Andos took beads that he could hold in his mouth and keep the corpse intact.
I've heard of this thing. The Empress Dowager Cixi seems to have such one, but when she robbed the tomb later, she still couldn't save it.
The color of the one that Andos brought was a little reddish.
Andos said, "Put it in his mouth, and it will be fine." ”
I whispered, "This thing is precious, you gave it to me, what are you going to do?" Won't there be trouble? ”
"No, it won't." Andos's voice was calm, not as somber and uneasy as it had been before he went to fetch the beads. Some things will be thought about before doing them, but after doing them, they feel that they are nothing more than that, and there is no big deal, but they become calm. He said, "Even if my mother knew that I had taken her, what would she do to me?" I don't have anything else to mind either. ”
"I'll give it back to you."
"No need," he said...... "I gave it to you, you ...... When you see this later, you will occasionally remember, in Minoa, here, there is another person who remembers you. ”
He nodded, "That's fine." ”
"I'll be back."
Minoa, I'll be back again. Whether Immorton was killed by the Queen Mother or not, those who were killed in the inn, their deaths are a heavy stroke of blood painted on my heart, and I must never forget.
I must also find out about this matter.
I can't let go of the murderer who is hiding behind the scenes.
Andos put us on the boat, and the twists and turns of the road were not easy to walk. But the sound of the waves is getting clearer and clearer. I don't know how many turns we turned.
Eventually, no longer in the dark tunnels, I saw a deep, black-blue sky, a crescent moon, the endless sea, and a boat moored in the shadows on the shore.
Unas and I were not the only ones on board, but six sailors stood silently on the side of the ship and on the deck. I glanced at Andos, not knowing where these people came from. Andos had said that he didn't know anyone, and that he had only been friends with Immorton for a while. So who found these people for him? Is it the Queen Mother? Or was it someone else, he didn't tell me?
Andos didn't explain anything to my puzzled gaze. He simply said that these sailors are reliable, and if they don't say much, they will send us away.
We got on board and Immorton was placed in the bilge.
A stone will be placed on the bottom of the boat by someone else, and the boat will be pressed. There are many more theories.
The boat did not put stones, but a corpse. I don't know, what Poseidon will say.
I used to ask the merchants to draw the charts that I didn't have with me, but I remember that from Minoa to the west, first to the island of Moldorna, and then from there we could take a merchant ship back, this boat is a small fishing boat, and it is not realistic to want to send us back to Egypt across the long sea area, and it should be enough to send us to the island of Moldorna, and there will not be much risk.
"Moldor?" "There seems to be ...... There is a small port. Are you going there? ”
"The businessman who came and went once mentioned it, and it should be okay. The ship was small, and it was not easy to get back to Egypt. ”
"Yes, there are often merchant ships there......" Andos was a little distracted, "I forgot about it." ”
I didn't even remember the island.
But Andos also knew about Moldorna, which shows that he was not ignorant of the outside.
The more time you spend with people, the more you feel like you don't know each other.
I'm not curious, how did this ship of Andos get it, and how could these people follow his arrangement?
I was only puzzled, because when I got on the boat, I found that the boat looked like a small fishing boat with nets, but when I got up, I found that it was not the regulation of a fishing boat. Just like the time when the Bittado kidnapped me, it looks like a merchant ship, but it is essentially a military ship. The same is true of this one, only the size is smaller, and the level of shipbuilding craftsmanship seems to be much higher than that of Bitaido and Egypt.
"Let's go." Andos stood in the shadow of the rock, and he didn't say anything more, but said, "Do you still have that bead with you last time?" ”
I shook my head, "I'm so sorry, I guess I lost it." ”
"It doesn't matter." "That's not important," he said. I...... Here's this for you. ”
The thing he handed me was cold and heavy, and I lowered my head.
carved in stone, it seems...... It's a whistle.
"What is this?"
"This is a ...... I carved with my own hands," he did not speak, and suddenly he fell down, and I thought he had fallen, but he bent down, and I felt as if a little wind, and like a feather, and gently brushed it against the back of my hand.
Then the person in front of him turned around and disappeared.
I knew he was back in the labyrinth, but there was a ...... The illusion that he was consumed by darkness.
Unas pulled me: "We need to go quickly, this is not a place to stay." ”
The boat retracted its cable and quietly slid outward.
Unas whispered to me that he was too close to the shore for fear of being seen, so he couldn't set sail now.
I don't know as much about these things as he does, and Unas is right, it must have been a mile or two offshore, and the sailors lifted their sails, turned the rudder, and set sail all the way west.
Always...... Heading into the unknown.
"Here you go."
I looked at the dry food that Unas handed me, and it was a very hard cake, which was also very dry, otherwise it would be difficult to preserve.
I didn't have an appetite, so I took it too, broke it in half and handed it to him.
The identity gap between him and Unas has become blurred unconsciously.
Born and died together, at that time, I didn't care that I was the queen, he was a guard from a slave. At that time, we were companions, companions who wanted to live together.
This time I came to Minoya, and I didn't do anything, it was like a gamble, and I lost all the chips in my hand. If I hadn't known Andos, I might have died here myself.
Before...... It's been too smooth. Even if I fell into the hands of Bitador and escaped, I made Bitador suffer a big loss. On the way back, he and Memphis took the city of Assyria apart from Aran and stormed the city.
I thought I was very capable...... Actually, I think too highly of myself.
He took a few people with him, and ran to Minea, which he didn't know at all, and now he was completely wiped out......
I sat there, breaking the hard cake bit by bit and stuffing it in my mouth. The taste of the cake is somewhat sour and bitter. But I don't know when it was mixed with the salty, tearful taste.
"Rest." Unas said, "Inside your cabin, I'm here to watch." If you go all the way from here, you'll be where we're going by sunset tomorrow. We'll bring ...... when the time comes. With such a piece of luggage, it is still a question of how to find a merchant ship to carry us. I thought, I had to find a large box to pack up for valuable goods......"
I nodded: "You have a point. But you look like you've slept a lot less than I do, and your eyes are red. Sleep, I'll sit here for a while......"
"This won't work! You ......"
Intercept his words: "Okay, nothing can't be done." You've survived, so who's going to protect me? ”
He was silent for a moment, and that seemed to work very well for him.
"Yes."
He only said one word, and then hugged the bronze sword he had found in his arms and leaned against the wall.
In just a few seconds, I could tell that he was asleep.
I'm afraid he hasn't slept these days, and besides, his injuries are only worse than mine.
If I keep up any longer, I'm afraid Unas ...... And it will fall right before my eyes.
