Chapter 115 Möbius Strip

Li Yuan and I just stepped on the backbone of Osiris and walked into the mural.

When I was standing on the ground looking at the mural just now, I only saw the golden liquid all over the wall. But when I walked up to the backbone of Osiris, I saw something completely different. The originally depressing liquid seemed to be separated and flowed freely.

It flows under our feet. If I were not sure that I was in the Sahara, I almost thought it was a thick version of the underworld. And the backbone of Osiris stretched forward endlessly, paving a road of no return.

Not only that, the nearly 180-degree flip of the perspective was refreshing, and my heart almost couldn't bear the excitement. But even if Li Yuan knew some gecko wall-walking skills, it should only be a 90-degree flip, so why did everyone do it?

What's above our heads? What's even stranger is that the two sides basically looked at each other head to head, but neither of them showed the unlucky behavior of being hung upside down.

All of this made my jaw hit the floor, if gravity had any effect.

"Mobius strip!" The scientist who was rescued from Apep's mouth by Lou Shiqi exclaimed. He had been silent before, but now he blurted out the words and then stopped talking.

Teacher Bai also responded quickly: "So as long as you walk up, you can't walk out again?"

Möbius strip? My eyes also widened. If there is really a Möbius strip behind Senet, then this is indeed "eternal" in a sense.

But in this case, are we still standing on the same dimension as others?

Seeing that no one was walking up this weird Hades spine, I was thinking of retreating, but Li Yuan was going to move forward regardless. I let out a "tsk" and looked up helplessly at the people hanging upside down.

I had no choice but to follow him.

“Wow, it’s so cool here!”

Arno's voice came from behind rather than from above. When I looked back, the little guy was looking around. Alex pulled him, and the two of them hurried up together, and the rest of the people followed soon after.

They were all extremely courageous people. They each exclaimed a few times before stepping on the underworld and walking towards infinity.

Except that the road under my feet was now empty on both sides, I walked forward nervously and asked Li Yuan: "How did you think of walking towards the mural?"

Li Yuan did not forget to observe the situation around him while walking. He glanced at me distractedly and said: "Since it is a game of chess, we must stand on the same position. The painting on the mural is very clear. If you stay in the mud and struggle,

That can only serve as nourishment for 'gods'. Instead of doing that, why not try to be 'gods' yourself."

Are you going to be a god yourself? I looked at Li Yuan in surprise. His calm profile made it hard for me to tell whether he was joking or not.

"Dr. Wang, where do you think we are going now?" Kawaiisan came over and asked cautiously. He also deliberately pushed his glasses that were entangled with thin strips of cloth.

The Japanese were worried that Kamisama would not be satisfied with his sacrifice.

"According to the [Book of the Dead] and ancient Egyptian funeral customs, we should have successfully passed the checkpoint and are walking in [Duat], the underworld of ancient Egypt." I moved my eyes away from Li Yuan.

Kai, answered Kawaii San.

But the problem now is not that God is dissatisfied with those sacrifices, but that God is dissatisfied with us. After all, it is very possible that we don’t know even if the sacrifices are delivered to our door.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, we walked from the empty "Huangquan Road" into the long and deep corridor. At first, a total of four or five people could pass through it side by side, but the further we walked in, the narrower it became, and even when we got to the back, we had to

We lowered our heads and bent over. There were deep carvings on the stone walls on both sides. As we moved forward, the murals became vivid with the change of light. It felt like there was something besides us walking together.

.

Alex called me gently: "Are you okay?"

I came back to my senses, smiled at her and said I was fine. Alex didn't say anything, nodded slightly and continued walking. I stopped her. "What do you think of the air quality here?"

Alex subconsciously wrinkled her nose and sniffed. When I saw this, I couldn't help but smile. She looked at me dissatisfied.

"You also think the air here is fine, right?"

Alex nodded, and then showed a clear look: "There is a problem only if there is no problem. This place should have been dusty for a long time, and we have been going underground. Logically speaking, even if it is not more humid, there cannot be no changes. That is

Say, where does this really lead to?"

"Maybe, but I have no idea where it leads."

Alex is not a person who wants to get to the bottom of things, so he gave up when he saw that I didn’t have any answers here. We never stopped while we were talking, but it was like a ghost beating a wall, and this road never came to an end.

If the description of Duat in the Middle Kingdom is followed, then Duat is 1,200 kilometers long, which would take us days and nights to cover. And there is no way to tell the direction in the corridor.

, who knows where we will end up if we just keep walking.

"We walked a lot southeast from where we came down." Teacher Bai suddenly said. Although I have always known that his perception of directions is different from ours, this human GPS is still amazing.

If it's in the southeast direction, wouldn't it be heading towards the Valley of the Kings?

"If we look at it the other way around, for the Valley of the Kings, our location should be in line with the North Star." Li Yuan said, and he glanced at Teacher Bai. "But if this is really a Möbius strip,

That’s hard to say.”

After walking for an unknown amount of time, even the well-trained mercenaries couldn't help but ask for a rest. Meng Weiqing asked us to check our supplies while we were repairing on the spot. Xia Shangzhou sat down next to me and handed

I have a kettle.

"I haven't seen you drinking water for a long time. Don't worry, we brought enough things."

Don’t worry if it’s inconvenient, we’ve prepared everything. Those foldable boxes in your bag can be opened and used, and they can be sealed after use, so they won’t attract animals even in the wild.”

I was stunned by what Xia Shangzhou said. Although I walked for a long time without stopping, I didn't seem tired at all, and I didn't feel hungry or thirsty. It would be fine if everyone was like this, but they should eat and drink.

Drink, and accept the call of nature. And I have experienced the feeling of "reduced physiological needs" that Li Yuan said. If Xia Shangzhou hadn't persuaded me to eat something, I wouldn't have realized it.

Li Yuan looked over at this time, and he seemed to realize that something was wrong. At this time, let alone sharing the blessings and sufferings, I really wanted to draw a clear line with the Yin family's nonsense. How about a living person coming to Egypt for archaeology?

, I went back with all my problems, and now I’m still talking about not going back this time. I really should have listened to my third uncle’s advice and not get involved with Grandpa Li, even if I stayed in the archaeological site when A Tian Lao Zhang reminded me

The team is great, why do we have to take a trip into this muddy water? Besides, I don’t know what the situation of Lao Zhang and A Tian is like now.

Xia Shangzhou looked at me with a smile and passed the kettle forward. I took it and drank a few gulps.

"Xiao Wang, come and take a look here." Teacher Bai stood not far away and looked at the murals on the corridor. He held a water glass in one hand and pointed to a relief on the wall with one hand.

I responded and walked over. I didn’t know this, but I was shocked when I saw it.

"How did you discover this?" I asked Teacher Bai nervously.

"It has been there since the time I couldn't straighten my waist. This is the second time it has appeared here, so I came here to ask you." Perhaps because I didn't look good, Teacher Bai asked, "What's the matter with this?"

Does it have a special meaning?”

I shook my head. "It's hard to tell now. Apart from this, do you see any other recurring things? For example, the plots on the murals, the complex combination of characters, etc."

"That's the only thing." Teacher Bai said firmly.

That's really strange. I looked at the murals above my head and on both sides of the corridor. At first, I thought they were just the same stereotypes of praising gods and imagining the afterlife in ancient Egypt that were common in tombs and temples.

The psychological pressure in that cramped environment was relatively high, so I didn’t pay much attention to it. Only after Teacher Bai brought it up did I realize that these were by no means ordinary ancient Egyptian works of art. Although they were covered with this layer of clothing, upon closer inspection,

There are obviously sheep heads hanging for sale as dog meat.

And if you look carefully, you can find that the narrative murals on the wall have continuity. Teacher Bai said that he had seen it on that very crowded passage. At that time, we were hunched over and the back of our heads were rubbing against the top of the stone wall.

We were just moving forward with these damn things?

After noticing the conversation between Teacher Bai and me, Morgan and others also joined in, talking about how long everyone had been walking in Duatri, when did the cycle on the mural begin to appear, and why Duat could not get out.

The road is too long to beat the wall.

I listened to their discussion with my ears, but my brain couldn't process the information at all, and I stared at the relief in front of me.

This weird and disgusting pattern doesn't mean what I think it means, does it?
