Tracing back to history, no matter which dynasty, the newly crowned king will always sacrifice to the gods, Ah Zhai found that this is not only in China but also in Babylon, and he flipped through the previous clay tablets and found that the earliest records could even be consulted before the Assyrian Dynasty, for this temple prepared a variety of sacrificial utensils early, in order not to have accidents in the ceremony, Ah Zhai has been studying again and again in the past few days, and he didn't care about being stabbed in the back by Elishya before, and came to ask for advice several times, I don't know if it was guilt or something else, The old man became more and more old, and he conscientiously taught his disciples over and over again his experience over the years, as if he wanted to instill his life's knowledge thoroughly.

The night before the sacrifice, he bathed in the lake in front of the shrine to wash away his filth, then applied sesame oil, etc., changed into a new snow-white robe, and prayed alone in the temple for a night, during which he did not eat or drink.

The next morning, the costumed king entered the Seven Yao Pagoda from the pilgrimage avenue, lined with subjects who had come to watch the ceremony, cheering and throwing flowers to their beloved king.

Unlike the first visit to the Maduk Temple, the king goes directly to the Seven Yao Pagoda, where they receive the will of the gods at the Maduk Temple at the top of the tower, and then go to the main hall of the temple to perform the sacrament ceremony.

When Nebuchadnezzar pushed open the door of the temple and walked in, he saw the young man standing in front of the statue, and the wind on the top of the tower was stronger, blowing his clothes and hunting, and for a moment Nebuchadnezzar thought that his teacher was going to ride the wind back to the sky, and at that moment his heart almost shrunk.

"Venerable Marduk,

I am your pious servant,

The achievements of the past have been reduced to ashes,

New glory is coming,

I beseech you,

O God of Mercy,

I hope you will send down an oracle,

Inform your people,

Who will inherit your wisdom, and your riches, and your glory,

Grant him the supreme authority in this world. ”

The house sang the praises over and over again according to the process written down earlier, and then motioned to the servants who followed Nebuchadnezzar to offer the prepared sacrifices, including flowers and fruits, livestock such as lambs, calves, and horses, wine, and crops such as wheat and barley, and motioned Nebuchadnezzar to come forward and pray.

When the king had finished praying, all the servants withdrew from the temple gate, drew the curtains, lit incense, and unfastened his clothes under the stunned gaze of the young man.

……

When he woke up again, Nebuchadnezzar found himself kneeling at the feet of the idol of Marduk, the air filled with the fragrance of Yasi's tea, and he remembered that he had a very beautiful dream, unlike before, he could even touch the man's body, kiss the other's sweet lips, gnaw at the other's body, their limbs were intertwined and joined together in the most intimate way in the world, like lovers who had been with him for many years.

"Are you awake?" The temple suddenly opened from the outside, and the young man stood in the doorway, wearing a set of gorgeous and intricate magic robes, although they were still snow-white, but they were embroidered with silver threads and patterns, reflecting various patterns in the sunlight.

“…… Yes. Nebuchadnezzar licked his lips and stood up.

"It's almost time, it's time to go to the main hall for communion." Ah Zhai commanded his servants to come forward and change the young man into a more gorgeous dress, and then personally handed over the scepter to the other party.

"Venerable Marduk,

As his humble servant who walks in the world,

Listen earnestly and proclaim His will,

Young King,

Grant you wisdom, riches, and glory,

Your deeds will be immortalized. ”

Nebuchadnezzar respectfully took the scepter from the young man's hand, and his fingertips touched, and he suddenly felt as if he were still in a dream.

After the authorization ceremony, the chief priest led the group from the Seven Yao Pagoda to the main hall of the Maduk Temple.

The main hall has already been set up by servants here.

All the way through, it was decorated with a variety of bright flowers, and in recent years, because the chief priest Jin loved the Yashima flower, he was favored by the nobles of Babylon, so that it appeared in such a sacrifice ceremony.

In the vast hall, hundreds of long tables are lined up, on which a variety of delicacies are placed, including fresh lamb, roasted suckling pig crispy on the outside and crispy on the inside, and stewed beef...... The most important thing was the sweet wine, the richly dressed nobles with wine glasses in their hands, the food distributed to them by the lower monks of the temple, and even many envoys from the vassal countries, who brought large sums of wealth and even slaves to congratulate Nebuchadnezzar on his coronation.

He did not preside over the sacrament, he gave the whole ceremony to Elishya, and he retreated to the special residence of the temple that had been vacated for him, which was a small courtyard at the back of the temple, very close but the door was very open and shady, he did not expect that he had raised a wolf cub, and the joy and love in the temple almost made his whole body fall apart, so that he fell asleep almost as soon as he touched the bed.

It was already evening when Ah Zhai opened his eyes, and it was pouring light rain outside, Ah Zhai got out of the quilt, touched his forehead, and then changed into the roll clothes he wore in Su Ri and walked to the porch to watch the rain.

It was not the first time he had seen Babylon in the rain, but every time it always made him feel new, if Babylon under the sun was a magnificent capital, then Babylon in the mist softened the lines, although in fact it did not rain much in Babylon.

Quietly watching and listening to the raindrops falling on the asphalt ground, falling on the white pine gate, falling on the special paper-burning wall tiles - all the previous things seemed to be washed clean by this light rain, he looked up at the sky, after the rain stopped, the sun was also hanging in the air, a rainbow appeared in the sky, and it seemed to be hanging on the Qiyao Pagoda from a distance, Ah Zhai suddenly itched his hands, he looked quietly for a long time, thinking that he must draw this scenery down.

"Master." The sacrifice during the day was complete, and seeing that his master had not returned, Uru guessed that he should have stayed in his dwelling next to the temple, so he went out with his cloak. This generous young man has now grown into a mature and sophisticated businessman, but in essence he is still the honest young man he was when he first met, perhaps because he witnessed the dismal love of Mersidis, he was not married, he had no children, even if his master once asked him, but he always chose to stay with his master and serve him wholeheartedly.

"Uru, what about Daniel? Did he finish his homework today? Ah Zhai took the azure cloak from Uru's hand, in fact, he didn't feel that he needed to wear this thing, but for the sake of his illness for a long time, he decided to treat himself better.

"The little master has completed today's homework according to the previous practice." After confirming that the child was accepted as a disciple by the master, Ulu quickly changed his name, and although Ah Zhai hesitated, he acquiesced when he thought that it was the practice of this world.

The master and servant are not far from the temple is the pilgrimage road, and the ferrymen who come and go all know the respected chief priest, God knows that in order to talk to the gentle and beautiful chief priest (especially everyone knows that he is very close to the people), in recent years, there have been many more women in the boat here, and even many young girls, especially when the Yasim flowers bloom, they wear clean clothes every day, and wear garlands made of Yasim flowers and roses, tulips and other flowers, and on their wrists and necks are also hung with threads of Yassi. They looked forward to the day when they would be favored by the priest as told in the story of the bard, but as time went by, they also understood that although the priest was modest, he really didn't have the slightest idea about them, but over time, this kind of dress became a scene in the city of Babylon.

"Please wait!"

This time, the shiplady had married and had two children, but many years ago she was one of those girls who expected to be favored by the priest, so after the priestess took his slaves on board, she heard someone calling, especially a young girl, and the boatwoman couldn't help but laugh in her heart, lo and behold, these are all methods that have been used.

It was a very beautiful girl, dressed in crimson Chunik, with her hair loosely tied up, with a jade bracelet on her hand, her facial features were soft and delicate, especially a pair of eyes, round and big, and there was an ancient book that described the beauty of looking forward to Shenfei - it was Xu Mu, or Isita, the heroine of this world.

"Wait a little bit for her." Ah Zhai called the boat lady who wanted to drive the boat, and the master and servant waited quietly for the girl to run over.

"Wow - it's a male god!" Coming to this world for more than a year, although he has been on the battlefield before, Xu Mu's temperament has not changed much, in the end, she is a girl who has hardly suffered hardships, and she still retains the simplicity and sloppiness of her student days.

"You're Isita?" Although it's a fellow countryman, Ah Zhai doesn't have the idea of recognizing a girl at all.

"Yes, how do you know?" Hearing the male god call out his name, Xu Mu couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise.

"I've heard Ashur say that I should have met you at the palace a month ago, but I'm sorry for the delay due to my health." The male god is not only good-looking, but also has a super good temper, and he is almost dizzy~ The villain in Xu Mu's heart is dancing happily.

"To make it official, I'm Jin, the chief priest of the Maduk Temple." Ah Zhai slightly hooked the corners of her lips, and half of her body was soaked in a halo, as if the true god had descended into the world, and this scene was reflected in the girl's eyes, making her blush suddenly.
