Chapter 1304 It seems like I’ve been here before
Nie Yao said this and emphasized to Steve, "Now that the underground palace has been excavated, the tomb robbers hiding behind it seem to know the function of the heirloom better than we do, so we must be even more careful!"
Steve nodded earnestly and whispered, "Yes, that's why I specifically requested that the artifacts unearthed from our underground palace not be announced to the public for the time being, so as not to attract the attention of those criminals again..."
Nie Yao nodded, and continued walking forward with Steve through the colonnaded hall, passing through a long and narrow passage and coming to an open stone chamber.
This stone chamber was relatively simple, with no stone door and no gorgeous objects. It only had a staircase, and the walls were painted with brightly colored portraits of the gods Amun and Horus on all four sides.
"It looks like a prayer room..." Nie Yao said thoughtfully, picking up the camera to take some pictures.
The captains of other archaeological teams decided to act separately from Nie Yao and his team to improve efficiency.
Nie Yao did not stop them, but just reminded them to be careful, and continued to move forward with Steve. Looking at the murals in the corridor and the statues on the stone pillars, she was a little stunned for a moment.
"Senior, what's wrong?" Steve took a few steps and saw that Nie Yao hadn't caught up. He turned around and asked with concern, "Is there something wrong?"
"I always feel that this place looks very familiar..." Nie Yao frowned slightly and murmured softly, "It's like I've been here before..."
Steve burst into laughter upon hearing this. He walked up to Nie Yao, waved his hand in front of her, and asked in amusement, "Senior, are you dreaming? This underground palace is the first to be discovered in Egypt. As for the temples and the Valley of the Kings above ground, it's not surprising that you feel familiar with them, but how could you have been here before..."
Nie Yao didn't pay any attention to Steve's teasing. She frowned even more tightly, carefully looking around at the layout around her, and whispered, "You're right, I did come here in a dream..."
Steve was stunned for a moment, thinking he had misheard. He stared at Nie Yao with wide eyes: "Senior sister, you are not lying to me, are you? Did you really... dream about this place?"
Nie Yao nodded slightly, stroking a statue on one of the stone pillars, and said in a deep voice, "That's right. I had this feeling when I entered the pillared hall just now. Now that I've seen the prayer room and walked through this corridor, I'm even more convinced that I did dream of this exact place. Even the murals on the walls in my dream are the same!"
"Could it be that you mistook the murals in the Valley of the Kings for the ones here? After all, they are basically the same." Steve asked curiously, turning his head.
"No, although the murals in the Valley of the Kings are relatively well-preserved, there are no such corridors or columns!"
Seeing that Steve still refused to believe her, Nie Yao thought for a moment and said to Steve, "Keep going, then turn left and go to the first room..."
Seeing that she was so sure, Steve didn't ask any more questions. He nodded and followed her instructions. The group walked over together. Sure enough, they didn't walk too far before they turned left and found a room with a stone door.
Steve was just about to ask how to open the stone door when Nie Yao found the hidden switch of the stone door according to her memory in the dream, opened the stone door, and a group of people walked in.
This stone chamber is even simpler than the prayer room, and its layout is a bit strange. Stone slabs are placed side by side, and there are many stone jars placed next to them, some of which are already damaged.
