There are footsteps ahead, and even if my guards stand far away, Unas will never stay away from me.
I wiped my face, and sure enough, Unas came over with the leather lamp in his hand.
"Your Majesty, please be careful, it's dark here."
He didn't seem to see my gaffe and embarrassment, and I didn't turn my head away and never talk about it again.
Another leader of the Jianling Tomb also came, and I instructed him that the side room should not be built again, and the door should be sealed. He agreed, and said that it must be done, and then asked me earnestly if I would rest here for one night, although this is the Valley of the Kings, the cluster of mausoleums, but there is also a small palace here.
"No, Memphis still has important things to deal with, so I'll rush back."
"Yes," the man said with a relieved look on his face, and we made a few turns and walked out of the tomb gate.
I turned to look at the stone tomb that was still being built, and said, "Let's go." ”
When I went, I didn't rush too quickly because I took Immorton with me. The return trip was different, the carriage was abandoned, I and a group of guards all rode at a gallop, although I was tired, but for more than ten hours in a row, even if I took the nearest road, when I rushed back to Memphis, I only felt that my legs were hot and painful, and I didn't need to look to know that it must be worn out of the skin. This body really hasn't suffered much, and it is naturally unbearable to ride a horse for a long distance in a row. Memphis heard of my return and rushed over at once.
"Sister, you're too anxious, what if you stay there for one night? Why are you in such a hurry to come back, making yourself so tired? He said, "I'll call the medical officer to show you." ”
His attitude was both gentle and warm, but he did not say a word about the purpose of my trip, nor did he say a word about how Immorton was.
He's really matured.
As for the upcoming ceremony, I just think it's like a ridiculous battle, and it's not like there's no way out of it. But this battle will have to be fought sooner or later.
When Memphis talked about the arrangements for the ceremony, he was so elated that he almost danced with his eyebrows, and asked people to show me the copied plan one by one. I took a bath, lay on the couch with my hair scattered, and almost fell asleep listening to it. He hadn't slept for two days and one night, the words swirling in front of his eyes, and his voice turned into a meaningless hum that lingered in his ears.
Then I fell asleep.
Dark, long, deep sleep, as if to make up for the lack of sleep before, I could feel myself sleeping for a long time, and when I woke up it was late at night, but I didn't know what day it was.
I got up and Tasha came up to meet her, and I turned to look at her.
"Your Majesty Isis."
"I'll just walk around and leave me alone."
"But you haven't eaten in a long time......"
But I feel that my spirit is much better, and sure enough, the human body has a strong ability to repair itself. A long night's sleep is more effective than taking any panacea precious supplement.
"It doesn't matter, if I'm hungry, won't I be able to find something to eat?"
Tasha looked embarrassed, and I said, "Let the guards follow me, but don't get too close," and then looked at her complaining expression, and sighed, "Okay, you can follow too." ”
She immediately smiled: "Yes." ”
I pointed to the west: "Memphis still living in the old place?" ”
"Yes." Tasha said, "Pharaohs and Nephages had different habits, you know. ”
yes, I know. My dead Pharaoh's father could hardly be said to sleep in one place, he had so many women that he changed sleeping places almost every day. Memphis is different. Although I know that he has also pampered slave girls and beautiful women sent by other countries, he never spends the night with them, and he always goes back to his bedchamber to live.
I walked slowly west along the palace wall, long strands of yarn dragging on the ground, but fortunately it was not as full of flowers and trees as the garden on the east side, otherwise it would be inconvenient to drag my clothes so slowly.
I pointed to the row of palace rooms in the back: "Who lives here now?" ”
"It's empty," said Tasha, "you have forgotten that the former pharaoh's favorite concubines have been scattered and have been vacant for a long time. ”
"yes." I forgot: "Go and see." ”
I don't know which pharaoh built these palaces at that time, these palaces are semi-circular, and in the middle is a large hall, which is different from the square and square construction method of Egypt, this palace is round, with a high dome, and is extremely luxurious. Much like the style of the Arab domes of later generations.
In the past, it was all over the place, and the powder was fragrant and drunk. But now it was empty and lonely, and the women were eager to dig up the pillars and the gold ornaments from the walls as they went...... In fact, they did.
It looks dark and empty, I came here a long time ago, and it wasn't like this, it looked almost completely different.
I looked up and saw a beautiful lotus flower painted on the ceiling. Those women couldn't climb that high, so on top of their heads, those ornaments were still preserved.
I tilted my head up like this, looking up seriously, I don't know how long it took, and I felt like I was going to be dizzy.
There seems to be another pattern on the pattern, not like a god statue or a general wall meeting...... I squinted and seemed to see...... There is a pattern of killing and conquest in the gap of the lotus flower.
It's like the kind of spatial perspective that is difficult for people to look at in modern times. On a flat piece of paper, in those messy patterns, I looked at it for a while, but suddenly I realized that it was actually a completely different picture from the first sight.
What is painted on this dome? Hidden in those lotus patterns.
"Light up the sconce." I gave the order, and the guards quickly found the lamps on the wall, and lit them up one by one.
I miscalculated, when the light was not bright just now, I could see some clues, but now that the lights are on, I can't see anything clearly.
Tasha bowed down to follow me and asked, "Your Majesty Isis, what ......is this?" There's not much to see here either. You've been out for a long time, so why don't you go back first. ”
"Hmm......"
Also, there is really no need to figure out those patterns at this time.
