"I'll get it for you. ”

Seeing that Beauty's face was a little stiff, O'Connor took the initiative to lift the suitcase in her hand and distract her. Then he went up the boarding ladder first. This guy who is sometimes playful, sometimes serious, sometimes innocent, sometimes mature, the beauty looks at his departing back, with curiosity and exploration in her eyes.

On the one hand, the majestic status of Officer O'Connor is a fantasy color with his legendary experience of escaping death, and on the other hand, he always has an innocent smile like a big boy, but he can always take care of the thoughts of others gently, forming a strong contrast. A beautiful woman's heart has deeply imprinted the shadow of O'Connor.

However, at this time, the man in the suit didn't think so, and casually said such a bluffing thing, scaring his unworldly sister a lot, and he looked at the back of O'Connor on the boat at this time, but with scrutinizing eyes.

"You're right, lewd, rude, scoundrel, unlikable. He judged.

Beauty looked at the man in the suit, kept smiling, and did not refute, she hid her true thoughts deeply, and only expressed her dissatisfaction with her eyes, although the man in the suit did not perceive this.

"Good morning, everyone!"

There was a greeting beside her, and the beauty turned her head and saw the comer, with a gloomy face.

"Oh my God, what are you doing?" she grumbled.

I remember everything that happened vividly.

Her unemployed brother was accustomed to petty theft, and thanks to the generous financial support of her late parents for the Cairo Museum of Antiquities, she was able to get a job as a librarian there to support the siblings' daily living expenses, although her original intention to go there was due to her passion for studying ancient Egyptian history, her mother's Egyptian ancestry, and her parents, who were explorers.

The other day, her brother stole a little money and got drunk again as usual. Unexpectedly, he was drunk and stealing this time, and wanted to make up a lie as usual, and brought a little treasure to the beauty that he said was a gift from a friend, but in fact he stole it himself, but he who had always been complained by her about giving away some useless and worthless things, actually took out a real treasure for the first time, which was a strange treasure box from O'Connor, who was also drunk, with a map and a treasure map, leading to the burial place of several generations of extremely wealthy pharaohs, the legendary city of the dead, and the tower of Hamna, which is also the city of treasures。

It is a pity that, seemingly unintentionally, the director of the Cairo Museum of Antiquities, who strongly objected to Beauty's visit to the lost city to explore ancient civilizations, and her brother's search for treasure there, actually placed it next to the lamp when he checked the map. Coincidentally, after Beauty and her brother tried their best to save it, the information about the location of the city on the map had been burned.

As a result, the two had to find the previous owner of the treasure box - because he was drunk and had a fight with someone, he was imprisoned, and because of his unruly words and deeds, including beating a man in a suit, forcibly kissing a beautiful woman, and rebelling against the jailer, these behaviors angered the bad character of the prison warden, O'Connor, who was about to be hanged.

O'Connor knew the location of Hamnata because he had been there himself, and although he found nothing there, he suffered a bitter defeat.

So, before the execution, in order to save O'Connor, a living map, Beauty made a deal with the prison warden. The ransom was raised from 100 pounds to 500 pounds, and the cunning prison warden was still not satisfied, and wanted to touch the body of the beauty. As a result, he put his hand on the lap of the beauty, and was slapped away by the angry latter, and was ridiculed by a bunch of prisoners who watched the show, and in shame, he directly ordered the execution. Eventually, in desperation, the beauty told her about Hamnata and promised to share the warden with twenty-fifty percent of the proceeds of the expedition, which saved O'Connor's life.

In this way, how could she not hate the warden, this fat guy who came to her unexpectedly, and greeted the two of them without smiling.

"I'm here to protect my investment, thank you for your concern. ”

The warden didn't care about the beauty's attitude, he was eager for gold, silver and jewelry, and he was afraid that the beauty would make a blank check, so he replied in a weird way, and went up the boarding ladder one step ahead of the two.

The brother and sister sighed at the same time, facing the warden who lived the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, they were bored, and finally had to helplessly watch him get on the boat. This ugly face that they couldn't avoid in the next few days, the two had to pinch their noses and admit this nasty reality.

Seeing the warden's back disappear from view, the two of them took a step and walked up the boarding stairs.

"Whew!"

The steamer whistled again, and it was about to set sail.

At this time, a pair of feet stepped on the place where the two had been standing. This is a young man dressed in a simple shirt and ordinary trousers, and his face is a combination of Eastern and Western advantages, and he is a typical mixed-race gene. At this moment, he was holding a local newspaper and looking at the header, where the words "1923" were clearly visible.

"Egypt in 1923 was in the heyday of modern conservation archaeological excavations, led by archaeological teams from its colonial overlords, European and American countries. The young man looked with interest at the beauty and the man in the suit who were boarding the ship, "Evelyn Jonathan and that O'Connor." Looks like I'm in the world of the movie "The Mummy"!"

At the end of the ship's side, several boatmen had already arrived, about to put away the boarding ladder.

"Is there anyone else who hasn't come up?" shouted one of them toward the shore.

"I'm sorry to wait, I'm not on the boat yet!" the young man smiled and beckoned.

......

On a moonlit night, on the Nile, in front of a steamer, several small boats rowed silently, and on them sat men in black with painted faces and swords. One of them places a curved saw blade on the mechanism in his right hand. The moonlight shone down, reflecting a cold light from the curved blade.

At the same time, on the brightly lit steamer, the crisp and melodious piano sound was mixed with the chaotic human voices, and the young man sitting in the corner of the deck subconsciously squinted. Sensing the cold light that was invisible to ordinary people, he remained silent and continued to talk with strangers at the same table with a smile on his face.

"Sir, you don't seem to have bought a ferry ticket yet. ”

A boatman checking in came to the young man's side. His face was not good, and the people around him looked even more strange when they heard it.

"Can I make up the ticket?"

The young man was smiling and indifferent, unaffected by his surroundings. The boatman was not polite, and said in his heart that this young man could not evade the ticket, and he would have to slap his swollen face and become fat at this time, how could he give the young man a good face when he was holding back the fire in his belly, and sneered when he heard this.

"If you can afford it, pay it. ”

The implication could not be more obvious, and the laughter had already begun to emerge around them. The young man smiled freely, raised his hand and threw out a piece of gold, which was caught by the bright-eyed boatman. I bit it, and a tooth mark appeared on it.

"It's true!" said the boatman, in amazement.

The young man shook his hand: "You don't need to look for more, let's get busy." ”

"Eh, good, good!"

The boatman smirked, nodded and walked away, just like the two of them when they came. On the way back, the boatman stroked the thumb-sized gold nugget in his hand, snickering, and couldn't put it down, he had decided to hide the fare evasion from the ship's boss. At this moment, all the people around who looked at the young man began to have their eyes lit up.

"I can't see it, brother, it's so deeply hidden! I have a way to tell my brothers, where to get the gold? You are the boss, and you will make a fortune with the big guys!"

A person at the same table, when he talked about how chic his life was, he still had a hearty posture of spending money, but when he spoke to the young man again, he behaved with a thief's eyebrows, poked his head and suppressed his voice so that only the people at the same table could hear it. The young man smiled at the eager look of the man, and the enthusiasm of the others at the table who were being cheered upon, but did not speak.

"Understood, it seems that this financial road is not very wide!" He saw that the young man did not answer, sneered, and took out a deck of cards, "Then how about playing two casually?

Seeing the young man's generous move, this man thought that he had figured out his psychology of showing off his wealth, thinking that he was self-aggrandizing, so he thought of such a plan, and was secretly waiting for the young man to take the bait, and then use his own special cheat cards to get extra money from his suit. Thinking of this, the man glanced at the others at the table. At this time, they understood it, and they all followed suit.

However, to their disappointment, the young man not only did not respond, but also took out a book from behind him with his back and read it leisurely. The others looked at each other, and when they saw that the young man was unmoved, they stopped thinking for the time being. It's just that the eyes at the same table are constantly back and forth, and it is obvious that they still have no thoughts, and even from the inadvertent glances of some people, it can be seen that they even want to make their "business" bigger.

All this, young people see in their eyes, but it is not broken from beginning to end.

"O'Connor, we owe a partner. ”

Jonathan's voice rang out at a card table in the distance, and the young man glanced up as if inadvertently. There, the man Jonathan called O'Connor had just stepped out of the cabin door. The young man retracted his eyes to the book in front of him, and one of his ears was still there.
