Cairo, Egypt, Museum of Ancient Antiquities

Since Napoleon's expedition to Egypt in the late 18th century, a large number of Egyptian antiquities were brought to Europe. At the same time, scholars who followed Napoleon to Egypt published a large number of illustrated books on Egyptian temples and tombs, making Egyptian culture more accessible. It is well known to Europeans, and the news about the huge treasures hidden in Egypt has also made countless Europeans come to Egypt with the dream of gold mining.

The Kingdom of Egypt, recorded in the Old Testament of the Bible, is a mysterious place and a land of wealth in the minds of countless Europeans. Even Christians do not object to studying Egyptian culture. The reason is that they hope to be able to study the inscriptions of ancient Egyptian artifacts. Provides independent proof of events recorded in the Bible.

The Egyptian Ancient Museum is a by-product of Napoleon's invasion of Egypt in the late 18th century. As the commander of the expeditionary force at that time, Napoleon led a large number of scholars around him and made a very important contribution to the study of Egyptian culture. Napoleon seemed to be trying to imitate Alexander the Great and Caesar in conquering the East, but the by-product was that ancient civilizations that had been sleeping in the desert for thousands of years Cultural relics and historic sites were rediscovered.

The Egyptian Museum is famous in Cairo. It was established after Napoleon's expedition to Egypt. For Europeans, it is the first choice for foreign tourists to learn about Egyptian culture.

"O'Connor, does that city of the dead, Hamna Tower, really exist?" Varon stood in front of the Egyptian Museum of Ancient Antiquities and asked the man next to him.

"Of course it is true. What I said is absolutely true. I swear in the name of God. It was because of the belief in the existence of Hamna Tower that my troops and I disobeyed orders and crossed half of Libya to come to Egypt. Looking for this legendary city, it’s a pity that all we found was yellow sand and blood, and there was not even a shadow of the treasure.”

The young man O'Connor said with regret on his face, and then looked at the investor next to him, who was said to be the top figure from the British underworld organization.

"Boss, isn't our goal to find the magic spell for the talking statue?" Wa Long's subordinate Ah Fen asked in confusion.

"Ah Fen, this is a good question, and it's a very good question!" Wa Long heard the legend of the treasure, and he was in a good mood and took the initiative to explain, "Our purpose is not to take away the talisman from Jackie Chan's hands, but we are looking for the talisman. What is the purpose? Isn’t it just to exchange the whereabouts of the Golden Rooster King’s lost treasure from the Holy Lord? Since the treasure of Hamna Tower is here, why do we want to go far away from the near side?”

"Yes, the boss is right. We can't defeat Jackie Chan. It's easier to find Hamunata's treasure." Rasu's honest voice made Valon frown. How could he have such idiots? His subordinates couldn't even deal with an archaeologist.

"Well, let me ask you about the Jackie Chan you are talking about, is he very powerful?" O'Connor couldn't help but ask, "I remember when you were discussing him, didn't you tell me that he was just an archaeologist?"

"He's not a very powerful one, he's really a rare one who can bring trouble to our operations." Rasu explained to O'Connor, trying to get this new member to join the team. Friends, don't underestimate Jackie Chan.

How much trouble a mere archaeologist can cause people, O'Connor thought disapprovingly in his heart, and he had big question marks in his heart about the ability of this group of patrons from the UK.

Hamnata, a mysterious city passed down orally by countless Egyptians, is said to be the cemetery of past pharaohs and their sons. The ancient Egyptians believed that death is not the end, and that the world after death is equally important, as long as the immediate corpse is kept intact (made After going through various tedious rituals, they can be resurrected from the dead like Osiris, the god of the underworld.

Since he will be resurrected in the world of the dead, he will maintain his living standards and bring a large amount of gold and daily necessities to the cemetery as burial objects. The richest person in ancient Egypt was the country's ruler Pharaoh, so Pharaoh The funerary objects accumulated over the generations by the pharaoh's sons would be quite a huge amount of treasure.

Searching for the treasures of Hamna Tower in Egypt and digging for gold there are actually just nice words. In fact, such behavior is just tomb robbing. People from all over the world go to Hamna Tower to dig for gold. In fact, very few survivors have returned. Some people believe that Hamna Tower does not exist, but was created by the ancient Egyptians to deceive the ancient Greeks and Romans. Fabricated rumors, some people believe that Hamna Tower does not exist, but that it is cursed. It is impossible for any survivor to enter Hamna Tower, so Hamna Tower is also called the "City of the Dead" .

O'Connor is one of the very few survivors who went to Hamunata and returned successfully. Therefore, for Valon to successfully reach Hamunata, the city of the dead, O'Connor is indispensable.

Of course, in Vallon's mind, O'Connor is not actually the best candidate for treasure hunting. The real expert in treasure hunting is his archenemy Jackie Chan. Although he always calls himself an archaeologist, he is not the best person to hunt for treasure. "Bao Qi Bing" comes, even if Wa Long adds his own men, he is no match for Jackie Chan.

O'Connor looked down upon this group of sponsors who provided sponsorship for his expedition. As a sponsor, Vallon didn't actually trust O'Connor too much. Therefore, it was essential to find someone who knew ancient Egyptian writing, hieroglyphs, and priestly writing. .

Others do not believe that there is any curse or magic in this world, but they cannot tolerate the existence of Valon. He does not believe that the talking statue of the Holy Lord passed down from his family's ancestors, such an unscientific existence, is a huge magic.

In order to avoid taking money if you are lucky and spending it if you are not lucky, you must have the help of professionals to avoid these curses.

Of course, the best way to deal with magic is to use magic to deal with magic. It is said that the "old man" next to Jackie Chan can do magic. When Walon thought about this, he couldn't help but miss his opponent Jackie Chan. He didn't know where he was now. Where is the world? Otherwise, it would be like before, with the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind, Jackie Chan digging for treasure, and they come to enjoy the harvest.

"Go in, we want to invite more professional people." Valon waved his hand, and his men followed him towards the Antiquities Museum.

"It's the gang of bad guys from the Black Hand organization, and Valon is also there. They actually appeared near the museum. I want to follow them. Wherever they are, Uncle Long must be there too. Wherever Uncle Long is, they will also come and cause trouble. Therefore, if you follow Wa Long and the others, Uncle Long will also appear."

A little Chinese girl in red clothes opened her mouth wide and looked at the Walong group entering the museum and said in surprise, and she quickly had an idea in her head.

Evelin was holding a book and was about to code the book when she suddenly sneezed and didn't understand what happened.

How could I catch a cold for no reason in such dry weather?

How strange.
