Chapter 104 Conversations under the night, the legend of the tomb-keepers The Nile River Basin, which gave birth to the Pharaoh dynasty, is the cradle of Egyptian civilization and a mysterious place where countless classic historical and literary works have been is a country with a vast history and splendid culture. Ancient Egypt is famous for its mysterious and mysterious religion, art, architecture and other cultures.
The desert of Egypt is a mysterious world covered with fine sand. The golden desert always reminds people of pyramids, sarcophagi, and tombs of pharaohs. Young travelers often cross it in order to follow the footsteps of ancient Egyptian civilization.
When it gets completely dark, you will see colorful night markets in the streets and alleys of Egypt. At night, rich men in the old streets and ancient cities will also put on gorgeous robes, come with musical instruments, and have a carnival.
The lights of thousands of houses in the distance are a symbol of Egypt's prosperity, but everything outside the Egyptian city has nothing to do with the hustle and bustle in the distance. Everything is as quiet as the whole world has fallen into a deep sleep.
Under the shroud of darkness, apart from the orange lights in the city in the distance, the face of Egypt becomes more mysterious and calm, as if the heat during the day is an illusion, and the low temperature felt in the wind makes people feel... A feeling of falling into another world.
After Muto Shuangroku and Professor Elson Bute finished their visit to the Temple of the Sun, the two of them immediately began their own adventure, heading towards the Valley of the Kings outside Cairo.
Now under the cover of night, Muto Shuangroku and Professor Elson Bute braved the huge temperature difference between day and night, braved huge dangers, rode on their horses, and headed towards their destination in the dark.
Riding on a horse and looking far away from the direction of the desert, although the scenery is still the same, the houses are still the same, and the solid city walls that represent the cultural heritage of ancient Egypt are still the same, but now the two of them have a different feeling than when they first arrived.
Professor Elson Bute was filled with emotion and obsession with ancient Egyptian culture, while Muto Sugoroku had more of a mystery in his heart, as well as an inexplicable feeling of nostalgia.
Obviously this is not my hometown, why do I feel like a wanderer returning home? Muto Shuangroku was very confused, he was puzzled, he was confused, he had no choice but to let this feeling rage on, but his confusion was soon interrupted by Professor Elson Bute's question .
"Shuangliu, have you heard of the legend about the tomb-keepers in ancient Egypt?"
"Professor Butt, the tomb-guards you just mentioned should be the tomb-keepers who specially guarded the tombs of the Pharaohs during the Pharaoh dynasty of ancient Egypt."
"However, there should be no tomb-guarding clan now. 3000 years have passed, and everything has changed. Things and people have changed."
Muto Shuangroku is currently riding on a horse with a cigarette in his mouth and a hat while riding against the wind and sand, but this does not prevent him from smoking and talking at the same time.
However, in modern times, most people think that the tomb-guarding clan is just a legend, and few people believe that the tomb-guarding clan really exists.
Also in line with most people's views, Muto Sugoroku learned about some Egyptian culture and the legend about the tomb-keepers in ancient Egypt.
Regarding this legend from the tomb-guarding clan, will there be a tomb-guarding clan in Egypt now?Muto Sugoroku naturally didn't believe the statement about the existence of the tomb-guarding clan at all, and it would have been good if he didn't sneer at it.
As a wandering adventurer, Muto Shuangroku was the God of Gamblers who once swept all the casinos in London, England, and was an extreme challenger who was constantly on the edge of life and death.
The weaknesses of human nature, the ugliness and filthiness of the human heart, have long been understood clearly by Muto Sugoroku, so he, who has independent judgment, cannot be a simple person, and he will believe what others say.
Rather than asking Muto Shuangroku to believe that the Tomb Keepers really exist, it is better to ask him to believe that aliens really exist, have visited the earth, and have settled on the earth.
Even something as whimsical as aliens visiting the earth is more reliable than believing that there is a family of tomb-keepers in the world.
After all, it has been many years since the pharaoh dynasty of ancient Egypt perished, and even the people who guard the tomb have been brainwashed.
Even if hundreds of years have passed, everything has already gone through vicissitudes of life, let alone 3000 years now. More than 3000 years have flowed away like sand in an hourglass, and no matter how loyal a servant is, he will change his must know how fickle animals humans are. Human nature is inherently malicious. Humans are just beasts that have undergone education and rules. People who cannot be restrained are worse than beasts.
After all, there must be more than one tombkeeper in the tombkeeper clan. There are so many people in a family tribe, guarding a broken tomb all their lives.
No matter how much you try to convince yourself and think about the good things, this is simply unrealistic. There is even a terrifying possibility that the tomb-guarding clan is the first to take advantage of the Pharaoh's treasure.
Even some countries peeked into the Pharaoh's treasures and even sent troops to dig out only the British are digging, but the local Egyptians are also digging. They are also developing various tourist attractions and even exhibiting mummies around the world. There are many pharaoh mummies that have been excavated.
There are many people who cannot survive and are about to die of poverty. They will take desperate risks and want to offend the Pharaohs and seize the Pharaohs' treasures. Even though there are legends about the Pharaohs' curses throughout the ages, they cannot stop these tomb robbers.
In fact, among various Egyptian folklore, the legend about the tomb-keepers is as famous as the Egyptian pyramids, the Sphinx, and the Pharaoh's curse.
The so-called tomb guard clan, as the name suggests, is a family tribe that guards tombs, but they are not guarding ordinary tombs, but the Pharaoh's mausoleum, to prevent daring thieves from disturbing the Pharaoh's sleep and stealing the Pharaoh's treasures.
The pharaohs of ancient Egypt can be said to enjoy the most of all rulers in the world. Even Qin Shihuang, the only emperor throughout the ages, only built mausoleums and cities underground.
The Pharaoh built pyramids on the ground, and there were countless burial objects.
How could such a huge sum of money not be attractive? Sake makes people's faces red, and money and silk touch people's hearts.
Modern Egyptians actually no longer care about the authority of the ancient Egyptian Pharaohs.
After all, the ancient Egyptian dynasty has long since perished, and even the pyramids and the Sphinx have been developed into tourist attractions.
It is no secret that the so-called Valley of the Rest of the Royal Family is the pyramid of the pharaohs of the past dynasties.
The tomb-keepers are isolated from the rest of the world. They have their own valley and are semi-isolated from the outside world.
Living in the "Valley of the Royal Family's Rest" all year round, they will punish or kill tomb thieves who attempt to invade the tomb.
The tomb-keeper clan guards the "sacrifice hall of the Valley where the royal family rests", which contains the remains of the royal family of all generations, so the tribe also calls it "the royal tomb in the valley where the royal family rests".
The mission of the tomb guards is to protect the pharaoh's tomb and kill all the daring ones.
However, in general, under the ordinary world view, the existence of the tomb-guarding clan is definitely unreasonable.
However, if we have a world view of supernatural power such as the thousand-year-old artifact and the divine card with divine power, it is really possible for the tomb-guarding clan to continue to pass it on.
