human journey

Chapter 294
"The above said that the cruel and bloodthirsty tyrant Khufu was sleeping in the coffin. With the help of the gods, his son defeated him and sealed it here. It must not be opened forever, otherwise it will bring destruction to the world!"

said one of the staff.

"It's really Khufu here. Why was he killed by his son and locked up? If you kill him, you can kill him. Why did you bury him generously. His son's pyramid is still next to him. What happened?"

Da Zhuang asked curiously.

"Maybe because of tradition and respect, even if Khufu was overthrown, it was his son who overthrew him after all. For a reasonable inheritance, Khufu must be allowed to retain the dignity that a pharaoh should have after his death.

So we didn't know this story in history, and thought it was a normal inheritance.But he still carved things on the sarcophagus, probably to tell God. "

A translator analyzed.

There is only so much content on the sarcophagus, but after Lu Yu finishes investigating, he will know the truth.After a long time, Lu Yu finally finished his investigation. He also heard the staff's translation, showed a strange expression, and began to talk about what he had discovered.

It turned out that not long before Khufu was born, a great flood suddenly broke out in the world. The water level of the Nile River soared, and the seawater of the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea also flooded into the land, flooding a large number of farmlands and houses. The people survived, and the third dynasty of ancient country A directly perished as a result.

At this time, the whole world is like this, the number of human beings is greatly reduced, the surviving human beings have no fixed source of food, large areas of land are flooded, the food available is greatly reduced, and they have to compete with ferocious beasts for food, or directly become beasts. food.

The great flood will continue for a long time, and this desperate situation will wipe out the remaining human beings. The people of ancient country A are in danger and are in danger of extinction at any time. The ancestors opened the door to the awakening of the soul.

Khufu's father, Sneferu, is one of the awakened, and he is also the most powerful awakened in country A.He was originally a commoner, but in the troubled times, he relied on his own mind and strength to lead the people of ancient country A to overcome many difficulties and persisted until the flood receded.

He also married Hetfris, and Hetfrise's father was the last pharaoh of the third dynasty of ancient country A, so Sneferu's status became orthodox, and he could lead everyone justifiably.

Later, the fourth dynasty of ancient country A was established on the banks of the Nile River. He was not young when he became pharaoh. After ruling for 24 years, the whole dynasty prospered.The population has recovered a lot, much more than before the great flood. Because of the help of a large number of awakened people, the production capacity and survivability of the people have increased unprecedentedly, and the survival rate of newborns has naturally increased a lot.

As a powerful awakener with physical abilities, Sneferu, even in the age when medical conditions were poor, even if he was five or sixty years old, was definitely a long lifespan at that time, but he could live at least three to forty years.

But Sneferu seemed tired of being pharaoh, he passed the position to his only son who is also an awakened one, Khufu, and went to travel around the world by himself.

Several years later, Sneferu came back, and upon his return, he asked Khufu to summon the awakened people and civilian husbands to help him build the pyramid, without saying what it was for.It is generally speculated that it is a mausoleum, because there were already stepped pyramids stacked up layer by layer.But the pyramid he asked to build was incomparable to the previous ones in terms of size, material, and precision, and it was not the same thing at all.

And three were built in a row, which still exist now, namely the Zigzag Pyramid, the Red Pyramid, and the Meidum Pyramid.

The first one built was the Meidum Pyramid. The use of megalithic structures is a symbolic feature of the transition from the step pyramid to the "true" pyramid. It became the first pyramid in the true sense of the ancient country A.

Sneferu spent a lot of manpower and material resources to build it, which seems to be for some purpose, but obviously the first pyramid did not meet his requirements, so he built the second and third, although there are many improvements , but still not satisfied.

Until the construction of the Khufu Pyramid, this time Sneferu seemed to be full of confidence and mobilized the power of the whole country to build it?Especially the awakened ones, almost all of them came to help with the construction. With the help of ordinary craftsmen, it is almost impossible to build such a building, neither the progress nor the accuracy can meet the requirements.

But the construction of the first three pyramids took decades, Sneferu was on the verge of death, and the Khufu Pyramid was obviously not built well in his lifetime, so he told Khufu the secret of the pyramid .

Sneferu felt that he was getting old, so he passed on the throne to Khufu, and took a few awakened guards to travel around the world, hoping to find a way to live forever.They went all the way to the east, because they heard that there was a mountain range in the east that connected to the sky, and there might be gods living there, after all, the great flood could not submerge there.

Moreover, the ancient country A was surrounded by deserts or the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea. Crossing the Arabian Peninsula to the east seemed to be the only option.

As a powerful awakened person, he deeply understands the existence of the soul. When he was dying in a certain danger, he also experienced reincarnation and realized the greatness of the ancestor of the soul.

He knows that once the body dies, the soul will inevitably be reincarnated, so he wants to strengthen the body so that the body can break the limit of lifespan and achieve eternal life.

However, in that era, human beings' understanding of life was still superficial. They didn't know that life span was determined by genes, and even if they knew it, they couldn't change it.

If Lu Yu and the others hadn't captured Lin Wei and used it to secrete a transformation fluid to transform themselves, the current biotechnology would not be able to safely and reasonably enhance human genes.

Sneferu and the others traveled all over the world and met many human beings who survived the great flood. Some of them were awakened, and some were even as strong as him.

Among them, humans who received God's warning and awakened used their abilities to build a super ship before the flood came, and brought many survivors and animals for food.

Sneferu was not hostile, and communicated very politely with these awakened ones, hoping to explore ways to live forever or prolong life. For this reason, he did not hesitate to spend a lot of time learning the local language.

But there was nothing to gain. Sneferu and his men continued to go eastward. Fortunately, they were all powerful awakeners with complementary abilities. After many obstacles, they finally came to the Himalayas after a few years.

Looking at the extremely magnificent mountains stretching to the horizon, Sneferu was both happy and worried. He was happy that there were indeed towering mountains here, and maybe there were gods living there, but he was worried that there were too many mountains here. up.

Many mountaintops are covered with thick white snow, which indicates that the temperature is very low. If you look at the white clouds and snowflakes flowing quickly over the mountaintops, you can know that the wind speed is also very strong.Even if they are awakened, without any climbing equipment, the difficulty of climbing up is no less than that of heaven.

It took Sneferu such a long time to come here with great difficulty, and he was not in a hurry. He decided to take a rough look at this large mountain range at the foot of the mountain to see if he found anything. Impossible, and we can only choose some to try to climb.

It took several months to walk around like this. There is no trace of human activities here, and there are not even any animals. It seems like a forbidden land for life.In fact, there were already human beings living on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau at this time, especially the recent flood, which forced many humans who originally lived on the plains to come to the plateau, leaving many to settle here permanently.

It's just that the Himalayas area is too barren and far away from the Central Plains. They haven't come here yet, and even if they come, they won't stay here and can't survive.

In the past few months, Sneferu has also made some discoveries. First, he found the highest peak in this mountain range, which is Mount Everest with a height of 8848 meters.

Thousands of years ago, it was not so high, it was tens of meters shorter, but it was still a daunting height. Sneferu and others did not have the idea of ​​climbing it.

They also found a special mountain, which was also very high and had a strange shape. The upper half of the mountain was in the shape of a regular sand pile, with four triangular faces almost as large, just like the current pyramid.

It is not the highest mountain in this area, but only its snow-covered peak can shine strangely in the sun, which is eye-catching.

According to the current explanation, its four slopes are very flat, and the white snow covered on it can effectively reflect sunlight. From a distance, it looks like it is shining, and the color of the light will also vary with the intensity of the sun. Changing and changing, full of divinity.

Sneferu instinctively felt that this mountain had a kind of magic that attracted him, not only because of its unique appearance, but also because of the hidden power telling him to climb up.

The altitude of this mountain is more than 6000 meters. It is not an easy task to climb up. Sneferu and his men made a lot of preparations and made a lot of tools for climbing, and finally they were able to climb up.

Sneferu searched all sides of the mountain, including the top, to see if he had entered any caves, but he searched the entire mountain for many days and found nothing.

This is a pure rock mountain, and it is almost impossible to enter the mountain without caves. The awakened people in that era did not have as many abilities as they do now, and most of them are physical awakening abilities. After all, they only need to deal with natural disasters and wild beasts.

Digging through the mountain was a project that required a lot of manpower at that time, but it was impossible in high-altitude areas, and there were no people here, so it was a place where birds don't shit.

But Sneferu felt that the perennial snow above blocked the entrance, which prevented him from finding it.But how can we remove the snow, even if we wait until summer, with the altitude of this mountain, the snow on the top of the mountain will not melt.
