The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse

After the pharaoh's guards withdrew, Yankee, O'Connor and others also settled down again, and everyone cleaned up the mess and went to rest early.

Although the pharaoh guards gave an ultimatum, early the next morning, the two groups of people went deep into the underground of the ancient city again and carried out the excavation work again.

For the Yankees, coming all the way to Egypt is not just to eat sand, it's just that they can't find the treasure.

But now it is obvious that the treasure is in front of them, so they should give up? Nor can you hold a gun to their heads.

Besides, how many people died? It wasn't the American man who died, but a group of native Egyptians. It was their honor to die for the American man's plan to make a fortune. And they paid for it too, didn't they?

At first they paid the money happily, but now these workers should do their duty and be worthy of those dollars, aren't they?

As for Evelyn and the others, although Jonathan and the warden came here for gold, the warden is dead now. Although Jonathan loves money, he still listens to his sister more often.

Therefore, although gold and silver treasures are very attractive to them, the purpose of their staying and digging is still to find important archaeological discoveries.

For Evelyn, discovering important historical sites, proving that her views are correct all along, and slapping those old scholars who discriminate against women and look down on her is much more important than digging out any gold and silver treasures.

After all, it is only 1925. Although due to the development of the British Industrial Revolution, more women participated in industrial labor and social activities, and first launched a movement for political rights, but the overall social atmosphere is still discriminatory against women.

It was not until 1932, when the British electoral law was amended, that the majority of British women launched the women's political suffrage movement, which was the prelude to women's struggle for their own social status.

And now... Borrowing the sentence "What does a woman know?" from the Egyptian scholar's evaluation of Evelyn in the original film is enough to summarize the prejudice and discrimination against women in this era.

That's why Evelyn's application for a job at Cambridge University was rejected, and she also desperately hopes to discover some important historical sites in Hamna Tower to prove her ability.

It's just that neither the Yankee nor Evelyn would have thought that what they dug up with their efforts was a secret guarded by the Pharaoh's guard for three thousand years, a terrifying evil spirit suppressed under the yellow sand for three thousand years.

Chen Mo clearly understood that with their excavation, the high priest whose soul had been tortured for three thousand years was about to be released by them, but he had no intention of stopping it.

Although I can prevent them from messing around to seal this high priest, and I can also use the Sun Golden Sutra that I have already obtained to directly save him, but what good is it for Chen Mo?

Although Chen Mo is not an evil person, he couldn't do such a thing as deliberately releasing this evil high priest to cause harm to the world, but he stood by and watched, let the situation develop according to the original plot, and thus gain benefits from it. He can still do it.

What's more, if the high priest is not released to make troubles, how can Chen Mo persuade the Pharaoh's guards to help him control Egypt and drive out the British ruling power in Egypt?

As for how to end after releasing the high priest? The Sun Golden Scripture is in Chen Mo's hands. In the original play, Evelyn can save him with a single spell, but Chen Mo doesn't think he can't do it.

Out of such considerations, Chen Mo did not stop these two groups of people, but watched them dig out the box containing the Black Book of the Dead and open the sarcophagus that sealed the ancient Egyptian high priest.

"Hey, O'Connor! How much do you think these treasures can be sold for?" At night, the Yankees showed off in front of O'Connor with what they got from the box containing the Black Book of the Dead.

Compared with Evelyn and the others who only dug up fresh mummies, these Yankees are more or less rewarding.

However, looking at the things in their hands, Chen Mo smiled at Evelyn who was walking over and said, "Miss Evelyn, don't you want to see the funeral urn I mentioned? It's what they have. "

"The burial urn? Did they dig the burial urn?" Evelyn ran over curiously when she heard what Chen Mo said, and looked at the things in the American's hands.

The Americans held several white jars, which seemed to be carved from white alabaster, and decorated with gold and lapis lazuli, which looked very luxurious.

However, precisely because of this, the three Americans regarded it as a treasure.

Hearing what Chen Mo and Evelyn said at this moment, the three Americans didn't know what a funeral urn was, but seeing that both Chen Mo and Evelyn seemed to know something about it, so one of them Asked Chen Mo: "What is the funeral urn?"

"The burial urn, the direct name should be the canopy altar or the canopic jar, and the more formal name is the burial urn." Seeing the three Americans asking, Chen Mo also asked They explained: "In ancient Egypt, when the deceased was mummified, his liver, lungs, stomach, and intestines would be removed from the body and stored in four jars, ordered by Horus. The four sons Amshet, Habi, Dom Taif and Kaibshannaf are guarded respectively.

According to the funeral customs of the ancient Egyptians, Amshet with a human head guards the liver, and the jars are placed in the south; Habi with the baboon head guards the lungs, and the jars are placed in the north; Domtev with the jackal head guards the stomach, and the jars are placed In the east, while the falcon-headed Keb Shannaf guards the intestines, the jars are placed in the west.

These internal organs are used by the dead in the afterlife, and this custom lasted from the period of the Old Kingdom of ancient Egypt to the late period of ancient Egypt. It was not until the Ptolemy dynasty that the belief in the gods of ancient Egypt gradually declined, and this custom was gradually adopted. Abandoned, the internal organs of the deceased were simply wrapped and put together with the mummy. "

After listening to Chen Mo's introduction, the Americans obviously disliked the jars in their hands, but they were reluctant to part with such exquisite containers. After all, compared with their uses, these jars were too gorgeous, so they brought them back But it can be sold for a lot of money.

The few of them came to Egypt to make a fortune. If they couldn't bring some valuables back, they would obviously lose money on this trip.

But at this time they seemed to remember a detail, and asked Chen Mo: "But when we opened the box, we saw five cans, one of which was broken, and it seemed to be decorated with a cat's head or a lion's head."

"Are you reading that right?" Hearing what the American said, Chen Mo's eyes suddenly changed.
