"The boatman is the seventh poisonous scorpion?" Yu Xiaojie looked back at the boatman's egret head, and couldn't help being curious: "Where did his head come from?"

Yang Mian: "Stolen or cheated? It's similar to a lie, deceiving players and souls. It may also be one of the assessments of the soul, but it feels full of malice."

At this time, the boatman asked, "Which one is in my real name?"

Tang quickly answered: "serqet!"

Another wave of Tantric players also rushed to answer quickly, almost giving the answer in the same second as Tang.

They all stared at the boatman, waiting for him to speak.

Boatman: "Yes, all the answers are correct. But—" He raised his voice: "He was a second late!"

The boatman suddenly let go of his hand at the helm and pointed directly at Tang Ze: "Slow down a second, you lose."

Tang Ze's face changed drastically. The next moment, the boat standing under his feet suddenly stopped and slowly sank into the quicksand, while six poisonous scorpions, twice as big as before, crawled out of the yellow sand, covering the sun, with their poisonous pincers and tail needles. attack them separately.

Yang Mian grabbed the sail rope and quickly climbed to the mast, then jumped onto the back of the poisonous scorpion who was chasing her, looked up and saw a scar on the neck of the poisonous scorpion.

Presumably this is the poisonous scorpion whose neck was cut off by her just now, and now he took the opportunity to catch her for revenge.

"Unfortunately, if I can cut off your head, I can cut you into pieces."

There was a strong wind blowing from behind, Yang Mian rolled sideways on the back of the poisonous scorpion, avoiding the stinging tail, and inserted the long knife into the body of the poisonous scorpion to stabilize his body.

The poisonous scorpion stings and howls in pain, the person turns back and stares at Yang Mian resentfully. And its flexible tail whips Yang Mian like a steel whip. Yang Mian hid in a panic at first, but also cut several wounds on the poisonous scorpion.

The more wounds, the more terrifying the scorpion madness.

Yang Mian used his brain to recall the appearance of the poisonous scorpion and the preparations for launching the attack. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, rolled down directly, slipped into the abdomen of the poisonous scorpion, grabbed several legs of the poisonous scorpion and completely hid himself in the abdomen of the poisonous scorpion Down.

The scorpion's tail cannot sting her.

Yang Mian raised the long knife and slashed wantonly, almost cutting off the poisonous scorpion's legs, causing it to fall to the side, but it also gave the tail a weak point to attack her.

Yang Mian let go of the poisonous scorpion's feet and continued to slide in the direction where it fell, and stabbed the poisonous scorpion's feet and tail with a backhand. When it was retracted, the tip of the knife was aimed at the abdomen of the poisonous scorpion, and with a 'poof', it was inserted directly.

The poisonous scorpion screamed suddenly, its huge body struggled and twisted like a bug on a skewer.

It tried to return to the quicksand to recover, but where would Yang Mian give it a chance to grow?

Although it seems that the next round will still be resurrected, the important thing now is to survive the round.

The poisonous scorpion gradually stopped struggling and died on the deck.

Yang Mian crawled out of the poisonous scorpion's abdomen with a long knife in his hand, and when he looked up, he saw that the remaining five poisonous scorpions had been dealt with.

Xie Sanqiu dealt with two poisonous scorpions alone, which was not difficult for him. If he could, he could kill six poisonous scorpions in an instant.

The tricky thing about scorpions is that they grow, getting bigger and more terrifying every time.

When the time was up, the ship continued sailing, and all the dead scorpions were thrown back into the quicksand.

Yang Mian held the knife and aimed the knife at the boatman: "The third hint."

Boatman: "The third reminder - the day and the month, my real name is between the day and the month."

"By the way, I forgot to tell you that the first two rounds of reminders are invalid. They are no longer part of my real name. When you fail to say my real name within the time limit, you will miss the way to the central temple. "

Tang Ze: "Time limit? Isn't it after three reminders?"

Boatman: "Did I say that? I said it was the last, but I didn't say it was the last of the three hints. In fact, you only have two chances. The third hint is to give you a chance to do it all over again. I am merciful enough." , did not immediately drive you off my boat."

"You guys, shouldn't you be thanking me?"

"Just now - have you been to the Central Shrine?!"

Boatman: "Yes, it passed before your eyes. It's a pity you didn't notice it."

In fact, except for the boatman to determine the course and destination, no one else can see the central temple at all.

The players were aggrieved, but there was nothing they could do.

The Tantric players of the other team were outraged and showed obvious murderous looks at the boatman, and the leader of the Tantric practitioners stopped them. Tang calmed down: "The boatman has been lying."

"In the first two rounds of reminders, he didn't lie, but he was vague." Su Jiang analyzed: "If his egret head is not real, then his real name should not include the name of the god of wisdom Thoth. Just now His hint contains the Scorpion Goddess, who is the seventh stinging scorpion, and should bear the name of Serket."

"But now that the two hints are invalid, it means that our guess is completely negated. In other words, the boatman may not be the seventh scorpion, or he may not be the race of the God of Wisdom, but he may be both." Everyone was quiet. Listen to Su Jiang's analysis, and then follow his narrative to trigger thinking.

"He didn't lie. His real name is both Serket, the goddess of scorpions, and Thoth, the god of wisdom. At the same time, he is neither. What is the role of the boatman in the desert river? Extradition of souls to the central temple for judgment."

"Why did the boatman become a boatman? He was extradited in the Desert River, voluntarily or was he imprisoned? Although he

Although it is well hidden, it intends to kill the player many times in its behavior. He didn't hide his killing intent well when he didn't know the identity of the player. In other words, he doesn't intend to let it go, whether it's a player or an ordinary soul. "

Xie Sanqiu said at this time: "Because he committed a crime."

He was the first to think about why a boatman became a boatman. A boatman on the Desert River cannot leave his boat. Once the boat starts sailing, he cannot let go of the rudder in his hand.

"The boatman was imprisoned in the Desert River. Remember what he said at the beginning? We have two ways to reach the central shrine, one is to call out the boatman's real name, and the other is to guess the crimes committed by the boatman. He was imprisoned in the Desert River as a boatman." Xie Sanqiu guessed.

"So, what is his crime?"

"You need to know which god in Egyptian mythology the boatman corresponds to in order to guess his crime."

Su Jiang: "However, Egyptian mythology is quite special. It does not have a god who distinguishes between good and evil. Egyptian gods have both good and evil sides, and the theocracy is supreme. There are no descriptions of punishments and crimes against the gods."

The Egyptian gods have a high status, and there are no descriptions of crimes against the gods.

In mythology, the cat goddess who was ordered by God Ra to kill half of Egypt's humans was only replaced by cruelty and killing, and she was still the goddess of Egyptian beliefs afterwards.

Therefore, the emergence of a god who was convicted and punished is simply inconceivable.

"Except for the enemies of the sun god Ra." Su Jiang added.

Yang Mian was surprised: "The sun god Ra is the god of creation, and the god of creation also has enemies?"

Xie Sanqiu: "Because the sun god Ra is not the oldest god. Before he was born, there were the god of the great flood and the goddess of fate. In the later Egyptian mythological records, the goddess of fate had seen the creation of the world and the god of creation several times. But let's not discuss them now, let's talk about the enemy of the sun god Ra, the big snake Apepu."

"The sun god Ra was born in the great flood, representing the order and system of the world, so he created the world and the universe. The serpent Apepu was born in the abyss, representing disorder and chaos, and it would destroy the creation of the sun god Ra. orderly world."

Xie Sanqiu pointed to the sun hanging high in the sky and said: "When the sun sets and the moon rises, the sun god pulls the sun chariot out of the sky. When the moon sets and the sun rises, the sun god pulls the sun chariot out from the ground and walks through the seven gates. Pu is hidden in the seventh gate, in the darkness when the sun and the moon alternate."

"Therefore, the existence between the sun and the moon is the big snake Apepu. Apepu turned into a big snake to fight against the God of Ra, but in fact it has no definite entity. It is just because in the prophecy, the old enemy of the God of Ra is a poisonous snake. Apep can be the race of any god, but no god can be him. He can be the race of the god of wisdom, or he can be the seventh poisonous scorpion given to Isis by the scorpion goddess."

"In the story we just mentioned about the seven scorpions and the goddess Isis, there is a follow-up. The seventh scorpion stung the child of the rich mistress, and Isis saved the child. Later, she exhausted her powers and gave birth to Horus, the seventh poisonous scorpion thought that Horus would hurt Isis, so it stung Horus. Isis had no divine power and could not save Horus. At this time, the god Ra happened to see this scene and saved Horus. "

Tang Ze: "When he was the seventh poisonous scorpion of the goddess Serket, the crime committed by the boatman was reckless and indiscriminate killing. Now it is the serpent Apepu, and the crime is to destroy the orderly world. But it also has The ethnic identity of the God of Wisdom, so it still needs to maintain the task of escorting the undead in the desert river. Therefore, it did not lie."

Yes, the boatman didn't lie from beginning to end, he was telling the truth.

It's just that the language is vague and there is suspicion of intentional misleading.

Yu Xiaojie raised his hand and whispered his childish doubts: "Then here comes the question, as an ancient god who was born at the same time as Ra and is the only enemy. Why was Apepu trapped in the Desert River in the Kingdom of Styx? Even the sun God can't do anything to it, who can trap it?"

"..."

That's a good question.

..

After careful consideration, Gao Yan decided to go to the central temple.

Song Beiliu: "Are you sure? There are no other players exploring the way. Are you afraid that you will accidentally die inside? If you fail the trial process, you will be eaten by monsters."

Gao Yan: "Brother Chu came to the Kingdom of the Styx for me, but he cannot appear in front of the God of the Underworld, which means he cannot snatch the Book of the Dead with his own hands."

Song Beiliu: "So you still want to grab it yourself?"

Gao Yan: "Otherwise?"

Song Beiliu grabbed his hair and compromised irritably: "Okay, I know it's either the Book of the Dead or Yangzhi Ganlu. All right, I'll go with you."

Gao Yan: "I don't know if you have thought about it carefully."

"What's up?"

"The news of 'God Chu's death' spread throughout the Styx Kingdom was obviously released by Brother Chu on purpose. Have you never thought about Brother Chu's purpose for doing this?"

"Cheat the players, relax the vigilance of the gods? You are not stupid, are you really dead, and you can still spread the word?"

"It's because it spread that Brother Chu is dead."

"ha?"

"Brother Chu is really dead." Gao Yan stared at Song Beiliu: "Why did the Styx Kingdom, which was closed for ten years, open? Because Brother Chu used the second volume of the Book of the Dead as a bargaining chip. He was resurrected because of the Book of the Dead, so he lost his soul." What will happen to him in the book?"

Song Beiliu: "Death."

"Yes, death. So the person who enters the Styx Kingdom will become Asuro, a six-year-old child. I don't know what method Brother Chu used, but his physical body in reality must have died."

Gao Yan: "I can't wait any longer. Song Beiliu, as long as

I got the complete two volumes of the Book of the Dead, and I will revive you immediately, and the merits are optional. "

Song Beiliu looked at Gao Yan deeply, and then sighed: "That's not okay, we still have to unravel the cause and effect between each other. By the way, did you mention God Chu's purpose just now?"

"Lead out his former enemies."

"who?"

Gao Yan didn't speak, because Song Beiliu had already reacted, and his face turned cold instantly: "That's right, I even forgot that we have a common enemy. He will indeed appear in the Kingdom of Styx, for the Book of the Dead."

Both have a common enemy and a common purpose, and the two parties have nothing to say, so they go directly to the central temple.

Juli Hualing had always listened to Song Beiliu's words, so she didn't object, and followed them to walk the way of God.

Stepping into the way of God and walking for a while, the three of them found that the scene in front of them suddenly turned into a dark atrium, with large pillars about 20 meters high at both ends of the atrium. Behind the pillar is the throne, on which a huge statue of the god is carved.

There are forty-two statues on both sides, and their empty eyes are all staring at the three people who broke in.

Gao Yan: "Forty-two trial gods? Shall we go directly to the central temple?"

As soon as I spoke, I realized that there was a huge echo, and the atrium was really too spacious.

The soul body enters the temple of Hades, and Osiris, the god of the underworld, sits on the throne, with a balance in the middle, one end of which is the feather of truth, and the other end is the soul body.

Anubis is weighing, the god of wisdom is recording, the goddess of truth is watching, and forty-two gods are judging the soul and body.

The scene in front of me is very similar to the description in the myth.

Song Beiliu: "It shouldn't be that fast."

They continued to move forward and saw the 'god' sitting on the throne in the atrium - the familiar sphinx.

Sphinx originated from ancient Egyptian mythology. They claim to be smart and like to guess riddles. If humans guess the answer, it will choose to die. Instead, he would kill humans.

There is a classic story in which the Sphinx came up with a puzzle. The title is: There is an animal that walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs at night. The more legs, the more vulnerable.

The answer is people.

The result was that the sphinx jumped off a cliff to his death.

Thus, a Sphinx effect is formed, that is, the "Sphinx mystery".

Song Beiliu: "The first door of the Central Temple, the Sphinx."

The sphinx of the Atrium Throne is sleeping, and when someone speaks in its ear, it will open its eyes and ask questions—it opened its eyes, green eyes, unexpectedly gentle and humble instead of arrogant.

The Sphinx stared at the players in the atrium, and it asked, "What is your purpose?"

Gao Yan: "The central temple, the judgment of the gods."

The Sphinx told them: "You need to pass me first, then hide from the serpent Apep in the seventh heaven, in the darkness where the sun and the moon communicate, then accept the just trial in the two halls of facts, and finally appear In the trial hall, the underworld god, eight main gods and forty-two gods will judge together."

Gao Yan: "Thank you."

Sphinx: "If you insist on passing by me, you need to solve the mystery of the Sphinx." Gao Yan, Song Beiliu, and Juli Hualing agreed at the same time, and as soon as they opened their mouths to answer, their figures disappeared immediately. Courtyard.

The three were separated and appeared in different eras. They can only come back after solving the mystery of the Sphinx.
