I stepped back quickly, and the flashlight in my hand almost fell to the ground.At that moment, my heart was extremely tense.In retrospect, the ridiculous thing is that when I saw the strange light in the eyes of the god, the first thing I thought was: Could it be that I had offended the god and made the ancient spell manifest? I waited, but in the eyes of the idol, no light continued to shoot out.Boldly, I took a few steps forward, raised the flashlight again, and shone at the head of the statue. I was prepared for any horrible things that might happen, but nothing happened, only the eyes of the idol, under the illumination of the flashlight, produced a dazzling light again.

But this time, I can see clearly that although the light is dazzling, it is dead, not alive.I got closer and looked carefully, and in an instant, I couldn't help but take a deep breath. Oh My God!Is what I see true? The eyes of the idol are two diamonds that have only been polished roughly, and each one is the size of an egg.Their size is by no means under the British national treasure, the diamond in the crown. The diamonds are thickly coated with varnish, but the varnish has peeled off a bit due to age, which is why when my flashlight shines on it, there is a strong flash. I reached out and dug, and the diamond was so firmly embedded that I couldn't dig it out.I thought of the other statues, both of which had the same eyes protruding outwards. Could it be that their eyes were also big diamonds like this?

The price of these twelve large diamonds is immeasurable. I think even Yige does not know such a secret. Otherwise, he only needs to dig out one of the eyes of the god here. Then he could live like an emperor, without having to sell that brass box to Wang Jun for sixty Egyptian pounds. I didn't continue digging out the idol's eyes because I had more important things to do. When I pushed open the door to the seventh chamber, I took great comfort in knowing that at least I was not completely undiscovered. I pushed the seventh door and found that it was very tight, and it took a lot of strength to push it open.

After pushing the door open, before I stepped in, suddenly, I heard the sound of metal crashing again. Since I entered this ancient temple, this is the third time I heard that sound. Until this time, I could not hear it clearly. It sounded like someone was hitting something with a metal rod. thing. I was stunned for a moment, but I immediately remembered that the door leading to the first stone room had been hooked by me unintentionally, and it would take a lot of time to open it outside. At this time, I can be sure that someone has already reached the bottom of the well.The person who came to the bottom of the well, of course, didn't want to covet the bottom of the well to be dark and cute. His purpose, of course, was to come to these seven stone chambers.

I don't know who it was, it could have been Professor Lomono, but I was one step ahead of him.I decided to ignore that voice and who it was, and decided to go to the seventh stone room first to see what happened.So, I took another step forward, and at the same time, put my back against the door and closed it. I turned on the flashlight and shone on the door. There is also an iron hook on the door, which can be hooked. I hooked the door and turned around. This stone room is completely different from the first six rooms! It has a stone sacrificial table, and on the sacrificial table, there are seven very real masks.That kind of mask is connected to the hair, and the complexion on the mask is reddish brown, so that people can tell at a glance that they are Indians.

Strangely, the mask of the man in the middle was very similar to Yige's in appearance and shape. Before the sacrificial table, there is a stone pier. There was nothing on the stone pier, but I guessed that the stone pier might have been used to place the brass box. There is no god statue in this stone room, but on a stone, almost all words are engraved. I can't understand any of that weird hieroglyphic characters, and of course I can't remember them. I know that if I can read those characters, I may find the key to solving the problem. However, those words were like a heavenly book. I took out a small notepad and decided to trace those strange words in the same way, and ask the knowledgeable ones for advice.

Those words were twisted and twisted, very difficult to describe. I spent half an hour, and the description was less than half. At this time, there was a clear sound of footsteps coming to me! I immediately took a step back and put my ears on the door. The sound of footsteps lingered in the sixth stone room, and after a while, I reached the door. That man is just a door away from me! I stepped back a little so that if the man opened the door, I would be right behind it.I felt the door shake when I went out, but because I hooked it, the man couldn't push the door open. At this time, I had already turned off the flashlight and put away the notepad.A door hook can't stop the thugs. For my own safety, I naturally have to think of countermeasures early, and I can't trace the strange hieroglyphs on the stone.

The door kept shaking, and after about three minutes, I suddenly heard a series of earth-shattering gunshots and continuous fire passing through the door.Then, with a bang, the door was pushed open. I held my breath and hid behind the door, only to hear a person striding into the last stone room, and he seemed to be dragging something heavy in his hand. With very light footwork, I took a step across.When I poked my head out the door and looked into the room, the person who came into the room also happened to turn on the flashlight.As soon as I saw his back, I knew he was Professor Lomono.At the same time, I also knew how the strange cry I heard when I just stepped out of the well came from.

With Lomono's left hand, he was dragging a person. The person's face was torn and bloody. It was obvious that he had been tortured extremely cruelly. That person was Yige. Lomono's flashlight turned around, and I quickly shrank back into the door.Lomono obviously didn't expect that I had arrived before him, so he only took a brief photo, and then stopped the light of the flashlight on the seven masks. Best chance to attack him! I stepped out quietly again, and then, like a leopard, I leaped forward, raised my palm, and slashed straight at the back of Lomono's head! My palm was so unexpected, yet so ruthless and precise, Lomono only let out a low moan, and then fell to the ground.I kicked him, which made him roll out a few times.

Seeing that he had passed out, I quickly leaned over to look at Yige. Yige looked at me with difficulty from his blood-splattered face, and stammered: Mr. Wei, so you are here and I will replace you. As a guide, tell you the history of these seven sacrificial rooms Of course I want to hear about the history of these seven sacrificial rooms, but how can I ask a person whose lips are broken and who utters a word with blood dripping down to say this! I held up Yige's head and put it on my lap: Yige, you are hurt, please don't talk, I will try to heal you.Yige shook his head with difficulty: I didn't hurt the wild donkey, he beat me

When Ige said this, a look of helplessness appeared on his face.My heart suddenly moved: Yige, do you know the writing on that stone? Yige shook his head and said: This is an ancient script in our clan that I don't understand. I supported Yige to stand up, and walked towards the door: It’s fine if you don’t understand, we I was planning to help Yige out of the seven secret sacrificial rooms, and then come back to deal with Lomono.However, I made one of the biggest mistakes. This mistake still makes me feel very sad when I think about it to this day! I thought my blow was very heavy, and Lomono would never wake up so quickly, but Lomono's physical strength was very strong, just when I supported Yige and took a step, I Lomono's voice has been heard. Lomono's voice was very dry, but it was also very shocking. He said calmly: Wesley, raise your hands! My body shook violently, I remembered the gun that Lomono fired when he opened the door just now, he is now behind me, and after I stunned him, I was so negligent that I never put away his gun! His gun is extremely powerful. Under the current situation, there is really no other way but to raise your hands high! Originally, I supported Yige, and I raised my hands high, but Yige couldn't stand upright by himself, and fell to one side of his body.When I was about to go to help him again, the tragedy happened. Behind me, a series of gunshots sounded, and Yige's body suddenly jumped up, and he jumped forward. Yige’s body was not because he jumped up forcefully, but because he was driven to jump up by the force of the bullets that were shot into his body. His body fell out of the door and fell on the ground. I closed my eyes and had no courage. It looks like Yige's hive body. I expected the same result for me. But Professor Lomono didn't shoot again. After the gunshots faded away, he said in a dark voice: Did you see that? I didn't make a sound, of course I saw it, an innocent person died, so terribly.If there is really a nation called Sopa in the world, then the last member of this nation is already dead. Lomono smiled strangely: Wesley, what have you got? I made up my mind: I didn't get anything, I was just copying the hieroglyphs on the stele. Lomono laughed: Really? I tried to keep myself relaxed and even shrugged my shoulders, but since all the muscles in my body were stiff with tension, it must have looked ridiculous to shrug my shoulders.I said: You can search me, now you have the upper hand, right? Lomono just responded with a series of ferocious sneers to me. I heard footsteps, obviously he was looking at everything in the stone room, and I turned my back to him. Of course I knew that no matter where he went, he The muzzle is always aimed at me. What I don't understand is: why doesn't he fix me right away? If he doesn't start immediately, does it mean that I still have a chance to make money? My muscles are terribly stiff, but my brain is not so stiff that I can't think. It's just that under such circumstances, I can't think of anything to do. After about five minutes, which lasted as long as the first century, Lomono spoke again: Wesley, I can't believe that you still think in your heart that you can win against us. I wondered for a moment, he said us, what does that mean?I immediately replied: Unless your bullet has penetrated into my body now, otherwise, in my mind, there is no such word as failure. Lomono was walking towards me, I could hear it, suddenly, he reached out and patted my shoulder, I even wanted to press his hand on my shoulder immediately! But Lomono's movements were unexpectedly flexible. After one shot, he immediately retreated: "You are a very cute character, I admire you, how about joining us?" I took a breath, and it turned out that this was why he didn't kill me!This is undoubtedly an opportunity for me to stall for time, and I immediately said: Who are you including? Lomono let out a hair-raising laugh, and said: Me, and Brac.Just two people, if we add you, we can form an invincible trio in the world. I have already expected that the killer King Braque actually has nothing to do with any spy group in the world, which is why he can always remain extremely mysterious.The actions of the two of them have caused the security agencies all over the world to have a headache. These two people are no different from outstanding geniuses! I said coldly: Do you really think highly of me?Your friend Brack is threatening to kill me! Lomono: No, he told me about you and wanted you to join us. I tried my best to find an opportunity to change this situation, and I said: Then, what benefits can I get? Lomono laughed: Now, I am only the manager of Brac's work, and we can earn more than three million pounds every year, which is completely tax-free.Due to lack of manpower, we had to turn down many businesses. If you join, then our income can be doubled. I nodded and said: I see, a cold-blooded Black, you don't think it's enough, you want another cold-blooded Wesley? Lomono said: It can be said that you have such conditions. I tried my best to hold back the anger in my heart, and suddenly, my heart lit up.Lomono is no different from an extremely greedy person, otherwise, why is he still not satisfied with the annual income of three million pounds? It's so much easier to deal with greedy people!I sneered, and said: Do you think a few hundred thousand pounds a year can move my heart? Lomono was stunned for a moment: boy, what do you mean?I asked back: What do you think I am here for? Lomono said: What are you doing?Isn't it to find the secret formula that can restore the invisible man to his original state? I continued to sneer, and said: There may be a way to make people feel hidden here, but you can just find this way, I don't care. Lomono snapped: What do you mean? I closed my mouth and said no more. Lomono asked again: If you don't say it, I will be impolite.I pretended to sigh helplessly: "Okay, but I also want to take a share." Lomono sneered: Why not take half? I replied immediately, saying: Half?That's too much, as long as I take 10%, my financial resources are enough to build another pyramid. Lomono exclaimed, and I was startled by his sudden exclamation. He could only hear him shouting: Wei, what have you found? What made me even more surprised was that his words were not in English, but in German! When a person is in a tense mood, he will involuntarily speak the language he has been accustomed to since childhood.It turned out that Lomono was German!So, Blake is also a German? I thought about it for a while, and then said: You might as well go and see for yourself, I really feel indescribable, you should look carefully at the eyes of the god. Lomono had already rushed out the door, he passed Yige's body, I immediately took a step forward, but he immediately turned around and shouted: Don't move rashly, raise your hands! He pressed the flashlight and shone it on the eyes of the god statue. The two big diamonds shone with dazzling brilliance. The expression on Lomono's face seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit! His eyes are also like the eyes of a god, protruding all the time, he is whispering, but I can't hear what he is screaming, his body is shaking involuntarily! I lowered my hands, but he didn't pay attention, I thought of rushing towards him, but it was still too dangerous, I just quietly raised Yige's body, and suddenly threw it towards Lomono! Lomono was so preoccupied just now, but his reaction was astonishingly fast! As soon as Yige's body was thrown out, he turned around abruptly. The pistol in his hand shot out a series of sparks, and I was already lying on the ground. The row of bullets probably hit Yige. However, the result I expected appeared. Yige's body pressed towards Lomono. With a wave of Lomono's arm, the flashlight hit the stone wall and went out. In an instant, darkness ruled everything! Naturally, Lomono also knew that in the darkness, he was not absolutely advantageous, so he immediately fell silent. There is still a pistol in Lomono's hand. Although it is pitch black now and Lomono's absolute advantage has been broken, I may not be able to take advantage of him, and I am even more silent. After the flashlight went out, my only action was to take a small knife in my hand.If Lomono exposes the target, then the knife in my hand can fly over immediately! But Lomono had no intention of exposing the target. I looked forward and couldn't see anything. I listened attentively, but I couldn't listen to anything. In fact, in such a quiet state today, I don't need to listen attentively at all. Yes, as long as there is a sound, even if the sound is extremely low, it can be heard immediately. Between me and Lomono, there is an endurance contest, whoever speaks first will suffer! I was lying on the ground as soon as it got dark, and I was still lying on the ground. I don't know where Lomono is, but I'm sure he's never moving. He may be by my side! But what is the distance between the two of us, only a genius knows. I don't know how long it took, and suddenly, I felt something moving in front of me. It could be said to be an intuition.And the forehead of a person is particularly sensitive to this intuition.You can try closing your eyes and ask another person to stretch out a finger and approach your forehead. Before the finger touches you, your forehead will feel a little itchy. This was how I felt at that time. I suddenly felt that my forehead was slightly numb, and there was a slight itching and numbness. Something was approaching me, and it was very close to me! That can't be Lomono, I said to myself, because Lomono can never move without making a sound.Moreover, it must not be a behemoth, because when a behemoth approaches a person, it will not give people that feeling. What is small and silent between actions?In this dark underground chamber, what is the most suitable thing to live in? I immediately had the answer: snakes! There is a snake approaching me! In an instant, I just felt hot all over my body!I know this is very unwise, because snakes are very sensitive to heat.If I remained calm, the snake could swim up to my face and still not attack me.But at this time, my whole body became hot, and my body temperature suddenly increased, which was like telling the snake in front of me to come and bite me! I know this, but I can't calm down, this place is not far from the desert, the poisonous snakes in the desert, I would rather be Lomono so close to me! The sweat on my forehead kept flowing down.Between the poisonous snake and Lomono, I have to make a choice. I just feel the numb feeling on my forehead, which is getting worse. The snake may be only an inch or two away from me. Suddenly, I lost Gathering his composure, he uttered a loud cry and rolled away. Just as I rolled away, deafening gunshots and a series of flames shot out towards the place where I was lying down just now, and the broken bricks shattered by the bullets splashed on my body! Scientists say that human eyes can hold on to what they see for one-fifteenth of a second, so there is such a thing as movies in the world.Lomono fired six shots, and the six shots were fired at the same time. When I saw the place where the gun was fired, I immediately jumped up and fired the knife.When I sent out the knife, the fire of the last shot had already been extinguished, but there was still that fifteenth of a second! As soon as my knife flew out, I heard Lomono's angry scream and the sound of the pistol falling to the ground. I knew that my knife hit the right hand of the target I was going to shoot, Lomono, and I would naturally not give him another chance to raise the pistol. I rushed out and hit Lomono's body , knocking Lomono out. Lomono's body hit the wall, and I heard the sound of bones breaking.The collision just now was a critical moment for me. Naturally, I had to use my strength to break Lomono's bones, and I don't feel regretful. I immediately rushed over again, lifted his body up, no matter what part it was, and punched him twice until I felt that the body I was lifting was already so soft that I had no strength at all. Only then did he put it down, took out the lighter and lit it. I picked up the gun first, then the flashlight.The flashlight just fell loose, and it wasn't broken. I turned it a little, and the flashlight turned on, so I saw the snake again! It was the biggest cobra I have ever seen in my life. At this time, it was coiled up and its shovel-like head was held up. I took a breath and fired three shots at its shovel-like head. It slapped and twisted, but it couldn't bite anymore. I turned to look at Lomono, and couldn't help being stunned for a moment. The three punches I just made were actually superfluous! Lomono's skull was broken, and his eyes were protruding. It was obvious that he died when he was hit. The three heavy punches I just hit were on a dead man.I wiped the sweat from my forehead, and glanced at Yige's shapeless body.I smiled wryly.I finally got my revenge for Yige. I leaned over Lomono's body, and I found another pistol of the same kind. This made me break out in a cold sweat again, because if Lomono hadn't hit his head on the wall and died instantly, then he must have time to launch another pistol to finish me.There is only a thin line between life and death! I put his pistol on my waist, and found a notepad in his jacket pocket. The notepad is very thick, especially with the crocodile skin face, so it must be a very important one. something.I flipped through it a bit, and saw a letter in the notepad.The letter was sent from where I came from, to a hotel in Cairo, to be picked up by Lomono. When I saw the writing on the envelope, I could see that it was Braque's handwriting. I put the notebook and the letter in my pocket, and then I went back to the seventh sacrificial room, and traced the strange pictographic characters on the stone wall. This took me a lot of time, so when I got out of the seven secret rooms, passed through the passage, and came to the bottom of the well again, I could already see that it was already twilight. I remember that I made an appointment with Wang Jun. If I still don't see him at the construction site at dawn, he will come to pick me up. I came here to ask for the mystery of the object that can emit transparent light, and to ask whether it is possible for people who have been illuminated by that transparent light to recover.I've been where I want to be, but I haven't gotten there. However, it is also possible that the goal I want to achieve has already been achieved, because at this time, I still don't know what the many pictographs I copied down represent? Maybe in this piece of text, everything is recorded in detail, and everything I want to know is recorded.I decided to go out first and meet up with Wang Jun, and, in fact, I also need to rest. I climbed up the well, and walked out of the temple following the sign when I came. After a while, I was outside the gate of the temple, and I saw Wang Jun driving the jeep towards the temple.In front of me, there was still a big truck, and I thought to myself: Has he already called the police? Wang Jun's car reached the stone steps first, and he waved to me. I ran down the stone steps, and when I reached Wang Jun's side, the truck had already stopped.I saw that the trucks were all engineers, and I didn't pay attention to them. I got in the car and said: I need to take a good rest. While driving the car, Wang Jun said: The pilot of the plane has been bribed, and Lomono and Yige have already arrived at the construction site! I sigh: I know, I've seen them all, and they're all dead.Wang Jun was taken aback, and the car slanted outwards hastily.Fortunately, it was in the wilderness. If it was in the city, it would have caused trouble already. As he steered the car into the right path, he asked me: Dead?How did they die? I put my hand on my forehead and said: Yige died at the hands of Lomono, and I avenged Yige. Wang Jun sighed: Wesley, you killed a math genius!I shook my head: No, I killed one of the most terrifying criminal geniuses. Wang Jun said stubbornly: But, he is also a math genius! I said: He may have a very deep understanding of mathematics, but his real mathematics knowledge will never be higher than that of an ordinary university professor!Wang Jun refuted me and said: Nonsense, everyone knows that Lomono is the most qualified person to receive the Nobel Prize, as long as his new book comes out. I said coldly: Then, why hasn't his new work been released yet? Wang Jundao: It takes time for a genius work on mathematics, do you think it is you?You can write thousands of words in an hour.I couldn't help feeling angry: Wang Jun, are you attacking personally?Let me tell you, I didn't kill Professor Lomono! Wang Jundao: No, I have already checked, Professor Lomono is visiting Egypt, and it is he who you killed. I shrugged: OK, let me ask you, where is Professor Lomono from? Wang Jundao: He is a Ukrainian. After 1917, he left Russia and went to live in Germany. When the Second World War broke out, he was assisted by Allied agents and went to Britain. The Second World War ended. Later, he returned to Germany, but after staying for less than half a year, he came to the East and stayed there. I laughed and said: Are you so familiar with his history? Wang Jun sighed: Although he almost killed me in the desert, I am still his admirer. I patted him on the shoulder and said: I believe the problem came after the war. When Professor Luo returned to Germany, there was a German who must have looked exactly like Lomono. I am sure he must be a German spy pretending to be He, to the East, the real Lomono is already dead!I killed that German! Wang Jun obviously couldn't hold this fact in his mind. As I said this, he shook his head. I had no choice but to say: Okay, I will inform the international police to investigate this matter, I got a notebook from Lomono, look, it's all written in German! Wang Jundao: He has lived in Germany for a long time, so he naturally wrote German.I took out the notepad, flipped through a page, and read a few lines.I haven't read this notebook since I got it. At this time, I just read a few lines at random, which made me dumbfounded! What is recorded in that notepad is all diary, but it is not recorded every day, only important events are recorded.
