Priest Sozak stood in the center, holding the heavy golden book and continuing to recite the scriptures, and Memphis and I swore to God that we would never betray each other and never forsake each other.

"Walk through the Yellow Springs, cross the land of death, we will be forever, we will return......"

It seems that the wind is blowing again, faintly, but it makes people feel awe-inspiring. It seems that there is something more in the air all of a sudden, and it seems that the air has also gained weight and pressure, making people feel that their bodies are inexplicably sinking and loosening, and they feel indescribably strange. I came back to my senses, and I heard the muffled chanting still echoing, reverberating, as if it was about to resound in my mind and spread everywhere. The hall was filled with a calming aroma, and for a moment I felt as if I was standing in the middle of an empty desert.

But in fact...... That's the way I had my relationship with Memphis.

We are loved ones.

This kid...... I still can't figure this out.

I'm not annoyed that he doesn't love me, and I don't love him anyway. But he couldn't get along with that girl in Kell, and I wasn't happy to see him. That girl is really ...... Alas, I really don't want to mention her.

Last time, I gave her the antidote formula that I needed to take regularly, and I wanted to cut ties with her completely, but I couldn't think of it...... People are not as good as heaven, she didn't even go back to modern times, but stayed here, and was actually taken captive by Bittado, which is really troublesome. If that's the case, I'll have to do something else.

The body of Xiao Jin on his wrist suddenly shrank again, and I watched as a monk dressed as a messenger of the sun god with his head and face and body painted in gold was holding a holy wine that symbolized strength and auspiciousness, and invited me to drink with Memphis, and the ceremony was over.

I watched as the dark red sakeste swayed slightly in the golden cup. The monk bowed down and held the gold plate high.

Memphis reached for his glass, and as soon as I reached for the bottom of the plate, I flipped it over. The wine was poured on the monk's face, and the man fell to the ground with a scream!

Priest Sozak shouted in a changed voice: "Someone! Come! There are assassins! ”

Even if Memphis had a hint from Xiaojin, he immediately reacted that the wine splashed on people's faces would not be painfully rolled on the ground anyway.

The guards outside the hall drew their weapons and rushed inward, and the two monks nearby also drew their short swords and pounced on Memphis, the light on the blade of the sword was indescribably strange, some green and some blue. Before I could scream, Memphis didn't use his arms to get his arms out, he drew his sword from under his cloak and kicked the assassin away from the lower abdomen as he parried. This Memphis! The long sword at his waist was not untied and left outside the temple, and it seemed that he also had a good judgment of the current situation. Another assassin rushed at me, I dodged, and pulled out a short sword from under the cover of the cloak and held it in my hand, but before I could have a chance to use this hidden weapon to defend myself or kill the enemy, Unas had already rushed in front of me, and the sword in my hand was slashed out with all his might, and the assassin was a short weapon in his hand in order to be able to carry it easily, and he could not compete with him in terms of strength. There is a saying that one inch is long, one point is strong. One point is short, one point is dangerous. Unas's sword used all his strength, and also borrowed the gravitational speed of the jump, of course, the assassin could no longer hold it, and the short sword fell out of his hand. As soon as he turned over, he suddenly held something in his hand and shook it in his mouth, Memphis threw himself on the side, grabbed me and rolled over to the ground, two blow arrows swished and flew over his hair, and a monk behind him screamed, and was pierced by the flying arrows, and fell down as heavy as rotten wood.

Memphis scolded in a low voice and said, "Sister, be careful! He sprang to his feet and shouted to the guards to surround the two Assassins, wielding his sword to give the Assassin a new color.

My hand had broken a little from the ground and I didn't bother to pay attention to it, and I stood up with my dagger in my hand. Actually, Memphis didn't need to do that just now, and I didn't have to avoid it.

But he still chose to fly over and pounce on me to save me. You must know that the blow arrow is 100% poisonous, and if he does this, the danger of being shot by the arrow is greatly increased

Their timing should be said to be very good, but the poisoned wine did not work, and although the Assassins were very skilled, after missing the blow, their advantage was completely lost.

But in the end, we didn't take it alive, and the two thorns were poisoned. It's not like I've seen on TV in novels before, biting through the poison sac hidden in the mouth, it's not like that. They've been poisoned beforehand, and whether or not they succeed in killing Memphis and me, they'll be poisoned and killed at this point.

"Is it Bitaido?" Manfi's morale was really red. Maybe it's an illusion, it's not surprising that there is blood on the ground, on the pillars, and on his sword, and there is a red blood light.

"Not really."

I asked him, "Are you not hurt?" ”

"Nope."

"What about Unas?"

He shook his head, his face was still a little wrong, maybe the few thrilling and ferocious fights just now were too impressive. ”

"Good." I picked up the short sword that the dead assassin was holding and looked at it carefully: "This sword is poisonous, very powerful snake venom, my little gold has no choice, there is no cure." So you two are really lucky, because if you get a little bit of skin, you won't survive a day. ”

I looked at them again: "Are you sure you're not hurt?" ”

"Nope." Memphis raised his arm, his elbow red and swollen: "This is my elbow on his face, he can't have poison on his face, right?" ”

My gaze shifted to Unas again.

"I'm fine...... "He paused under my gaze and said, "I've been kicked in the ribs, and the bones should be fine." ”

"Call the medic to show you."

I looked at the sword: "This may not be an assassin sent by the Bittados. ”

"Why?" Both men had questions.

"Bitador already knows how to make iron, and the craftsmanship is good. Carole has been tied up by them for so long, and there may be a lot of improvement, such an important assassination plan, why do you still use a short thorn of brittle and not tough enough copper? If there are more assassins than Tai, they should use iron, right? ”

"That's right, look at the style of the sword, well......" Memphis muttered, and suddenly a completely unrelated sentence popped up: "I'll have someone interrogate Carol first, since she is also included in the Bitado conspiracy, then she should be able to get more clues from there." Sister, you take care of this side of the matter first, and an assassin actually sneaked into the temple, hum! I'm going to gather the guards, and then I'm going to order the whole city of Sinuya to be under martial law, and I'm going to find out the Assassins' comrades!" ”

Memphis strode out of the temple, and I looked at Unas again: "Are you really alright?" ”

"I'm fine, Your Majesty." Unas smiled wryly: "Not really." If I've been poisoned by snakes, it's time to have a seizure, right? ”

"You're always dishonest." I whispered, feeling like I am

Priest Sozak was affected by the fight just now, and he didn't know who he tripped over and fell hard, and he was limping up and walking towards me, with a panicked face: "Your Majesty Isis, I really don't know how there can be a temple where assassins can sneak in, I can guarantee that I definitely have no ......"

"Alright Priest Sozak, I'm sure you're fine, but it's an indisputable fact that the temple is filled with assassins. Do you need to teach you how to do it? ”

"Yes, yes," he hesitated, and then whispered, "Your Majesty, the last step of the wedding...... Haven't ...... yet."

I stared at him: "The wedding is done, understand?" ”

For this god-worshipping man, although he is not 100% religious, he still hesitates a little when he is asked to say such a thing in the temple: "This ......"

"Sozak, you're a smart guy, aren't you? I don't need to say more. ”

He finally made up his mind: "Yes, Your Majesty is right. ”

"It's not me who said it, it's like that."

"Yes, exactly." He licked his lips nervously: "But there are still so many monks in the hall watching ......"

I turned my head and smiled: "I don't know if there are any Bitai people in the palace, you have to beware of them spreading rumors and making trouble, and when you come back to review and interrogate one by one, you must make it clear that you must not let gossip affect the reputation and authority of the royal family and the temple." ”

Sozak immediately realized: "Yes, yes, what Your Majesty taught, I understand." ”

Of course, the people in the temple want to be investigated, but seeing that Sozak is so happy, he can also take the opportunity to stand up and eliminate dissidents, right? If anyone dares to say that this wedding is not completed, then I don't care whether Sozak will charge this person with being a spy. There is no good fruit to eat, and the principle is the same everywhere.

"Your Majesty, we ...... now" Unas asked in a low voice, "Do you want to go back to the palace?" ”

"Return, of course." I straightened the somewhat messy hem of my skirt and held my head high.

I would like to see if His Majesty Pharaoh is interrogating the female prisoner or visiting his old lover. It's all the same question, but the meaning is very different.
