I became the god of light.

Chapter 317 Pyramids and Curses (Update 4000)

Su Yun shook his head and asked, "When are you leaving?"

Emma looked at the time and said, "Let's go now."

Everyone nodded, and after everyone picked a camel, they were ready to set off.

But before they could take a few steps, a middle-aged man shouted from behind.

"Hey, wait for me!"

Um?
Everyone turned their heads to look suspiciously.

I saw Boss Charlie, leading a camel full of supplies, rushing towards this side quickly.

"Boss, who are you?" Emma glanced at the camel and asked in surprise.

"How about taking the risk and adding me?" Boss Charlie De smiled.

"Boss, aren't you going?" Emma was a little puzzled.

Charlie got on the camel, "I think I've lived too comfortably these years, and it's time for an adventure among men!"

As he said that, he glanced at Carlos and sighed, "I really miss the days when the two of us wandered together, this time it's the last adventure before retirement!"

Carlos was taken aback, and said in surprise, "You are so rich, and you really want to go to such a dangerous place?"

"It's not like your character."

"Ahem..." Charlie coughed a few times, and said embarrassedly, "I'm just curious, I'll just take a look outside, there shouldn't be any danger."

Ok……

Carlos and Emma thought no wonder, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's go!"

A group of people walked towards the empty and daunting desert under the golden sunshine.

……

The sun was shining, and there were no clouds in the sky.

Jingle ~ Jingle ~
A series of ringing bells, as well as the sound of trampling, sounded from time to time as the camels walked.

"This camel shakes so hard I want to throw up!" Emma complained.

She glanced at the camel and saw that its mouth was full of saliva, and she felt a little disgusted.

"gross!"

Charlie smiled disapprovingly, "I'm the opposite of you, I think it's fluffy, look how cute it is."

He reached out and rubbed the yellow down on the camel's head.

"I can't tell, boss, you are still a fluffy person." Emma joked.

After speaking, she looked around and found something.

Pointing to a very grand building in the distance, she exclaimed, "That pyramid is the Pyramid of Khufu, it's really grand!"

Everyone looked in the direction she was pointing at.

Due to the direction problem, they happened to be able to see the pyramid over there from a distance.

The Pyramid of Khufu is the largest pyramid in ancient Egypt. It is 146.59 meters high. Due to long-term weathering, the top is peeled off by 10 meters. It is now 136.5 meters high, which is equivalent to the height of a 40-story building.

The body of the tower is made of 230 million huge stones, ranging in size from 1.5 tons to 160 tons.

The total weight of the tower is about 684 million tons, and its scale is the largest among the more than 70 pyramids discovered in Egypt so far.

"It's magnificent." Charlie agreed.

Carlos said curiously, "I heard that there are many rumors about the Pyramid. If you know anything, tell us to relieve your boredom."

Su Yun glanced at him, "I know something."

Everyone's eyes immediately shifted to him.

Su Yun said, "The pyramid is known as one of the seven wonders of ancient times."

"The rest are the Colossus of Rhodes, the statue of Zeus at Olympia, the Lighthouse of Pharos, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, and the tomb of King Mausolos."

"These are miraculous buildings. Even if you don't understand them, you should have heard of one or two."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Su Yun shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, the other six ancient wonders have been destroyed for various reasons, leaving only the Egyptian pyramids."

He paused for a moment, "Of course, there are more than these miraculous buildings, but now the world has selected several new wonders."

"Let's continue talking about pyramids." Su Yun turned back to the topic.

"According to various evidences, ancient Egypt was not as simple as we imagined. Whether it is the application of astrology or mathematics, even from the perspective of today's people, it is incredible."

He thought for a while and found a few examples, "Just like the three waist stars of Orion in the sky, after calculation, the vertical line just falls on the position of the three largest pyramids headed by Khufu."

"Even the circumference of the base of the Great Pyramid divided by twice the height of the tower happens to be the famous pi!"

Emma had some doubts and asked, "Why is the pyramid related to Orion?"

Su Yun explained, "Orion was of great significance to the Egyptians. They believed that God lived in Orion, where heaven was."

Everyone was stunned.

"What about the mummy?" Emma asked curiously.

Su Yun smiled and said, "The ancient Egyptians were superstitious that after death, the soul is immortal."

"They believe that human beings are made up of body and soul. Even in the world of the underworld, the dead still need their own body. As long as this body is kept intact, the soul will not perish."

"If the body rots and destroys, the soul will also gradually be lost. The complete destruction of the body means the complete death of the soul."

Su Yun finally said, "That's why they made mummies in order to keep their souls alive, and they even tried to revive them after death."

Emma listened, and suddenly felt a little worried in her heart, and said, "I heard that there are curses in the pyramids, and anyone who wants to dig will suffer bad luck."

Listening to Emma's meaningful words, except for the bodyguards who didn't understand the destination, everyone else understood what she wanted to express.

"I've heard of curses too." Su Yun said, "It is said that every pyramid has been cursed, and every pharaoh has its own guardian spell.

"Like Tutankhamun, there is a chilling text written on the inscription of his tomb, 'Whoever disturbs the peace of the pharaoh, the wings of death will descend on his head'."

When Charlie and the others heard the words, no matter whether they had heard about it long ago, they all felt worried.

"There's no real curse, is there?" Matt's face was a little stiff.

"Who knows." Su Yun said casually, "However, some rumors about the curse are very widespread."

"The American Journal of Medicine has actually published a report confirming that among the 100 people who have entered the Great Pyramid, the probability of dying of cancer in the next 10 years is as high as 40%."

"The people who excavated Tutankhamun's tomb also encountered many accidents."

"Let me just talk about it, I don't know if it's true, just listen to it casually." Su Yun said.

"About the pharaoh's curse, some locals didn't believe it, thinking it was just to scare off the tomb robbers. It wasn't until a series of encounters happened during the excavation of Tutankhamun's tomb that people's views changed."

Su Yun said slowly, "In 1922, a British explorer named Carnarvon and British Egyptian archaeologist Carter led an archaeological team to find Tutankhamun's tomb."

"Just when the archaeological team discovered the tomb and was exploring inside, they suddenly received a telegram that the explorer Carnarvon, who led the exploration of the tomb this time, suddenly died of a serious illness."

"It is said that when he died, he kept saying the pharaoh's name, and his expression was very frightened. The hospital even had a power outage for no reason at that time, and the power company couldn't give a reasonable explanation."

Su Yun thought of something, and smiled lightly, "Up to now, if this matter doesn't cost a million dollars, the hospital probably won't be able to survive."

Everyone was speechless. How did this person laugh at such a horrible thing?
"Keep talking." Boss Charlie couldn't help being curious.

"Shortly after that person died, even more bizarre things happened."

"The guy who was responsible for pushing open the door of the tomb and finding Tutankhamun suffered from a strange mental disorder not long after, and died in extreme pain."

"The person responsible for compiling the cultural relics in the tomb chose to commit suicide a few years later. I heard that his father also chose to commit suicide a year later."

"There was also the curator of the museum in Cairo at the time, who said he didn't believe in the so-called curse at all, and was directly responsible for directing the workers in the tomb to take out the cultural relics."

"The result was unexpected. The man died of a heart attack within a month."

Su Yun finally said, "In the end of the whole matter, more than 20 people died strangely, even Tutankhamun's amulet was scattered outside, and several people were killed."

"For a long time after that, everyone who entered the pharaoh's tomb, whether they were explorers or tomb robbers, all died accidentally, either by accident or by illness."

"Even the guy who untied Tutankhamun's shroud and took X-rays, after taking a few X-rays, his body became extremely weak, and he died after a while."

As Su Yun's words fell, everyone shuddered a little, and Emma asked in a daze, "Is there really a curse in the world?"

"There may be a curse, or some kind of germ." Su Yun speculated.

"Hmph!" Professor Luca was disdainful when he heard the words, "You're talking about ghosts and ghosts, can you believe what's spread on the Internet?"

"These things must have a scientific basis. When technology develops, the secret will be unearthed sooner or later."

Having said that, his face is full of confidence.

Boss Charlie asked, "Professor Luca, don't you believe in mysterious power?"

"I'm an atheist." Professor Luca said lightly.

Although he usually talked about God or something, it was just a habitual mantra, and he didn't believe that there was a god in the world at all.

Emma wiped her sweaty forehead, frowned and retorted.

"Professor, recently there have been rumors about the immortals from the East and the priest who is suspected of being a seraph. Doesn't this prove that there are mysterious powers in this world?"

Hearing what she said, after thinking about it, Tam and the others couldn't help but be full of approval on their faces, feeling that Emma was right.

Charlie and the others couldn't help but feel a little worried about the next expedition.

When Professor Luca heard the words, not only did he not agree, but he snorted and scolded, "I said, can you believe things on the Internet?"

"Those false and exaggerated videos, only you young people will believe it. I have seen this kind of hype a lot!"

When those videos first came out, he was indeed shaken in his heart, but he quickly regained his sobriety, and at the same time strengthened his mind, thinking that it was all false propaganda.

As long as he has not seen it with his own eyes, he will never believe it!
The other people on the side were a little surprised when they heard the words. Professor Luca's thoughts are too stubborn, right?
"But it looks very real! How could it be fake!" Emma expressed disbelief.

She said, "Their appearance represents that there are mysterious forces in the world, and gods should also exist!"

"Little girl, you are still too young." Professor Luca shook his head and sighed, "Even if what you said is true, how can you prove that God exists?"

"No matter how you look at those two people, they are very different from gods, right? Even if they really have magical powers, they are just things that have been cultivated."

"The most direct evidence is that if there is a god in this world, according to the description of the power of the gods, our world must have been destroyed long ago. How can we live a good life now."

Professor Luca said lightly, "Therefore, there are no gods in the world. Those who have cultivated some skills are called gods by ignorant people."

Listening to Professor Luca's words, everyone looked thoughtful and felt that what he said made sense.

Maybe gods are just some powerful people, and there is nothing special about them at all. Maybe their current technological weapons can kill gods!
Only those ancient people who were ignorant and did not have the help of technology would believe in and submit to God.

Emma opened her mouth, wanting to refute something, but couldn't speak.

What Professor Luca said is correct. The immortals in the east don’t understand them, but the priest guessed that the seraphim came to the world. That’s just a guess. Who can prove that God really exists?
Looking at the people who agreed with him, Professor Luca swept away the previous depression and couldn't help showing a satisfied smile on his face.

Su Yun listened to their discussion with a strange expression on his face.

But he didn't say anything, instead, he sank his mind into the space of the godhead, and checked the godhead carefully.

Su Yun glanced at the blue color that appeared at the bottom of the grid, calculated silently, and thought to himself, "According to calculations, the next promotion should require about 200 million faith threads."

"Now there are only five or 10,000+ faith threads, and there are still tens of thousands short of 140 million."

Looking at this data, he couldn't help but frowned, and began to think seriously.

"There is such a big difference in the quantity. It is difficult to get so many belief threads by ordinary methods."

After thinking for a while, he hesitated a little, and then a firm look appeared in his eyes.

In order to resist the seventh-level god, at least one promotion is required, so the impact of this shot seems to be a little bigger.

After talking all the way, everyone rode camels and walked a certain distance. The sun in the sky caused the temperature to change rapidly, making them a little uncomfortable.

At this time, Charlie suddenly thought of something, and said to everyone, "I almost forgot, I have something for you, stop now!"

Everyone pulled the rope, which made the camel stop and looked over curiously.
