Chapter 648

Even though we don't want to believe it, some diseases just suddenly fall out of the sky and begin to recur in some way in the world.

Now, there is a new disease in the world, called AIDS. There is no doubt that we will face a cruel war, many people will die, and we are at a loss to do anything about it. I just hope that humans can find a cure, and it doesn't take long.

Dr. Martin Fred, Khartoum, Sudan, 1982

The scorching sun, basking on the African continent, makes the Sahara desert like a melting pot, which is one of the most unsuitable places on earth for living things.

But even the worst soil can give birth to life. There are countless creatures and human beings in this big desert.

"Look at this pottery. We are going to be rich this time..."

"Do you think it's just pottery? I know some wealthy citizenry have been looking for this. The pagans want to eat the powder from the bodies that have been dead for thousands of years. They think that will give them immortality. They are crazy."

"Yes, the infidels think there is something about these mummies, so we have to take them all."

"Of course, all of them must be taken away. Don't leave any rags behind. These are all money."

"Ella, Bashir, calm down. You can't let the news out when you go back, or we'll be robbed and killed."

"Do you think we are fools? Eldin, take care of your own mouth and your wife's

"Don't take it seriously. I'm thinking about our lives! It's enough for us to die ten times just because of this animal statue. "

"Wait, don't make any noise. There's a mummy below, and another one!"

"Dig up, come on, and see if there is any gold?"

The desert is deserted, and an old pickup truck is parked on the sand. Not far from the vehicle, three men shovel what was in a big earth pits, and piles of earth dug up.

On the opposite side of the mound, there are several pieces of ancient pottery unearthed just now, as well as some broken pieces.

Even if buried in the ground for unknown generations, time has not caused much erosion to these pottery. Most of them are jar shaped containers, with only one animal statue - probably the most valuable one. It is the image of a ram head lion body, which is the size of a bucket and is lifelike.

Beside these cultural relics, there are two nameless mummies, neither in the tomb nor in the coffin. The whole body is wrapped in corpse cloth and soil, like a dead old tree, but it can be seen that they are in human form, and the facial features of the head and face are hidden in the mud.

This place was first discovered by Bashir, who had been engaged in tomb raiding and was always searching for treasures.

But before that, the biggest harvest was just a little leftovers from the big team.

After finding the suspected ancient tomb in this place, Bashir did not inform the big team, but found two good friends that he could rely on.

Ella is strong and strong, tough and good at shooting. She really wants to fight one by one, but she is easy to get hot headed. Eldin has always been the most intelligent person among them, and knows many people in all aspects, so she can sell these treasures better.

It's just that when he drove here with two people, even when he dug his first shovel, he didn't expect that the harvest would be so rich.

There was a mummy.

So it's a little strange Although Bashir is not an archaeologist, he has been working in this field for a long time and knows something about it.

Although it borders on Egypt, no mummies have been unearthed before. Those dignitaries in ancient Egypt were mummied only after their death. Therefore, mummies are usually found in large mausoleums. Are these not Egyptian mummies, just ordinary mummies? That would be less valuable.

But the pottery of ancient Egyptian style shows that this is an ancient Egyptian cemetery.

All these doubts in Bashir's mind were covered with ecstasy when he saw the third mummy.

Three mummies! How much is it worth? There may be a large mausoleum in the desolate land under your feet, with more treasures and more mummies

"Bashir, calm down and dig slowly. If you destroy the body, it's off the price." Said eldin from the side.

"Ha ha, so much, it doesn't matter if you drop some price..."

, in the big pit, was transported with joy, and he was swinging a spade and running down a spade. The upper half of the mummy had already appeared.

"You see, its shroud seems to have a little texture." Ella is also struggling to dig the soil, but also see something, "which Egyptian princess is this?"

Bashir is the most knowledgeable archaeologist here. After a close look, the soil covering the corpse is easy to loose. Some parts of the shroud are not even stained with soil. The surface of a cloth is not only broken and dry, but also appears to have a little color and elasticity. There are some strange words or symbols. I don't know Rusty or painted."Princess? It's impossible... " "If you're a noble, you can't have a coffin," bisher muttered

Ella was just joking, but when her partner said this, she said, "dig out its head and see what it looks like before you know if it is."

Meanwhile, eldin stopped his hand, vaguely feeling that something was wrong Anxious and preoccupied with

, but he could not tell why, he was called out by two companions, and continued to dig together. But because of his uneasy mind, his hand was too strong, and the shovel was too deep to reach the mummy directly in the soil, and what he heard was a loud noise.

"Damn it!" When he was sworn in by a small spade, he threw down the old man. "Let's slow down, what are you doing? His hand is broken. It must be broken. Damn, eldin, it's on your head. How much is lost? Take it from your share

Ella's eyes flashed fiercely. "Eldin, it's not necessarily your money. What if you died before you paid?"

"I feel like..." Eldin said in a puzzled, stuffy voice. "It's not like earth or bone inside. It's stone."

"What?" Bashir was surprised to hear that. He did not investigate and replaced a small shovel to gently and slowly shovel away the soil on the right limb of the mummy.

Not long after, they saw only a few pieces of the shroud had been shovel broken, revealing the contents inside.

Previously, they had wondered that if it was a mummy, it would be in perfect shape. It looked like not only bones, but also muscles.

Now it seems to have been answered that what was in the shroud was not a corpse, but a human figure.

The "skeletons" inside are stones.

But the three people looked at each other and didn't know what it meant, whether it was more valuable or less valuable.
