Movie World I Am A King

Chapter 1376: The Opened Coffin

No matter how strong something is, it is difficult to withstand a violent breach——

Besides, the coffin of this mummy has a history of at least three thousand years, and it is very good that it can be preserved so far. It was violently pried off by a few American guys with steel crowbars...

I only heard the sound of a machine spring breaking, and then the lid of the coffin creaked and was opened... The lid of the coffin fell to the ground with a bang, and a mummy with a distorted face and a ferocious expression suddenly appeared in the crowd before……

"Fack—!"

"What the hell is this?"

"Damn it... scared me to death!"

A group of Americans were taken aback by the sudden attack. Anyone who opened the coffin and suddenly jumped out of a mummy would be shocked...

However, after everyone settled down, they found that the mummy had not been resurrected, it was only because they pried the coffin up there, so it might be because of the shaking of the coffin that the mummy was shaken out just now. It was a bit caught off guard, so it scared them...

Henderson looked at the grim looking mummy in front of him, and asked curiously, "Mr. Daniels, are you sure this thing can be sold for a high price?"

After asking for a long time, Henderson found that the leader did not answer his question, which made him unable to help but look at his leader, Mr. Daniels...

At this time, Daniels was squatting in front of the coffin board that fell to the ground, looking at it solemnly...

"What's the matter? Mr. Daniels, is there something wrong?"

Daniels' solemnity made the whole team quiet down. A group of American men surrounded Daniels and squatted down... imitating his appearance, looking at the coffin board on the ground...

"Look at these scratches..." Daniels stroked the scratches on the coffin lid with his hand... "This guy was imprisoned alive... and he was in great pain..."

"Live burial? This may increase our price, a mummy buried alive..." a American guy thought he was humorous.

"Idiot..." After Daniels gave him a blank look, he picked up a dried beetle corpse next to the coffin... "This is a scarab, a carnivorous insect. By eating corpses, they can survive in the coffin." It has been in stock for several years... This guy must have committed a heinous crime during his lifetime, so he was executed with the cruelest [insect bite] punishment..."

At this time, a bold American guy walked up to the mummy, looked at the mummy carefully, then touched it lightly, and shouted in surprise: "Hey, guys, I think you should come Look at this... This guy is still wet, I can't believe it, you know - three thousand years have passed, even a coffin of water should evaporate completely..."

"That's not water, it's just the fat from the corpse..." Daniels' words made the guy who just touched the mummy feel disgusted and wiped his hands vigorously on his body...

"Did this guy seduce Pharaoh's wife? If there is such a story, maybe he can buy more money..."

"That's a good idea, Burns..."

"Thank you for the compliment—" Burns lightly pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and smiled triumphantly...

"..." Although Daniels didn't speak, he gave this group of guys a [stupid] comment in his heart...

In his opinion, these guys only saw the monetary value of this mummy, but did not think of the risks involved...

As far as he knows, in all the well-preserved ancient Egyptian documents, there is no record that this kind of punishment of "insect eating" was carried out. It's not that they didn't want to carry it out, but that the ruling class couldn't afford to carry out this kind of punishment s consequence……

According to records - if the sinners who were killed by this punishment are resurrected, they will bring ten disasters to Egypt - bloody floods, frog plagues, flies plagues, lice plagues, animal plagues, blisters plagues, fires and rains, The plague of locusts, the plague of darkness, the plague of the firstborn.

This—perhaps the only mummy ever found to have been devoured by insects, the value of which is simply inestimable...

Those uneducated bumpkins don't understand its value at all...

While thinking proudly, Daniels continued to observe the scratches on the coffin lid... He suddenly found that there was a sentence engraved with his nails on it—"This is...?"

"What's the matter? Mr. Daniels..."

Although this group of Americans doesn't have much cultural knowledge, but—they have their own cleverness, that is—always pay attention to their leader, so as not to miss the opportunity to make a fortune...

Therefore, when they saw the astonished expression on Daniels' face, the crowd gathered around again.

"This is a sentence... This guy left a sentence before he died..."

"What is written? What does this sentence mean?" Those who had no knowledge of ancient Egyptian cuneiform could only ask Daniels.

"The meaning of this sentence is..." The expression on Daniels' face became serious again... "Death—it's just the beginning!"

As Daniels said the meaning of this sentence, everyone felt a gust of cold wind hanging from their bodies... This made them shrink their necks uncontrollably.

When they turned their attention to the distorted and ferocious mummy again, no one was in the mood to joke...

"Everyone take a break, we have more important work to do in a while..." As if wanting to break the heavy atmosphere, Daniels issued an order to rest, but—obviously, the effect of this order was not good ...

The Egyptian laborers, who were so excited when they heard about the break, gathered together in twos and threes, discussing something in their own language in a panicked manner...

Of course Daniels knew what these laborers wanted to do—you could guess what these guys were thinking with their heels. They just thought this place was too scary and wanted to quit...

In this regard, Daniels is not afraid at all, where is this place? This is deep in the desert...

Whoever dares to give him a kick, he dares to leave that guy alone in the desert, as for - don't want to do it?

yes - you can go -

But—the horses and supplies owned by the laborer belong to him—you can leave if you want, leave the horses and supplies, and they can go on the road alone...

Daniels believed that no one would dare to do this, walking out of the desert on his own legs without food and water? That's suicide, okay?

So, Daniels is not worried at all about these guys quitting... As for the riots? Just kidding, only his people have weapons here, what do unarmed laborers use against them? Do you use your body to block the eyes? Now, people shouldn't be so stupid...

On the other side, on the outskirts of Hamna Tower, there is a group of guys wearing black robes and black turbans, sitting on horseback, staring at the camp of the tomb robbers... They are not others, they are They are the descendants of the pharaoh's guards. As the city's defenders, they certainly have their own ways to enter Hamna Tower at other times.
