Nine idlers

Port Said was originally just a small fishing village near the Mediterranean Sea with a population of only a thousand people, but since the British dug the Suez Canal, this small fishing village near the mouth of the canal has suddenly changed its appearance.In just a few years, it has turned from a barren land into a huge port city comparable to Alexandria. A large number of cargo ships going to and from east and west stop here, unload their cargo and then return to the Indian Ocean, while those cargoes are transported by other ships. Transshipment to various countries in the Mediterranean Sea.

It is this status as a transfer station that makes the port of Port Said very large, and countless cargo ships of all sizes enter and leave the port every day.It's just that it's not a place worth staying for those curious tourists. There are no long-standing historical sites, no glamorous and enchanting exotic customs, but only noisy, dirty and chaotic cities. Stinking Egyptians and hordes of bandits and thieves.This makes Port Said a strange kind of prosperity. Although people throughout the Mediterranean use and eat the spices and grains shipped from this port, they despise the chaos of this city in their hearts, and they are even willing to make this city A port city of vital importance to the countries of the Mediterranean was erased from memory.

When the Joan of Arc appeared near the waters of Port Said, it stopped for a while, and a small life-saving boat was put into the water. Apart from a few sailors, there were Xu Changqing and Beth in the small boat.When the cruise ship was still a day away from Port Said, Xu Changqing left the customs.This time, he retreated and practiced, and gained a lot. Not only did he get an extra five-element incarnation from the Yin God and War Ghost, but he also mastered the power method of the Atlanteans, which made him more sensitive to the energy of the five elements, especially the energy of the earth spirit. The mastery is more perfect.

When the ship entered the waters of the Red Sea in Egypt, Xu Changqing's eyes felt a vague power, which belonged to the power of the Egyptian gods at that time.This force is flickering, and it is constantly moving.It is impossible to find its specific location, and the last time this force appeared was near Port Said in Egypt, so he said that he would disembark at Port Said.

From the understanding of the power of the Atlanteans these days, and the power he felt when he left the port of Aden, Xu Changqing felt more and more that these so-called gods who survived from ancient times were not as easy to deal with as he imagined.For this reason, he left Su Chawei and others on the boat. As for Beth, she needs to be used as a guide. If necessary, he can use the blood of the Egyptian gods in her body to find the whereabouts of the survivors.For Xu Changqing's arrangement.Catherine and Shen Qingwen were very dissatisfied, but after half of their newly raised power was sealed again.This kind of dissatisfaction can only be swallowed in the stomach.

The boat docked at a small pier near the port area of ​​Port Said. After putting down Xu Changqing and Beth, the sailors rowed the boat away from Port Said quickly, as if there was some poisonous gas here that would suffocate them.It's just that the air in this small pier is indeed almost the same as poisonous gas.The small wharf is a local fish market. A large number of newly salvaged fish and some stinky fish that are too late to deal with are all piled up in this port. Most of the people who come here to buy fish are poor people in Port Said. Even Xu Changqing, who is invulnerable to all poisons, felt dizzy from the smell produced by mixing together the stench.

"Welcome to Egypt, my country." Beth was very happy to see Xu Changqing deflated. She raised her head and said to Xu Changqing like a master.

"Your country?" Xu Changqing smiled disdainfully and said, "Early after Octavian conquered Egypt. This is no longer your country."

After speaking, Xu Changqing led Beth into the bustling crowd.Under Xu Changqing's magic.The dense crowd was divided into two, leaving a path just enough for the two to pass through, and the thieves who were mixed in the crowd also avoided them for no reason.Although Xu Changqing came to Port Said for the first time, he found a suitable path in the maze-like alleys as easily as an old Port Said man.

Soon the two came to a manor located on the edge of the city west of Port Said. The style of this manor was no different from that of an ordinary Muslim manor, except that there were different carvings on the corners of the manor and in some invisible places. There are fewer reliefs of ancient Egyptian gods, and more atmosphere of ancient Egypt.

It was in this manor before that the power of the Egyptian gods detected by the eyes of the gods appeared. Now that Xu Changqing is standing at the gate of this manor, he can still feel the remaining traces of power.Not only Xu Changqing felt it, even Beth felt the power here.His face suddenly became a lot uglier.At the same time, he also looked at Xu Changqing suspiciously, obviously puzzled that Xu Changqing could find this place.

Xu Changqing had no intention of calling the door.He directly took Beth's hand, passed through the wall, and entered the manor.At this moment, his divine eye has been slightly opened, and the pointer inside guides him to find the remains of the Egyptian gods hidden in the manor.The servants in the manor obviously did not expect someone to barge in like this. They all thought that the oriental man and the woman in black yarn walking on the corridor in front of them were friends of the owner of the manor, so they retreated to both sides and saluted him.

The two stopped in front of a small garden door full of ancient Egyptian decorations and statues in the middle of the manor.At this moment, Xu Changqing felt that the whole garden was surrounded by an imperceptible force, and the dozens of baboon stone sculptures around the garden were the center of this force, and when he approached this small garden, the glasses of those stone sculptures seemed to be able to Turned to stare at him as if moving.

Xu Changqing didn't pay much attention to this protective power at all, because this power came from the earth, and for him who could almost completely control the spirit energy of heaven, earth and earth, it was easy to crack this protective power.I saw him stretch out his hand, gently press the palm of his hand on the edge of the surface of this force, and then secretly use the method he obtained from the crystal skull.A burst of yellow light immediately shone around the garden, followed by patterns like water waves, and finally his palm seemed to have some kind of powerful suction, pulling the entire light into his body.After losing this power, cracks appeared in the surrounding stone carvings immediately, and the vitality also disappeared, turning into ordinary stone carvings.

Xu Changqing's deconstruction of the garden's protective power quickly alarmed the people living in the garden, and they rushed out to check what happened.When this fat, bald Egyptian rushed to the door, he saw Xu Changqing with a puzzled expression on his face, but when he saw Beth who had already lifted the veil, he showed a surprised expression, saying: "Beth Goddess, why are you here?"

Beth showed an ugly smile on her face and said, "Long time no see! Toth, my friend."
