v2 Chapter 150: Aswan night market

"The day of the draw at Hogwarts(

Overnight trains, also known as sleep cars, or night trains. Passengers board at night and arrive at their destination when they wake up the next morning. One of the more famous night trains is the one that departs from Florence and arrives in Venice - of course, the departure station of this car is not Florence, but getting on the train from Florence is the most comfortable way to sit.

The sleeping car is a little different from the ordinary green leather car: its condition is much better, most of the seats are sleeper, and they are all boxes, this kind of car is mostly "emotional", green leather car, that's true As a last resort.

It’s like farming, some people go into seclusion, and some people are forced by life. Although it is one thing, its nature is completely different. As a tourist, you can really experience the "sleep car", which is a very novel tourist experience.

Tom and Hermione were in a sleeping car.

Tom and Hermione walked into their box, which was surprisingly good. Tom boarded this train with the mentality of riding an Indian train, and when he entered the box, he found that the environment was okay: clean seats, no graffiti walls and bright glass. Even if the scope of comparison is spread all over the world, it is still a first-class box.

Tom opened a curtain on the wall of the carriage and saw a hook for hanging clothes. The top of the hook was recessed, and there was a guardrail with two pillows in it. Next to the hook is a mirror and a sink, as well as a charging socket.

Tom turned on the faucet of the sink, and the water flow was very small, not much bigger than the wizard's "clear water like a spring", but if you can enjoy a separate box and a separate sink on the train, what kind of bicycle do you need? !

There are also box lunches to choose from, chicken rice and grilled fish rice, but Tom still chooses to eat his own Super Roujiamo.

When he woke up the next day, Tom had arrived at the Aswan Railway Station.

The folk customs here are more open. Walking on the street, people will come out from time to time to say hello to Tom and the others.

They stopped a taxi and headed to the market in Aswan.

The driver is very chatty, even if the two languages ​​are not actually that smooth. The driver introduced himself and the city to them in half-baked English. Through him, Tom knew that the dark fat uncle in front of him was a Nubian, and he enthusiastically approached Tom Amway's pyramids in Cairo and the big market in Nubia.

It can be seen that the uncle is very proud of his Nubian identity.

Entering the market, a world of fireworks blows.

The market has a very strong North African style. Everywhere Tom and Hermione passed, local hawkers shouted the word "free" to them.

Hermione stopped at a roadside stall and looked curiously at the goods on the stall. only……

"Is this an Egyptian product?"

"Remove that!"

Hermione:  …

"What about this?"

"Remove that! Also."

"Are there any local specialties in Egypt?"

The owner was a little ashamed, and finally pointed to a wooden clip-like thing, indicating that it was made in Egypt.

Tom and Hermione were wandering around the market, but there was basically nothing that piqued Tom's interest, except ice cream.

The sun sets in the west, and night falls.

"Yeah!" Hermione exclaimed suddenly.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing! Let's go!" In the dim light, Tom couldn't see Hermione's face, but she kept urging him to leave. When Tom saw the goods in the window of the roadside shop, he suddenly realized: No wonder Hermione is shy, so it is!

On the side of the road is an Egyptian statue shop.

Buy Egyptian statues.

In fact, there are many such shops in tourist attractions, but one problem does exist: Egypt still retains reproductive worship. The so-called reproductive worship is a common custom in primitive society. It is an expression of the ancestors' pursuit of happiness and hope for a prosperous career, and it is also a kind of praise and yearning for the reproductive ability of organisms.

To put it simply, it is to carve a large outrageous police officer on the statue.

In addition to some earthenware bottles and jars and cat statues, there are abstract art statues with the color of reproductive worship: mostly male reproductive organs.

There are various forms of the statues, some of which are a man in ancient Egyptian clothes, with a huge iron rod that is about the same length and thickness as his upper body, and some are a single huge black iron rod. Of course, Tom also saw a magical sculpture of small iron rods growing from iron rods.

Seeing Tom was attracted instead, Hermione looked like she was about to cry, she stomped her feet, "Tom Yodell! What's so good about this store—"

However, the owner also found potential customers and immediately pulled them in enthusiastically.

"Statue!" His English was not very good, but he still tried very hard to introduce his products to Tom, "You! Before, buy, this way!" He picked up a statue, the iron rod on it was only the thickness of an arm, Although it is too large to be distorted, it is indeed the smallest of the group of statues. "Later, buy it, you are like this!" Then, he picked up a statue with an unusually huge iron rod and gestured.

Probably want to say After buying it, you can get the favor of strange gods, make yourself a big boy, big enough to peep abalone through the tube, and get a tyrannical posture that is enough to scrape the intestines and wash the stomach. .

"NO, NO, NO," Tom waved his hands again and again, he pointed to the second statue, "Well, I have it, I don't need it."

Shopkeeper:  …

Hermione: ? ! !

The shop owner thought for a while, then took out a pack of medicinal powder with unknown ingredients, "This, drink, be stronger!" At the same time, he made a strange movement.

"????!????????????!" A tall bald old man came out and repelled the man who was trying to imagine Tom selling medicine powder and statues, then looked at Tom, using a fluent English apologizes to Tom.

"Sorry, just now, Apdura was outspoken and said something he shouldn't have said. Please come with me." He made a gesture of "please" and glared at Apdura next to him, telling him to get out of the way. Stay away and reflect on what you have done - how can you sell such a thing to a guest with a female companion! How could a guest buy this kind of thing in front of his girlfriend!

Hermione breathed a sigh of relief when she saw someone make a move.

The old man took the two to the shop next door, which looked much more normal and contained statues of ancient Egyptian gods and white robes.

After entering the store, he picked up a kobold statue and handed it to Tom.

"Anubis," the shopkeeper told Tom about the statues of the **** Anubis.

"I am a real Nubian, and this statue is the most realistic Anubis statue in Aswan." The old man smiled and said proudly.

"Nubia in the night market..." Tom frowned.
