Tom Cat breaks through the dimensional wall.

We have returned home, and Xiaoyu and Tangmu are rarely obedient.

Jackie Chan turned to look at Blake and apologized, "I'm sorry, Blake, it seems I can't help you, but I can recommend some Egyptian experts to you. I probably won't go to Egypt in the near future."

He had just finished speaking when the old man at the counter seemed to remember something. He took out a letter from under the counter and said to Jackie Chan, "Oh, by the way, there is one more thing!"

"Aaron, someone sent you a letter through World Archaeology Magazine. They said they read your paper on ancient Egyptian and were very interested in your knowledge. They want to invite you to Egypt."

Jackie Chan: "..."

Blake: "It seems that you really won't be going to Egypt in the near future, Jackie Chan."

Monthly ticket for this month: 500

Add 2000 words

40,000 words owed

Take a day off

Sorry, I really can't take it anymore.

The friends in the group are very clear that for more than a month, the average sleep time per day is only five hours.

They were all afraid that I would die suddenly.

Because my job is very busy, my working hours are twelve hours.

If you don’t have enough rest time, your writing state will not be good. Not only will the quality of the text decline, but the writing speed will also be affected, further compressing your sleep time, which will lead to a vicious circle.

Now my whole head feels a bit rusty, and I get palpitations.

After thinking for a long time, I decided to take a leave for the sake of my life.

By the way, let me sort out the subsequent plot ideas.

I'm so sorry.

Chapter 176 Speedy Flight

"Dad, do you still have the letter? Let me see it."

Faced with Blake's teasing, Jackie Chan seemed a little embarrassed. He asked his father about the letter out of curiosity, and at the same time wanted to change the subject.

"Of course I still have it. It's right here. Take it and have a look if you want."

Dad raised his hand and pointed at a letter on the counter.

Hearing this, Jackie Chan walked over, picked up the letter and took a look.

The sender was indeed from World Archaeology Magazine, and the address was from London, England.

The World Archaeology Magazine's office is located there.

After reading the envelope, Jackie Chan took out the letter inside and read it carefully.

Although his father had just given Jackie Chan a general idea of ​​the contents of the letter, it was not a big deal to him after all, so he still wanted to take a closer look.

Seeing Jackie Chan reading the letter, Xiaoyu and Tang Mu, as two curious little kids, also came over to watch the fun.

Because he was not tall enough, Tom moved a folding ladder and placed it behind Jackie Chan.

The man and the cat climbed up the ladder and looked down at the letter with Jackie Chan.

Seeing this, Blake didn't know what to say.

Although the main job of District 13 is to investigate various extraordinary events, he should have a certain immunity.

But he really couldn't accept someone like Tang Mu.

No matter how many times he saw it, Blake felt that the existence of a cat like Tom was really unreasonable.

Even if all the gods and Buddhas appeared in the sky, they could not be as great as the shock that this cat brought to his heart.

Tom's performance a few hours ago had left such a deep impression on him that he would probably never forget it for the rest of his life.

Blake thought that his spirit was still strong, at least he didn't go crazy.

You know, Daniel, who drove him before, is now receiving treatment from a psychiatrist in District 13.

Tom the cat has now become the focus of observation in District 13.

However, the main responsibility of District 13 is to investigate and observe, and it does not interfere in other matters, so no one will come to affect Tom's life.

It's not just about Tom, it's also about other extraordinary events.

On the other side, Jackie Chan had carefully read the letter sent by the magazine.

Generally speaking, it is what my father just said.

But Jackie Chan is still more or less a scholar, and he still has the rigor that a scholar should have.

Some key information in the letter is also very important and must be read.

Generally speaking, it was the several papers on ancient Egyptian that Jackie Chan submitted previously that attracted the attention of some experts in the industry.

It just so happened that the curator of the Egyptian Museum at the British Museum also noticed Jackie Chan's paper and had been studying its feasibility.

The understanding of ancient Egyptian by industry experts in this world is different from that in the main world.

Their understanding of ancient Egyptian writing at this time was more inclined to the views expressed in "Egyptian Hieroglyphics", a book about Egyptian hieroglyphs written by Hera around 500 AD.

The book suggests that the rabbit symbol in Egyptian hieroglyphics means open because the rabbit's eyes are always open.

The symbol of the vulture means mother, as all vultures are female.

These contents are undoubtedly quite ridiculous, but the problem is that it successfully led all subsequent researchers astray, and they all fell into the ditch.

All of them are rushing forward on the path of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs without looking back, so much so that today ancient Egyptian is called a dead language.

No one can translate.

Jackie Chan seems to have a very strong talent for languages ​​and his thinking is also unsettled.

Inspired by the deciphering of Xixia script, and as a Chinese, Jackie Chan is naturally very clear about the development history of Chinese characters. Naturally, he was inspired and had some different ideas about the deciphering of ancient Egyptian script.

Why did ancient Egyptian have to be ideographic?

Perhaps, those symbols can actually be used directly as letters after being marked with pronunciation.

It was because of these thoughts that Jackie Chan immediately began to conduct research along this line of thought.

Finally, some results were achieved.

Just like in a paper he submitted before, Jackie Chan compared the names in the royal circle of the kings of the Ptolemaic dynasty.

This is used to preliminarily prove that ancient Egyptian characters can be used as letters to indicate pronunciation.

Subsequent step-by-step research and the publication of papers made Jackie Chan's conjecture more likely.

Because of this, Jackie Chan is considered to be somewhat famous among scholars who study ancient Egypt.

His identity is like Champollion who deciphered ancient Egyptian in the main world of Tom Mu.

But for now, his status is not as high as Shang Boliang's, nor does he have that much authority.

But for the almost stagnant ancient Egyptian translation, the appearance of Jackie Chan has given everyone a completely new way of thinking.

It just so happened that the curator of the Egyptian Museum of the British Museum had made some new archaeological discoveries and was planning to invite Jackie Chan to participate in an archaeological mission in Egypt.

It is really rare to be invited to participate in archaeological activities like this.

Even though Jackie Chan is considered to be a well-known figure in the industry, he is also an honorary professor at the University of Hong Kong.

But this is the second time I have received such a serious invitation.

Especially an invitation of this level from the British Museum.

In fact, Jackie Chan has quite complicated feelings towards the British Museum.

As a patriotic Chinese, the large number of Chinese collections in the British Museum remind him of that humiliating history and the ugly faces of the British.

But as an insider, he is also well aware of the help that the invitation from the British Museum will bring to his archaeological career.

After thinking for a while, Jackie Chan finally sighed and decided to accept the invitation to take a look.

He really loves archaeology, and even if this trip has no reputation to help him, he will go at his own expense after learning that there are new archaeological discoveries.

This has nothing to do with the British Museum.

Jackie Chan also knows some foreign archaeologists. There are indeed many bad people among them, but there are also some good ones. Jackie Chan still wants to control his emotions as much as possible and not affect innocent people.

Chinese people are always like this. Because they are too civilized, they seem out of place in the barbaric world dominated by the West.

As a rational adult, Jackie Chan still needs to weigh his own thoughts.

As an invincible cat, Tom's ideas are of course simpler.

After seeing the British Museum in the letter, a bold idea came to Tom's mind.

Many Chinese people probably have similar ideas.

But due to reality and strength reasons, in the end it can only be thought about but cannot be implemented.

Tom is different, its strength is unquestionable.

In that case, when there is an opportunity in the future, just do it as soon as you think of it.

But there is no rush for this matter. Anyway, I will have the opportunity to go to the UK in the future and I can do that thing then.

Now, Jackie Chan should accept the invitation, and a new adventure will probably begin.

Its side quests can go a step further.

So it has to follow Jackie Chan well.

The final result was not unexpected.

Jackie Chan did accept the invitation and sent a reply email, confirming the time and place.

"Jackie Chan."

Watching Jackie Chan finish his work, Blake, who had been waiting for a long time, stared at Jackie Chan, his bald head was very conspicuous under the light.

Although Blake didn't say anything, Jackie Chan naturally knew what he wanted to say.

"Okay, okay. Blake, when we get to Egypt, I'll help you look into the matter of the scarab if I have time."

Jackie Chan rejected Blake's invitation because he was not planning to go to Egypt and did not want to get involved in Blake's affairs.

But now that they are going to Egypt, and as one of Jackie Chan's few old friends, Blake naturally can't refuse when things have come to this point.

Seeing this, Blake smiled with satisfaction.

But before Jackie Chan could finish his words, he looked at his old friend and said, "Blake, let me be frank. My main mission in Egypt is to participate in archaeological activities. I cannot guarantee that I can help you investigate the scarab."

"I know. It's good enough that you agree to help. We in District 13 really need talents like you."

There was no change in the expression on Blake's face.

He knew Jackie Chan. This guy was too kind. As long as a gap was opened, things would be much easier in the future.

If you can help the first time, there will definitely be a second and third time.

Even though he is not named as the consultant of District 13, it is almost the same.

Blake also wouldn't let Jackie Chan work for nothing.

He has found out that Jackie Chan's income situation has been very poor recently.

This job in District 13 at least allows Jackie Chan to live a less difficult life.

Speaking of income.

Blake looked at Tom who was watching his tail nearby.

This cat has made a lot of money selling books recently.

The book "Jackie Chan Adventures: The Myth" did make Tom a lot of money.

It’s a pity that this money can only be kept in this world and cannot be taken to other worlds. So it doesn’t mean much to Tom Mu.

But it’s good to have this money, at least I don’t have to use the money in my cat’s account anymore.

"Uncle Long, so you have decided to go to Egypt?"
