Earth Fire Chapter 18 Danger by Mistake

The cultural relics restored by the teams in the preliminary round are not particularly difficult, and the longest restoration time limit given is one and a half days, after the preliminaries, the teams that advance will rest for three days, and the unsuccessful teams will rest for one day and then play the rematch.

During the three days of rest, Lin Hainan planned to go to the ancient Egyptian area to investigate. On the first day of entering the Oasis Development Zone, several people only browsed and inspected the ancient Babylonian and ancient Indian regions, and only a cursory tour, without a detailed investigation. During the three days of rest, Lin Hainan decided to go to the ancient Egyptian area for a walk.

When it comes to Egypt, some people think of Cleopatra, but more people think of the pyramids. There are about 80 pyramids in ancient Egypt, starting from the 3rd Dynasty and ending in the 2nd Intermediate Period (the tombs of kings in the New Kingdom were no longer in the form of pyramids, but in the form of rock tombs). They are found on the west bank of the Nile near Memphis.

The pyramid is a symbol of ancient Egyptian civilization and the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancient Egyptian people. However, the construction of the pyramids increased the burden on the people, consumed the manpower and financial resources of the state, exacerbated the class contradictions in the country, and weakened the strength of the absolute monarchy. Both Herodotus and Theodora recorded that the people were angry at the construction of the pyramids, and that there may have even been a popular revolt.

The pyramid is the tomb of the ancient Egyptian kings, and because it resembles the Chinese character "gold", the Chinese call it "pyramid".

The first pyramid in the ancient Egyptian district and the first pyramid in history.

The construction of the pyramids began with Joselle, the first king of the 3rd Dynasty. At that time, he asked the famous architects Imachot and Pu to design a tomb for him, and Imenholt and Pu originally designed and built a huge stone mastaba in Saqqara. But Joselle, Imonhot, and Pu themselves were not satisfied, and felt that they were not majestic enough. So Imenhote and Pu added five smaller mastabas than one layer to it, which became the hierarchical pyramid of Josser, which is still visible, which is 61.2 meters high, 123.3 meters long from east to west at the bottom, and 107.4 meters long from north to south. At the base of the pyramid there are corridors and burial chambers, next to the pyramid there is a sacrificial temple, and the whole complex is enclosed by a wall.

After this pyramid are the three pyramids built during the time of the first king of the 4th Dynasty, Snefru. The first pyramid was a pyramid with a corner pyramid, and the second was found to be too large in the middle of the construction due to design errors, and the angle had to be changed, thus becoming a diamond-shaped pyramid, or curved pyramid. The third is a pyramid with a true pyramid.

"It can be said that the Snefru period was a period of transition from a hierarchical pyramid to a true pyramid pyramid." Yumi carefully recorded in her notebook, read out the textbook-like closing sentence she had written, closed the notebook contentedly, took out her phone and selfie stick, and began to take a selfie.

Looking at Youmi's battle, it won't be enjoyable if you don't take a hundred or so shots. Lin Hainan and Feng Jianfei both silently dodged to the side. Only Xu Jin also followed suit, Yumi let him enter the country, he entered, let him pose and he posed, let him help shoot Xu Jin can shoot seriously.

Today, Yumi is delicious, because I used a new lipstick today, and this color was out of stock, but I asked a few friends to buy it in the end.

Yumi walked over to look at the sample picture in Xu Jin's camera, this shade has a good makeup effect, and the photographic effect is even more unexpected.

"This lipstick is beautiful today." Xu Jin checked the photos in the camera, the person in the photo was wearing a fisherman's hat, combing two big braids, red lips and white teeth, and smiling happily at the camera. Such a smile seems to dispel all gloom, and Yumi's smile has always had such power.

It's rare that even Xu Jin noticed that he used a new lipstick, and Yumi said happily: "New lipstick~"

"New again?"

"What do you mean by 'again'?"

"Can you two get serious about your work?" Feng Jianfei walked over and led Xu Jin to the curved pyramid for photographic recording, Yumi stuck out his tongue, and hid to the side to take a selfie. In a short time, everyone's investigation was over.

On the way back to the rest area, Youmi plugged in the power bank on her mobile phone and started the P picture, Feng Jianfei sighed twice, pointed to Youmi with a serious face, and spread his hands at Lin Hainan and Xu Jin. Lin Hainan and Xu Jin also spread out their hands and shook their heads with a smile.

After eating, back to the residential building, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. They went back to their rooms to sort out the materials, and made an appointment for dinner to conduct an inspection and discussion.

Yumi sorted out the information in his hand, circled the key points and doubts to be talked about in the evening, and looked at the time, it was only three o'clock in the afternoon, and there were still three and a half hours before dinner.

I was going to sleep and saw a pop-up message on WeChat, it turned out that the selfie sent by the circle of friends in the morning attracted many girls to ask for the color number, and there were too many people asking, Youmi turned around and went to the bag to find lipstick, and planned to take a photo and upload it, and reply in a unified manner. But there was no lipstick in the bag, so Yumi searched and searched, and finally poured out all the contents of the bag, but still couldn't find it.

Rummaged through the pockets of the clothes I wore today, and it was still not, Yumi sat on the bed depressedly, afraid that she had fallen into the ancient Egyptian area, and after touching up her makeup, she accidentally dropped it.

Yumi scratched her hair in annoyance, glanced at the time, and at 3:45, gritted her teeth and changed her clothes, and went to the ancient Egyptian quarter. Although he should report to Lin Hainan or Feng Jianfei, and no matter how bad it is, he should also talk to Xu Jin, but if he says it, either he will go again tomorrow or they will accompany him, for the sake of a lipstick, Yumi also feels that he should not work to mobilize the crowd. As long as you come back as soon as possible, there will be no problem. Yumi hurried towards the Ancient Egyptian Quarter.

Ten minutes away, plus a forty-five minute drive, get off the sightseeing bus and head straight for the first pyramid. She only touched up her makeup once today, just as she was about to come out of the first pyramid.

The corridor in the pyramid is a little sloping, and Yumi is now looking at the entrance of the pyramid. There are quite a few teams that come to inspect every day, and they all come in the morning, and it is very likely that they will be picked up by others. Thinking about it like this, Yumi couldn't help but regret a little, he should have broadcast the search in the rest area first.

But now that she had arrived, Yumi searched for the location in her memory, and walked to the end of the passage a little distance from the entrance of the tomb. Yumi turned on the flashlight and looked carefully, and sure enough, she saw her new lipstick, next to the wall behind the statue on the left side of the corridor.

Yumi's lipstick is diamond-shaped, with a tassel decoration hanging on the tail, and I don't know where it was hooked at this time, so I didn't pick it up for a while. Yumi was worried that it would be broken, so she went down to see that there was a small hook on the ground, and it happened to be hooked, so she didn't roll down.

At this moment, Yumi heard a sound of footsteps.

Most of the expeditions were concentrated in the morning, and in the afternoon there were almost no people in the four civilizations, and Yumi looked through the gap between the statue and the wall and was greeted by a man wrapped in an oversized scarf. The scarf wrapped him tightly, revealing only one pair of eyes.

Someone I haven't met.

Yumi read all the information of the contestants, and basically remembered the faces and names, but the person in front of him was so tightly wrapped in this empty pyramid that Yumi suddenly had doubts.

Is it a participant? So why cover your face? If you are not a participant, will you be the master of foreign aid of which team? Yumi remembered what Lin Hainan and Feng Jianfei mentioned yesterday, and some teams may have mysterious masters to help.

Thinking of this, Yumi carefully hid herself and watched the mysterious man walk into the tomb. Yumi muted her phone, and briefly sent a message to Xu Jin, informing her location, and without waiting for Xu Jin's reply, she put away her phone and disappeared close to the tomb.

In the burial chamber, two people stood.

On the left is a man wrapped in a large scarf, and on the right is a middle-aged man in a suit.

The two faced the coffin of the pharaoh, with their backs to Yumi.

"It's interesting that you chose such a place." The man in the suit was the first to speak.

"Hehe," the scarf man chuckled under his breath, his voice was dull and hoarse, as withered as a dying old man, "I want you to see what I want." ”

"Oh?"

"I used to stand in this place, but I lived, and they died. What I want is to live forever – forever. ”

"Hmph." The man in the suit snorted a sneer from his nose, "What about your leader?" Do you know that you have private contact with me? ”

"I won't belong to the Oriental Artifact forever."

Yumi's eyes widened and she covered her mouth in surprise.

"Well, anyway, at the moment our interests are the same. We have no part in your business. Later in the game, there will be a restoration called the 'Linden Tree', which should be what you're looking for. ”

"Bodhi Tree?"

"If you can't repair it, you must be merciful to the men of the Thousand Miles Head Toda Nijira. He is the only one who knows about the Bodhi Tree. ”

"Hehe, that's glad he was spared his life in the desert."

The two people in front of them, the one wrapped in the scarf is the one with the oriental artifact, and the man in the suit is very likely to be the person from the Interstellar Development Group!

"Any other information?" The scarf man asked again.

The man in the suit was a little disdainful and a little impatient: "What you want has been told to you." ”

"Hmph." The Scarfman snorted, and silence fell in the tomb.

Seeing that the conversation was about to end, Yumi stabilized her heartbeat and moved back in small steps, intending to retreat into the corridor first and then run out.

Cautiously took two steps back, his heel touching the raised stone steps on the ground, the stone steps were not high, Yumi was still startled, and his body leaned back due to inertia. In the panic, Yumi tried her best to stabilize her body, but fortunately she didn't fall, and looked at the tomb with palpitations, but the two people inside didn't find it. Just as I wanted to continue to retreat, the phone fell out and made a "pop" sound.

The sound was not loud, and it did not seem to alarm the people in the tomb. Yumi's heart is about to jump out of her throat! Yumi bit her lip hard, breathed steadily, and was just about to pick up her phone when she heard a broken cry from the tomb:

"Who!"

Yumi grabbed her phone violently, turned and ran.
