“…… The cursed art of the ancient Egyptian priests? Hehe, this thing sounds very bluffing, but it's actually not very useful. If these bald monks really had such a great ability, would Egypt still be conquered by the Nubians (black people in the south), Assyrians, Persians, and Alexander the Great? ”

In response to Wang Qiu's question, Queen Cleopatra shrugged her shoulders disapplausively, "...... You're right, there must be a lot of Egyptian priests who are using black dog blood, scorpions, and scarabs to perform witchcraft and curse me to die quickly, but it's certainly useless - Egyptian priests can curse the ancient Egyptian pharaohs to death with their divine powers, because the pharaohs are also Egyptians and worship the Egyptian gods as well. But they could never curse the alien conquerors who did not believe in the gods of Egypt! I don't believe in God, and God can't help me...... This truth should be common knowledge among professional travelers! ”

“…… Of course I know this kind of thing, people in Mexico have also smashed a Quetzalcoatl god with bricks......" Looking at Queen Bixia's eyes as if looking at an idiot, the corners of Wang Qiu's mouth couldn't help but twitch, "...... But more than half of your people are devout worshippers of the Egyptian gods! Aren't you afraid that an oracle will suddenly descend on the way, inciting these uprooted people to rebel and overthrow your dynasty? ”

“…… Hehe, Qiujun, the Egyptian priests are not as stupid as you think. Queen Cleopatra rolled her eyes, "...... Not to mention that when there is still a way to live, it is a foolish thing to fool believers into seeking death. Moreover, if any god who doesn't have long eyes really jumps out, then just ask Professor Yang or Sonia to shout 'This is not scientific'. This stupid god is going to fall! ”

- Well, although many cults like to call on their followers to commit suicide en masse, this kind of anti-human organization is generally not very large.

Generally. The strength of the liliang of religious belief lies in the ability of the missionary to adapt to the general trend. The rise of morality and simplicity of Christianity was a counterattack against the depravity of the late Roman Empire. Buddhism, which preached the equality of all beings, was born because Indians were no longer willing to be bound by the Brahmanical caste system...... Under the trend of the times, as long as the boat is pushed along the river, there will naturally be thousands of people behind you, and the tide of thousands of people is enough to overturn all the obstacles. That is, the so-called mobilization of the masses.

The fundamental pillar of the gods and the church is the power of faith of millions of people. But on the other hand, if God and the church go against the grain. Completely ignoring the needs and interests of the believers at the bottom, they only think about doing nonsense...... Then such a belief cannot be sustained.

However, although the liliang of gods and beliefs, it is not as powerful as the myth boasts. But they are also not to be underestimated. Fortunately, Queen Cleopatra is also a smart person after all. When Wang Qiu opened her mouth to remind her of this, the queen said that she had a plan.

“…… That's right, in this era, the ignorant ancients could not live apart from religious beliefs. Professor Yang Wenli's statement that it is necessary to open up people's wisdom, promote scientific knowledge, and break down feudal superstitions will not work at all in this era. At most, I can only change from believing in this god to believing in that god. ”

Queen Cleopatra said with a leisurely expression, "...... Exactly before I crossed. It's a shrine maiden who specializes in serving the gods......"

- Although it had been vaguely expected before, it was coming. Wang Qiu still felt that his facial muscles were a little twitching.

“…… In other words, you are going to build a cat shrine in Egypt and promote the belief in the cat god like you did in the previous time you traveled to the moon? And then appointed himself the high priest of the cat god? Well, it seems that the Egyptians are also a cat-loving people, but the Japanese cat god and the Egyptian cat god should not be the same thing! ”

“…… You don't have to worry about this matter, it's enough to have a professional like me take full responsibility! ”

Queen Cleopatra's face was full of pride, and she shook her little finger cutely, and said mysteriously, "...... The Egyptian cat goddess Bastet issued me an oracle claiming that if I made her the guardian deity of the capital and built her a temple, she would give me divine powers! ”

“…… Oh? Then congratulations! Wang Qiu raised his eyebrows, "...... In this case, the first thing to do after returning to Alexandria is to build a shrine for the cat god! Are you going to make Egyptian-style, or Greek-style? Or maybe it's a Japanese-style cat shrine? ”

“…… Alas, it is a year of great calamity, and the treasury is not rich. For the time being, let's put aside such a big project that costs people and money! At present, it is even more necessary for people to rush to grow some high-yield grains such as potatoes and sweet potatoes to make up for some food shortfalls. As for the construction of the temple......"

Queen Cleopatra handed a piece of paper to Wang Qiu, and at the same time folded her hands together, put on a coquettish and cute expression, and bowed slightly to Wang Qiu's classmate, "...... I can only continue to trouble Qiujun for help! Please! ”

Then, Wang Qiu was shocked by Queen Cleopatra's whimsy.

“…… Belch...... Let me see...... Oh my God, you got two large inflatable models to make it up? That's cutting corners, isn't it? ”

Hyundai Shijie, China, Xijiang, a rural inflatable model factory

“…… What the? Just two models, and it won't be delivered until next month? Boss! Can you hurry up? I'm in a hurry! ”

Pointing to the design drawings on the wooden table with the ancient Greek-style Colonnade Temple and the ancient Egyptian-style cat goddess Buster statue, Wang Qiu said eagerly, "...... Delivery within two days at most, the price is easy to say, how much rush cost, you can open a price! ”

“…… This one...... I really can't do it. Sir, it's not that I'm going to make things difficult for you, how can there be any reason in this world to push out the door-to-door business again? But this list of yours ...... Alas! It's too bad for a while! The owner of the inflatable model factory scratched the oily skin on his head in distress, and his face was embarrassed. …… It is now the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, and the factory has long been on holiday, and the migrant workers who have returned to their hometown in Sichuan for the New Year have not yet rushed back. Several of the pillars of the factory have also gone to relatives, and they can't even call people for two days......"

“…… So what to do? Wang Qiu was so anxious that he was sweating profusely for a while, "...... It's too late to wait until next month! ”

“…… No rush, no rush. Do you think that's good? We also have several ready-made inflatable models here, with similar shapes and themes to what you are looking for. The same is a woman with cat ears and a Western temple! You can come over and take a look first, and if you can make do with it, you can use it first......"

The boss thought about it and pulled Wang Qiu to a small warehouse at the back. A few boxes were opened, and "...... Look, this is what I made for the XX Religious Culture Theme Park and the Guangzhou Oriental Culture Exhibition. It's a little different from your drawings, but it's still pretty much the same......"

Ancient Egypt in 47 BC, outside Alexandria

The scorching sun had disappeared beneath the surface of the sea, with the bright moonlight shining brightly. A 15-metre-tall giant inflatable plastic model of a cat-eared lady. Gradually erected by the combined force of several electric inflatable pumps, every detail is reflected in the roaring bonfire—large shiny eyes, fluffy triangular ears, cute cat's paws with pink pads, slender yellow and black cat tails, and collars and bells around the neck...... It is indeed a delicate and cute appearance. But here's the problem...... Weishenme is naked?

And not far behind the inflatable colossus of the nude cat-eared lady, there is also an inflatable model of the Dome of the Rock with a golden roof and white walls. The walls are covered with verses from the Qur'an, and above the dome, which resembles an onion's head. A bright silver inflatable moon is shining.

Countless Egyptians are gathering in front of this suddenly formed idol and bowing with reverent expressions.

According to the decree of Queen Cleopatra, in view of the fact that the old patron saint of Alexandria, Serabis, not only failed to protect the city in the previous wars, but even his own temple of Serabis was in ruins, and the priests and priests were scattered, it was really ashamed to pray for the people's sacrifices, so he deposed Thrabius from the throne and promoted the cat god Buster to the new patron saint of the capital.

“…… I'm sorry, but I've really done my best. It's the Spring Festival holiday on the other side of the wormhole, and the inflatable model factory can't start at all. The statues and temples you want are not in stock, so they must be ordered temporarily...... So I had to temporarily divert some of the same inventory to save the emergency ......"

Next to the heel of the inflatable colossus of the naked cat-eared lady, Wang Qiu explained to the embarrassed Queen Cleopatra with an apologetic face, "...... This model of a mosque was ordered for a religious and cultural theme park, and several other Taoist temples were even more unpresentable, so I bought it - anyway, now let alone Muhammad, even Jesus was not born, and there will never be a Muslim out of nowhere to denounce you for blaspheming Allah......"

“…… This one...... Alas, it's just a matter of making a model of a mosque, but where did this inflatable model of a naked cat-eared lady come from? Don't tell me it's also a religious and cultural theme park, China shouldn't be so open! The queen asked, suspicious.

“…… Ah, this is the setting of the last Guangzhou Oriental Culture Exhibition. Because the cat's ears were printed in the wrong color, there was an extra set, and they kept being left in the warehouse to eat dust......" Wang Qiu shrugged, "...... This shouldn't be a big problem in ancient Egypt, where the streets are full of naked women! I've seen several marble statues of you in Alexandria, all of them naked......"

In this regard, Queen Cleopatra, whose face was full of black lines, was silent for a moment, but in the end she could only let out a helpless sigh

Then, she will change into a celebratory costume and preside over the inauguration ceremony of this "inflatable model temple".

At this moment, around the "Inflatable Model Temple", a dense crowd has gathered, women shaking bells, men beating tambourine, and girls dancing to worship the gods, making the whole scene extremely joyful. It wasn't until Queen Cleopatra, dressed in costume, walked out of the tent with a sacred and solemn expression amid the long sound of a row of military trumpets, that everyone quieted down a little.

The young and beautiful Egyptian queen Bixia was dressed in a white linen "nuge white", a shawl made of gold thread that hung down to her knees in the shape of a bat, her long beautiful hair was draped down, and she wore a red crown symbolizing Lower Egypt and a white crown symbolizing Upper Egypt. The silver moonlight shone on her crown and dress, gilding her with a halo that made her even more sacred and noble.

She first chanted a hymn in praise of the Egyptian cat goddess Lady Baster, and then bowed down in front of the idol to pay homage to the goddess Bastet.

Then, in the next moment, a mutation suddenly appeared!

At that moment, Wang Qiu only felt that his pupils seemed to shrink slightly.

Without warning, a thick layer of silver-glittering hair, with a speed visible to the naked eye, suddenly grew out of the smooth skin of the Egyptian queen unscientifically, and soon covered her back, and then spread all the way to her calves, arms, undersides, and hair...... The soft silver fur is so smooth and shiny, like a flowing moonlight, and is stunningly beautiful.

But even more striking is the silver cat tail that sticks out from the back of her ass - it has a slender appearance, with gold, white, and black rings on the silver fluff, and it unconsciously flicks from side to side...... Coupled with her dazzling silver hair that suddenly changed color, as well as the fluffy silver cat ears that emerged from her head, and a pair of glowing golden pupils, everyone present felt that their hearts twitched violently, as if they had awakened something wonderful......

In short, the speed of this mutation was so fast that everyone didn't have time to react at all, and could only watch in extreme shock, as Queen Cleopatra, who was originally full of majesty, turned into a cute silver-haired golden-eyed cat-eared girl......

Even Queen Cleopatra herself didn't seem to be aware of the change at first - she squinted her eyes in the silver moonlight and unconsciously purred a low "purr" from the depths of her throat, like a cat in a happy mood.

It wasn't until she unconsciously stretched out her pink little tongue and licked the meat pad on the cat's paws that she suddenly noticed that something was wrong, and her golden bewitching pupils suddenly stood up like a real cat, and at the same time looked up at Wang Qiu beside her, and let out a cute and confused chirp:

“…… Meow?! ”

——At that moment, Wang Qiu felt as if he had been cute. (To be continued......)
