Chapter 104 Talisman of Life

"Shh, don't be afraid, be good, tempura is the best."

As Kawaii San stepped over the wall, he coaxed the fat cat in his arms with a weird Japanese song tune. The timid and cautious Japanese looked up and was startled by the formation in front of him. He struggled to

He freed up a hand to push up his glasses that had slid to the tip of his nose.

"what happens?"

Loud sneers came.

Meng Weiqing glanced lightly, and those harsh voices disappeared. He turned to Kawaii Sang: "Mr. Kawai, may I ask where you were just now, and did you encounter anything?"

Kawaiisan raised Tempura with difficulty: "When I chased him, he was squatting on the steps. There seemed to be a room in front of him, but there was no light and I couldn't see anything, so I came back first."

After hearing this, Buswell left a few people behind and took the rest to the place where Kawaii San had just come out. Stephanie naturally followed. Before stepping into the altar in the mural, she turned around and raised her eyebrows.

He glanced at me with his eyebrows.

My face was sore from the beating.

Xia Shangzhou touched my shoulder, Teacher Bai smiled at me comfortingly, and even Meng Weiqing nodded to me to protect my self-esteem. But after that, they all went behind the mural.

For fear of being wiped out, He Rongchuan and Lou Shiqi were left here in 279, and the unwise Socrates also stayed behind reluctantly as the Egyptians' backup. Meng Weiqing specifically told me that I could stay here too.

.

He Rongchuan clapped his hands: "Dr. Wang is right. There are evil ways everywhere in this place. It's better to be careful."

Lou Shiqi also helped.

I nodded with an awkward smile, and then looked at the mural in front of me. Those cute and harmless baby animals had sly smiles on their faces, as if they were waiting for us to come to them.

Although my face is still hurting, I still feel that those strange and difficult-to-identify contents must have full meaning. This temple obviously has a preference for the blood of Li Yuan and the priest brother and sister, and the "door" on the mural is indeed made of Li Yuan's blood.

It was opened after being sacrificed, and everything coincided with the content on the murals. Although I don't believe in resurrecting corpses, and I don't think the ancient Egyptians could think of this, but the inexplicable fear and disgust still gripped me tightly.

.

Seeing that Li Yuan was about to crash into the mural with the sacrifices flowing in his veins and Alex, who was probably also a mobile food truck, I could only bite the bullet and follow.

Unexpectedly, Patrick stopped me.

"Wang, you are right, there is something wrong with this mural. The ancient Egyptian concept of time is different from ours, and interpreting their myths requires another perspective. But no matter what, time cannot give birth to gods, nor can it be returned.

life."

"Then why something is born from the body of Bennu? Am I understanding it wrong?"

"Time is the eternal enemy of ancient Egypt." Patrick shook his head. "Don't let the things in front of you affect your judgment."

Chang Xiao also said similar things to me. How much did these people hide from me?

But I don't have time for charades.

"Before we came down, what were the Egyptians saying when they were offering sacrifices? What did Jacqueline know that made her stay up there?" I asked.

Jacqueline's death was a big shock to me, not only because she was killed by "one of our own". Now that I think about it, when she came to me and told me that she wanted to make plans for herself, she must have noticed some signs.

.This has always made me uneasy. I always feel that there is something very important that I have overlooked.

"You will know, but not now. You have to go to the end." Patrick seemed to have made up his mind, showed me a smile, and then followed the team. Looking at his back, I don't know why I feel...

Bad premonition.

Except for the left-behind children, everyone else followed the altar in the acacia tree and entered behind the mural. There were long steps going down, and there were piles of cat-shaped objects on both sides illuminated by artificial light sources.

"Why did the ancient Egyptians like cats so much that they made such sculptures?" Arno scanned both sides with the light of his flashlight.

I looked at the "sculpture" at my feet carefully, and then took a breath. "These are cat mummies."

Then I subconsciously raised my head, and the top of the low corridor was covered with Sekhmet's scarlet eyes. It was almost infiltrating people from all directions. I shrank towards the middle of the road and bumped into Alex. She was looking at the scattered cat mummies.

There was surprise and disgust on his face.

Arno cursed in Italian and stepped back from the side. Li Yuan didn't know what he was looking at behind just now, but now he walked quickly behind Alex and me.

The road is not very wide, so Alex and I can walk side by side. For example, if Li Yuan and Yano walked side by side, someone would definitely step on the cat's mummy. Kawaii San even chased Tempura in a panic.

It was impossible to ignore the mummified cats all over the floor when we came in, and how could Tempura run through such a road and then stop at the door of the room? What makes me even more confused is why Kawaii-san lied.

The corridor began to become narrower at some point, and everyone had to walk through it one by one.

After walking for about seven or eight minutes, the group arrived at the end. The suddenly opened room had some tables with unknown purposes. The light source could only illuminate the innermost stone wall, and everything around it was dark.

There is a huge symbol of life deeply carved on the stone wall, which is called "handled cross" in Latin. A pair of hands is holding up this earliest worshiped symbol in ancient Egypt. Those hands are "Ka"

, represents the soul in hieroglyphs.

Judging from the layout of the room, we believe that this is a place where priests or workers prepare before carrying out their duties, no matter what their duties here are. When we got closer, we saw neatly arranged modern equipment next to the stone wall.

Although these equipment are relatively backward now, they are definitely from this century and were once the most sophisticated ones.

"Hey, pay attention, we seem to have a companion." A man with a Russian accent said nervously.

It turns out that besides us, there is already one person here. That person is obviously not Jacqueline, nor Bruce, who left the team earlier. The person wearing a strange desert costume is standing in a corner not far away, facing the wall.

There is an open door next to it.

We soon learned the identity of the man.

After seeing the equipment arranged in an orderly manner on the ground, Morgan took a breath and Alex covered his mouth.

"This belongs to Eva and the others. She has indeed been here." Morgan said excitedly.

Alex's eyes were moist, and her lips opened and closed silently, clearly saying the word "mother". Li Yuan and I looked at each other, and it was true.

Morgan couldn't help but walked towards the man in the corner, but was stopped by Karl.

"What are you doing! I'm going to ask him where the others are!"

"What do you want to ask? Don't tell me that you expect those Egyptians to channel spirits for you." Facing the angry Morgan, Karl said coldly, "That person is already dead."

Shocked, Morgan subconsciously looked at Buswell. The expression on the bearded face was incomprehensible, but his body was tense. He signaled Morgan not to act rashly, and then asked his men to go check on the man who had been standing here for an unknown length of time.

people.

The brass earrings and the Russians went up and put the man to the ground with a rope. The body fell down softly, as if it was still alive. But the gray and defeated look on his face that could not be erased even by bright light showed that this man had already died.

Lost his breath.

A symbol of life was engraved where the man originally faced him. The funny thing is that a life disappeared under its gaze.

The deceased had obvious Arab features on his face. I breathed a sigh of relief, luckily he was not Alex’s father. But the next second, Hassan and Laila were about to pounce on him.

I almost forgot, according to Mustafa and Sir Black, among the people who came here twelve years ago, in addition to Alex's parents and Sir Black, there was also Mustafa's son, the priest brother and sister.

uncle.

It's not a good idea to touch a strange corpse rashly. I grabbed them quickly. But facing two pairs of sad amber eyes, I didn't know what to say.

Unexpectedly, Alex actually spoke: "They came in twelve years ago. Nothing we can do now will help. It is more important to protect our own safety."

There were no traces of tears in this girl's eyes. I only saw a dazzling light. It seemed that she would not give up hope until she saw her mother.

"How strange." Teacher Bai stood up and stepped away from the body. He whispered in his hometown dialect: "This person doesn't seem to be dead."
