Pet King
chapter-1194

Zhang Zian was amused when he offered the invitation. If he succeeded, it would be the most ridiculous expedition in history: the Scientific Examination Team and a group of believers of mysticism entering the desert together.

Since it was like that, whether the suggestion worked or not would depend on Lee Peter’s expression. There was no way. Who’d let Lee Peter have a hold of the deciding power, using the leader of the village to forcefully find a guide?

If Lee Peter directly rejected it, then he had no other method. Zhang Zian could only go back to convince Wei Kang to cancel the original plan, and whether Wei Kang would agree or not would be hard to say.

Lee Peter did not hesitate for too long. After a little muttering to himself, he nodded happily. “Great! I like this plan! I had hoped to further explore with you the knowledge of the pure energy of the universe, and finally I got what I wanted! And I also want to meet the members of the science team. We must have many common languages!”

That would be strange!

Zhang Zian was insulted in his heart, but he also let out a breath of relief.

“Don’t you need to discuss with the other people before making a decision?” He indicated those believers behind Lee Peter.

“No, the members of the Cosmological Information Society are like brothers and sisters. Any member’s decision can represent everyone’s opinions.” Peter turned his head back with a smile. “Are you guys willing to go with Jeff and the members of the Chinese Scientific Examination Team?”

The believers all nodded.

“We are willing!”

“We would be honored to!”

“We would not wish for anything else!”

Zhang Zian didn’t say anything.

Forget it. When the car reached the mountain, there would be a road. If there was a road, there must be a Wuling car. Take things one step at a time.

Lee Peter announced, “To sufficiently express our sincerity, all the costs the Chinese science team incurs after entering the desert, we will pay. There is no need to take a single cent from the Scientific Examination Team!”

The believers did not have any opinions towards this decision, as if the money being spent was not their money.

Zhang Zian did not go through the meaningless process of acting modest. No matter how generous Lee Peter was, the team still had to prepare its own materials. It could not place the life-giving supply of food and water in the hands of others.

“Now that we are grasshoppers on the same string, can you tell me where you are going?” Zhang Zian asked.

Since Lee Peter had specially came to Siva Oasis to ask for a guide, there was no need to ask. It must be the same as the science team, the western desert, but the exact area must be made clear first.

“Of course.” Lee Peter took out a folded map from the inside pocket of his suit and showed it to everyone.

Zhang Zian and Nabari extended their necks to look over.

“It’s roughly this area. Is there any problem?” Lee Peter drew a circle with his fingers.

The area he drew was also located in the triangular shape formed by the border between Egypt and Libya, the Siva Oasis, and the Black-and-White Desert.

Nabari’s eyebrows trembled a bit, his pupils slightly shrinking before he returned to his original state quickly.

Although this was an extremely small action, it did not escape Zhang Zian’s notice. Could it be that there was a problem with this area?

“No problem. I can take you there,” Nabari said, bending down, picking up a burnt piece of charcoal, and handing it to Lee Peter. “But the area you’ve drawn is still very large, and it’s better to narrow it down so that we can prepare supplies and camels.”

Lee Peter waved his hand without taking the charcoal, looked at Zhang Zian, and said, “When we get into the desert, I will give a more precise location, but for now, that’s fine, isn’t it? As for camels and supplies, the more the better. The money is not to be worried about.”

Nabari nodded. “Alright.”

Zhang Zian understood that Lee Peter was on guard against him, but this also aroused his curiosity. Did the place where Lee Peter wanted to go need to be so secretive?

The Bedouin hut roof was simply made of thatch and twigs. After all, it did not need to be rainproof. It only needed to protect the inhabitants from the sun. The slight shadows of sunshine penetrated into the house.

Zhang Zian’s eyelids twitched, noticing that the shadows on the ground seemed to have moved a bit.

He slightly lifted up his head, not noticeable by the others, and just happened to meet Fina’s eyes.

He did not know when, but Fina had quietly run to the roof of the shed, and its green eyes were staring at the map in Lee Peter’s hand.

It seemed to be surprised just now. Its ears moved and the shadows formed by its ears trembled, which was what Zhang Zian noticed.

Fina glared in warning, signaling for him not to make any noise.

Zhang Zian quietly averted his eyes and became more confused. Was it that not only Lee Peter and Nabari, but Fina was also interested in that area?

“Peter, what is there in this area of the desert? Can you tell me?” He asked, pretending to be close.

Lee Peter smiled. “Is there a need to ask? Of course, it has something to do with the pure energy of the universe.”

Zhang Zian didn’t say anything.

Just now, they had been communicating in English, but Lee Peter suddenly switched to Chinese and said mysteriously, “Jeff, if you really want to know, why don’t you join us? There are no secrets in our institute. Any information can be shared within us.”

Zhang Zian didn’t want to join that bullsh*t society. He said, “I can think about it, but you also need to show some sincerity. If it’s something I’m really interested in, it’s not impossible to join the society.”

Lee Peter pondered and did not say anything.

“If it’s not convenient to say, then just leave it.” Zhang Zian adopted the strategy of allowing him to be at large and then capturing him and pretended not to be very interested.

As expected, Lee Peter was fooled. He laughed and said, “Nothing is inconvenient. It’s alright to tell you. There are talented people from all walks of life in our society. Some of them have accidentally obtained an ancient map, which specially highlights an area. After careful comparison, this map should be a map of ancient Egypt. That area is located deep in the western desert, marked by an inverted triangle. We speculate that this inverted triangle may be an undiscovered pyramid.”

He lamented, “The Great Pyramid has been open for a long time. Every day, too many tourists come to visit it. The cosmic energy in it is almost exhausted. If there is an undiscovered pyramid, it must contain tremendous energy that has never been seen before!”

Zhang Zian kept frowning on hearing that. What kind of nonsense was this? Do you think you’re Indiana Jones? That so-called ancient map sounds suspicious, too.

But Lee Peter had his own theory. “Do you know? The people who first entered the Great Pyramid died one after another because of various strange diseases,” he said. “People say that it is the curse of Pharaoh, but in our view, it is because the Great Pyramid accumulated thousands of years of cosmic energy, and they had not been trained. Their bodies could not bear such pure and huge amounts of cosmic energy. After that, with the loss of cosmic energy, the so-called curse disappeared as well.”
