I weave my destiny in parallel time and space

It was an endless plain with occasional rolling hills, covered with golden reeds. The reed flowers were as fluffy as cotton.

The sun in the distance hangs high in the sky, making this reed field shine as bright as gold, and the beauty is breathtaking.

The wind whispers in the ears, the skylark curls in the sky, there is no unnecessary noise, and looking at them seems to wash away the dust in the soul.

In this reed field, there were some statues of gods standing on the land. He saw some people wearing white robes walking in the reed field. Their appearance was very similar to the Egyptians in Cairo, but the difference was that they There were happy smiles on their faces.

The elderly parents were laughing and sitting under the reeds, and the children were playing. Everything was so happy, like a dream.

"This should be Lu Weiyuan, the "afterlife" in Egyptian legend, right?"

At this time, a familiar voice came to his ears. He turned his head sharply and saw Tony and Xia appearing beside him at some point.

There was a little joy on his face, "Mr. Stark."

Although he was not afraid of death, he still felt uneasy when he suddenly came to a strange place.

Char has previously set a coordinate on Galante's body. As long as his soul can reach here, he can reach the final destination through magic.

This is also the reason why Galante must enter the underground palace.

"You did a good job." Stark said, "I'm a little surprised that you agreed so easily."

"I've already died once." Galante smiled. "If you don't take some risks in the remaining time, how can you see the scenery that ordinary people can't see."

"Very good condition." Xia Ya's eyes flickered, "I hope you will still be like this fifty years from now..."

Tony looked at all this in a daze, "It's such a beautiful place, completely different from the Egypt I had in mind."

"The biggest stereotype of the ancient Egyptians established by Hollywood is that they worshiped death and evil."

Xia Ya said quietly,

“Although their death takes up a lot of space, they do not worship death, on the contrary, they love life.

If you understand their civilization, you will find that their inscriptions call passers-by "all those who love life" in a formula calling for the living.

There is no word "animal" in their ancient Egyptian language, because they believe that animals also have souls and that all things are equal.

This can be seen from the fact that many of their gods have animal heads.

For them, death is not some kind of glory and shame, nor is it the end. It is just a transit point in life. The purpose of accepting death is not to worship death, but for eternal life.

In order to embrace the lost family members again in the reed field, to raise glasses and sing with friends again in the reed field, to pet the favorite dog again in the reed field.

Reed Plain is not hell, it is the "afterlife", it is an extension of home, it is the smile of parents, it is the whisper of husband and wife, it is the small piece of land in front of the door, it is the long strip behind the house. The river is also the date tree beside the river.

Cherish every minute and second of living, face death calmly, and life will continue.

The sun also rises as usual”

It was just like what Char had said to Alicia in the hot spring pool when Hart was rebelling against the Western French Empire.

The afterlife is a beautiful yearning derived from people's ultimate fear of death.

It is a romance unique to human civilization, and it is also proof that humans have once again challenged the invincible.

Like the Chinese civilization, it was a prosperous farming civilization with a long history and a large territory. It was born in a warm and relatively rich place, and it was difficult to be particularly cruel and dark.

What Hollywood did to the Egyptian civilization was also done to the Chinese civilization. Fu Manchu is a classic example.

They also exaggerated the Chinese civilization into a rigid, ancient, cruel and evil civilization.

For them, whether it was Egypt, Aztec, Inca or China.

If the enemy is a group of people who love life, home and peace, then the explorers in these movies are complete villains, and no one likes to watch such villains.

If the impression of the Egyptians was really good, then what is written in the Bible would be completely untenable logically.

This is their purpose.

Char had watched a movie called The Mummy before, and the most impressive thing was that the Egyptians in it used a scarab to execute Immorton.

What is a scarab?

Its scientific name is the dung beetle, but in China, people call it the dung beetle.

People have tried their best to make their recipes look as harmless as possible, but these Angsa people have no choice but to accuse them of cannibalism.

The group of monsters with human faces and bird bodies outside are called Ba.

The ancient Egyptians divided people into two parts: Ka and Ba: Ka means "double" and represents the human body; Ba is a human-headed harpy, representing the immortal soul.

The reason why the Egyptians made mummies was because they believed that after 3000 years, the two parts of the deceased would be reunited and given new life, entering the reed fields.

Under normal circumstances, humans cannot see Tomoe. It will only fly down from the sky when a person is about to die.

After hovering in the sky, Ba will fly down to the dying person, penetrate deeply into the soul of the deceased at the moment of death, and then fly to the sky with the soul.

Others say that Ba is actually formed by the transformation of the souls of the dead. Therefore there are equal numbers of tomes hidden in the sky.

Tomoe's range of activities is the sky. But he occasionally flies into the bodies and mummies where he once lived.

Of course, even if Tomoe returns, the mummy will not be resurrected. But for Tomoe, returning to the mummy is a good way to take a break.

In other words, the tomes staying in the underground palace are all souls who have lost their bodies.

Even if three thousand years pass, they will no longer be able to go to the reed fields.

This is why Char said these birds are the sins of these Europeans.

Tony watched all this quietly. As a person who grew up in the United States and often watched Hollywood movies, this was the first time he had heard such an interpretation.

He was silent for a moment and sighed.

"The United States is no longer the country it used to be."

He looked around and said, "Perhaps the reason why their deaths occupy a large part of their records is because their culture is broken.

Most of the main ways people know about them come from the murals in tombs, and the murals in tombs are naturally related to death. "

Xia Ya nodded, "That should be the reason."

He looked at the reed field and sighed.

“It’s a pity that this place won’t last long.”
