Chapter 29: City of the Undead
"A pair of Aces, followed by 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K." Jiang Ning threw out the cards in his hand, looked at the expressions of the three Yankees on the opposite side, and felt secretly refreshed: "Pay, friend! "
The three Yankees looked like hell: "My friend, your behavior is not considered a 'friend'!"
"Hehe, don't you Americans boast that you like to make 'friends'?" Jiang Ning sarcastically said.
The three Yankees looked at each other and paid money one after another.
"Come on, I don't believe you have such good luck. You can still win 7 games in a row!"
Jonathan was on the side, shouting excitedly: "Yo ho, Ning Gan is so beautiful, hahaha." Looking at the piles of banknotes in front of him, Jonathan's eyes almost popped out.
"Hehe." Jiang Ning took the cards and was about to shuffle them.
The Yankee with glasses pressed Jiang Ning's hand and said, "Leave it to me to shuffle the cards!"
Jiang Ning made a gesture of please, not caring who shuffled the cards. After shuffling the cards, everyone started a new round of gambling.
...
Looking at the good cards in his hand, ignoring Jonathan's appearance that he was about to spill out, he straightened the cards in his hand and was about to throw them out. Hearing gunshots, Jiang Ning suddenly turned to the cabin: "No, something happened." After speaking, he ran over.
"Ning, wait for me!" Jonathan said, looked at the banknote on Jiang Ning's place, took it away, and then chased after Jiang Ning.
Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!
There were bursts of gunshots, and Jiang Ning looked intently, and many men in black appeared on the boat at some point. The pistols and submachine guns kept firing, and the wooden cabin fragments flew around.
Jiang Ning's reaction was quick, and the bullets that fell on Jiang Ning's body were all bounced off by an invisible barrier. Afterwards, he fired alternately with both guns, killing and wounding many men in black. The family of tomb guards is numerous and powerful, and they don't know where they got the information, so they know their whereabouts. Moreover, they sneaked into the boat without anyone noticing.
"Ning, there are too many of them, we are no match. Abandon the ship!" O'Connor looked at Jiang Ning and shouted.
"O'Connor, where's Evelyn?"
Hearing Jiang Ning's words, Evelyn nodded: "Ning, I'm here. I'm fine, don't worry." Seeing Evelyn wearing only pajamas and following O'Connor, Jiang Ning knew she was fine.
"You guys go first, I'll cover you." After finishing speaking, Jiang Ning's two guns kept firing, and his eyes were slightly silvery. The invisible thought power turned into an invisible barrier to protect the two of O'Connor. To go to Hamna Tower, O'Connor is needed to lead the way, and Evelyn is a very good friend with him because of three years of getting along. Naturally, Evelyn cannot be injured, but because the wound on the soul has not healed, Jiang Ning needs to restrain the use of mind power.
Otherwise, it may be detrimental to the healing of the soul.
...
On the second day, Jiang Ning and the others bought a few camels in a desert market, and then rushed to Hamna Tower day and night.
The members of the tomb guards watched them from a distance.
"Notify the clansmen to gather, and absolutely must not let them discover that monster!"
...
Finally, after walking for a day and a night, we arrived at our destination.
Almost at the same time, Americans also came here one after another.
"Hey O'Connor, the camels are nice!"
O'Connor ignored it, and continued to look at the empty desert area ahead.
Jiang Ning also quietly used his mental strength to look at the open area ahead, but found that there was nothing in front of him, nothing at all. However, Jiang Ning, who has watched the movie, is very clear that there is indeed Hamna Tower, the capital of the undead, right in front of him.
"Could it be the divine power of the god of death that covered Hamna Tower?" Jiang Ning vaguely guessed, and at the same time was in awe of the power of the gods. He was also curious about the high priest Emerton who was buried under the leg of the god of death. He didn't know that once the high priest who had been dead for three thousand years was resurrected,
What kind of power will it have?
Regarding this point, Jiang Ning was very curious and wanted to see and see. By the way, I also want to ask High Priest Immorton for some information.
...
During this waiting time, the sun hung high in the sky, and the empty desert in the distance. It was as if an invisible hand wiped away the dust out of thin air, and a spectacular scene appeared. Dazzling everyone, Hamnata, the capital of the undead, appeared!
"Ning, why don't you make a bet to see who gets to Hamna Tower first!" the blond-haired American suggested.
Jiang Ning smiled and said, "Of course, how much do you pay?"
"Three hundred yuan!"
"Another two hundred dollars, five hundred pounds!"
The United States hesitated for a moment, and then said affirmatively: "Okay, five hundred is five hundred. Just because you are good at the gambling table, doesn't mean you are the same at horse racing."
"idiot!"
"drive!"
Everyone shouted, each whipped the mounts under them and ran towards Hamna Tower.
The Jiang Ning five rode camels, and after a while, they left a group of Americans on horses far away.
...
"Here, five hundred pounds!" The blond-haired American counted a stack of banknotes and handed them to Jiang Ning with a depressed face.
Jiang Ning flicked the pound on his hand and said with a smile: "Man, thank you. If you can find the treasure in Hamna Tower, we will be playing when you go back!"
"Let's talk about it then!"
...
"Are you sure the thing in your hand is useful?" O'Connor frowned, watching Evelyn fiddling with the ancient mirror in her hand.
Evelyn didn't raise her head: "Of course, as long as the sunlight is calibrated, the room will be filled with light. This is a trick of the ancient Egyptians!" Evelyn carefully calibrated the ancient mirror to refract the sunlight into the tomb. In an instant, the ancient tomb was illuminated, and everyone entered the tomb one by one.
"What is this place? Where is the treasure?" Jonathan asked.
Evelyn looked around: "This is the embalming room, where mummies are made."
"I hope that a mummy that has lived for three thousand years will not suddenly pop up later..." Jiang Ning laughed.
"Oh, what are you talking about?"
Jiang Ning shrugged: "It's nothing, just be active and get angry."
...
After that, they walked into a corridor and saw the legs of Death.
"Reaper's legs, the secret compartment must be somewhere."
At this time, everyone heard footsteps, and a group of people suddenly appeared around the corner. The two sides were almost instinctive, and the guns in their hands were pointed at each other at the same time.
Seeing that it was a human, both sides breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"That seems to be mine." The American wearing glasses stepped forward and looked at the tool bag in Evelyn's hand.
"No!"
The two sides pointed their guns at each other again, looking at the gun pointed at his head, Jiang Ning said unhappily: "Dude, you'd better not point this thing at me. I'm very upset, you know?"
The blond American smiled and said, "I don't want to do that either, but you guys are so restless."
The old American said, "This place belongs to us, you should leave."
"Never!" Evelyn said with certainty.
O'Connor said, "Then why isn't your name engraved on it? Old guy!"
"We have more people than you!"
"Really?" Jiang Ning pointed a gun at the old man: "Then you are definitely the first to die, old man! Do you want to try?"
Evelyn came to the middle at this time and pressed the hands of both parties: "Listen, children. Don't make conflicts here, we will leave this place to you."
"Evelyn, we discovered this place first. And..." Of course, Jiang Ning didn't want to give up this place. In the leg compartment of Death God, there is a box for storing the Black Book of the Dead.
Evelyn stopped Jiang Ning: "It's okay, let's dig somewhere else."
...
"According to the records of archaeologists, there is a secret compartment under the God of Death's legs. From here, dig it up. See what you can find." Evelyn ordered, flipping through the notebook. Jiang Ning and O'Connor took turns using tools to try to pry it open.
And the warden, at this time, had already sneaked away alone to hunt for treasure. But no one cared about him.
In the compartment, Evelyn popularized the knowledge of making mummies to everyone. Jonathan was playing golf with a hoe in boredom. He didn't know what mechanism he had encountered, and the sarcophagus holding Imerton fell down with a bang.
Seeing this, Jiang Ning knew that this was the sarcophagus used by Pharaoh's guards to imprison Imerton.
Looking at the coffin, Evelyn said: "This sarcophagus is actually placed at the feet of the god of death. If he was not famous during his lifetime, then he has committed a heinous crime!" Blowing off the dust on the coffin, Evelyn read the words on it. Text: "He doesn't deserve to leave his name!"
O'Connor pointed to a recess that looked like a key: "This looks like a lock. If there is no key, it will take a month to open."
"Key?" Evelyn thought of something, flipped through her purse and took out the metal box: "Do you remember the key that the man in black said on the boat? So he meant this." After speaking, she opened the key, The key fits perfectly with the seal.
"ah!"
At this time, everyone heard the warden's screams and ran out quickly. Seeing the warden seem to be crazy, covering his head, screaming as he ran, until his head hit the wall and knocked him to death. The warden's accident cast a shadow over everyone's mind. Only Jiang Ning knew the reason. It is estimated that even if Jiang Ning stopped the fat warden, he would not listen.
