17 The iron box of mysterious spells dropped to a depth of twelve meters, and a shocking picture slowly appeared on the monitor. What was carved on the four stone walls were not just khaki hieroglyphics and ancient Egyptian murals - above the murals, with exaggerated
Line after line of red spells were written in crazy calligraphy.
Those handwritings can only be understood as "spells" because not a single word can be successfully recognized. The characters look like hundreds of red ribbons fluttering out of thin air, unrestrained and enthusiastic, full of the power to confuse people. I read it first
The row of characters we arrived was nearly half a meter high, straight up and down, like a huge Arabic numeral "1", but the head and tail parts of the characters were connected to two winding wavy lines, making it impossible to tell.
its meaning.
"Wow, a curse! It's the curse of the Pharaoh..."
The soldiers gathered around and whispered, like a swarm of hungry silkworms chewing mulberry leaves.
Yelan's expression changed, and he pushed the lever on the remote control to speed up the descent of the iron box. There were spells everywhere, and a large part of the characters were extremely long, almost circling the entire ancient well.
The bright red color is brighter and brighter than blood, making people's eyes feel painfully stinging.
Later, the images on the four monitors were all filled with red characters, which was extremely strange.
I stood up and moved my limbs slightly, because the red color gave people a shocking force, which almost made me suffocate. After drinking the coffee in the cup on my back, I walked over to Yelan, not without regrets.
He whispered: "It's a pity. It would be great if there was another camera under the iron box, so that you can look directly to the bottom of the well..."
Yelan replied coldly: "It's useless. In this pitch-black environment, even with a top-notch infrared camera system, the visibility does not exceed ten meters."
All his thoughts were focused on the remote control. After barely answering me for a few words, he shut his mouth tightly.
No soldier dared to approach the mouth of the well, as if the Egyptian king's guardian beast would jump out of the well at any time and devour anyone.
I smelled a strange smell, as if something was burnt, and there was a faint burnt smell.
"What does it smell like?" I turned to ask Tina. Of course, in addition to the burnt smell, what I smelled in my nose was also mixed with the faint aroma of "Thousand Flowers Bird" left by Tengjia. That kind of complex aroma was too complex.
It is so outstanding that if you only smell it once, you will remember it for the rest of your life. Perhaps this was the original intention of the master who developed it?
Tie Na sniffed hard in surprise and shook her head in confusion: "No? Is it the smell left behind by the welding gun after working?"
All the soldiers and workers stopped what they were doing, holding their breath and peering at the picture on the monitor from a distance.
The people in the tomb had almost forgotten the passage of time. Looking at their watches, the hour hand was already pointing to seven o'clock in the evening.
When I looked at my watch, I noticed that my pulse suddenly jumped violently, the frequency increased by twice as much, and my temples on both sides were also tingling faintly.
"Tie Na, help me -" I shouted, took a big step to the side, sat back on the chair, and at the same time clenched my fists and pressed hard on my temples. This was not a disease, but some strange
It was a sign before something was going to happen, and even I didn’t understand what kind of force was causing me so much trouble.
Tie Na jumped over and looked at my face in surprise: "Feng, your face looks so ugly, what's wrong?"
It was like there were two high-speed rotating drills working hard in my temples, drilling deep into my head. I felt that my eyes had begun to bulge outward due to the severe headache. In this terrible state, my face looked so pale How can it look good?
"Tranquilizer, sedative... I want a sedative..." Before my mind completely collapsed, I turned my head to look at Gu Ye with great effort. He had drugs in his hand, and I really needed the rescue of drugs at this moment...
"Come on... come on... I'm waiting for you... waiting for you... help me... help me..."
A mysterious and obscure voice rang in my ears, as if it was very close. I shook my head quickly and looked at the place where the voice came from. The violent movement caused my cervical spine to be violently twisted, and I made a terrifying " There was a "click" sound.
The sound came from the mouth of the well. I heard it right. It came from the mouth of the well or from below. Moreover, this was the call I heard when I first arrived at the camp.
According to my judgment, the person making the sound is about forty years old, male, and has standard American English pronunciation.
"Hehe, hehe...hehe..." I let out a horrifying laugh. Who could believe that at the bottom of the pyramid hundreds of meters below the ground, a forty-year-old American man would make a terrifying call to me? Absolutely. Doubtless, Tie Na couldn't hear this voice, but she did something more meaningful - Tie Na grabbed my right hand in a whoosh, and she didn't know when there was more in her other hand. A red syringe with a sharp needle shining with dazzling white light. The one centimeter thick needle tube was filled with at least four centimeters of blood-red liquid. Under the extreme excitement, my arms were completely numb and I could not make any sound. Have the strength to resist her.
"Calm down, you will feel better after injecting this tube of heteroglobulin..." Her injection movements were calm and skillful, she accurately inserted into the vein of my forearm, and then slowly pushed the liquid into my blood vessel.
An extremely cool feeling extended from my forearm to my brain. I lay on the table panting like a pocket that had been emptied. I was sure that this was not a globulin at all, but a powerful inhibitory substance that was very similar in nature to drugs. agent.
The walkie-talkie kept whistling "chi la chi la". My hands and feet were so weak that I didn't care to communicate with Su Lun.
"Mr. Feng, are you feeling better?" Tina's concern will only make me feel even more ashamed. So far, what I have done in the Egyptian desert will only bring shame to my elder brother Yang Tian's title of "King of Tomb Robbers". Not only did he not achieve anything shocking, but he always needed help from others.
"I'm fine...Thank you..." After my pulse returned to normal, the stinging pain in my temples disappeared without a trace. I stood up with difficulty holding on to the table, walked to the entrance of the cave, and looked down in vain. At present, The iron box descends to a depth of thirty meters. Viewed with the naked eye, the dazzling white light emitted by the four lamps can be clearly seen. Other than that, there is endless darkness and a scalp-tightening silence.
What is the end of the well?
Mercury? Mercury? Sea eyes? Or thousands of feet of gold and silver jewelry? I shook my head and smiled bitterly, wiping off the cold sweat on my forehead and neck, and sat down by the well. I hoped that the call would ring again, okay? It allowed me to clearly find where the sound came from, but when I was ready, the sound stopped.
What was waiting was Su Lun’s voice, and the message she conveyed to me really shocked me: “Brother Feng, just now... Elder Sahan and Youlian arrived near the Tucrakhan Pyramid just now. Five minutes ago, they boarded the tower at the same time.
Yeah, even now I can still see the two of them sitting and standing through my telescope, as if they were holding some kind of ceremony..."
Su Lun's voice was so loud that even Tiena heard it clearly and couldn't help but look up.
There are only countless wall carvings above the head. No matter how powerful the clairvoyance power is, it is impossible to see the existence of Elder Sahan and Youlian from a distance of several hundred meters.
"What now?" I asked in a low voice.
"They are still there, right above your head. However, this time Youlian is not holding the black pottery bowl in his hand, and their faces are facing north, in the direction of Khufu's Pyramid."
I'm not sure whether that calling sound is related to Elder Sahan. If only I can hear it, it means that the person who made the sound (or maybe not a person, but some mysterious unknown force) wants to fight alone.
I contact you.
So far, I have no mummy friends, so it's unlikely I'll meet anyone familiar in an Egyptian tomb.
Su Lun muttered to himself in confusion on the intercom: "What on earth are they going to do? There are so many mysteries, none of which can be solved. They are so tangled that they give me a headache...Brother Feng, this is really not possible."
, let’s withdraw from this operation together..."
When a girl is extremely worried, she will always shed tears to release her stress. I could hear the cry in Su Lun's voice.
"Su Lun, don't be too nervous. If you have any questions, you can talk to Mr. Scalpel. I believe he will help you-"
Su Lun stopped me from continuing with a long sigh.
When the iron box dropped to 70 meters, Yelan pressed the "stop" button.
The screen on the monitor has not changed much. It is still a red spell that coils vertically and horizontally. No one can decipher it, like a book from heaven.
"Mr. Feng, the lighting I sent into the cave last time stayed at this depth. Should we continue searching downwards?" His attitude was somewhat hesitant.
Looking down the well, the light is far away and dim, as if a diver is observing a huge luminous pearl through the endless water. If you look at it for a few seconds, you will feel dizzy.
"Of course, continue! If we can't find out what's under the mine, we will never withdraw our troops!" Tina answered on my behalf, waving her hand and giving the order with an arrogant attitude.
The burnt smell in the air came and went. I looked around several times but couldn't find the source of the smell.
When Song Jiu conveyed Tang Xin's advice, he once said "Don't use open flames." Now, except for the invisible electric sparks emitted when the electrical switch is pressed, there are no open flames that may appear in the tomb. So what is the burning smell...
Yelan expressionlessly pressed the remote control, and the steel wire cable on the hanger continued to rotate, and the iron box continued to descend. The depth gradually exceeded one hundred meters, one hundred twenty meters, one hundred fifty meters... everyone's
My heart seemed to be hung up by a cable noose, as if the danger was getting closer and closer as the cable twisted. Unfortunately, no one present could understand these spells, including Gu Ye, who looked uneasy.
If Elder Sahan didn't behave so mysteriously, we could have invited him down to decipher these red characters. But now, with his several abnormal performances, people really should be wary of him instead of trusting him calmly.
When the depth reached 180 meters, Yelan's shoulders trembled and he shouted in a hoarse voice: "It's the end! It seems like it's the end!"
The cable that had just been pulled straight has become loose, which means that the iron box below has been supported by the ground.
I, Yelan, and Tina almost jumped in front of the monitor. The four pictures reflected the red spells on the four walls, but at the bottom of the picture, a piece of white and delicate ground was revealed, like some kind of texture.
Hard jade. The jade is clean, with neither wall carvings nor talismans.
Yelan bit his lip, his Adam's apple bouncing up and down, and kept swallowing dryly.
The video that the camera conveyed to us after it reached the bottom of the well was completely beyond everyone's expectations, because what we have seen so far is that it is just a slender square hole two meters square and one hundred and eighty meters deep. There is nothing at the bottom of the hole.
The solid jade ground. All our previous guesses and fears were swept away, melting away quickly like the first snow under the bright sun.
"It's just a hole -" Tina let out a long sigh. She was already satisfied with the harvest of these eight huge gold bricks.
"Move the hanger and stick it to one side of the square shaft." Yelan returned to his true nature as an engineer and gave orders to the workers in an orderly manner.
