Crossing the Hittite goddess

The old king first went to see Qingluan, but Qingluan retreated and saw no guests, so he didn't see him, so what should I do?Hold a grand ceremony and let the gods give a hint, the priest suggested, and the old king happily accepted it.

The Hittites believed in gods, whether they were their own gods or foreign gods, they welcomed them all.According to archaeological discoveries, there are 31 known temples in Hattushash alone.The two most popular local gods among the gods are the sun goddess and the weather god, and these two gods are a pair.There are other great gods and immortals too numerous to enumerate.The gods are closely related to the life of the Hittites. When signing various treaties, the names of the gods are often mentioned first (as a witness of the treaty, equivalent to a just person).In the folk, gods are also highly sought after, and people's words and deeds are supervised by the gods. Whether it is farming and grazing, or going out to fight wars, you must ask these gods in charge for instructions on everything you do.

The Pantheon is dedicated to Qingluan. Without his release, the king cannot enter casually, so the location of the ceremony is chosen in the Great Temple, where the highest ranking Sun Goddess and Weather God are enshrined.

It wasn't until the day of the ceremony that Bai Yi realized that he hadn't spoken to the old king and told him he couldn't send the prince to Egypt.He has already gotten into the disaster of a direct collision once, last time Qingluan helped him block it, so this time he decided to let Karl talk about it.

"Carl, are you going to attend the prince selection ceremony today?"

Karl nodded, except for the heir to the throne, Arnuwanda, who did not need to attend, the other five adult princes needed to attend.

"No, no matter if you go or someone else goes, Egypt will not welcome foreigners to be its leaders. There may be dangers along the way."

Anwar stood up and said: "Master Yali, it's rare for you to think about this level, but since the king and the members of the Pencus Council have discussed it for more than a year, they naturally understand all the situations, including what you said. This kind of thing, but you also said that it is possible, not certain, if successful, Hittite will be unprecedentedly powerful, and this risk is worth taking.”

"Do you think so too?" Bai Yi asked Carl.

Carl nodded with a smile.

"Do you want to go to Egypt?"

Carl shook his head innocently, of course he didn't want to, a fool is going to be a target on the road, he has no life, what do he want fame and fortune for!Besides, a stupid woman who dared to betray her country in order to protect her status would never end well.Being unable to decide one's own destiny is probably the tragedy of being a royal woman!

Seeing Karl shaking his head, Bai Yi heaved a sigh of relief inexplicably.

At the huge entrance of the Great Temple, a half-naked woman is carved on the tall stone pillars on both sides of the door, with an eagle on her arm and a crown in her other hand.In addition, there are reliefs of similar characters on the doors and walls.Standing in front of this magnificent building, Bai Yi couldn't help but open his mouth and look up.The Great Temple covers an area of ​​more than 2 square meters, with more than 200 rooms. There are more than 200 priests and servants who manage the temple, which shows how devout the Hittites believed in the gods.

Bai Yi followed Karl into the temple. What surprised him was that compared to the cold outside, the inside of the temple was very warm, as if entering another season.After walking through the large corridor, entering a super-large atrium, looking up at the dome painted in rich colors, Bai Yi was shocked again.The colors are bright and the color levels are clear. It is said that the artistic attainments of the Hittites are only reflected in the sculptures, but they have not been discovered. Bai Yi stared at the painting on the top and studied it for a long time.After the other princes arrived one after another, they ushered in the king and queen, and Arnuwanda also followed the king.Bai Yi has been here for almost two years, and the queen has only met once, that is, at the last Yashhash Festival of Lawn Tower, she came out to welcome the old king who returned in triumph.Bai Yi couldn't help taking a closer look, she was a charming young woman.Noticing Bai Yi's gaze, she turned her head and smiled.Bai Yi smiled awkwardly and looked away.

After various opening remarks, first worshiped the statues of the sun goddess and the weather god, and then the high priest performed a dance to ask the gods. The exaggerated and weird expressions and the posture of baring teeth and claws were so obvious that I almost got internal injuries. It was so funny. up!Carl touched him with his arm, telling him to pay attention, who knows, he accidentally laughed out loud.The audience was silent, except for the sound of Bai Yi clutching his stomach and trying to hold back a laugh.

"I was really killed by you. If you don't touch me, you obviously hold back. If you touch me, I will ruin my work." Bai Bai complained to Carl in a low voice.

"You are insulting the gods in such a sacred ceremony." The priest who had been fighting against Bai Yi jumped out and pointed at Bai Yi and cursed.

The king took a deep breath.It's him again, it's him again!The old king really didn't like this young man. Even though he made great achievements in Michesh, he had a good impression at the beginning, but after bumping into him several times, he didn't like it no matter how he looked at him. Although he was a simple person who could see through, he was not One that is easy to grasp.

Even if you can ignore him, but if you don't ask, you won't lose face.

"Why did the Angel Yali laugh?" the king asked.

Bai Yi stepped out carefully, "That... just laughing is also showing respect to God!" Bai Yi raised his head and smiled at the king, "Look, you like your servants pulling their faces like this every day. I still face you with a smile like this every day." Bai Yi made two contrasting expressions.Bai Yi felt bitter in his heart, excuses, excuses, quickly think of an excuse.

Senasa on the side laughed, "I like the wrinkled expression, it's so funny." After being crossed by the king, Senasa put away his laughter and stood up obediently.

After that, the entire atrium fell into silence.

Bai Yi glanced at Karl and Becker for help, but the old king obviously didn't want to let this go like this. As soon as Karl took a step forward, the old king swung him back to prevent him from expressing.

Time passed by, and the surroundings were silent and deadlocked.

At this time Becker stood up and knelt down and said, "Dear king, please allow me to say something."

The old king tapped the handle of the seat with his finger. Why was this young man always disturbing the important things?

"As the envoy of God, Lord Yali is the assistant, the Holy Spirit sent by God to comfort, support, guide and protect the believers. Lord Yali just wants to correct the dancing posture of the priest."

"Is that so, envoy?" The old king softened his tone slightly.

The last time he offended the king, and this time he insulted the gods, he dared to say that he was right, so of course Bai Yi quickly responded.

"Then why don't you ask the envoy to dance a correct dance." The old king raised his hand to signal Bai Yi to start.

Bai Yi looked at Carl and Becker with a wrinkled face, and asked in a low voice, "What should I do? How can I dance your god-inviting dance?"

Becker gave him a wink, whatever, you just need one.

Well, whatever.In fact, dancing and so on, as a student of the acting department, is a piece of cake, but a little nervous, Bai Yi's blood supply to his brain is insufficient, and he has forgotten all the dance steps, so he can't use his trump card. The standard posture has completed a whole set of eighth-generation radio gymnastics that must be done in school days and has been done countless times - the times are calling!After finishing it, I made a face-down gesture in a decent way to show my devotion.

Anwar was kicked out by Karl for a few good words, and the matter was prevaricated.

Bai Yi patted his chest, I'm so careful, I have never done this radio gymnastics so standard, thanks to the junior high school physical education teacher! !
