Return of the Mummy

Because ancient Egypt bordered the Mediterranean Sea in the north, Nubia in the south, the Libyan desert in the west, and Arabia across the Red Sea in the east.This geographical environment of ancient Egypt surrounded by deserts and oceans was spatially "isolated" by other countries.

Therefore, the geographical isolation caused ancient Egypt to seldom communicate with the outside world, so commerce was not very developed.Even sporadic foreign transactions are under the monopoly of the state.

And unlike other countries, most of the people who sell things on the street are Egyptian women.In Egypt, the status of women is not low.In some ways—such as selling things—they have an advantage over men.

Of course, if it is a caravan, women generally will not participate.After all, it was a long journey, and their physical condition was still not as good as that of men.

The women on the street, with headscarves wrapped around their heads, squatted or stood, with all kinds of goods in front of them.It can be bartered, and can also be purchased with currencies such as Deben and Kate.

It was probably because Hollenhib was wearing ordinary clothes, but the material on his body was not cheap, so those people yelled even more vigorously.What's more, there are a few people who want to squeeze in front of Hollenhib with their goods.

But because of Seke, their plan did not succeed.

Compared with Hollenhib, who still needs to grow up, Sek is already a very strong man.Although his appearance still has the roundness of a teenager, his wheat-colored skin, firm muscles, tall body and resolute expression are enough to make many girls scream.

In the "Fiduo" of Hollenhib, Seke is the captain in it-of course, this is what he got with his fists and strength.If it is said that Ai Xiete is a diehard loyalist to Tutankhamun, then Seke is a diehard loyalist to Horunhib.

"Oh! Be careful! Be careful... Oh, my God..." Hollenhib squeezed back and forth in the crowded crowd—under the sun, some cloths also smelled like spices and bacon, which smelled really good. Not very comfortable.

Just walking to an empty space and wanting to breathe a sigh of relief, before Hollenshib had time to look back at Seke, he heard a series of chaotic voices.

Hollenhib didn't find it strange, just like when he went to some remote towns to go to the market, there would always be "crashes" of one kind or another because of the crowded roads, so he only had to dodge to the side up.

But before he could move, a strong arm wrapped around his shoulders and pulled him aside.

What? !Hollenhib's first thought was not who would save him, but to assassinate him or something - as early as in his previous life, his senses had been sharpened.If it is not someone close to him that he agrees with, it will be difficult to approach him.

And it's not Sek, Sek's body is refreshing, but there is no smell of spices-the most important thing is that Sek's forearm is exposed, but this person's arm is covered by a layer of white linen. Covered, all the way to the wrist.

But he relaxed in an instant. Firstly, there was no murderous aura on this man; secondly, Hollenhib didn't want to cause any trouble in such a crowded place.

With a crackling sound, a cart full of cloth and spices were scattered all over the floor.Fortunately, the spices are packed in a wooden box instead of a jar, otherwise I don’t know how to clean up if it breaks in this kind of place.

"Thank you." Hollenhib turned his head and looked at the person who pulled him back just now.

This is a very handsome man. He looks like he is only in his 20s. His dark brown hair is bound by a black headband, his brown eyes are shining, and he has a free and easy smile on his face: "It's just a matter of effort." , besides, this cargo is ours, it will be bad if you get hurt."

Hollenhib felt that the content of this person's speech was a bit strange, but after thinking about it carefully, there was nothing suspicious.

He looked at him suspiciously: "Are you a foreign businessman?" Judging by his attire and appearance, he was not Egyptian.Holunhib knew that at this time, although it was almost the end of the year, while the family members of those officials were all coming to Thebes, there were also some merchants who came to Thebes to sell goods in order to make a lot of money.

Hollenhib looked again at his companion who was frantically picking up the goods.Probably because of wearing a turban, squatting, and bowing his head, Horunhib didn't know the appearance and expressions of these people.

"Ah, yes." The man withdrew his gaze on Hollenhib, and something flashed in his eyes, which was too fast to catch.

Damn, this man is too tall!Complaining about his still-growing height, Hollenhib had a spring-like smile on his face: "If that's the case, then don't bother me." Over there, Seke has already helped to pick up all the fallen things Get in the car, "As long as you obey the rules in Egypt, you will gain something."

Since it was he who caused him to almost hit him, and then helped him later, then the two are settled.Hollenhib didn't even think about telling him his identity—at most, he thought he was the son of a certain nobleman or minister.

Although, Hollenhib felt that he was vaguely familiar with this person.However, I don't want to think about these things now. At most, I will send someone to investigate the origin and background of this group of businessmen.

"Thank you for your help." Although Seke was doing the work from the beginning to the end, Hollenhib just stood and spoke, "I hope to see you again." He felt that the smile on the man's face was too free and easy.

Hollenhib frowned slightly, but still nodded at this handsome man, and left with Seke.

Hollenhib, who was in a hurry to find someone, didn't notice that the eyes of the man who was still sunny just now showed the excitement like a wild beast hunting: "The longer the kitten grows, the more charming it is..."

"How is it?" Hollenhib asked in a low voice.

"They are indeed ordinary goods. Although they look more luxurious, they do not hide any weapons. I also pretended to accidentally open the spices. They are all real spices. There are no poisonous powders, and there are no different kinds of mixtures that will change. Unsafe spices." Seke reported the situation just now in a low voice.

"Hmm..." Hollen Hibb frowned, and unconsciously rubbed his right hand on Edjo, who had successfully lost weight on his left wrist and was honestly putting on a bracelet, "I still feel something is wrong..."

"Then why don't you go and ask the Medecha commander to stop them now?" Seke heard Hollenhib say this, and immediately wanted to catch those people.

"When did you become so impulsive?" Hollensibb glanced at Seke with a half-smile, could it be that all these years of training in "Fiduo" were wasted, "They are serious businessmen...so... We'll talk about this later." Hollenhib turned his head, his eyes lit up, "I think we've already found it."

In the side hall of the Royal Palace of Thebes, Tutankhamun stroked Best's shiny and smooth black fur: "Where did Holunhib go?" Although he is no longer his personal bodyguard, but because of recent events, , he also has to enter the palace every day.

"Master Hellenhib has something to go out today, he said, it's a 'business trip', you understand." Although Aishet didn't quite understand what Helenheeb said, it didn't prevent him from hearing Helenheeb's words. Catch keywords.

Tutankhamun's movements paused, and then he scratched Best's chin with his index finger: "Well, I see." jump down.Tutankhamun tidied up his attire and walked towards the main hall: "Let's go, they should be waiting in a hurry."

Every year, other small countries pay tribute to Egypt—although Egypt’s national power has been declining during the period of Akhenaten’s reign, in any case, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, at least at that time There was no war, was there?

And what makes those small countries feel hopeful is that although the newly enthroned King Tutankhamun is still young, he is not as static as his father.Even if the famous Egyptian player Hapokites died accidentally, his son still led the Egyptian soldiers to defeat the Hittites.

Oh, I forgot to mention that after the Hittite king Arnuwanda was seriously injured by Holun Heeb, although he was rescued by Musiri and the others, the wound he cut was too large—no one knew Xib is specially selected to cut the places where the arteries are relatively dense.Even the arrow that was shot accidentally missed the neck artery of King Hittite.

So, unfortunately, the Hittite king, who was still dying on the battlefield, went to see the gods of their "Hosti" temple because of bleeding profusely shortly after being carried back.

Of course, it is sad that the king is dead, but more importantly, the country cannot live without a king.Originally, if the succession was in order, there would be no problem.But the problem is that the day before the heir in line ascended the throne, he died inexplicably.

Well, one more time in order.

However, the brothers of the former king seemed to have noticed something. For a while, although they were still harmonious on the surface, secretly poisoning, assassination and the like emerged one after another. Is it my turn soon?

So for a while, Hittite accidentally fell into civil strife.

Compared with the civil strife in Hittite, Egypt's newly appointed Pharaoh's resolute actions and the fierce general Holunhib who had no sons and fathers made all the small countries feel that they seemed to be able to live better.In addition to them, even those relatively powerful countries, such as Assyria, have sent envoys over, wanting to take a look.

So, with so many people coming, of course they have to entertain them well.In fact, Tutankhamun didn't need to care about this, but since there were his future opponents among the people who came, he didn't miss this opportunity.

When Tutankhamun came to the main hall, he happened to see Nefertiti talking to Prime Minister Ayi, and the clerk beside him was writing and drawing something.Seeing Tutankhamun's arrival, everyone saluted—even Nefertiti, but her salute was much simpler.

"Queen, you are here, and I was looking for you." Tutankhamun walked up to the chair that symbolized the supremacy of the king, and sat casually.

"Isn't it busy recently? I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much. So I thought about so many things recently, maybe I can help you with something." Nefertiti's attitude is always very Gentle, like a loving mother.

A moved look appeared on Tutankhamun's face: "Oh, yes, Queen Mother, I made you worry, but..." Tutankhamun paused, showing a worried look, "But I know You are tired of taking care of your grandmother during this period, how can I have the heart to let you worry about these messy things? I am already a pharaoh, you can just enjoy the blessings."

When Tutankhamun said "take care of grandma", Nefertiti's fingers hanging by her side moved.After listening to Tutankhamun's words, she crossed her hands on her chest: "My lord, you are already sensible. I am so happy, you are right, her condition... really needs my care. Well, if this is the case, then you are like Prime Minister Ayi and study hard."

After saying these words, Nefertiti led a group of attendants and walked out of the main hall with graceful and slow steps.

"Ai Xiete, has the queen mother been taking care of the grandmother recently? Although I understand that the grandmother is indeed prone to illness when she is old--I don't mean anything else... All in all, it is really too much for the queen mother to take care of her all the time. It's too troublesome. How about Ai Xiete, you go and get some things to make up for your mother and grandmother - although the third sister is now a priest, I think she will be willing to lighten the burden on the queen mother and take care of our sick grandmother of."

Seeing that Ai Xiete was leading away, Tutankhamun turned his head and looked at the calm prime minister Ayi: "By the way, Ayi... I heard before that among the envoys from Assyria this time, There is a little Assyrian princess?!"
