I had a moment of intoxication.

The taste is like a mellow wine that has been accumulated for many years, and the moment it is opened, it is fragrant and fragrant, which makes it difficult to hold on.

I felt that my chest felt so strange for a moment, as if it was filled with something and was about to overflow, but I felt unusually empty, as if this full of things was unpredictable, I couldn't grasp it firmly, and it was very uncomfortable.

The brain is a little foggy. But the other hand pressed behind me suddenly touched something, slightly cool and hard, I didn't have time to think about it, so I waved it out.

He stepped back, the dagger narrowly grazed between his throat, drawing a bright light, my movements were not controlled by my brain at all, it was completely instinctive, a blow missed, immediately turned over and jumped out of bed, he was dressed in solemn black, dancing without wind, I was wearing a thin gauze skirt, and it was rubbed messy, it was really difficult to see people.

We confronted each other across the bed, and neither of us spoke for a moment.

He picked up the nightgown on the gold stool at the head of the bed and threw it at me, and I looked at him vigilantly as I draped it over and tied it with a belt.

"If I hadn't suffered a loss from you, maybe I would have been killed by you this time." He reached out and rubbed it lightly against his throat, as if his heart was palpitating, but the smile on his lips was firmly annoying.

"Isis, I remember that after the fire in the small temple, you came to the main temple to learn from me...... Before that, I had only seen you twice from afar, and I thought you were just a little girl...... But now, you're about to become Queen of Egypt. ”

I nodded: "These words are useless, you don't need to say this, save your energy and get down to business." What do you want to do when you dive in the middle of the night? ”

He smiled, "I just wanted to meet you before I ascended the throne, because I heard that you met another assassin tonight, and I was relieved to see that you are safe now." If you don't want to see me, then I won't see you again for the rest of the day. If you want to find me, let the people around you come to the Temple of Anubis to find me, I am here as an emissary of Minoa. ”

I was surprised: "You? How did you become a Minoa priest? ”

He smiled bitterly: "What do you say? I was seriously wounded, and I sailed out of the sea with a good wind, and later met the Minoa warship. They saved me...... Then something happened, and I stayed in Minoa and was worshipped as a priest by the Queen Mother. ”

He's really fateful.

And he is quite capable, even if he is injured and banished like that, he still survives.

Thinking of that sword, the wind that blew on my face that night, and the tears that fell behind the darkness, my heart also softened, but it was only for a moment.

He said, "You have to be careful, it's probably ...... a few days When I came, there seemed to be some strange changes in the starry sky from the sea boat, which I can't say, but it always had a great deal to do with Egypt. ”

I haven't been to the temple for the past few days, and I don't have any premonitions of danger.

Immorton is certainly not a vain figure, he is definitely much stronger than the current Kabuda priest who can only chant scriptures and pretend, so since his disappearance, the position of high priest has been vacant, Kabuda has tried to get himself up several times, but unfortunately he has no real materials, and once his father is gone, Memphis does not eat his set, and he is hopeless.

But there are also benefits to a straw bale like Kabuda, which only knows how to collect money. If it is true that Immorton has been firmly in the first place in the temple, and his prestige is getting higher and higher, I should worry that he will interfere with Memphis's royal power.

He stood there and said in a deep voice, "Take care of yourself, in a few days...... See you soon. ”

He leaped out of the window, his black robe unfurling like a dark cloud blown by the wind. I saw a Minoan priesthood mark embroidered on the placket of his robe, and I was stunned for a moment, and the placket disappeared from view.

I hurried to the window in two steps and looked down, and below was a dark courtyard, with slanting flower branches and lush green, all mixed into a deep and shallow background of the night, and I couldn't see where he had gone.

I knew I should have made a decision to take care of it right away. With his knowledge of Egypt and the power of the temple, if he really wanted to take refuge in Minoa and make Egypt an enemy, it would be a danger to his henchmen, and a small knife from the elbow was the most unguardable.

But......

My hand holding the dagger loosened and tightened, tightened and loosened, and a word was on my lips, but I could not say anything.

And he's not the same as before. The last time I could stab him with a sword, he was defenseless. But after a long and wise experience, since he dares to come back this time, he is sure that I can't do anything to him.

And...... Anyway, he was still a Minova emissary.

The handle of the dagger already warmed my grip slightly. I was slightly startled by the flowers on the flowers and trees in the courtyard, and when I looked at them, the petals fell in a flutter, and the water of the Nile in the pond flowed softly.

The ancient Egyptian palace at night is like a dream.

I sighed slowly, heard movement behind me, and turned around.

Yali was looking at me with some surprise: "Princess, what happened?" I...... Why did I and the eight palace maids who served the night sleep so deeply, and I didn't even hear you get up? ”

Eighty percent of it was Immorton who did something, and then he sneaked in so recklessly, and fought and quarreled with me, talking for a long time. Yali doesn't usually sleep so well, and today must be because of him.

"I can't sleep, get up and disperse." I still haven't said it. I don't know why, in fact, I didn't hide anything from Yali, but after such a hesitation just now, I still didn't say anything.

With a slight heat on her face and ears, she asked, "Do you want to drink something?" ”

I nodded, feeling a little thirsty.

The starry sky outside was still brilliant, as if the canopy was sprinkled with beautiful diamond fragments.

I don't know how to look at the stars, and I can't see whether there are variables or not.

"Ally," I called out to her as she was about to leave the door, "help me change my clothes, and I'll go down to the temple." ”

"Princess, it's so late......"

"There's something in my heart, and I want to check it out."

Yali agreed, and took my clothes out for me to change.

Xiao Jin swam over and touched my finger with his head as if flattering, I was angry, and bent my finger on its head and flicked it hard, Xiao Jin twisted a few times, and it seemed to be very aggrieved and coiled in a circle, and after a while, it was entangled again.

I also don't think I'm bored with it.

The little gold plate on my wrist, and I gently touched it twice.

Suddenly it occurred to him that Immorton ...... Please that old man save me...... This should be true.

Because at that time I said that I should thank Xiao Jin, and the old man said that there is another person I should be thankful for. I thought he was talking about himself or Luka.

But now that I think about it, he should be talking about Immorton.

It's just that at that time, it was inconvenient for him to say the identity and name of Immorton.

And Kim knows him too......

Immorton he ...... What was going on in his mind?

My fingers slowly fell to my lips, and I felt a slight itch and a little tingling discomfort.

Maybe it was just now, I don't know whose teeth were struck, right?

Maybe it's his, maybe it's my own.

I took Arie's hand and came out, not called Bulin, anyway, the little shrine I used to pray for was not far away. The night breeze blows on the face, carrying the chill of the desert night.

I stood quietly in front of the idol for a moment, raising a hand and slowly raising it.

Sometimes, there is also a bit of a mysterious feeling, but I often can't figure out whether it is my hallucination, imagination, subconscious...... Or is there really a metaphor.

A little confused, his squinted eyes seemed to see a thick fog, and under the fog was a river, and there seemed to be a person standing in the middle of the water.

A slight flash of golden light flashed and I wanted to see it more clearly, but it was all gone.

"Princess," Arlie followed me out, "isn't it...... What revelation does God have? ”

"I don't know, I can't tell." I looked up at the sky: "It seems...... There is a person. ”

"People?"

"yes, I can't see clearly, maybe it doesn't mean anything."

But Immorton said it was a big variable.

What could it be?

I thought of another possibility, what he said couldn't be his own variable, right?

But Immorton is in and out of my chamber as if no one was there, and if he wants to do me any harm, he already has a good chance.

But he didn't......

Or maybe he's even more ambitious?

Xiaojin, this little guy can't be relied on, and I still have to strengthen my guard in the future.

It's not that I don't want love......

But this man is too complicated for me to grasp him. Even though I had stabbed him with that sword before, but now facing him, I felt that the last encounter was not a victory against him.
