Chapter 424: An unbearable weight

The bald fat man stepped forward tremblingly and began to dig things out of his pocket. Gao Qian was surprised to see that the golden beetle made of gold often appeared on the chest of the pharaoh's mummies, used to guide the way to life. A decorative ruby that was presumably pried from a piece of furniture, and a small thing that looked like earrings.

In the end, Gao Qian was surprised to see that the bald fat man had untied a slender cloth bag from his fat, almost torn undershirt. As the bag was removed, the bald fat man's belly was much smaller.

It turned out that he had put his belongings in a bag and hid them around his waist.

The little man stood behind and complained dissatisfiedly: "It turns out that you secretly hid so much money. ”

"If I don't save money for retirement, will I wait for you to support me?" the bald fat man wiped his sweat and poured the contents of the cloth bag onto the tray, most of them were gold coins and gold leaf, as well as old paper money, but now they were worthless. The few remaining gleaming coins were magic crystals.

Anubis watched expressionlessly.

After the bald fat man scavenged everything on his body, he carefully left his hand and stepped back gently: "This, this is all my belongings, my most precious things are here." ”

The scales slowly rose and fell, and the bald fat man held his breath, as if his feathers would sink if he breathed heavily.

When the white light feather shook for a moment and finally began to sink, Anubis showed an angry expression: "This is the most precious thing you can offer?"

Anubis's angry expression was terrifying, representing the wrath of a necromantic ruler against the living. The bald fat man trembled and fell to his knees: "O great god of jackals, this is really all I can offer, please be merciful and let me meet my sister." Except for this stinky boy who is not angry, my sister is my only relative, and she is already owned by you. Great god of jackals, my most precious thing is my affection with my sister, and you have already taken it. ”

Anubis waved his hand, and the bald fat man seemed to have been hit by a punch, and he fell backwards and rolled twice before he steadied himself. Anubis roared angrily, "This is an insult to me! Don't you understand? Great god of jackals, don't want these hypocritical offerings! I want your purest faith! Faith you know? Your most precious thing! It doesn't have to be very valuable, it's not necessarily a jewel, but it's something that carries your faith, are you so stingy?"

The bald fat man shook his head in fear: "I swear, these are really the most precious things I have, and what I really value is in your paradise of the dead." ”

"Lie!" Anubis roared angrily.

The bald fat man shook his head desperately.

Then the little man begged, "Lord Anubis, I wonder if the offerings I have contributed are enough for me and my uncle, and I beg you to let my uncle and I go with me to visit my mother." ”

"No, your offerings are only enough to carry you alone. If he could not provide enough provisions, the reed boat would not be able to carry him. Even if I force him onto the boat, he will drown in the middle of the lake!"

Gao Qian frowned slightly. He glanced at the scales full of coins and pulled out the Twilight Blade.

Anubis was startled and stammered, "Master, what are you going to do here? It's not that I'm not willing to be accommodating, it's because this mortal can't provide enough provisions, and the soul boat can't carry him." It's a rule, even I can't follow it. ”

Ignoring the panicked Anubis, High Diver tinkered and poured a sparkling diamond ring from the scabbard of Twilight Blade. He held the diamond ring and stared for a moment, looking at Anubis.

Anubis took a breath of cold air, and in his blue eyes, the ice flame soared, as if it was about to release light.

Gao Qian pondered for a few seconds, and slowly lowered it on the scales.

As Gao Diver left his hand, the tray on the right side seemed to have been hit by a strong force, and it sank down sharply, and with a bang, it smashed to the ground. Cracks appeared in large cement panels.

Anubis was shocked and stretched out his hands: "Don't!"

However, it was too late, and the thin black-gold weighing rod of the scales made an ominous click, and then shattered to the ground like a porcelain that had been hit hard.

The magical white feather that can measure people's hearts fluttered down to the surface of the lake, and after a few ripples on the water, it completely sank to the bottom.

The scale of Anubis's justice has fallen.

For thousands of years, it has weighed the hearts of hundreds of millions of Egyptians, and has judged the lives of countless Egyptians with justice and ruthlessness. Now, that's it, ruined?

Anubis raised his hand fell like a fallen pillar of the temple. He slowly turned his head like a mummy, looking at the pile of coins on the ground. The culprit at the top, the one-carat diamond ring, is shining innocently.

High Dive leaned over, picked up his ring from the treasure that had fallen to the ground, wiped it on the placket of his shirt, and examined it carefully.

Luckily, nothing damaged.

He looked up at the stunned Anubis, "I didn't mean to. ”

Anubis took a deep breath and regained his voice for a long time: "Of course, master, you never deliberately broke the rules. Anubis's voice had a strange tone, and it was impossible to tell whether it was sadness or surprise.

"So now he can get on the reed boat?"

Anubis sighed heavily and waved his hand.

A small boat made of reeds appeared on the shore, the shape of the boat was raised high at both ends like a crescent moon, and the middle part was about the size of a canoe, looking like an enlarged version of the Egyptian straw sandals. It was astonishing that the whole boat was made entirely of reeds, and it looked very fragile, but it floated lightly on the water.

The little man jumped into the boat first, followed by the trembling bald fat man. After the fat man climbed on, the reed boat shook violently, but still withstood the weight of the fat man. The bald fat man excitedly turned back to Gao Qian and shouted, "Thank you, Mr. Yara, thank you for the ring!"

On the shore of the lake, Gao Qian slowly put Lin Qian's ring back into his scabbard, and seeing Anubis staring at him, he curled the corners of his mouth coldly: "You don't really think I'm going to give you this ring, do you?"

"I didn't expect that," Anubis replied with remorse, "and I didn't expect you to take this ring out." I should have stopped you. ”

"There are things you can't afford. Gao Qian said coldly, "It's okay if this scale is broken, this practice of forcing others to offer the most precious thing should be abandoned." ”

"As you wish, my lord. ”

Anubis bent down deeply.
