However, to my surprise, although Patriarch Feisha ordered the competition, what he said surprised me greatly.He said very solemnly: the sky is about to dawn, the almighty sun is about to rise, and when the first ray of sunlight shines into the ancient city, the two of you can start the competition, may the true god Allah protect you! When the first ray of sunlight shines into the ancient city, I can do it. I almost shouted out loud. Yupudo lives in this ancient city. It is easier for him to know when the sun will shine on the ancient city. The ancient city, but I can only wait nervously. Yupudo's knife is so fast, as long as I give him half a second to take the lead, I will be in danger!

I turned my head slightly and looked at Aibo, only to see Aibo's complexion was grayer than the stones under the platform.I immediately turned my head again, and at that moment, I had already thought of a countermeasure.I looked at the majestic Yupudo without blinking, but my eyes did not stop on his face, but on his chest. The clothes on his chest were cut into a circle by me, and his chest was ridiculously exposed. The more I looked at him, the more disturbed he seemed, which I could see in his eyes. In less than ten minutes, the tip of his scimitar was even shaking slightly, it seemed that he was even more disturbed.Because at this time, thousands of pairs of eyes may also be staring at his ridiculous chest.

Of course, people can also know that the hair on my head has been removed, which is a masterpiece of Yupdo, but they will not laugh at me, because I am a foreigner, and Yupdo is Yupdo. I raised my head and looked at Yupuduo, only to see his face trembling, and the expression in his eyes was very angry. He is angry!This is exactly what I want to achieve. Because in a fast attack, if you are angry, you will often make the worst decision. I waited for Uputo to attack me first. The sky is slowly getting brighter, and the sun may have risen, but its light has not yet reached the ancient city. Although I have made Yupuduo angry, the impression given to me by Yupuduo's sharp knife still makes me unable to understand. very optimistic.

I waited almost with bated breath. Suddenly, I saw a long-suppressed look on Yu Pudo's face, and he would be able to get vent.I knew immediately that the first ray of sunlight was about to hit the ancient city.I was short in stature immediately, and at this moment, Uputo's scimitar, facing the first sunlight that shot into the city, slashed down on my shoulder like a bolt of lightning! When I was short in stature, I had already made up my mind to back away. With a flash of the knife, I had already fled out, but Yupuduo's knife still cut my sleeves. As soon as I retreated, Yupudo immediately jumped and forced me to come over.The speed with which he came was really beyond my expectation, and his saber technique was definitely not as imprecise as I had imagined in advance.

In the next five minutes, I can say without exaggeration that it was the closest to death in my life. The gloomy knife light kept shining and whistling around me, as if the heavens were furious and felt that I was not needed, and sent out countless lightning bolts to hit me. I dodged as much as I could, I jumped, flashed, rolled, and turned over, but after five minutes, there were many bloodstains on my body, and the clothes on my body were no longer clothes. Then, I started to counterattack. The scimitar and the machete clashed with each other, making a thrilling clang sound, and the breath of the bystanders became more tense. I began to hear Yupudo's breathing. Five minutes after I started to counterattack, Yupudo had gradually He lost his advantage, and in his eagerness to win, he started making mistakes.

When I swung the knife horizontally and sliced ​​towards his waist, his body suddenly fell short, almost squatting on the ground.My knife slashed past his head. If Yupuduo is not eager to win, he should retreat quickly after avoiding my knife, and then attack after judging the situation. Perhaps he should not use this method to attack me at all, but at this time, he Dodging the knife, the scimitar in my hand suddenly stabbed towards my chest! I can't help but admit that this is a brilliant and daring strike, but I've been waiting for this opportunity for a long time! Just as he was stabbing me from bottom to top with a knife, I jumped up suddenly, jumped over his head, and got behind him.

You Pudo must have wanted to end the fight with his knife, so he used the knife with great force, and he stood up, and when I jumped up, his knife had already pierced the air, and I couldn't hold it back for a while. Momentum, the whole person rushed forward. I had expected such a situation to happen, I jumped behind him, withdrew my elbows, and the handle of the knife had already hit Uputo's vest. Yupudo made a sound like howling a wild animal, and took another step forward. But he is still worthy of being a first-rate swordsman. When he staggered forward and fell forward, he turned around quickly and slashed at me with his backhand!

It's just that I was already one step ahead of him, the knife I struck at him had already arrived, the back of the knife hit the back of his hand, causing him to loosen his five fingers, the backhand and his knife were only cut halfway, the knife Then I left my hand, and I quickly retracted my hand, causing my knife to collide with his knife, making a clang, but I let go, letting my knife and his knife fall to the ground together. My movements were very fast, and Yupudo's movements were not slow either. From the eyes of others, it was as if our scimitars collided, and everyone's knives fell to the ground together.

But Yupuduo knew it, he stood there blankly, his face extremely ugly. I quickly shouted: Ai Bo, look, I can even draw with this first-class Arab swordsman! Yupudo's body trembled, and he looked at me with a puzzled expression.I smiled at him: We are both great swordsmen, aren't we?Perhaps the true god Allah wants two great swordsmen to exist in the world at the same time, so our swords collided and fell to the ground together! Yupu opened his arms and was speechless for a while, only his lips were trembling. When I saw him like this, I knew he had understood my intentions.I looked at him with a smile, and saw that his lips trembled for a while before he uttered four words: Allah, God!

Then, he rushed towards me and hugged me with his long and powerful arms, and I hugged him too. We slapped each other's backs, and at this moment, the audience around suddenly burst out like thunder. The cheers were simply earth-shattering.I believe that if the Egyptian government has patrols within 30 miles, then they will be able to discover the settlements of this ethnic group! You Pudo and I separated. Yu Pudo picked up his scimitar and handed it to me. I also picked up my scimitar and handed it to him. It took less than half an hour for me to fight with Uputo, but at this time the sun had already shone on every corner of this forgotten ancient city.

People were jumping and shouting like crazy.Then, Patriarch Feisha walked towards us slowly.When Patriarch Feisha came to me and Uputo, the voices suddenly fell silent again. Patriarch Feisha turned to me, froze for a moment, and made a very strange gesture towards me, but I immediately realized that it was Patriarch Feisha saluting to me! Human emotions are a very strange thing.Because I refused to bow to Patriarch Feisha, I took a big risk with Updobi.But at this moment, I immediately bowed to Patriarch Feisha and returned the salute to him. After I straightened up, Patriarch Feisha put his hand on my shoulder and said in a very low voice: Actually, you don't have to return the courtesy.I laughed and said: Do you think I'm being impolite? Fraser was stunned for a moment: I know Chinese from you.I said: I also know Arabs on your body.I believe Patriarch Feisha himself is also an outstanding swordsman. He must have seen that the contest between me and Yuputo was not a tie, but I had already won. So, he saluted me.He is the head of the clan, and all the people under his rule are here, but he saluted me without hesitation, which is a very rare thing.This shows that their entire nation is a very noble nation. Because if his character is despicable, he will definitely order the swordsmen to besiege me. If Patriarch Feisha gives such an order, I will never escape. Aibo rushed over, and the two of us hugged for a while. Patriarch Feisha took me with one hand and Yupuduo with the other, and they walked forward together. All the people cheered like thunder again, and we arrived. After the temple, the cheers continued. Patriarch Feisha and we sat down together, and his waiter brought the poor earthen wine, but it was placed in the most exquisite ancient Egyptian wine vessel. I gulped down that kind of bad wine, which was actually difficult to drink. Chief Feisha asked me: Of course you didn't come here for travel, so what was that for? I wipe the wine off my lips: we've come to find a lost pyramid. When Patriarch Feisha heard this, his hands trembled, and the wine in his hands even spilled out. I froze for a moment: What, is there something wrong? Fei Sha hurriedly said: Nothing, where is the pyramid you mentioned? I have seen that Patriarch Feisha's heart is hiding something from me, so I looked directly at him: It's near here, can you tell me where the pyramid I'm looking for is? His body shook again, and the wine spilled out of the glass again.He suddenly laughed, that forced dry laugh, of course, to cover up his embarrassment. He laughed for a long time before saying: This is interesting, I never know what kind of pyramids exist near here. Originally, I was not sure whether Patriarch Feisha knew the location of my pyramid, because this pyramid had disappeared from the ground for many years, and it might be buried under extremely deep sand. But after hearing Patriarch Feisha's clumsy denial, I feel that he knows, at least he has a concept, and he is definitely not ignorant as he said. I stared at him, but he turned his head away, not daring to look at me. When I was about to say something more, Ai Bo suddenly sighed: "Old friend Fei Sha, you have changed." Patriarch Feisha's face immediately turned red: Aibo, what do you mean by that? Ai Bo shook his head: Old friend, you understand. The look on Feisha's face was very excited, and he stood up abruptly: Aibo, did I tell him what I know regardless of the fate of the whole clan, you say. Aibo is very calm: you can tell him, you can't tell, it's not that you don't know. Feisha took a breath, turned his head to look at me, and said, "Okay, let me tell you, I know where the pyramid you're looking for is, but I can't tell you, even though you are someone I respect very much." people. I pretended not to care and smiled, as if I wasn't going to continue asking, but in my heart, I was very happy. Now that I have a clue, how can I give up the pursuit?I said: why, can you tell me? Patriarch Feisha said: Yes, this pyramid protects the safety of our entire clan and must not be disturbed by outsiders. I almost jumped up in anger. It turned out that Patriarch Feisha did it for the reason of superstition. This is naturally the most ignorant reason, but it is also the most stubborn reason. I pretended to smile again, and said: That’s how it is. You said that no outsiders are allowed to disturb you. Do you mean that this pyramid is within the reach of outsiders? Patriarch Feisha raised his head and said: All I can say is that, I have nothing else to say. I stood up: it seems that your patron saints don't take much care of your people, because you are poor, poor, and almost waiting to die in this ancient city! Patriarch Feisha seemed to be angry, but he couldn't, because what I said was the truth, he just said: at least, the Egyptian government's army didn't find us, so we can survive. I tested him and said: Have you ever thought that you can make peace with the government? Feisha sighed.Aibo said on behalf of him: There is no way, the current government has obtained a wrong information from somewhere, insisting that the deposed king has a batch of important treasures, which fell into his hands.The current government's pursuit of him is not for political reasons, because everyone knows that the deposed king will never make a comeback. After I heard it, I was very happy, because it coincided with my original plan!I hurriedly said: I have a way to make you meet the requirements of the Egyptian government, then you and your people don't have to be stuck in this ancient city anymore! Feisha looked at me and said nothing.Aibo waved his hand and said: Wesley, there is nothing you can do. What the Egyptian government wants from him is a batch of treasures of astonishing value. I nodded and said: I know, I can provide a clue to the treasure, and ask Patriarch Feisha to give this clue to the Egyptian government in exchange for the freedom of their entire nation. Feisha was still looking at me with an unbelievable look on his face.I continued: Those are twelve extremely rough hand-cut diamonds, each about 300 carats.Ai Bo swayed and stood up: You are dreaming, you are dreaming!Fei Shadao: Why don't you take it yourself? I shrugged my shoulders and said: There is no one who does not love money, because money can almost give a person everything he needs.However, I still don't understand the difference between a person who has 10 million and 10 million. There is always a limit to one's enjoyment.Although I don't have ten million, my life is very good, and I have everything I want. Those twelve diamonds are just twelve stones that can reflect light to me. Patriarch Feisha murmured: With such a treasure, my nation can indeed be free. I continued: Under the ruins of a temple, there are twelve diamonds. You just need to prove this to the Egyptian government, don't you? Patriarch Fei Sha said: Yes, that way, we can find an oasis and live beside the oasis, instead of drawing mud-like well water from the ground more than ten feet deep here. I smiled: Old friend Feisha, do you believe my words? Fraser laughed: Old friend Wesley, why should I doubt what a person like you said?After you come back from that pyramid, I will go to Cairo with you. The joy in my heart is really indescribable, but I don't let my joy show too much, because it will make me look like I am planning everything for myself. I just asked in passing: Isn't the pyramid buried under the sand? Patriarch Feisha said: Of course it was buried under the sand, or else it would have been discovered long ago. However, this ancient city and that pyramid seem to be related, because there is a tunnel from the ancient city: it can lead to Inside of that pyramid. I can't help but lean forward: really? Feisha nodded and said: I walked through that tunnel, but only halfway through, I dare not go any further, but from the ancient text carved on the stones of the tunnel, I know it leads to a pyramid .Don't think that I'm just a patriarch of a backward nation. I'm also an authority on the study of ancient Egyptian history and a Ph.D. in ethnology. I shrugged: Dude, did I ever say you were illiterate? Feisha laughed loudly: Last time I entered the tunnel alone, so I returned halfway. This time we went together, I think we can go directly to the inside of the pyramid. I said: Entering the inside of the pyramid is a very dangerous thing. Ancient spells may kill people inexplicably. The air that has been blocked in the tower for thousands of years may have become the most poisonous gas. Feisha , why do you take the risk? Patriarch Feisha said: Well, I don't have to go, but you don't have anyone to lead the way. Ai Bogao shouted: "Ah, you are lying!"
