Chapter 6: Turmoil on the Ship (I)

(PS: Ask for collection, ask for recommendation.) )

Cairo, Giza Port.

The turquoise Nile River flows quietly, and many merchant ships gather on it, Zhang Yang and Evelyn meet here, Zhang Yang looks into the distance, and can see three pyramids.

Jonathan carried his luggage and squeezed through the crowd, the dock was very lively, and there were more people, Evelyn looked at Zhang Yang, empty-handed, without anything, and asked a little strangely.

"You didn't bring anything?"

Zhang Yang stretched out his palm, and then in front of Evelyn and Jonathan's widening eyes, a beautiful silver pistol appeared.

"It's not that I didn't have anything with me, but I didn't have it with me."

Only then did Evelyn remember that Zhang Yang was a messenger of the gods from the east, and it didn't seem surprising that he could appear out of thin air or put them away.

"Now we're on the waterway, but what if we're in the desert?"

"Out of the waterway, before entering the desert, we pass through an oasis where we can buy camels." Zhang Yang explained.

"Speaking of which, why hasn't O'Connor shown up yet?"

Evelyn looked around, Jonathan reassuring. "Trust me, he's the kind of guy who talks the talk."

"But I think he's rude, lewd, and a scoundrel."

"You're talking about me?" Behind the two, O'Connor suddenly appeared, startling Evelyn, who looked at his new image and greeted him with some surprise. "You're surprising me."

"It's thanks to him." O'Connor pointed at Zhang Yang, who had lent him 500 Egyptian pounds, went to take a shower, cut his hair, and bought another set of clothes, which O'Connor had to pack from the inside out.

an hour ago.

Zhang Yang took O'Connor to an uninhabited alley, looked at him and said, "Let's make a deal." ”

"What?"

"I know you like Evelyn, albeit only on a one-sided basis." Zhang Yang looked at O'Connor: "I can guarantee that I will try to keep the two of you together and help you pursue her." And as a deal, you need to make sure I get my hands on these two books. ”

"It's just those two books, and one of them is called the Golden Sutra of the Sun?" O'Connor was still a little skeptical.

"Yes." Zhang Yang nodded: "You know that I am an oracle from the East, and other things are of no use to me except scriptures, such as the gold in Hamnata." ”

O'Connor looked at Zhang Yang and didn't feel anything wrong, so he agreed.

"Before you do that, you'll have to change your image, Miss Evelyn doesn't like a beggar like you." Zhang Yang took out 500 Egyptian pounds: "Believe me, I am very experienced." ”

O'Connor, who had been in Egypt for many years and was familiar with Cairo, went to the barber shop to get his hair trimmed, and Zhang Yang waited for him to leave, with a smile on his lips.

When he rescued O'Connor from prison, he had a small note in his diamond pocket.

"Found the main quest, do you accept it?"

After pressing OK in a flamboyant way, the font on the slip of paper kept changing, and then it became a line of Chinese characters.

"You accepted the task: to obtain the scriptures, mission objectives: you need to obtain the Sun Golden Sutra and the Black Sutra of the Undead, no limit to the way, no time limit, mission punishment: live forever in this shijie, there is no escape."

Now it's 1926, and if you want to go back to 2013, it will take 87 years, and in such a strange country, you will live for a full 87 years, and you will experience the second Shijie War in the middle, this kind of life is not peaceful.

Seeing that the goal of the mission coincides with his own purpose, he is to obtain two scriptures, and he continues to arrange his own jihua in his heart.

……

Cairo, Giza Port.

Still a little skeptical, Evelyn confirmed to O'Connor, "Mr. O'Connor, are you sure you're not bragging?" Otherwise, I warn you......"

"You warn me?"

O'Connor looked at Evelyn and said calmly: "Miss, my troops and I just believed it and crossed Libya to Egypt to find the city, and after we arrived, we didn't find any gold, only sand and blood. ”

O'Connor got on the boat with his luggage, Zhang Yang and Evelyn were just about to board the ship, and the bearded warden squeezed over with a large bag: "Morning everyone, I'm here to protect my investment, xiexie, you care." ”

Zhang Yang shrugged his shoulders, he had long known that this guy would be on the boat together, and he didn't care.

……

After boarding the ship, Zhang Yang went to his cabin, and his and O'Connor's rooms were on opposite sides of Evelyn, and O'Connor's expenses, including the tickets, were all paid for by Zhang Yang, except for the guns and ammunition he had previously hidden.

The two of them spent a total of 500 Egyptian pounds on Zhang Yang, and there was still some money left, as well as those diamonds, Zhang Yang took the diamonds to a jewelry store, exchanged them for 3,000 pounds, and received all of them in the storage space.

When it was full, the big ship smoked and headed for the docks near the desert, and soon it was night.

After Zhang Yang got on the ship, he has been walking around, looking around the ship, according to the plot, the descendants of the pharaoh's guards, that is, the men in black, will attack the ship at night, and the target is the map and key in Evelyn's hand. Zhang Yang walked around, and found nothing abnormal, although it was at night, but in the distance, the figure of the pyramid could still be seen by the moonlight.

The pyramid in the dark night is like a place of death, revealing a mystery.

Zhang Yang looked at the majestic pyramid and sighed with emotion, on the ship, Zhang Yang met the Americans who were playing cards on the deck, and Jonathan, at this time, Jonathan was showing off.

"You don't know, do you? Our destination this time is to find the mysterious Hamna Tower! ”

The Americans looked at each other tacitly, but did not speak, their target was also Hamna Tower, and when they saw Zhang Yang coming, an American said: "Hey, I heard that you are going to Hamna Tower?" Do you want us to make a bet? ”

Bet?

Zhang Yang walked over and patted Jonathan's shoulder hard, and the painful Jonathan grinned and smiled: "I only gamble with my life, not with money?" ”

Behind the Americans, an old man in a red hat glanced at Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang had an impression of him, this old man could also read ancient Egyptian, and the Americans who were playing cards heard Zhang Yang's words, and suddenly became a little bloodthirsty and excited.

"Gambling on your life? OK, then enter the Hamna Tower before any of us! ”

……

was exposed by Jonathan, Zhang Yang didn't say much, but came to the other side of the deck, Evelyn was reading a book on the table, constantly chanting a strange string of syllables in her mouth, Zhang Yang guessed that this should be ancient Egyptian.

In the plot of the first part, the people who can understand ancient Egyptian, in addition to Evelyn, also have the leader of the Americans, the old man in the red hat, and Zhang Yang wants to understand the incantation on the Black Book of the Dead, he must first learn ancient Egyptian.

Obviously, Ancient Egyptian is a special language, and after entering the movie shijie, all languages will be translated into Chinese and reach the ears of Zhang Yang, but Ancient Egyptian cannot be translated.

Zhang Yang walked over, made some excuses, and talked to Evelyn, and then expressed his desire to learn ancient Egyptian, Evelyn was also very interested, and wanted to try the language of the messenger of the gods, although Zhang Yang believed in the gods of the East.

"Start with this hieroglyph ......"

Evelyn was holding an ancient Egyptian textbook in her hand, and taught Zhang Yang one by one according to the words on it, Zhang Yang looked very attentive, and scanned all the words on it with mental power, and then engraved it deeply in her mind, Evelyn said all the syllables, and Zhang Yang was already able to read it preliminarily.

Zhang Yang pointed to a hieroglyph in Zuihou, some resembling a bird, or a crane, and asked what it meant.

"The pronunciation of this word is: Omai you Foss, which means evil."

After reading a hieroglyph from zuihou, in Zhang Yang's mind, all these hieroglyphs suddenly jumped out, and then turned into a few words.

"You've mastered Ancient Egyptian (elementary)."

When he looked at those hieroglyphs again, Zhang Yang's mind could already directly understand their meaning, and Zhang Yang thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

"Xiexie, Evelyn, these ancient Egyptians are really hard to master."

"But you still memorized the entire textbook in half an hour, and you have mastered all the pronunciation, meaning, and grammar of the hieroglyphs."

Evelyn was also surprised: "Could it be that this is the liliang that the god you believe in has given you?" ”

"Sort of."

Zhang Yang replied, his memory was all thanks to his spiritual power and spiritual attributes, so he could master the ancient Egyptian language in such a short period of time.

"Liliang of the gods, it's really amazing." Evelyn sighed, "Even I want to believe in a god and see if I can get Liliang." ”

Worship the gods? Zhang Yang was worried that Evelyn would not give him the two books of the Black Book of the Dead, so he simply changed the subject.

"Worship the gods? This is not for fun, most of your Western gods will also undergo some changes when they give you liliang, and the divine envoys will become inhuman and ghostly, and the Eastern gods I serve will not be like this. ”

Zhang Yang frightened Evelyn: "Perhaps, after serving one of your Egyptian gods, you will become inhuman and ghostly, and you may become a mummy directly." ”

Evelyn was frightened by the flamboyance and immediately gave up this idea, like all women, it is a woman's nature to love beauty, fantasy and romance.

Instead of becoming inhuman or ghostly, or even becoming a mummy, Evelyn automatically imagined what it would be like to become a mummy in her mind, and she suddenly felt a chill and gave up the idea.

"I think I'd better continue to study my ancient history."
