Chapter 819: The Golden Sutra of the Sun

"What is the new ruins?" asked Evan curiously. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It is the relics of the sun, which is said to have been left by Ramses II. Bill said, "You all know Ramses II, right?"

"Well, he is the most famous pharaoh in Egyptian history, and his life experience is simply legendary, and he once led Egypt to its peak!" Hermione said hurriedly, "I have read about him in many books, and he conquered many countries during his lifetime......"

"Yes, this great pharaoh did many great things, and more than half of the existing temples and ruins in Egypt are related to him, and we are always trying to find the secrets he left behind. "Not long ago, a team of explorers found the ruins of the sun in the heart of the city ruins of Pel-Ramses in the northeast of Cairo, which contained important information about the pharaoh, and Gringotts expeditions had already settled in it, but there were still many wizards who came to Egypt and wanted to enter the ruins." ”

"Pell-Ramses?!" Evan repeated.

"An ancient Egyptian city lost to history, built by Ramses II, also known as the homeland of Ramses. Bill explained, "The city was discovered twenty years ago, and subsequent excavations have been going on, and we have found many valuable temples inside." ”

"Why did those wizards enter the Sun Ruins, what were they looking for?" asked Hermione.

"Probably an adventure, to see if there is anything to be gained, this is a normal phenomenon in the Egyptian wizarding world. "Every time a new relic is discovered, it attracts a group of people who are typical opportunists, outlaws who are only interested in money." ”

"Does the Egyptian Ministry of Magic care? They just let these people into the ruins?"

"Unlike us, the Egyptian Ministry of Magic is not against this kind of thing, or is incapable of managing it. There are so many ruins in Egypt that thousands are currently being excavated. Bill said, shrugging his shoulders, "The Ministry of Magic can't explore it at all, and there's no way to provide protection, and the imagination of poaching is very common, which is the main reason why they have to cooperate with Gringotts." The current situation is that as long as you register with the Egyptian Ministry of Magic, you can become a legal explorer and explore and excavate the ruins, but if you really find anything, you must hand it over to the state, and the Egyptian Ministry of Magic will give corresponding compensation, and it is not allowed to smuggle it out, once it is found, it is a felony!"

"Explorer, this profession sounds good!" said Aven.

"It's actually very dangerous, the untrained wizards don't have enough ability to deal with the curses in the ruins, they also lack professional supplies, and people die every year, but if you really want to find something, you can indeed get rich overnight, like this ......" Bi said looked around, and after seeing that he hadn't noticed the three of them, he bent down and said in a low voice, "This time the situation is different, this is originally confidential information, but it's nothing to tell you two." ”

"Confidential information?!" both Evan and Hermione looked at him.

"Yes!" Bill's voice grew lower, "I know from my colleague that, according to reliable historical sources, the ruins of the sun contain the long-lost ancient Egyptian book of the dead, the Golden Book of the Sun, which records the secrets of eternal life. ”

"The Golden Book of the Sun and eternal life!" Hermione held her breath, seemingly fascinated by the book.

Ai Wen sighed, it was immortality and immortality, couldn't these powerful ancient warlocks have a higher pursuit?!

He knew too well the appeal of the word to wizards, and if it was announced, many people would be thrilled about it.

"If I want to see it, this is definitely not true, there may not be the Golden Book of the Sun in that ruins, or this magic book is not as powerful as the legend, if it can really live forever, why would Ramses II still die?" asked Aven.

"Who knows, maybe he wants to see the world of the dead, or maybe he's been resurrected and somehow just can't show up because of restrictions. Bill said, "Don't underestimate Egyptian magic, I'll take you to the pyramids and tombs in a few days, and you'll know how amazing ancient Egyptian magic really is, and there is a special magic here." ”

Evan nodded hesitantly, he knew very well what the Golden Sutra of the Sun meant.

Like the Book of Abraham that he carried with him, the book was a legendary magical item in its own right.

It is said that it contains the magic of eternal life, the ability to break all curses in the world, and the method of using the power of the sun, the most powerful scorching power of time, and it is because of this book that Ramses II became the greatest pharaoh.

The opposite of the Golden Sutra of the Sun is the Black Sutra of the Undead, which can bring the dead back to life.

Unlike the Golden Sutra of the Sun, where there is no trace at all, many of the mantras in the Black Book of the Dead are carved in hieroglyphs and ancient scripts on the walls of the tombs of the pharaohs and sacrifices, and some are printed on coffins or carved into elaborate stone halls.

Although these spells are incomplete, later generations of wizards have continuously improved the "Black Book of the Dead" after a little archaeological excavation, and based on this, they have developed necromantic magic, a very unpopular and very niche branch of magic, which belongs to a kind of evil black magic.

These spells can eventually bring the dead back into the world, but at a great cost, and Evan has not heard of anyone who has successfully cast them.

Even so, the power of the undead black magic to control the holes and curses is still fearful.

"If you're interested, I'll take you to the Sun Ruins in a few days. "But you have to apply to be explorers first, and we can take a look around the entrance to the ruins." Remember, don't talk about it!"

"Mr. Weasley, the matter in the room ......" Just then, the elf behind the counter reminded in a high-pitched voice.

"That's right, the room thing. Bill said, "When are your two friends coming?"

"Gabrielle says she's here tomorrow morning!" replied Hermione, "She made an appointment with me when she left Hogwarts. ”

"Tomorrow, because of the matter of the Sun Ruins, many wizards have returned to Cairo recently, and if they look for a new place, it will definitely be too late in time, and the level of safety and comfort is not as good as here. Bill turned to look at the elf and said with some embarrassment, "Can you think of a way to get us out of two rooms?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Weasley, we don't have any spare rooms!" the elf replied in a stubborn tone, glancing at Evan and Hermione, "Allow me to take the liberty of saying that I noticed that your friends are children, and our rooms are huge, and it's a waste to use them alone, and if you don't mind, I'd suggest you use one room for two or three of you." ”
