Egyptian Mythology: Daily Life of the Desert God

When the gods present heard what Shu said, they all thought about it.

Wadjet thought for a while and said: "God of Order, this is not necessary."

"The desert will shrink to 10% in two years."

"Those humans living in the oasis do not need to migrate."

"Wait two years and you will naturally be able to live in the plains."

Shu shook his head and said: "One of the reasons for canceling the original plan is that there is a problem with the Desert God's condition."

"And it's already causing problems in the desert itself."

"If humans don't migrate, natural disasters will occur in the desert, and all humans in the oasis will die."

The gods attached to the desert, such as Jez and Mulan, remembered the sandstorm caused by Set.

They had previously speculated that something was wrong with Seth, and jointly wrote a letter to inform Shu of this matter.

Shu later did not reply to them.

Now their suspicions have been confirmed.

What else did Vajit want to say.

"Does the snake god know what two years means?" Seth looked down at Wadjet coldly and said, "Human beings are from the time when a new life is conceived to the birth of this new life."

"It only takes a year."

"Even though two natural disasters caused a lot of human deaths in the oasis."

"But the number of remaining humans is at least one billion."

"Two years is enough to increase the population by at least 10 million."

"God Ra held a divine council and issued an oracle. I temporarily donated 70% of the desert territory. Isn't this all to increase the population?"

"Why, does the snake god think it's inappropriate?"

When Wajit heard this, he immediately denied it: "I didn't!"

"Then according to what the God of Order said, let's discuss how to resettle humans." Seth said calmly.

Osiris spoke at this time and said: "Although the plain is not as vast as the desert."

“But it’s more than enough to feed 10 billion people.”

"Of course, the premise is that there is enough food."

At this point, Osiris did not continue.

The gods also understood, under the oracle of Ra.

The one who has benefited the most is Osiris.

The two powers of agriculture and fertility are inseparable from human beings.

When he spoke now, it was more like showing off.

Even though Osiris didn't mean it, the gods still felt it was a show off.

"Agricultural farming will inevitably lead to land reclamation." Pomegranate God Fiers said worriedly: "Plant food seeds on the reclaimed land."

"The authority of the gods related to flowers, plants and trees will be shaken at all."

This statement has been recognized by most gods.

At the same time, they also proposed various solutions.

The Linglong Grass God suggested: "Like the gods attached to the desert, separate their territories."

“While ensuring that authority is not compromised at all, it can also delineate areas for human life.”

As soon as these words came out, he was immediately besieged by the gods whose authority was based in the plains.

The reason is simple. There are some humans living on the plains.

However, they are not many in number and live a quiet life.

The main reason is that there are few people in the plains and they are far apart, so there is nothing you can do if you want to stay on your own.

As a result, there is no free land on the plains.

Everything that can be occupied has been taken.

Linglong Grass God’s proposal is to let them abandon the land they occupy! !

Swamp God Ulot suddenly spoke: "I think Linglong Grass God's method makes sense."

"And it is only fair that each god contributes something."

The Swamp Spider God echoed.

Other gods whose authority basically lies in the swamp also spoke up to support the Linglong Grass God.

The gods attached to the desert, such as the Cactus God and the Dragon Blood Tree God, watched silently as they quarreled.

For a moment, the Pantheon was noisy.

Seth watched with great interest, especially looking at the exquisite grass god Mist.

Small and cute looking, with a sweet smile.

No wonder the swamp god Ulot has a crush on her.

Regarding this gossip, Seth saw Youshen mention it in the papyrus gossip newspaper Shu gave him.

It seems to be true now.

The quarrel lasted for two solar hours.

At this moment, a god has already opened his mouth and dragged down the swamp, forest and other gods.

It means that if the plains are to be re-divided, then swamps, forests and other terrains will also have to hand over part of their territory.

Ulot immediately retorted, saying that the swamp was not suitable for human habitation.

The next moment, the blue water flower god said that the desert can be turned into a plain, let alone the swamp.

Seth was lying on his back, but he didn't care.

Shu rubbed his forehead and said helplessly: "Stop."

Hearing Shu's words, the quarreling gods stopped talking.

"Convening a divine meeting is not just for you to quarrel and vent your anger." Shu said, scanning several gods who were often exposed to have grudges.

These gods silently turned their faces away, pretending that they had never spoken.

After speaking, Shu looked at Thoth and asked: "God of Wisdom, do you have any suggestions?"

"Yes." Tuo nodded.

"Tell me about it." Shu heard the words and showed a smile.

The advice of Thoth, the god of wisdom, has always been reliable.

The eyes of the gods fell on Thoth.

"Establish a restricted area." Thoth said slowly: "Every god has built a temple on the earth."

"The area around the temple is a restricted area."

"Humans are not allowed to farm, hunt, or fight in the restricted area."

"God can preserve his roots in the restricted area and raise his son."

"It is not difficult to delineate restricted areas for more than a thousand gods from a plain that can support 10 billion people."

"For humans who migrate to the plains, as long as they don't touch the restricted area, let nature take its course."

"Of course, the restricted area can only be used for one temple of one god."

Seth thought for a moment and realized that this method was actually the same as the one proposed by Linglong Grass God.

They all allow God to make way for mankind.

However, some specific details have been refined.

Those gods whose authority basically rests on the grassland are definitely not happy, but it has nothing to do with him.

Seth said: "This method is very good."

Seth most agrees with the sentence about humans letting nature take its course.

Hearing Seth's approval, Hathor also smiled and agreed.

Osiris and Isis also agreed with this method.

The higher gods and lower gods attached to the plain looked at each other.

They are not stupid, and they naturally know that what Thoth said is the same as what the Linglong Grass God said.

However, Linglong Grass God is the lower god and Thoth is the main god.

Facing the Lord God, they were naturally suppressed.

What's more, there are desert gods who "voluntarily" give up desert territory, as well as several main gods who agree.

"God's restricted area sounds very interesting." Best said with a smile.

"Indeed, let's go take a look after the restricted area is set up." Nut smiled at Kebu.

"Okay." Kebu nodded with a smile.

Seth, Isis, Osiris, and Nephthys looked over and felt strange.
