What should I say?
Our Egyptian officials are really efficient! I thought I was going to go to Thebes with such an old man, and I could learn astronomy with him on the way, stargazing and directions, geography - understanding the desert terrain and the orientation of small oases, biology - what plants can eat and what plants are poisonous...... Wait, but actually, when we got to the first small town and wanted to get my jewelry out, we were targeted. The old man took me and ran away as if he were fleeing for his life, and he actually threw off the pursuers.
"Hey, you don't have to run......" I was out of breath, I was about to be torn apart by the camel, I didn't expect the camel to spread its hooves, and it didn't run slowly: "Anyway, it's my family looking for me anyway......"
"I don't want to deal with your family."
The man said with a strange face, "Besides, let's take this opportunity for you to practice your ability to escape." ”
Thereupon......
The journey of running for your life has begun.
I wondered, maybe Yali couldn't find me, and I couldn't see anyone alive or dead, so I had to make this decision, inform the shops of the appearance of my jewelry, and if anyone came to sell it, I would have to keep an eye on it. Originally, if this old guy explained the situation to someone, wouldn't it be fine? But he wanted to drag me all the way as if he had done something unseemly and would die if he didn't run away. At this time, the people chasing behind us probably misunderstood, thinking that we probably really killed people and destroyed corpses, and now we have come out to sell stolen goods and have been arrested, so a large number of elite troops have been transferred to arrest us.
I wonder if Pharaoh and Xiao Man know about this?
I really couldn't laugh or cry, I was thought to have been killed by my own people, and I was chased and arrested, but fortunately they still seem to have some scruples about taking it alive, otherwise I guess I and this old man with a convulsive brain must have been wiped out long ago, and there is not even a bone residue left.
But......
I have to say that running for your life is indeed a convenient way for people to learn and grow quickly. The old man is simply born to be a good embryo who escapes, making up and changing his appearance, stealing chickens and dogs, sneaking away, and even using sweat medicine to beat the stuffy stick, which is all sophisticated. The most exaggerated time was when we entered the city of Thebes, and he disguised himself as an old woman, and I disguised myself as his frail son, and went into the city without incident.
"Haha, how about I pretend to be a woman?" After entering the city, he squeezed his eyes at me proudly: "There is no flaw, right?" ”
I nodded, "Not really." You didn't see the soldier staring at your ass when you entered the city, and he wanted to tease you. ”
"Well, I know you're not having a good time these days." He touched my head, as if he was kind: "Aren't I doing this for your own good, these are my ability to save my life, others ask me to teach, but I don't teach it." You don't want this expression, people have good and bad things in this life, maybe when you will be able to use these skills. He pointed ahead: "The palace of Thebes is ahead, will you go there yourself?" ”
Hearing what he said, I suddenly realized that I was going to part with this person.
When they were together, they didn't even have much time to catch their breath, but before they knew it, the separation was just around the corner.
"You're going to have to take good care of Kim, you know? I'm going to come back to you in the future. ”
There are many things I want to say, but I only end up with one sentence: "You...... You have to come, I'll wait for you. If you don't come, I'll make Xiaojin into a snake skewer and eat it. ”
He laughed, and Kim unhappily wrapped his arms around me in protest.
"What's your name?"
He smiled: "I said it earlier, I am a master." ”
I pouted, this person really is, he is going to say goodbye and still refuses to say his name. In the future, I will think of him again, and I should call him an old man.
"Go ahead." With a wave of his hand, he turned and left. The streets were full of people, and his figure seemed to have fallen into the river as if a drop of water had fallen into the river, and he was no longer visible for a moment.
I stood in the street looking at him a little wistfully, and then slowly turned around and walked towards the palace. Because I was in a bad mood, I was thrown to the ground when the soldiers guarding the gate stopped me, and I knocked the heads of the others with the back of my sword when they rushed up.
Yali hugged me and cried miserably, and then she couldn't get up on her knees and pleaded with her head, even if I said more.
"It's not your fault, it's me who fell into the river inadvertently." I repeated this many times, but it didn't work.
Well, for a temper like Yali's, it should be dealt with by another means.
"Tell me, what's going on in Memphis these days?"
Yali really shook up all of a sudden and reported the situation one by one.
Well, that's the trick for her.
First of all, Pharaoh and Prince Xiao Man have received the news of my disappearance, anxious, Xiao Man seems to be planning to personally lead people out to look for me, but Pharaoh stopped them, but a large number of elite people have already been dispatched.
"You go and inform me, I'm safe and sound, so they don't have to worry anymore, and they can withdraw if they find someone."
"Yes," and then Arrie went on to say something else, and the Nubian princess who had come to us on a state visit had arrived, and was still passionately obsessed with Pharaoh, and showed love at first sight.
"Where's Ansuna?" The name rolls over the tip of the tongue and feels like a thorn gently piercing it, which is very uncomfortable.
"She," Yali said disdainfully, "as soon as the princess leaves, she seems to regard herself as the mistress of the harem, and she fights openly and secretly with Princess Answer......"
I hesitated, but then said, "Yali, I was rescued after falling into the river...... Did you know that I wasn't bedridden because I was sick, but because I was poisoned? ”
Yali was furious: "What? Who poisoned it! What is poison? ”
I turned my head: "Who ordered it, you go and check this slowly." It should be placed in the spices that are ordered every day, and slowly poisoned little by little...... Moreover, the symptoms after the poison attack are slowly weakened, fever, and it is difficult to get better. I looked at the pale-faced Yali, who looked like an enraged lioness: "Don't worry, the person who saved me has cured my poison." ”
"Yes!" Yali kowtowed heavily: "I must find out this poisoner!" Let her ......"
"What matters is who is behind it." I looked up: "I wonder what the situation is in Memphis now...... Go and call all the officials in Thebes, and I'll have to take care of the situation here, and I'll have to take care of it before I can go back to Memphis." ”
Arlie agreed.
The little golden snake coiled around my wrist and looked like a golden bracelet.
"Xiao Jin, where did your original master go, do you know?"
It slouched motionless, as if asleep.
"Let's hope he's safe all the way."
