More than 200 kilometers east from the entrance to the Gulf of Suez is the most central part of the Eastern Desert, known as the Death Zone. Although the desert is small, it is a gathering area of quicksand for the whole desert, and the solid sand under your feet can turn into a man-eating trap at any time, and even those tomb robbers who regard their fortune as their fate are rarely willing to enter here in search of treasure, and this place can be said to be a virgin land that has not been excavated for a long time. It was only a month ago that a few Belgian adventurers suddenly found some exquisite golden scorpions from this desert, and this virgin land began to be overrun by a large number of people, and the Barnes family was one of them.

In the eyes of many people, the Barness family is not a well-known family in England, and their family has never appeared any famous person, but in terms of family history, it can be said that there are very few people who can compare with their family in Britain and even in Europe as a whole. The Barnes family's first family records began in the Alexandrian era, and then went through the Roman era, the Dark Ages, the Middle Ages, and so on, and the family blood has never been broken for more than 2,000 years. Someone once said that the Barness are a family favored by God, so they can continue to persevere in the changes of the times. However, the members of the family who really belong to the core of the Barneys family scoff at this kind of talk, because they all know that if they really want to talk about affection, it will not be God's turn, and God may even be their enemy in a sense.

Among the core members of the Barneys family, there will be one or two people in each generation who have a magical ability to find certain magical power items from some monuments that can be used by them. These things can prolong their lives and increase their strength, these people are called guardians by the family members, and they are also the biggest secret of the Barneys family's survival, so the Barneys family has always spared no effort in the ancient diggers.

Although there are many monuments in the world, there are very few monuments that are truly useful to the Barneys. Their family has continued to this generation, and there are not many people who can truly become the guardian of the family, and the last guardian of the family is more than four hundred years old. The power that prolonged his life came from the ancient Inca, but his strength has gradually weakened over the years, and he has grown old.

Kevin Barneys is the only one of the Barneys family with that ability, and the Barneys decide to do everything in their power to help him gain the power that makes him a qualified Guardian. So, they formed several expeditions and went deep into Egypt. Searching for those monuments that might be possible, to their ultimate delight, Kevin senses that there seems to be a force in the Eastern Desert that can help him.

The Barneys organized an expedition to dig deep into the land of the dead to excavate the monuments, but fortunately the quicksand did not appear, but the bad thing was that after entering the death zone, Kevin began to burn and fall unconscious, and often spoke some language that he had never heard before. This situation was considered a good phenomenon by the people of the Barneys family, so they relied on the Cheng dΓΉ of Kevin Yaki. Found the ruins of a temple that is now being excavated.

After half a month of excavation and cleaning, the roof of a temple appeared in front of everyone. This roof is very large and different from the spire-shaped roofs of other temples. It is a flat-topped field that looks like a giant football field. What is even more surprising is that after the roof was cleared, everyone realized that the entire roof was completely made of a huge piece of volcanic rock. Leaving aside how the roof was polished, the question of how to place it on top of the temple alone is enough to exhaust the minds of any Egyptian scholar. Some of the Egyptian natives employed by the Barnes family believed that it was the power of the gods, and with the cobras and scorpions carved all over the roof, and the cursed words on the edge of the roof, the hearts of the people gradually began to become unstable,6 and a large number of people left. The excavation was eventually stopped.

"Those damn maggots, still won't get back to work. Jerry Barneys walked in from outside the tent, dragged off the belt holster from his waist, grabbed the kettle and drank most of it, then let out a long sigh of relief and asked his aunt Anna Barnice, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, "How is Kevin?"

"The situation is getting worse and worse, and my strength can't last long. Anna's hands were shrouded in a white mist, and a chill was revealed in the mist. Then the mist extended like a long snake, gradually enveloping Kevin, who was lying on the bed with a flushed face, and it was only then that Kevin's face gradually returned to normal and his breathing became calmer.

"If that doesn't work, we can go back for the time being, and when things get better in Kevinland, we'll hire some people to dig again. Kerry Barnes framed his drooping eyes and said.

"No!" Anna and Jerry both objected in unison, and Anna stood up and used her ability to collect the water vapor from the surrounding air into a kettle, and said, "The people who left a few days ago must have spread the word that the temple had been excavated here." Now those expeditions and archaeological teams are afraid that they will all rush this way. If we leave, come back. What you see may be a ruin. ”

"In that case, then let's just stop digging, we can make a hole in the top and go inside the temple. "I've already looked around the temple, and the outer wall of the temple seems to be sealed, so there will definitely be no sand flowing into the temple." We can make a hole in the weakest wall in the northeast corner of the temple and put ropes in it so that we can get inside the temple before it gets dark. ”

As the person in charge of this family expedition, Anna thought for a moment, nodded, and said to Kerry, "You immediately organize people to chisel the walls of the temple," and then said to Jerry: "You lead your men and Mei An to immediately go around to intercept those expeditions that try to get closer, and you must not let them rush to the temple before we find anything." Then he paused and said, "If necessary, kill them all, for the glory of the family." ”

"For the glory of the family!" both stood up in unison, but Jerry's voice was full of excitement, while Kerry's voice was full of hesitation.
