There is always a crossing that suits you

Qiao Mu is now sitting with Kailu on a carriage with a wide roof, and the wooden wheels creak when they roll on the earth-rock splicing road.The temperature is very hot, and there is a dry smell in the air. Even sitting in a car with clean water and melons and fruits can feel a little hot and dry. It is really an unpleasant climate.

"Will there be many slaves this time?" Qiao Mu ate the peeled grapes that Kailu sent to his mouth, and asked with big eyes blinking.

"The slaves who can enter the temple are high-quality slaves with clean backgrounds and good looks. It will be very good to take them home and train them a little." Watching his brother eat the grapes, Kailu picked up a sliced ​​melon and fed it to his brother's mouth. "Chenasa can choose whatever you like."

"Do those slaves know how to cook? Or have some good skills? I like skilled slaves." Qiao Mu obediently took a bite of the melon.

"The slaves this time generally know a little about etiquette and weaving and cleaning. If you like slaves with special skills, just talk to the purchasing officers, and they can send them to you in a few days."

"Then thank you, brother." Qiao Mu was speechless as he watched Kailu stuff the melon he had eaten into his mouth.This guy's posture is so natural, it's hard for him to say anything, otherwise he will appear to be making a lot of fuss.

"Here we are." Kailu signaled Qiao Mu to see the majestic palace not far away.

The huge palace is like a giant's lair in ancient times. This miraculous building gives Arbor the most intuitive feeling - big.The nearly ten-meter-high carved gate inlaid with precious stones, the garden or square columns with a diameter of at least two meters, and the roof that seems to gather the light of the sun completely subvert the low soil of Mesopotamia in the impression of the trees. perception of the house.He wondered whether he had entered a world that would subvert his three views again.But since even the gods and divine powers are real, it is normal for this world to be different from the history of the earth in his memory... right?

"It's really magnificent..." Qiao Mu sighed involuntarily.

"The Great Temple is not open on normal days. Only priests, the royal family and some high-ranking ministers can enter. However, even noble people can only go to the middle hall at most. The inner hall is where the high priest prays for the west and listens to the oracle. Even the royal family can’t enter easily.” Kailu remembered that Senasa’s biological mother had never entered the temple, and he couldn’t help feeling full of love and compassion. He touched his brother’s soft blond hair again and said, “The Great Temple is magnificent, but it’s not for fun. It’s a good place, if Senasa likes it, I can take you with me when I pray.”

"Well, my brother is so kind." Although he didn't think there was any good in staying in a place full of aggressive forces, Qiao Mu still expressed his gratitude in a timely manner, and listed the Great Temple as an "unfavorable place" in his heart .

"Here, get out of the car."

"His Royal Highness Prince."

The person who greeted Qiao Mu and his party was a tall priest. His appearance was not outstanding, but he had the unique solemnity, abstinence and fanatical faith that Qiao Mu could feel from a long distance away.The man with long dark brown hair used his powerful aura to forcefully reduce the entire entourage behind him to serve as a foil.

"Principal Proman, I want to choose some slaves for my prince." Kailu held Qiao Mu's hand and stood in front of the man. His small stature did not lose the nobility of the royal family.

"A group of slaves have just arrived in the temple. Your Highnesses, please follow me." The priest nodded in agreement, with a calm expression on his face, and even the noble first prince could not move him a little.In the world of Proman, only the gods are eternal, and even the king is just a person who temporarily manages the land on behalf of the gods.

Kailu also knew the "characteristics" of this priest, and he didn't show any dissatisfaction with the other party's negligence, and directly pulled Qiao Mu to follow him.

The other attendants and priests also followed the three of them.

After a while, Qiao Mu came to a side hall.The space in the side hall is not small, even if there are rows of slaves standing inside, it doesn't look crowded when a group like myself enters.

"Your Highness, the new slaves of the temple are here." After finishing speaking, the tall priest stood aside and remained silent.

Priest Proman can ignore the majesty of the two princes, and other people here dare not neglect.After seeing the high priest's expression of not wanting to say more, someone naturally stepped forward to explain to Qiao Mu.

"What kind of slaves does Your Highness want? These are the best of the slaves this time. They can read and write, understand the rules, have no molars or diseases, and look good." A slightly fat priest stepped forward and said.

"Let them all take off, let me take a good look." Kailu said to the fat priest.

"Yes." The fat priest obeyed, "You all, take off your clothes!"

These slaves are worthy of being carefully selected by the temple, and their obedience is first-class. They obeyed orders immediately, and none of them was sloppy.And they were indeed good goods. Their naked bodies had no scars, and their skin was much better than that of ordinary slaves on the market. Not only were they as smooth as jade, they could also be called fair, and some of them were even better than some nobles.

Seeing this, Kailu nodded in satisfaction, and said to Qiao Mu, "Go, Senasa. Just pick some good ones."

Resisting the discomfort of this attitude of treating people like livestock, Qiao Mu let go of Kailu's hand and approached to pick them, thinking about "Savage Slave Society" in his heart.He can't protect himself now, and he doesn't have that much ability to change social concepts. It's better to actually pick a few people who are compatible.

Qiao Mu walked around among these people a few times, looking at each of them carefully.He had to admit that even the barbaric slave society must be praised for the skill of training excellent slaves.These dozens of people are indeed outstanding from the outside, some are beautiful, some are obedient, some are tall and fit...

"What do you know?" Qiao Mu stopped in front of a girl with a gentle expression.

"Return to Your Highness, weaving and some medicine." The girl replied.

"That's you." Qiao Mu nodded, "No matter what you were called in the past, from now on your name is Irene."

"Yes, Your Highness." Irene respectfully agreed.

"What do you know?" Qiao Mu stopped in front of another tall, brown-skinned youth.

"Cook."

arbor:……

Staring fixedly at this man with a strong muscular body over 1.8 meters tall by visual inspection, Qiao Mu couldn't believe his ears. Did he hear wrong just now?In fact, this person is talking about fighting or blacksmithing, right~! ~!

"What will you do?" Qiao Mu decided to save him again.

"I can cook all the dishes in Western Taiwan, and I can also cook Egyptian and Persian dishes very well. I can also have some special snacks from other small countries." The man looked upright and serious, as if saying [This year's XX industry in our country Interbank lending rate raised by [-] percentage point]...

"Okay, it's just you." Qiao Mu decided resolutely, "From today on, you can be called Teddy."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Qiao Mu was very happy to have selected such a high-skilled talent, and after asking the remaining few people, he found no interesting skills, and returned to his brother.

"Is that the only two?" Carew asked.

"Those two are very good." Qiao Mu was very satisfied with his vision.

"Just those two people." Kailu turned and said to the fat priest.

"Alright Your Highness, we will send the two slaves to the palace before evening."

"Very good." Even though he expressed his satisfaction, Kailu still looked like a prince.

"Do you want to see the statue?" The matter of the slave was settled, Kailu remembered his younger brother's envious expression towards the temple, and proposed to take him to the statue to pray for blessings.

"Is it really possible?! That's great!" The feeling of watching the statue + sightseeing is so strong.

"Of course." After finishing speaking, Kailu said to Priest Proman, "My brother and I want to pray to God."

"Your Highness, you can stay until evening." The priest nodded after thinking for a while.

"Ok."

Attendants and ordinary priests were not allowed to enter the inner hall of the temple. After the servants were dismissed, Qiao Mu and Kailu entered the inner hall under the leadership of the great priest.

The sun poured down, passed through the tall statues, and cast bright shadows in the temple.The rich and thick fragrance filled the air. It was the top spice in the empire. Only the great temple that served the most noble god could provide such a luxurious long-term supply.Qiao Mu looked at the tall god statue, the divine power in his body was flowing rapidly through the blood vessels, and the surging vitality almost made him groan comfortably.

"This is Tianshen An." Kailu's voice was very soft. He noticed Qiao Mu's absence and thought that his younger brother was intimidated by the statue. "Only the Great Temple of Hattusha can see it."

"Why?" Qiao Mu's voice trembled. "An Mingming is the highest god."

"Because Ann is the god who manages the stars, he never casts his eyes on human beings. No one can be favored by Ann. With Ann's divine power, naturally there is no high priest exclusively for Ann." The god on the throne looked at his younger brother gently after saluting, "Just like my mother and concubine, she is the patron of Anriel, the god of wind and earth, and possesses the power of wind, so I will also inherit the power of wind and become Anriel. God's High Priest."

"Use the power of gods to protect this country?" Qiao Mu asked, "Then which god will the people worship when they benefit from it?"

"Almost." Hearing his younger brother's straightforward words, Kailu couldn't help but feel amused. His younger brother is indeed innocent and cute. "However, the power of gods cannot be abused. In the end, it is human power that rules the country."

Hearing these words, Qiao Mu couldn't help giving Kailu a high look. He didn't expect a prince in the slave era to see this step.Calm and rational, not to be confused by powerful forces, he already has one of the essential qualities of an excellent king.And the princess who can hand over such a son doesn't seem to be a good one...

--------------

The night is as cold as water...

Temperatures in desert areas can vary widely, and the days can be damn hot and the nights can be damn cold.Qiao Mu deeply realized this point after he came out of the bedroom.Although he was wearing a thick coat, it still couldn't resist the chill, so it seemed that he had to deal with it quickly.

While someone was soundly asleep, Qiao Mu sneaked out of the bed and slipped out of the palace.Qiao Mu is an old bird on the battlefield, and his superb anti-reconnaissance ability is simply not comparable to these guards from the slave era.Coupled with the fact that this child is young but super flexible, and has a top-notch body, the escape behavior is unimpeded.

Standing under the statue of An again, Qiao Mu finally determined the source of Sai Nasha's divine power.The divine power of the God of Stars is awakened by the bright starlight at night, and the young God of God seems to be bathed in the starlight of the whole universe.The color of his azure eyes gradually darkened until they turned into an almost pure black ink blue, just like the midnight sky.Thousands of stars are reflected, and a glance is full of vicissitudes.

"You are indeed here." A deep and piercing voice sounded behind him, and the tall priest stepped out of the shadows, revealing a profound face, his dark brown pupils seemed to be shining because of the stars in the sky, "I have known since the day You will come."

"So what?" Qiao Mu said lightly.

"I've been looking forward to this day, but the great Anshen didn't enjoy the same offerings. Those ignorant believers will only be deceived by small profits. He is obviously the greatest god..."

"Gods are ruthless." Qiao Mu interrupted the priest's chatter. "A real god doesn't need people to look up to or worship at all. He doesn't care where humans have built a few temples for himself. Just like the king doesn't care about that. People hang their portraits in their homes.”

"..."

"Rather than aiming at the temple where people enshrine the gods, why don't you give your loyalty to me first." Qiao Mu seemed to be saying something like today's good weather, with just the right amount of contempt and bewitchment, "Dedicate your life and loyalty to me." Give it to me—the only high priest of Anshen for thousands of years, and I will take your faith to the highest peak that human beings can reach. Be loyal to me, you swear."

"..." The night became more and more intense, the little child's blond hair gradually turned silver, and the dark blue night sky-like eyes were bewitched by the starry sky. The fanatic who vowed to dedicate his life to the gods ignited a frenzy that burned his life to death ,"……I swear."

"My lord, this is a new child I have adopted. He is smart and tough enough." The high priest presented the first gift of loyalty to his new faith.Following his words, a young man who was more beautiful than sunshine came out from the side door of the main hall, with blond hair and white skin Sai Xue, "His name is Ulusi Charman."
