Chapter 25, Doraemon? God Amun? (Above)

Upper Egypt, Thebes, Egyptian royal palace

Lush palm trees and a variety of flowers and plants, as well as a babbling man-made stream, bring the large courtyard to life.

In the center of the courtyard, four cedar pillars support a large linen canopy, which is simple but elegant.

Under the canopy, on a small couch, there is a petite and beautiful girl sleeping, she has a dazzling golden cute curl, white and smooth skin like milk curd, and a delicate temperament like a lotus, which makes people never forget it after just one glance. A soft breeze with Nile vapor blew through her small cheeks, and her eyelashes fluttered slightly, adding a touch of pink to her fair skin, like a delicate bud in the first bloom, with a certain hazy and mysterious artistic conception, which made people hold their breath so as not to disturb this dreamlike beauty.

It's a pity that there are always some rude guys in this world who don't know how to be elegant and burn the piano and cook cranes, and they will break in and disturb the sleeping beauty's sleep.

“…… Yo, Princess Carol, good afternoon, how are you doing? ”

Under the angry gaze of a group of court maids, Wang Qiu, Doraemon, Ma Tong, Nan Rika and Jukawa Shizuka, the five traversers, wearing buzzing and flying [bamboo dragonflies], landed in the imperial garden one after another, and immediately woke up the beautiful dream of the Nile daughter.

“…… Princess Carol, by the way, I haven't congratulated you on your pregnancy this time, and I wish you and the King of Egypt a noble son soon."

- Doraemon's next sentence with a loud voice made this still a little confused Jin Xiaoniu blushing all of a sudden.

“…… Huh? How do you know? I've only been pregnant for two months...... Ahhh......h

In the face of this big ridicule, the tender-skinned Carol was ashamed and annoyed for a while, and immediately threw the pillow over. The Egyptian palace maids around couldn't understand the English conversation between the two, and they didn't know what they were talking about at all, so they had to rely on instinct and continue to glare at these unpleasant guests.

Fortunately, the king of Egypt, Memphis, and the prime minister of Egypt, Im Hodeb, soon arrived one after another, and it was only after the small turmoil in the royal garden that the small turmoil in the royal garden came to an end.

Then, the traversers got a disappointing piece of bad news.

“…… Ladies and gentlemen, in the last four months we have searched every city in Egypt, but it is a great pity that not to mention the city of Thebes, but in all of Egypt, there has not been a man of such appearance in the past few years......"

Prime Minister Imhodeb, who was slender and pale, spread his hands helplessly and said with a wry smile. “…… Forgive us for not being able to do anything about ......"

And Carol added, "...... Yes, Egypt is already working hard to find people for you. Not only did it issue an official order to find white-skinned Orientals with black eyes and eyes, but it also attached the photographs of modern Chinese that I had asked you for earlier as examples. But in the end, only a few black-headed Elamites (the ancient name of Persia), Babylonians, and one Indian were found...... But there is really no trace of modern Chinese, and the folk have not even heard of similar legends - that person should be dead, right? ”

“…… Alas, Zhang Daniu should still be alive, otherwise, we wouldn't be standing here......"

Wang Qiu frowned and flipped through the Book of Crossing, sighed and replied, feeling a deep headache for this Mr. Zhang Daniu, who could not see the end of the dragon, "...... Alas, that's the only way to do it first, anyway, we won't be here for too long, and if we can't find him, forget it. ”

Hearing that this matter was easily revealed, Prime Minister Imhodeb was also relieved, for this inexplicable and clueless task of finding someone, he really had a headache for a while. Now that he was promised that he could no longer worry about this matter, he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Next, Carol, who had already regained his calm, rushed to Doraemon to report the good news:

“…… Most of the modern world crops that you planted in Thebes, Mr. Jiqì, were very popular with the Egyptians, and they all thanked you very much for bringing these unheard of delicious fruits and refreshing vegetables to the country......"

“…… It's nothing, it's just a gesture. Don't worry too much about this kind of small thing," Doraemon waved his hand disapprehantly.

“…… Therefore, in order to thank you for your great kindness, you have decided to canonize you as a god and enjoy the incense offering in the temple forever......"

“…… Huh? Huh? What the? Apotheosize? Me? Doraemon was taken aback.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

The banks of the gently flowing Nile River are full of ancient temples and stone statues, like a museum of ancient civilizations.

At this time, on the outskirts of Thebes, another huge stone statue was breaking ground, and hundreds of stonemasons had built scaffolding around the stone, climbing up and down like ants, beating and polishing them with stone and bronze tools...... The Egyptians were accustomed to such things.

If it weren't for these hard-working stonemasons who worked from morning till night, how would there be so many obelisks and temples in Egypt?

However, standing at the foot of this stone statue that was about to be completed, Wang Qiu, Ma Tong, Doraemon and others were dumbfounded.

Specifically, it's a two-story tall statue of Doraemon – an ancient Egyptian-style statue, of course......

Then, when the present Doraemon deity himself came to this place, hundreds of Egyptians immediately heard the wind and worshiped him with reverent expressions, and their mouths were full of praise. That kind of simple and warm scene, even with Doraemon's well-informed, is also deeply moved.

“…… Alas, although I was the Jizo King Bodhisattva for a few days during the Warring States period in Japan, and someone built a small temple for me out of wood, it was only the size of a sentry box. I didn't expect that here in ancient Egypt, they would love me so much, everyone is so enthusiastic......"

Doraemon choked up a little as he spoke, "...... Obviously, I just did some small things that were not worth mentioning......"

But strictly speaking, Doraemon is a bit presumptuous about the benefits that these unprecedented new crops can bring to every Egyptian, but they can really be seen from the table and the vegetable garden, all of which are real blessings for eternity

-- High-yielding crops such as corn and potatoes from the Americas greatly increased Egypt's food production, allowing it to feed a larger population.

- Exotic fruits and vegetables, from tomatoes, strawberries, peanuts, green peppers to pumpkins, enriched the Egyptian table.

-- The sugar cane fields standing on the banks of the Nile River gave the Egyptian people a taste of the sweetness of cane sugar thousands of years in advance.

-- Egyptian long-staple cotton, which was not popularized on a large scale until the 19th century, appeared on the banks of the Nile more than 3,000 years earlier. This not only allowed Egyptians to replace coarser linen with more comfortable cotton clothes, but also gave Egypt another "export fist product" in addition to grain.

In fact, the far-reaching significance of these explosive increases in agricultural productivity for human society and civilized countries has gone far beyond the change of dynasties and the rise and fall of religion, and is about to reach the level of civilization upgrading, second only to the birth of agriculture and the industrial revolution

Although the ancient Egyptians could not have thought so thoroughly, at least among the upper ruling groups, there was already a vague premonition.

That's why they gave Doraemon the honor of being a god - fortunately, there were more than 2,000 gods in Egypt, and ordinary gods were not very valuable.

For this Doraemon stone statue standing on the bank of the Nile River, Wang Qiu and the others were initially quite inherently godly, egg pain or miache, but after thinking about it, a power like Doraemon is like Doraemon, whether it is legendary deeds or popularity, there are more than ten streets to throw out those rural gods. And what a profound impact these new crops had on the Egyptians and the Middle East as a whole...... So it calmed down.

At this time, a young priest came up with papyrus and pen and ink and asked Doraemon for his "god name" so that it could be inscribed on the stone statue...... But the problem is that how to translate the word "Doraemon" into Egyptian is a nerve-wracking problem for everyone.

――Please don't underestimate this problem, a good translation can add a lot ⊥ you. A bad translation is enough to leave a lasting loss. For example, when Coca-Cola, a popular drink that swept the world, just entered the 6 Chinese market in the Republic of China era, it was once translated as "tadpole chewing wax" because of a certain strange guy, and it was misunderstood by consumers as some Western witch's potion, and it couldn't even sell a bottle......

However, in the eyes of Senior Sister Ma Tong, who has always had a strange thinking, this kind of small thing is not a problem at all.

“…… Doraemon, what's so embarrassing about such a small thing? Didn't you have a name that fits the Egyptian style in the first place? ”

Well, it is true that due to various historical reasons and poor translations, Doraemon does have many other names and nicknames throughout East Asia, such as Kiqì Cat, Tinker Bell, and Dorayaki Saemon...... Remember another name is ...... Amon?

Suddenly, Wang Qiu couldn't help but feel a sudden excitement in his head, and Senior Sister Ma Tong over there was still talking to herself: "...... It's 'Amon, ah Doraemon, remember whether it's in Taiwan or Hong Kong, you've been translated into that name......"

“…… Amon? It feels like a nickname or an abbreviation. But it seems acceptable...... It's just a translation anyway. ”

Doraemon pursed his lips, turned to the clerical priest and said, "My Egyptian name is Amun."

“…… What, what? God Amun? ”

On the other hand, hearing this thunderous name, the young priest holding the papyrus immediately had a blank mind, and could no longer remain calm, his body staggered, and he almost fell, and the pen and paper in his hand were scattered all over the ground......

It's not that his psychological quality is too bad, but the name that Doraemon said is too powerful

What did the god name "Amun" mean in ancient Egypt in the New Kingdom?

-- means the sun god of Egypt and the chief god of the country of Egypt

Just like Zeus in Greek mythology, Jupiter in Roman mythology, and Odin in Norse mythology

Well, if you had to make an analogy in China, it would probably be equivalent to the Buddha or the Jade Emperor......

Although it has not yet reached the solipsistic Cheng dù of God in Christianity, from the perspective of politics and faith, I am afraid that it is not much different.

Of course, at the beginning of ancient Egyptian civilization, Amun was only a local god in Thebes. At that time, Thebes was just an inconspicuous town on the east bank of the Nile. But the problem is that later Thebes became the capital of Egypt, and Amun also took advantage of the situation, and quickly became the god of the sun and the main god of Egypt, and even the greater god of the universe, and the king of the gods, even the pharaoh who ruled Egypt, was theoretically the son of the god Amun

-- In a practical sense, it is probably similar to the Chinese saying about the so-called "Son of Heaven."

Despite the power of Doraemon's light on the creation and destruction of the world, it is definitely worthy of the title of the god Amun in ancient Egypt. But the problem is, the unruly! Is Memphis, the king of Egypt, really willing to find himself a new father with round blue skin?

However, just when the Egyptian natives were shocked by this too "high-end and high-class" name, and modern visitors such as Doraemon were baffled and confused by this, and they were dumbfounded and overwhelmed for a while. The supreme leader of the religious circles in Egypt, the fat Kabuda priest, suddenly fell to the ground with a fierce tiger, threw himself in front of Doraemon and kowtowed, and then crawled and cried:

“…… O great god Amun, hast thou at last answered the prayer of thy humble servant to bring thy incarnation to earth? Oh what generosity, what kindness, oh great god Amun, forgive thy foolish servant, and the first time we see thy round head, we should think of the brilliant sun in the blue sky......

e: Beyond the word count: "The Ukrainian government's "radiation tank"

Another recent news has further refreshed the Ukrainian government's teasing index - due to the failure of the previous encirclement and suppression, a large number of tanks and armored vehicles were damaged, and European and American aid was not sufficient, the Kyiv authorities began to use the "radiation combat vehicles" sealed in the Chernobyl incident for the East Ukrainian war - it seemed that the mothballed equipment was originally intended to be used, but who knew that when I checked the warehouse, the stock of combat vehicles had already been sold out, and now they can only repair these "radiation products" that no one wants.

Some government troops have now said they have contracted radiation sickness and often have nosebleeds for no apparent reason. The Donetsk militia used Geiger counters to measure the radiation levels of captured enemy armored vehicles. It is estimated that in the near future, they will no longer need flares, flashlights or night vision devices at night, and they will be able to directly see the flashing fascist bandit armored units.

In the past few years, I have only imagined that the Kyiv authorities who can't do it can even drum up a suicide mobile dirty bomb truck can simply amaze the kamikaze, why didn't they think of this trick at the time of the Pacific War?
