Chapter 499: The Second Room
At this time, the pockmarked Egyptian really regretted it, why was he greedy and followed this middle-aged man to rob the tomb, why didn't he listen to his brother just now, just leave here.
"Let me think! Let me think!! And the middle-aged man also knew that his current shape was in danger, and his forehead was full of beads of sweat.
"Huh!?" Suddenly, the middle-aged man noticed something and let out a puzzled sound.
"If I'm not mistaken, for a moment, the statue's movements stopped," the middle-aged man thought to himself.
The middle-aged man thought of something, lowered his head sharply, glanced at his feet, and his eyes lit up.
The middle-aged man took a step back, putting his left foot in front and his right foot behind, and at the moment when the middle-aged man did so, the statue wielding the machete stopped suddenly, motionless, and did not attack.
"And so it was!!" Seeing this, the middle-aged man wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and thought to himself.
"In ancient Egypt, the pharaoh was the divine being! If you look closely, all the Egyptian pharaoh's funerary statues must have their left foot forward, which means that to the deified pharaoh, the heart of his left breast was sacrificed as a sign of absolute obedience. ”
"The King's Tomb is the realm of the gods, and everyone must remain humble and obedient, but the act of walking is carried out unconsciously, subconsciously, and those who move forward in a cycle from side to side with their feet and forget to pay homage to Pharaoh must be punished by death!" The middle-aged man's heart turned like electricity, and he immediately figured out the key point.
"Listen up! Walk with your left foot in front of you, and if your right foot is forward, the statue will attack!! The middle-aged man thought about it. Turn your head immediately. Loudly facing each other and still standing on the stone platform. Two Egyptians, who were afraid to step down the narrow road, shouted.
"Left foot!?" Hearing the middle-aged man's words, the two Egyptians paused.
This is the key point of the 'game' of tongguò, in fact, with the skills of middle-aged people, it is possible to find this, and it will not be like the wolf bèi like now.
Mainly, he is very unfamiliar with the qiē here and does not know about it. He didn't even know that the statues would move, and even attack, if he was given enough time, he would still be able to find them, but because the two Egyptians and the mechanism that had been touched, they didn't have time to think about it carefully.
However, the great luck in the misfortune is. At this critical and urgent time, he still found the key.
"Ahh Walk with your left foot in front. I've never walked like this, it's awkward! And when they heard the words of the middle-aged man, they saw that the wall full of spikes had been forced in front of them, and the two Egyptians could only listen to him, and stepped on the narrow path with their left foot in front of them, and the Egyptian, who was missing a tooth, muttered as he walked, but his feet were not slow at all, and he kept rubbing forward.
"Hold on!" The middle-aged man walked steadily through the statue with his left foot in front and his right foot behind, followed the narrow path, and walked to the exit of the stone platform opposite, turning around and shouting to the two Egyptians.
"The pharaoh must have tested the wisdom and humility of the invaders through the game of guò, and this pharaoh was portrayed as the god Horus, the image of the eagle, which means the one who blazes the way!!" The middle-aged man stood in front of the door on the stone platform, looked up at the statue of a bird-headed human body sitting on the throne more than ten meters high and was one with the door, and thought to himself.
"Be careful, don't panic, it'll be fine!" The middle-aged man turned his head to look at the narrow road, step by step, with his left foot in front and his right foot behind, and the two Egyptians who walked towards him shouted encouragement.
The two Egyptians, walking relatively fast with pockmarked faces, were already on the stone platform, while the other one who was missing a tooth was very timid, and, as if he was a little afraid of heights, walked forward tremblingly, while looking back and forth at the left and right sides of the narrow road, the dark and bottomless abyss.
The toothless Egyptian gradually walked to the middle of the statue, surrounded by the statue holding the murder weapon, the mottled and dry blood stains on the weapon in the statue's hand, and the dead and rotting bones, all deeply irritated him.
"Ahh Yes! No, no, I can't stand it!! The toothless Egyptian could not bear it any longer, and he had always had an idea in his head, and he hurried to the opposite side, and the way he walked with his left foot in front and his right foot behind was obviously not fast, he shouted, stopped walking, and ran quickly towards the stone platform.
"Don't!!" The middle-aged man immediately noticed the actions of the Egyptian who was missing a tooth, his pupils shrank, and he shouted loudly.
But, obviously, when he had finished speaking, the toothless Egyptian had not yet taken a step, and his right foot stepped over his left foot, and the moment he reached the front, the statues around him moved violently, 'Poof! With a bang, a knife pierced him directly.
"Msheira!!" The Egyptian, who was walking in front of him with a pockmarked face, also noticed that something was wrong, turned his head, and saw his younger brother, pierced by the statue with a knife piercing, and he shouted with tears in his eyes.
However, he could never wait for his brother's answer, his brother was already dead and could not die anymore, and the blood stained the knife in the statue's hand, adding a layer of fresh blood to the mottled and dry blood stains, and his brother's body would forever hang on the statue's weapon, warning others who were not self-sufficient and wanted to enter the king's grave.
"Damn! Damn it! Damn it!! The pockmarked Egyptian gritted his teeth, turned his head and followed the narrow path, and finally came to the stone platform, where he knelt on the ground and watched from afar, hanging from the statue's weapon, the body of his brother.
"Damn! It's all you! It's all because of you! My brother just..."After half a ring, the pockmarked Egyptian who was kneeling on the ground stood up suddenly, took out the revolver from his pocket, grabbed the middle-aged man's collar, pointed the revolver at the middle-aged man, and shouted loudly.
"Die, this is the rule of the dark game, you should be prepared before entering here." And the middle-aged man was unusually calm at this time, not shaken by the death of the Egyptian who was missing a tooth, nor was he in trouble because of the muzzle of the gun above his head at this time, and said slowly.
"Onward! Let me go forward!! Hearing this, the pockmarked Egyptian gritted his teeth, let go of the hand holding the middle-aged man's collar, raised his gun and shouted at the middle-aged man, they are all here, his brother is dead, he must get the treasure here.
The middle-aged man glanced at him, held a torch, and turned around and walked into the stone gate on the stone platform, behind which was a passage.
Walking down the passage, after walking dozens of steps, another door appeared in front of them.
"The second room... There are also inscriptions here. Looking at the door, the middle-aged man said, and then his attention was attracted by the hieroglyphs carved on the stone wall beside him. (To be continued......)
