Chapter 259 "The Pharaoh's Curse"
"Introduction? Okay." Li Chongshan thought that Yan Luge disliked the family tour guide's explanation like reciting lines, and pointed to the display cabinet beside him, showing a slightly proud look, "This red copper mask is the pioneering era of the Guti Kingdom. He was left by one of the famous generals. He fought in all directions in his life and was never defeated. He was called the 'Devil General'. He has been staying on the battlefield with a hideous red copper mask. It was once thought to intimidate the enemy, but It wasn't until after his death that the secret was revealed——
"'Devil General' is actually not one person, but five people. The first generation of Devil General died in battle at the age of 36, so his eldest son took over the mask and became the second generation of 'Devil General'. His eldest son He died in battle a few years later, but his second daughter took over his mask, and then his nephew, his eldest grandson..."
Yan Lige yawned: "I'm not interested, next."
"..." Li Chongshan paused, doing good deeds, and pointed to a bronze mirror not far away, "The 'wheel mirror' held by the seven Peacock Kings of the Peacock Dynasty. The wheel mirror directly listened to the teachings of the peacock bird. Therefore, after his death, the Temple of the Holy King regarded the wheel mirror as one of the three holy objects. 700 years ago, the wheel mirror was lost in the defense of Midu, and my ancestors Then I bought it from a Tianzhou merchant."
"Not interested either, next one."
"This Humu Guqin was given to the envoy of the Ancient Fan Kingdom and the poet Yi Li by the Emperor Tianzhou..."
"next."
"This brooch given to No.14 lovers by the most affectionate Princess Caesar in the world..."
"next."
"..."
It is true that Yanlvge is interested in antique cultural relics, but he is only interested in those antiques with a long history-there may be magic tools made by ancient practitioners among those things, even if they have been passed down to modern times, they have already become irreparable The wreckage, but the incomplete runes and circles on it can still bring a lot of inspiration to the extraordinary research of the second part.
Although these antiques introduced by Li Chongshan are relatively well preserved, their history is no more than 3000 years old, and they are of no value to Yanlvge.
After thinking for a while, Yan Lvge directly stated his needs: "I'm only interested in things from 4000 years ago."
Li Chongshan was stunned for a moment—he was not the eldest daughter of Emperor Caesar, and he didn't know that the time node of "4000 years" meant the dividing line between the "age of cultivation" and the "age of faith".
But Li Chongshan is determined to be the loyal little follower of the big boss, so he pointed at him without asking the reason at all: "Over there! In front! Turn this corner, and we brought it out from the tomb of Pharaoh Suer VII." All the things!"
Yan Lvge followed a large group of tourists, turned a corner, and raised his eyes.
The system prompts: "The third stage task has been completed."
Words and songs:? ? ?
What……
What did he hear?
The system reminded him that the third phase of the task was completed—that is, he found the user of the spiritual potion numbered X25662RU9.
But Yan Luge was a little confused... This was the kind of confusion that made him the top three in his life.
The system thinks that he has seen the target person he is looking for, so it is considered that the task is completed.
But what did he see? ? ?
tourists?No, he has seen every visitor outside the exhibition hall, and he has also written down their appearance characteristics.If the user of the spiritual potion he was looking for was among the tourists, the system would not prompt until now.
Tourist guide?No, the reason is the same as above, he memorized the tour guide's face as soon as he entered the exhibition hall.
other people?No, Yanluge scanned the exhibition hall when the system prompt sounded. He was sure, sure, and guaranteed that the people in the exhibition hall were still the tourists and tour guides he had seen before, and there were no sudden disappearances or strangers.
So, where is the spiritual potion user he "saw"? !
——Either it is the effect of a supernatural ability similar to "disappearing the sense of existence".
——Either the mental retardation system tricked him.
A warning sign rose in Yan Luge's heart, and he thought of two possibilities for a moment.
Li Chongshan's voice was still chattering in his ears, and he didn't notice anything strange at all: "...including the coffin, mummy, and funeral objects of Pharaoh Suer VII, all of them are here..."
Yan Luge's uneasiness and vigilance caused by things beyond his control eased. He listened to Li Chongshan's words and suddenly thought of the third possibility.
In order to verify his conjecture, Yan Luge turned his head and asked Li Chongshan: "Has your family ever robbed Pharaoh's tomb?"
"Hush—that's a protective excavation! How can a protective excavation be called tomb robbery?!" Li Chongshan subconsciously defended himself. Looking around, he found that most of the tourists were wearing earphones and focused on explaining. After noticing himself at the end of the line, he lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "Boss, have you ever heard a rumor—the 'Pharaoh's Curse'?"
"More than 100 years ago, a group of explorers entered the tomb of an ancient Nero pharaoh, and saw the curse inscription in the tomb, 'Whoever disturbs the pharaoh's sleep, the god of death will spread his wings and fall on his head.', and the group of explorers After the family left the ancient tomb, they died one after another in a short period of time, as if the curse had been fulfilled." Yan Luge knew these mysterious rumors very well, "The Blackstone Research Institute investigated this rumor a long time ago, but In the end it was decided that it was just a sensationalist rumor."
"It was just a rumor." Li Chongshan nodded vigorously, and asked deliberately, "Do you know who organized that expedition?"
Yan Luge shook his head: "I don't know. I didn't read the original report carefully."
Hearing this, Li Chongshan suddenly showed a mysterious smile, and pointed to his nose in front of Yan Lvge.
Yan Luge reacted: "What did your family do?"
"Yes." Li Chongshan looked proud, "My great-great-grandfather was the organizer, leader and sponsor of that expedition.
"The ancient tomb that my grandpa Zeng Zeng led a team to enter was the tomb of Pharaoh Sur VII.
"They unearthed countless treasures in the tomb, but after leaving the tomb, his teammates went crazy one after another within a week, chanting the name of Pharaoh and died. This incident was publicized by the media at the time as 'Pharaoh 'The Curse' has attracted a lot of attention.
"But my great-great-grandfather was a firm materialist, he didn't believe in this evil.
"He rushed into the ancient tomb again, and not only took away a batch of funerary objects, but also dragged out the coffin of Pharaoh Suer VII, and threw it in the basement of his house, sleeping with it every day—by the way, this The coffin is now placed in the exhibition hall.
"However, seven days after he slept with his coffin in his arms, my great-great-great-grandpa suddenly went mad and died.
"At this time, my great-great-great-grandfather's son who was visiting Tianzhou, also my great-great-great-grandfather, came back.
"Like my great-great-great-grandfather, my great-great-great-great-great-grandfather was also a firm atheist, and he was equally stubborn, upright, and paranoid, and never looked back until he hit the wall.
"He rejected the family's suggestion to burn the pharaoh's coffin and destroy all the funerary objects, and he insisted on dissecting his father's body, and finally found that his father died of a severe brain infection-the source of the infection was a kind brought out from the ancient tomb. The unknown bacteria will cause many mold-like spots to grow on the cerebral cortex of the infected person, and eventually go crazy and die.
"At the suggestion of my grandmother Zeng Zeng, our family used alcohol distilled from high-purity spirits to completely disinfect the coffins and funerary objects in the basement, and then the couple also went into the basement to sleep for seven days.
"Seven days later, the couple walked out of the basement alive and healthy to the ages of 87 and 90, and no one in the entire Golden Castle died because of it.
"—Hey, don't tell me, even I slept on the crystal coffin when I was a child, although my dad beat me after I finished sleeping.
"'The Curse of the Pharaoh' is an outdated rumor, and I don't know why it can be spread until now. However, its existence has indeed attracted many tourists to the Golden Castle..."
Half of the content in these chapters is true, and the other half is made up by me.
For example, the existence of the Golden Castle, the origin of "Pharaoh's Curse", and some noble gossip are true.
The three-dimensional prototype of the Golden Castle is Highclere Castle in England—yes, it is the filming location of "Downton Abbey".
The ancestor of the owner of the castle is the protagonist of "Curse of the Pharaoh". He died in the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun, causing more than 20 people in the team to die one after another.If you go to play, you can enjoy the strange experience of visiting the mummy in the basement in the middle of the night, and listen to the legendary stories of the descendants of the survivors telling you No. 1 ancestors.
It is a small tourist attraction, and it is open from time to time. If you want to go, you can go to their official website to make an appointment.
——After explaining the source of the material, I will start to make up next.
