In that year, Li Changyu traveled to Egypt, and the tour guide pointed to the desert next to the pyramids and introduced: "The ancient Egyptians buried more than 200,000 tons of gold under this desert, and whoever found it belonged to whom." ”
Lee Chang-yu, a detective known for his meticulousness, traveled to Egypt one year.
That day, he and a group of tourists stood on the vast desert next to the pyramids, the hot wind blowing on everyone's faces.
The tour guide is a middle-aged man, dressed in traditional costume, with a mysterious smile on his face.
The guide pointed to the sand at their feet and introduced in a legendary tone: "The ancient Egyptians buried more than 200,000 tons of gold under this desert, which is a century-old secret, and whoever finds it belongs to whomever it is." ”
Hearing this, the tourists' faces immediately appeared with excitement and greed.
Some began to discuss how to distribute the gold, while others looked around and seemed to want to start digging immediately. There is an unrealistic fantasy throughout the desert.
However, Li Changyu was not swayed by these words.
He walked to the guide's side, observed quietly for a while, and then whispered to the guide: "Mr. guide, you are lying, the total amount of gold mined in the world by the end of 2018 is only 191,000 tons, how can the ancient Egyptians bury more than 200,000 tons of gold?"
Hearing this, the tour guide's face suddenly changed.
There was a hint of embarrassment and surprise in his eyes, obviously not expecting anyone to question his words. Under the pressure of Li Changyu, the tour guide finally admitted that he had indeed exaggerated the figures.
After Lee Chang-yu exposes the inaccuracies in the tour guide's words, the scene seems to split into two very different worlds.
On one side are the tourists who are full of dreams of gold, and on the other side are Li Changyu, a detective with a keen insight into the truth.
The desert appears even more vast and mysterious under the scorching sun.
Tourists, with a thirst for gold, began to pace the sand.
They hold the brim of their hats to shade the sun, or look down at the ground, as if hoping to suddenly discover the hidden treasure in the sand.
Their movements seem a little aimless, but they are full of anticipation. From time to time, someone bent down and stirred the sand on the ground, as if the next movement would unveil the veil of gold.
Lee, meanwhile, acted in a very different way. Instead of joining the group of treasure hunters, he went alone and embarked on a journey to explore the ruins of ancient Egypt.
His steps were steady and calm, walking slowly along the base of the pyramid. His gaze wandered over the stones, as if reading the story of these thousand-year-old antiquities.
Li Changyu carefully observed around the pyramid.
He noticed that the carvings on the stones were faintly visible, and although they had been eroded by countless years of wind and rain, they still faintly revealed the glory of those years.
He stepped closer, reaching out to caress the ancient traces, as if he could feel the breath of those ancient craftsmen.
Li Changyu's steps are not fast, but every step seems thoughtful.
He went around the pyramids and walked to some small ruins nearby.
These sites are not as majestic as the pyramids, but they have their own unique charm.
He carefully observed the structure and decoration of these ruins, and although every stone here was covered in the dust of history, in Li Changyu's eyes, they still shimmered with the light of history.
At this time, the group of tourists looking for gold still wandered in the desert.
Their figures grew more and more depressed in the scorching sun, but they still stubbornly searched in the sand.
There is little communication between them, and everyone is immersed in their own world, with a hint of disappointment and persistence.
Eventually, the sun began to slowly sink in the west, giving the desert a golden coat.
Li Changyu stood in the corner of the pyramid, looking into the distance, and he was deeply shocked by the vastness of the desert and the ancient ruins.
And those tourists who were looking for gold eventually stopped one by one, and in the face of the sunset, they seemed to begin to realize their futility.
Li Changyu's journey is over, and he quietly leaves this mysterious land with awe and understanding of ancient Egyptian civilization.
And those tourists who are looking for gold, although they did not get their wish, also slowly dispersed in the setting sun, perhaps in their hearts, also left the mark of this desert.
