Chapter 185: Lost in the Tunnel
.lā
"Look, there's a door over there. Alan pointed to a small doorway.
"Maybe they're inside the door, and they're silent to scare us. Ron said expectantly, "Maybe it's George's attention." ”
That sounded reasonable, and the three of them walked in the direction of the doorway, and the girl in white followed closely behind Allen.
"Really, Bill insisted we were going to stick together, and now they're making such a joke!" Ron was annoyed.
Alan didn't answer, he preferred that Ron's guess was true, that the three of them were left on the platform as a joke.
Ron was the first to drill through the doorway, frozen in place.
Alan followed, and behind the door was a long, curving tunnel with no sign of anyone.
"Mom, Dad, where are you?" Rhon's terrified voice echoed loudly through the tunnels.
But no one answered him.
"Hey, where are you?" Ron put his hands to his lips and made a trumpet, shouting echoing through the tunnel.
Still no one answered....
"Maybe they're just around the corner, they must be hiding, waiting to see what we do. Ron comforted Allen, and comforted himself.
But no one answered him, and Alan illuminated the walls of the tunnel with his wand, staring at the murals on the walls.
"Well, I know, this must be another clumsy trick by George to scare me. ”
Seeing that Eren ignored him, Ron explained to the girl in white.
"No!" the girl in white quickly braided her long hair into a braid, revealing her delicate features.
Ron was almost fascinated as he watched her nimble white fingers weave through her blonde hair.
It wasn't until she finished her movements, tilting her head and looking at Ron suspiciously, that Ron came to his senses.
"Hey, what are you talking about?" Ron asked, almost forgetting what he had said earlier.
"It's not a prank. Also, I'm not called 'Hey', I'm called Nancy. Nancy frowned disapprovingly.
"Ah, Nancy, good name!" Ron praised.
"Nancy is right, we're really lost. Alan ended his observation and walked over.
"What did you find?" Ron asked curiously.
"I think we're in a cemetery that no one has ever set foot in. Alan replied.
"Ha, that's great! if we go out, we'll probably be rewarded with a lot of gold gallons!" Ron clapped his hands excitedly.
"You can go out first!" said Nancy disdainfully.
Ron ignored Nancy, followed Allen's example, cast a fluorescent spell, and went to observe the walls of the tunnel.
"Is this a new type of flashlight? It's too long!" Nancy looked curiously at Ron's wand and leaned over.
Alan continued to explore the tunnel.
The walls of the tomb are carved with many ancient murals and ancient Egyptian scripts.
The layout of these murals is clear and bright, and the content is also very rich.
There are farmers working in the fields, harvesters carrying grain on their shoulders, hunters with bows and arrows, and rowing races on the river.
But there are some murals that are puzzling, such as people who look like butchers, people who dance, people who hold a bundle of cloth.
What are these people doing? They're behaving in a weird way.
The most striking is a figure painting in which a man and a woman face east, with the man in the front, with a majestic and stouting figure, and the woman in the back, with a serene expression and a plump body.
In their hands they all carried a thick cane with precious stones carved into it.
Alan has some speculation in this painting, maybe this is the wand of an ancient Egyptian wizard?
The frescoes have been preserved for thousands of years, but Alan is unbelievable.
But at the same time, he confirmed that it had not been set foot in yet.
Otherwise, these beautiful murals must have ceased to exist long ago.
"It's incredible! these murals are so beautiful!" Ron sighed as he caught up with Alan.
Nancy followed him, trotting all the way.
Before they knew it, Alan and the others had walked a long way along the tunnel that stretched to the right.
The floor began to slope upwards, and the air was very dry and smelled of mold.
"It's so exciting!" Nancy said as she turned a corner.
Alan felt the need to reacquaint herself with the girl who had been screaming in fear before.
"Sapphires, rubies, emeralds...... Maybe I might be able to wear the jeweled crown worn by an ancient Egyptian princess!" Nancy muttered quietly.
"Alan, did you say there would be a mummy in the burial chamber?" Ron was more interested in the mummy.
"Of course there is! Since this burial chamber has not yet been discovered, there must be mummies. Alan replied in the affirmative.
"Do you only have — mummy in your head?" Nancy grimaced in disgust.
"Well, after all, we're in an ancient Egyptian pyramid!" Ron retorted.
"There's probably millions of pounds of jewellery in this tomb," Nancy reproached Ron, "and you're thinking of a horrible mummy!"
"What do you Muggle know!" Ron retorted angrily.
"Muggles? What kind of nonsense is this? You're a Muggle. Nancy was furious, too, thinking that Ron was scolding her in words she didn't understand.
"I thought, don't get too happy just yet. Vigilance is necessary at all times. Ron was right, such a burial chamber, mummies are bound to exist, and there may be other unknown dangers. Ai said wisely.
At this time, Alan heard a voice and stopped.
"Did you hear anything?" asked Allen.
"Nope. Ron and Nancy looked confused in unison.
Alan listened carefully.
But the voice was gone.
"Did I hear me wrong?"
Eren gripped his wand and walked back to the tunnel.
They turned the corner. The tunnels were getting narrower and narrower, and the walls on either side seemed to be pressing down on them.
The ground is harder and there is less sand.
In the dim light, Alan noticed two forks in the tunnel, and he stopped.
"Which way shall we go?" Ron wondered.
Alan ran into the tunnel on the left, using the light from his wand to quickly illuminate the walls on either side.
Then he quickly stepped out and stepped into the tunnel on the right.
Ron and Nancy stupidly followed behind Allen, for some reason.
"The mural in the tunnel on the left is a picture of Muggle life, and the tunnel on the right is a painting of wizards. Alan explained softly.
"We are wizards and should go to the right. ”
Alan's reasons are strong, but also simple and crude.
Authentic labyrinth!
There may be hundreds or thousands of tunnels in the pyramid, and no one except the designer can tell which one to take!
