Okonuo was almost half-forced to agree to the request of Zheng Zha and others, and took these ten people to Hamnata, the capital of the deceased. Of course, after that, Zheng Zha took two gold bars for him and promised to use them as the consumption of his equipment and supplies, Okonuo finally felt a little balanced. In desperation, he could only take Zheng Zha and others to the hotel where he lived, a place that looked like a residential compound.
O'Connor seemed to be a regular customer here. As soon as he entered the hotel, he chatted and laughed loudly with a blond young man. The general idea was that, man, I had been in prison for a few days and was almost not hanged. I finally came back today and saw that you, the baby, lived a very comfortable life, and I felt very unhappy...
After saying a word, O'Connor turned his head and said to Zheng Zha and others: "You stay here first, I'll sell the gold... and buy some firearms and ammunition by the way. Of course, I think you probably don't need any firearms, right?" After that, he smiled and pointed at Zero.
Zheng Zha also laughed. He knew that the male protagonist O'Connor in the Legend of Gods and Ghosts was a man of great nobility. He would basically do what he promised, but because of the five thousand distances, he took out a gold bar from the ring and said, "There are some reasons that we must follow you, but we will never be stingy in terms of money. Don't worry, we also know that there are some people in black who guard the capital of the deceased. If we meet them again, we will be responsible for dealing with them. We just hope to find the capital of the deceased."
O'Connor looked at Zheng Zha and others in confusion. He was not polite, so he took the gold bars and weighed them for a few more times and said, "If you want to go, you have to hurry up. I promised that woman to see them in Giza Port tomorrow morning. It would be very unsafe to go to the black market in the evening. I don't want to be shot there by someone, let's go."
There was nothing to say along the way, and soon everyone followed O'Connor back to the hotel. The man looked like a Cairo local snake. He easily exchanged three gold bars for a lot of cash and small gold coins. Not only did he buy himself a large bag of weapons, but he also bought a few new clothes and leather shoes. In short, when he and Zheng Zha and others returned to the hotel, the cheerful man was no longer so restrained, but started to laugh loudly with Zheng Zha and the others.
Although the hotel is not big, the suites inside are actually very complete. During dinner, everyone applauded a lot of Egyptian-style meals. Then O'Connor talked to everyone about his experience of being a soldier for several years, especially how he and the troops broke into the capital of the Dead three years ago, and how he and the troops rushed back from the desert.
"...That year we received an order to look for the legendary capital of the Dead, which has infinite gold... Haha, if you hadn't known that you had never been there, I would have suspected that you had found the gold treasures of the Dead... In short, after we had eaten enough yellow sand, we were very lucky on the day we saw Hamnata, the capital of the Dead, the legendary tomb of the Pharaoh resting, the holy books of gold and black, and the priceless gold Pharaoh resting capital, Hamnata..."
"Not long after we got there, we had time to conduct a simple excavation and adventure, and we were attacked by a group of men in black, who drove us away. I escaped after encountering something strange. At that time, I was almost killed by those men in black, but the ground where I stood suddenly popped up and a human face appeared from below. Maybe it was the legendary ghost guarding the tomb... Ah, in short, I escaped alive at that time, and then I was facing the boundless desert..."
"So thirsty, at that time..."
When O'Connor said this, he took a bottle of tequila and took a few sips, and then he said: "At that time, I was in the desert, and there was no supply or fresh water on me. It took three days to go from the capital of the Dead to the nearest oasis. It was a desert, without horses or camels, and it took at least five days to go. In such temperature and exposure, individuals would be dried into human jerky..."
"On the third day, I started eating snakes and scorpions, sucking out their liquid and drinking them, then biting my lips and letting the blood moisten my throat... At night, I dug out the sand layer and moistening my mouth from the wettest sand below... I don't know how I persisted to the oasis. At that time, I must have looked like a mummy, haha..."
These words were plain, but the dangers and difficulties were really not worthy of being told. Zheng Zha and others also silently comforted him. Of course, there were also people waiting for the indifferent people to eat on their own at midnight. The atmosphere seemed really strange.
O'Connor suddenly said, "Why do you want to go to the Capital of the Dead? Judging from the gold you gave me, it is the purest gold bar, and you give it so easily, it looks like you are very rich. Is the gold in the Capital of the Dead really attractive to you?"
Zheng Zha smiled bitterly, he picked up the bottle of tequila and took a few sips, and said, "If I tell you, we went to the world of the dead not for gold, but because we would die if we didn't go, would you believe our words? It sounds really incredible..."
O'Connor said thoughtfully: "Is it because of the curse? Forget it, I don't understand this. In short, I will do what I promised. Let's go to the capital of the Dead tomorrow... I hope I won't escape back in a mess this time."
(It will probably be difficult, and it will escape back in a very embarrassing way...)
The few people who knew the plot couldn't help but smile bitterly. In the plot of the legend of gods and ghosts, O'Connor and others released the immortal priests. In desperation, they had to escape back to Cairo from the capital of the dead in a very embarrassing way. Although the supplies were sufficient, there was a mummy chasing behind the scenes. This feeling was really unfair.
"Okay! Then we will go to the immortal capital Hamnata tomorrow!" Zheng Zha held the bottle and touched O'Connor, and nodded affirmatively.
Suddenly, Zhan Lan smiled slightly cunningly and said, "By the way, before going to the capital of the Dead, we still have to buy something, which is our best amulet."
"What?" several people asked in unison, including Zheng Zha and O'Connor.
"cat!"
