The Nile River floods regularly every year, and then retreats back to the riverbed after flooding. This is a great gift from the gods to Upper and Lower Egypt.

At the beginning of the flooding of the Nile River every year, the Egyptians hold a Valley Feast Festival, which is a festival for the people to remember the dead and express worship and awe to the gods.

After the flooding of the Nile River, the people of upper and lower Egypt, especially the imperial city of Thebes, will hold a more grand festival, the Opate Festival.

Since the specific time of this festival is converted according to the solar calendar, affected by the low tide time of the river and Sirius, this festival is not fixed on a certain day every year.

This year's Opate Festival happened to be No. 30 days after Fu Zhenhong and Saixi Tours were formally witnessed by the Pharaoh in the engagement ceremony in the face of Amon in Karnak.

It also happened to be one month before the wedding of Fu Zhenhong, the envoy of the gods, and Saixi Tours, the guide of the gods.

Although Amenhotep IV said those words to Fu Zhenhong on the stone avenue of the holy sheep statue in the Temple of Amun that night, after that, Amenhotep, as a pharaoh, did not say anything. Looked for him again alone.

Both Amenhotep IV and Fu Zhenhong are very busy, especially on the eve of the Opate Festival, the pharaoh and the envoys need to make corresponding preparations for the festival celebration.

It was precisely because of this that there were very few opportunities for Fu Zhenhong to meet King Amenhotep IV.Even after the two occasionally met on more important sacrificial occasions, Amenhotep IV did not show any untimely intimacy.

On formal occasions, King Amenhotep IV knew how to measure. If you don't look carefully at the deep meaning in his eyes and the fleeting heat, it is difficult to judge from his performance whether he has the ability to deal with Zhenhong. Great interest.

As for Saixi Tours, in order to stay by Fu Zhenhong's side more, except for necessary tasks, he would basically come to Fu Zhenhong and invite him to travel or take a boat.

But because of Fu Zhenhong's status as an envoy of God, in the days when the Orbit Festival was approaching, she did not agree to Saixi Tours' invitation even once.

However, Saixi Tours was not disappointed. Instead, he enthusiastically helped Fu Zhenhong prepare the accessories for the festival.

"Nefertiti, I really look forward to seeing your dazzling appearance on the parade car at the Opate Festival." Saixi Tours said with a smile.

He leaned on the sun and stared at his lover intently. Even though the other person was wearing that thin golden mask at the moment, he still felt that the person he loved was full of fatal attraction everywhere.

"You know, I will still wear this mask that day," Fu Zhenhong said, "Compared to the statues of Pharaoh and Amon, few people will pay attention to the envoy wearing the mask."

"Neftiti, you underestimate your own charm." Cecis Tours shook his head, with a gentle halo in his eyes: "Even if you wear a mask, you can still attract everyone at first sight eyes."

He raised his hand to gently stroke Fu Zhenhong's hair: "Your golden hair is as dazzling as the sun." After finishing speaking, his fingertips slowly moved down, sliding along the golden mask to Fu Zhenhong's eyes , "These blue eyes are as deep and beautiful as the sea."

"Do you know, Nefertiti, even if you are standing there, no one will ignore your existence." Saixi Tours said sincerely.

He will never be stingy with dealing with Zhenhong's perfection, let alone expressing his love for Zhenhong.

"Saixi Tours, do you like me because of me, or because of my status as an angel?" Fu Zhenhong asked him.

After two seconds of silence, Saixi Tours held Fu Zhenhong's hand and said in a gentle voice, "Nefertiti, I don't want to deceive you. I like your status as an envoy, and I prefer you as Nefertiti." Tee itself."

"But if you are not the messenger of God, it will still not affect my liking for you." Saixi Tours said sincerely and affectionately.

Fu Zhenhong said: "You are honest."

Saixi Tours chuckled lightly and said, "You are so smart, lying in front of you will only distance me from you." He paused for a while, and he suddenly thought of something, and he was a little shy when he spoke again. Embarrassed: "I want to approach you with the most sincere sincerity, so that you can relax in getting along with me and give yourself to me."

Fu Zhenhong smiled, but did not answer yes or no.

Saixi Tours did not continue this topic, but lightly stroked Fu Zhenhong's golden mask: "Nefertiti, I hope that the people can see the whole world under your mask on Opate Day. With an unparalleled face, let them know that my lover is a stunning beauty, and I hope that only I can see your beauty, so I am really contradictory." He finished speaking as if sighing.

[Woo, Xiaohong, can a cannon fodder like Saixi Tours survive?He is fine! ] The voice of the weak chicken system rang in Fu Zhenhong's mind.

Fu Zhenhong ignored it.

The weak chicken system continued: [Xiaohong, such a perfect lover, keep him for the future Shura field, isn't he good? ]

Fu Zhenhong still ignored the weak chicken system. As time went by, the San'er system, which was full of yellow waste, seemed to become more and more emotional.

The death of Secy Tours was inevitable.

As for the perfection that the weak chicken system said, Fu Zhenhong was noncommittal.

No one is perfect.

Saixi Tours is gentle, but too gentle, in some cases, is not necessarily good, especially his kindness is not only for one person.

Fu Zhenhong didn't explain this to the weak chicken system.

However, the second half of the weak chicken system's sentence gave him some ideas.In the future, it would be a good way to use Saixi Tours to intensify the conflict between Tianxuan.

But at this stage, Fu Zhenhong didn't have a very specific plan for this.

At present, his mind is still more focused on the annual Opate Festival.

After all, Opet is a big festival in Egypt, comparable to the Sun Festival held in the temples of Abu Simbel.

On the day of the Opet Festival, everyone in Upper and Lower Egypt will parade behind the chariot of the golden ship where the Pharaoh and the statue of Amun stayed. to Luxor Temple.

As the envoy of God, Fu Zhenhong, together with the high priest Kale, would stand on the long parade car where the pharaoh was staying, and give two divinations to the lucky ones chosen by the pharaoh who was the supreme ruler of Egypt.

******

The busy time flies by.

Soon, Upper and Lower Egypt ushered in this grand Opate Festival.

On this day, the sun had just risen from the east bank of the Nile, and the residents of Egypt had already dressed in the most gorgeous and decent robes they owned, and came to the gate of the Karnak Temple full of energy. forward.

With awe and anticipation, they stood neatly on both sides of the road full of rams and sphinxes, welcoming this solemn celebration.

The great statues of Amun were carried out of the temple of Karnak by uniformly costumed slaves of the prime of life, who placed them in an elaborate golden ship, which was then lifted onto a huge long plank On the tour bus.

The son of God Amun—Pharaoh Amenhotep IV, dressed in luxurious costumes made of gold ornaments, stood at the forefront of the longboard cruise.

The golden crown on his head exudes a majestic and inviolable dazzling halo in the sun, and the handsome silhouette is like the fiery sun god Amon.

The 15-year-old young pharaoh is in the period of rapid physical growth. In just one month, Amenhotep IV has grown a few inches taller, and his body has become more upright. He already has a vigorous body like a cheetah. posture.

He stood on a mat made of red agate and gold. The golden boat representing the statue of Amon, the highest god of Egypt, was on his right side, and on his left shoulder, a full body The black eagle was standing there.

This eagle has feathers as black as the night, with huge wings half-hanging on both sides of its body, and its ruby-like eagle eyes reveal a sharp and compelling nobility.

After Amenhotep IV appeared with this eagle, he was as dazzling as the sun god, even more attractive than the huge statue of Amon that people looked up to.

"Great God Amon! Great Son of God, His Majesty Pharaoh Amenhotep!"

Someone in the crowd yelled.

As this person took the lead, the others also cheered. They shouted Pharaoh Amenhotep IV and the sun god Amon with passionate enthusiasm.

"Boom——" the bell of the bronze drum rang at this moment.

This is the signal for the march.

The bronze drum will be struck three times in total, with an interval of 10 minutes between each time.The first ringing represents an early warning that the Opate Festival ceremony is about to begin, and everyone should keep quiet.

The second ringing represents the appearance of Kale, the high priest of Amun, and the messenger of God.

And the last ringing means that the parade ceremony is just beginning.

At this time, after the first sound of the bronze drum, the people who were still cheering suddenly shut down. They all kept quiet, waiting for the arrival of the high priest and the envoy.

They have long been curious about Nefertiti, the messenger of God, especially those who came here from other places in Egypt.

The rumors among the people living in Thebes made them have great expectations for Nefertiti's appearance. They wanted to see how dazzling the rumored sea-like eyes and sunshine-like blond hair were. .

At this moment, the envoy, who was expected by everyone, was taking his final bath in the holy lake of the Karnak Temple.

The holy lake in the temple is a place for priests to bathe and purify themselves. Egypt attaches great importance to sacrifices. Large-scale festivals such as the Opet Festival require priests to strictly clean themselves.

Fu Zhenhong was not a priest, but as a messenger sent by God, his identity and status far surpassed that of a priest.Among the priests, only the high priest Kale can be compared with him.

Of course, this only refers to the influence of the two people among the people.In terms of status and power, the high priest is much higher than Fu Zhenhong, who is an envoy of the gods.

Fu Zhenhong wanted to appear in the sight of the public together with the high priest. He had a distinguished status, and the holy lake where he bathed was also separated from other priests.

The water in the holy lake is at a constant temperature, and sunlight is natural heat. Fu Zhenhong didn't ask the maids to serve him. He likes to be quiet and doesn't want anyone to disturb him, so he asked them to wait outside the garden of the holy lake, and no other maids were allowed to wait on him. people come in.

But obviously, his words did not impress the maids.

Because when Fu Zhenhong quickly finished washing and was about to get up, there was a slight rustling sound from the position behind him on the right.

Someone approached here, just ten meters away from him.
