In order to complete the deal with the Babylonian palace as soon as possible, the four Bass soldiers split into two routes. Rag and Daorong drove the ox cart to the ship to fetch the remaining silk, while Bass and Yang stayed behind to guard the goods and continue to communicate with the old man.

The old man, who claimed to be called Uragon, said that his family had served the royal family of Babylon since his grandfather's generation.

Bass claimed to be the personal bodyguard of the princess of Shu, and he originally wanted to know more about the special temple in the desert, because from Uragon's words, Bass sensed that the god man he was talking about might be an alien who had fallen here like himself.

However, Uragon seemed reluctant to continue the conversation on the subject, saying that Beth could take the princess of Shu to visit the temple, saying that as long as he mentioned to the priests of the temple that he had been introduced by Uragon, the priests would definitely receive them.

Later, Beth and Uragon exchanged the development of civilization between the East and the West, and they agreed on specific arrangements for a future visit to the palace of Babylon, when the four Bes first visited Uragon's residence, and then Uragon arranged a time to meet with the king.

By the time the silk deal was all completed, the four of them returned to the spaceship, and it was time for the sun to set.

After listening to Bass's report and analysis, Raco believed that the immortal priest in the temple outside the city was probably an intelligent man. When and where did he come here? Why did you become a priest here?

The five of them decided to go to the temple at dusk, the temple was far away in the desert outside the city, there would certainly not be many people on weekdays, and no one would stop there near dusk, and landing the ship nearby would not attract the locals, and the priests of the temple would have time to talk to the guests.

The ship bypassed the city of Babylon and landed in the sand outside the temple garden, with Raco still guarding the ship and four of his companions visiting the temple.

When the four of them stepped off the spaceship and looked at the temple not far away, they were surprised to see that there was a man standing at the top of the temple, who was bathed in the last glow of the setting sun, his long flowing hair and long beard on his chin shimmered silver in the light of the setting sun, and although his facial features were not much different from those of the natives, his figure was obviously not as tall as that of ordinary adult local men.

Rag stretched out his eyes to see that the people at the top of the temple were also watching this way, and he had apparently seen Rako's ship and the four men under it.

The last rays of the setting sun quickly disappeared from the top of the temple, and the person standing on the top of the temple jumped off the altar and disappeared.

Rag withdrew his eyes and said to his companion, "I think he is a priest, and I am sure that he is a sapient man like me, because if he is a biological person, even a priest, he will be excited or scared to see our ship, but his expression is very calm. ”

"Rag, can you tell which planet he's from?" Bass asked.

"Because we sapients can easily change skin color and certain facial features, it's hard to determine which planet he's from, but it's certainly not from our planet Molo, because his ears are significantly smaller than ours in his head." Rag Dao.

Daorong laughed and said: "Laga, why don't you stay in Shu as a priest, I am willing to be your apprentice." ”

Rag smiled: "I can't do it if I want to, your master is definitely not willing to give way." ”

Yang immediately said: "Lager, that's very simple, as long as you and Beisi are willing to live in our Shu country permanently, my father can build another temple, so that you and Rong'er can be priests and priests." ”

"Well, since that's the case, I'll ask this priest later if he's willing to recruit me and Rong'er as apprentices to learn some priestly skills." ”

All three of them laughed.

As soon as the four of them walked to the garden area of the temple, they saw that the silver-haired man who was at the top of the temple just now was already standing under a large tree waiting for them.

He asked aloud in Babylonian, "What planet are you from?" ”

Without hesitation, Rag replied, "We're from Molo!" You're the priest of this temple, aren't you? I think you're an intelligent person like me, what planet are you from? ”

"Your judgment is very accurate, I am from Russ!" The other party's answer was very refreshing, "As far as I know, Moluo Star is very far away from this world, what is your mission to come to Earth?" When to go back to Moloxing? ”

The four of them walked under the tree, and Rag introduced himself and his three companions to the intelligent priest, and then recounted his experience with his companions, and finally said to the priest, "Tell me about your experience, how did you get here?" Why didn't you go back to Russ?"

The priest said, "I am Mr. Beal's assistant, we came here a hundred and thirty years ago, Mr. Beale died forty-six years ago, and the Babylonians believe that he has returned to heaven.

Mr. Bill had to flee Russ for some reason, because he had a longing for the Earth world, so he decided to come to this world secretly to live in seclusion for a while.

Unfortunately, however, we encountered a very unlikely event after entering Earth's space, when our spacecraft was hit by a tiny meteorite at high speed, causing damage to the power system.

The landing area that Mr. Bill and I chose was originally this region of American Supotamia, because we knew that the Sumerians had established a rudimentary civilization in this area. However, due to the damage to the ship's power system, it was difficult for us to land at a speed that could not be controlled, so we had to land in this desert area.

Although we were all safe, the ship landed too quickly and sank into a deep pile of sand.

Luckily, King Sumu's army, who was the leader of the Amorites at the time, was fighting not far away, and it was he who led his soldiers to rescue us from the bunker, and as a result, Mr. Bill and I later helped King Sumu defeat his enemies and establish the first kingdom of Babylon.

Since the ship's power system could not be activated again, I had to stay here, and in order to protect the ship and commemorate our miracle of falling from the sky, King Sumu built a temple here, and I have been stationed here as a priest ever since. ”

Bass was overjoyed and asked, "So your ship is still intact?"

The intelligent priest replied, "Yes, we have built an enclosed basement underground to protect the ship, and the desert climate is dry here, and the facilities inside the ship are well preserved.

Mr. Bill and I were hoping that one day we would meet an alien visitor and help us fix the ship. Even if it can't be fixed, we can ask them to take us back to Russtar. It's just that you're too late, and Mr. Bill hasn't been able to wait until today. ”

When the doctor's story came to this, Xiaolan interjected and said, "Grandpa Bai, I can now guess how your grandfather got home, he and his friends repaired their own spaceship using the useful instruments and equipment of the spaceship in the desert. ”

The doctor praised: "Xiaolan is very smart! It is precisely in this way that later, the three intelligent people worked together to spend a considerable period of time repairing my grandfather's spaceship, and they used the shell of the desert spaceship, positioning and navigation system, communication system and other components to successfully make my grandfather's spacecraft capable of interstellar flight.

While the intelligent people were repairing the spaceship, my grandfather and grandmother and the priest Daorong were not idle, and they visited the king of Babylon as agreed with the Uragon, and the two sides reached a series of agreements on trade and personnel exchanges between the East and the West.

Because there is no need to use gold to repair the spaceship, my grandfather and they used a part of the gold to buy a lot of specialties from the Western Regions, including ivory and sea shells that the Babylonians often used to worship the gods, these two treasures we have seen in the Sanxingdui Museum, I think they are part of the ancient Shu that my grandfather brought back from Babylon.

The intelligent priest decided to follow my grandfather and them to Moluo Star, so after the spaceship was repaired, he and his grandfather went to Shu Kingdom first.

The King of Shu was very happy to receive so many treasures and gold brought back from the Western Regions by my great-grandfather and great-grandmother, and he was also happy to let my great-grandmother marry my grandfather far away, and once again sent a batch of silk as a dowry gift for my great-grandmother to be loaded into the spaceship.

My great-grandmother selected five maids and five guards in the palace to follow her to the outer world, and only stayed in Shu for a few days, and my great-grandmother and they set off to return to Moluoxing. ”

Xiao Lan heard this and had a question, "Grandpa Bai, your great-grandmother only brought ten people to Moluoxing at that time?" But Haizi said to me, your Bai family already has thousands of people in Moluoxing. ”

The doctor smiled: "That's right, that's because after living in Moluo Star for a year, my grandfather and great-grandmother once returned to Shu Kingdom, because my great-grandmother wanted to go home to visit relatives while her brother was still alive, and the ten retinues she brought with me all hoped to bring their families in Shu Kingdom to live in Mo Luoxing."

So, that time, my grandfather rented a larger spaceship and returned to Shu, and they brought back hundreds of people that time, and my great-grandmother's brother was already a king at that time, and he gave my great-grandmother a lot of gifts, including a large number of silk and local specialties of Shu.

Silk was very precious in Moluo Star at that time, and after my grandfather and grandmother sold those silks in Mo Luo Xing, they used all the funds to settle the Shu relatives and friends they brought, so that they could live in the outer world without worry. ”
