Chapter 763 (1/2)
In the middle of the 14th century BC, ancient Egypt once had the most beautiful and huge city in the world, which was called Thebes.
This city is located on the side of the middle reaches of the Nile River. Its grandeur is called the ”capital of 100 gates” by Homer, the great poet of ancient Greece.
Unfortunately, after the twenty-first Dynasty, the rule of the Pharaohs at that time was chaotic, leading to the decline of ancient Egypt.
In 663 BC, the Assyrian army invaded Egypt and directly burned and looted Thebes, resulting in the destruction of Thebes. In 27 BC, an earthquake finally collapsed the Thebes overnight and became a piece of ruins.
The city of Thebes is very close to the valley of the emperor. At first, it chose to build tombs under the valley of the emperor, which was also the head of Pharaoh tutmos I of the 18th dynasty.
Because before that, the probability of the pyramid being stolen as a mausoleum was too great. Even if the Pharaohs ordered people to arrange all kinds of preventive measures to prevent the tomb robbers from sneaking in.
In desperation, the emperor valley construction plan was born.
Thebes ruins.
Once a magnificent capital, there are only broken walls and columns left. Some tourists take photos on the ruins and enjoy the only beauty left in this place.
Jiang Le drove the horse herders provided by abesani through the ruins of Thebes and accelerated all the way to the valley of the emperor.
The deeper into the valley of the emperor, the more sparsely populated. On the mountain walls on both sides of the valley, there are many ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and various patterns.
Anubis with a wolf headed man, tot with a bird headed man, Sobek, the guardian of the Nile, the Pharaoh with a black cat on his knee, and the woman with a bottle.
The whole Canyon is filled with a strong ancient Egyptian wind, and Jiang Le can occasionally see dilapidated temples and huge sacred pillars.
At the end of emperor Valley, two huge stone statues up to 45 meters high were reflected in Jiang Le's eyes.
The stone statue on the left is anubis holding a sickle, while on the right is Sobek with a crocodile head.
Between the two Colossus, there is a gate that has been firmly blocked by a large number of stones.
Although you know that the two stone statues are fake, you can still feel a sense of oppression coming face to face.
It seems that as long as you dare to approach a certain distance again, the statue will live on the spot and attack any enemy who dares to approach.
The gate that could have entered the tombs of the Imperial Valley had been blocked by rubble and could not be entered at all.
However, Alberto Sonny has told Jiang Le the location of the channel they cooperated with baimonde company last time. This time, he can enter the Imperial Valley through that channel.
