Chapter 216 Strong wind, strong wind! (Ask for monthly ticket)
UK, London.
At the intersection of New Oxford Street and Russell Square, the moonlight shines on an ancient Greek Revival style building. The standing columns have gone through the baptism of time and become more solemn and straight, making the entire building look grand and solemn.
“This is the British Museum? It looks much more spectacular than the one we have in New York.”
“Tsk, my uncle said that almost all the collections inside were plundered from other countries. What’s inside is the history of the invasion of Yu.”
"."
Wednesday looked at Emma strangely after hearing this. If people from countries that were really plundered and invaded said this, there would be absolutely no problem, but Emma. She said it as if it were her own. It’s like the country has never done this before.
Xiao Baizuo.
She rolled her eyes helplessly, and then asked: "Should we use mind control to go in directly like before?"
As three For a little girl who has just turned ten, it is almost impossible to travel from New York to London without an adult accompanying her.
But luckily, there are not only two witches among them, but also a cyberloli who can easily break through various network firewalls in his mind.
So, with the help of mind control and data modification, they successfully disguised themselves as the children of a couple traveling abroad, and arrived at the door of the British Museum carrying the Pharaoh's gold medal with the power of resurrection.
But this time, Emma shook her head and refused to use mind control again.
On the flight to London, she read a lot of information about the museum, and she remembered one thing clearly: at the main entrance of the British Museum, there were nearly fifty security teams patrolling day and night.
With her and Wednesday's current abilities, they cannot control so many people's minds at the first time.
"Let's go to the back door and have a look."
According to her understanding of the museum, this place should be similar to the museum in New York, with special passages dedicated to transporting collections.
The fact was just as she expected. Soon after, the three found an employee passage on the street behind the museum, where there were only two sentry boxes guarding it.
In one of the sentry booths, a bloated female security guard was holding her chin in her hands, concentrating on the movie playing on the tablet.
“I worked hard for three years just to find out who you are. I was shot, stabbed, tortured, and my ribs were broken twice. But now I can still see you and talk to you. , everything is worth it.”
"But you don't even know me yet"
"I have a lifetime to get to know you."
Looking at the affectionate confession of the male protagonist in the movie, the female security guard couldn't help but be moved to tears. , eyes full of yearning for love.
At this moment, a voice brought her back to reality from the fantasy of love.
""Big Fish"?"
The female security guard was so frightened that she looked up. When she found that the two little girls were speaking, she breathed a sigh of relief.
The museum is located next to London's famous Russell Square, where citizens often run around at night. She naturally thought that the two children were just members of a nearby family.
"Yeah, I like romantic and sincere love movies." The female security guard nodded excitedly, and then listed them all: ""Time Traveler", "La La Land", "Notting Hill" , "My family bought a zoo."
Emma listened to her with a smile, and then asked curiously: "Sister, do you have a boy you like?"
"Uh"< br>
The female security guard tilted her head in embarrassment and glanced secretly at the guard booth opposite, and found that the man there was also chatting happily with a little girl. She immediately lowered her voice and said shyly: "Did you see the man there? Ron Sman, he is simply the man of my dreams. He is tall, handsome, and not male, which is so precious in London!"
"Oh, have you confessed to him? ?" Emma continued to ask.
"Me?" The female security guard looked down at her bloated figure and smiled bitterly, "How could a man like him fall in love with me?"
Emma gently Nodding, she caught Wednesday's OK gesture from the corner of her eye. She acted without hesitation, with a mysterious green light flashing in her eyes as she stared deeply at the female security guard in front of her.
"From now on, you will forget you have seen us. Open the door and let us in. Don't open the door again until you hear a knock on the door. Do you understand?"
< br>
The female security guard who was immersed in the fantasy of Ron a second ago, now her eyes became vacant and lifeless. She mechanically pulled the valve on the table, and the originally closed door slowly opened.
Emma smiled proudly, turned around and prepared to enter the museum, but just after taking a few steps, she suddenly turned around and added:
"Also, remember to take a shower after get off work tomorrow. Take a shower and dress yourself up. Then, bravely go to the man named Ron and tell him how much you love him!"
"." The female security guard nodded numbly, as if she had been tricked. Like magic.
After finishing speaking, she was satisfied with taking Meghan with her and followed Wednesday into the British Museum.
Contrary to their previous expectations, even at night, the entire museum was not as dark as they imagined.
The wall lamps neatly arranged on both sides emit a soft and dim light. Although the brightness is not as bright as daytime, it is enough to ensure high visibility, making the flashlights they brought completely useless.
And from the moment they entered, a sudden change occurred in the museum.
In the galleries on both sides, the characters in the paintings seemed to be given life, staring at the outside world through the frames in amazement.
"Hi, good evening Napoleon."
Emma waved to the image of Napoleon on a prancing horse and whip in a painting beside her, and then quickly led her companions through the long corridor filled with oil paintings.
"Meghan, do you know the direction of the Egyptian Pavilion?" Emma turned and asked as she ran.
A blue stream of data flashed across Megan's eyes, and then, a floor plan of the British Museum was projected from her eyes.
“The Egyptian Pavilion and the Chinese Pavilion are closely connected. They are both one of the most popular exhibition halls in the British Museum.”
“With our current location, going to the Egyptian Pavilion requires First pass through the Ancient Greece and Rome Pavilion, the European Pavilion and the Chinese Pavilion.”
"Now go straight forward for two hundred meters, and then..."
Under Megan's guidance, several people quickly shuttled between the galleries.
However, just as they were about to climb to the second floor, Wednesday's footsteps suddenly stopped, he turned back suddenly, raised his hand and grabbed a short stone arrow!
“Is there an enemy?!” Emma immediately looked around alertly upon seeing this.
The next second, a burst of singing suddenly sounded:
"Everynightinmydreams~"
"Iseeyou, Ifeelyou~"
"."
(My heart will last forever)
As the song came, the three A little boy about the size of a baby with wings flew up to them holding a bow and arrow, humming a popular love song.
"This is..." Emma said confusedly: "Cupid?"
Whoosh——
At this time, another stone arrow shot at Emma, but under the control of her mind, The arrow fell limply to the ground before it reached her.
Wednesday looked at the arrow aimed at her and Emma with strange eyes, and said speechlessly: "Don't they see that we are both girls?"
Emma The corners of his mouth raised slightly, "Yeah, who knows?"
Since these resurrected Cupid stone sculptures were not specifically attacking their enemies, they did not continue to investigate. After Wednesday just pointed at these little guys threateningly, he continued to lead everyone to the second floor.
"Roar——!"
Before they could stop, a deafening roar exploded like thunder from the stairs.
Looking up, I saw a giant stone lion that was two stories high, opening its bloody mouth and letting out a deafening roar at them. This giant lion is so huge that one claw is as tall as half a person like Emma, making it intimidating.
"The lion statue comes from an ancient tomb in the city of Knidos in the ancient Greek period in the 2nd century BC." Megan's lips moved slightly and she explained calmly.
"Everyone can tell that this is a big lion!" Emma's eyes widened, looking at the giant lion in front of her with its hind legs bent, roaring and staring at them, and she couldn't help but feel an inexplicable nervousness in her heart, "But it Why is it so hostile to us?”
“Maybe it’s hungry and wants to eat children?”
Wednesday said casually, then raised his right hand, and magic power surged in his palm. A huge force of thought burst out from it, trying to knock the giant lion to the ground.
However, when this invisible force came into contact with the giant lion weighing several tons, it only pushed it back a few steps.
Then, as if the stone lion was irritated, it kicked its hind legs that were ready to go, and instantly ejected into the sky, waving its two giant claws, like a milky white lightning, and rushed towards Wednesday. Come.
For an ordinary child, it would be impossible to escape this blow, like a fart in an elevator.
But unfortunately, none of the three people present were ordinary.
Wednesday is holding Emma, and they are preparing to use teleportation to escape from this place together.
The witch's teleportation skill can only teleport to places within a certain distance between herself and her surroundings that she has personally stepped on.
Now, as long as they use this move, they can go back downstairs and easily avoid this blow.
Emma didn't move at all, she just hid behind Megan. Then, under Wednesday's puzzled gaze, a shocking scene appeared.
Buzz——!
The robot Megan suddenly stretched out her hands, grabbed the claws of the giant lion accurately, and blocked it in front of several people. Then, she clenched her fist and hit the giant lion's paw hard!
The giant lion, which was originally extremely ferocious, instantly let out a shrill wail. As if it had seen a monster, it looked at Megan in horror, then whimpered and took a few steps back.
Just when Emma and the others thought that this guy was going to continue to fight back, the lion seemed to be scared, whimpering, taking big steps, and quickly escaped from here.
Looking at its butt swinging its tail, Emma shrugged. This fierce and cowardly look reminded her of Stan in the museum at home.
She glanced at Wednesday, who was looking at Megan in shock, and said with a proud smile: "Megan was transformed by the minions and is now very powerful. Not only is she incredibly strong, but she also has more He has many other abilities.”
Wednesday snorted, ignoring Emma who started to show off again, and walked directly to the front, preparing to pass through the ancient Greek and Roman pavilion.
It is worth mentioning that in this exhibition hall, almost all kinds of stone sculptures, bronze sculptures and busts are displayed. Each of these statues is tall, standing here like a giant.
“Lower your head~”
Emma and others bent down slightly, nimbly dodging the feet of a giant stone statue, and carefully shuttled through the exhibition hall full of giants.
But fortunately, the stone statues carved here are either philosophers or gods. Therefore, they all appear polite. Many statues even waved and nodded politely when they saw Emma and the others.
"Hey! Stop! Stop, little girl!"
At the moment they were about to pass through the Ancient Greek and Roman Pavilion, a stone sculpture with its upper body fixed on the exhibition stand suddenly made a sound, Stopped them. Emma turned around and looked curiously at the statue of an old man with a solemn sculpture and flowing hair, and asked: "What do you want to do?"
"That. This"
The old stone carver looked around the booth. After confirming that no one was paying attention, he lowered his voice and said, "Can you help me scratch my nose? It's already itchy. Thousands of years, oh no, it’s been itching since I was carved!”
“.”
Emma couldn’t help but curled her lips when she heard this, obviously they were the first one tonight! She was resurrected for the first time, but her eyes fell on the demigod statue in front of her that had no arms and only cut off the chest, and her eyes scanned the introduction plate below.
"From the 1st century Roman Park, the God King - Zeus?!" Emma looked at the old man in surprise, "Are you Zeus?"
The old stone carving man nodded proudly, with a flattering smile on his face: "So now, can you scratch your nose for me?"
Looking at his slightly wretched appearance as an old man, Emma asked. He couldn't help but laugh, stretched out his hand and gently picked his nose twice, and then prepared to move on to the next exhibition hall.
But at this moment, the old man suddenly spoke again. His eyes were fixed on the schoolbag Megan was carrying, and he asked curiously: "Did you bring any treasure in? I can feel it, There is a powerful divine power in that little girl's bag."
"Haha." Wednesday turned his head impatiently and smiled slightly at him, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "You think you are. How did you come back to life, Zeus?"
After speaking, the three people left the Ancient Greece and Rome Exhibition Hall without hesitation. Looking at their hurried figures, Zeus recalled Wednesday's words just now, and slowly opened the corners of his mouth, revealing a meaningful smile.
"Hey! You! Yes, you stupid big statues, come here quickly!"
——————
Soon after, Emma and her group left After passing the previous exhibition hall, walking through a long corridor, we entered the European Pavilion.
The main displays here are British native cultural relics, but compared with the previous grand exhibition halls, this place looks small and simple, even a little pitiful.
A broken copper shawl, a pile of broken bronze bars, a rusty knight’s mask, a stone chess set
"Here are the cultural relics of the Republic of China?"
Even Wednesday was a bit speechless. How did the people of this country have the courage to display their cultural relics between the Ancient Greek Pavilion and the Chinese Pavilion.< br>
“These things are not even qualified to be resurrected.”
Emma echoed, with a bit of ridicule in her tone. However, before their laughter could stop, the sound of rapid horse hooves echoed in the exhibition hall.
They stood on tiptoes, trying to see the source of the sound.
I saw a whole row of knights waving their swords, sitting on horseback, wandering proudly in the exhibition hall as if patrolling their own territory.
“Knights of the Round Table!” Meghan explained promptly, “This is the largest group of knight statues in the British Museum after the Terracotta Warriors and Horses in the Chinese exhibition hall, with a total of eighty-six people. The leader is none other than the Knights of the Round Table. First, Lancelot, known as the 'Lion of Britain'!"
"Knight?"
After hearing this, Emma snorted disdainfully, "These guys can tell at a glance. It is a modern handicraft. If it was really excavated from ancient times, how could the shape be kept so intact?”
In the ancient Greek exhibition hall I just passed, except for a few well-preserved stone sculptures, they were really created before BC. Except for the good ones, most of them are incomplete, and some even have their heads missing.
As for the knights in front of them, even their armor shines brightly, looking nothing like antique relics.
After that, they no longer cared about the knights patrolling back and forth, and prepared to go directly to the next Chinese exhibition hall, and then to their destination this time, the Egyptian hall.
But just as they were about to leave the exhibition hall, a long sword flew from a distance with a swipe and penetrated deeply into a wooden sculpture, blocking their way.
"Who allowed you to leave!"
With a loud voice, a man wearing a knight mask led the entire knights on horseback and ran in front of them.
"Child?!"
When Langstro saw Emma and the others clearly, his interest suddenly disappeared. He pulled out the long sword from the wooden sculpture, and looked at Emma and the others critically through the mask with his blue eyes.
"Who are you?!"
"Uh" Emma looked at the knights surrounding them, shrugged, and casually replied: "Irish?"
“What?!”
When Langstro heard this, he suddenly became furious, "Damn northern savages! They actually sent children to infiltrate Britain! Catch them!"
Before he finished speaking, the members of the Knights drew their weapons and stared at them eagerly. Staring at Emma and others.
“They.” Emma looked at Megan in confusion, “Did I say something wrong?”
This time, Megan didn’t need to answer. Wednesday just knocked hard and silently. He glanced at Emma's head and said angrily: "Where do you think King Arthur fought in the Northern Expedition?!"
"Then what should we do now?"
"Run!"
Boom——!
Wednesday and Emma instantly activated the witch skills, pushing their mind control ability to the extreme. They pushed open an exit surrounded by the knights, and then quickly fled out to the next one. exhibition hall.
Seeing this scene, Lanstro's anger became even more intense, "It's witches! Catch them and burn them at the stake!!!"
"Kill!"
< br>
The members of the Knights whipped their riding whips and ran straight towards Emma and others. However, before taking a few steps, a fireball came from the front!
"Don't use fire! This is a museum, what if there is a fire?"
When Wednesday, who was throwing fireballs behind her, heard this, her movements suddenly froze. She was in disbelief. Look at the girl in front of you.
Is this the same Emma who did whatever she wanted at the witch academy and killed whoever she wanted?
“Run, run!”
Emma didn't notice Wednesday's gaze, took her hand, and ran quickly towards the next exhibition hall with small steps.
The knights behind are all stone statues. Mental control does not work on them, and mind control cannot stop the knights of nearly a hundred people. Fire control cannot be used, and teleportation can only go back to the previous time. place.
She then looked at Meghan who was calm beside her, and then immediately shook her head. If Megan's ability is used, the movement will be too great.
Fortunately, they soon entered the China Pavilion not far away.
“A big rat, a big rat, has no food for me! A three-year-old girl, I am not willing to take care of you~”
"If you don't see it, the water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky and rushes to the sea never to return~"
"Today, on what night, I am flowing in the middle of the island, on what day will I be able to ride with the prince in the same boat"
". ”
As soon as they stepped into the threshold of the Chinese exhibition hall, Emma and others were surrounded by waves of melodious and ancient poetry.
These voices seem to have traveled through thousands of years, echoing in their ears with the weight of history and cultural charm!
In the exhibition hall, pieces of ink calligraphy and painting are hung in the center like clothes on a clothes drying rod. They are light and elegant, swaying gently in the wind.
The characters in the painting - poets, generals and scholars, all seem to have come to life. They are reciting poems and songs that have been passed down through the ages with great emotion, making people feel like they are in an elegant gathering of ancient literati. middle.
Behind these calligraphy and paintings are a dazzling array of porcelain and jade, which shine brightly and make the entire exhibition hall colorful, like a palace of treasures.
However, what shocked Emma and others the most were the huge Buddha statues sitting on the stands in front of the walls on both sides of the exhibition hall.
These Buddha statues are huge and majestic. After seeing Emma and others, they all nodded slightly in greeting, then closed their eyes and continued to recite those profound and difficult scriptures, as if praying for them.
Compared with these solemn Buddha statues, the bronze utensils in the exhibition hall appear more lively and curious.
They were carved into various animal or anthropomorphic forms. They were looking at Emma and others one by one, making curious whispers from time to time.
“Damn Witch of the North!”
While Emma and the others were still shocked by the sheer number of collections in the China Pavilion, the scolding sounds of the knights came from behind.
They didn't care about admiring it anymore, they held hands and started to flee to the next Egyptian Hall.
A few breaths later, the sound of horse hooves echoed in the Chinese exhibition hall. At this time, Langstro had already taken off his helmet, his face full of dissatisfaction and anger.
He followed King Arthur to conquer Ireland, Gaul, Iceland and Norway. Unexpectedly, the Irish sent a child as a spy to infiltrate Britain, and he was also a damn witch!
Looking at the knights getting closer and closer behind her, Wednesday broke away from Emma's hand holding her. She glanced at the large Buddha statue that was sitting on the stand and was dozens of meters tall. , suddenly got an idea.
"Emma, when they are approaching, let's control the Buddha statue together, knock it down and kill these British guys!"
"Huh?" Emma heard He said, looking back at the Buddha statue, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes. "This cultural relic is so big, it must be very valuable. It would be a pity if it was destroyed." She said with some embarrassment.
"Then what do you think we should do?" Wednesday said in a very unhappy tone. If Emma hadn't just said something random, they wouldn't have been hunted down by the Knights of the Round Table.
Emma quickly glanced around, and when her eyes fell on the densely packed and majestic first-class collection standing in the corner, a glimmer of light suddenly flashed in her eyes.
“Follow me!”
The three of them hurriedly walked around a corner, leaving the knights far behind.
Emma stopped and faced the hundreds of resurrected terracotta warriors in front of her.
They looked around blankly. The armor they wore looked cold and solemn under the light, and the spears they held tightly in their hands shone with a cold light.
Emma took a deep breath and shouted loudly using a few Chinese sentences that her uncle once taught her: "Help! Help! Your Majesty, help!"
The Terracotta Warriors soldiers looked at each other, as if they were worried about what was happening in front of them. The strange-looking little girl was very curious.
"Haha! You can't escape!"
At this moment, the knights led by Lanstro had already caught up.
Lancelot waved the sword in his hand, with a proud smile on his face.
However, when he saw the crowd of foreign soldiers wearing armor and holding spears on the opposite side, his smile instantly froze.
The leader of the knights waved his sword angrily and yelled: "Get out of here! This witch is my trophy!"
Many terracotta soldiers looked at each other, They all clenched the spears in their hands and swung them down with all their strength!
Then they glared at Langstro and shouted in unison: "Gale! Gale!!!"
