From: Eight Flavors of Life —— Edited by Tang Wen

Honesty is a sharp weapon to solve all problems in life.

Dilama, known as the ghost town, is located at the entrance of the Valley of the Kings. During the 600 years from the Pharaoh Bidong to the Pharaoh Lanser, all foreigners who entered the town were cheated.

According to historical records, the first foreigner who came here was a businessman. He wanted to sell some silverware back to China, but a child leading the way cheated him out of wearing a pair of leather boots. There is also a traveler from Damascus who wants to explore the treasures of the Valley of the Kings. However, in less than a quarter of an hour, he was cheated of all his money and luggage by a gypsy. It is said that an Indian wizard with the highest skill wandered here, but he didn't escape being cheated. The only thing on him, the copper snake tube, was cheated away by a mute.

There are always different opinions about the mystery of ghost towns. Some people say that Tirama is the projection point of the center of gravity of the three constellations of lion, buffalo and Sirius on the ground. Because of its special geographical position, outsiders will lose their minds when they enter here. Others say that the spell of Egyptian Pharaoh Tutankhamun is at work. He said, "Anyone who disturbs the peace of Pharaoh will die". At this entrance, he kindly reminds you not to walk into the Valley of the Kings in the way of "making you lose money".

However, since an ancient Greek philosopher came here, these statements have been passively shaken. Because as a foreigner, he lived in the city for a year, not only his mind was as clear as before, but also his belongings were not lost. A Roman businessman was very excited when he learned that. He thought that a person who can walk out of Dilama innocently must have cracked the spell of Pharaoh. Because he knew that the town of Dilama was deliberately arranged by Pharaoh Tutankhamun. According to the Roman sheepskin book, after the restoration of Pharaoh Tutankhamun's tomb, 3,000 swindlers imprisoned in prison were secretly exiled here to prevent the invasion of grave robbers. Pharaoh believed that the wisdom of one person could limit the wisdom of another.

The Roman merchant decided to visit the Greek philosopher. He came to Greece with his caravan, but unfortunately the philosopher has been dead for five years. The Greeks told him that the philosopher left a sentence on the stone wall of the temple of Moses before he died, which was written after he returned from roaming in Dilama. So the merchant came to the temple. Staring at the words left by philosophers on the stone wall for a long time, the businessman couldn't help mumbling: how well said! How well you speak! Then prostrate to pay tribute to the philosopher.

One day 2300 years later, an archaeologist dug up seven huge stone tablets at the foot of the Chaldeans Mountain, one of which was engraved with the words: When you are honest with yourself, no one in the world can cheat you. This sentence was left by that philosopher.
