Chapter 292 Clues (Part [-])
Facts have proved that it is unreliable to get effective intelligence feedback from Fengyue people.
The next morning, Li Xiao spent money to send those two blond beauties away, and walked to his company with slightly flamboyant steps.
When he came again today, he deliberately glanced at the English name hanging on the second floor, carved out of a stone carving of a certain material: "Carson Expedition Company"
"This is indeed an expedition company." Li Xiao couldn't help muttering to himself.
After one night, the thoughts in his mind gradually emerged.It turned out that his current identity was an employee of an expedition company.
In the United States in the early 20th century, because of the Great Depression and the vigorous development of adventure culture, people were inspired to explore unfamiliar areas and dangerous situations for the sake of treasures and dreams of wealth.
And just last month, a "black storm" disaster occurred in the west of the United States. After at least five inches of fertile soil on the surface was blown away by strong winds, many large and small pits were exposed underground.The expedition team composed of Li Xiao, Burns and others excavated a cave full of gold there. With this windfall, it can be said that they made a lot of money, so even in such a depressed economy Under the circumstances, they can still have enough funds in their hands to spend profligately.
……
……
Seeing Li Xiao came to the office, Benny and Burns, who were chatting about nothing, glanced at each other, and quickly surrounded them. Benny rubbed his hands, and his eyes flashed eagerly: "My God, You were so powerful yesterday that you even knocked that fat elephant Jack away with a single punch, Xiao, tell me how you did it."
That Jack is a well-known bully in the neighborhood, and in the past, he was the only one who beat people up.
Burns also chuckled, and jokingly said, "Look at Xiao's rosy face today, it seems that the two beauties served very well yesterday."
Although the two looked joking, recalling the shocking scene of Li Xiao punching Jack flying yesterday, they still felt a little lingering fear. Like a person.
Facing the teasing of the two, Li Xiao shook his hands, with a look of indifference, and sat down on his office seat, with his legs resting on the table in a leisurely manner.
The time was too hasty yesterday, and I haven't had time to take a closer look at the environment here.There are maps hanging on the four walls here, marked with red circles and crosses, which are potential treasures and wealth, including some pickaxes and hammers stained with mud. The tools for excavation are also piled up in a whole warehouse.
Li Xiao didn't look calm on the surface, but he was thinking about the tasks issued by the system in his heart.In the original movie of "The Mummy", whether it is the Black Book of the Dead, the Sun Bible, or the holy urn containing Ansuna's lungs and organs, all of these need to go to Cairo, Egypt, and the system arranges itself as an expedition company employee. Whether it was random or intentional, he doesn't know whether the mummy Morton has been resurrected. It seems that if there is a chance, he needs to go to Cairo, Egypt to find out some news, but it is inevitable to get these things. Need to enter the city of the undead in the desert?However, its exact location is still unknown.
"Where is your boss? I'm going to see him now, I have important treasure clues to report!"
At this moment, a thin voice from outside the door interrupted Li Xiao's meditation.Immediately afterwards, I saw an unremarkable man with dark circles under his eyes, regardless of the security guards, broke in from the outside, caught Burns who was closest to him, and asked impatiently.
"I'm sorry, sir. If you want to see our boss, you need to make an appointment." Burns supported the frame of the mirror with his hand, and said in a gentle manner, but his eyes unconsciously glanced at an office inside.
The man with dark circles was excited, his body was like a slippery eel, he slipped through the gap between Benny and Burns, and rushed straight to the office, but his speed was still not faster than the security guard. After two security guards entered the house, they quickly subdued him.
"Damn it, do you know how much of a deal this will delay, a bunch of idiots, I can guarantee that if you stop me today, you will regret it!" After blowing out the trachea, he said loudly in an angry and hoarse voice.
"It's so noisy, who the hell is shouting!"
However, this huge commotion still caught the attention of Charles, the owner of the expedition company.
The brown office door was pushed open, and an obese man in a suit and with a beer belly stepped out from the inside. Seeing the situation in front of him, he frowned and let out a low sigh.
The man with black eyes lifted his neck from the ground with difficulty, and said quickly, "Charles, I brought a big deal today, and I know the location of Hamtana!"
"You're talking about the city of the undead, Hamtana, which is the burial place where pharaohs were buried?" Charles asked after pondering for a moment.
"That's right, that's what I mean!"
Li Xiao, who was sitting on a chair with his legs crossed, watched everything indifferently from the man with dark circles to the intrusion to the uniform. At that moment, his gaze shrank suddenly!
Hamtana?
If Li Xiao remembers correctly, that is the cemetery of the pharaohs in the past, and it is also the place where the pharaoh's high priest, Imerton, was sealed, and it is also called the city of the dead.
However, this place is very secretive. Not only is it located in a remote place, but it will only appear from the vast desert when the sun rises.
According to the information disclosed in the movie, there are only two people who know the location of the city of the undead, and that is O'Connor and Beni who happened to pass by the ruins of Hamtana during a battle.A few years later, it was precisely because of these two people that they led Jonathan, the Evelyn brothers and sisters, and the American expedition team into Hamtana again, thus unfolding the plot in the movie.
And looking at this unattractive, even obscene-looking man in front of him, no matter what, he couldn't be connected with the movie's leading actor O'Connor.
Could it be Benny?Or is it a liar who came to cheat for clue fees?
Although it is impossible to be sure, at least the plot has developed to this point, and finally there is a clue.
At the same time, Charles had already pushed away the two security guards and pulled the man with dark circles on the floor closer to the office. Outside the office, Benny and Burns looked at each other in blank dismay.
Li Xiao tapped lightly on the table with his fingers, his ears moved, and his keen sense of hearing was mobilized, extending to the back of the door of the manager's office.
About half an hour later, Charles, who was potbellied, came out of the office again and patted the shoulder of the man with dark circles. After the conversation just now, the two looked quite familiar now.
At this time, Charles was radiant, with a hint of excitement on his face, and announced to everyone: "Guys, according to the reliable information held by this guy named Benny, the location of the city of the dead can be confirmed. When you come down, everyone, prepare well, and set off for treasure hunting in Cairo, Egypt in three days, with the goal of Hamtana!"
Thank you for the reward of 1000 points from Xue Xueliu, and thank you for the reward of heartbroken and regretful, great love of death.Yesterday was our temple fair, and we invited relatives to be guests.After finishing writing at three o'clock in the morning, Cong Hua couldn't fall asleep anyway, and when he got up in the morning, he had to arrange a lunch banquet and entertain relatives.I did a rough calculation. At that time, I probably didn’t close my eyes and rest for more than 30 hours. Although I wanted to update it at night, I was really tired. Let me explain to you.
