Chapter 557: Flame and hourglass

   Ahmed's heart throbbed wildly. He found that he could not move or speak, as if he had become a stone statue, he could only watch.

  The person holding the coral branch came slowly, and walked by him in very gentle steps, but turned a blind eye to him.

   Ahmed vaguely felt where he had seen this person. Although his face was obscured by a faint golden light, his outline, especially his profile when walking by his side, made him sure he must have seen it somewhere.

   As a good police detective, anyone who meets it will make an impression in his mind. He is sure that he must have seen this person, maybe on TV or in a magazine. Yes, it must be so. This person must be a celebrity, politician, or rich man. Well, the rich are more likely, because the rich are more likely to appear in the media than ordinary politicians.

   The man walked to the center of the five stone tablets and stopped. Ahmed remembered that it was the pharaoh's sarcophagus, but now the sarcophagus is gone and turned into a flat ground.

   The light from the five stone steles intertwined on the person.

Ahmed looked closely and found that the light was all from the text on the stone tablet. When the light was intertwined, it turned into a three-dimensional text, which was twisted in the air like a holographic projection, as if life was bred in it. The life is average.

   That person is standing in the text of light. But he didn't realize it. He squatted down and wiped the ground with his hand. Ahmed saw a symbol on the ground. It was two connected regular triangles. The vertices and vertices were connected together, and the two center points were connected by a line segment.

   The man put the coral branch on his hand into the apex of the two triangles, where there is obviously a small hole. The coral branch suddenly burned and turned into a raging flame, beating in the surrounding golden light text. Those distorted words fluttered on the flames like moths, as if they wanted to extinguish the flames.

   However, the fire became more and more prosperous, and the golden characters that jumped in were like bamboo thrown into the fire. It was burned to creak, cracked, and finally shattered into fine sand. And the sand did not extinguish the little flame, all flowed into the two triangles next to the flame.

   As more and more golden letters were burned to death, the light of the stele gradually dimmed. Ahmed saw spider-like cracks appear on the stele, becoming denser and denser.

   The last text jumped into the fire and disappeared with a pop.

   Five stone tablets fell down almost at the same time, turning into five piles of stone dust. The stone powder flowed slowly into the triangle symbols along the twists and turns of the tiny cracks on the ground.

   Ahmed saw the sand flowing in the two triangles, because the sand in one of the triangles was getting less, obviously it was flowing to the other triangle. After the sand in the first triangle emptied, the two triangles quickly rotated one hundred and eighty degrees around the coral flame and exchanged positions. Then the sand in the sand-filled triangle began to flow to the empty triangle, and the fine sand slowly flowed along the score line that crossed the apex.

   Ahmed understood that this is an hourglass. Whenever the sand in one sand cone leaks, the hourglass will automatically reverse and flow back from the other sand cone.

   The flame in the middle has been burning. I don't know when three suns appeared in the sky, and each sun shot down a strong light, which fell on the spires of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure respectively.

The hourglass on the ground turned back and forth for unknown number of times. Ahmed was a little tranced, and the hourglass became more and more vivid, as if it stood up and turned into a three-dimensional real hourglass——crystal The outer shell is golden fine sand, and the outside is covered with rosy flames.

   The hourglass became bigger and bigger, and the flame became bigger and bigger. Slowly, a raging fire ignited throughout the world, including the towers of the three pyramids.

   However, the hourglass was still getting bigger, and it really broke away from the flames, turning the flame into a blood-colored flower inside the hourglass.

   Ahmed saw a look of surprise on the face of the old man in the suit, and it seemed that something had gone beyond his expectation.

   When the upper and lower ends of the hourglass were connected to the sky and the earth, the originally majestic Giza Pyramids became children's toys in front of it, and everything became insignificant.

   When all the sand in the sand cone above fell to the ground, I thought the hourglass would turn upside down again, but this time it didn’t. Maybe it happened, but Ahmed didn't feel this reversal, and a scene that shocked him even more happened——

   The entire sea of ​​sand has become the sand at the bottom of the hourglass, and a sand pillar suddenly rises on the ground. The gravity seems to be reversed. The sand pillar passes through the middle point of the hourglass and rushes onto the dome.

   A black hole appeared in the sky, and all the sand was sucked into the hole, without whereabouts.

   The flame went out. It suddenly darkened.

   Before being swallowed by the darkness, the old man stooped and picked up the coral branch.

   Alhammed seemed to see him look back at him, and then saw nothing.

   Then, he felt someone push hard behind him. He staggered, hitting something, like a low wall, and then turned over, suddenly fell to the ground, his buttocks and back were hurt by the hard rocks. He also heard the sound of bang dong dong dong, like hail hitting the car.

   He wasn't sure if he passed out, but there was a blank in his mind anyway. When he opened his eyes in a daze, he saw a white light, surrounded by walls, and he was lying in a small space.

   He sat up abruptly and found himself sitting in the sarcophagus with a shroud wrapped around his arm, and it was not a stone that had hit him just now, but the gold nugget and mask in the coffin.

   He crawled out of the coffin and saw two soldiers lying on the ground. Professor Alef was lying on the other side. They were all blood, but their bodies were intact.

   Adura was lying on the edge of the coffin, with both hands still climbing on the edge of the coffin, seemingly wanting to climb inside. Ahmed remembered that he seemed to have been pushed by someone just now. Judging from the scene, it was probably Adullah who pushed him.

   The five stone steles around the sarcophagus are gone, leaving no traces, as if they never existed. The five corpses in the corner are still there, still facing the sarcophagus, and there is no sign that they have moved.

   Ahmed inspected the bodies of the four dead companions, and found that they were all shot. It should have been hit by a stray bullet in the chaos just now. He was able to escape the catastrophe entirely because Adura pushed him into the coffin.

   It was Adura who saved him.

   Ahmad carefully recalled what happened just now. Everything that the corpse came alive and saw afterwards must be hallucinations, even dreams, but where did the stone tablets go?

   He remembered the curse of the wizard in "The Mummy", and felt that this place was indeed a bit evil. He decided to leave here first.

   When he reached the entrance of the passage, he came back again, carried Adura's body on his back, and then began to climb up the passage with difficulty. Because the passage was really steep, he could only drag Adura's body up little by little, leaving traces of blood in the passage.

   When he came out of the upper sarcophagus, he accidentally caused Adura's body to fall down again. Ahmad was really too weak to go down and start again. He said to the cave of the sarcophagus: "Brother, sorry, I will take you out when I go out and find someone. I will definitely help you with your family. Take care of."

   After he finished speaking, he turned around decisively, followed the path when he came back up, and soon came to the entrance of the pyramid.

   Coming out of the pyramid, Ahmed took a deep breath of fresh air, then slowly opened his eyes to adapt to the dazzling sunlight. He found that the military and police who blocked the Giza area were gone, and tourists were walking around casually.

   Several Arabs are leading a camel to sell a photo business, and a young oriental couple is bargaining with them. After speaking, I went to camel~www.readwn.com~, but the Arab businessman regretted it and wanted to charge them two hundred Egyptian pounds.

   Ahmed felt something was wrong. He walked aimlessly, analyzing what was going on in his mind. Why did the military and police evacuated? Who gave the order?

   As he walked, he walked to the side of the Pyramid of Menkaure and ran into the young oriental couple again. The boy was talking to the guards guarding the pyramid in the concierge, as if he had passed a few banknotes.

   is another one who wants to climb the pyramid. Ahmed thought this, but didn't intend to be nosy, so he walked away.

   He wanted to call the director, but he didn't think about how to say it. After thinking about it, it suddenly occurred to me that something was wrong, and I ran back to the Pyramid of Menkaure.

   He saw two police officers riding camels shouting at the pyramid: "Come down, there will be a sandstorm! Come down!"

   The pyramid administrator also came out of the room and shouted towards the spire. However, what he shouted, Ahmad did not hear, because he recognized him-this administrator, it is Adullah Rashad Rashid Betibrahi Yizjie Rahi Tsharasha Muddzhile.

   The wind rang, and a couple sat on the spire of the pyramid to make a wish, and a gray-black wall appeared on the horizon in the distance.

   The sandstorm is coming. ...
