God's Descend

At the edge of the desert, a wolf-like black beast put "Atum" on the ground and nuzzled him.It looked around and confirmed that there were no writings on the sand—the "Atum" that was by its side not long ago had disappeared.

The skeleton in the ground suddenly disappeared and turned into a human figure, probably Atum's masterpiece.

Anubis put his ear on his chest, hearing the faint beating of his heart.He seemed to be still dormant, not about to wake up.It thought for a moment, and buried people under the sand—it believed that the desert was full of divine power and could nourish all things.After finishing this series of things, it stretched itself and lay down on the stone beside it, waiting for Atum to wake up.

The survey team was at the epicenter of the earthquake just now, and many people lay down on the ground in panic, holding their heads in their hands.

"What happened?! There was an earthquake?"

"...It seems to have stopped."

The captain got up and patted the sand on his body, looked up and saw the dense dark clouds in the sky, and suddenly had some ominous premonition.He beckoned to call others: "Have the leaders sent from above arrived?"

This discovery is extremely important. For the sake of confidentiality, no one except the captain knows about it.At this moment, the young man just thought it was an ordinary dinosaur fossil. At most, it was a bit older. How could there be living people?He curled his lips: "No, this job is hard and tiring. Those pampered and important people are sent here. They must be unwilling, and they might even show their faces... It would be better if they didn't come."

The captain had been in charge of excavation and surveying in the Northwest area for many years. In the early years, he had dug up groups of ancient corpses and encountered many strange things.He has always been in awe of these things, and kept secret, thinking of the earthquake just now, and the stormy sky, he just wanted to quickly hand over this hot potato.

He had something on his mind, sighed and walked to the side of the deep pit, wanting to see the progress of the excavation of the skeleton, but his face changed drastically and he trembled uncontrollably.

The young man followed his gaze, and his legs were also weak: "Then... what about the fossil?"

Less than one-third of such a huge skeleton was unearthed. How could it suddenly evaporate in an earthquake?

The rain came with several thunderstorms, and the sudden torrential rain drenched them all over.The captain turned around and hurried to the temporary shed. He wanted to report this matter to his superiors.

Anubis didn't know that the Chinese mythical beasts would be "tribulated by thunder".

It took a lot of effort to find the breath of "Atum", and followed his will to help him come to China.I heard that this is Lord Atum's hometown?There is also a desert here, it is very satisfied, if Master Atum wants to stay, it can also stay in this place.

It lay leisurely beside the "master", thinking that he would praise it when he woke up, and wagged its tail happily.

So what if the divine power is taken away and you can't transform into a human form?Lord Atum is so kind and benevolent, he will not use it like Ra.

"Boom—"

The thunder that fell from the sky struck it straight, and just before it passed out, it vaguely saw a dazzling light somewhere in the desert, as if something was about to wake up.

Jiang Yunan and He Gu felt the heavy atmosphere as soon as they got out of the car.The captain of the survey team was in a state of desperation about the keel, so he came out to greet him in person, thinking about how to speak.

He Gu stood behind Jiang Yunan, wearing sunglasses with his hands in his pockets, looking like a bodyguard.The captain didn't pay much attention, just shook hands with Jiang Yunan, and said with a complicated expression: "I'm sorry to trouble you all for nothing, the keel is lost. Look at this..."

Jiang Yunan was stunned for a while, his face didn't fluctuate, but his heartbeat almost stopped: "What did you say you lost it?"

"Keel." Seeing that there was no one else around, the captain lowered his voice and said, "It disappeared suddenly out of thin air, probably related to the earthquake just now...Only Xiao Wu and I saw it. of."

He Gu's expression was hard to describe for a moment. He lowered his head and took out a cigarette to light it. He pressed the lighter a few times before aiming at it. He took a deep breath and let it out with his eyes narrowed.In the smog, he looked a little sorry.

They went to the scene to check and confirmed that there were no clues, so they had to set off to go back.Before leaving, Jiang Yunan seemed to suddenly think of something, and asked casually, "Hey, Captain Cheng, I just saw lightning strike, do you remember which direction it is from?"

Captain Cheng recalled it for a while, and pointed to the northwest: "It's over there."

Jiang Yunan thanked him, and said to the driver as soon as he got in the car, "Go northwest."

He was obviously in a good mood, so that He Gu looked at him for a long time: "...The Tarim is so big, you just walked in a vague direction, and there was no navigation or anything. Can you really find it?"

"How do you know if you don't try?"

This kind of awakening of the ancient great god must have been a big battle, not to mention that he tended to think that the "keel" didn't go too far.

Sure enough, the car drove for half an hour, and there was a trace on the ground in front of it that raised an inch above the ground. The arc stretched far away and could not see the end, it should be in the shape of a ring.

There was an inch of height difference between the ground inside the ring and the outside, like an edge caused by some kind of shock wave squeezing the ground.

The camel thorns that were originally all over the roadside were also bounded by this ring, and the vegetation in the ring was dried up and died on a large scale, as if all the nutrients had been taken away by something.

"I went to southern Africa before, and Namibia also has this kind of strange circle, and there is no grass in the circle." He Gu looked to both sides, "but this is too big."

The driver didn't want to drive further in, and Jiang Yunan couldn't force it, so he and He Gu walked inside on foot.

The sky had already darkened, and before Jiang Yunan came, he brought the magic weapon given by the old Taoist priest.He found a rune, watched it slowly float in mid-air, "pointed" in one direction, and then spontaneously ignited without fire.

They walked in that direction. The temperature difference between day and night in the desert was relatively large. The further they walked, the colder they felt, and they gradually approached the center of the circle.

There seemed to have experienced a fire after the thunder landed there, and the surface of the sand was scorched black.Jiang Yunan's heartbeat was so violent that he had difficulty breathing, so he hurried over nervously.

The surrounding sandy land was unobstructed, and he didn't see any human or dragon figures.It's just that under a rock, there is a black animal lying on its stomach. It is not known whether it is dead or alive.

Worrying about the danger, He Gu stretched out his hand to stop him, approached the thing step by step, and turned it over with his feet.

"It's a jackal." He Gu said, "It looks like it was struck by lightning, but it's still alive." He raised his eyebrows, his expression was a little weird for a moment, "...is this the dragon?"

This is certainly not a candlestick.However, Jiang Yunan couldn't help but bend the corner of his mouth: "Take it back first."

He Gu also knew that the jackal that survived being struck by lightning must not be a mortal thing. He carried the jackal on his shoulder, and when he turned his head, he saw Jiang Yunan looking for something again.

He searched for a long time but found nothing, so he had to leave.Maybe Zhuyin was really nearby, but he couldn't find it.However, it was not a bad trip to capture Anubis.

Special department isolation room.Anubis woke up leisurely, his eyes widened suddenly.

He turned his head stiffly to look outside the bullet-proof glass, and several faces that looked at it with interest slapped them angrily, but there was not even a single crack in the glass.

He saw that annoying Asian professor appearing outside the glass, and knocked on the glass with a smile: "Don't try to run away, this glass has a spell, and the spell is... ah, you don't understand it even if I say it. Can you still talk? "

Anubis stared at him, and finally said after a while: "Bold man, how dare you..."

Before he finished speaking, several small members around him exclaimed "Wow".

"Fuck, this dog can talk!"

Since the establishment of the department, many things have been captured, and there are also semi-intelligent and intelligent creatures, but the one that can speak is the first.This means that they will be able to communicate and communicate on an equal footing.No wonder those members are strange.

Anubis choked: "Stupid human being, I am the great jackal born of carrion and the black mud of the Nile Valley, Anubis."

Jiang Yunan felt that the jackal was a bit of a second child, so he laughed: "Do you know about A Tu..." Before he finished speaking, he realized that the atmosphere was not right.

The members of the department looked at the jackal in the isolation room, then at Jiang Yunan, and took a few steps back slowly to say goodbye.The newly recruited disciple of the exorcising demon master also came to see the excitement, but he still didn't leave for some reason.

The child graduated from the most prestigious institution of higher learning in China, and was tricked by the demon master to become a coolie right after graduation. At this time, he was staring at him with a pair of big round eyes, like a frightened and serious bird. fawn.

"...Jiang, Mr. Jiang, you captured the god of Egypt, do you mean 'above'?" He turned his head back and forth, wondering if this meant that China would tear itself apart from Egypt?

"No." Jiang Yunan said, "I saw it on the road and got it back."

The child's face became even more frightened.Since he entered the department, he has been cautious in his words and deeds, for fear of making any mistakes, and the young man in front of him is so unscrupulous... Could it be that he is the new favorite of some nobles, as some rumors in the department say.

Jiang Yunan felt that the child looked at him differently when he left, and he wanted to ask him to understand, but he was summoned to the meeting room not long after.

It was a conversation that started tensely, went softly, and ended happily.The leader from the National Security Bureau is not low, knowing Jiang Yunan's background, he is still polite to him.However, this matter is really not trivial.

Every country with gods is very precious to its own gods, and they just want to hide them.If the Egyptian ZF knew that Anubis—yes, the one who was in charge of the cycle of life and death and guarded the tomb of the Pharaoh—had been kidnapped by Huaxia, maybe it wouldn’t be good.

The leader was over 50 years old, with a large area of ​​baldness on his head, and looked very haggard.He frowned tightly, clasped his hands and looked at the person who came in, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Jiang, I heard that you brought back the gods of Egypt without authorization?"

Jiang Yunan raised his eyebrows, and before he could speak, he heard the door behind him being pushed open.He Gu strode in, pulled a chair over and pushed Jiang Yunan to sit down, then made a chair for himself, sat upright and said with a smile: "Uncle Hao, how can our Professor Jiang have the guts? That dog is I brought it back."

He sighed, and patted the back of Jiang Yunan's hand under the table to keep him silent: "I picked up a dog in Xinjiang, and I brought it back to raise it because it was eye-catching. Who knows if it's an Egyptian dog or a dog?" Howling dog? Tsk..."

Director Hao's face darkened: "Nonsense!"

"Why are you messing around?" He Gu twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled unseriously, "Even if it is from Egypt, it came to China by itself. Is this a smuggling or an illegal immigrant? Lawless, even a god No way! I'll enforce the law and bring it to justice... There's no need for rewards, Uncle Hao, you can just say a few nice words about me with my dad when you have time."

These words made Director Hao's face change a few times, but he was not as angry as before.Why is this as sharp-tongued and eloquent as his father was back then, this ability to speak black and white is really enviable, but it is not unreasonable to think about it seriously.

Director Hao still pulled his face: "Then what do you say?"

He Gu shrugged his shoulders and resolutely dismissed the blame: "You know, I don't understand politics and things like that. Come, Professor Jiang."

The other members at the conference table who were brought to the meeting were terrified by his operations. Seeing that he finally stopped his strange speech and handed it over to the gentle and kind Professor Jiang, they all heaved a sigh of relief for a while. .

However, soon, all the participants remembered the thick skins of these two.

They saw Jiang Yunan smiled slightly, and said in a relaxed and natural way: "I think it's always better to have as many gods as possible. If you really can't do it, show us a door, make a mascot or something... there's a lot of face."

He Gu was stunned for a moment: "Are you serious?"

Everyone looked straight at Jiang Yunan, and seeing him nodding his head indifferently, they were a little dazed... Abducting an important god of Egypt to be a "watchdog" is too much.

Jiang Yunan signaled the need for a separate space for conversation, Director Hao asked everyone else to go out, leaving only the three of them.

After today's interrogation, Anubis obviously knew something, but he refused to say anything.It is impossible for him to hand over the mountain dog before he finds out the whereabouts of Zhuyin.After Zhuyin came back... Based on Anubis' loyalty to him, he probably wouldn't leave.

Jiang Yunan didn't go into such details, but he roughly expressed that he had a "close friendship" with this Egyptian god and was able to control the situation.After confirming that there would be no impact on state relations, Director Hao left contentedly.

After the meeting, the whole department probably realized that he and He Gu were not easy to mess with, and even the exorcist was polite to him.Who would dare to underestimate him, did Director Hao have nothing to do with them?

Jiang Yunan naturally understood that if some reason hadn't been carried for him today, this matter would not have been resolved so easily.This matter was indeed sloppy. After all, Director Hao still looked at General He's face, so he shouldn't be too harsh on them.

He is very grateful for He Gu's maintenance.He Gu drove him downstairs, and routinely teased and invited him: "It's really early to get off work today, do you want to have a meal together, and then go experience..."

Jiang Yunan interrupted him: "You can eat, but you don't need to experience your bed."

In the past two months, Hegu has been used to being rejected, and he didn't react for a while.He looked at Jiang Yunan, making sure that he was not joking, the corners of his mouth raised uncontrollably.Turning the steering wheel and kicking the accelerator, the car drove fast: "What do you want to eat? French food or Japanese food, or hot pot or something like that? I remember the time I invited you to eat in Asgard. You like to eat eyeballs. right?"

He babbled on and on in a moment of excitement, and only after he finished talking did his eyes realize that something was wrong.However, he immediately noticed that Jiang Yunan turned his head and looked out the window, not paying attention to what he was saying.

"What are you looking at?"

Jiang Yunan withdrew his gaze, shook his head slowly, and showed a very gentle smile: "It's nothing."

Just a moment ago, from the corner of his eye, he saw a familiar figure standing under the streetlight downstairs of his house, but when he looked again, there was no one there.

Probably got it wrong.
