It can be said that the hospitable elders' family treats Chen Rui and his party as guests.

You know, because the Bedouins live in the desert and live a nomadic life, they are barren, lack food, and use only meat and coffee.

For festivals or entertaining guests.

Chen Rui thanked the elders and the hospitable hostess with Islamic etiquette.

Li Hao and four others also learned from Chen Rui, thanking the elders and the hospitable hostess with Islamic etiquette.

The five picked up camel meat and began to eat.

The taste of camel meat ... how to say it is a bit unpalatable, because camel meat has been lacking for a long time, the meat is too dry and too hard, the muscle texture is coarse, the muscle contains high salt, and it has a salty feeling.

Chen Rui did not eat a few pieces of camel meat.

Li Manhao and the other four were just like Chen Rui. After eating a few pieces, they did not eat.

However, the pancakes taste good, eaten with camel milk, don't have a desert flavor.

While eating pancakes, Chen Rui eyed the furnishings in the room.

Some information about the Bedouins that had been consulted before coming to Egypt came to mind.

There are tens of thousands of Bedouins in Egypt.

The Egyptian government and government also tried to 'pull' them into modern city life, but they were "rejected" by most Bedouins. They still chose a free and unrestrained nomadic life.

The Bedouins do not recognize any laws other than the tribal tradition, except for the chiefs of the tribe, they do not obey any political power and do not recognize any political system.

In fact, this part of the Bedouin people has no identity. Although they live in Egypt, they are not Egyptian in name. It is not under the jurisdiction of the Egyptian government and government, and Egyptian law does not control them. What can get them is the tribal tradition, the habits of their predecessors, and the teachings of Islam.

Although the Bedouins here choose unrestrained nomadic life.

But obviously. The Bedouins here still suffer from some modern influences.

Although this tribe has no water or electricity, Chen Rui can see some modern daily necessities in this room, such as iron pots and towels. Lighters, dishes, quilts and more. On the only bed in the room, there were some delicate woven handicrafts and tapestries.

The Bedouins do it every so often. In a few months, or half a year, arrive at the nearest city via the camel team and exchange with the civilized world for what they need.

Suddenly, Chen Rui's eyes were fixed on a wooden sculpture in the corner.

The wood carved into the wood is the date palm called ‘Mother and Aunt of the Arabs’.

Maybe this woodcarving is very old, the woodcarving is a little shabby, dark, and the wood is a bit grooved.

What attracted Chen Rui's attention was not the value of this woodcarving.

in fact. This wood carving is really worthless. The carving is ordinary, and the wood used is the date palm that is common in the desert. There is no cultural or historical value on the woodcarving.

What attracted Chen Rui's attention to this ordinary wood carving was the shape of the wood carving.

The shape of the woodcarving is a strange worm.

The worm is a bit like a large intestine, with a short tail, an open mouth like a sucker, and four tentacles on the edge of the mouth.

What type of insect is this! It seemed a bit scary, and Chen Rui was curious.

Chen Rui finished eating the pancake on his hand. Stand up and walked over. Pick up the woodcarving and hold it in your hand. Looked carefully.

At this moment, a middle-aged person pushed in and walked in, calling the elder, and the hospitable hostess shouted.

"Sharp." The elder said a ‘sharp’ sound, and then pointed at the middle-aged person and gestured a few times.

Chen Rui quickly understood.

The relationship between the elderly and the middle-aged is a father-son relationship.

Another surprise for Chen Rui is that middle-aged people can speak some simple English.

"Welcome you, distant guests." Middle-aged people are just like the elderly and hospitable hostess. They are very warm, hospitable, and greeted Chen Rui with a smile. "My name is Kalam Keshi, responsible The village communicates with the outside world. Every six months, I will use the camel team to take the village's woven handicrafts and tapestries to the village of Gala, which is hundreds of kilometers away, and exchange things for the village. This time, I just returned from Gala. "

Camels are the most powerful means of transportation. The commercial roads that camels cover the entire desert area. A large male camel can carry 800 kilograms of goods at a time.

The only connection between the Bedouins and civilized society here is the small camel caravan of Kalam.

No wonder, the elders have great prestige in the village.

The Kara mentioned in Karam's mouth, Chen Rui knows, before visiting Egypt, check some information, and the mysterious pyramid is in the triangular area between the three points of Gala, West Dubai Raney, Zaviye Um Reham Therefore, Chen Rui knew more about Gala.

Gala is an oasis city deep in the Egyptian desert, with a population of about 100,000 people.

If you say that ancient Egypt was raised by the Nile.

Then Gala emerged from the lake.

The lake provides sufficient water for more than 100,000 residents living in Gala. Similarly, due to the nourishment and irrigation of the lake, an oasis is formed around the lake, and a piece of green in the Wudi desert.

"Hello, Kalam, thank you very much for your hospitality." Chen Rui said.

At this moment, Kalam suddenly noticed the wood carving in Chen Rui's hand and said to Chen Rui, "Rui, you are very interested in this wood carving."

At this time, the four members of Li Wanhao also noticed the wood carving in Chen Rui's hand.

"Brother Chen, can you show me?" Li Manhao said to Chen Rui.

Chen Rui nodded ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Passed the woodcarving to Li Manhao, turned his head and said, "Can you tell me about this woodcarving?"

"Certainly." Kalam said. "This woodcarving has existed for a long time. I don't know how long. I only know that I saw this woodcarving when I was a kid. Woodcarving is a legendary monster in the desert. 'Karnrick', 'Karnrick' means desert devil, desert devil in our local language, and of course, it has another more daunting name, Death Worm. "

"Dead bug.!"

"Yes, the dead bug is a huge blood-red poisonous insect that lives in the desert. Its shape is weird, just like the blood sausage. It is so huge that people will feel very small when they stand in front of it.

Death bugs usually lurk in the sand. Once the camel team approaches it, the dead bugs that feel the ground shaking will suddenly get out of the sand and attack the camel caravan.

Not only can a dead insect swallow a person alive through its mouth like a sucker, but it also sprays venom, discharges electricity, and can even electrocute a person or camel a few meters away! For camel caravans who often walk in the desert, encountering it is a nightmare! "(To be continued)
