Chapter 10 The Sacred Wheat Field (Part 2)

The hunting ground of Eubotia is located in a precious green foothills between rivers and plateaus. Calabis is sitting on a maza chair, looking with interest at a piece of land hidden among the vine leaves and long grass that seems to be related to ancient religions. The relevant relief carving shows an image of a man and a woman kneeling on the ground. There seems to be a fat child in the middle, with a sacrificial bowl at his feet. This ancient family has left behind in the long river of time in its own form The "images" of hard-working people living in this world were what Karabis was most concerned about in the past. He had already made an ambition in college. After graduation, he joined an archaeological team to excavate more buried in Anatolia. The historical past under the plateau, but who would have thought that he himself would now become one of the "mysteries" that spans history.

There was a ringing of horse bells, and he looked back. Adiana was riding a two-year-old green horse over a fence with a yo-ho sound. This little green horse was the most ill-tempered in the Wang family's stables. Pi, is now being trained by the mistress. Queen Eubotia's long hair was tied into a ponytail with a tortoiseshell hairpin, and her neck and forehead were covered with fine beads of sweat. She was chasing the scorching summer sun on horseback, like a cheerful bird. She abandoned the Greek noble lady's loose pleated tunic, but restored the origins of the Mitra family. She wore Persian bifurcated leggings and boots on the lower body, and an embroidered hunting coat draped diagonally on the upper body, with a slit to the left. The thin silk shirt was exposed, and a bow and arrow box were hung under the saddle. The belt tightened her soft breasts, which were swollen and bumped on the horse's back together with her ponytail. This girl had obviously become plumper in the past few days, and her mouth and cheeks had become plumper. All as ripe and lovely as the cherries of Sinop.

But the special envoy of the Thirteenth Legion has obviously lost weight in the past few days, and it is obvious that the Queen's reserve team is endless: Adiana is quite scary - she likes to take a superior position more and more, trying to use her pride to New tactics win greater victory on the "battlefield".

So when the maid next to her handed over the roasted meat smoked with musk and the fried beef and sheep testicles wrapped in flour, she asked Calabis to eat them so that he could show his bravery in the hunt on horseback, which made the envoy only smile bitterly. And when she saw Adiana in the distance who was interested in relief sculptures, her red face was filled with real anger. She reined in her mount, took out a hunting arrow with a buzzer, put it on the string, and let out a clear whistle. Flying over the head of Calabis as a warning - Biduita, who heard the sound of hunting arrows, hurried over with several accompanying cavalry, only to see Calabis pulling out a dug weapon from the tree trunk. Clusters of arrows made of hollow bones, and then smiling, reluctantly, the Parthian mare stepped on the leather stirrups: this stirrup made of Calabis, plus the choice of docile dwarf mares, This made Adiana laugh at him, joking that he had stayed in Rome for a long time and could not tame four-legged animals at all.

"Brother will tame you!" Calabis said in his heart, but did not dare to say it in front of Adiana. He knew that although this girl had natural magical powers on the bed, she was quite thin-skinned. Previously, because of a maid, When she handed him those aphrodisiac foods, she exchanged a few words with him and smiled at each other. The maid was rushed over by Adiana on horseback and whipped a few times with a riding crop until even her bun was broken up. , if Calabis hadn’t stopped her sternly, I don’t know what would have happened to this unfortunate maid.

You, I really don’t know if you want to hide the relationship or if you want the world to know about it.

"Amphora, run with me for a while, don't be lazy! Albona's right hand, you stay on guard to prevent unsuspecting common people from straying into the hunting ground." Adiana grunted unhappily, and then rode on the green The horse lightly crossed a section of dead trees that had been knocked down by the thunderstorm, and dragged its ponytail along the lush woods and pastures. Calabis sat astride the saddle, swinging his legs and working closely with the mare below. He walked around the dead wood with thin steps, then followed Adiana's footsteps steadily and slowly left.

They gradually exceeded the scope of the hunting ground and ran to the back of the mountains. Finally, Adiana stopped her horse in front of a steep slope, and Calabis also stopped his mount. At the bottom of the hillside was a gray-white winding mountain road. Winding between the mountains and the plains, dull dark clouds lingered in the foothills, and the shadows began to climb like a slope, extending to cover the entire mountain. It seemed that there was going to be a heavy rain soon.

"Amphorae, I had a dream last night. A dream related to the sacred wheat field." Adiana did not look back, but raised her whip and pointed down the hillside. There was a wheat field waiting to be harvested, so The two slowly restrained their mounts' hooves and walked to the peculiar wheat field. The reason why this wheat field gave Calabis a "peculiar" feeling was because under the shadow of the rain clouds, the wheat ears were still visible. Glittering like gold.

At the end of the wheat field, there is a small temple, and the priest's magic weapon is still emitting curls of green smoke. Adiana is right, this may be the sacred place of the Mitra family, and Biduita also has a special interest in him. It has been said that the successors of the Mitra family will have strange dreams that are passed down from generation to generation.

"I should have told you, Abona's right hand. Yes, the strange dream of our family has always been related to this golden wheat field. Mithridates I, the founder of the Pontic Empire, actually no one knows when he rose to power. He claimed to be a descendant of the royal family of the Persian Empire. He was familiar with strategies and a lot of knowledge, and quickly expanded his influence in the valley of the Red River (Halis River). During the War of the Diadochi, he was subordinate to Antigonus (Antigonus I). Later, when Antigonus passed through the Cappadocia Mountains, he camped by this wheat field and had a dream at night. He dreamed that he sowed gold in this field, but the mature wheat ears were all harvested by my ancestor Mithridates I and transported back to Amasya."

"I have also seen this dream you mentioned in books, but that was Antigonus's dream. "The dream of Antigonus."

"Some things are not mentioned in the books. In fact, the ancestor also had the same dream as Antigonus. So he realized that he would be harmed, so he took six riders and hid from the Macedonian pursuit overnight, and fled to a fortress not far from here to defend himself. However, fate is fate. Not long after, Antigonus was killed in the War of the Successors, and his kingdom fell apart. Cappadocia and the Sea of ​​Pontus really became the ancestor's possession. "

"What about your dream, Adiana?"

"I dreamed that you and I had sex happily in this wheat field, and the wheat grew wildly and spiked, and then you took advantage of the opportunity when I was tired and fell to the ground to cut and transport all the crops away." Adiana said, lowering the whip, her expression did not seem to be joking at all.

Calabis didn't know how to answer for a while, and thunder was rolling in the distance, and the rain was about to come. (To be continued.)
