Chapter 15: The Old Lady of Magala (Part II)
"Before returning to Italy, His Excellency Crassus greedily sacked the city of Magara, which was the richest port here, and the master of Vibius, who had taken him in, was implicated and ostracized by it, and the property here could not be sustained, and he left here a long time ago, as to where he went" The old woman looked up, as if she were caught in a long memory, and as if she were hanging on the appetite of Lipida, "Some say he went to Africa, others say he went to the city of Rome. ”
"Then why did he take only your sister!" Li Bida hurried the pace of questioning, he seemed to feel something faintly, especially after seeing the appearance of the old and young Velia, he felt very familiar, he couldn't help but have a little correlation picture in his heart about all the secrets, and many words were jammed in his mouth, wanting to say it but having to swallow it hard.
This is his own big secret, and it is the distress that has haunted him for more than twenty years.
This kind of inside story, Li Xilia in the Stove Temple and in private occasions before, finally revealed him a little, but he was still not satisfied, that is, why he came to this world, in this era, sometimes Li Bida himself will laugh at himself and say, "Since you have crossed over, don't care so much." ”
But in the end, I still couldn't convince myself.
It wasn't until now, when he happened to see Velia, that he felt that time and fate had played a joke on him - that person was about seven years younger than him when he first came to Rome, and he was arguably younger than Adiana, and now he had also succeeded Richilia as the chief virgin of the Temple of Vesta, and it was no wonder that many people in Rome rumored that she was the illegitimate daughter of Crassus and Richilia. Now it seems that the problem is not so simple. Whose child is she? As for when he was the Holy Treasurer. The man in black who often appears in the middle, is it, or is it?
Li Bida held his head a little confused, and then slowly lay down on the back of the chair, and little Veria was a little surprised to hold the high priest's wrist, "Nobleman, if you don't dislike it, just rest here for a while, don't you want to go and see the seaside cave where Crassus hid back then?" Wait until you're done resting. Let my granddaughter take you there. ”
Afterwards, he got up, and under the guidance of little Willia, came to the back room of the house, and pushed the door open and entered, and the walls and floors were made of logs and wire, raised several Roman feet from the ground, and cut off from the heat and humidity outside and below, very mild and cool, and the inside was full of hay. Bunches of hay also hung from the beams, waving leisurely back and forth in the breeze from the window. Li Bida took off his cloak, made a cover, and leaned on the haystack, little Veria bit her lip, she must have received an "order" from her grandmother, to take off the shoes on her feet for the high priest - although before the expedition, many people in the Senate pampered Li Bida to enhance his glory and put on purple or red boots, just like Caesar in his life - but they were all rejected by Li Bida either sternly or politely, Caesar's example, he did not want to repeat the mistakes of the past, the framework left by the modern republic is a bondage, But a certain kind of Cheng dù is also protection.
But little Veria was obviously a little nervous, or she had not served a real nobleman before, and when she pulled the high priest's shoes, she used her strength before the button was unfastened, and as a result, the skin of Li Bida's feet was suddenly torn, and the little girl was so frightened that she held the shoes in her hands and stayed in place and did not dare to speak. He laughed and said to her, "I have come from the city of Rome, and if I am in the villa of Campeña, a Greek slave man in silk clothes and garlands will slowly and gently take off my shoes and anoint me, and help me anoint me, then I will not be used to it!" Maybe that's it, a little peasant girl who looks so petite but has a lot of strength wants to tear my legs off together, and that's why she applauds. At this moment, little Veria also laughed, and then she stood up a little shyly, and began to say, "Distant nobleman, please have mercy on me, remember that I am still a virgin, and do not treat me as a slave girl, I am already a free man in my generation." Then he began to undress downward, revealing a tight and lovely girl's body, and her firm and flat lower abdomen was trembling nervously, ready to endure the flow of pleasure.
That's right, little Veria's skin is fair under her clothes, and the slightly black color of her face is really as Li Bida judged, not born, but has been raised in the garden and mountains for a long time.
It seems that this is also the order of old Velia, the noble wants someone to arrive somewhere, no matter what the situation, this need, there will always be someone who will "do the friendship of the landlord", even if Crassus was a wanted exile back then, didn't Vibius send old Velia and her sister to the cave where Crassus was hiding?
Maybe on weekdays, Li Bida will "accept" this lovely girl, because Potty and Yulia will never interfere in any way with his "affairs", and only Adiana, who is far away in the world, likes to be jealous, but she is also "far away", so sometimes when the journey is lonely, of course Li Bida will also "contaminate" some young and beautiful girls, some are aristocratic girls who are automatically sent, and some are female slaves in the family. But he never degenerated into the purgatory of sexual sensuality.
Now, especially with someone very godlike, little Veria's appearance, coupled with some speculations in Li Bida's heart, has not been released, so he did not "train" the little girl's interest, so he only comforted her a few words, and said that he could bring her back to Rome after the expedition, arrange a good marriage for her, and gave little Veria a few large silver drachmas as gifts, "Now I feel very tired, at this time you stick to it, but it will make me angry, you go out to see my guards, They're all dark-skinned guys, go and touch their strange weapons, armor, and let me get some rest. The innocent girl happily put on her clothes again, closed the door and went out.
Then, Li Bida's eyelids became more and more difficult, the humming and monotonous sound of bees flying outside the house, the pleasant fragrance of hay, and the intoxication of the mead and wine he had just drunk made him fall asleep quickly.
Then, Li Bida had a long, long dream, the length of which was unbelievable even to himself, some people say that ordinary people dream, in fact, it generally ranges from a few seconds to ten minutes, when the eyes roll, the dream enters the climax, but this dream of the high priest is almost a change of countless scenes.
