Chapter 114: The Mystery of Tutankhamun: Assessment

In the evening, Zhang Lun re-contacted the Egyptian official head of the tomb exploration operation, and fortunately, the other party said that the team was not fully recruited and was willing to give us another chance. So we agreed on a new meeting time, which was tomorrow at noon, at the city hall in Luxor, and when we arrived, we would make the same phone call, and a commissioner would come down to pick us up.

According to Zhang Lun's information, the Egyptian government believes that the day after tomorrow is an auspicious day, and the original plan was to go to the grave on that day, so tomorrow is also our last chance.

"Do you think the person who stole the candle dragon horn and the mysterious person who took you to the funeral home are the same person?" I asked Zhang Lun.

"Theoretically not." Zhang Lun shook his head, "If he wants to stop us from going to the grave, there is no need to hand over my friend's letter to me." I think they should be in the opposite camp. ”

"But I don't think it's that simple." I looked up at the window and saw that the moon in reality was rounder and brighter than the moon in the space of the candle dragon horn, and said, "Mystery people are not necessarily friends. ”

"As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, and if I can see the mysterious man again, I must ask about it." Zhang Lun stared at me tightly, his gaze surprisingly firm.

I rubbed my eyes, I was a little tired from tossing in parallel time and space this day, and I felt a little tired all over, so I said lightly: "Who is a friend and who is an enemy, can you tell the difference?" ”

Zhang Lun was really stunned.

He must have had the same doubt in his heart, if the person who stole the candle dragon horn was just to prevent us from going to the grave, what was the reason? The mysterious person who sent Zhang Lun's letter obviously wanted him to go to the grave, what was the reason? Which one is good for us and which one is bad for us?

"By the way, if you don't count the mysterious person, you said that only the Egyptian government knows about our plan to go to the tomb, so the person in charge you contacted is also suspected of stealing the candle dragon horn, right?" As I spoke, I silently closed the curtains and looked at the moon for a whole day, I now have a little fear of it, I am really afraid that tomorrow I will wake up, and the sun will not go to work as usual. However, Zhang Lun said that the four major artifacts have restrictions on their use and cannot be used continuously. This reminds me of the power of the Emperor's Eye in my body, which also requires a cooldown.

"That's right." Zhang Lun nodded, "But I have submitted our information, and others in the Egyptian government must have seen it, as for whether it has been leaked, it is unknown." ”

Our night talk did not lead to useful results, and after yesterday's events, we were all so tired that we quickly fell asleep. After sleeping until noon the next day, we had a brief meal and prepared before driving to the city hall in Luxor.

After Zhang Lun made a phone call, a small, slightly balding middle-aged man walked out of the building and greeted us, followed by two strong bodyguards. Zhang Lun told me that he was the main person in charge of the tomb operation, and that he was a high-ranking member of the Egyptian government and was very powerful.

"I didn't expect him to come and greet us in person." I whispered.

But what I didn't expect was that he would be fluent in Chinese, and the flesh on his face was piled up with a smile, and he said to us very warmly: "Thank you two for coming." ”

"You're welcome." Zhang Lun smiled, "We should thank you for the opportunity." ”

"I am a firm believer in Chinese spells, and it would be our biggest regret to be without you." The person in charge spoke in a loud voice, and he could say that Chinese was spitting, "However, please forgive me for not allowing you to join directly, according to the regulations, you must pass the assessment." Although I am the first person in charge, this is not what Chinese calls 'Yiyantang'. ”

He took us to a conference room on the 22nd floor and told us to wait here for a quick assessment. They also prepared tea and pastries in advance, which was very courteous.

After the person left, I couldn't wait to ask Zhang Lun about the person in charge, and his Chinese level really surprised me. Zhang Lun explained: "His name is Ahmad, his grandmother is Chinese, and he worked at the Egyptian Embassy in China in her early years. ”

We waited for more than ten minutes, and there was no movement outside, as if we had forgotten about it. Zhang Lun drank too much tea and wanted to go out to find the bathroom, and the moment he got up, I felt a yin wind coming, which instantly increased my alertness.

"Don't move, there's yin in the house!" I shouted and reminded Zhang Lun not to move, and he immediately made a gesture to meet the enemy.

However, after about two minutes, I couldn't lock down the source of the yin qi, and then Zhang Lun said: "It's because the air conditioner happened to turn up the power, you are a little too cautious." ”

Small kiosk

I looked at the central air conditioner above our heads, and I was sure that the yin was definitely coming from this direction.

"No, the air conditioner is deliberately turned on to hide the yin qi, I think our assessment has begun."

That yin qi just now flashed away, and if it weren't for my strong perception, I would probably have ignored it. And I guess this ghost may have hidden powers, otherwise I would never have been able to locate it. Even if I opened the Yin and Yang Eyes at the first time, I still couldn't see its existence, which only had two possibilities: one was that the other party's Tao was too high, and the other was that the other party had a special ability to temporarily hide his body. I think it's the latter, because the Egyptian government obviously can't get a deterrent ghost to test us, and that's a bit of a problem.

"You set the air conditioner to heat up and turn it to the highest setting." I said to Zhang Lun.

As long as it is a ghost, it must have yin energy, and if you want to hide yin energy, you must have enough cultivation. The little ghost's yin qi is weak, but the cultivation is not enough, and it is impossible to hide it all the time, and the big ghost's cultivation is high, but the yin qi is too heavy, so this is simply a paradox, and it is impossible for the ghost to completely hide the yin qi. The cold air of the air conditioner is too loud to affect my judgment, and after adjusting it to hot air, there will be nothing to hide immediately.

"So you were so bold that you hid under the table!"

With a loud shout from me, the peachwood sword was sacrificed out of thin air, and the yin spirit under the table fled in fright. Just when I was about to make a move

As it was time to break it, the door to the conference room was pushed open, and Ahmad walked in with a white woman. I saw the white woman take out a small glass bottle, and the little ghost slipped into it.

The woman gave me a thumbs up and smiled, "Yood."

"Haha, congratulations to you two for passing the assessment." Seeing us standing there in a daze, the person in charge, Ahmad, hurriedly came out to play the round.

According to Ahmad, the white woman's name is Rowling, a British exorcist who has passed the previous examination, and will go to the grave with us. Just now he asked Rowling to test us, and that little ghost is the evil spirit she once sealed, and he is the best at concealment. Therefore, if we can find traces of evil spirits, we will pass the assessment.

I whispered in Zhang Lun's ear: "I think they released the water, how can there be a player to assess the player, and this exam question is not difficult at all." ”

Zhang Lun said: "Someone didn't want us to come before, and now someone wants us to come, haha, interesting." ”

Then we met the other two members of the mission, an archaeologist in his 60s named Balde, and his female student, Chen Keying, who is of Chinese descent. Chen Keying was more excited when he saw that we were Chinese, and his teacher Balder also spoke a lot of Chinese, but his level was obviously not as good as Ahmad. Balde introduced himself very warmly: "Hello, my name is Balde, as an archeologist, I love Chinese history very much, you can call me Chinese name Baba." ”

"Your name is so kind......" I said speechlessly.

Balde smiled happily: "It was my son who gave it to me, and he is currently learning Chinese." ”

I thought to myself: But isn't it, your father can't do this.

Originally, I thought that they were two ordinary people who were dragging their feet, but I didn't expect Ahmad to tell me later that Chen Keying was a yang spirit body.

The spirit body is a rare physique, which is divided into yin spirit body and yang spirit body, the yin spirit body is the easiest to attract ghosts, and the yang spirit body is the most ghost-defeating body. It is said that there was once a powerful ghost who wanted to get on Chen Keying's body, but he was scattered on the spot. People who are born on a yin day as often said in the movie are indeed easy to become yin spirits, but there is also a certain chance that there is a good chance that one of a thousand people born on a yin day can become a yin spirit. And the Yang Spirit Body is one in a thousand, and even one of the few in the world.

The Egyptian government has prepared a translator for each of us, so that we can communicate happily. I heard that this voice translator is still developed by a domestic company, and it is considered a unicorn in the industry. In addition, each person was equipped with a miner's lighting helmet and radio, as well as an oxygen mask, which was quite well prepared.

Zhang Lun went out for an afternoon, and when he came back, he mysteriously took out a pistol from his bag, although it didn't look like a high-end product, but in Egypt, a country that also bans guns, I really don't know where he got it.

Everything is ready, tomorrow at 12 noon, we will go down to the tomb on time.
