The Pyramid Chapter 8
ISIS ON EARTH The pyramids pink in the morning light, just as they always are, to this day; but one of them ruddier than the others—the smallest and most beautiful of the three mighty ones, for it is sheathed in polished red granite from its pointed apex down to the mighty platform on which it stands. Ruddier also is the face of the sphinx, of mighty Harmachis, which guards the necropolis of Memphis, for the same queen who sheathed the pyramid of Menkaura in red granite has likewise caused the face…-

The Pyramid Chapter 7
BACK, FIVE THOUSAND YEARS Carlton felt that there was no need for haste. His first sense of panic had disappeared by this time. In its place had come a feeling of wonder comparatively reflective and calm. He was intensely alert to his physical sensations and his physical surroundings. This was lion-skin on which he reclined. Beneath it was the unmistakable feel of solid rock. "This is an inner chamber of the pyramid," he said softly. "Yes, my own." "And you are Queen Netokris?" "Most…-

After that night, Li Zhenyu ignored me for days. Honestly, I enjoyed the peace and threw myself into brainstorming ways to make money. Pointing at an ancient-looking podocarpus tree outside the window, I said excitedly, “Look, that tree is over two hundred years old. Li Zhenyu paid three million yuan for it. If I sell it and replace it with a cheap one, we could pocket the difference. What do you think?” The system immediately shot me down. I was annoyed. “How could selling a tree possibly affect…-

Outside, rain pours down in sheets. I pull my trench coat tight and answer my ringing phone. “Hello?” “Qian Qian, did you get the money? Your dad’s still waiting for surgery.” It’s my mom, once the elegant Mrs. Yan Group, now living in a cramped rental with my dad. After Yan Group went bankrupt, my dad had a heart attack and landed in the hospital. With all our assets frozen, I had no choice but to ask Li Zhenyu for help. I find an ATM, transfer the money to my mom, but she calls back,…

The Pyramid Chapter 6
THROUGH GHOSTLY CORRIDORS He knew that they had not entered the Pyramid of Menkaura by the passageway used by tourists to-day. In that monograph of his there is a rough sketch which indicates, so far as possible, the route which he and "the woman" had followed—a succession of ghostly corridors, concerning which there is to-day no other record. Nothing will ever be done about it, most likely. The indications—Carlton admits it frankly enough—leave much to be desired. Neither geometry nor…-

The Pyramid Chapter 5
INTO THE DARK It may be said with perfect confidence that everything depends on a man's personality, on his temperament, anyway. The Society for Psychical Research, both in England and in America, has paid a good deal of attention to this phase of a man. The majority of people never see a ghost, never have even a ghostly feeling, except a sort of "creepiness," perhaps, when something or other occurs that they do not immediately understand. Yet, over against this truth is the other—that the annals…-

The Pyramid Chapter 4
NIGHT OF THE NEW MOON Dances, dinners, almost daily letters from Alice up the Nile—which he answered with some fervor, as well as with perfect promptness—and all the other ordinary features of the Egyptian season; yet Carlton could not get away from the feeling of mystery that clung close about him. For that matter, he didn’t try to. It was in keeping with his mood. Only in a roundabout way had he questioned Osman about the apparition he had seen on the steps of the mosque of Ibn-Tulun. It must…-

Xiaomei couldn’t stop raving about the new exchange student during lunch. "You have to believe me, even just his side profile blows Rui Chen out of the water." She tried to show me blurry photos, but after everything with Rui Chen and Zhou Wang, I had a solid case of "hot-guy PTSD." I managed to avoid her matchmaking, only to see Su Miao striding straight toward me. "Mu Xing, can we talk?" she said coldly. She led me behind the cafeteria, away from prying eyes, dropping her "sweet girl" mask and…-

The landlord called. Turns out the building’s circuits were fried. He’d send an electrician tomorrow. Under the circumstances, Ling Yan reluctantly agreed to sleep on the pillow next to mine for the night. "So, you are afraid of ghosts?" I asked again, hiding under the quilt. He shot me a proud, wounded look, huffed "Go to sleep," and burrowed in deeper. When the landlord brought a repairman the next morning, I had to smuggle Ling Yan to school in my largest backpack, leaving a little gap so…

After school, I got ambushed on my usual route by a notorious bully. My heart ached as I fished out my last two hundred yuan, the exact money I’d scrimped and saved for cat fish oil. The bully grabbed my chin, sneering at my show of helplessness. "Acting pitiful doesn’t work on me." "Okay, okay," I smiled nervously, slyly sliding the bills back into my pocket. He spotted it, snorted, and let go. "You’re only with Rui Chen for his money, aren’t you?" For his money? It felt like a cold…
