Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Upside-Down Tomb

After Xia Wei blew a hole in the stone gate, he said to us, "Let's go." ”

We nodded and followed Xia Wei.

Xia Wei climbed in first, and Chen Long and I followed behind Xia Wei one by one, and when we went in, we found that this place was completely different from the previous tomb.

And what's so strange about this tomb is that almost everything is upside down!

Xia Wei has been frowning since he came in, he looked at the things around him, and was a little stunned.

"It's like a place." Xia Wei said after a long time.

Like a place? Like where?

"Where?" I asked.

"Pyramid!" Xia Wei said.

Pyramid???

How could this be a pyramid? The pyramids are the tombs of the Egyptian pharaohs, how could they be here?

"Not a pyramid, but like a pyramid!" Xia Wei corrected.

But even if it's like a pyramid, it's not an upside-down pyramid!

"But this is an upside-down pyramid, how is this possible!" I said.

Chen Long, who had not spoken at this time, suddenly said solemnly: "I remember that there was a pharaoh whose pyramid was upside down, as if it was called Dedevla. ”

"Dedevla? What is this? I asked.

"Dedevra was the second pharaoh of the Fourth Dynasty of Egypt, after Khufu, and his reign was not very long, and legend has it that his pyramid is about five kilometers north of the Kitsa necropolis in Abu Luash, but these are legends, there are no pyramids in this area at all, and archaeologists even suspect that Dedevra does not have his own pyramid at all." Xia Wei explained.

I nodded as if I didn't understand, what Xia Wei just said should be the name of the place in Egypt, right? But does all this have anything to do with this tomb?

"In the Fourth Dynasty of Egypt, the sun god was worshipped, so many pharaohs had the syllable Ra in their names, which meant the sun god, including Diefra, but Didfra was indeed the son of Anubis." Xia Wei continued.

When I heard these names, my head swelled a little, what is this? How can the pyramid of Defra be pulled to Anubis? And who is Anubis?

"What does Anubis do? This so-called son, is it a biological son? I asked.

Xia Wei despised me for a moment and said, "You kid usually doesn't study history well, and you're lonely. Not a biological son. Anubis is the god of Egyptian mythology who helps the dead to reach the underworld, that is, the ruler of hell, in other words, it is equivalent to the king of Hades in China, and the pharaoh of Egypt used to portray himself as the son of the god in order to increase the sanctity of his rule, just as the emperor of China liked to shape himself as a dragon, in the fourth dynasty of Egypt, the god of creation was also the god of the sun' Ra' was worshipped, so from the Fourth Dynasty onwards, Pharaoh's name mostly claimed to be the son of Ra, including this Desfra, but many monks in later generations believed that he was not the son of Ra, but the son of Anubis. ”

I nodded, this time I did understand a little, dare to love this tomb is likely to be the imitation of the pyramid of Dedevla, and that is the tomb of the Egyptian pharaoh! This tomb owner is really a bit powerful, and he even went to the pyramids of the Egyptian pharaohs?

"Master, then you mean this pyramid of Dedevla?" I asked.

Xia Wei nodded and said: "But this can't be a real pyramid, which one should be built on the model, but Rao is so, it can also prove how capable the owner of this tomb is, there are too many mysteries of the pyramid, and according to legend, Desfra has a strange curse, anyone who divulges the location of his tomb will be summoned by Anubis." ”

I nodded.

"Let's go, go in and see how this tomb owner built this pyramid." Xia Wei smiled and said.

We followed behind Xia Wei, and seeing Xia Wei so excited, we were not so scared.

But this is the pyramid of the pharaohs!

It didn't take long for us to see a box.

It's an iron box, about the size of an electric oven, but heavy.

"This should be the ancient Egyptian's chest, but this box has been so old that it hasn't been corroded, it's a miracle." Xia Wei glanced at it and said.

I glanced at the box and found some words on it, and said, "Master, there seem to be words on it, I can't read it." ”

Xia Wei glanced at it and said: "Osiris, this is the evil god in ancient Egyptian mythology, and the legend says that if the pharaoh's soul fails to fly into the sky through the cracks in the pyramid, then his mummy will become such an evil god. ”

"Osiris, who led his army in a slaughter, killed people in a strange way, as if they would force the captives to drink some kind of poison, and then the captives would lose their nature and become the slaves of Osiris, and these men would be infinite and there would be no shadows." Xia Wei continued.

"No shadows? Isn't that a ghost? I asked.

In our Chinese Taoism, people who don't have a shadow are all ghosts, and that's what I told Chen Long before, and the ghosts we encountered before were all shadowless.

"Yes, in ancient Egypt, there was a history of shadow worship, Egypt is located in a desert area, drought and little rain, but the shadow will bring people cool, so the ancient Egyptians believed that the shadow is a gift from God to people. And in the first dynasty of ancient Egypt, that is, the dynasty established by Narma, the shadow was regarded as the representative of the soul, God wants to take back your shadow, which means that God wants to take back your soul, the ancient Egyptians believed that man is composed of three parts: body, soul and consciousness, and the body will not die if it leaves the soul alone or from consciousness alone. Xia Wei thought for a moment and explained.

I nodded as if I didn't understand, I feel that this is similar to our Chinese Taoism, anyway, it means that there is no shadow and it is a ghost, and it all means the same thing.

Long Chen looked around and said, "I found a passage to the underground. ”

A passage to the underground? Isn't this underground?

"To the underground?" I asked.

Chen Long nodded and looked at Xia Wei, Xia Wei said, "Wait a minute, let's open this iron box first and see what is inside." ”

"I'll open it." I said.

I was about to open the box, but Xia Wei grabbed me and said, "Wait! ”

I don't know why, but I saw Xia Wei grab a handful of copper coins, put a strange pattern on the ground, and took out a yellow talisman from his pocket and clamped it around my waist.

"I don't know if it works, stand in this circle and open the box, don't get out of the circle, let's step back." Xia Wei said.

Xia Wei said, took a few steps back with Chen Long, and drew on the ground again.

"The sun rises in the east, and the light shines brightly. Five soldiers in the court, for me King Kong! Haste as a law! Xia Wei thought about it, took out his magic sword and thuded it on the ground.

Chen Long looked at the things on the ground and asked curiously, "What are you drawing?" ”

"The one next to Xiao Yuan is called the Two Realms Fu, and our one is called the Dingmen Array, even if there are really those things in the box, it shouldn't hurt Xiao Yuan, let alone get out of this house, but whether our Dao method can deal with this Egyptian thing, I don't know." Xia Wei said.

"I'll go! Doesn't that mean that Xiaoyuan is dangerous? Chen Long shouted.

"Not really, I'm sure I'll be able to save him, but I don't think there's anything here." Xia Wei said.

I crouched down, checked that there was no danger outside the box, and then found the tip of a folded crowbar and inserted it into the crack of the box.

With a bang, the box was pried open.

Inside the chest, there was a dead man's skull, a roll of sheepskin, a piece of which was missing.

"Doesn't seem to be a problem." I shouted at Xia Wei and them.

Xia Wei looked at the compass, walked over, and said, "It's really no problem, the compass doesn't react." ”

"Let's go inside." Xia Wei said.

We nodded.

Xia Wei glanced at the sheepskin, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he shouted, "Is this tomb owner a tomb robber?" ”

Tomb robbers? What's the situation?

"What's the situation?" I asked.

"This sheepskin records the internal structure of no less than fifteen pyramids, and here it records what was stolen from each of the pyramids, this is Khufu's, this is Jadekara's, the trough, even Tutankhamun's pyramid he visited, this is Khafre's?" Xia Wei suddenly said lightly.

"What is Khafre?" I asked.

"Look, this is a map of the Pyramid of Khafre." Xia Wei pointed to the map on the sheepskin and said.

I took a look at it and thought it was very strange.

"What a miracle!" Chen Long said.

"It's unbelievable!" I said.

I saw that the map drawn above was the Pyramid of Khafre, but this pyramid was actually upside down!

"What's going on? Isn't it said that the pyramid of Dedevra is upside down? I asked.

Just now, Xia Wei and they said that the pyramid of Dedevra is upside down, why is there another khafre now?

Xia Wei pondered for a while and said, "This is not the pyramid of Khafre, this is the pyramid of Desfra, the stairway to the underworld!" ”

"The pyramid was considered by the Egyptians to be a ladder to the sky, and Pharaoh believed that after death, people could ascend to the sky through the pyramid, and if Pharaoh wanted to go to heaven, the pyramid had to be built on the ground, and when the ladder climbed up, Pharaoh wanted to go to the ground, and the pyramid had to be built upside down and built at the bottom, as a ladder to the ground, and if Dedevra was really the son of Anubis as the legend said, he would definitely go back to hell after he died, so his pyramid was an inverted pyramid, and it was built underneath." Xia Wei said.

"There's still writing on the back!" I shouted as I glanced at the parchment.

Xia Wei glanced at it and said, "The one who disturbed the peace of the pharaoh brought a terrible curse here, and the evil Osiris came down because of this......"
