  A burst of vibration, albeit less intense, came once more.

  A mighty bull cast in copper was affected by the vibration and slid abruptly. Its four hooves rubbed against the floor and made a harsh grating sound. The horns on its head reflected the light.

  If a person got poked by these horns, they would inevitably bleed. Even if they only got hit by the bull’s head, it was likely to leave a fracture.

  Zhang Zian was so scared that he jumped aside and hid behind a bronze statue of a sphinx.

  The copper bull slammed into the stone wall. Both got damaged in the process. A corner was chipped off, and the bull lost a horn.

  This was way too dangerous! He was sweating profusely, and he took the opportunity to wipe his sweat on the sphinx.

  This sphinx was not in the squatting posture. Unlike the one found in front of the Great Pyramid, it stood on four feet. With its more slender body and beautiful face, it depicted a woman plus a lioness, with a vulture-and-cobra combination on the crown.

  Some wooden boxes had also been opened by the vibration. Robes, short skirts, flails, short sticks, ivory plates, anti-corroded cattle tails, and more fell out of the boxes. These were all of the symbols of royal power.

  There were jewels everywhere on the floor. Stepping on one guaranteed a slip. Then a moving statue or stone could hit you and crush you. The jeweled tomb had become a dangerous place.

  Zhang Zian used the stone statues and walls for support. He then ran down the corridor and tried to seek refuge in the tomb of the king.

  He still had a lot of self-control. He didn’t bend over to grab the jewels. First of all, he did not have a free hand to do it. Second, the situation was very unsafe. What if a certain copper bull’s horn poked his anus?

  He was too young to go around with an exterior urine bag. Even a golden urine bag would not be worth it!

  The light in the tomb was not strong. The light sticks swayed and flickered. One had to pay attention or one could easily find themselves in a dangerous position.

  Suddenly, a black shadow appeared over his head. Zhang Zian subconsciously wanted to hide, but he took a closer look. It turned out to be Galaxy.

  “Galaxy, did you see Fina?” he asked quickly.

  “Meow! Fina went to the tomb of the king.” Galaxy pointed back with his claws.

  “Well then, go out first. It is very dangerous here. Famous and the rest are waiting by the car. I will meet you after I find Fina!” Zhang Zian said in a hurry.

  “Meow! Let’s go together!” Galaxy had obviously come from the tomb of the king. Now, he was heading back once more.

  Besides, they were merely a few steps away from it. Zhang Zian said nothing more. Instead of wasting time talking, it would be better to focus on finding Fina. Fast.

  He and Galaxy passed through the big corridor one after the other. They stepped over all kinds of burial objects. They ran to the entrance of the tomb of the king. There, they spotted her. Fina. Yet she stood there, a suspicious look on her face.

  Zhang Zian asked, “Who are you?”


  The gray-faced Fina looked very different from her usual bright and beautiful self. It was as if she had been transformed from a princess into a village dweller. Her golden coat had been dyed gray by the smoke. Without observing her size and her eyes, he’d almost mistakenly thought that it was Vladimir, whom he’d met earlier……

  Fina was silent. Seeing that she had no intention of speaking and would probably use her claws instead, Zhang Zian quickly changed the topic. “Sorry, the light is not good. I just didn’t recognize you!”


  “.……Why did you come?” Fina reluctantly lowered her paws.

  Zhang Zian said adamantly, “Why do you still ask? You didn’t come back, so of course I had to come and find you! This place can’t hold any longer! Let’s leave together!”


  Fina looked in the direction he’d come from and asked a strange question. “When you came over, did you see someone running?”


  If there was a secret passage or secret room in this pyramid, it certainly was not here. Only a large corridor led to the king’s tomb.

  Zhang Zian was stunned. Thinking that it might have been Peter Lee or his team, he replied, “No, Peter Lee and the rest left already. One of them fell into the cracks in the ground and probably did not survive……”


  “What I want to ask is, was there a young girl running past you?” Fina interrupted him.

  “Young girl?” Zhang Zian was spooked! He knew he should have brought Vladimir along with him to fend off ghosts. Was this pyramid haunted? Why would there be a young girl? Images of the various horror games he’d played suddenly came to mind.

  Speaking of which, where had Vladimir gone? He hadn’t gone into the pyramid, and looking for him was more troublesome than looking for Fina.

  “I didn’t see anything.” He shook his head.

  “Oh, really?” Fina was suspicious of his words. “Might your eyesight be just that poor?”


  “How would that be possible?” He felt insulted. There was clearly only one passageway. If someone passed him, wouldn’t he have seen them?

  “Fine.” Fina seemed not to care about questioning him further. “Let’s go.”


  Huh? Zhang Zian had prepared a lot of persuasive words on the way in. He hadn’t expected her to agree to leave so easily. It made him feel as if he’d come here in vain.

  “Wait a minute. I still want to look for something.” Fina suddenly seemed to be reminded of something and returned to the tomb of the king.

  Zhang Zian followed, crawling into the tomb. Since he was here, he might as well take a look.

  However, he was somewhat disappointed. There was less jewelry here compared to the outside, and it was mainly made of large pieces. There was a gold chair, a gold-plated box, large numbers of bowls, plates, cans, etc. Basically, they were all daily necessities. In terms of value, they might lose to what he saw outside.

  Fina rummaged through the cabinet but couldn’t seem to find what she was looking for. She threw the jewelry onto the floor, making Zhang Zian’s heart ache.

  “What are you looking for? Let’s go! There is no more time!” he urged. “Would you like me to help you find it?”


  Fina had rummaged through the entire cabinet but couldn’t find what she was looking for.

  “My amulet is the Wajit amulet with the Eye of Horus—the one on the neck of the cat god statue.” She had glanced around the entire room. Only the cabinet was a possible place to hide the amulet.

  “If you can’t find it, forget it. We really don’t have time. Your life is important. Everything else is secondary!” Zhang Zian said. “If you really want to wear one, go to Pinduoduo and buy an imitation. It might even work better than the real one!”


  It is not an easy task to open the stone sarcophagus. It’s cover is heavy. It will take a skilled man with a piece of metal handle to lift it…… Besides, Fina does not want to open it. If she sees a mummy wearing a golden mask, whatever hopes that she might have would have been dashed.

  “Forget it.” She sighed. “Go.”


  “Galaxy, let’s go,” Zhang Zian replied.

  Fina cast a final glance at the tomb of the king, etched the image of the tomb in her mind, and reluctantly followed Zhang Zian out the stone door.
