In a haze like hallucinations, Evelyn came to a splendid palace in a trance. In the distorted light and shadow, countless men and women wearing or not wearing the traditional robes of the ancient Egyptian 'Nugbai' Shuttle back and forth in the resplendent hall, most of them dressed extremely cool, even the most honorable priests and nobles simply wore a linen robe.
The entire palace, from Evelyn's point of view, is simply outrageous.
When she looked back, she couldn't help screaming. In the reflection of the gold decoration, she saw the appearance of "herself". Exposed almost naked to the air, this can be regarded as a shame for a traditional woman in the 20th century.
But the people around her were not much better. Based on the simplicity and crudeness of ancient Egyptian archaeology in the 20th century, Evelyn was unaware of some breakthrough research on ancient Egypt in modern archaeology.
Like the nakedness of the Egyptians!
Because of the location in the tropics and the extremely underdeveloped textile industry during the ancient Egyptian civilization, Egyptians used to be naked. In the vision, Evelyn was fortunate to see these precious historical information. Naked servants and waiters came in the hall. come and go. Serving precious fresh fruits and food, young children were all naked, and noble ladies and noble men were no better. Evelyn saw her father's favorite concubine, Ansuna, dyeing her breasts with dye. Naked outside, while High Priest Imerton watched them intently.
"It's so immoral!" Evelyn, who was educated in traditional Christianity, almost screamed.
Of course, she didn't know that in early Christianity, prostitutes still had the custom of doing business at the door of the church. Their largest group of guests was the priest in the church. The Jewish holy king Solomon in the Old Testament once asked people to disperse some women. This conflicted with the elders of the church.
"Wait!" Evelyn finally came to her senses: "Why did I call that woman Ansuna? And why can I see Imerton? And who is the man I call father?"
"Nina!" She saw an old man surrounded by the most gorgeous jewelry, and waved to herself enthusiastically.
Evelyn saw 'myself' and heard the call of the old man, and walked towards him cheerfully. The old man opened his arms and said loudly: "Nina, my most beautiful daughter, the princess of Egypt, the brightest girl on the Nile. The people around cheered, and among the cheering crowd, Evelyn even saw O'Connor.
As a bodyguard, he stood respectfully beside the priest of the sun god Ra, serving Pharaoh.
Then Evelyn saw herself and Ansuna starting a duel, and Ansuna was superior and won the victory. The Pharaoh stood up and said: "The one who is suitable to protect me is my concubine. And I will put Death The bracelet, give it to my princess for safekeeping!"
Evelyn saw a strange bracelet made of gold and placed it in front of her. The overall bracelet looked like a scorpion, exuding the unique dazzling light of gold. Evelyn looked at this gorgeous bracelet, as if the whole His soul was attracted by it, and he stared at it blankly until his soul floated up and was sucked into the bracelet by that invisible attraction, and Evelyn was struck by a terrifying sense of trembling.
She screamed and woke up from the nightmare, and O'Connor next door yelled: "Evelyn, what happened!" When he rushed in from the door, he saw Evelyn pulling the quilt, panicking Look at the void in front of you. O'Connor asked nervously, and she replied: "It's okay, O'Connor, I'm having a nightmare!"
O'Connor went to her bedside to comfort her and said: "It should be the reason for that adventure. After you came back from Hamna Tower, you have been thinking about not belonging, and there is a great depression hidden in your heart. Everything is over. Those People won't be coming back for us. Look, we're leaving Cairo tomorrow by boat for London."
"Although those people are terrible, the gold they provide us is enough for you to study in England!" O'Connor said gently: "Now Cairo has fallen into the hands of the Eye of Horus, and the whole city is under the control of the Eye of Horus." Killing, those ruthless men in black are not only massacring local believers, but also taking over all the functions of the Egyptian government."
"Except for the vicinity of the Suez Canal, which is protected by the United Kingdom, it is still safe. The rest of Egypt has become a nightmare on earth."
"No, O'Connor!" Evelyn shook her head and said, "The matter is not over, it is far from over, we cannot escape this vortex, this is what is destined, I am the princess of ancient Egypt, and you are Ra's bodyguard, that monster that ran out of Hamna Tower, is the lover of my father's favorite concubine Ansuna, the high priest, and your immediate superior, Imerton."
"This is all your hallucination..." O'Connor interrupted her: "You are too nervous, so you regard the archaeological materials you studied during the day as your own memory. This is just a nightmare! Practice for a while, you will alright!"
O'Connor put the quilt up for her, and repeated again: "Tomorrow we will leave Cairo and take a boat from the Suez Canal to London... Soon, we will be able to stay away from this nightmare land!"
After O'Connor turned and left, Evelyn was stunned for a long time. She said to herself, "Ansuna and Imerton conspired to kill Pharaoh? That's why Imerton received the most terrible punishment in Egypt." Insect bites! And the priests who have been eaten by insects, their magic power will become stronger and stronger in this eternal torture, and when they unlock the seal, they will destroy Cairo."
"They will set off ten plagues on the banks of the Nile, turn the river into blood, and let the fire of heaven burn Cairo!"
Evelyn matched the legends recorded in the literature with what happened not long ago, holding her head in horror and said: "So, the 'God's Punishment' that tried to destroy Egypt not long ago was Imerton's curse? ... By the way, The Bracelet of Death!" Evelyn got up quietly and searched through the documents she had packed.
She dug out a photocopied document from a pile of messy materials, "The Bracelet of Death... It should be here. It is mentioned in the records about the ancient Egyptian Scorpion King that when he was about to die in defeat, he betrayed his own... The soul was given to Anubis, and he obtained an incomparable magical treasure, which can recruit the dead in the underworld as warriors."
"This should be the Bracelet of the God of Death!"
"In that dream, I was the princess of ancient Egypt. Through the contest, I won the bracelet of death, and Ansuna was responsible for protecting my father, Pharaoh King Djoser. In the end, she and her lover Imerton killed him. My father... the hell? No wonder I hate Ansuna so much."
"Not only that!" The voice from behind Evelyn made her almost scream in fright, but she soon realized that she couldn't make a sound at all. She turned her head in horror and saw the nightmarish man standing there. Behind her, he looked at her leisurely. Chen Ang said calmly: "You hate your aunt Ansuna so much, probably because you are rivals in love?"
"Aunt? Ansuna?" Evelyn opened her mouth wide, and she found that she could make a sound again, and said, "Rival, you mean I like Imerton? No, no, no, I can't have an affair with him."
Chen Ang's expression was very rich, he smiled slightly, and said interestingly: "Of course it's not Imerton!"
"Then why..." Evelyn was stunned suddenly, she said in horror: "No, no, it's impossible... it can't be like this, you mean..."
"Yes! If Ansuna hadn't killed the pharaoh, you would be the queen of the pharaoh. The princess of Egypt, the pharaoh's intended bride...Ansuna is your father's sister. If your father is not dead, you will Marry him, if he dies, you will marry his son, your elder brother. As an archaeologist, you should know that because women also have the right to inherit in the Pharaoh royal family, so in order to prevent the kingship from falling apart, give someone like A boy like O'Connor, the pharaohs would marry their sisters, even their daughters."
Chen Ang said with emotion: "What a chaotic royal family!"
"The reason why you had a bad relationship with Ansuna in your previous life... that's natural. Who has a good relationship with a woman who can be her own husband? The reason why Ansuna betrayed Pharaoh is also very simple. If she married Imerton, she could have been the female pharaoh of Egypt, because she was next in line of succession to your father, but your father ruined everything."
