboyant man in a suit, and confirmed that he didn't know him.
"Who are you?"
Zhang Yang crouched down and said quietly in front of O'Connor.
"You don't know me, but I know you, mysterious survivor, O'Connor."
Hearing the three words of survivor, O'Connor, who was struggling, suddenly calmed down and stared at Zhang Yang.
"I have something to ask you." Zhang Yang looked at him.
"I can pay you for a box, or a city."
