Chapter 392: Three Thousand Years Ago
Lin Baiyu didn't care about Jonathan's behavior, and took out four talismans from the space and gave them to Evelyn: "This is a talisman, and it can be carried on the body to ensure that it will not be eroded by the curse, and it can also resist the attack of ghosts." ”
When Jonathan heard this, he immediately snatched one from his sister's hand. Evelyn rolled her eyes and split the other two between Richard and Kevin. The two laughed at this, they didn't think that a little yellow paper would do much. Kevin threw it away, and Richard, under Evelyn's gaze, had to carefully put the paper note in his jacket pocket.
The paper note opened, Jonathan and Evelyn, the two siblings, were very happy to accept Lin Baiyu into their team, Richard and Kevin were just employees, and the employers accepted it, so why should they object to being disgusted.
The five men took a Wrangler to Hamneputra, and along the way, in addition to eating a lot of wind and sand, they successfully reached the desert suspected of being Hamneputra. However, when the news leaked, when they arrived at their destination, they found that it was not only the five of them who had come to Hamneputra, but also several expeditions. In particular, an expedition team organized by all Citi people, with very advanced detection and excavation devices, and the most advanced weapons, the other expeditions were greedy and did not dare to provoke them.
Also thanks to the advanced detection equipment of the Citigroup expedition, the entrance to Hamneputra was soon detected.
"These damn Citi people." Jonathan looked at the Citigroup expedition team that walked into the entrance first, and said hatefully. The huge amount of jewelry in Hamneputra is going to be taken by these Citi people first.
"Jonathan, don't scold us too." Evelyn reminded her brother that the two of them were also from Citigroup.
"Oh, Evelyn, although we have lived in Citigroup for more than ten years, we are not Citigroupers, we are authentic corrupt people." Jonathan said.
"But we're Citi people." Kevin said, "Man, do you want a duel?" ”
Jonathan rolled his eyes: "Do you have white gloves?" ”
Lin Baiyu spoke: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with being the last one to go in, you must know that this kind of place is full of danger and opportunity." It doesn't have to be a jewel to get in the first place, maybe it's a scarab. ”
"What is a scarab?" Kevin's head leaned into Lin Baiyu's ear and asked.
Lin Baiyu pointed his finger at Kevin's head and pushed him away, and replied, "The scarab beetle is the shell lang." ”
"Oh God, such disgusting things, how can they be in the holy places of Egyptian legend?"
Evelyn began to show off her knowledge of ancient Egypt: "The people of ancient Egypt used this beetle as a totem, and when the pharaoh died, his heart would be cut out and replaced with a stone covered with scarabs. Legend has it that the scarab beetle was the outer guardian of the Pharaoh's Graveyard and would eat the thieves who entered the Pharaoh's Graveyard. ”
"Cannibalism?" Richard was surprised, "Can bugs eat people?" ”
"Of course, they will burrow into the human body, from the inside out, and eat the human until only a skeleton of bones and a human skin remains."
"God, don't talk about it, I'm getting goosebumps when I talk about it." Kevin rubbed his arm, "Made, I hate bugs the most, can I apply to quit?" ”
Evelyn smiled, "What do you say?" ”
"Okay, okay, when I didn't say it." Kevin said, "If I knew there would be bugs, I should have brought the flamethrower." ”
Lin Baiyu spoke: "The scarab beetle has lived in the Pharaoh's cemetery for thousands of years, and it has absorbed enough yin qi in the cemetery, so I am afraid that it will not be afraid of ordinary flames. ”
"And what kind of flames are they afraid of?" Kevin asked.
"Three flavors are really hot." Lin Baiyu replied in Huaxia.
"Excuse me, what flames do you say?" The four asked in unison.
"It's a very hot flame."
As he spoke, the rest of the expedition entered the entrance. The five men gathered their gear and followed into Hamneputra.
As soon as he entered, Jonathan shuddered: "Oh my God, the temperature inside here is really low enough, compared to the outside, it's just the difference between winter and summer." ”
Lin Baiyu said: "The yin qi in the tomb is heavy, and the temperature is naturally low, not to mention this kind of tomb that has not seen the light of day for thousands of years. ”
"Dear Nora, you always say that yin qi is yin, what is yin?" Evelyn asked with a wink of big pretty eyes, the coat that Richard had just taken off.
"Yin Qi ......" Lin Baiyu couldn't explain clearly to a few foreigners, so she simply said, "Yin Qi is equivalent to dead energy." ”
"Oh." The four foreigners made a sudden realization, but in fact, they still didn't understand.
"Doesn't it say that there is a lot of gold and jewelry? How is it just a stone passage with nothing? Kevin looked around disappointed.
"It's just the outermost part of the world, and of course there's nothing." Evelyn said, "Why are you so impatient?" Learn from Richard. ”
Kevin smiled: "In your eyes, Richard is good at everything." ”
Evelyn was unashamed: "Of course. ”
Walking through this passage, the five of them came to a stone gate. The stone gate has been blown open by explosives and can be passed through.
"These damn Bannermen are so violent, if there are remnants of ancient monuments on the other side of the stone gate, aren't they afraid of being blown up by them?" As an archaeologist, Evelyn is furious at the actions of the Citimen.
Richard and Kevin saw the clue: "Those Yankees should not be archaeologists, they are probably tomb robbers who came after hearing the news and wanted to make a fortune." ”
"God forbid!" Evelyn was anxious, "Let's hurry up and catch up, lest they destroy more monuments." ”
The group quickened into the stone gate, which on the other side was also a passageway, and unlike the previous passage that was empty and empty, the walls of this passage were carved with elaborate frescoes and reliefs, some of which were inlaid with gold leaf and precious stones.
Kevin walked straight over to a relief and took out the gem that he was about to pry into the door.
Evelyn yelled, "You bastard, stop me!" ”
“hy? It's a gem, don't you see your brother is also prying? Kevin pouted.
Evelyn looked back and almost fainted, her money-obsessed brother was doing the same thing as Kevin.
"Jonathan!" Evelyn had barely screamed when she was interrupted by footsteps from far and near, and all the people who had advanced them in the mausoleum ran back. Richard and the others were shocked and hurriedly gathered together. Kevin grabbed one of them and asked, "What are you running for?" ”
The man gasped for breath and said, "Bugs, a lot of bugs, bugs that want to eat people." ”
After speaking, while Kevin was surprised, he broke free of Kevin's hand and fled quickly.
"He said that the bug should be a scarab, and we will never be able to deal with it." Evelyn said.
"What are you doing standing stupidly? Run! Richard took Evelyn's arm and ran.
Kevin wanted to learn from Richard to pull Lin Baiyu's arm, but unfortunately Lin Baiyu didn't give him a chance and ran away a long time ago. Jonathan looked at him with a smile and handed his arm forward: "Why don't I lend you my arm to pull?" ”
Kevin stuck out his tongue and licked his lips: "Okay, I'm a double anyway, and we can have a shot when we get back to Cairo." ”
Jonathan's goosebumps came out, and he turned around and ran, and it was Kevin's turn to laugh.
Everyone thought that as long as they ran out of the exit, they would be able to get out of danger, who knew that there was also a bunch of scarabs at the exit, so people could not get close at all, and everyone could only run towards the other side of the passage.
Lin Baiyu's team ran with another team, all the people in this team were real archaeologists, and their physical strength was not as good as those mercenary tomb robbers, and they fell in the end, just in the same echelon as Lin Baiyu's five people, along the way, thanks to Lin Baiyu's Kevin and Jonathan's shots, they were not left behind and eaten by scarabs.
"There's another stone gate ahead, which of you has a bomb?" Richard asked, gasping.
The members of the scholar team shook their heads together, they were archaeologists, how could they bring such a destructive thing.
"That's not going to be easy, we have no way to escape." Richard stopped and pulled out the pistol on his waist, "I can only fight hard." ”
"God, a pistol can't kill a scarab at all, and there are so many of them." A scholar said.
Kevin snorted, "Are you just waiting to die?" ”
Evelyn ran to the stone gate and groped up and down: "There must be a mechanism to open the door, and when you find the mechanism, you will be able to open the stone door." ”
When other scholars heard this, they stepped forward to help. Kevin and Richard stood in front of everyone with guns.
"It's too late." Richard was a little desperate, they had already seen an army of scarabs like golden waves, about to rush in front of them in the blink of an eye.
Suddenly, a slender figure appeared in front of them.
"God, Nora, what do you do? Stand back. Kevin wanted to step forward and drag Lin Baiyu, but saw Lin Baiyu throw out a few familiar pieces of yellow paper, muttering words he didn't understand, and his hands moved quickly, so fast that he could only see the afterimage.
"The edict of the dragon god, the god of fire Zhu Rong borrows the law and punishes the evil!"
I saw that the yellow paper spontaneously combusted without fire, and suddenly turned into several large fireballs the size of basins, and smashed into the pile of insects, and the scarab beetles, who were not afraid of flames and bullets, were burned to ashes by this fire.
Everyone was dumbfounded. What do they see? Is this a collective hallucination, or is it a deity?
"Oh, what do I see? Is this witchcraft? One scholar exclaimed.
"No, no, no, this is Huaxia's Taoism." Evelyn sighed, "It turns out that Nora is telling the truth, she is so powerful!" ”
Kevin shrunk his neck and whispered to Richard, "Brother, it's good that I didn't get into her." O witch of China! I heard that Chinese women attach great importance to feelings, and they are all based on the premise of marriage. With my merry character, I will definitely be repaired by her miserably. ”
