"Sister, don't meet with Immorton again, marry me, okay?"
I whispered, "You're drunk, you're talking drunk." ”
"Sister, you can't marry him, why are you still obsessed with being with him? What's so good about him? ”
I sighed softly, his hand loosened a bit, and I turned around.
Memphis was already much taller than me, and if I leaned forward, my head would be right on his shoulder.
He's not a kid anymore. The face is painted with peacock green and dark color, and the eyeliner is depicted delicately and slender. The boy who looked heroic during the day now has a wonderful, enchanting and bewitching feeling. I used to look at him with the eyes of a child, but now I have to admit that this child is actually ...... to the opposite sex is very attractive. Even I would be stunned to watch, let alone other women. For example, Midawen is one of those who was bewitched by him, and I believe that in the future, he will become more mature and personable, and then he will definitely be more lethal to women.
I came back to my senses and said, "Memphis, it's amazing to love this kind of thing. You can't actually tell what is good about the other party, and you can't tell what you like about him, but he is in that position in his heart, different from others. No one can replace ......"
"I can't tell, and I can't be replaced......" he muttered to himself, and suddenly grabbed my arm again: "I'm the same with my sister!" Sister has no one to replace in my heart, you are the most important person in me! I want to be with my sister forever, isn't that love? Doesn't my sister have feelings for me? ”
"You......" I looked at him as if he was getting more and more excited, this kid really drank a lot.
I suddenly remembered the trick Imorton had taught me on the way back from Bittado......
My other hand had just been raised, and before I could do anything, suddenly an exclamation was heard outside: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty Isis!" The temple is on fire! ”
I was startled, kicked Memphis away, and threw myself in front of the window in two steps: "What? Say it again? ”
"Your Majesty! The temple is on fire! ”
"Nonsense! Did you burn someone? What about my books and pictures? Have you snatched them all out? ”
"This, haven't reciprocated yet......"
I hurriedly ran out, and Tasha hurriedly met me: "Your Majesty Isis, there is danger, please don't go!" ”
I walked around her, and Unas quickly and silently followed, "You have to be careful. ”
I asked him, "Do you know how to lose a fire?" ”
He shook his head: "I just got the news, and I don't know." ”
I ran faster and faster, Unas following closely beside me.
The fire had gradually extinguished, and the smell of burning things was in the air, and it was choking, and the nose and throat were uncomfortable.
I stood in front of the temple gate, which was still emitting scorched black smoke, and looked speechlessly at the palace people, guards, and monks who were rushing back and forth......
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Her Majesty Isis. ”
I looked at the angry young monk and fixed: "What things and halls are burning?" ”
"It started burning in the high priest's house, but I didn't see him come out, and I'm looking inside......"
I asked, "Grand Priest?" How could his house burn down? I looked around, "What about the girl I sent today?" Where is Carole? ”
"Ethis!"
I turned my head, and Carol came out of nowhere, cloaked, bare-shouldered and barefoot, popping up from behind a broken wall, carefully bypassing the fire, and rushing in front of me. Her eyes were also on fire: "They said that you put me in the temple and took me as a sacrifice!" Why are you doing this to me? Why? I thought we were good friends! Why are you hurting me? ”
"Good friends?" Who did she think she was? I looked at her clothes, not as if they were scattered by a fire, but as if they were ...... Torn?
"What's wrong with you?"
Her eyes were red, but she insisted on saying, "Do you know that the pig in Kabuda wants to insult me......"
"Is he indecent?" I don't think it's going to work.
"I hit him with an oil lamp......"
Very good girl, but the pig in Kabuda is indeed too much.
Well, Kyrol is right, and I think Kabuka is a pig. No, the pigs are better than him.
Wait a minute.
"So fire is ...... Did you burn it up? ”
She took a step back: "I don't want to...... I, I didn't mean to...... I knocked him unconscious, so I hid quickly...... Me, I didn't know the fire was going to burn......"
A little monk approached me and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, your book ......."
"How?"
"Grab more than half of the ......"
At first, I felt relieved, but then I immediately felt that something was wrong. If he snatched it out, why would he be so careful for fear of being convicted?
"Just ......"
"Say it." I'm mentally prepared, it's just, but, but after the turnaround, there is definitely no good news.
"Your drawings or anything, ...... ...... all."
"Forget it, don't talk about it." I shook my hand, and the news would only sound unpleasant.
I have been drawing those drawings for a long time, some of them are the general appearance of tools like waterwheels, some are the figures of sabers and swords, some are crops and fruits, and so on. And then there are maps. Although it is very precious, but I can draw it again without it, the books are very difficult to collect, many of them are unique books, this is the only one in the world, although I have people copy and sort out, but only a small part of them have been sorted out, if these books are gone, but there is no place to find them, they are fine.
"Ethis!" "You lied to me at the beginning that you had given me poison, but I think you scared me because I was fine. But why do you say, 'Do you want to sacrifice me to the river?' Why are you doing this to me? I've always thought of you as my only friend here! ”
I didn't bother to pay attention to her, but behind me came Memphis's questioning: "Sacrifice to the river? What's going on? ”
I turned my head, and Memphis was holding on to the door of the temple, and he was probably in a hurry, panting and saying, "Sister, you ...... Why are you doing this? ”
"Memphis." Carol looked at him with a look in his eyes, which ...... There's something intriguing. She hurried two steps forward, but was blocked by Unas.
"Sister, Kyrol has done something wrong, I will ask her to make amends to you. However, isn't the punishment of being a sacrifice too heavy......
I looked at him coldly: "I don't know when you and her friendship are so good." Although it is said to be a sacrifice to the river, in fact, I have figured out a way to send her home, but it is inconvenient for outsiders to know. If you are reluctant to let her go, you might as well keep her by your side. I looked at Carol: "As long as she is willing to stay, I don't care about your business." ”
I made a gesture, Unas let go of his hand, and Carol took two steps forward, and when he was half a meter away in front of Memphis, he stopped again and looked back at me: "Love, Isis, you said to send me back?" Send me back to the twentieth century? Go home? ”
"yes, I'll send you home." I nodded: "Then do you want to go back?" ”
She replied simply, "Yes!" ”
Memphis didn't know what he was thinking, and looked confused: "Sister, what do you mean by this?" ”
"Memphis, you first touch your own heart, what are you thinking. Now that you've figured it out, tell me again. ”
I asked Carol, "Did that guy say anything other than giving you flowers for you to bring back?" ”
Carol said dumbfoundedly, "Yes, he also said, please take care......"
The man was like an elusive, cunning snake. I feel like he's a much bigger threat than Yar'an. And Egypt and
Carol looked at me and at Memphis, and stood there in a daze, with a confused expression on his face.
"Sister, what flowers? Who sends the flowers? ”
I ignored him.
"Sister...... Are you mad at me? He was half awake from his drinking, and asked a little uneasily.
"Nope."
"But you're not happy."
"It's not because of you." I said, "Hurry up and do what you have to do." ”
The fire had been extinguished, and the air smelled of silence. The black smoke that did not disperse, the noisy voices of people running in the distance, and the cold wind blowing from the dark desert.
I looked up at the sky, and I didn't know why, but I was always a little uneasy.
Seems...... It seems that in this wind, behind this silent atmosphere, something that cannot be grasped is slowly enveloped.
