Chapter 7 Words That Should Not Appear
After three days, the entire hill was largely cleared. Standing at the foot of the mountain, all the people didn't make a sound, including Xing Jie.
How can you say it? A hill of several tens of meters is really not worth mentioning. But the statues tens of meters tall can only be described in the word grandeur.
And Xing Jie only hated himself for not reading much at this time, and for the female statue with a strong Egyptian style in front of him, he found that he could only use the word "lying" to show the shock in his heart!
"Professor, is this statue Weng Zhong of Egypt?" Xing Jie asked.
"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, Weng Zhong's kind of thing can only be used on the mausoleum. The building behind the statue is a temple!, but ......," Professor Aziz said hesitantly.
"But what?" Xing Jie hates most about others half-talking, isn't this the rhythm of forcing people to death?
"Aziz's meaning is very clear, that is, generally speaking, the dynasties of ancient Egypt were dominated by men, so even if a statue of a woman is erected in front of the major temples, a statue of her husband will definitely be erected, and it is in the most honorable position.
But this is an exception, not to mention that there has never been a temple here. Let's just say that there is only this female statue. This is unique in history. Professor Clint Kao explained to Xing Jie with a smile on the side.
Xing Jie said with a smile: "Mr. Clint Kaw, it may be that this is the temple of a female pharaoh, even if I don't know the history of Egypt, I have watched the movie Cleopatra several times, and I am a loyal fan of Elizabeth Taylor." ”
"Hehe, I'm also a fan of Elizabeth, although the movie was not very good, but the scene was really well built. Not to mention that, this Cleopatra VII was the last queen of the Ptolemaic dynasty.
Jay, you must know that the queen and the female pharaoh are completely different. However, from the time listed in the Dead Sea Scrolls, it is basically correct. Because after her death, Egypt became a province of the Roman Empire.
But why did she build a temple here, and then seal it up? Not only did she not have the qualifications, but it was illogical. Professor Clint said with some distress.
"Isn't that easy, why don't we just open the door?" Xing Jie said with a shrug.
"How can it be so simple? We also need to take precautions to prevent damage to the artifacts in the temple. You can take a break for these two days. By the way, the thick porridge you make from many kinds of grains tastes very good, can you make it again?" Professor Clint said with a smile.
"Of course there is no problem, as you wish. Xing Jie said.
It's not Xing Jie filming these foreigners' sycophants, for this kind of god who is still eating and drinking outside at an age, showing respect is also a manifestation of the proper meaning of the state of etiquette, isn't it?
When I'm older, I like to drink some thick porridge, but what's the trouble with making some eight-treasure porridge?
……
I have to say that the US imperialists are really rich, and a few old men gave orders, and all kinds of resources were continuously airlifted from the United States.
Of course, this archaeological team is also getting bigger and bigger, if Aziz is not the person in charge, with his qualifications, he would have been kicked out a long time ago, after all, the experts and scholars who came later are much more senior than him.
As for Xing Jie, it is an exception, after all, he is the discoverer and has this right. And he is very aware of the times, and completely renounces the honor of discoverer. In order to express their gratitude to Xing Jie, several old men jointly guaranteed that his finder reward was also increased from 1% to 2%!
Honor is a fart! Where is the cuteness of the green beautiful knife? Anyway, Xing Jie doesn't plan to develop in this circle, because it's too boring.
Amy and the others in the camp congratulated Xing Jie in advance, although they were jealous of Xing Jie's discovery, but they were also envious of Xing Jie's luck.
At present, the archaeologists of the entire Kiber Quinlan have been requisitioned by those old men, and now not only the Palestinians and Israelis have sent heavy troops, but even the Blackwater Company of the United States has also been involved, and the whole scene can be described as an impregnable wall.
But later facts proved that Xing Jie was really a little simple in thinking about the energy represented by these young people.
However, the entrance to the excavation site has long been surrounded by reporters from all over the world, and all kinds of cameras are like long guns and short cannons. As long as a person comes out of the excavation site, the reporters will flock to the site with a figure comparable to Maradona, which makes Xing Jie look at it with great affection.
Of course, he snuck out from behind, because he had only recovered from the flashing eyes of his eyes after being surrounded the last time.
In the following time, Xing Jie and all the young people took on the role of coolies. Crazy and professional, at this point it seems so harmonious.
Have you ever seen an archaeological excavation that can actually use the Martian survival warehouse in the United States? Not only Xing Jie has never seen it, but even Amy, Davis, and others are also surprised.
Although the tall stone gate was closed at this time, everyone's mood was extremely excited.
It's a temple that has never been opened, and the location is right where the Dead Sea Scrolls are marked, which is a landmark discovery.
So what's inside?
According to Xing Jie's idea, of course, there is a temple full of gold and jewelry. Then he sent it, but he didn't have to think about it to know that it was impossible.
"God forbid, it's best not to have any of those mummies or anything like that. Xing Jie, who has never believed in God, clasped his palms together and chattered, and he didn't know if there was a God, and if there was, he would be angry with Xing Jie!
"Dear Jay, you'd be miserable if Professor Erickson heard that. Professor Aziz said with a smile.
"Yes, if my uncle heard you say that, he would be furious! Besides, this is a temple, how can there be mummies? There will only be sacrificial offerings. Miss Amy chuckled.
Xing Jie turned his head, glanced at them and said, "Dear friends, you all come from rich families, of course you don't know how miserable the life of the toiling masses at the bottom is. I just want to make more money, so it's not too much to ask. ”
Finally, Professor Aziz put his hand on his forehead and said with a wry smile: "Jay, you can earn 2%, but if there are immeasurable historical artifacts inside, you will still have a reward of nearly $3 million for the reward of the discoverer." And it's tax-free. If it's really gold jewelry, there aren't that much. Because the purity of gold from thousands of years ago was not very high!"
Xing Jie didn't say anything, but sat on the ground. What kind of income is not profitable, Xing Jie can't care about it, damn. 3 million US dollars, nearly 20 million yuan? Isn't this suddenly the pinnacle of life?
No one laughed at Xing Jie, because he deserved it!
The heavy stone door was opened, and all the experts and scholars flocked in, but Xing Jie calmed down at this time. There's no need to rush anything, anyway, there will be an extremely detailed list in front of him in the end.
The voice of God that kept coming out of the temple sounded so melodious at this time, comparable to the most beautiful music in the world!
Just as Xing Jie was about to stand up and go to the inside of the temple, his eyes were suddenly attracted by something.
"This can't be! How could there be such a thing here?" Xing Jie exclaimed.
It was on the side of the stone door that had been opened, on the side of the ten-centimeter-thick door. It is engraved with all kinds of bells and whistles, but how does this pattern look so much like the evil charms drawn by the veterans of Qingcheng Mountain? And there are even Chinese characters engraved at the bottom! It seems that it is still a big seal!
It's inconceivable that in an already mysterious temple, you can find an inscription of Chinese characters! It's like when you dig a hominid cave and find an LCD TV hanging on the wall of the cave?
"Professor Aziz, where are you, come out quickly!" Xing Jie couldn't care about anything, and shouted frantically.
Everyone in the temple was stunned, because during this time, Xing Jie, this young man, gave everyone the impression that he was polite, and he had never shouted so disregarded etiquette like today.
"What's wrong?, Jay?" Professor Aziz asked, running over to him.
"What do you see here, why is there Chinese characters in this temple?" Xing Jie said aloud.
I only heard a bang, and the whole scene was chaotic.
Some people who knew something about Chinese characters all gathered around.
Professor Clint grabbed Xing Jie and asked, "How do you know it's Chinese characters?"
"That's the big seal, I don't know anything else, but there's a god character in it, I've seen that word!" Xing Jie said.
Professor Clint pondered for a while, paced back and forth, and when he saw him like this, everyone fell silent, and they all knew that the old man had a bad temper, and no one around him dared to disturb his train of thought at this moment.
"Dima, you should immediately contact Professor Yang Tianhua in China and ask him to make sure that he has time to come. Professor Clint Kao instructed his men.
"Okay professor. With that, the man withdrew.
Professor Clint Kao, who turned around, looked at Xing Jie, his eyes getting brighter and brighter. In the end, he laughed out loud, and Xing Jie, who was laughing, was confused.
After a long time, he stopped, came to Xing Jie's front and said, "Child, you are the luckiest person I have seen over the years, and your luck has made everyone present feel jealous.
But you don't have to worry, no one can take this glory that belongs to you, and you will surely go down in history because of it! Your discovery fills in countless gaps, although I don't know what will happen to us in the later excavations. But the discovery of a side chamber of the temple alone could have rocked the archaeological world.
Not to mention these mysterious Chinese characters that appear here! Here, I sincerely congratulate you, my child. Your father and mother will be proud of you, and your name will be in the history books. ”
Thunderous applause!
With Professor Clintkao's reputation in the archaeological community, it is really a bit incredible that he could say such things to a person like Xing Jie. But the people present at the moment feel that this is very suitable, and they have to admit that this young man named Xing Jie has been too unlucky during this time.
The discovery of the connection between the bronze scroll and the ancient map of the Dead Sea, then the discovery of a temple, and then the discovery of Chinese characters by the gates of this temple, which would not have been possible here, is a source of great luck.
Xing Jie understood that the reason why Professor Clint said this was to protect him. The focus is on luck, which makes people hiding in the dark helpless.
After all, God is not really Xing Jie's father!
