Chapter 1047 (1/2)

Cairo, one of the oldest cities in human history, is a city with a history of 5000 years, which is longer than the civilization history of most races in the world. The regular flooding of the Nile has created the ancient civilization of ancient Egypt and shaped the ancient city along the Nile.

The unique dry climate preserves the ancient ruins of the city.

The chaotic roads and buildings in the city stand here together with the pyramids outside the city. The Old Egyptians have destroyed their species. The new owners in this ancient land are the Arabs who hold the Koran and pout their hips. The Egyptian gods have become history together with the pyramids.

The culture of this city is faulted. This ancient civilization and history have nothing to do with its new owner. Not every civilization is as prosperous and spreading as the Chinese civilization!

Although Egypt outside the pyramid area is full of noise, dirt and backwardness, just like a chaotic huge construction site, there are uncompleted residential buildings everywhere. People here believe that the prosperity of the family will constantly put forward new requirements for the family's living space, and Egypt's unique laws prevent most Egyptians from capping their houses.

They will build one or more floors upstairs after the next generation is born... In Egypt, building houses is always the present progressive tense.

But this is Cairo, where rich people all over Africa want to settle.

The rich settled in the naris city next to the airport, while the poor

These dilapidated, dubious architectural qualifications, not to mention the design of uncompleted residential buildings, are not the place where the poorest people in Egypt live.

The real poor can only live in the city of the dead - a place comparable to the slums of Brazil and Mumbai. It is the dirtiest and worst area in Egypt. It is a forbidden place. It is the shadow under the sunshine of Cairo, which condenses the darkest and chaotic side of the city.

The city of the dead - not an exaggerated decoration, but a real city belonging to the dead.

This is the cemetery in Cairo. Although modern Egyptians are Arab, they are inevitably influenced by ancient Egyptian religion here. Like ancient Egyptians and Chinese people in the Western Han Dynasty, they have the tradition that death is like life. They believe that the dead people live underground as before.

Therefore, the ancient Egyptians created pyramids. In the Han Dynasty, the Chinese buried their daily necessities and built huge tombs.

Modern Egyptians bury the dead in underground tombs, but build magnificent buildings like living quarters on the tombs.

Wealthy families hire tomb keepers to live in these buildings and guard the souls of the dead - another custom very similar to that in ancient China, but no family president prospers. Therefore, uninvited tramps live inside and live together with tomb keepers. This is the city of the dead in Cairo!

Strange looked at the mausoleum where the living and the dead lived together. Chen ang asked him, ”have you never been here before?”

Strange shook his head and said, ”I have come to Cairo to attend academic conferences before...”

”But they all live in magnificent hotels?” Chen ang asked, ”in fact, even tourists will not come here. Although this is the real feature of Cairo, it is more culturally representative than the pyramids. Think about it, a modern pyramid, where the living and the dead live together, mixed with religion, traditional culture, the persistent diseases of modern cities and the shadow of the light of the country.”

”But just as slums are also Rio characteristics, tourists would rather dance Samba than set foot in it. After all, gangs are not particular about it. This is also the abandoned place of the city.”

”The rulers of the slums are gangs!” strange said seriously. ”Who is the ruler here?”

”More dangerous existence!” Chen ang sighed.

”Even gangs don't want to live in such an unlucky place. Except for those who really have nothing, who want to live with the dead, the * * * religion regards it as filthy. Only those madmen of voodoo and Shaman wizards are happy to occupy here. Those voodoo wizards have great influence in Africa. Even if Egypt is a * * * country, they are infiltrated by voodoo. Here is The paradise of voodoo wizards. They believe that living on the edge of life and death can communicate the souls of the dead and make their mana more powerful. ”

”And there are rich treasures buried underground!”
