Chapter Twenty-Six: Once Upon a Time in the Sand

With the appearance of the sandstorm, everyone present was in an uproar.

The queen's personal bodyguard is actually ten or even nine points similar to her.

This means that the two are likely to be sisters!

And there can only be one queen, no matter how intimate she is, she has to be ruthless and execute the other party on the day of her accession to the throne.

Successive queens have all done this, not even letting go of a person close to them, for fear of threatening their position of power.

As the rule of the first Sha Queen, no one dared to touch this precept, and no one knew the consequences of violating it.

In contrast to the public talk, the Senate and the Temple were in private ecstasy:

"It turns out that the little girl didn't die back then!"

"It's okay now, I've got her handle!"

"Just use this to blackmail her, see if your sister is important, or if the throne is important!"

Menes also felt that something was wrong, but she didn't panic, she just cordoned off the scene first, allowing the Janissaries to evacuate the site and leave.

Su Ling stood in the ring at a loss, no one cared about him as a foreigner, they were all discussing the queen's affairs, and the crowd that crowded out of the arena enveloped him in it, like a tide driving a pebble forward.

He didn't expect that the queen would have sisters, let alone that it was the celebrity around her.

However, this does make sense, why don't you believe that Menes, who doesn't believe anyone, would let such a mysterious guy always be by his side, even eating and sleeping together, and it can also explain that Sandstorm wears armor all year round, and it turns out that it is just to hide his identity.

Asha, a leopard girl again, sandstorm, isn't it a leopard?

I just don't know, it's my sister or my sister.

"Don't be stunned!"

Suddenly, a voice exploded in his ears, knocking him out of his thoughts.

Su Ling turned his head and saw that it was a heroic female warrior, looking at the medal on her chest, she should be the squad leader.

Seeing him staring at his chest, the female warrior frowned, and said nothing: "The queen is waiting for you in the palace, don't be so rude!" ”

With that, he turned and left, continuing to evacuate the crowd and dispel the congested reporters and ill-intentioned assassins.

The situation was extremely chaotic in an instant, which Su Ling did not expect, it seemed that the Senate was already going crazy, and in order to maintain its position of power, it would do everything possible.

"You have to think about whether you want to continue to be involved...... If the benefits are not enough, he will immediately withdraw from Zeta. ”

Su Ling secretly made up his mind, and the skull ring on his hand suddenly emitted a burst of dark light, and his body immediately dived into the shadows and disappeared into the arena.

......

In the Queen's palace, the servants are preparing bath towels and adding hot water to prepare for the daily bath.

His Majesty was known to love bathing to keep his body clean.

Everything was ready, the servants were leaving the queen's palace one after another, and Menes did not like to be disturbed by her bathing time.

The mist was thick, and the bath was surrounded by a circle of round pebbles, and Menes sat on the edge of the pool, gently playing with the ripples with her jade feet.

A figure sprang out from behind the pillars of the palace and threw herself into Menes's arms, rubbing her head against her palm.

Su Ling silently watched this fragrant scene behind the curtain, the queen sisters sat by the bath and were intimate, their postures were so graceful and moving, and their faces were so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off, like two demon flowers.

Menes beckoned to him in a bikini-like swimsuit: "Come here, my warrior." ”

Su Ling hesitated for a moment, he had heard that Zeta was open, and it seemed that the queen was no exception, but he was afraid that he was the only guy who could receive this honor.

On that day, he lifted the true face of the sandstorm, causing an uproar, and Menes immediately suppressed it with iron blood, and immediately returned to the palace to discuss important matters.

Now the outside is full of voices from the Senate and the Temple, demanding that Sandstorm come forward to prove her relationship with the Queen, and that she must follow the rules of the original Queen and execute anyone who threatens the Queen.

If Menes can't erase this stain, the impeachment he faces next will be very serious, since ancient times there can only be one queen, and any sister must be executed on the day of the throne, and it is taboo to dare to cover up.

It is said that the sister of the first Shahou was quite harsh on her, and after she came to power, she did not repent and tried to replace her, and after the matter was exposed, Menes personally executed her sister, perhaps it was this lesson that the queens of the past were often alone, alienated and indifferent to family affection.

However, this queen is an exception, she seems to be cold-blooded and ruthless, but she is reluctant to execute this person who may threaten her position.

Menes's face was calm at the moment, and he petted his sister in his arms, and she nestled in Menes's arms like a little cat.

Su Ling sometimes felt that the identities of the two sisters should be reversed, the elder sister was more like a leopard, and the younger sister was like a wild cat.

Menes turned to look at him: "Asha is my sister, and it stands to reason that on the day I was chosen, she would be executed. ”

Su Ling listened silently and did not speak.

The queen smiled and combed her sister's messy hair around her ears:

"But how can I kill her, since the day I was chosen to be queen, I have lost my freedom, I have lost my friends, all by Asha's company, but every day I feel that her life is passing, and the days of her accession to the throne are getting faster and faster, and I seem to have seen death smile above her head."

For the first time, there was warmth on the face of the powerful queen: "Asha doesn't understand anything, her ability is very strong, but the price is that her mind will stay forever at the age of six, for her I am everything, no matter what she says, she will listen, because for a six-year-old child, giving sugar is the best friend." ”

Su Ling was in a trance, sandstorm, isn't that what Sha Leopard meant?

The mind is always six years old, and those who play with time are really played with by time, and it is no wonder that he always feels that Sandstorm is a little stupid.

Menes continued: "On the day I came of age, I quietly banished her, and all the guards found was the body of a stand-in, for which I had been preparing for years. ”

There was some mockery on her face: "Probably the old men of the Senate don't understand either, how can anyone let a person who can threaten them live?" Even if Asha is a fool, she is better at manipulating, and if it weren't for Buster's spirit that chose me, I'm afraid it would be Asha who would have taken the throne. ”

Baxter?

Hearing this name, Su Ling was stunned for a moment, and always felt a little familiar.

He thought for a moment, remembering this unknown but very important deity.

This is an ancient deity, and its image is often a cat-headed human body, uh, it has nothing to do with the cat lady, you can refer to the cat-faced old lady.

Buster's divinity is complex, including the moon, love, felines, fertility, and can be transformed into war and medicine, and even includes the patron saint of the land and the pharaohs, even in polytheistic religions, it also occupies a pivotal position.

No wonder the Sand Queen can unify Zeta, it turns out that there is the instruction of the goddess, but the ancient gods either die out or hide in the dream realm, how can they end up in person?

What is the relationship between the queen and the gods?

Menes lifted his slender and seductive calves, tapped the water, playfully rippled with the ripples of his round and full toes, and said lightly:

"The truth about Zeta's history, and the Queen's secrets, I tell you all today, are all traces buried under the sea of sand."
