Chapter 159: Give Way
Inside the taxi.
Ye Bei rolled the car window halfway down.
The indifferent gaze quietly looked at the buildings of this city, and under the speed of the car, he retreated to the rear.
Perhaps because of the news just now, the taxi driver was still unfulfilled and took the initiative to speak.
"Pyramid is a really real miracle. It has been preserved for thousands of years. According to some messy data records, it is likely to be from alien buildings. Some people even said that the Pyramid itself is an alien weapon. Say, everyone is living well, but you suddenly intruded their home, so isn't thing seeking death?" The driver's saliva sputtered, and this statement was obviously baseless.
Ye Bei listened leisurely.
The so-called truth had always been concealed by powerful people.
After a long time, he said, "Hebei Province, thousands of years ago, this place was still a barren ruin. Only some people from the commoner countryside built many thatched huts and became the capital of the country of Yan among the seven heroes of the Warring States Period!"
"The development of the times is different. Back then, as long as there is vacant land, anyone can build a thatched hut. How could it be like now? It's not known how many vacant lands are available in the whole country, but it does not belong to the citizen. And the house itself is not allowed to be built. If you want a house, you have to buy it. I wonder why my ancestors had such a bad vision. If a thatched house was built here decades ago, I wouldn't have to worry about it for the rest of my life." The driver turned the steering wheel. After hearing Ye Bei's words, his interest came, and he answered the conversation without hesitation.
Ye Bei shook his head lightly, "Those ancient people who fought for peace passionately wanted to live like this in their dreams, but some current people now always dream of going back to the past."
"Uh!" The taxi driver slowed down. HIs body was slightly taken aback.
Through the rearview mirror, he looked at the young man sitting in the back row. He only felt that this boy was fundamentally different from himself.
"Don't tell me that it's the truth." After thinking for a long time, the taxi driver replied and opened his mouth, ready to continue to say something, but he didn't know where to start.
Inside the car, the silence was restored.
Both of them stopped talking.
Only the report on the radio came again.
It was still the female voice and she seemed to be a bit excited.
"Dear viewers, according to the latest report, Egypt has completely sealed off the Pyramid of Khufu. There are dense clouds over there, and it is very likely that there will be torrential rain. This is a climate rarely encountered in a thousand years. Today is the first day of mystery exploration. The combination of the two is really weird. So because of this incident, we interviewed the local people and they answered like this"
Inside the radio, the voice turned.
Soon, a male voice speaking the Egyptian language popped up.
Besides that, another low male voice was translating.
"The Pyramid is a holy artifact in Egypt. It contains the remains of His Royal Highness the Pharaoh. It has been passed down for thousands of years. The official excavation today is an act of rebellion. Naturally, it will be condemned by the heavens. This abnormal climate change can explain the problem." The translation was finished.
"The Pyramid is built on a desert. It rarely rains in that land. But there are signs of heavy rain today. It's really unclear and I just don't know what the Egyptian God looks like!" The taxi driver spoke again.
"The weather changes over there are actually very normal, it's just because some people are unhappy. However, the archaeological experts in the report should have really been killed." Ye Bei replied lightly.
The taxi driver was puzzled: "If someone is unhappy, they can affect the mood?"
"Yes, because they didn't find the answer they wanted." Ye Bei responded softly, and then he looked out the window again.
The taxi shook his head and felt that Ye Bei was talking big words, "You know too much."
"Yeah, I just came back from there."
"Uh!" The taxi driver paused and raised his brows. Obviously, he didn't believe Ye Bei's words.
The car was still driving aimlessly on the road.
This talkative driver, perhaps because talking to Ye Bei was very troublesome, so he basically remained silent.
Ten minutes later.
The taxi went into an alley.
"Pull over here." Looking at the scenery outside the window, from a high-rise building to a historic alley, Ye Bei spoke again.
"Good." The driver nodded and stepped on the brake.
Ye Bei paid, got off the car, and left.
When Ye Bei's figure gradually disappeared in the alley, the driver sitting in the driving seat slapped his head and muttered to himself, "It's really a strange customer, after so many years of driving taxi, this is my first time seeing one! But I can't really tell how strange he is."
Abandoning these words, the driver drove the car away and continued looking for other guests on the side of the road.
...
The yard in Hebei was not as lonely as in the previous ancient alley.
There were a lot of pedestrians coming and going here. It was full of red dust atmosphere.
Ye Bei walked slowly through this alley, but there was a natural gap between it and the red dust here.
Maybe it was because of the different dresses.
Perhaps because of the unique temperament of his body.
Maybe it was because he was different and otherworldly.
When passing by, basically every pedestrian would cast his gaze on him with a bit of curiosity in his eyes.
However, no matter what their eyes were, Ye Bei didn't care.
The ground of this alley was also paved with stones, but it was cratered, perhaps because of heavy rain, some of the pits still carried a lot of water stains.
From time to time, some office workers in suits rushed past this alley.
They didn't care about those puddles.
Even many people stepped in the puddle and splashed a lot of stains, but when the sewage was about to splash on Ye Bei, it all fell automatically, without a trace of it sticking.
He had not gone far yet as a sudden yell came from behind, "Make way!"
At the same moment, there was also a burst of intensive footsteps.
A man in a black suit was rushing forward from behind with a strong wind.
Ye Bei's pace remained the same.
The man almost rubbed Ye Bei's body.
Immediately, several more men followed and whizzed past. Seeing that Ye Bei didn't mean to give way, they all surrounded Ye Bei.
One of the men in a suit stood directly in front of Ye Bei and blocked him. He opened his angry eyes, and his momentum was fierce, "Boy, are you deaf? I let you give way; did you not hear me?"
Ye Bei looked at him leisurely and ignored him as though he was a fly.
Then, as if there was no one in front, he walked forward slowly.
"Boy, you are looking for death!" The man in the suit roared. Then he raised his fist and wanted to smash Ye Bei.
"Stop."
However, just as the man was about to take action, a weak voice came from behind, and the man in the suit stopped.
And Ye Bei was still walking forward without care.
Seeing this, the man in suit avoided instinctively and watched Ye Bei leisurely walk through in front of him.
