Chapter Eighty-Seven: Ancient Egyptian

A voice sounded from behind them, and a few people looked back, but it was Xiao Yechen rowing a small boat behind them.

"Mr. Xiao, how did you get out and this boat? This...... When are you...? ”

Everyone was soaked in the water, only Xiao Yechen was the only one, sitting leisurely on the boat, forming an independent scenery on the entire river.

"Haha, this is my secret! But I guess you'd better come up first, it's not very comfortable to soak in the water in the middle of the night. Xiao Yechen said with a smile.

"Uh... All right! O'Connor was stunned, then nodded, helped Evelyn and Jonathan onto to the boat, and climbed up himself.

Paddle ashore and rest at a local hotel for the night.

The next day, O'Connor bought four camels, dragged the items needed along the way, and went into the desert.

"Is this the desert? It's really barren! Entering the desert for the first time in his life, looking at the endless yellow sand, Xiao Yechen wiped the sweat that did not exist on his forehead, and said to himself.

Along the way, in addition to the yellow sand or yellow sand, the only plants around are also some thorny drought-tolerant plants, and there is almost no green to see.

After a day's trip, except for Xiao Yechen, everyone was too tired to do so, so they set up tents on the spot, ate some food, and the group lay quietly, looking at the stars in the sky.

"Evelyn, I heard you know ancient Egyptian, right?" Raising the sand in his hand, Xiao Yechen asked Evelyn, who was lazy.

"Ancient Egyptian? I didn't know much, but I learned a little from my parents. Thinking of her long-dead parents, Evelyn said quietly.

"Really? Can you communicate with me in ancient Egyptian, like saying hello or something? Xiao Yechen turned his head and looked at Evelyn with some expectation.

"Communication? Mr. Shaw, are you going to learn Ancient Egyptian? Listening to Xiao Yechen's strange request, Evelyn asked in surprise.

"Uh... You can think of it that way, but I don't know if it's okay? ”

"Of course, if you're not too troublesome!" Evelyn replied immediately.

Ancient Egyptian, an ancient and mysterious prophecy, is a language that few people know today, thousands of years after the culture has disappeared.

As a researcher of ancient Egyptian culture, Evelyn was naturally willing to have more people involved in this research.

"Thank you," Xiao Yechen thanked from the bottom of his heart when he heard Evelyn agree, "Then, you can say it now!" ”

"Well, okay!"

Evelyn thought for a moment and spoke, and suddenly a tone of voice that she had never heard before came out of her mouth: "Tou Na De Xuan! ”

The tone is subdued and abrupt, and it is very rhythmic.

However, after these words reached Xiao Yechen's ears, they turned into a word with endless echoes, and the whole sentence kept echoing in Xiao Yechen's mind, and at the same time, endless knowledge about the ancient Egyptian language appeared in his heart out of thin air.

In just a few breaths, Xiao Yechen found that he had completely mastered this kind of language.

Sure enough, the ability provided by the system is extraordinary, and even the language that can read those two holy books can be directly instilled. Now you don't have to worry about not being able to read it anymore! ”

Just when Xiao Yechen was shocked and pondered in his heart, Evelyn frowned.

"Hey——, Mr. Xiao? What happened to you? ”

Since he said a word of ancient Egyptian to this guy, Xiao Yechen has been stunned for more than 10 seconds

"Uh... That, I'm fine, I just thought about something and got distracted! Sorry, I was rude! Xiao Yechen came back to his senses, with uncontrollable joy in his eyes, and said excitedly.

"By the way, thank you for the communication. In addition, let me tell you one thing, I am actually a researcher of ancient Egyptian culture! Xiao Yechen thought about it and said that he could also speak ancient Egyptian.

"What? You too? Evelyn first looked at Xiao Yechen in surprise, and then suddenly thought of something, her face changed, and she said suspiciously: "Xiao ...... Mr. Xiao, you're not lying to me, are you? ”

Seeing Evelyn's suspicions, Xiao Yechen smiled slightly, and swore an oath: "How come, if you don't believe it, you can communicate with me in ancient Egyptian!" ”

"Okay, that's what you said!"

Immediately, Evelyn said to Xiao Yechen in ancient Egyptian, but the corners of Xiao Yechen's mouth were raised, and he replied directly in ancient Egyptian, and his tone was more standard than Evelyn.

Evelyn was stunned for a moment, and then bombarded Xiao Yechen as if she had discovered a new continent, and Xiao Yechen replied to her with a smile.

Then Evelyn asked some knowledge related to ancient Egyptian culture, and Xiao Yechen answered it completely!

"Oh? God, Mr. Xiao, I didn't expect you to be so proficient in ancient Egyptian culture! ”

Evelyn was amazed, and O'Connor and Jonathan next to her also looked surprised.

After discovering that Xiao Yechen seemed to know ancient Egyptian culture very well, Evelyn became interested, and immediately turned into a studious baby, asking Xiao Yechen back and forth, and mentioning the problems she had encountered in her previous research.

In the face of Evelyn's studious attitude, Xiao Yechen smiled bitterly, but for the sake of learning ancient Egyptian, he did not refuse, relying on some of the cultural customs about ancient Egypt in the systematic indoctrination, and patiently answered Evelyn's questions.

“……”

……

For hours of studying, Evelyn kept asking questions until she was too tired to bear it.

Xiao Yechen looked at the time, but he smiled bitterly and sighed: "It's the middle of the night, this Evelyn is really a scholar!" ”

Early the next morning.

Everyone woke up, ate dry food, and under O'Connor's leadership, set out on the journey again.

After two days of camel riding in the desert, the group finally arrived, and in the evening of that day, the group reached their destination.

However, there is still an endless barren desert in front of you, without a trace of green, and there is no trace of the ancient city at the roots.

Jonathan suddenly exclaimed, "Hey, O'Connor, my brother, aren't you asleep?" Look here, where is there any Hamnath? ”

Evelyn also stared at O'Connor with a puzzled expression, waiting for him to explain.

Only Xiao Yechen frowned and looked into the distance.

Having seen the movie, he knows that this Hamnath is invisible in the eyes of those who have not entered, in the night. It is only when the sun comes out that it appears in people's sight.

O'Connor laughed when he heard this, and said, "Do you know why, for so many years, there has been almost no news that anyone has entered Hamnat? ”

"Why?" Evelyn asked.

"Because ......," O'Connor suddenly smiled strangely, and said, "This city of the dead is invisible!" ”
