bit stealing game

Chapter 35 People who belong to the desert

A cult, just a cult.

Hassan was still waiting for the reaction of Li Yuan and others, but the other priest of Tottou couldn't wait any longer. He asked Li Yuan and others to come over quickly, and at the same time, he picked up the cane used in the ceremony and gestured towards me.

I want to tell Li Yuan that these people are just bluffing, but don’t fall for it. But I can’t guarantee that my eyes will still be there after I say this. I still want these eyes, but I don’t want the blood.

Li Yuan and others released it.

Just when I was in a dilemma, Alex, who had been silent, spoke up.

"Have you disinfected this knife?"

No one expected that she would suddenly speak out, let alone ask such a question.

Alex, who was being stared at by everyone, shrugged: "Don't look at me, this is just common sense. If you don't disinfect it, it will easily cause problems. It should be difficult to get vaccinated in this place."

Arno immediately picked up the conversation next to her: "Yes, and the three of us need three knives, otherwise cross-infection will be troublesome." After he finished speaking, he glanced at Alex: "Let me make it clear first, I am not doubting

You have a virus on your body, it’s just for safety reasons.”

Alex didn't even give him a look, he just asked these Egyptians if I wanted to bleed.

The Thoth who just answered the conversation didn't look very smart. He turned his head wearing a crested ibis hood, hoping to get some instructions from the surrounding priests. I don't know what he saw under those hoods, so I just listened to what he said:

"You all need to bleed."

Alex nodded: "Then you must have four daggers, and each one must be sterilized. I see there are torches around, you can sterilize them at high temperature first. I happen to have alcohol cotton here, just wipe it again." She said while

I actually took out a bag of medical supplies from my shoulder bag, and asked politely, "Do you mind getting alcohol on your dagger?"

I thought it was wonderful. If I hadn't been afraid of irritating Tot and the others and getting stabbed several times, I would have liked to applaud Alex now.

Seeing that several people were messing around, Hassan didn't want to cause trouble, so he directly pulled me up and walked towards the altar.

I hurriedly used the Thousand Jin Pendant and sat down on the ground. At the same time, I shouted: "Hey, hey, wait a minute. You clearly know that it's not me you're looking for, so I'll save my job."

Hassan paused for a moment. I was just yelling blindly, but when I saw this, I thought: Sure enough, they knew who they were looking for from the beginning.

During the stalemate, there was a sound of footsteps that could not be missed. More people poured in through the open door.

We looked back again.

Arno, who had turned pale with fright just now, showed a proud expression. It turned out that the gesture he made to me when he first came in was to ask me to delay, and there would be reinforcements behind him. Italians use gestures to speak, but I couldn't understand it.

It scared me for nothing.

The visitors were Lou Shiqi, Teacher Bai and Meng Weiqing, as well as the United Nations team leader Morgan, the tattooed man Buswell and other foreigners.

Both teams are well-trained, and with so many people coming in, there are not as many as Arno alone.

Hassan and the others saw that a head-on confrontation was futile, so they grabbed me as a shield.

Everyone fell into a stalemate.

I was secretly scolding these Egyptians for being unkind, but I didn't expect that the deadlock was broken in an instant.

A woman pushed aside the crowd and rushed in front of a mural impatiently. Her golden curly hair created a dazzling light in the temple, as if she was the one being possessed.

It was the French Egyptologist Jacqueline. She took a dramatic breath, kept muttering something in French, and incidentally criticized the act of lighting torches near the mural. It seems that people really do this when they are excited.

Ignoring the environment. In the eyes of this Frenchman, there is only ancient Egyptian civilization and no ancient Egyptian priests.

Fortunately, someone was normal. Morgan looked at Alex first to make sure she was safe, and then glanced at the altar: "What is going on now? Have you found the person you are looking for?"

Sure enough, does Morgan also know that the Egyptians are looking for someone?

I glanced at Hassan who was conscientiously holding a dagger to remove my appendix.

This man's face is still calm, but beads of sweat have been patted down on his body, which has only a few pieces of fabric. Tsk, with such a psychological quality, do you still want to eat this bowl of rice? If I had known that my waist would have to be confessed, it would be better to stay here.

I'm going to change my cell phone.

I felt at a loss and glanced at Hassan: "Hey, be careful. This is the only hostage. If he accidentally stabbed him to death, you will be the unlucky ones."

After seeing 279 coming, I felt relieved.

Li Yuan and others came just now. Although it was not for free, if they really fought, they probably wouldn't get any benefits. But 279 is different, it is famous. In the past, every team was a team that licked blood from the tip of a knife. Now, now

If you don't develop abnormally, you can take it to the next level. It's not easy to deal with a few cult priests, and the United Nations doesn't seem to be a vegetarian either.

Unexpectedly, Hassan had no reaction to Morgan's words. Instead, Meng Weiqing said: "Found it."

My heart tightened and I looked over. Did these two groups of people work together? If so, before I could finish thinking about the worst-case scenario, I heard Teacher Bai ask with concern: "Wang Yu

,They didn’t hurt you, did they?”

Oh, it turned out you were here to find me.

I responded hurriedly: "Don't worry, I still need to finish everything."

Teacher Bai nodded, then turned to Hassan next to me and asked: "What are you asking our team members to do? If you don't mind, can you let her come back?"

Hassan naturally realized that the situation was not good, so he said: "We are just asking them to help. After all, we want the same thing as you."

"Help?" Teacher Bai repeated softly, but inexplicably with a sense of calmness and dignity, "This is not the attitude of asking for help."

I still care about me. The image of 279 has grown taller in my mind.

Hassan didn't say anything, but Socrates, who was sandwiching me on the left and right with him, couldn't help but muttered: "Please come too." As soon as he finished speaking, he was kicked by someone behind him.

One kick.

Seeing that the Egyptians were not ready to let him go, Li Yuan became a little bit uneasy. I thought it was nothing. Now that 279 is here, they can't do anything to me. Just as I was about to relax, I saw a man with short black hair.

The foreigner took out his gun without saying a word.

The dark muzzles of the guns were polished by the fire and seemed to have been opened. Like an order, more people raised their guns.

Unexpectedly, these "reinforcements" were coming and would push us to a dead end.

As soon as these people took out their guns, the first person who jumped out was the French archaeologist Jacqueline. Li Yuandu was a step slower than her. Arno just raised his hand and waved it stupidly, but before he could speak, the French

The people yelled: "You ignorant fools, put down your guns. You cannot be held responsible if the mural is damaged."

Jacqueline's blue eyes were ignited with anger and were astonishingly bright. They were filled with gilded justice.

However, the men with guns were unmoved. The one who picked her fight was the short-haired young man who raised the gun first. From his cat-eared hairline, I remembered that this was one of the two people who had a good chat with Lord Black.

1. The man turned his gun and pointed it at Jacqueline, and said with a smile: "I don't know who is the stupid one. Do you think anyone here cares about these murals? What do you think we are here for?"

Jacqueline was choked. It was as if she realized who she was dealing with now, and her blond hair dimmed. Seeing that she had stopped, those people were even more proud, and some even sneered.

.

"Karl, you can't treat a lady like this." Arno saw that Jacqueline was frightened and stood up unnecessarily. Karl didn't care about him, but just shook the gun again. Arno shrank his neck,

Still stood in front of Jacqueline.

The confusion between the French and Italians did not change the explosive situation.

However, since Carl's gang clearly didn't care about my life or death, I, as a hostage, had no sense of participation. Looking at the chaos on the other side, I even felt detached, like I was watching the fire from afar. It was as if the scene in front of me was just a melodrama, and I

He was an unlucky onlooker who spent no money. Now he was pointed at by a row of black guns, and his sense of crisis gradually increased. It was like the anesthetic was gradually wearing off, and his limbs were gradually taken over by the influx of fear.

In the blink of an eye the situation changed from us versus the Egyptians to them versus me and the Egyptians.

I never thought that just by going out on field duty with 279 and the others, I could risk my life.

For some reason, neither Meng Weiqing nor Morgan made a sound to stop Carl's behavior. Instead, Li Yuan walked towards the gun.

"A gun won't solve the problem. Why don't we ask those Egyptians what they want to do."

Karl did not comment on Li Yuan's words, but another big guy said: "Is it your turn to take care of our affairs?"

Li Yuan's voice was steady: "If you don't put down your guns, this will be my problem."

The big guy made a disdainful expression and said, "Even if we don't have a gun, you can't control us." As he said that, he tilted his head towards his companions, and then suddenly pulled the trigger.

No one expected that man would dare to shoot at the slightest disagreement.

I was shrinking my neck and lamenting that my life was over, but I only heard a click. Although the sound was not loud, it was clear enough in the silent temple.

When I came back to my senses, I realized that Li Yuan was already standing in front of the big man. He flipped his wrist, and the gun that was pointed at us a moment ago has now changed its owner. There was some surprise on the man's face.

"Look at how scared you are, his gun is not loaded." Karl said nonchalantly on the side. He looked at Li Yuan with interest and played with his own gun: "But this is not necessarily the case with mine.

.”

As he spoke, he moved the muzzle of the gun away from Arno and pointed it at me.

This is simply a disaster.

Shouldn't this group of people be here to save me? Why am I now a target?

I looked at the gun in Karl's hand, then at the dagger Hassambi held on my waist, and silently hid behind him.

Li Yuan was still holding the big gun that he didn't know was loaded or unloaded and was in a stalemate with them. I thought it would be better to do less than to do more, but I found that these people were talking to themselves. No one trusted the other and was not worthy of the other's trust.

.

I didn’t want to give my life to such a person. So I swallowed my saliva and huddled behind Hassan to smooth things over: “Wait a minute, wait a minute, everyone has something to say. There’s no need to make things like this. I believe there must be a misunderstanding here.

.Why don’t we listen to what the Egyptian priests have to say? Since everyone is here, maybe we can reach the same destination by different routes.”

I brought out the words that the Egyptians used to fool me, but no one paid attention to me. Those who just used knives and guns when they disagreed seemed to have received instructions. They did not move at all during Karl's performance, and then they were able to control the situation.

.

I didn't dare to risk my life, so I could only bite the bullet and continue: "Even if we are not traveling together, there is no need to kill them all." I said as I retreated, and finally I was able to squeeze in behind the Egyptians. Hassan did not stop me.

, Socrates gave me a dissatisfied look. It seemed to mean why I didn't stand up. I glared back at him. These people were arrested by me, and now they still have the nerve to ask me to block the gun?

"She's right. Let's first listen to why these Egyptians are here and what their purpose is." At this time, Morgan was finally willing to speak.

Karl gave him face and said easily: "Oh? So tell me, where is this place and what do you want?"

Unlike when he prevaricated us, Hassan said simply this time: "I know you are looking for the [Temple of All Knowing], and now you are here." As he said that, he stepped aside.

The Egyptians also turned slightly sideways and gave way to the altar and the huge mural that were blocked behind. After everyone saw it, they resumed their formation in a straight line.

"What do you mean?" Karl felt that he had been fooled by them.

Indeed, if I could tell the doorway here from this glance, I wouldn't have thought this was the Temple of Osiris just now and was fooled for so long. I was sneering in my heart when I heard Morgan say: "They didn't lie. Here.

It should be Thutmose III’s [Temple of Omniscience] where everything is recorded.”

I was stunned when I heard this name. Which eye did Morgan recognize that this is the [Temple of Omniscience]? Just by the blink of an eye, the dog could figure it out? No one said this was the temple of Thutmose III.

, how could he, a layman, see that? He really didn’t even want to pretend.

Now if you tell me this is not calculated, I won’t believe it. I just spent a long time fussing over the damaged temple, didn’t I say it was the [Temple of Omniscientity]? The grandson of the co-author knows that it is a fake.

They were busy making all these fake tricks, did they deliberately use me as bait?

"Then who are you? You said you have the same purpose as us. Since you know we are looking for this temple, why do you need to lead us here again?" Karl asked again.

Hassan said: "We are the priests of ancient Egypt."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone say: "We have eyes."

It was a clear teenage voice. I looked over. Sure enough, it was the green-eyed man who drank at the dance and seemed to be underage. He had no reaction to the embarrassing situation he had caused, and just shrugged: "Don't you see?

Huh? Their identities are pretty obvious."

Being disturbed by him like this, Hassan couldn't stand it anymore.

The considerate Morgan spoke again to save the situation: "Karl is right. No matter who you are, since the purpose is the same, what good is it to you to bring us here? Do you think we can be manipulated by you?"

"Everyone who comes here wants to achieve their goals. And if they want to achieve their goals, they have to perform rituals."

With Morgan's foreshadowing, Hassan continued:

"And you and I are both part of this sacrifice."
