Moon Wake Heyang
Work related
on expensive carpets.
Unas was not in a hurry, he stood quietly, his smiling eyes occasionally turned to the young woman behind the table, with a very patient look.
"You don't want to go back now, do you want me to keep you for dinner?" Closing the scroll, he raised his eyes and glanced at Unas with a faint look, and a careless arc at the corner of his lips.
Unable to restrain his eyebrows and eyes, he opened his mouth cheekily. "The king really understands the minister. He knows that the minister likes the fine wines from the king's place, so he is flattered to keep the minister to dine in the palace."
"Fine wine? Did you just drink up to now for a few glasses of wine?" Standing up, stretching the slightly numb arms that had been sitting at the desk for a long time, turning the stiff neck back and forth.
With a flattering smiling face like honey, Unas nodded slightly at her, watching her walk around the table, the corner of her white robe brushed against the golden edge of the table, and half a gray shadow fell on the ground .
"Talk while walking." When passing by Unas, he looked sideways and ordered in a relaxed tone, not so much an order, but more like a friend's tone.
"Yes." Following her footsteps, Unas followed and left the study.
Walking behind her, the fading rosy clouds and the bright firelight weave a rich half-dark beauty, like a colorful and gorgeous neon dress, draped in front of this tall and straight back, gilding her A level of majesty and majesty that ordinary people dare not touch.
The long hair over the shoulders hangs in the breeze blowing from outside the corridor, and the colorful torches on the wall flow in the unfettered hair. The dazzling and sparse light, just like its owner, is proud and bright, Tempting wants to get closer, but dare not go beyond half a step.
Even though they had known each other since childhood, Unas still felt that he would never be able to truly touch the heart of the young king who controlled the fate of Egypt——
Tusahita I, such a resounding name, shocked all the countries in the desert. Even the queen who was loved and protected by the gods of Egypt was actually a proud woman who was as clean and cold as the night wind.
Occasionally, Unas would be confused, whether Tusasita's calmness and indifference came from nature, or all kinds of acquired encounters made her lonely and arrogant now.
Hesitating, Unas was slightly worried about what he was about to say. "My lord, I have something to say."
"Say." Without stopping, Tusasita responded lightly.
"Wang, you handed over the girl you caught that night to Tiha for interrogation, and Tiha hasn't found anything yet."
"Ah."
"It's been two days. With Tiha's methods, even a strong and strong man can probably spit out something. How can a weak girl survive until now without opening her mouth?" See Tusa Sita There was no response, and he continued on his own. "Wang, I have visited her. With her bones and muscles, it is absolutely impossible to be an assassin, let alone an assassin. With my experience, I am afraid that she does not even have a little bit of kung fu."
"Have you been there?" Not surprised, just curious.Turning his head, he glanced at Unas, and the moment he bowed his head guilty, Tusasita withdrew his gaze, a shallow curve at the corner of his lips, revealing the meaning of eager speculation.
"Yes, I have the guts to go to Tiha's criminal department to see her without the king's consent."
"How's it going?" She couldn't remember the appearance of the girl who disturbed the ceremony after a condescending glance that night.
"Your arrow only hurt her leg, not her life. However, Tiha's torture tools are almost killing her."
"The mouth is too hard, so you have to find someone to pry it open. Tiha is very good at making people speak, so don't worry." With a proud tone, he slowly looked sideways, and glanced casually across the evening courtyard, His eyes stayed on the blooming water lilies in the pool, and he smiled knowingly.
"My lord, I never worry about Tiha's ability. What I worry about is that dead people can't speak."
"Very serious?"
"I'm afraid... it won't last for three days."
"..."
"My lord, let me take over this matter."
"Why are you suddenly interested? Don't you always hate the dirty work of interrogation?"
"I don't like it, but this time is an exception. I have a little interest in this girl."
"How could a mere little girl arouse our Lord Unas's interest?"
"The king made fun of the subject. In fact, the matter that the subject is interested in should be the same as the king."
"Oh?" She raised her eyebrows and smiled.
"That little rhyme."
"Small rumors are very common in the upper reaches of the Nile River, and there is nothing worth being interested in." Her brown eyes suddenly darkened, and the coldness that no one saw was settled in her quiet eyes looking at the road ahead.
"Wang, there is nothing special about the little ballad itself. What I am curious about is that she actually read this little ballad to you when she was about to die. Why did she read this, and... who told her? ?”
"Are you sure you can figure it out?"
"I will try my best."
"Well, if this is the case, then my good wine is not for nothing." She said lazily, her eyes, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling, shone with fragments of fire, very beautiful.
"Yes, thank you, Wang." Nodding his head, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Raising his eyebrows, he smiled lightly, and the corners of his lips hooked the presumptuousness of Ye Huo, which ignited a dull golden light in his eyes, and the bottom of his brown eyes, which was as bright as the sun for a moment, faintly hid a trace of a spot like a beast's pupils. Weird and enchanting.

What is pain, that is, do you feel like you have been pricked by a needle and are bleeding?So you sprained your foot and can't walk?Did you fall and scrape your knee?
If it was in the past, Xia Yuebai would have said, yes, that is pain.
It's today, but she wants to say, that's not pain, it's tenderness.
There was a sweet smell in his throat, and before he could open his mouth, a handful of warm blood had overflowed from his half-opened lips, and dripped down his chin onto his chest.
The smell of blood filled her breath, and the blood poured into her nasal cavity, preventing the air from entering her body smoothly. Many times, she almost choked on her own blood.
However, what really made Xia Yuebai feel ridiculous was not being choked to death by her own blood, but that death was an extremely extravagant thing for her now.
After several times of coma, this short man with a pair of ghostly eyes can always use some spices to wake himself up.What awaited her was yet another round of torture and bombardment in an incomprehensible language.
Xia Yuebai didn't understand what he said.Similarly, he didn't understand what Xia Yuebai said.
The man was completely irritated after several inquiries to no avail.He twisted off the thumb of her left hand, then the index finger, and then one by one until the little finger...
Amidst her heart-piercing screams, he laughed out of satisfaction, his face twisted into a cluster of fluorescent and flickering will-o'-the-wisps under Xia Yuebai's tear-filled eyes.
For the next time, he continued to yell loudly, Xia Yuebai's mind gradually slipped into the abyss, looking at him with blurred vision, repeatedly explaining and pleading.
Xia Yuebai's answer intensified his anger.
"I've said... ten thousand... times, I... can't understand... your... words." There was another violent cough, and the coughed up blood foam sprayed on the man's face, and the darkness hit like a wave. I don't know how many times, she fainted.
Tiha cursed angrily, raised the blade in his hand, and cut off Xia Yuebai's arm——
"Stop!" Unas stepped into the dungeon and saw such a scene, he shouted sharply.
Shocked, the blade was raised in the air, only an inch away from the slender arm that was riddled with scars. "Lord Unas, why are you here?"
"Give her to me."
"But----"
"This is Wang Ling, do you have any objections?" He raised his eyebrows and said coldly.
"No, no, the villain dare not disobey the order." He bowed immediately, and stepped aside unwillingly.
"Come on, take her to the backyard of Eshke Palace."
"Yes."
"Be careful." The thick smell of blood came into his breath from the dark dungeon, he gave an order to the guards, raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose, turned and stepped forward.

"Yuebai, Luo Lier said he would take you out to sea for fishing. He just bought a boat recently and is waiting for you to come. Come to Italy for summer vacation, mom misses you."
"Yuebai, you should also pay attention to your body when studying. Don't work too hard. Don't stay up late. Girls who stay up late hurt their skin the most. Do you hear me?"
"Xiao Baibai, can you go shopping with me? I found a shop with delicious desserts. Let's go eat."
"Miss Xia, I, Ji Hui, are very loyal. You should feel lucky to have someone like me as your sister!"
"Yuebai, this design is good. This is the place. Why add a screen? What's the point? Tell me about it, and let Dad learn more."
"Yuebai, the manuscript written by my father has been published. Dad is amazing! I received the manuscript fee today, and the two of us are going to have a meal. You can go tonight when I get off work. You can choose the place!"
"Mom and Dad, where are you? I want to go home, I really want...I really want...to go home..."
Messy thoughts, full of warm and painful memories, why are relatives and friends who were within reach yesterday, but now are separated by a huge obstacle that cannot be overcome by life and death...
time and space.
Falling into the gap between time and space, and being drawn into another world, Xia Yuebai didn't know how to face everything in the future...
Time left her 800 years ago; space sent her to ancient Egypt...a distant era and a strange country.
Her life stops here, reverses, and returns to zero.
What happened in the past two days made Xia Yuebai clearly realize that in the eyes of these ancient people, she was an out-and-out dangerous element.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she was shot, became a prisoner, and was tortured. How could these unlucky things have anything to do with her?Who will tell her how lucky she is to be reduced to such a miserable state in a museum theft.
All kinds of pain came from the limbs and bones, and it was hard to tell where the pain was. It seemed that as long as the blood could flow through it, it was screaming crazy and excruciating pain.
The tightly closed corners of the eyes slowly slid down tears, meandering and disappearing into the sweaty hairline, the tightly knit brows were occupied by wave after wave of pain, the breath of death that could not be wafted by the bright lights, in the Her blushing face became more and more intense because of the high fever.
Unas stood by the bed, looking down at Xia Yuebai who was still crying in a coma, he frowned, his handsome face showed inexplicable unbearable.
★★★★★★★★★
Opening his eyes, he was stunned for a moment, and above his head was a gauze curtain of snow-white spilled, as white as pure snow, clean and somewhat dazzling.
He blinked uncomfortably, his throat was dry and bitter, his tongue was stuffed in his mouth like a stiff stone, desperately in need of water.
"Miss, you're awake, that's great! I'll go find Lord Unas, you wait." A cheerful voice rang in my ear, and before Xia Yuebai could clearly see who was speaking, there was already someone beside her. No one was there.
Originally, I wanted to ask for some water to drink, only to find that I was in a place where there was no one else but myself.
Twisting her neck, a simple movement made her frown in pain.After finally seeing everything around her clearly, Xia Yuebai was already sweating profusely from the pain.
This is a small room, clean and tidy, with a cabinet by the window, a table and a few chairs opposite the bed, and a small low table like a coffee table at the head of the bed.
There were clay pots and cups on the small table, guessing that there should be thirst-quenching water in them, Xia Yuebai tried to move her arm, a heart-pounding pain came from her arm, and the huge pain repelled her attempt to grab the cup like lightning motivation.
Lying resignedly, her eyelids became heavy again, but her dry body, which was extremely dehydrated, made it impossible for her to fall asleep.
There was movement in the room, as if someone was coming, Xia Yuebai tried hard to open his eyes, and looked at a man and a woman walking towards the bed.
"Lord Unas, look, she's awake." The girl who spoke looked very young, happily looking at the tall man beside her, completely unaware of Xia Yuebai's pitiful gaze looking at the kettle again.
With her mouth half open, she wanted to tell them that she needed to drink water, but she couldn't make a sound from her parched throat, Xia Yuebai frowned angrily.
"Penny, give her water." The man noticed Xia Yuebai's anxious gaze, and he said to Petunia, then he went to the square table, picked up a chair, placed it next to the bed, and sat down.
Drinking the water that Penny fed to her mouth, gulping down the water with a hint of sweetness, Xia Yuebai drank two glasses of water in one go, just like the thirsty land that hadn't seen rain in months.
Finally, he could feel the existence of his tongue, and when the cold water flowed into his stomach, his sanity gradually became clear.
"Aren't you thirsty?" Unas sat on the chair with his legs crossed, his eyes full of smiles, and there was a trace of a teasing smile.
She didn't know what he was talking about, but from the young man's smile, she could tell the kind eyes. Xia Yuebai thought for a while before saying, "I'm sorry, I really don't understand what you're saying."
Frowning, leaning on his elbow with one hand, he seemed to be thinking, or just looking at Xia Yuebai.After a while, Unas slowed down and said, "My name is Unas, what's your name?"
Tired, not the body, but the heart.Regarding the status quo that the chicken and the duck talked about, Xia Yuebai was only tired and scared, unable to communicate with words, which made her become the current virtue, unable to save herself in a dangerous situation, it really made people crazy.
"I..." hesitated and sighed.
Seeing her anxiety and powerlessness, Unas was almost sure that this girl couldn't understand their language at all. Seeing her pale face because of panic and timidity, it definitely didn't look like she was pretending.
"Don't be afraid, rest well, I'll come see you tomorrow." Standing up, he said to Petunia, "Take good care of her, and come to me if you need anything."
"Yes, Lord Unas." Petunia bowed and responded respectfully.
Looking at Unas who disappeared by the door, Xia Yuebai was stunned for a moment... Is this the end?
There was no aggressive cursing, no terrible instruments of torture, only a smile, and two or three words that were not painful, and he just left so easily.
Trance, doubt, uneasiness.
"Miss, you can sleep for a while, and call me if you need it." Regardless of whether Xia Yuebai understood or not, Petunia said to herself, and tucked the blanket tightly for her, carefully avoiding her injured leg.
He really wanted to understand the current situation, but the language barrier between them made Xia Yuebai's thoughts come to nothing.Thick tiredness attacked the drowsy brain, and the eyelids moved. Although the brain was still chaotic, the body had gradually fallen into a deep sleep.
★★★★★★★★★
In the next few days, Petunia took good care of her. Even though they couldn't speak the language, the two could communicate with simple gestures. However, Xia Yuebai could only use the right hand with the unbroken finger.
Penny became Xia Yuebai's first teacher in this new world. She taught her to read simple words. In just ten days, Xia Yuebai had already mastered how to say hello, and things like water, food, weather, etc. Words, such a rapid learning ability, rely on her brain with a good memory, her natural ability to imitate language, and her instinctive drive to survive in a crisis.
The young man named Unas came almost every day, sometimes bringing a doctor to see her to check her injuries.
Although he didn't understand what the doctor said to him, Xia Yuebai guessed from his gradually relaxed brows that he was recovering from his injuries. Except that his left hand was still wrapped in a thick cloth, and the condition of his bones could not be confirmed, other traumas were all in his hands. Under the medical treatment of more than 3000 years ago, it gradually improved.
The arrow wound on her leg healed relatively slowly. The calf pierced by an arrow was covered with pungent herbal medicine. Every time Petunia changed the medicine for her, Xia Yuebai couldn't help staring at the clotting black blood. The whole body felt cold from the wound... The sticky green herbs, a large piece of black and purple skin, and the red, swollen and turned flesh made my heart jump, and I felt a little nauseous.
Every evening or afternoon, that handsome man with short brown hair would appear in the room with a warm smile. According to Xia Yuebai's observation, Unas was probably a man of noble birth, because the doctor and Penny They would all bow and salute him with respectful and submissive expressions.
In a society of slavery, people's ranks are extremely strict, and no disrespect can be tolerated. From this, it is not difficult to judge Unas's status.
Time is gradually recovering from the scars on the body, and more than ten days have passed without the aid of modern tools. Calculating the time has become extremely simple. You only need to remember that the sun rises and sets, and the time of day Time passed by in a hurry, a bit poetic, a bit leisurely.
The more languages he mastered, the more he could communicate with them. He still couldn't speak long and complicated sentences, but Xia Yuebai could express his meaning quite satisfactorily just by combining a few words.
Knowing the era he lived in from Unas, who would have imagined that he was the owner of the golden coffin and armor... In the era of Tusahita I, the third pharaoh of the No.12 dynasty of ancient Egypt , more than 800 years ago.
Knowing that the person who shot him that day was the first queen in the history of ancient Egypt, it was no wonder that when he read that inscription, Tusahita, who was holding a bow and arrow, let her go.
Being able to engrave that paragraph of text in his own golden coffin is enough to prove that the poetic and song-like sentence has an important significance that cannot be ignored for Tusahita.
Using the ancient Egyptian that he can speak together, Unas learned of her bizarre experience. The handsome face with a slightly Middle Eastern taste changed a little quickly from shocked to puzzled expression.
After a long silence, his smile froze, he said a few soothing words, got up and left the room.
Xia Yuebai leaned on the bed, recalling that when Unas left that day, the figure he walked to the door suddenly stopped, turned to look at her, pondered for a moment, and said in a heavy tone: "If what you said, It's all fabricated lies, and you will end badly. If what you say is true, then we must be proven."
Proof... How to prove that she did not lie, there is no witness, no physical evidence, only her weird and peculiar narrative.
With a long sigh, he leaned weakly against the head of the bed, tilted his head and looked at the half-open window, the dazzling sunlight fell into the room by the window, and various strange but fragrant smells were brought by the breeze. Everything was so strange, Xia Yuebai didn't know how to return to her time and space.
He sighed again, quietly watching the bright light by the window, with a pair of black eyes full of endless regret.
The author has something to say: the rare winter sun makes my hair explode, and I want to sleep limply. . . . .Go for a run at night, there are so few people running at night in winter, alas. .The long-legged ladies are too afraid of the cold to run.

chapter Five
The red nails were as bright as blood, and the smooth surface of the nails reflected the shattered flames. His slender fingers held a transparent crystal cup. finger.Such a warm color, but because of the too pale hand, it showed a kind of cold and hopeless beauty.
"She's already here." The casual words were spoken in a gentle and pleasant voice.
The young man standing to one side smiled unexpectedly. "real?"
Leaning against the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, her slender figure is wrapped in a water-blue long skirt, like a mermaid shining in crystal-clear water, with a curly chestnut wavy long hair scraping the velvety pink ears with the wind, Like a lingering and affectionate lover whispering intoxicating whispers in the ears.
The dreamlike beauty, but at the moment when the woman raised her head and poured a glass of wine into her throat, it was suddenly covered with a layer of red light invisible to the naked eye, and a ball of fire was bursting from her water-blue back, like the wind. spread around. "Alnis tried so hard, but still failed to hide her well. Finally, the gods of Egypt can watch with their own eyes how that dazzling country by the Nile River turns into a handful of yellow sand."
"Your Highness, I immediately send someone to Egypt to capture her." The man nodded and was about to turn around when the woman raised the empty crystal cup and called to stop him.
"No need."
"Your Highness?" Reaching out to take the empty cup from the woman, the man showed doubts.
With her face slightly tilted, facing the hot sun outside the window, she slowly turned her thin white neck. The scorching sun fell on her skin, and the scorching heat couldn't blend into her cold breath. With a tired sigh, she said softly: " I'll go myself."
I was a little surprised that the person who had not stepped out of this palace for many years actually said that he was going to far away Egypt. "This...will you be abrupt when you go to Egypt? It will be troublesome if you arouse Tusasita's suspicion, and Arnis, the high priest with a nose that is sharper than a dog, is too difficult to deal with."
"The Nile River is about to flood, and the Egyptian New Year is coming soon. At that time every year, thousands of people will pour into Thebes to worship their mother river. Let's join in the fun." The strands of hair were tied and untied, looking at the maids who were playing in the water by the courtyard pool, the glistening water droplets covered those young and delicate faces, and the crisp and sweet laughter was like a moving tune. "Arhan, send a letter to Egypt, saying that Luya and I are going to Egypt to participate in their New Year."
Nodding his head, he made a rough estimate secretly, even if he set off immediately to reach Egypt, it would take two months at the fastest, and the New Year's ceremony would definitely not be able to catch up.Using this as an excuse may be a bit far-fetched. "Yes, I'm going to prepare now. However, even if we leave now, it won't be in time for the New Year."
"It doesn't matter, just find a name to go there. Arhan, you hurry up and prepare, and leave the day after tomorrow."
"Yes, the king and Princess Luya, should I say it, or you?"
After thinking for a moment, she turned her face slightly, squinted at the man behind her from the corner of her eyes, a ray of sunlight pierced through the dark red eyes, the enchanting color of intoxication, condensed and gorgeous, she said slowly: "Brother Wang, I will go and say, Go and tell Luya, she has long wanted to go to Egypt, she must be very happy now."
"Yes." Bowing to salute, Yarhan's lips flashed a pleasant smile.
★★★★★★★★★
Petunia ran in in a panic, and while helping Xia Yuebai to get up, she said nervously: "Miss Xia, pack up quickly, the king wants to see you."
"Who?" What was slow was not her hearing, but her thinking.
"My lord... my lord wants to see you. The guard who came to pick you up is almost outside the courtyard. This servant will help you wash up." Because Xia Yuebai has been bedridden and recuperated, she doesn't even have a decent skirt. What she is wearing at the moment is A plain white dress, this kind of dress can barely be described as simple and clean.
However, if you dress like this to meet the queen of Egypt, it would be disrespectful if you say it lightly, and it would be contemptuous of the kingship if you said it seriously.
Unexpectedly, Tusasita summoned Xia Yuebai suddenly, and it was too late to prepare a decent dress. Penny carefully combed Xia Yuebai's waist-length black hair with a wooden comb. She looked outside the door from time to time, and instructed: "Miss Xia, please remember that you must kneel down when you see the king. No matter what the king asks, you must answer carefully. You can't ask the king questions, you understand?"
Having been with Xia Yuebai for more than a month, Penny has long been used to all kinds of strange words and deeds of this foreign girl... She always has endless questions and is full of curiosity about everything. For the first time, Xia Yuebai When she saw the bread, she was astonished as if seeing a pile of gold; her attitude towards herself was completely indistinguishable from master and servant, and she still remembered that she dragged herself to eat together, and Petunia was almost scared to death by her; Xia Yuebai Half of the time is spent in a daze, and the other half of the time is just drawing and drawing on paper, drawing some strange shapes that are beautiful but can't tell what they are.
Xia Yuebai's completely different behavior made Petunia feel amazed and amazed, but also quite worried. She was simply worried that it would be difficult for such a special girl to integrate into the eyes of others.
"Do you have to kneel?" She had never kneeled once in her life, and now she was asked to kneel down to an antique 800 years ago, really... reluctant.
He rolled his eyes, became angry, and his tone became affirmative. "Definitely, absolutely, don't forget."
"I see." Helpless, it is right to do as the Romans do.
There was movement in the courtyard, the door was pushed open, and two guards stood outside the door, speaking expressionlessly, motioning for Xia Yuebai to follow them.
Helping Xia Yuebai to stand up, Petunia simply straightened the folds of her skirt, put it next to her ear, and whispered again. "Miss Xia, don't make Wang angry, be careful with what you say."
Looking at Penny with a nervous face, she was like a young mother sending her child to school on the first day, except that she didn't have any pride or joy except anxiety.
Smiling and nodding, he said softly, "Understood, don't worry."
Watching Xia Yuebai disappear out of the courtyard with the guards, Penny twisted her skirt tightly with her fingers, stretched her neck and looked at the empty corridor, sighed and turned around and walked into the small courtyard.
★★★★★★★★★
The leg injury doesn’t affect walking anymore, it’s just that after walking for a long time, it’s still a little sore. I don’t know where they are going to take themselves. This palace, which was built thousands of years ago, is more magnificent than I imagined… …
Row upon row of palaces, decorated with gold and all kinds of jewels, are resplendent and magnificent. The gold area embedded on the wall alone makes people dare not guess how rich this ancient country is. This kind of things that are regarded as rare metals by modern people, However, the ancient Egyptians squandered it like a stone, and the gold objects and decorations that can be seen everywhere cannot be described as extravagant.
Stepping on the smooth and flat marble floor under your feet, it looks like countless winding white rivers, flowing vertically and horizontally among the towering stone pillars, adding a pure and transcendent beauty to this extremely luxurious palace...
The patchwork and charming scenery, just when you glance up at random, any corner you come to casually, is breathtakingly beautiful, so beautiful that it makes people linger.
Skip those exquisite and unique murals, skip those lifelike statues standing outside the corridor, skip those pavilions located in the middle of the green water, skip the green plants covering the courtyard, just look at the snowflake stones in front of you. The carefully carved, hollowed-out staircase hanging in the air will make people fall in love with this place madly.
Looking at everything dazedly, I felt like I was about to suffocate. It was too beautiful, too dreamy, and completely unrealistic.
"Go in." Xia Yuebai didn't come back to his senses until the guard sounded a harsh reminder beside him.
Looking up, her astonished eyes revealed her timidity for a moment, and she stared blankly at the huge monster in front of her... A stone gate about the size of an ancient city gate stood in the abundant sunlight, with a golden light that defied all living beings, overlooking it. look at yourself.
Looking around, the impatient expression on the guard's face came into view. Xia Yuebai took a deep breath, lifted her skirt, and stepped into the one-foot-high threshold. The hot summer air behind him was blown away, and even the frantic heartbeat was blown away.
Lowering her head, she slowly walked into the hall, her flickering eyes looked around in a panic, when a familiar figure bumped into the bottom of her black eyes, Xia Yuebai's nervous nerves skipped a bit of happiness.
Unas smiled at her, then turned his head and looked ahead.
Following his line of sight, his eyes startled...
On dozens of white steps 20 meters away, there is a huge statue towering above the sky, at least more than 30 meters by visual inspection. Even people who don’t understand Egyptian history will know that it is the stone statue of the sun god "Rui" worshiped by the Egyptians. .
In front of the stone statue, the golden throne is the place that makes people feel bright.
Dressed in white, with a simple golden crown, the figure leaning casually on the back of the chair is lazy, idle, soaked in dazzling arrogance, and swaying a reckless and unruly aura.
Xia Yuebai didn't know if Tusahita was considered a beauty in ancient Egypt, but from the modern people's aesthetic point of view, she can definitely be called a beautiful woman with outstanding temperament...
The deep eyes traced the black eyeliner unique to the ancient Egyptians, and the deliberately elongated eyeliner made the long and narrow eyes even more determined.The high and straight bridge of the nose has vaguely European features.With a slightly darker wheat complexion, only long-term outdoor sports can lead to such a healthy and radiant complexion.
If one had to pick out a flaw for her, it might be her slightly thick lips, but such a lip shape has been regarded as a symbol of sex appeal by modern people.
The seemingly invisible smiling face on the throne and the slightly raised lip line concealed an inexplicable indifference.
Unexpectedly, the ancient Egyptians located at the junction of Africa and Asia possessed such enviable facial features mixed with European characteristics, or that only the good genes of the royal family could create such an elegant and noble person.
The beauty of Tusasita is neither bewitching nor glamorous, but reveals a majestic and majestic magic, like a lonely golden wind, too obstinate and too dazzling.
She was born to be a king, just sitting quietly like that already made people feel a powerful and inescapable pressure, like a silent wave of air overwhelming the sky.
It also contains the scrutiny of contemplation, which comes from the young queen on the throne.
Tusasita looked at the foreign girl under the steps, and Unas said she was 19 years old.Take a closer look, it seems that the development of the 15-year-old Egyptian girl is not yet mature. I really don’t know what the world she said feeds on. An adult woman can be so thin that it can be blown away by the breeze. appearance.
Black eyes, clean and bright, reminiscent of the stars above the Nile River on a moonlit night, shining light and clear.
However, her face was too pale, whether it was from fear or what was going on, there was almost no trace of blood on that palm-sized face.
The wind blowing from outside the temple pulled up a few strands of long hair and flew over Xia Yuebai's arms, swaying thousands of soft black shadows, causing Tusasita to look away from her face and stare at those innocent people. Lily fluttering hair.For a moment, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he remained silent.
Unas coughed lightly, reminding Xia Yuebai, who was staring blankly at the throne, to salute, what was this silly girl looking at, how could she stare at the Egyptian pharaoh like this.
Suddenly, receiving the warning gaze from Unas, Xia Yuebai immediately realized his gaffe, lowered his head, and knelt down.
"Your Majesty." She spoke in ancient Egyptian, her voice neither humble nor overbearing.
"Get up." He moved his body, resting his elbow on the armrest, resting his chin on his left hand, a faint light flashed across his brown eyes.
"Your name is Xia Yuebai?"
"Yes."
"How's the injury?"
"It's much better, thank you... Wang for your concern." After thinking about it, I didn't know what to call her.In modern times, everyone is used to calling each other by their first names, which is definitely not the case here, not to mention that this stern woman is the king of a country.There should be nothing wrong with calling her "King" after Unas called her.
"Unas has already told me about you, is it true?" Glancing at Unas, he lowered his head slightly, and from the respectful eyes blocked by the brown curly hair on his forehead, he could tell that he was carefully hiding Feeling a little worried, Tusasita seemed to find something interesting, his eyes flickered.
"Yes."
"It doesn't sound very credible." Her eyes were light, and following her tepid voice, the atmosphere in the hall became a little stiff.
Over the past few days, the powerlessness and fear of the status quo accumulated in my heart, under the stimulation of Tusasita's lazy and playful tone, burst out like flames in the wind, and blurted out
Unas was not in a hurry, he stood quietly, his smiling eyes occasionally turned to the young woman behind the table, with a very patient look.
"You don't want to go back now, do you want me to keep you for dinner?" Closing the scroll, he raised his eyes and glanced at Unas with a faint look, and a careless arc at the corner of his lips.
Unable to restrain his eyebrows and eyes, he opened his mouth cheekily. "The king really understands the minister. He knows that the minister likes the fine wines from the king's place, so he is flattered to keep the minister to dine in the palace."
"Fine wine? Did you just drink up to now for a few glasses of wine?" Standing up, stretching the slightly numb arms that had been sitting at the desk for a long time, turning the stiff neck back and forth.
With a flattering smiling face like honey, Unas nodded slightly at her, watching her walk around the table, the corner of her white robe brushed against the golden edge of the table, and half a gray shadow fell on the ground .
"Talk while walking." When passing by Unas, he looked sideways and ordered in a relaxed tone, not so much an order, but more like a friend's tone.
"Yes." Following her footsteps, Unas followed and left the study.
Walking behind her, the fading rosy clouds and the bright firelight weave a rich half-dark beauty, like a colorful and gorgeous neon dress, draped in front of this tall and straight back, gilding her A level of majesty and majesty that ordinary people dare not touch.
The long hair over the shoulders hangs in the breeze blowing from outside the corridor, and the colorful torches on the wall flow in the unfettered hair. The dazzling and sparse light, just like its owner, is proud and bright, Tempting wants to get closer, but dare not go beyond half a step.
Even though they had known each other since childhood, Unas still felt that he would never be able to truly touch the heart of the young king who controlled the fate of Egypt——
Tusahita I, such a resounding name, shocked all the countries in the desert. Even the queen who was loved and protected by the gods of Egypt was actually a proud woman who was as clean and cold as the night wind.
Occasionally, Unas would be confused, whether Tusasita's calmness and indifference came from nature, or all kinds of acquired encounters made her lonely and arrogant now.
Hesitating, Unas was slightly worried about what he was about to say. "My lord, I have something to say."
"Say." Without stopping, Tusasita responded lightly.
"Wang, you handed over the girl you caught that night to Tiha for interrogation, and Tiha hasn't found anything yet."
"Ah."
"It's been two days. With Tiha's methods, even a strong and strong man can probably spit out something. How can a weak girl survive until now without opening her mouth?" See Tusa Sita There was no response, and he continued on his own. "Wang, I have visited her. With her bones and muscles, it is absolutely impossible to be an assassin, let alone an assassin. With my experience, I am afraid that she does not even have a little bit of kung fu."
"Have you been there?" Not surprised, just curious.Turning his head, he glanced at Unas, and the moment he bowed his head guilty, Tusasita withdrew his gaze, a shallow curve at the corner of his lips, revealing the meaning of eager speculation.
"Yes, I have the guts to go to Tiha's criminal department to see her without the king's consent."
"How's it going?" She couldn't remember the appearance of the girl who disturbed the ceremony after a condescending glance that night.
"Your arrow only hurt her leg, not her life. However, Tiha's torture tools are almost killing her."
"The mouth is too hard, so you have to find someone to pry it open. Tiha is very good at making people speak, so don't worry." With a proud tone, he slowly looked sideways, and glanced casually across the evening courtyard, His eyes stayed on the blooming water lilies in the pool, and he smiled knowingly.
"My lord, I never worry about Tiha's ability. What I worry about is that dead people can't speak."
"Very serious?"
"I'm afraid... it won't last for three days."
"..."
"My lord, let me take over this matter."
"Why are you suddenly interested? Don't you always hate the dirty work of interrogation?"
"I don't like it, but this time is an exception. I have a little interest in this girl."
"How could a mere little girl arouse our Lord Unas's interest?"
"The king made fun of the subject. In fact, the matter that the subject is interested in should be the same as the king."
"Oh?" She raised her eyebrows and smiled.
"That little rhyme."
"Small rumors are very common in the upper reaches of the Nile River, and there is nothing worth being interested in." Her brown eyes suddenly darkened, and the coldness that no one saw was settled in her quiet eyes looking at the road ahead.
"Wang, there is nothing special about the little ballad itself. What I am curious about is that she actually read this little ballad to you when she was about to die. Why did she read this, and... who told her? ?”
"Are you sure you can figure it out?"
"I will try my best."
"Well, if this is the case, then my good wine is not for nothing." She said lazily, her eyes, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling, shone with fragments of fire, very beautiful.
"Yes, thank you, Wang." Nodding his head, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Raising his eyebrows, he smiled lightly, and the corners of his lips hooked the presumptuousness of Ye Huo, which ignited a dull golden light in his eyes, and the bottom of his brown eyes, which was as bright as the sun for a moment, faintly hid a trace of a spot like a beast's pupils. Weird and enchanting.
★★★★★★★★★
What is pain, that is, do you feel like you have been pricked by a needle and are bleeding?So you sprained your foot and can't walk?Did you fall and scrape your knee?
If it was in the past, Xia Yuebai would have said, yes, that is pain.
It's today, but she wants to say, that's not pain, it's tenderness.
There was a sweet smell in his throat, and before he could open his mouth, a handful of warm blood had overflowed from his half-opened lips, and dripped down his chin onto his chest.
The smell of blood filled her breath, and the blood poured into her nasal cavity, preventing the air from entering her body smoothly. Many times, she almost choked on her own blood.
However, what really made Xia Yuebai feel ridiculous was not being choked to death by her own blood, but that death was an extremely extravagant thing for her now.
After several times of coma, this short man with a pair of ghostly eyes can always use some spices to wake himself up.What awaited her was yet another round of torture and bombardment in an incomprehensible language.
Xia Yuebai didn't understand what he said.Similarly, he didn't understand what Xia Yuebai said.
The man was completely irritated after several inquiries to no avail.He twisted off the thumb of her left hand, then the index finger, and then one by one until the little finger...
Amidst her heart-piercing screams, he laughed out of satisfaction, his face twisted into a cluster of fluorescent and flickering will-o'-the-wisps under Xia Yuebai's tear-filled eyes.
For the next time, he continued to yell loudly, Xia Yuebai's mind gradually slipped into the abyss, looking at him with blurred vision, repeatedly explaining and pleading.
Xia Yuebai's answer intensified his anger.
"I've said... ten thousand... times, I... can't understand... your... words." There was another violent cough, and the coughed up blood foam sprayed on the man's face, and the darkness hit like a wave. I don't know how many times, she fainted.
Tiha cursed angrily, raised the blade in his hand, and cut off Xia Yuebai's arm——
"Stop!" Unas stepped into the dungeon and saw such a scene, he shouted sharply.
Shocked, the blade was raised in the air, only an inch away from the slender arm that was riddled with scars. "Lord Unas, why are you here?"
"Give her to me."
"But----"
"This is Wang Ling, do you have any objections?" He raised his eyebrows and said coldly.
"No, no, the villain dare not disobey the order." He bowed immediately, and stepped aside unwillingly.
"Come on, take her to the backyard of Eshke Palace."
"Yes."
"Be careful." The thick smell of blood came into his breath from the dark dungeon, he gave an order to the guards, raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose, turned and stepped forward.

"Yuebai, Luo Lier said he would take you out to sea for fishing. He just bought a boat recently and is waiting for you to come. Come to Italy for summer vacation, mom misses you."
"Yuebai, you should also pay attention to your body when studying. Don't work too hard. Don't stay up late. Girls who stay up late hurt their skin the most. Do you hear me?"
"Xiao Baibai, can you go shopping with me? I found a shop with delicious desserts. Let's go eat."
"Miss Xia, I, Ji Hui, are very loyal. You should feel lucky to have someone like me as your sister!"
"Yuebai, this design is good. This is the place. Why add a screen? What's the point? Tell me about it, and let Dad learn more."
"Yuebai, the manuscript written by my father has been published. Dad is amazing! I received the manuscript fee today, and the two of us are going to have a meal. You can go tonight when I get off work. You can choose the place!"
"Mom and Dad, where are you? I want to go home, I really want...I really want...to go home..."
Messy thoughts, full of warm and painful memories, why are relatives and friends who were within reach yesterday, but now are separated by a huge obstacle that cannot be overcome by life and death...
time and space.
Falling into the gap between time and space, and being drawn into another world, Xia Yuebai didn't know how to face everything in the future...
Time left her 800 years ago; space sent her to ancient Egypt...a distant era and a strange country.
Her life stops here, reverses, and returns to zero.
What happened in the past two days made Xia Yuebai clearly realize that in the eyes of these ancient people, she was an out-and-out dangerous element.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she was shot, became a prisoner, and was tortured. How could these unlucky things have anything to do with her?Who will tell her how lucky she is to be reduced to such a miserable state in a museum theft.
All kinds of pain came from the limbs and bones, and it was hard to tell where the pain was. It seemed that as long as the blood could flow through it, it was screaming crazy and excruciating pain.
The tightly closed corners of the eyes slowly slid down tears, meandering and disappearing into the sweaty hairline, the tightly knit brows were occupied by wave after wave of pain, the breath of death that could not be wafted by the bright lights, in the Her blushing face became more and more intense because of the high fever.
Unas stood by the bed, looking down at Xia Yuebai who was still crying in a coma, he frowned, his handsome face showed inexplicable unbearable.
★★★★★★★★★
Opening his eyes, he was stunned for a moment, and above his head was a gauze curtain of snow-white spilled, as white as pure snow, clean and somewhat dazzling.
He blinked uncomfortably, his throat was dry and bitter, his tongue was stuffed in his mouth like a stiff stone, desperately in need of water.
"Miss, you're awake, that's great! I'll go find Lord Unas, you wait." A cheerful voice rang in my ear, and before Xia Yuebai could clearly see who was speaking, there was already someone beside her. No one was there.
Originally, I wanted to ask for some water to drink, only to find that I was in a place where there was no one else but myself.
Twisting her neck, a simple movement made her frown in pain.After finally seeing everything around her clearly, Xia Yuebai was already sweating profusely from the pain.
This is a small room, clean and tidy, with a cabinet by the window, a table and a few chairs opposite the bed, and a small low table like a coffee table at the head of the bed.
There were clay pots and cups on the small table, guessing that there should be thirst-quenching water in them, Xia Yuebai tried to move her arm, a heart-pounding pain came from her arm, and the huge pain repelled her attempt to grab the cup like lightning motivation.
Lying resignedly, her eyelids became heavy again, but her dry body, which was extremely dehydrated, made it impossible for her to fall asleep.
There was movement in the room, as if someone was coming, Xia Yuebai tried hard to open his eyes, and looked at a man and a woman walking towards the bed.
"Lord Unas, look, she's awake." The girl who spoke looked very young, happily looking at the tall man beside her, completely unaware of Xia Yuebai's pitiful gaze looking at the kettle again.
With her mouth half open, she wanted to tell them that she needed to drink water, but she couldn't make a sound from her parched throat, Xia Yuebai frowned angrily.
"Penny, give her water." The man noticed Xia Yuebai's anxious gaze, and he said to Petunia, then he went to the square table, picked up a chair, placed it next to the bed, and sat down.
Drinking the water that Penny fed to her mouth, gulping down the water with a hint of sweetness, Xia Yuebai drank two glasses of water in one go, just like the thirsty land that hadn't seen rain in months.
Finally, he could feel the existence of his tongue, and when the cold water flowed into his stomach, his sanity gradually became clear.
"Aren't you thirsty?" Unas sat on the chair with his legs crossed, his eyes full of smiles, and there was a trace of a teasing smile.
She didn't know what he was talking about, but from the young man's smile, she could tell the kind eyes. Xia Yuebai thought for a while before saying, "I'm sorry, I really don't understand what you're saying."
Frowning, leaning on his elbow with one hand, he seemed to be thinking, or just looking at Xia Yuebai.After a while, Unas slowed down and said, "My name is Unas, what's your name?"
Tired, not the body, but the heart.Regarding the status quo that the chicken and the duck talked about, Xia Yuebai was only tired and scared, unable to communicate with words, which made her become the current virtue, unable to save herself in a dangerous situation, it really made people crazy.
"I..." hesitated and sighed.
Seeing her anxiety and powerlessness, Unas was almost sure that this girl couldn't understand their language at all. Seeing her pale face because of panic and timidity, it definitely didn't look like she was pretending.
"Don't be afraid, rest well, I'll come see you tomorrow." Standing up, he said to Petunia, "Take good care of her, and come to me if you need anything."
"Yes, Lord Unas." Petunia bowed and responded respectfully.
Looking at Unas who disappeared by the door, Xia Yuebai was stunned for a moment... Is this the end?
There was no aggressive cursing, no terrible instruments of torture, only a smile, and two or three words that were not painful, and he just left so easily.
Trance, doubt, uneasiness.
"Miss, you can sleep for a while, and call me if you need it." Regardless of whether Xia Yuebai understood or not, Petunia said to herself, and tucked the blanket tightly for her, carefully avoiding her injured leg.
He really wanted to understand the current situation, but the language barrier between them made Xia Yuebai's thoughts come to nothing.Thick tiredness attacked the drowsy brain, and the eyelids moved. Although the brain was still chaotic, the body had gradually fallen into a deep sleep.
★★★★★★★★★
In the next few days, Petunia took good care of her. Even though they couldn't speak the language, the two could communicate with simple gestures. However, Xia Yuebai could only use the right hand with the unbroken finger.
Penny became Xia Yuebai's first teacher in this new world. She taught her to read simple words. In just ten days, Xia Yuebai had already mastered how to say hello, and things like water, food, weather, etc. Words, such a rapid learning ability, rely on her brain with a good memory, her natural ability to imitate language, and her instinctive drive to survive in a crisis.
The young man named Unas came almost every day, sometimes bringing a doctor to see her to check her injuries.
Although he didn't understand what the doctor said to him, Xia Yuebai guessed from his gradually relaxed brows that he was recovering from his injuries. Except that his left hand was still wrapped in a thick cloth, and the condition of his bones could not be confirmed, other traumas were all in his hands. Under the medical treatment of more than 3000 years ago, it gradually improved.
The arrow wound on her leg healed relatively slowly. The calf pierced by an arrow was covered with pungent herbal medicine. Every time Petunia changed the medicine for her, Xia Yuebai couldn't help staring at the clotting black blood. The whole body felt cold from the wound... The sticky green herbs, a large piece of black and purple skin, and the red, swollen and turned flesh made my heart jump, and I felt a little nauseous.
Every evening or afternoon, that handsome man with short brown hair would appear in the room with a warm smile. According to Xia Yuebai's observation, Unas was probably a man of noble birth, because the doctor and Penny They would all bow and salute him with respectful and submissive expressions.
In a society of slavery, people's ranks are extremely strict, and no disrespect can be tolerated. From this, it is not difficult to judge Unas's status.
Time is gradually recovering from the scars on the body, and more than ten days have passed without the aid of modern tools. Calculating the time has become extremely simple. You only need to remember that the sun rises and sets, and the time of day Time passed by in a hurry, a bit poetic, a bit leisurely.
The more languages he mastered, the more he could communicate with them. He still couldn't speak long and complicated sentences, but Xia Yuebai could express his meaning quite satisfactorily just by combining a few words.
Knowing the era he lived in from Unas, who would have imagined that he was the owner of the golden coffin and armor... In the era of Tusahita I, the third pharaoh of the No.12 dynasty of ancient Egypt , more than 800 years ago.
Knowing that the person who shot him that day was the first queen in the history of ancient Egypt, it was no wonder that when he read that inscription, Tusahita, who was holding a bow and arrow, let her go.
Being able to engrave that paragraph of text in his own golden coffin is enough to prove that the poetic and song-like sentence has an important significance that cannot be ignored for Tusahita.
Using the ancient Egyptian that he can speak together, Unas learned of her bizarre experience. The handsome face with a slightly Middle Eastern taste changed a little quickly from shocked to puzzled expression.
After a long silence, his smile froze, he said a few soothing words, got up and left the room.
Xia Yuebai leaned on the bed, recalling that when Unas left that day, the figure he walked to the door suddenly stopped, turned to look at her, pondered for a moment, and said in a heavy tone: "If what you said, It's all fabricated lies, and you will end badly. If what you say is true, then we must be proven."
Proof... How to prove that she did not lie, there is no witness, no physical evidence, only her weird and peculiar narrative.
With a long sigh, he leaned weakly against the head of the bed, tilted his head and looked at the half-open window, the dazzling sunlight fell into the room by the window, and various strange but fragrant smells were brought by the breeze. Everything was so strange, Xia Yuebai didn't know how to return to her time and space.
He sighed again, quietly watching the bright light by the window, with a pair of black eyes full of endless regret.
The author has something to say: the rare winter sun makes my hair explode, and I want to sleep limply. . . . .Go for a run at night, there are so few people running at night in winter, alas. .The long-legged ladies are too afraid of the cold to run.

chapter Five
The red nails were as bright as blood, and the smooth surface of the nails reflected the shattered flames. His slender fingers held a transparent crystal cup. finger.Such a warm color, but because of the too pale hand, it showed a kind of cold and hopeless beauty.
"She's already here." The casual words were spoken in a gentle and pleasant voice.
The young man standing to one side smiled unexpectedly. "real?"
Leaning against the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, her slender figure is wrapped in a water-blue long skirt, like a mermaid shining in crystal-clear water, with a curly chestnut wavy long hair scraping the velvety pink ears with the wind, Like a lingering and affectionate lover whispering intoxicating whispers in the ears.
The dreamlike beauty, but at the moment when the woman raised her head and poured a glass of wine into her throat, it was suddenly covered with a layer of red light invisible to the naked eye, and a ball of fire was bursting from her water-blue back, like the wind. spread around. "Alnis tried so hard, but still failed to hide her well. Finally, the gods of Egypt can watch with their own eyes how that dazzling country by the Nile River turns into a handful of yellow sand."
"Your Highness, I immediately send someone to Egypt to capture her." The man nodded and was about to turn around when the woman raised the empty crystal cup and called to stop him.
"No need."
"Your Highness?" Reaching out to take the empty cup from the woman, the man showed doubts.
With her face slightly tilted, facing the hot sun outside the window, she slowly turned her thin white neck. The scorching sun fell on her skin, and the scorching heat couldn't blend into her cold breath. With a tired sigh, she said softly: " I'll go myself."
I was a little surprised that the person who had not stepped out of this palace for many years actually said that he was going to far away Egypt. "This...will you be abrupt when you go to Egypt? It will be troublesome if you arouse Tusasita's suspicion, and Arnis, the high priest with a nose that is sharper than a dog, is too difficult to deal with."
"The Nile River is about to flood, and the Egyptian New Year is coming soon. At that time every year, thousands of people will pour into Thebes to worship their mother river. Let's join in the fun." The strands of hair were tied and untied, looking at the maids who were playing in the water by the courtyard pool, the glistening water droplets covered those young and delicate faces, and the crisp and sweet laughter was like a moving tune. "Arhan, send a letter to Egypt, saying that Luya and I are going to Egypt to participate in their New Year."
Nodding his head, he made a rough estimate secretly, even if he set off immediately to reach Egypt, it would take two months at the fastest, and the New Year's ceremony would definitely not be able to catch up.Using this as an excuse may be a bit far-fetched. "Yes, I'm going to prepare now. However, even if we leave now, it won't be in time for the New Year."
"It doesn't matter, just find a name to go there. Arhan, you hurry up and prepare, and leave the day after tomorrow."
"Yes, the king and Princess Luya, should I say it, or you?"
After thinking for a moment, she turned her face slightly, squinted at the man behind her from the corner of her eyes, a ray of sunlight pierced through the dark red eyes, the enchanting color of intoxication, condensed and gorgeous, she said slowly: "Brother Wang, I will go and say, Go and tell Luya, she has long wanted to go to Egypt, she must be very happy now."
"Yes." Bowing to salute, Yarhan's lips flashed a pleasant smile.
★★★★★★★★★
Petunia ran in in a panic, and while helping Xia Yuebai to get up, she said nervously: "Miss Xia, pack up quickly, the king wants to see you."
"Who?" What was slow was not her hearing, but her thinking.
"My lord... my lord wants to see you. The guard who came to pick you up is almost outside the courtyard. This servant will help you wash up." Because Xia Yuebai has been bedridden and recuperated, she doesn't even have a decent skirt. What she is wearing at the moment is A plain white dress, this kind of dress can barely be described as simple and clean.
However, if you dress like this to meet the queen of Egypt, it would be disrespectful if you say it lightly, and it would be contemptuous of the kingship if you said it seriously.
Unexpectedly, Tusasita summoned Xia Yuebai suddenly, and it was too late to prepare a decent dress. Penny carefully combed Xia Yuebai's waist-length black hair with a wooden comb. She looked outside the door from time to time, and instructed: "Miss Xia, please remember that you must kneel down when you see the king. No matter what the king asks, you must answer carefully. You can't ask the king questions, you understand?"
Having been with Xia Yuebai for more than a month, Penny has long been used to all kinds of strange words and deeds of this foreign girl... She always has endless questions and is full of curiosity about everything. For the first time, Xia Yuebai When she saw the bread, she was astonished as if seeing a pile of gold; her attitude towards herself was completely indistinguishable from master and servant, and she still remembered that she dragged herself to eat together, and Petunia was almost scared to death by her; Xia Yuebai Half of the time is spent in a daze, and the other half of the time is just drawing and drawing on paper, drawing some strange shapes that are beautiful but can't tell what they are.
Xia Yuebai's completely different behavior made Petunia feel amazed and amazed, but also quite worried. She was simply worried that it would be difficult for such a special girl to integrate into the eyes of others.
"Do you have to kneel?" She had never kneeled once in her life, and now she was asked to kneel down to an antique 800 years ago, really... reluctant.
He rolled his eyes, became angry, and his tone became affirmative. "Definitely, absolutely, don't forget."
"I see." Helpless, it is right to do as the Romans do.
There was movement in the courtyard, the door was pushed open, and two guards stood outside the door, speaking expressionlessly, motioning for Xia Yuebai to follow them.
Helping Xia Yuebai to stand up, Petunia simply straightened the folds of her skirt, put it next to her ear, and whispered again. "Miss Xia, don't make Wang angry, be careful with what you say."
Looking at Penny with a nervous face, she was like a young mother sending her child to school on the first day, except that she didn't have any pride or joy except anxiety.
Smiling and nodding, he said softly, "Understood, don't worry."
Watching Xia Yuebai disappear out of the courtyard with the guards, Penny twisted her skirt tightly with her fingers, stretched her neck and looked at the empty corridor, sighed and turned around and walked into the small courtyard.
★★★★★★★★★
The leg injury doesn’t affect walking anymore, it’s just that after walking for a long time, it’s still a little sore. I don’t know where they are going to take themselves. This palace, which was built thousands of years ago, is more magnificent than I imagined… …
Row upon row of palaces, decorated with gold and all kinds of jewels, are resplendent and magnificent. The gold area embedded on the wall alone makes people dare not guess how rich this ancient country is. This kind of things that are regarded as rare metals by modern people, However, the ancient Egyptians squandered it like a stone, and the gold objects and decorations that can be seen everywhere cannot be described as extravagant.
Stepping on the smooth and flat marble floor under your feet, it looks like countless winding white rivers, flowing vertically and horizontally among the towering stone pillars, adding a pure and transcendent beauty to this extremely luxurious palace...
The patchwork and charming scenery, just when you glance up at random, any corner you come to casually, is breathtakingly beautiful, so beautiful that it makes people linger.
Skip those exquisite and unique murals, skip those lifelike statues standing outside the corridor, skip those pavilions located in the middle of the green water, skip the green plants covering the courtyard, just look at the snowflake stones in front of you. The carefully carved, hollowed-out staircase hanging in the air will make people fall in love with this place madly.
Looking at everything dazedly, I felt like I was about to suffocate. It was too beautiful, too dreamy, and completely unrealistic.
"Go in." Xia Yuebai didn't come back to his senses until the guard sounded a harsh reminder beside him.
Looking up, her astonished eyes revealed her timidity for a moment, and she stared blankly at the huge monster in front of her... A stone gate about the size of an ancient city gate stood in the abundant sunlight, with a golden light that defied all living beings, overlooking it. look at yourself.
Looking around, the impatient expression on the guard's face came into view. Xia Yuebai took a deep breath, lifted her skirt, and stepped into the one-foot-high threshold. The hot summer air behind him was blown away, and even the frantic heartbeat was blown away.
Lowering her head, she slowly walked into the hall, her flickering eyes looked around in a panic, when a familiar figure bumped into the bottom of her black eyes, Xia Yuebai's nervous nerves skipped a bit of happiness.
Unas smiled at her, then turned his head and looked ahead.
Following his line of sight, his eyes startled...
On dozens of white steps 20 meters away, there is a huge statue towering above the sky, at least more than 30 meters by visual inspection. Even people who don’t understand Egyptian history will know that it is the stone statue of the sun god "Rui" worshiped by the Egyptians. .
In front of the stone statue, the golden throne is the place that makes people feel bright.
Dressed in white, with a simple golden crown, the figure leaning casually on the back of the chair is lazy, idle, soaked in dazzling arrogance, and swaying a reckless and unruly aura.
Xia Yuebai didn't know if Tusahita was considered a beauty in ancient Egypt, but from the modern people's aesthetic point of view, she can definitely be called a beautiful woman with outstanding temperament...
The deep eyes traced the black eyeliner unique to the ancient Egyptians, and the deliberately elongated eyeliner made the long and narrow eyes even more determined.The high and straight bridge of the nose has vaguely European features.With a slightly darker wheat complexion, only long-term outdoor sports can lead to such a healthy and radiant complexion.
If one had to pick out a flaw for her, it might be her slightly thick lips, but such a lip shape has been regarded as a symbol of sex appeal by modern people.
The seemingly invisible smiling face on the throne and the slightly raised lip line concealed an inexplicable indifference.
Unexpectedly, the ancient Egyptians located at the junction of Africa and Asia possessed such enviable facial features mixed with European characteristics, or that only the good genes of the royal family could create such an elegant and noble person.
The beauty of Tusasita is neither bewitching nor glamorous, but reveals a majestic and majestic magic, like a lonely golden wind, too obstinate and too dazzling.
She was born to be a king, just sitting quietly like that already made people feel a powerful and inescapable pressure, like a silent wave of air overwhelming the sky.
It also contains the scrutiny of contemplation, which comes from the young queen on the throne.
Tusasita looked at the foreign girl under the steps, and Unas said she was 19 years old.Take a closer look, it seems that the development of the 15-year-old Egyptian girl is not yet mature. I really don’t know what the world she said feeds on. An adult woman can be so thin that it can be blown away by the breeze. appearance.
Black eyes, clean and bright, reminiscent of the stars above the Nile River on a moonlit night, shining light and clear.
However, her face was too pale, whether it was from fear or what was going on, there was almost no trace of blood on that palm-sized face.
The wind blowing from outside the temple pulled up a few strands of long hair and flew over Xia Yuebai's arms, swaying thousands of soft black shadows, causing Tusasita to look away from her face and stare at those innocent people. Lily fluttering hair.For a moment, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he remained silent.
Unas coughed lightly, reminding Xia Yuebai, who was staring blankly at the throne, to salute, what was this silly girl looking at, how could she stare at the Egyptian pharaoh like this.
Suddenly, receiving the warning gaze from Unas, Xia Yuebai immediately realized his gaffe, lowered his head, and knelt down.
"Your Majesty." She spoke in ancient Egyptian, her voice neither humble nor overbearing.
"Get up." He moved his body, resting his elbow on the armrest, resting his chin on his left hand, a faint light flashed across his brown eyes.
"Your name is Xia Yuebai?"
"Yes."
"How's the injury?"
"It's much better, thank you... Wang for your concern." After thinking about it, I didn't know what to call her.In modern times, everyone is used to calling each other by their first names, which is definitely not the case here, not to mention that this stern woman is the king of a country.There should be nothing wrong with calling her "King" after Unas called her.
"Unas has already told me about you, is it true?"
