Chapter 120: There Are Corpse Weeds Inside the Pyramid
The seventh level of the pyramid.
The space on this floor is not very large, only about 700 square meters.
There are not many coffins here, only twenty or thirty standing upright, but there are two larger ones in the sky.
One of the sarcophagi is engraved with the king's crown, and the other is engraved with a scepter.
"King of ancient Egypt, powerful vizier." Hu Bayi identified the identities of the two coffins in the sky.
"In ancient Egypt, the king was a symbol of status, and the vizier was power."
"The Vizier can also be understood as the chief minister of ancient China. He has all the power to manage and supervise the country. He only listens to the Pharaoh. He is a close minister around the Pharaoh and is equal to the king."
Hu Bayi explained in more detail that in ancient Egypt, the vizier almost always had the final say.
Because the Pharaoh is the son of God, it is impossible for him to personally witness everything. The vizier can handle the country's justice, sacrifices, agriculture, resource distribution and other matters by himself.
"Isn't the Pharaoh afraid that the vizier will alienate him?" Fatty Wang couldn't help but ask.
"Don't be afraid, because no matter how much power the vizier holds, as long as the Pharaoh says a word, the vizier can be thrown into death row in minutes." Hu Bayi explained.
In ancient Egypt, as long as people still believed in Hades, the Pharaoh was a being who was above everything else.
"It's so comfortable to be a pharaoh." Fatty Wang was a little envious.
Being a pharaoh is more comfortable than being an emperor.
When you are an emperor, you have to deal with the big and small affairs of the country. Basically, you work from five to nine, and most emperors don't live long.
As a pharaoh, you don't have to worry about anything, you don't have to worry about being ignored or overthrown, you can do whatever you want, and you can even decide the direction of the country's development with just one sentence.
This shows how high the power is.
"Then who are these people below?" Yang Xueli pointed to the sarcophagus set up on the ground. To be buried with King Vizier, his status should be high.
"Generals, Pharaoh's concubines and relatives, etc." Hu Bayi explained.
The pharaoh's concubines were all of higher status than the princes and nobles.
There are more treasures on this floor, all of which are gold and silver.
Fatty Wang looked at the gold-plated silverware and copperware in his backpack, and suddenly felt disgusted.
He emptied his backpack and prepared to get it again.
Saint Zhou lit the surrounding candlesticks one by one, briefly illuminating this floor.
The identity at this level is higher, and the risk factor will be greater.
When the candle was lit, many statues of Hades appeared on the mural.
The image of Anubis, the god of the underworld, is a dog-headed monster holding a long axe.
In the mural, Anubis stands at the tip of the pyramid, wearing a gold and white pharaoh's crown, holding his ax high and blessing the pharaoh.
The Pharaoh stood on the first floor of the pyramid, accepted the divine gift from Anubis, and took charge of the world in place of Anubis.
The high priest is responsible for offering sacrifices to Hades and stands one level lower than the pharaoh.
The high priest is equivalent to the servant of Hades, except that Hades does not exist.
Next are the kings and viziers, who are bathed in the radiance of Hades and Pharaoh, shining brightly.
Then came the others, who could only bask in the sunshine.
And the slaves at the lowest level don't even have sunlight.
"This mural gives quite a lot of information." Hu Bayi looked at the mural.
After Zhou Sheng took a look to understand the information, he looked at the next mural.
The next mural depicts the vizier and the king handling national affairs together, but the king is just a symbol, and it is the vizier who is doing the work.
Everyone was studying the mural room, and the two sarcophagi above were slowly opened.
"Meow!"
…
civilian level.
Two of Wang Xuanzong's men were bitten by corpse crickets. The wounds quickly turned black and spread at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Seeing this, Wang Xuanzong directly pulled out a cleaver from his waist and cut off the legs of the two men.
"ah!!"
The screams became more intense.
Medical staff holding white boxes opened the boxes, bandaged their wounds to stop the bleeding, and covered their mouths to prevent them from screaming.
When their legs were cut off, corpse crickets emerged from their legs and quickly burrowed into the soil.
These corpse crickets are drab in color, can hide in the soil, and are not afraid of drought.
This is a corpse cricket that is stronger than the water turtle. It can burrow into the soil to hide itself. It has a strong bite ability and can bite you even if you are wearing iron.
"How come there are corpses in the pyramid?" Hoodmanda was stunned.
Corpse crickets are very common in ancient Chinese tombs, but this is a pyramid!
None of the books in his family contain any description of the pyramid of corpse crickets.
"The tomb-keepers brought them." Wang Xuanzong could tell that all these corpses were brought by the tomb-keepers.
"I was careless. I didn't expect the tombkeeper to bring corpse crickets from the ancient Chinese tomb." Wang Xuanzong took a deep breath.
This was something he never expected.
The guardian of the tomb came to get the dragon veins and brought the corpse.
"Lekyato!" Wang Xuanzong shouted.
A big man behind him opened the black box on his back, took out a long pipe and held it in his hand, then lit it on fire, and a burst of fire instantly spurted out of the pipe.
"Go and clean up all the corpses."
Lekyato nodded and took the flamethrower to burn corpses everywhere.
Most of the corpse crickets were hiding in the rocks, but Lykiato was also very patient and burned the rocks to force them out.
Tu Zhigui had one point per point, and Zhou Sheng only exchanged ten of them.
"Hude." Wang Xuanzong continued to shout.
Hood pointed to the rope ladder on the wall and said: "It is recorded in the book that if you want to go up, you can only insert the bones into the cracks in the wall and climb up step by step."
With that said, Hoodmanda searched around and found a wall with a gap.
But the bones were all destroyed by Zhou Sheng.
"John." Wang Xuanzong shouted.
John, wearing special gloves, took out a centipede ladder from his backpack. He disassembled the centipede ladder and inserted the metal rod into the gap in the wall. The effect was similar to inserting a bone, but this metal rod was stronger than bone.
Harder.
Wang Xuanzong stood there, he didn't need to do anything, he only needed to shout twice.
As for the corpse crickets, many were burned to death by Lekeyato. Some wanted to crawl out and bite people, but the corpse crickets that crawled out were directly nailed to the ground by the people behind Xuanzong.
"Guardian of the mausoleum, no matter how many arrangements you make, how prepared are you compared to me?" Wang Xuanzong sneered.
He brought more than twenty members from his headquarters, all of whom were holding a black box. Most of the black boxes contained tomb robbing tools and weapons to deal with the tomb guards.
Of course, there is also a white medical kit.
The Tianzun Society has almost thoroughly studied the tomb-keepers, and everything is specially designed to deal with the tomb-keepers.
After all the corpse crickets were cleaned up, the metal rods were inserted into the wall.
"Let's go." Wang Xuanzong shouted and led people up to the fourth floor.
Corpse crickets are just a child's play in his eyes, and he has a hundred ways to deal with them.
