Ye Xiaohan heard Su Cheli's muttering, and asked curiously with a pretty face, "Cheli, how did you find this passage located on the ceiling?" ”

The others immediately focused their eyes on Su Cheli's body, and also waited for Su Cheli's explanation and response with curious expressions.

Seeing this, Su Cheli cleared his throat and began to explain: "Ahem, if I talk about it, I can find that this passage is all thanks to the previous mural and the prompts under the mural, which form a clear indication pointing to the ceiling passage——"

"First of all, the 'Apophis' on the mural is wrapped around a blue ball, which we can understand as the earth. Because in Egyptian mythology, the legend symbolizes the destruction of 'Apophis', who will appear in the sky in the early hours of every day, trying to plunge the whole world into eternal darkness and achieve the goal of destroying the world. At this time, Ra, the supreme god who symbolizes the sun, will rise from the sky to banish Apophis and keep the world safe. ”

"Therefore, the blazing sun on the mural that spews flames at the black serpent symbolizes 'Ra', and the line below the mural hints at the existence of the 'monolith' -

'Apophis' has always faithfully carried out his duty of destruction, destruction, and crushing.

This sentence proves the true face of 'Apophis' in the corridor - 'The Stone'!

Because 'crushing' can only be done by boulders.

In addition, above the 'starting point' of the corridor, the round, smooth chimney-shaped passage is obviously not a road for people, but a road for falling as a 'boulder'!

As for the reason why the whole corridor is a little tilted, it is obviously to allow the 'boulder' to roll down smoothly and generate enough acceleration - and eventually crush all the 'intruders' in its way!

According to this line of thought, since the 'megalith' symbolizes 'Apophis', which represents death, then according to the mural and the jargon, only the supreme god 'Ra', who represents 'life', can save everyone. ”

Speaking of this, Su Cheli's tone paused slightly, then pointed to the ground under his feet, and continued to explain:

"There is a sentence in the jargon about 'pull' -

Only the 'pull' at the zenith can stop the murderer of this atrocity,

So, whether it is the mythical 'Ra' appearing in the sky to stop 'Apophis', or the jargon 'Ra' being at the 'zenith', they all represent the upper - the ceiling!

So, I looked for a pattern on the ceiling that could symbolize 'pulling', and sure enough, I quickly found a round of red sun, and after stabbing it with the sword in my hand, I triggered the mechanism to make the zenith passage visible.

Finally, there are two more lines that are not mentioned –

The sun rises and the sun sets.

Here, the cycle of a day will become a short thirtieth of an hour.

These two lines are very well aligned to suggest the reincarnation of 'Apophis', who appears every day in the early hours of the morning to try to destroy the world.

Then, the performance in the corridor is that every two minutes, there is a terrifying rolling boulder! ——”

"The cycle of one day will become a short two-minute cycle!"

After speaking, Su Cheli exhaled fiercely, and then he got up and said to the people who were looking straight at him:

"Let's go, we've rested enough, it's time to get up and continue our search for the 'Pharaoh's Heart'."

meanwhile

Outside the Pyramid of the Jackal

Bang~!

A sturdy figure fell to the ground fiercely, and the red blood slowly flowed out, gradually staining the sand that had been burned a little hot by the sun, and bringing up bursts of blood vapor that was dazzling red.

Looking closely, the corpse that fell to the ground was dressed in black, wearing sunglasses, and a rather muscular figure was Angelia's black-clothed bodyguard!!

Around this corpse, there was a bodyguard of other black-clad men in the same attire, and among them were several corpses of mysterious people dressed in desert. It seems that there was a tragic fight between them, and maybe even those black-clothed bodyguards 'fought' the guns in their hands until they ran out of ammunition, so they took the initiative to rush forward and start a hand-to-hand battle with these mysterious people, and finally dutifully completed their last mission as bodyguards.

"Report, the enemies stationed outside have all been eliminated, but we have not found the main 'sacrifice', I'm afraid they all went in........"

A hundred meters away from the Pyramid of the Jackal, a man in a black turban dressed as a typical desert Egyptian reported to another majestic middle-aged man on the back of a camel.

This somewhat dignified middle-aged man, with mysterious oil paint patterns painted on both sides of his face, wearing a wrapped black turban, and also wearing typical desert Egyptian costumes, the whole person looked very serious and solemn.

After the majestic middle-aged man heard the report of his subordinates, he glanced at the tragic field that was already strewn with corpses not far away, frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice:

"You mean the 'sacrifices' are all already in? Is it even possible that it has already 'begun'......."

As he spoke, the middle-aged man's already serious face became more solemn, and he turned his head to the other subordinates beside him and shouted:

"Now, the personnel who can continue to fight follow me into the 'Jackal Burial Tower', while the wounded and seriously wounded remain in place, and the medical staff will take care of them, trying to save their precious lives before reinforcements arrive! As for the descendants of our 'royal family'.........."

Obviously, although all of Angelia's black-clad bodyguards died at the hands of this group of mysterious people, they also caused some damage, and judging from the intermittent moaning sound around them, there were not a few injured people in this group of mysterious people, so the middle-aged man said the above words about the wounded recuperating in place.

"Please follow me into the 'Jackal Burial Tower', and use the blood of those with bad intentions to wash and pay tribute to the souls of our departed ancestors, everyone~! Come on~!!! ”

As soon as the words fell, the middle-aged man clamped the camel under the seat and took the lead in rushing to the 'Jackal Pyramid' not far away, and the subordinates behind him who could continue to fight drove the camels under their crotches one after another, and followed the middle-aged man to the 'Jackal Pyramid'-

Shout~!

The middle-aged man flickered past at a very fast speed, and the 'scorpion'-shaped pattern engraved on the back of his right hand shone in the sunlight..........

...............

A moment later,

The other side of the Jackal Pyramid, in a place that the 'Demon Scorpion' organization can't see—

"Whew~...... Hey~? What's going on with those guys? ”

Hinasaki Fukaha raised the binoculars in her hand and looked at the wounded members of the 'Demon Scorpion' organization who were resting in the other direction, and when her eyes saw the rifles beside those members of the 'Demon Scorpion' organization through the telescope, she couldn't help but tighten the silver pistol tied to the crook of her thigh, and after comparing the huge difference in firepower between the two, she chose very wisely-

'Dive in'!

Obviously, if you want to enter the 'Jackal Pyramid', you can only sneak into this way, after all, you are weak and it is impossible to break through head-on. Fortunately, the location of those wounded was not close to the pyramid, and the nearest one of them was nearly a hundred meters away from the entrance of the pyramid, and these people should have been left behind, and the main combatants had already entered the Jackal Pyramid first, so-

They probably wouldn't have thought that at this time, someone would also find this 'Jackal Pyramid' located in the depths of the desert, and plan to sneak in under their noses, right?

Therefore, as long as you are careful, with the help of the cover of yellow sand, you should not be discovered by those wounded who are obviously tired, and you can quietly enter the 'Jackal Pyramid', and then try to find Che Li's senior!

Thinking like this, Hinasaki Fukaha reached out and tightened the "Book of Voynich" in the strap - it was only with the 'induction' given to him by this mysterious book that he was able to cross the endless desert of yellow sand and find this mysterious 'Pyramid of Jackals', and now-

Hinasaki Fukaha slowly put on a robe and trench coat in the Egyptian desert, and then leaned over and quietly walked towards the 'Jackal Pyramid' standing in the desert.

Senior, I'm looking for you~!

.....................

The figures walked in the somewhat narrow passageway, but instead of whale oil lamps on both sides of the passage, there was a lonely mural, and only the light of the flickering flashlight illuminated the path of the crowd.

This group of people is Su Cheli and others.

Previously, they had a lot of effort to climb up to the ceiling passage, so after listening to Su Cheli's explanation of the mechanism, everyone seized the time to rest for a while, and continued to get up and move forward at Su Cheli's suggestion.

At this moment, Su Cheli was still at the front of the team, followed by Ye Xiaohan, and then Angelia and the other three. And Su Cheli walked cautiously in the somewhat narrow passage, while carefully observing the surrounding environment-

The passage was noticeably narrower than the previous hallway with boulders tumbling down - there were only two people at most, and there were no whale oil lamps on the walls on either side. In addition, the ceiling and floor of this passage are an orange-yellow rock wall, and there are no strange murals.

However, on the other hand, the walls on both sides are still depicted with frescoes that narrate ancient Egyptian mythology, and they are also in a 'circular' pattern.

While Su Cheli was walking, he was also carefully observing these 'circular' murals-

The mural depicts a group of people huddled around an ornate coffin, tinkering with something that looks like they're making something like a 'mummy' when viewed by the white bandages wrapped around their hands.

At the same time, the underside of these murals is also engraved with lines of ancient Egyptian script-

When a pious people who believe in the god Ra pass away, they will be purified with the waters of the Nile to ensure the sanctity of their bodies, and at the same time, loyal priests will be responsible for removing the 'messy' and stuffing them with fine things representing the 'afterlife' to ensure that the corpses are full and alive.

Then, the body was sealed and stored in the temple of the great and supreme god, Ra, and prayed.

Finally, on the day of the 'resurrection' forty days later, the corpse is again purified with the water of the Nile and anointed with the contents of the 'afterlife', wrapped in the holy linen that the priests have prayed for forty days, and together with the sincere prayers and incantations of several priests, the 'filth' can be completely dispelled and become the regenerated body of the 'afterlife' to return to the future.

However, we did not expect that this 'sealing technique' would be slightly modified and eventually used in such a place........

"Huh? Is this how the 'mummy' is made? But what does this last sentence mean? ”

Ye Xiaohan also saw the lines of ancient Egyptian characters under the mural, and she asked Su Cheli curiously as she walked slowly.

At this time, Angelia, who was behind the two, also interjected: "Yes, what is the meaning of this last sentence?" Also, what does the mural mean by the 'art of sealing'? Isn't it 'mummification'? ”

And Xiong Jianhua, Qu Wenjin, and Zhu Mengtong, who were at the back of the team, although the three of them did not intervene, they also put their expectant eyes on Su Cheli's body, quietly waiting for his explanation.

Sure enough, Su Cheli lived up to their expectations, and after glancing at the murals on the wall, he slowly explained:

"The term 'mummy' is not the name of the ancient Egyptians, but the name of our later generations. In addition, the ancient Egyptians believed that people would go to the beautiful 'underworld' after death, and after a period of life in the 'underworld', they would still return to the present world for 'resurrection' - at this time, they needed to use the previous corpse, and the 'mummy' was the way they used to preserve the corpse. ”

"In addition, the ancient Egyptians longed for the beauty of the 'underworld' more than the people of any other ancient kingdom, and it can even be said that it reached a pathological level - they would rather live in poverty and sorrow, but also gather a large amount of funeral when they died, in order to ensure their good life in the 'underworld'.

So, if you want to use an analogy -

In the ancient Egyptian concept, the world we live in now is like the online game world in the computer, and the 'underworld' is equivalent to the real world, and our body is the 'account' in the game. And once we die, it is equivalent to the 'offline' of the game - we can't continue the game because of something, but we will 'go online' again after we have dealt with the matter, which is called 'resurrection'.

Therefore, the method of making the 'mummy' is called the 'art of sealing' - it is to preserve the body intact, which you can also understand as the 'password' in the game to ensure the security of the 'account'. ”

"However, about this last sentence........"

Speaking of this, Su Cheli paused and said with some hesitation:

"It stands to reason that the 'Sealing Technique' shouldn't have been changed in any way, right? After all, once the 'Sealing Technique' is changed, it is equivalent to 'changing the password' in the game, which will cause the original owner to be unable to 'log in' at all......."
