Under the setting sun, the earth is shining with golden light.

Due to long-term sand erosion, the pyramid has long lost its former sparkle, exuding a hazy matte luster, as if people have traveled through thousands of years of time.

【pyramid!】

【It’s a pyramid!】

【Wuhu, Wuhu, have you arrived yet?】

"Yes, the pyramid."

This pyramid looks completely incompatible with its majesty from a distance. Its appearance is shabby and its surface is even more uneven.

The overall structure is like a staircase, and it only has two floors. It has no resemblance to the tall buildings in people's minds.

"Human beings are afraid of time, and time is afraid of the pyramids. This sentence is an ancient proverb from Egypt. It certainly embodies people's good expectations and longings..."

Bi Fang slowed down Alpha's progress, with inexplicable emotion in his tone.

"It's just that, under the influence of thousands of years of time, it has still left indelible traces on it."

"Did you know that the earliest pyramids were actually white in color?"

【Huh? White? Real or fake?】

【Isn’t this golden?】

[Weird knowledge is about to attack the brain]

“People have found remnants of white limestone on the top of the Giza Pyramid, and fragments of white limestone are scattered around the Giza Pyramid, so scholars speculate that the earliest pyramids were surrounded by a layer of white limestone. The overall look is a brilliant white."

"After this inference appeared, it caused a sensation all over the world."

"Further investigation later revealed that when the ancient Egyptians mined stones, they would classify them."

"Limestone, sandstone, alabaster and granite have different mining methods due to their different hardness. Workers will use different tools to carefully select the limestone with the highest hardness, cut it into square shapes, and then cut the sandstone into large stones with a rectangular bottom."

"What is certain is that the Pyramids of Giza were located in a rocky area, above a quarry where limestone was mined."

"After the foundation construction was completed, people began to transport limestone and lay a white exterior wall on the pyramid. These white limestone walls came from the Tura quarry on the south side of the Nile River."

"After all the steps are completed, the tall pyramid will shine with white light, shining brightly in the sun, becoming the most eye-catching building within a few kilometers."

"Is there any more beautiful building than this?"

【Wow, that must be white gold, right?】

[Definitely the same as diamonds]

The audience was immediately attracted by Bi Fang's description.

"Unfortunately, in the 14th century AD, Sultan Badr al-Din Hassan of the Bahri Dynasty wanted to build a temple and a fortress. Because there was not enough stone, mining limestone would waste a lot of manpower and material resources, so he set his sights on Egypt. He stole many white stones from the layer of limestone covering the pyramid's surface."

"Coupled with the passage of time, the limestone on the top and bottom of the pyramid was gradually eroded by the sun and the moon."

"After experiencing the earthquake on the ground, the limestone on the outer layer of the pyramid finally collapsed completely, and large chunks were scattered around. After being blown by wind and rain, it turned into the rubble it is today, and its original appearance can no longer be seen. .”

"Today, there are more than 80 pyramids discovered in Egypt. Not all of them are as majestic as the Pyramid of Khufu. The shabby ones now are the true portrayal of most of the pyramids. Moreover, even the Pyramid of Khufu is It’s no longer the shining white light it used to be.”

【Pity】

[Same as the Old Summer Palace]

【There is always the sixth one】

But no matter how dilapidated the building in front of us is, it is still one of the wonders of the world, the pyramid, which means that this journey is about to reach its end.

Bi Fang was very excited, but he did not raise his horse or whip to ask Alpha to speed up.

During this trip through the Sahara, he experienced no less than three sandstorms. Scorpions crawled on him when he slept at night, and he had to be careful of the ubiquitous quicksand and poisonous snakes when walking.

The high temperature exceeds 45 degrees during the day, the cold is below zero at night, the double experience of ice and fire, hunger, thirst, and negative states torture the body all the time.

But now that the hope of victory is right in front of us, I don't want it to end so soon.

Bifangler stopped Alpha, stepped off his back, and started walking in the direction of the pyramid.

Egypt is a tourist destination, especially the pyramids within its territory. However, of the more than 80 pyramids, not every one of them is majestic and magnificent. They are scattered in the wilderness, and many of them are ignored.

The same is true for the building in front of Bi Fang.

There were no tourists nearby, standing alone in the wilderness.

The sun slowly set behind Bifang, coating it with a layer of gold.

"Uh, wait, it seems like there's quicksand here."

Bi Fangwu stopped walking while he was walking, looked down at his feet that were mostly stuck, and felt a little depressed.

These quicksands hidden in the desert environment are impossible to guard against. Once you walk, you must be prepared to be swallowed up. However, for an experienced survival master like Bi Fang, quicksands are just a novice copy.

Bi Fang let go of the reins, and Alpha took two steps back alone, away from the quicksand.

Then he threw out his backpack and put the tree stick behind his back as a support point. Bifang began to slowly fall backwards, moving bit by bit, trying to get up from the quicksand.

"If you feel necessary, you can also take off your shoes. Shoes will create a lot of resistance when you try to pull your foot out, especially those with flat and hard soles."

"Wait, something is wrong..."

Lying on the quicksand, Bifang, who was really about to flex his scapular muscles, stopped and felt the touch of the soles of his feet, feeling a little surprised.

It's not soft gravel at all, it's very hard.

Just when Bi Fang was confused, a long-lost voice sounded in his mind.

[Under detection, triggering side mission: Lost Tomb, do you want to accept it? 】

'catch!'

Bifang suddenly felt delighted.

Side mission!

How long has it been since this word appeared?

Mo Hu appeared in Bi Fang's memory for a long time, and he doubted whether the branch line really existed.

It has been almost two years, and I have done only a handful of side missions. I never expected that another one would pop up now, so I naturally chose to take it without any hesitation.

Looking at the name of the mission, it seems that I got lucky and stepped on something unusual...

Ancient ruins were actually discovered here near the pyramids.

Bi Fang stagnated in the quicksand, and the audience in the live broadcast room was still stuck on what he just said.

【What's wrong?】

[What’s wrong, is quicksand stinging my butt? 】

"No, quicksand doesn't sting my butt. I feel like there is something under my feet."

After receiving the system prompt, Bi Fang did not rush to break free from the quicksand.

There is a wilderness all around, and except for the pyramid in the distance, there are no other ruins at all.

Combined with the abnormal touch under his feet, it was already obvious where the so-called ruins were.

This is normal. If the ruins were really on the surface, it would not be Bi Fang's turn to discover them.

Bi Fang stood up from the quicksand again, gradually sliding down, and the hard touch on the soles of his feet became more and more obvious.

Feel it carefully under your feet, like a huge stone, but it is not hard to say how hard it is. When Bifang puts the weight of his entire body on it, and deliberately shakes it to accelerate the sinking speed, the huge stone under his feet is

The block also sank together.

The curiosity of the audience was aroused and they asked what it was.

【What the hell】

[Isn’t it because I stepped on a treasure?]

[Alibaba’s Forty Thieves, right?]

"It should be a stone. It's smooth but not solid. Wait a minute. I'll come out first."

Bi Fang stopped moving. At this time, the quicksand had sunk to his chest, almost submerging his entire body.

Just as Bi Fang spread his hands flat and prepared to "swim" out slowly, the stones that had been cushioning his feet suddenly disappeared, and his feet were suddenly empty.

Immediately afterwards, the surrounding quicksand began to flow slowly from its original static state, and then became faster and faster, almost forming a vortex.

Bifang, who had just leaned out half of his body, was pulled by the strong suction of the vortex and could not escape at all. He sank deeper and deeper, and soon he was buried in the chest again, and it was even worse than before.

Seeing that the sand was about to bury Bifang's neck, the audience in the live broadcast room was completely worried.

[Hastily, the horse stumbles! 】

[What’s going on with Lao Fang? Why is the car overturned?]

[Why does the sand flow so fast?]

[Is this still quicksand? You don’t have the knowledge to bully me, right?]

Bi Fang's heart was pounding, and he felt the pressure around him getting bigger and bigger, making him unable to breathe at all. His hands were grabbing randomly, but there was nothing to grab except the sliding sand.
To be continued...
