I weave my destiny in parallel time and space
Chapter 207 Small Underworld
According to Char's information in another world, the name of the person who actually entered the Pyramid of Khufu was recorded as Caliph Mamun.
But when he dug in, the contents were gone.
The designers of the pyramid believed that in order for tomb robbers to break through the defenses, they had to correctly find the entrance to the huge pyramid.
Even if they manage to find the entrance, the slope of the descent and the tomb stones will cause them a headache. The slope of the descent channel of Khufu's Pyramid is 26°. At this slope, it will be very difficult to dig or pass.
The slope of the large escalators in shopping malls now does not exceed 30°. They move directly in the descending channel that is 0.96 meters high and 1.04 meters wide without relying on the escalator. The difficulty is roughly equivalent to walking on the Jackie Chan channel of the escalator while leaning on the waist.
Even if they were brave enough to dig holes while building ladders, the total length of the 102-meter-long descending tunnel would be enough for them to dig for a long time. You must know that the tunnel in the Pyramid of Menkaure that was blown up for two months was less than 2 meters long.
What's more, digging around in such a cramped environment will definitely make the tomb robbers ignore the top of the head. However, behind a certain stone above the head that looks the same as other stones is the real tomb passage.
Even if the tomb robbers unfortunately discover this secret, three huge granite blocks will make them helpless.
Even if they break through the granite bolts, the existence of the queen's tomb as a disguise is enough to make them doubt their life.
If the tomb robbers still don't give up and are sure that there is a tomb besides the queen's tomb, then how do they know which wall it will be hidden behind?
The entire queen's tomb plus the large corridor, the huge space would make it difficult for them to start.
Even if the tomb robbers dug around and hit the king's tomb from the side, they would have to face the unimaginable thickness of granite. The king's tomb has been airtightly surrounded by granite, and the only weak point is the entrance.
The three granite gates there are thinner than the walls of the tomb, but they have been perfectly hidden within the walls of the large corridor.
Collapse caused by blind excavation will also become the last line of defense to protect the tomb!
For the pyramid designer who lived in the Bronze Age, such anti-theft measures could prevent almost all tomb-robbing methods and tools he could think of.
However, judging from the robbery cave, this passage avoided the descending passage. After advancing to the approximate location of the bolt stone, it decisively headed east, penetrated the west wall of the ascending passage, and successfully entered the upper space of the pyramid.
From Char's perspective, such a burglary hole directly invalidated all anti-theft measures outside the entrance to the king's tomb.
The only ones that the tomb robbers could attack from the front were the three gates in front of the King's Tomb. However, the weak point of the King's Tomb was the entrance, so frontal breakthrough was the most correct method.
This is obviously a hole that can only be dug by someone who has a perfect knowledge of the structure of the pyramid.
Pharaoh Khufu reigned from about 2589 BC to 2566 BC, and the Pyramid of Khufu was built during this period.
The structure of this pyramid is obviously unlikely to be known to people more than 3300 years later.
So it was probably that the pyramid was excavated not long after it was built, and it was also the descendants of the craftsmen and craftsmen who built it at that time.
Therefore, these pharaohs are still not as smart as the ancestors of China. All the emperors of China will basically kill all the craftsmen when building tombs.
However, the reason why Char turned his attention to this pyramid was not because of the pyramid itself, but what was underneath the pyramid.
Underneath this pyramid, there is an even larger pyramid. The Pyramid of Khufu is only the "spire" part of this pyramid.
This hidden pyramid has extremely complex passages and rooms inside, like a huge geometric complex maze constructed of rooms, passages, and bridges.
If it is said that these pyramids on the ground are worthy of study.
Then there is no doubt that this underground maze cannot be built by humans. It is either an alien or a god.
Who is buried inside?
Xia Ya was a little curious in his heart. He tried to use his clairvoyance to go deeper, but his sight was blocked by something.
It seemed like it no longer belonged to this world.
Speaking of which, there is a familiar and special atmosphere permeating the entire tomb chamber.
That is the breath of Hades.
When Char was chatting with Sebastian a few nights ago, he talked about Egyptian mythology. A large part of Egyptian mythology is related to death, and their afterlife is the basis of Egyptian belief.
According to him, the Hades of all myths are actually located on a piece of land, collectively called "Hades".
It was an alien space that was so vast that it was almost boundless.
There is a large river that runs through the entire space. When the river flows through Tartarus, it is called the River Styx, and when it flows through the underworld, it is called the River of Forgetfulness.
So the auras of Hades are all very similar.
It seemed that because of this aura, Xia saw many ghosts and strange things inside the pyramid.
In a sense, this underground pyramid has become a small Hades, a gathering place for certain underworld things.
There seem to be many mechanisms inside the pyramid.
Char stared at the mural in one of the places.
The pharaohs of Egypt were kings of the world when they were alive, and they were still the rulers of the underworld after their death.
The religious view of the Egyptians is that they believe that the soul can still be resurrected after death.
Of course, this resurrection does not refer to the resurrection in the human world. Many people understand it as the resurrection of the mummy, but in fact it is not, but the resurrection in the afterlife, that is, the reed field.
However, the Egyptians believed that if the body rotted in this world, it would not be resurrected in the next life.
Therefore, the Egyptians made corpses into "mummies" and preserved them properly, and attached great importance to the making of coffins and the construction of tombs in order to pray for resurrection.
Therefore, the Egyptians attached great importance to protecting the bodies of the pharaohs and slave owners and built tombs at all costs. This is the origin of the world-famous Egyptian pyramids.
But if the afterlife really existed, these pharaohs probably would never have thought until their death that a group of Europeans would be so interested in their corpses in this world.
The mural depicts the pharaohs' journey to the afterlife in Ra's ship. The sky goddess, painted with stars, bends over the reclining earth god.
Between them, the winged sun god is driving a divine boat to the underworld, and there are many evil spirits trying to stop him on the way.
It also depicts Anubis weighing his heart.
However, the identity of the owner of the tomb is not revealed in this mural.
But in fact, even if there is information, Char can't understand it. Although he has a lot of knowledge, things like ancient Egyptian are still in his knowledge blind spot.
Xia Ya silently lifted the teapot on one side and poured herself a cup of tea. The aroma of tea filled the space with the heat.
The opening of the magic barrier quickly neutralized the temperature here, making it no longer so hot.
The yellow world is in front of him, and further away are the rolling hills, which are also made of pure yellow sand. This is the world of yellow sand, the ocean of yellow sand, the continuous yellow sand is connected to the sky, it is impossible to imagine Nowhere is the end of the sand.
If the heat attribute of the desert is removed, the endless sandy soil will really have an exotic feel, especially the pyramids with cultural atmosphere dotted among them.
At this time, the door on one side slowly opened, and Tony walked out. Char had informed him when the castle arrived in Egypt. After all, Tony mainly studied alchemy, so this matter had something to do with him.
Tony stood beside Char, looking at the desert with a slightly absentminded look, and then he sighed, "I once wandered in the desert for a while and almost died there."
"How come you seem to have this experience everywhere."
Alicia also walked out of the room, holding a plate with some snacks in her hand.
He had also told them before about his experiences wandering around the universe.
"I'm a superhero." Tony raised his eyebrows. "The experience of a superhero is always bumpy."
Alicia said nothing and just put the plate on the table.
Tony looked at Xia, "Have you found any clues here?"
Xia Ya's eyes flashed, "I did find something."
