With history as a mirror, one could know the rise and fall.
Carefully comparing the cat abuse incident this time with the cat abuse incident in the Middle Ages, it was easy to find some familiar clues.
The original Holy Cat statue in the shop was in the British Museum, but was there only one original statue? There was only one statue like this, and it happened to be dug up by humans? Who would believe such a probability?
A more reasonable explanation was that there could be many such statues of the Holy Cat, at least not the only one. Then, nearly a thousand years ago, the Europeans dug up one of them. Then, in the early 20th century, they dug up a second one, which was the one stored in the British Museum.
According to the description in The Voice of Rome, the first Holy Cat statue was lucky. It didn't meet Vladimir, and it was successfully resurrected as a statue, but it wasn't clear how far the resurrection had progressed, and whether it had completely gotten rid of its bronze shell.
The Church had never seen such a strange thing, and they were so scared that they almost peed their pants. The method they used was too violent, and they wanted to kill all the cats in Europe, but they didn't know that this was exactly what the Holy Cat statue wanted.
The tragedy didn't only happen to cats.
At that time, the Church's sphere of influence was too large, and its execution was strong enough. It almost completed the feat of exterminating the cat race. There weren't enough cats to catch rats, and the Europeans at that time weren't very hygienic, resulting in a plague of rats. The fleas that parasitized the rats eventually led to the Black Death, or the plague, that swept across Europe, causing the Europeans to pay a heavy price.
Thousands of villages were filled with arrows, and thousands of households were filled with ghosts. The Black Death killed almost half of the European population, and it also rewrote European history, indirectly leading to the decline of the Church's power. Otherwise, who knew what the world would be like today?
In this battle, both the Church and the cats suffered losses, and the rats and fleas were the final winners.
What Zhang Zian was more interested in was how the resurrected Holy Cat statue was dealt with in the end. At that time, there was no Vladimir, and there was no Meow Meow Doctrine iron fist to suppress, so the Holy Cat statue must have been destroyed in the end. Who destroyed it?
This was a thought-provoking question.
At that time, the strength of the Church was so strong that it could completely compete with the royal power. There must have been many hidden talents in the Church. Some of the priests were good at exorcism. Perhaps it was these priests who destroyed the heretic worshippers in Germany, ending the life of the previous Holy Cat statue, and then destroying the Holy Cat statue.
They thought that by destroying it, everything would be fine, and they would never have thought that after nearly a thousand years, a similar incident would happen again.
Fei Na mentioned this matter, obviously not to help Zhang Zian review history, but to have other intentions.
The similarity between these two incidents was that people had dug up the Holy Cat statue from the ground.
After thinking about it, Zhang Zian vaguely grasped some clues, but he was still not sure. He asked, "You mean …"
"Some things should be buried forever," Fina said.
Zhang Zian confirmed, "Are you saying that we should dig a hole and bury it again to prevent it from coming into contact with humans? Where was he buried? How deep? Is it okay to bury it in the green space? "
Fina nodded first, then shook her head. "We should bury it, but we can't just find a random place to bury it."
Zhang Zian also felt that they couldn't just bury it casually. Burying this thing anywhere in the city was a hidden danger. Who knew when they would dig it up again when they were building the subway … Even if they were going to bury it, they had to at least choose a place where people rarely went.
"Then where is the best place to bury it?" He asked. At the same time, he began to think about where there were few people around and where they wouldn't break ground for a long time.
"Ordinary places won't do. It can only be buried in a place protected by the gods," Fina said seriously.
"A place protected by the gods?"
When Zhang Zian heard this term, he knew that things weren't as simple as he thought.
"Yes, the center of the pyramid, and let the Egyptian gods guard it." Fina said a term that almost made his jaw drop.
Zhang Zian said, "… Did I hear you wrong? You mean to bring this Holy Cat statue to Egypt and bury it in a pyramid? The Great Pyramid of Egypt? Not the one in the Louvre? Well, even the one in the Louvre would be difficult … "
Fina nodded. "It doesn't have to be the Great Pyramid. Other pyramids might work too."
Zhang Zian didn't know what to do. This mission was too difficult. Although more than 110 pyramids had been discovered in Egypt, any one of them was probably protected. It was unimaginable to bring the Holy Cat statue in and leave it there forever.
"What do you think?" he asked the other elfins.
Old Time Tea said, "I think that although this is very difficult, it's worth a try. Even if it doesn't work, there's no loss. It's just bringing more things on the way to Egypt."
Zhang Zian's head hurt. This wasn't as simple as bringing more things. Such a heavy bronze lump would definitely not be cheap! And Professor Weikang's expedition team wouldn't reimburse this cost …
Vladimir didn't care about the Egyptian gods and didn't think that those gods could do it, but it didn't want to waste time guarding the statue in the shop. It still had many important things to do.
So it clenched one of its front paws and said, "It's better to chase after the enemy with courage than to learn from the overlord! If you all think it's feasible, then I'll agree. After all, the minority obeys the majority! In short, we have to get rid of this evil. We can't let it harm the world again! "
Famous also agreed with this plan. After all, this was the only way. It was better to send this evil statue to Egypt than to keep it by their side. If it didn't work, they could just bring it back.
As for the other elfins, there was basically no need to ask.
"Right, what do you mean by 'on the way to Egypt?' You're going to Egypt? "Vladimir asked Old Time Tea curiously.
Zhang Zian answered for Old Time Tea, "That's right. There were too many things to do before, and it wasn't time to leave yet, so I didn't have time to tell you about this. We're going to Egypt with a scientific expedition team. Originally, it was just to relax and travel at public expense, but now we have an additional mission. Vladimir, do you want to come with us? "
If Weikang heard this, it would probably vomit blood.
"Egypt …" Vladimir muttered thoughtfully.
Zhang Zian gave it plenty of time to think and didn't rush it.
Very quickly, it raised its right front paw and waved it firmly. It said passionately, "Go! You must go! Although the stray cats in Binhai City are already living a happy life, two-thirds of the world's suffering cats are still living in the abyss of suffering, waiting for us to liberate them! Asia, Africa, and Latin America! Europe, America, and Japan! I want to plant the cat flag all over the world! "
Zhang Zian was speechless.
