Stealing Game

Chapter 120 Between Life and Death
"This is my word..."

As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I was also stunned. Chang Xiao and Xia Shangzhou looked at me in surprise.The three looked at each other with different expressions.

"I never wrote this!" I broke down shaking the note.

"Are you sure you haven't written it?" Chang Xiao asked gloomily.

Xia Shangzhou looked both ways, hesitant to speak.

"I don't even know what this means, why did I write this?" I stared at my handwriting, exhausted physically and mentally.This Duatri is really hell, I have to wonder if my mind is abnormal.

Chang Xiao took out a pen and paper and asked me to write the contents of the note immediately.I wrote down as I said: "Only the gods live in the sun forever, Duat sees", and I also used a crappy way to describe "Sacrifice of Your Blood".

When I was writing, Chang Xiao and Xia Shangzhou helped to block the sight of others who were exploring. Although Yanuo didn’t know what we were doing, he held the cat in his arms and pointed at the changing murals to help disperse them. attention.

"No," Chang Xiao stared at my words for a while, then shook his head, "You asked the wrong question."

"What do you mean?" I thought he was going to say that I was pretending to be confused, but he believed what I said.

"You should ask, who can imitate your handwriting, and what is the purpose of that person to let the cat pass the note." Shredded, Xia Shangzhou and Xia Shangzhou packed up the scraps of paper separately.Nobody but us will know it's my word.

But I really can't figure out who can know my handwriting, and why they want to imitate me.Before I could sort out my thoughts, Yano couldn't hold back those people anymore.

"Why does it say 'See you Duat'?" Jason walked over like a cat, pointed to the note in my hand, and stared at me with those green eyes without blinking. "Didn't you say this is 'Duat'?"

I am shaken now too.Is this actually Duat, and is it possible that someone will join us here?So it was Li Yuan and the others who came to leave the note?But these are indeed my own words, and even the traces of scribbling at the end of the words "Duat see" are completely fake.

"Doctor Wang, what do you want to say?"

I heard the sound and looked.Another mercenary who was guarding the scientist took the note and looked down, and challenged me with a shiny head: "Why don't you explain to everyone what this means? Who wants to come to Duart to meet you?" ?”

Even if I didn’t know it was my handwriting, I was the only one who could write Chinese and ancient Egyptian at the same time.Now except for Yano, other foreigners stared at me scrutinizingly.

Is this the purpose of the person who wrote the note, to make us suspicious of each other?
"You don't have to ask her, but you can ask the cat." As soon as Chang joked, he was stared at by several shadowy eyes. He was unmoved and continued: "If you really want to send a message, people It is always more reliable than animals, but why did this cat come instead of someone?"

Under what circumstances can animals pass but humans cannot?In the understanding of the ancient Egyptians, cats can communicate the realm of the world and the dead.But it can't be that we are dead, right?

Hearing what Chang Xiao said, those people also felt that it was really strange, and couldn't help but look at Tempura.The fat cat was licking its own hairy ass nonchalantly.Of course, there is nothing to ask from it. The most urgent thing is to find Li Yuan and others, and find the "dead" Japanese to explain clearly.

"Look, the mural has changed again!"

We look for reputation.

New scenes appear in the murals.Overhead, the vulture goddess Isis spreads her wings, protecting us through life and death.Life and death, man and god.Coexist in this space where I don’t know if it’s Duat or not.

On the walls on both sides is a goddess nursing young children.Without looking closely, the sun disk above the head indicates that this depiction is the goddess Hathor, while the child represents the pharaoh.Such murals are intended to interpret the legitimacy of the pharaoh's rights, because the pharaoh is a god on earth, and he wants to show the connection between himself and the gods, that is, he was born and fed by the gods.

If only that's the case.What is surprising is that the lines carved deep on the stone wall directly depict the breasts of the goddess Hathor.In the artistic expression of ancient Egypt, the part about nurturing is generally replaced by the animal image of the goddess, that is, a cow, and she is not allowed to bear it in a human form.No wonder the goddess of the sky and life keeps her eyes shut.

I look away.

Arno, holding the cat in his arms, approached the wall very carefully, and beckoned me to take a look.I ignored it, but was pulled back by him.I turned my head impatiently, and saw Yanuo's face full of surprise: "Yu, did I read it wrong? Is that blood?"

I took a deep breath and leaned over to look, blinking hard in disbelief.The breasts of the goddess Hathor were bleeding, and the blood of the gods was swallowed by the pharaoh.

This is not a god-given monarchy, but rather a life-for-life exchange.No wonder Goddess Hathor suffers so much.Looking at the pharaoh who looked like a child, there really was a weird smile on his face that didn't belong to a child.

I couldn't help but take a step back.

"What's the matter?" Chang Xiao and others surrounded him after seeing this, and were too shocked by this paradoxical scene to speak.No one knows exactly what happened, but it sure wasn't a good thing.Now no one dared to act rashly, for fear of being bitten off a piece of meat.

Jason has the courage and courage of a young man, so he is about to walk forward along the corridor.

"Wait first, don't move anyone." Chang Xiao called him to stop, and turned on the bright flashlight.

In the dead silence, only the gods deeply engraved on the wall can be illuminated.While everyone held their breath, something suddenly came out of the mural and fell lightly into the darkness on the ground.

I took a step back towards Yano, who held the tempura, freed his hand and dragged me to hide behind the British bald head.Another person responsible for protecting the scientists is Joshua, but he is still addicted to alcohol.

Xia Shangzhou kept Chang Xiao behind him.

After waiting for a while and seeing no further movement from the thing on the mural, Jason walked over, and then handed a piece of paper to me.

I took it, and it was a papyrus with scriptures on it.Duatli has no wind, nothing natural, so what makes this blown off?

"Can you understand what is written here?"

While the inscription on the papyrus cannot be translated verbatim, combined with the images it appears to be a trial.

A jackal-headed god held the judgment record and looked back at the throne behind him.It's just that there is no one on the throne.

"Is this Anubis?" Jason asked.

I took a closer look and frowned.

"This appears to be Upuot, also known as the Pathfinder."

"The one who opened the way?" Chang Xiao took the papyrus and asked me about the records of Upaot.

In fact, my understanding of this trailblazer is also very limited. He only existed in very early legends, and it was purely accidental that I could recognize it.The strange thing is, why did the old god, who had been replaced long ago, appear in the murals of the new dynasty?
"What did you think of?" I asked Chang Xiao.

He ignored me and just walked over to Joshua.I don't know what Chang Xiao said to Joshua, but there was a click, and the wine bottle of the man whose faith was crumbling but still trying to maintain his piety fell to the ground.

The sound of the wine bottle rolling down was especially harsh in Duatli, and everyone looked back.

"I was only sent to be a bodyguard, and I never saw those people again. I thought I would never have to touch those things again."

Joshua, who had never moved from his nest, stared at the empty flagon spinning on the ground:
"Until this time I met the Japanese scientist Shinichi Kawai who should have died."

　Happy Children's Day to all

　　- There is only one name for a cat as an animal in Egyptian, [mjw], pronounced miu, which literally means "it that meows".The Egyptians' respect for the "wildness" of cats is projected in mythology, that is, cats are continuously portrayed as protective images that can drive away evil spirits and fight demons.
