"What's wrong? Che Li~? ”

Ye Xiaohan saw Su Cheli exclaimed in surprise facing the mural on the wall, and couldn't help but look curiously, but found that he could only read the meaning of those sentences and could not understand the overall meaning, so he could only turn his head and ask Su Cheli with a puzzled face.

Su Cheli took a deep breath, stretched out his hand and pointed to the murals painted with various human shapes near the side of the passage, and slowly explained:

"Xiao Han~, these murals in front of us are all 'narrative' murals drawn in chronological order, and the murals located on the side near the passage are the starting point of the whole 'story'. Now, let me explain to you what kind of 'story' it is. ”

"First of all, this first fresco depicts the courtiers worshipping the Pharaoh, and sitting on the throne in the center of the hall is probably Tutankhamun, the penultimate pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt."

Ye Xiaohan looked carefully and found that this mural was indeed as Su Cheli said, with many people wearing white round trousers on the lower body, **** on the upper body and various accessories, and wearing a very ancient Egyptian style. In front of them sat a young boy dressed in sumptuous costumes, wearing a turban and holding a white dusty scepter in his left hand and a sleek-headed scepter in his right, his short stature contrasting with the kneeling courtiers below.

After Ye Xiaohan saw the image of the pharaoh, he couldn't help but ask Su Cheli again in confusion:

"Huh? How is this pharaoh so young? He's still a kid, isn't he? ”

"He's a kid indeed."

Su Che pointed to the young boy sitting on the throne, turned his head to Ye Xiaohan and continued to explain:

"Tutankhamun succeeded to the throne quite early, when he was nine years old, he became the supreme ruler of all of Egypt, the pharaoh, which is rare in the history of ancient Egypt, so I was able to identify him very quickly when I combined it with other characteristics. And now—"

Su Cheli moved his finger to the next mural, which was completely different from the previous one, depicting many ancient Egyptians lying on the ground, all with yellow faces and thin muscles, it was simply a tragic scene like a hellish Shura.

"And now this mural depicts Tutankhamun's power after he came to power, he imposed **** for his own pleasure, imposed heavy taxes, and eventually led to a large number of poor and starving people in ancient Egypt, and the scene of criminal riots."

As he spoke, Su Cheli pointed to the next mural again, and continued to explain to Ye Xiaohan: "In the end, Tutankhamun's **** behavior triggered a huge coup d'état, and this mural records the coup d'état named 'Swallowing Meng'. ”

Ye Xiaohan followed Su Cheli's gaze and found that the next mural depicted several people with weapons, surrounding the young pharaoh in the first picture, Tutankhamun.

However, Tutankhamun on the mural this time seems to be much older, having completely changed from a young boy to a young man, and it seems that it must have been some time since he came to power.

"Tutankhamun seems to be a lot older, huh?"

Ye Xiaohan asked curiously.

Su Cheli nodded, affirming Ye Xiaohan's guess:

"That's right, in the year of the coup, Tutankhamun was 19 years old, and it has been ten years since he executed **** - because the pharaohs of ancient Egypt had extremely huge powers, and they could even say 'follow the law', so the rebels waited for many years to plan this coup, so that they waited for Tutankhamun to break out when he was 19 years old."

At this time, Ye Xiaohan also noticed a line of ancient Egyptian characters engraved under the mural-

When the supreme ruler of Egypt, Tutankhamun, was nineteen years old, the prime minister, Itnut Ayi?? A coup d'état with the Maurius family succeeded in expelling Tutankhamun from the throne of Pharaoh, but due to folklore that the Pharaohs were all sons of the god Ra, they did not kill Tutankhamun in the end, but simply exiled him to Lower Egypt.

"Huh~? Tutankhamun was not killed, but only exiled! Also, What is 'Lower Egypt'? ”

After reading this ancient Egyptian text, Ye Xiaohan naturally had doubts about the 'Lower Egypt' mentioned in the end, after all, there is only a distinction between 'Egypt' and 'Ancient Egypt' in her concept, so her eyes once again glanced at the 'humanoid history book' - Su Cheli.

Su Cheli naturally did not disappoint Ye Xiaohan, a lovely and beautiful girl, and after seeing Ye Xiaohan's expectant gaze, he directly explained:

"Ancient Egypt was divided into two parts, Upper Egypt and Lower Egypt, and its unification was completed around 3100 B.C. under the leadership of Pharaoh Menes. It was about 1,700 years earlier than the Eighteenth Dynasty of Ancient Egypt, in which Tutankhamun lived. In other words, Tutankhamun lived around 1300 BC, the era of the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt. ”

Then, Su Cheli stretched out his hand and pointed to the ancient Egyptian characters under the mural, and asked Ye Xiaohan with a slightly solemn expression:

"Xiaohan, you should have seen it too, right? That the Maurius family......."

Ye Xiaohan nodded vigorously and responded, "That Morlius family should be the Moratti family, right?" It was Angelia's family, and it was because of this rebellion that they suffered from Tutankhamun's curse, so much so that they eventually had to move overseas in order to reduce the power of the curse. ”

"That's right, and there's more to it than that—"

Su Cheli agreed with Ye Xiaohan's speculation, and at the same time added:

"After Tutankhamun was banished to Lower Egypt, because of his inner reluctance and hatred, he finally chose to embark on a very terrible path - 'Ritual of Sacrifice to the Gods'!"

Su Cheli's expression became solemn, and he stretched out his hand to point to the next mural, and Ye Xiaohan looked in the direction that Su Cheli was pointing and found the scene depicted on this mural-

Tutankhamun, dressed in white robes, lay in a coffin with mysterious patterns engraved on the coffin and on the ground around it, as if it were some kind of obscure and strange formation.

At the same time, Tutankhamun was surrounded by masked men dressed as priests, who knelt on the ground and made strange gestures towards Tutankhamun.

"This ..... Is this a 'ritual of worshipping the gods'? Do you say ......"

Ye Xiaohan seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said to Su Cheli.

And Su Cheli nodded affirmatively, and said in a deep voice:

"That's right, the 'ritual of worshipping the gods' on this mural is probably similar to the 'Ritual of the Feathered Serpent' we encountered in the Mayan land. According to the mural, once Tutankhamun completes the 'ritual of worshipping the gods', it will attract a terrifying underworld deity, 'Anubis', to possess Tutankhamun's body! ”

"'Anubis' is an underworld deity who symbolizes death and judgment, and his image is the same as that of a jackal-headed human being! In addition, his common name is also 'the jackal god', so ......."

"The jackal is the representative of 'Anubis'!!"

Ye Xiaohan's mind suddenly exploded when she heard this, she had seen a lot of things by following Su Cheli along the way, so she naturally understood what this meant-

"Jackal..... Jackal Pyramid~! Che Li, do you mean that we ......?"

Su Cheli nodded solemnly and explained:

"That's right, the Pyramid of the Jackal itself is a symbol of the underworld god 'Anubis'! And before, when we opened the Pyramid of the Jackal, the thin line that shot out from the center of the stone wheel of the disc was aimed at Sirius, and the star represented by 'Anubis' was also Sirius! ”

"In addition, in ancient Egyptian culture, the triangle itself had the meaning of representing Sirius, so the shape of the pyramid of the jackal is an eerie triangle rather than a quadrangular base!!"

After speaking, Su Cheli exhaled deeply, and then began to explain the meaning of 'Anubis' to Ye Xiaohan-

"It is rumored that Anubis, a jackal-headed man, will guide the deceased to the 'underworld', and before the deceased can reach the 'underworld', they must pass through the 'place of judgment' - in the place of judgment, Anubis will take out the heart of the deceased and place it at one end of the 'judgment table', and at the other end of the 'judgment table' is the feathers of 'Mart'."

"Among them, 'Matt' is the goddess who symbolizes order, so her feathers represent morality and ethics, and the 'scale of judgment' itself represents 'fairness', so the combination of the two forms a 'judgment' for the dead!"

"When Anubis placed the heart of the deceased on the 'scale of judgment', if the heart weighs the same as the feather and the 'scale of judgment' is level, it means that the deceased belongs to a person of pure heart, and then he can ascend to the 'underworld' and enjoy a good life. But if the heart is heavier than a feather and the end of the 'scale of judgment' falls out of balance, then it means that the deceased is a guilty person and will be thrown into 'hell' to be eaten by the devil. ”

(In ancient Egyptian conceptions, 'underworld' and 'hell' were not the same place.)

As he spoke, Su Cheli's expression became more and more solemn and serious, and he said in a low voice:

"Therefore, if 'Anubis,' who represents 'judgment,' possessed Tutankhamun and reappeared on earth, then he would faithfully carry out his 'duty' to bring about a 'judgment' on the Egyptians who are currently alive on earth, with the good going to 'the underworld' and the evil to 'hell,' and finally ........."

"In the end, there will be no more 'living people' in this world!"

Su Cheli explained the ancient Egyptian characters under the mural that were almost like 'apocalyptic prophecies', and at the same time, he stretched out his hand to point to the next picture and continued to narrate to Ye Xiaohan:

"Fortunately, not all of them are crazy, even Tutankhamun's relatives have people who are still sane, so they finally chose to mutiny and stopped Tutankhamun in a pinch—"

Ye Xiaohan looked at the next mural and found that this mural depicted a group of black-robed people rushing into the hall where the 'ritual of worshipping the gods' was performed, killing the white-clothed priests kneeling on the ground one by one with blades in hand, and at the same time, a black-robed man with a black scarf wrapped around his head held a golden dagger and stabbed it into the heart of Tutankhamun lying in the coffin.

"These sane Tutan relatives, after praying for the blessing of another god of the underworld, 'Osiris', succeeded in using the 'Dagger of Osiris' to kill Tutankhamun, who was transforming into 'Anubis'. However, since the 'ritual of worshipping the gods' was already halfway through, Tutankhamun himself was already a demigod and belonged to half of Anubis, so he could not be truly destroyed on a physical level - that is, Tutankhamun was only 'suspended animation', he ..... No, it should be called Him, who already has the property of being able to 'resurrect' himself. ”

While explaining the meaning of the mural, Su Cheli pointed to Tutankhamun, who had 'died' in the mural's coffin, and continued:

"Therefore, the High Priest who prayed to 'Osiris' made a prophecy that Tutankhamun would re-conceive the heart that had been pierced by the 'Dagger of Blessing of Osiris' after a thousand years, and complete the rebirth from the 'Underworld'! At that time, 'Anubis' will also take the final step to completely possess Tutankhamun and return to the world to complete his 'judgment of destruction'! ”

"Therefore, the rebellious relatives expelled the other relatives who had surrendered to Tutankhamun, and in order to avoid Tutankhamun's resurrection, they removed five vital organs from his body and made them into 'ritual jars' which were kept in the hands of the high priest. Of course, this alone is not enough to prevent Tutankhamun's 'resurrection', after all, he has the 'rebirth' trait and is able to regenerate limbs, so-"

Su Cheli moved to the next mural, and this mural depicted groups of people gathered in front of the coffin, and their hands were wrapped with white cloths, as well as some other spices, medicines, and other things, as for the person lying in the coffin, it was Tutankhamun, and half of his body was obviously wrapped in white cloth.

"So, the rebellious kinship chose to make 'mummies' to stop Tutankhamun's resurrection!"

Ye Xiaohan recalled his previous experience in the ceiling passage, and suddenly exclaimed as if he had realized it.

Su Cheli nodded and affirmatively agreed: "That's right, the 'mummy' production process and the last inexplicable sentence we saw on the mural in the 'Zenith Passage' before-

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

These are the frescoes and the last words of the kinship, because they used a modified 'sealing technique' to prevent Tutankhamun's resurrection! ”

As he spoke, Su Cheli had a look of amazement on his face, looked at the mural and muttered:

"The modified 'sealing technique' is like a hacker maliciously tampering with the 'password', in order to make it impossible for the original owner to log in to his 'account'!"
