Knock knock.
Jock opened the door and saw that it was Clarke, whom he met yesterday, and was surprised: "Clark? How do you know I live here? ”
Clark tried his best to act like he was fine, and said, "You didn't mean to say it yesterday, maybe you forgot about it." "I thought to myself, if I hadn't gone to the police station to check it out, I really didn't know you lived here.
"Please come in, please come in."
Jock's place is like a kennel, full of dirty clothes and instant noodle buckets that he throws away after eating, this is the first time Clark has seen such a "distinctive" college student, and the college students he has seen in the past live in a clean place.
"It's just a little dirty, just get used to it."
Is this still a bit dirty, Clark thinks that the places where he lives are better than him, but it is inconvenient to worry so much about Jock.
Clark spoke: "Museum ......"
"Oh, you mean the museum, it is said that after the disappearance of a security guard of Maris inside, the police intervened in the investigation, and finally found that it was Maris who disappeared near the cursed sarcophagus, and there was only a walkie-talkie at the scene, and then another security guard disappeared last night, and the police speculated that he may have been killed."
Jock is like a mouth cannon with an insurance cannon, he can't stop, Clark can barely hear what Jock is saying, Jock who doesn't look amazing can talk so fast, the world is so big. Jock talked for a long time before he remembered why Clark was talking about the museum.
"Why do you talk about museums?"
Finally it was his turn to speak, and Clark took advantage of the fact that Jock's mouth cannon mode was not fully turned on, and hurriedly said, "I want to know about that cursed sarcophagus in the museum." ”
"Man, you're looking for me right, I have some evidence here that the owner of the Cursed Sarcophagus may be a guard next to a pharaoh who has never been mentioned in history."
Speaking of the sarcophagus, Jock stood up and took Clarke's hand as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and walked quickly into the room next to him, where there were many books about the Egyptian pharaohs, and it seemed that Jock had spent a lot of energy and borrowed a lot of books in order to study the cursed sarcophagus.
"The sarcophagus dates from 100 to 80 BC, when the Ptolemaic dynasty ruled Egypt and the ruler was Ptolemy XI." "Ptolemy XI had a very short reign, and it had something to do with him killing his wife, and in history he married the widow of the previous king in order to inherit the throne, and then killed her. Egypt at the time did not approve of this ungrateful approach, so he was killed in a later uprising. ”
"You mean to say that the sarcophagus of the damned is Ptolemy XI's?"
Jock shook his head and said, "No, no, no, there are very few books about Ptolemy XI, and there is one thing, like everyone else, he is afraid of death. ”
"Guards, you say? How did Ptolemy XI have a guard that he never mentioned? Clark felt that his head was a little insufficient.
"In ancient times, every king dreamed of immortality, although there are few records of Ptolemy XI, a small paragraph details that Ptolemy XI was afraid of death, so he sent a magical guard to the Yellow Springs Road, to the underworld to get the elixir of immortality for himself."
Clark took the book that Jock handed him, and there was a simple picture of a small boat carrying a man from one side of the shore to the other side of the shore, and he was not mistaken, Ptolemy XI on one side of the shore, and the people of Hades on the other side.
"This was at a time when Ptolemy XI's reign was waning, so he urgently needed to get the elixir of immortality before the end of his reign, but unfortunately, the guards came back and said they couldn't find it."
"So this guard was put to death by Ptolemy XI?"
"Secret execution."
Things are beginning to become clear, cursing the sarcophagus that the one is not Ptolemy XI, most likely the guard who was secretly executed, Clark asked: "Since the guards have arrived in Hades, they should have something to gain." ”
"That's right, so I suspect that the guard told a lie, and it is highly likely that he received the elixir of immortality, and did not give it to Tetrammy XI, but ate it for himself."
Jock didn't have the hippie smile he had before, but like a stern professor, all he lacked was a pair of glasses: "This guard took the immortal medicine, and then was executed by Ptolemy XI, the guard didn't expect Ptolemy XI to hate him to the core, even after death, he didn't let the guard ** free, built a pyramid, and imprisoned the guard's soul and ** in the pyramid." ”
"It's like in a movie."
I understand, the cursed sarcophagus is the guard, the guard is executed and can't be freed, you can imagine how deep the resentment is, as soon as you get free, you want to kill, and possess a powerful body to replace the possessed person.
"Any message from the guards?"
Since the Cursed Sarcophagus was not Ptolemy XI, there was no need to continue the search, only the name of the executed guard and the source of his magic. Clark stood up and said, "Jock, do me a favor." ”
"Man, if you have anything to say, as long as I can do it, it is absolutely incumbent." Jock patted his chest and reassured.
"Help me find the names of the guards and the source of their magic."
Jock wondered, "Clark, why are you suddenly so keen on the name of the guard, does it mean that you plan to see if the magic is real?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes."
Clark couldn't say that the guards really woke up and killed two people, so he could only lie and ask Jock to do him a favor, although he didn't want to go, but he still had to do it.
"Leave it to me, since it is related to Ptolemy XI, I only need to find something related to Ptolemy XI and related to Egyptian magic at that time."
Jock swears, and Clark doesn't know if he can do it, anyway, by this time it's a blind cat that hits a dead mouse, rather than trying, give it a try to know if there's a chance.
"Be careful, tell me as soon as you have news."
Leaving Jock's house, Clark recalled what Jock had said, that someone had died in the morning, and that was because of himself, and if he chose to fight with the guards outside, it wouldn't have been affected, and so on!
I'm here, and my power is endless.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was like the guard had leaked his mouth, if what the guard said was true, as long as he stayed in the museum, the power was inexhaustible, in other words, the museum had a source of his magic power, and he only needed to break the source of his magic power, which would be much simpler.
Clarke's eyes rolled as he thought of something, planning to go into the museum again tonight to find out, when suddenly a person muttered beside him.
"This is it, the volatility is getting bigger and bigger......"
