"Hide, the red liquid is black dog blood." Tutankhamun screamed, reminding the people who were still shocked by the sudden death of the mummy.
When everyone heard this, their hearts were in the same place.
It's black dog blood again. When it comes to black dog blood, the mummies immediately think of Jiang Yikang. It's just that eight blood arrows were fired, covering almost the entire stone chamber, and even Pharaohs such as Tutankhamun needed to dodge with all their attention, not to mention other mummies.
Therefore, everyone wanted to ask Jiang Yikang, and the thought could only be fleeting, and then they had to go all out to save their lives.
"Ahh
"Ahh
Two screams.
The two mummies were shot by blood arrows, although the main part of the torso was not shot, one was shot in the arm, and the other was swept to the shoulder by the blood of the black dog, but the blood of the black dog is to the mummy, like strong acid to a human, as long as a drop falls, it immediately travels all over the body until the entire mummy is corroded.
The other red blood arrows that flew out happened to shoot into the mouth of the cobra on the opposite side, and then spewed out from the mouth of the cobra on the opposite side, and the cycle continued.
"Kudar, you immediately hold the key and insert it into the statue." Huney speaks to one of his men, the mummy, who has been standing behind Huni outside the Sphinx and holding the key as he recites the incantation.
Kudar took out the key from his body and asked, "Yes, Pharaoh, it's just that the eight statues have key openings, which one should be inserted?" β
Huni hesitated, "This...... Find any one. β
"Yes." Kudar gritted his teeth, dodging the blood arrows as he charged towards a statue in front of him.
At the same time, Huni reached out and grabbed a mummy beside him and threw it in the direction that Kudar was rushing towards, and the mummy came first and flew in front of Kudar, just in time to block the bloody arrow that was shooting at Kudar.
"Ahh The mummy in the air couldn't dodge it at all, screamed, turned into a pool of blood, and fell to the ground. And it was with such a slow effort, Kudar had already rushed in front of the statue.
"Huney, what are you doing?" Gaa screamed angrily. It turned out that it was a mummified general under Ga'a who was thrown out by Huni just now.
Huni said, "Pharaoh Ga'a, what is the great deal about dying one of your men than dying here all of us." β
Gaa was speechless for a while, and could only swallow this breath.
By this time, Kudar had reached out and inserted the key into the mouth of the key like lightning.
As soon as the key is inserted into the key's mouth, it immediately sounds "Bang!" There was a crisp sound, and then the key automatically spun to the left.
"Squeak, squeak."
As soon as the sound stopped, the eight statues opened their eyes at the same time, and their hands folded in front of their chests spread outward, the scepter in their left hand and the palm of their right hand pointed straight ahead, while the cobra still hovered over their shoulders. (Baidu search update is the fastest and most stable) However, it stopped spitting bloody arrows.
"Success?"
"The mechanism is stopped?"
All the mummies were happy.
Only Jiang Yikang frowned.
Sure enough, the next moment, the key on the statue's chest suddenly flicked outward, and it fell to the ground with a "dang long" sound, and at the same time, the cobra's mouth was opened, the scepter and the palm of the hand were opened again, and three blood arrows were shot out at the same time.
"Ahh Khudar was the closest, and was the first to be sprayed by a bloody arrow, screaming and dying on the spot.
"Ahh
"Ahh
Then, the screams in the field came and went, and this round of spraying killed six mummies. It's just that Tutankhamun and other pharaohs relied on their high mana, jumped left and right, or blocked with magic weapons, and were able to dodge the attack.
Then, after the first round of blood arrows were fired into the statue opposite, they immediately swirled and flew back. "Ahh
"Ahh
Three more mummies died.
At this time, Tutankhamun and the others also felt the pressure, unlike the simple cobra spewing blood arrows just now, at this time, in the small stone room, a total of 24 blood arrows flew around, the space was narrow, there was no way to dodge, and in desperation, they could only use magic weapons to block.
It's just that once the magic weapon is stained with dog blood, it is immediately defiled, loses its mana, and becomes a waste
"Jiang Yikang, what do you want?" Tutankhamun heartily threw away a magic weapon that had just been defiled, and stared angrily at Jiang Yikang, who was "Youzai Youzai" next to him.
I saw Jiang Yikang standing in place like this, when the blood arrow came, as if he was afraid of being dirty by the blood arrow, he covered it with his hand, blocking the blood arrow from his body, and occasionally blood splashed on his body, Jiang Yikang just frowned, with a disgusted expression. It's not like other mummies at all, just a drop can kill you.
Jiang Yikang slapped the blood arrow and said, "This has nothing to do with me, it was your people who touched the mechanism." β
Tutankhamun said angrily: "Why don't you stop it, didn't you do it on purpose?" β
Jiang Yikang shrugged his shoulders, slapped away a flying blood arrow with his hand, and said: "No way, just now I said that the mechanism is very complicated, and it still takes time to calculate, you just want to force me, now I know, what can I do if the mechanism is touched." β
Tutankhamun was stunned, Jiang Yikang did say this just now, and asked, "Then what now?" β
"No way, wait until I slowly calculate and understand." As he spoke, Jiang Yikang raised his hand and pinched his fingers, as if he was really calculating.
Tutankhamun hurriedly said: "When will it be calculated?" β
Jiang Yikang said coldly: "Who knows? If you're in a hurry, you'll come back to me like you did just now. β
Tutankhamun threw away a magic weapon tainted by dog blood again, and said in a gentle tone: "Mr. Jiang, it is true that we misunderstood you just now, and please hurry up and help us solve our difficulties." β
Jiang Yikang was noncommittal and said, "Really? It turns out that I was misunderstood. β
Gaa and the others hurriedly responded, "Yes, it is true that we have misunderstood you. β
Jiang Yikang said: "Okay, I don't care about the villain, even if this article is over." β
Tutankhamun and the others laughed and said, "Yes, yes, please close the mechanism quickly." β
"Okay." Jiang Yikang had just taken two steps, and suddenly stopped, "No, what if I shut down the mechanism and you besiege me again?" β
"No, absolutely not."
"Yes, yes, no."
Tutankhamun was as anxious as an ant in a hot pot at this time, and took out another magic weapon to block the two blood arrows that he couldn't dodge, and then HΓ²u threw the bloody magic weapon to the ground with another burst of pain.
Tutankhamun's net worth is quite rich, and he has more than a dozen magic weapons on his body, and Ga'a, a small pharaoh, only has five or seven magic weapons with him, and he has lost three or five pieces of kung fu for a while.
Therefore, Jiang Yikang walked slowly and leisurely, and spoke slowly and leisurely, which made all the pharaohs constantly shout and curse in their hearts, but they couldn't show the slightest expression on their faces, for fear that if they provoked Jiang Yikang, they would deliberately delay again.
Now I can only follow Jiang Yikang and coax him to close the organ, and it is not too late to settle accounts after the autumn.
Who knows, Jiang Yikang stood still in place: "No, there is no basis for what you say, you need to make an oath to me." β
Tutankhamun knew that he could not delay any longer at this time, and immediately said: "Okay, I swear first. I, Tutankhamun, swear hereby that I will never harm the Eastern zombie Jiang Yikang in the Sphinx, and if I violate it, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed. β
Tutankhamun swore together, and the rest of the pharaohs immediately followed suit.
Jiang Yikang smiled and watched the pharaohs finish their oaths, and then nodded: "Okay, since everyone is doing this, then I'll try to close the mechanism." β
After speaking, under the expectant and eager eyes of the pharaohs, he slowly walked towards a statue, and while walking, Jiang Yikang pondered: "The stone room is divided into eight corners, and the gossip symbols appear on each corner, so these eight statues must be built in the form of the Bagua Array, and the Bagua Array is divided, life, injury, Du, Jing, death, surprise, and open." If you break the gossip, you need to "live" in from the east, "rest" out from the southwest, and "open" from the north, and the key to the Sphinx happens to have three. If it's not a coincidence, then it must be so broken. β
Jiang Yikang pondered for a long time, and the plan was decided, took out the key from the starlight ring, raised his hand and inserted it into the keyhole of a statue.
"Squeak, squeak." In the same way, the key spun around automatically, and to the horror of the Pharaohs of Tutankhamun, the key did not pop out and fall off as it had just done, but shrank inward and was sucked into the statue at once.
Then, the already open arms of the eight statues slowly closed and crossed their chests again, only the cobra on its shoulder was still spitting black dog blood, and the three blood arrows turned into one again.
At this time, the Pharaohs of Tutankhamun felt relieved, dodging a stream of blood arrows was still easy for them, and while dodging, they nervously watched Jiang Yikang's next move.
Jiang Yikang walked to the statue that spit out the key just now, bent down to pick up the key that fell on the ground, and was still inserted into the original statue.
"Wait, why are you still stuck in that statue." Kaba shuddered and said, he clearly remembered that it was only after Kudar inserted the key on the statue just now that it turned into three blood arrows, which was why four of his only six magic weapons were destroyed by the blood of the black dog.
Jiang Yikang turned his head, handed the key to Kaba, and said, "What? That statue to be inserted? Here you go, you plug in. β
Kaba waved his hand and stepped back, saying, "No, don't. Or you come, you come. β
Jiang Yikang didn't even turn his head, flicked his backhand, and inserted the key into the statue.
The pharaohs were stunned by the fact that after a rotation of the key, the eight cobras closed their mouths at the same time, and the eight bloody arrows disappeared.
"This ...... Why did Kudar stop the same statue when you stopped it? Huni really couldn't figure it out, and even more regretted the loss of one of his generals.
Jiang Yikang said: "Alas, the calculation process is quite complicated, and it needs to be combined with time, place, and time. β
Jiang Yikang is tricky, but in Tutankhamun's eyes, it is indeed so magical.
Jiang Yikang pointed at Kaba, "Give me the third key." β
Kaba hurriedly took out the key, walked two steps quickly and handed it to Jiang Yikang, Jiang Yikang came to the third statue and inserted the key.
"Boom." The entire stone chamber shuddered again, and the eight statues slowly moved along the walls in two directions.
The pharaohs stood in the center of the stone chamber, gazing uneasily at the eight statues.
"Boom, boom."
The eight statues stopped moving, four stood on the left and four on the right, and where the statues moved away, two stone walls were vacated.
Two lines of text gradually appeared on the two stone walls, and the left line reads: "South of the West Sea, Shore of Quicksand." β
The row on the right reads "After the Red Water, Before the Black Water"
These 16 characters loomed and appeared three times, and then gradually faded away.
Jiang Yikang stared at these 16 words, and his pupils couldn't help but shrink, because these 16 words were the oracle bone characters of the Celestial Empire.
"The south of the West Sea, the shore of quicksand. After the red water, before the black water. β
What does this phrase mean? Jiang Yikang was puzzled.
Jiang Yikang turned his head to look at Tutankhamun and the others, and saw that everyone looked thoughtful, and it seemed that they also saw these 16 words.
Jiang Yikang asked, "What does this mean?" β
Tutankhamun replied, "Hmph, this is the ancient Egyptian script of the gods. β
Jiang Yikang asked, "What do you mean by that?" β
Tutankhamun glanced at Jiang Yikang and said, "The Protoss script is deep and difficult to understand, and I don't know what it means. β
Through Tutankhamun's eyes, Jiang Yikang guessed that Tutankhamun could understand these 16 words, but he didn't understand the meaning of these words.
"Strange, why do they regard the oracle bone script of the Celestial Empire as the character of the Protoss?"
When Jiang Yikang was thinking about it, the words on the stone wall had completely disappeared, and the two stone walls were like gates, opening on the left and right respectively, revealing a black hole gate.
Looking inside the door, there was no light.
Tutankhamun and the others glanced at each other, and at the same time looked at Jiang Yikang: "Mr. Jiang, since the door has been opened, please go first." β
Jiang Yikang shouted: "Why? Why let me go first. Ah, I see, you must be afraid of the danger inside, so let me try first, right? You're a donkey, no, I'm not a donkey...... Either way, you are not angry. Don't forget, you swore an oath just now. β
Tutankhamun turned his face and didn't recognize anyone, and said coldly: "Hmph, we just swore that we wouldn't hurt you, this is not the category of hurting you." Fast forward qΓΉ. β
"Okay, good, even if you are ruthless, you will enter." Jiang Yikang grunted, slowly walked towards the door, and paced into the dark doorway little by little, his figure was swallowed by the darkness and disappeared.
Tutankhamun and the other pharaohs stood outside the door, waiting for the cave to move. For a long time, there was no movement inside the door.
"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang." Pharaoh Ga'a shouted outside the door.
There was not the slightest response from inside the door.
Tutankhamun said, "Gaa, you go in and have a look." β
Gaa replied reluctantly, "Yes." β
Just as Gaa was about to step into the darkness with one foot, Jiang Yikang's heart-rending cry suddenly came from the darkness.
"Ahh
The cry was terrible and terrifying.
