Walking out of the small hotel, the fog and cold air enveloped me, and my whole body began to shrink.

I opened the door, and before I could say hello to Syvi, something hard pressed against my waist. A hoarse voice whispered: "Friend, cooperate, we just need money, we don't want to die." ”

Sylvie smiled wryly at me, and the two men in the back seat sat up straight, each holding a silent pistol in their hands, pointing at us.

I got into the car, and the man who forced me to squeeze in through the back door, and put the muzzle of the gun on the back of my head: "Give me money, watches, and credit cards, friend, you are lucky to meet us, otherwise, you will make your head bloom tonight." ”

Judging from the way he wields a gun, he is just a crappy third-rate underworld minion, and if he dares to grab my head, he simply doesn't know how to die. I've already invited them to drink in the hotel just now, and now I'm going to have to do it again.

"And you, take the money! Get the money!" the man saw that I had been silent, thinking that I had yielded, and turned his gun and struck Syvi on the shoulder.

Xiwei screamed "oops", she had a serious wound on her shoulder, and she couldn't withstand the touch at all.

The man behind him laughed maliciously: "Chinese chicks are squeamish, like Sarah, no matter how they rub it, they don't say anything, hehehehehe......"

I suppressed my anger and stared at him in the rearview mirror: "Friend, don't touch her, there is something to say." ”

The man's eyes narrowed into a line with a smile, and he stretched out his other hand in a daze, touching Xiwei's cheek: "It's easy to say, I'll touch it, you-ah......"

Suddenly, he screamed like a pig, and his body immediately stiffened. My right palm struck him in the left shoulder with unmistakable accuracy, causing him to lose consciousness and tilt his neck to one side in a daze. The other two were just about to come to the rescue, and the four fingers of my left palm stood together like a sword, and instantly poked at their Adam's apple, and the two of them passed out after only a second apart.

"How are you?" I said, turning to Shevie with concern.

With tears in her eyes, she struggled to raise her right arm: "Here...... Shot. ”

I turned on the roof lights, and sure enough, her clothes were torn by bullets, and blood soaked out and dripping silently.

"As soon as they got into the car, they moved their hands and feet, and I struggled desperately, and one of them went off with a pistol and hit me in the arm. It's good you got back, otherwise—" She clutched her collar aggrievedly, finally unable to contain her tears and sliding down.

I didn't expect this to happen after only ten minutes of delay in the small hotel, and I really regretted it: "I'm sorry, I'll take you to the hospital to bandage, let's go back to the city first." ”

Xiwei shook her head vigorously and laboriously took out two first-aid kits from her pocket: "Just help me bandage it, I'll be fine." Let's go to the Sphinx first, and then to the hospital when we get back. I know that you have always remembered Miss Leng in your heart, don't delay another night because of me. ”

If it was me who was injured, of course I could have bandaged it urgently and continued on the road, but now it was Xiwei who made me hesitate a little. But fortunately, the bullet only grazed the flesh on the inside of Xiwei's elbow, and did not hurt the muscles and bones, and the bleeding quickly stopped.

I started the car and continued towards the Sphinx. Shelvie is right, in a few more hours, the day will run out, and the difficulty of retrieving Leng Xin will increase again. In the case that Xiwei's injuries are not life-threatening, no matter whether the kind of sound that Xiliang repeated will appear or not, I will try it first.

We were the only ones left in the empty desert, the searchlights on the roof splitting through the fog like lightsabers.

"Mr. Chen, didn't you have any premonitions before Miss Leng's disappearance?" Xiwei's mood calmed down and she no longer frowned.

I shook my head: "No, not at all." ”

Xiwei sighed: "Psychologists say that there is some kind of telepathy between two people who truly love each other, and if one party is in trouble, the other party will perceive it first. And, in your case, if Miss Leng is trapped somewhere, you will feel it, even if it is only a vague consciousness. You really don't?"

I stared at a black-necked snake on the road ahead of me that had fled in panic, and tapped the steering wheel: "Really." The horn was inadvertently touched, and it made two crisp sounds, and the sound suddenly sounded, but then it was swallowed up by the endless sea of sand.

"That's weird. Sylvester shrunk back in her seat, smiling wryly silently.

I learned about the death of the team from the Cairo police on the phone, and then rushed to the desert without stopping, whether I slept or rested, and my mind was always thinking about Leng Xin, but I didn't feel her whereabouts at all.

Soon, the spire of the pyramid rising into the sky came into view, and in a few minutes, the shadow of the Sphinx also appeared.

Xi Wei's shoulders suddenly trembled: "Mr. Chen, you mean that the melody I hummed is from-"

I stopped her with my eyes, then pulled over and dragged all three people out of the back seat. The air became dry and cold, and the three of them soon woke up from freezing, staring at me stupidly, not daring to make a sound, let alone move.

"You can go, go as fast as you can, as far as possible, and never before my eyes, or else—" I flashed the two guns in my left hand and threw them into the sky, the guns in my right firing continuously, hitting the target with precision, and firing them high again, falling far into the sand.

"It's easy to take your life, you know?" I dragged the man who took the lead, put the gun in his arms, and then gently slapped him twice in the face, and lifted his chin hard to make him look at me, "Remember the way I look, the next time you make trouble, your eyes will be a little brighter, do you understand?"

These scoundrels in the market want martial arts without martial arts, marksmanship without marksmanship, wisdom without wisdom, they can only be the horses of the big gang, and killing them will only dirty my hands.

"Yes, yes, I understand, I understand, thank you, Boss, thank you Boss for saving our lives......" His attitude became supple, like a leper dog with a broken backbone.

"Alright, go ahead. I clapped my palms and slowly stepped back.

Now, the gun is on his body, and if this man is an unruly bandit, he will definitely draw a gun and attack, and the only end will be to die by my sword. For some reason, when he raised a gun in the car and knocked on Xiwei's shoulder, the anger in my heart suddenly had a desire to vent. She is such a delicate girl, every time others touch her, I can't help but feel distressed, including two bullet scratches in a row, all in my eyes and in my heart.

The three men looked at each other, then jumped up in unison, and desperately turned and ran in the direction of Cairo City, like three frightened rabbits.

I sighed, glad they had made the wisest choice and avoided a bloody killing.

"Mr. Chen, let's go over now? Actually, I'm quite familiar with the statue, whether it's the size or the appearance information, I've read it well. Sylvie poked her head out of the car window and looked at the three scoundrels who were speeding away.

I got back in the car and restarted the engine.

"Don't affect my mood, the big picture matters. In the city of Cairo, there are so many such scoundrels that it is not worth being angry with such people. Her eyes looked away, but the words were directed towards me.

"How so? I just put up with them for too long, and I wanted to make a move in the small hotel, but there was no trigger for an outbreak. By the way, have you ever heard of the person 'Age', it should be a-"

Before I could finish speaking, she quickly answered: "Copper engraving artist Age, of course I know, it's on the street of wandering artists in the East End." What's wrong?' "It seems that Aggie is still a well-known figure in Cairo City, so he doesn't have to bother asking around.

"According to some people, he has a copper engraving depicting the 'Sea of Gold' in his hand, and I wanted to take a look at it, maybe it will help you find Leng Xin. I felt that my words were tactful enough to try not to attract Sylvie's attention, and that Sen and Sarah's words were not entirely credible.

Xi Wei's eyes were immediately full of suspicion: "Mr. Chen, Ai Ji did 'once' own the painting, please note that it was 'once' owned, along with six golden shells and nine golden crabs. However, all of these things now belonged to Mrs. Charlotte, who, when Age was at his most destitute, sold all the valuable things around him, and Madame Charlotte generously gave him a large sum of money and took everything in his workshop. If you want to see it, I'm afraid you'll have to work until Mrs. Charlotte, which is a bit of a problem. ”
