Big Islander 2

Chapter 532 The Curse of the Pharaoh
Led and escorted by a team of soldiers, two real experts and two fake experts, Tang Jide and Xiao Xiami, were brought to the excavation site.Dozens of bulldozers and other machinery are roaring, moving truckloads of sand several miles away.

Looking from one side of the excavation, some huge sculptures can be vaguely seen, some of which have been damaged by machinery, missing arms and legs, and look a bit miserable.It seems that these buildings should be temples in front of the pyramids, because there are still some broken stone pillars on the sand.

"No, you can't do such damage. These are priceless treasures, the wealth left to us by our ancestors!" Harris was only given a certain mission by Tang Jide, but his own temperament has not changed.As a scholar, the scene in front of him was the most painful for him.

Tang Jide also looked up at the several-story-high statues. Even after thousands of years of vicissitudes, they are still lifelike. There is a proverb in Egypt: Humans are afraid of time, and time is afraid of pyramids.Today, Brother Big Head has a deeper understanding of this sentence.

But in the eyes of the soldiers, these tall sculptures are like the sand on the ground, worthless. The legendary treasures in the pyramids are their favorite.

Therefore, the officer just gave the professor a few perfunctory words, and then did what he should do.

"If you continue to use this barbaric method, then I refuse to cooperate!" Mr. Professor shouted hoarsely, so that Tang Jide was a little surprised: Can the persistent spirit resist control?

There are too many mysteries in the human body that cannot be solved. Perhaps, this concept has been deeply engraved in the soul of Professor Hawass, which is why this abnormal thing occurs.

Facing the professor's threat, the officer had to reconsider, and then ordered the vehicles to avoid these buildings as much as possible, and Professor Hawass's rapidly heaving chest gradually calmed down.

"Professor, it's up to you to find the entrance to the tomb. I hope you don't let us down and find the entrance in the shortest possible time. You are the most authoritative expert. Three days is enough time, right?" the officer said angrily. Hawass posted the first mission.Professional things need to be done by professionals. If laymen like them are asked to search, unless the pyramid is dismantled layer by layer.Even with the current mechanical level, it would take a long time to complete this task, and they didn't have the time.

"Three days, three months, it will be considered fast—" The veins on Mr. Professor's forehead are throbbing, and what he fears most is laymen leading experts.

Hearing the professor talking with the officer, a bunch of technical terms came out of his mouth, the officer was speechless and nodded repeatedly.But Big Brother couldn't afford to delay, he was just passing by here, so he wasted so much time with them.

So I put aside the crowd and acted alone with Xiao Xiami. The closer I got to those buildings, the more I could feel their magnificence, which made people involuntarily want to worship them. No wonder it was called a temple. Even he, who did not believe in ancient Egyptian gods People can feel a sacred breath rushing towards their faces.

"This is the wealth of all mankind." Xiao Xiami also praised it sincerely, which may be the reason why she proposed to come here. Since it is the wealth of the whole world, everyone has the obligation to protect it.

Unlike Mr. Professor's field investigation, Tang Jide and Xiao Xiami can expand their consciousness to complete the exploration work. The difference between them is simply incomparable.In the eyes of the professor, the extremely difficult task was completed within an hour. At a distance of nearly 100 meters, four vents were found, leading to the four sides of the pyramid.But now it has been blocked by yellow sand and completely submerged.

As for the entrance, it is located on the side that has been excavated. At a height of about ten meters, the surface is covered by huge stones, which look no different from the surrounding stones.Through the boulders on the surface, one can even feel the wide tomb passages inside, extending obliquely upward and downward.But further in, Brother Big Head's consciousness seemed to be blocked, unable to go deep.

The exploration work was easily done, and the professor over there was still discussing the plan with his disciples, and from time to time, he asked the officer a few times to ask for professional tools of one kind or another.

In front of outsiders, Tang Jide couldn't explain it clearly.When the officer stepped aside and arranged to purchase the equipment, Tang Jide pulled Harris aside and pointed out the entrance to him.Regarding Tang Jide's words, Harris certainly obeyed and only nodded.If he was in a normal state, he would definitely argue with reason and have a good fight with Tang Jide, and he must not ask laymen to point fingers.

After the officer deployed the purchase task and turned back, he found that the soldiers had already started assembling the tower crane, and one of his subordinates happily reported: "The professor has found the entrance!"

Awesome, after all, he is a professional - the officer couldn't help but praise, and admire Harris' professionalism.

With a clear goal, the next task is simple. All the engineering vehicles stopped, and several cranes set up the ladders, and built an operating platform in the air. That's right, the easiest way to deal with these large rocks weighing several tons is to explode them directly.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner. As for Tang Jide and the others, of course they are hiding in a tent in the distance to rest.In his sleep, Tang Datou was awakened by a loud bang, and looked out of the tent. It was almost dark, and there was a cloud of gunpowder smoke rising in the air.

"Inflate it with a blower first, and then go in tomorrow." Tang Jide discussed with the professor, and then went back to sleep.As for Mr. Professor, of course he fully practiced Tang Jide's guidance.

The common sense of exchanging air was instilled by Xiao Xiami in Uncle Datou before going to bed. The pyramid has been sealed for thousands of years, and the air inside cannot circulate. If there are no protective measures, something will happen.

If the two huge blowers whirred all night, the soldiers in charge of guarding would also be a little slack in the middle of the night, but they didn't notice that there were two small black figures sneaking in from the entrance under the cover of night. , disappeared in the dark tomb passage——

After sleeping until dawn, Tang Jide got up to urinate, looked up at the pyramid, and there was a dark hole in it, like a nice person, with a big gap in his mouth, it was really ugly.Brother Big Head couldn't help shaking his head: Humans are the most greedy animals.

Perhaps it was because victory was in sight, the breakfast was very sumptuous, in addition to bread, there was actually roasted whole lamb.Tang Jide muttered while eating the mutton: "Eat, eat more, who knows if you can come out after going in—"

The soldiers next to him all looked at him with strange eyes, somewhat tinged with fear.That's right, there are so many legends about the pyramids that it is difficult to tell the truth from the false. Just the curse of the Pharaoh can scare people out of their wits.

However, the arrival of two jeeps interrupted Tang Jide's chatter.I saw that the officer who had been dealing with them came over accompanied by several more senior officers, and then introduced them one by one. There was a faint murderous look.

It seems that they are here for inspection. After all, the excavation work has entered a critical stage.And look at their unabashed appearance, either they regard Tang Jide and the others as their own, or they are going to turn them into dead people afterwards, so they are confident.

"God bless, professor, we will have a wider space for cooperation in the future!" Major General Badr shook hands with Professor Hawass reservedly. It seems that their scheme is not small, and it is not just this underground pyramid.

Afterwards, Mr. Major General shook hands with Tang Jide again. Brother Datou was holding the mutton with his right hand, which was greasy, so he stretched out his left hand. As a result, Major General Bader immediately had a fierce look in his eyes. Looking at that posture, if it was not for the occasion of employing people, he probably Kill him directly.

In any case, he has lived with Sha Gu for several years. Of course, Tang Jide knows that the Arab people are most taboo to shake hands with the left hand. He mainly wants to test the attitude of the other party, and now he knows the answer.

After breakfast, the excavation work officially began. Of course, the major general will not go deep into the dangerous area, so the officer is the leader, leading more than 20 heavily armed soldiers, all wearing gas masks. It seems that their preparations are quite good. in place.

As for Tang Jide and the others, they went in with oxygen tanks on their backs, and also wore a special anti-biochemical suit, just like astronauts going to space.

Not at all—Tang Jide definitely said that they were a little too cautious. With his resistance, he would be fine even if he went in shirtless.But a century ago, many of those who excavated the pharaoh's tomb died inexplicably.According to the analysis of later scientists, the reason was that there were some strange bacteria in the tombs, and outsiders had no resistance to them, which was fatal.

Wearing this kind of clothes made me feel uncomfortable all over, so after taking two steps, Brother Big Tou immediately excused himself.The officer's persuasion for a while didn't work, and it wasn't easy to use force, so let him go. If you want to die, you can't blame others.In his opinion, it is enough to have one Professor Hawass, and others are all in coordination, it doesn't matter if you die or not.

Take the elevator and go straight up to the entrance of the cave, which has been simply reinforced. The soldiers were about to enter, but the officer asked Tang Jide and Xiao Xiami to open the way ahead. It seemed that they were really planning to treat them as ghosts.

Brother Big Tou didn't care, he happily jumped down a few wide steps and entered the tomb passage.The air here is fairly fresh, but it also has a somewhat strange smell, and in this narrow and long space, it still feels eerie.Unscrewing the searchlight on the head, shaking his head around, the inside of the tomb passage is actually very spacious, like a tunnel.

"No problem——" Waving his hands back, Tang Jide stepped forward, and the sound of his footsteps echoed dully in the tomb passage, like the sound of drums, beating on people's hearts, making people shudder.

The soldiers behind were about to catch up, when they suddenly heard a series of creepy voices from the depths of the tomb passage, as if they came from the Nine Serenity Hell, exuding an endless chill: "Whoever disturbs the peace of the Pharaoh, the God of Death with wings will be killed!" It's going to come down on him, quack quack, you're all going to die—"

The curse of the Pharaoh came true—all the soldiers turned pale with fright, and turned around and ran away regardless of any orders. in the sand.
