Chapter 16: The Priestess
Xing Jie's heart kept cursing himself, isn't it good to honestly watch bikini beauties on the beach in Mauritius? No matter how bad it is, it's a big deal to go back to China and apologize to that little boss, why come to this ghost place where birds don't stupidly? As the saying goes, people die for money, birds die for food, and the ancients honestly don't deceive me.
It's good now, let's not talk about being trapped here. What strange thing is going to happen to the altar? Will there be dozens of mummified guards popping out of it with a bang, or a bunch of scarabs?
Thinking of the tragic appearance of being about to die in the sea of insects, Xing Jie's goosebumps fell to the ground!
"It is said that grave robbers are in danger, and that is because they can't see the light of day, so they can only sneak around. I am following the top archaeological team, and I am still playing with the big uncovered, so can Mao still encounter such a strange thing? Could it be that there is really no candle lit?" Xing Jie said to himself.
Falling to such an ending now, Zhou Ziyu's heart is also on fire, since he came here, nothing has gone well. Let's not talk about the old men of archaeology here, Xing Jie is also a cook. But he is a rune and a talisman professional, and he is the son of the Qingcheng Mountain Sect! But what is happening now, it is really embarrassing to say it.
Everyone has their own ideas, the professors' eyes are fearful and exploratory, Xing Jie is sad that he can't enjoy 3 million US dollars, Zhou Ziyu is pretending to be unable to be forced but annoyed by the sun, as for that Amy, Amy?
But what happened next was completely unexpected. It's, it's... What happened has nothing to do with the surrounding environment, because it's so sci-fi!
As the altar rose, the light emitted by the runes engraved on it became stronger and stronger. Originally, it was just the light of the orchid, but now it exudes a cold aura.
At the same time, the runes on the temple floor, which had long since stopped, began to glow again, but this time instead of the eerie dark purple light of the previous one, they emitted the same light as the altar.
This is like a temple built by the ancients, and it is clearly a scene that only appears in the science fiction movies of the American imperialists! This is a temple that has been buried for 2,000 years, not a Hollywood studio!
What's even more surprising is that after the altar rises 60 centimeters, the part that appears is no longer a stone, but a translucent crystal that also emits a blue light!
Although it is not completely transparent, it can still be roughly distinguished, and there is a figure in the middle. With years of experience in dueling mosaics, Xing Jie even judged that this was a woman, and she was an extremely bewitching woman!
Xing Jie pushed Professor Clint Kao and asked softly, "Professor, are you sure we are entering a temple from 2,000 years ago?
"I've never been in such a situation. It's simply incredible, the ancient Egyptians basically used the mummified way of handling corpses. It's also the first time I've encountered a way of enclosing people in such substances. Faced with this situation, Professor Clint was already a little confused.
Professor Clint is extremely experienced in the excavation of the tombs of ancient Egyptian emperors, and in many cases, he can make accurate judgments with just a glance. In this regard, apart from the fact that Professors Erickson and Kramer were able to wrestle with him, what he said could be recorded as conclusive.
But this time he was completely confused, first of all, Cleoberlatto VII was just a queen, although she hooked up with super bull gods like Caesar and Anthony before and after, and the power was monstrous. But she was not qualified to build a temple at all, let alone erect her own statue in front of the temple alone.
Second, places like temples are generally self-proclaimed gods, with some gold ornaments at most, and some self-boasting life events engraved on the wall. But here not only do you have all the compound runes of the ancient Egyptian imperial tombs, but also contain the powerful spells arranged by the top scholars of the ancient Roman Empire and the Han Empire of China!
In fact, these are all understandable, but a beautiful female boss with monstrous power is dying, and she wants to make her own affairs a little more beautiful. They are all in the circle of leaders of mixed countries, and it is understandable that they will follow their words and send troops to the east to find Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty for help.
Although Egypt had fallen at that time, her lover was awesome, Caesar, Anthony, which one is not the eldest of God and my second child?
Now it's good that I've completely made something far beyond people's comprehension. What does this make these old pedants who have been mixed in the field of historiography all their lives think?
"Professor Clint Kao, now that I think these are unpractical things, who knows if the crystal is Cleopatra? I think the most important thing now is what to do next?" Xing Jie asked a little anxiously.
Unexpectedly, Professor Kramer on the side smiled and patted Xing Jie's shoulder and said, "Jie, take it easy." In my judgment, we don't necessarily have to have things. It's not that I'm comforting you, but you'll understand when you think about it.
You found this place, right, why did we come to dig this temple? Is it just a temple? No, of course not, because it's a marked existence.
You know, Aziz has a deeper understanding of your argument, which is that the bronze scroll is not complete, and may only be a part. But in this part, not only this temple is marked, but the burial places of other scrolls are also marked on it! Do you think that the ancients would have marked a place of mortality?"
Well, this makes a lot of sense, and while it doesn't do much for the current situation, it's very comforting.
Since these old pedants don't care about life and death, let's think they're watching a science fiction movie, otherwise what else can they do?
Not only can you watch, but what else can you do?
Compared with Xing Jie's heartlessness, Zhou Ziyu took out a notebook and kept outlining the runes on the altar, including those on the ground.
"You are really a good student who works hard, your father will definitely be proud of you!" Xing Jie glanced at Zhou Ziyu, then pursed his lips and said secretly.
However, no one noticed that Amy, who had fainted to the ground, had opened her eyes slightly, and closed her eyes again after hearing the conversation between Xing Jie and the professor.
The situation took a new turn, and when the altar finally stopped rising, the crystal that radiated a blue glow began to gradually become transparent.
The ancient Egyptian tradition is vertically parted with shoulder-length black hair and brown skin. Although it is not an inch, but the whole body is painted with all kinds of charms! Although they are far apart, as long as they are not blind, they cannot deny that the woman inside is a super beauty.
"Damn! Xing Jie watched his eyebrows fly, but this sentence could only be said in his heart, if he really wanted to say it in public, he would definitely be despised to death by these old pedants.
As the crystal became transparent, the light emitted by the runes on the altar was also more intense, even reaching the level of an LED searchlight, and Miller, who had already died, gradually floated in this light.
"The crystal doesn't seem to be becoming transparent, it's fading away. Zhou Ziyu didn't know when he stopped, looked at the woman intently, and his eyes gradually narrowed, and a little cold light overflowed from time to time.
"Could it be that this woman is coming out?" Xing Jie felt a little bitter in his mouth, and he still had the idea of looking at welfare just now, and he didn't know where to throw it away.
I grabbed the scepter with great achievements, and I had a big fight if I didn't agree with him.
But what happened next was even more unexpected than everyone expected, when the crystal was all gone, the woman slowly stretched her body, and suspended in the air with the altar in a standing position at the same time.
"She's a priest, and a high priest of quite high status! The kind of golden rune that only the High Priest in charge of the Book of the Dead is qualified to draw!, but why is there no record of this person in history?" exclaimed Professor Erikson.
No one answered him, for all eyes were fixed on the woman. The people present were all men, and they exclaimed at the same time for the existence of the woman in front of him, who didn't know if it was a woman or a female ghost.
Sinking fish and geese, closing the moon and embarrassing flowers, captivating the city and the country, and overwhelming the crowd, the words of praise that all women crave were said by Xing Jie and others without hesitation.
This woman is also responsible for these praises, and even with her eyes closed, endless pride still emanates from her. Yes, not temptation, but arrogance, and arrogance!
However, on the ** that made all men crazy, there was a wound of about ten centimeters, and through the wound, it faintly emitted a bright red light!
This red light was very familiar to everyone present, and it was exactly the same as the light emitted by the rubies on the altar before!
Could it be?
Xing Jie's hand trembled, and the ruby that he had been playing with fell to the ground. Above the silent main hall, the crisp sound of karaoke shook people's hearts.
Xing Jie's imagination is terrifying, digging out his lungs and digging out his heart, this kind of ancient Chinese punishment can also be said to be a top-level existence. Could it be that it is going to be reproduced here?
Xing Jie believes that everyone who sees the red light, if they think about it a little, will know what those rubies were in the original. But it's so good that I can't die, and what I unconsciously got turned out to be such a thing!
