The earth has returned to tranquility. This place is located at the innermost part of the desert, so except for the occasional strong wind, there is no sound here. Shu Linjunyan
Tuvia was lying on the bed with her eyes closed tightly. Although she was sleepy, there were too many things waiting for her to understand slowly, and her sleepiness gradually faded away.
Suddenly there was a soft sound outside, and she suddenly opened her eyes and looked towards the door.
"Squeak-----"
The window was gently pushed open.
A familiar figure jumped in from the window. He jumped in vigorously and moved quickly to the bedside.
For a burning moment, he stared at the woman on the bed with secret joy.
"How did you find it?" Tuvia stared at the familiar face in front of her with a pair of deep eyes.
Horus curled his lips and crossed his legs on the chair in front of the bed. "Do you think he can defeat me here? I can easily enter the inner palace just by following that fool Terra?"
"Don't underestimate the guards here, they are definitely not as simple as you think." Tuvia sat up and walked to the window and closed the door and window tightly.
Horus stared at her thoughtfully for a moment, and raised a charming smile on his lips, "Oh? Did you discover something here?"
Along the way, he noticed that there were too many soldiers guarding the front hall. Patrolling guards could be seen everywhere, but after entering the inner point, there was no one around. How could he not notice such a strange phenomenon?
"No." Tuvia rejected his guess.
"No? Then why are you so sure? I think the guards here are just like this. If they are really powerful, how could I get in so easily?"
Tuvia glanced at him, and then said calmly, "How far is the place where you live from the inner courtyard?"
Horus listened to her question and carefully recalled what happened along the way.
"I didn't walk long when I followed Terla and I got here."
"That's right." Her eyes were full of understanding, and she picked up a cup of tea and took a sip.
"Does this have anything to do with me breaking in so easily?"
Tuvia explained calmly, "Terra is the personal bodyguard of Ya-god. The place where he lives must be closest to the inner courtyard. I have asked about it and the only ones left in the inner courtyard except Ya-god are some maids.
Except for Terra and his subordinates who can enter the surrounding soldiers, no one else is allowed to break in without permission."
"Ya Shen? Is that the Corpse King?"
Tuvia nodded, "Yes, he is the Corpse King you call him, but his appearance is different from what we imagined."
"What?" Horus playfully played with the tea cup in his hand. "Isn't he a guy covered in rotten flesh?"
Seeing Horus deliberately belittling the sub-god, Tuvia laughed out loud.
"Of course not. He is a man about the same age as you, and he is also very handsome. If I guessed correctly, the mute we met in that dilapidated house that day was probably him."
Horus carefully recalled the situation when he met the mute that day, "I remember that the mute's face was very dirty that day, and his hair was all covering his face. How can you be sure that he is the Corpse King?"
"I'm not sure, but when I saw Yashen, he gave me the feeling that he was very close to the mute Chinese 1892. In short, even if they are not the same person, they definitely have a deep connection."
Horus fell into deep thought. If Tuvia said it according to what he said, he found her so easily tonight only because the security in the inner courtyard was loose and the main troops were in the front courtyard.
"It seems difficult for us to leave here?"
Tuvia put the tea cup in her hand on the table, and poured the remaining tea on the table. Then she stretched out her hand and drew four connected circles.
"What are you doing?" Horus looked at the pattern she drew and asked strangely.
Tuvia glanced at the four circles she drew. She didn't understand it at first, but after listening to what Laxi and Ennas said today, she thought about it in private.
Now she can almost understand the formation here.
"If I'm not wrong, this place looks like the pattern I drew, and where we are now is in the innermost circle."
After she said these simple words, Horus quickly understood.
"The outermost layer is the formation of the living dead subordinates, and going inward are the mummies buried in the sand as the second defense. The third layer is the guards guarding the outer perimeter of the palace."
"That's right, he sets up ambushes in circles like an iron wall, making it difficult for people to guard against. Even if someone breaks through his first line of defense, most of their energy will be consumed.
It will be even harder to go inside."
Horus' face turned gloomy. "So, even if someone wants to break in from the outside to rescue us, it will be very difficult, and it is even more impossible for us to get out from here?"
Tuvia gave a rare sigh, "Unless there is something huge that can fly to take us away, there is no need to think about these things."
Horus chuckled, "This is not impossible."
He stared into Tuvia's eyes and asked the question he was most concerned about, "What did that damn Corpse King say when he saw you alone?"
"This has nothing to do with you." She was not willing to tell him about it yet.
"Hmph! Even if you don't tell me, I can guess the general content. Is he attracted to you and wants you to be his corpse princess?" Horus's eyes were burning, and he wanted to smash that damn man of Yashen immediately.
Thousands of corpses.
The more she saw Horus's look, the more Tuvia was unwilling to say anything more to him.
"You don't need to worry about this. The most important thing for us now is to find a way to leave here in three days."
Horus's cold moment contained speculation: "He gave you three days?"
Tuvia didn't say anything or deny it. She knew that Horus was so smart that he could guess some things without her having to explain them.
Seeing Tuvia's expression, Horus clasped his hands tightly and made a squeaking sound, "Okay, within three days I will find a way to take you out of this hellish place."
Tuvia was about to say something, but Horus's eyes suddenly flashed.
"Someone is coming! Remember not to have too much contact with that man in these three days. I will find a way to take you away."
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure quickly disappeared from here.
"Knock knock knock--------"
Not long after Horus left, the door of the dormitory where Tuvia lived immediately rang with the sound of evil spirits.
She walked over and opened the door, and was a little surprised when she saw the man outside.
"What are you doing here in the middle of the night?" she asked in a nonchalant tone.
Yashen was wearing a white singlet, with the beige skin on her chest exposed and her long hair tied loosely behind her head. There were two strands of hair hanging playfully on her cheeks in front. The overall look was very lazy and charming.
When he saw the white tulle group Tuvia was wearing, his heart rippled slightly.
"I can't sleep, so I wanted to come and see you." He said with tenderness in his mouth.
Tuvia had doubts in her heart, why she always felt that this man looked at her strangely. Tuvia saw tenderness and deep love for her from his expression.
Such words don't seem to fit the two of them. After all, in Tuvia's heart, God is just a stranger they meet for the first time.
"Don't you invite me to come in and sit down?" Yashen lowered his head and looked at her.
Tuvia made a way, and the white dress she was wearing revealed the spring scenery in front of her. Yashen's eyes became dark, and Tuvia followed his gaze.
He stretched out his hand to gather his clothes, "You shouldn't come here to disturb others if you can't sleep at night."
Listening to the displeased objections from the woman in front of him, Yashen pretended not to hear and ignored her, then walked in.
Tuvia looked at that stalwart figure, and her heart was slightly shaken. She reached out and touched her heart, feeling that it was beating fiercely.
Why is there such a reaction? Has she ever seen this man before?
Yashen had no intention of sitting down after entering the room. He stood in the center of the hall, looking around the room with his eyes. At this time, his clear blue eyes were glowing with a faint starlight.
He seemed to have an unknown aura surrounding him, and Tuvia lost her dislike for him in an instant.
"Bang------"
She closed the door and walked to the chair to sit down.
The sound of the door closing brought Yashen back from his thoughts. He turned around and stared at Tuvia's face in a daze.
"What? Do you think everyone here has voyeurism? Are they always looking at me like that?"
Yashen chuckled and walked to her side, "Aren't you already asleep? Why are you still interested in drinking with others in the middle of the night?"
Tuvia put the tea cup to her mouth for a moment, quickly put away her surprise, then raised her eyes and said calmly, "Can't I drink two glasses of water at the same time? Isn't this my habit?"
Yashen no longer cared about this matter. He knew full well that Tuvia was lying to him, but he believed that no one could come in and out alive at will.
It was just some small tricks behind the scenes, but he didn't take it seriously.
Looking at the man in front of him who seemed to be controlling everything, Tuvia urged him impatiently.
"If you have nothing to do, please go back and rest. If you don't sleep, someone else should."
Yashen picked up a water glass and filled himself with tea. "I think you might not be able to sleep even if I don't come, right? You must be thinking hard about how to escape from here successfully."
"No! You are wrong. I am not in a hurry now. There is good food and drink here and there are so many servants taking care of me. Why should I run around?" Tuvia said with a smile on his face.
, his eyes are very clear and transparent.
"You don't have to act here anymore. I know exactly what kind of character you are. Nothing can hold you back. You are a person who cannot stand the slightest restraint and is invincible."
Yashen's words touched her heart, Tuvia's eyes darkened, "Then why are you still trying so hard to trap me here? You should know that even if I marry you, I will not stay here with peace of mind."
.”
"I have never wanted to keep you. I am not Anubis. My love for you is special. Not only will I help you find the Holy Book, but I will also help you leave Egypt and return to your homeland."
world."
Tuvia's eyes widened, and she was completely shocked by what Yashen said, "You----why?"
She always thought that she was quite thoughtful and had a good eye for identifying people, but she really couldn't see through this man.
What was the purpose of what he did? What good did it do to him? Unless he wanted to threaten the man with himself?
Yashen saw Tuvia's thoughts and clarified before she could doubt, "I'm not that despicable, and I don't even bother to use a woman's life as a bargaining chip on a man's battlefield."
He said this in a serious and upright manner, as if Tuvia's idea had insulted his character.
"How can I trust you? I won't be stupid enough to believe that you are helping me without any purpose."
Yashen sneered. At this time, the look in his eyes when he looked at Tuvia no longer had the affectionate and comfortable look just now, but an extremely normal look, showing the attitude he should have towards strangers.
"Of course I have my own reasons for helping you like this."
Tuvia really couldn't understand the meaning of his words. What was the reason why he worked so hard to catch her back? If he didn't use her as a bargaining chip, she really didn't know what other reasons there were.
"Since you don't really want to marry me, why do you want me to marry you?"
She was just curious, but when she asked this question, she found that it seemed a bit awkward for her to ask this question, and it seemed more like a complaint. It was misunderstood.
Sure enough, Yashen leaned close to her face and said in an evil and enchanting tone, "It seems you really want to marry me."
Tuvia stared at him coldly, "You can try. If you marry me, you will lose your life at any time."
Yashen stopped joking with her and sat upright, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in a strong woman like you at all. You're not what I want."
After speaking, he smiled mysteriously, "It's really getting late. There are only two days left in the three days. You'd better think more quickly."
He stood up, turned around and left without stopping.
Tuvia has some doubts. The purpose of this man's coming here is not to talk to her, but to find something here. Or what this house can remind him of!
Because she just saw this man's eyes were as gentle as water when he looked at this house, as if he was seeing his beloved.
When he turned around and saw himself, his eyes were filled with joy and full of longing. But this look did not make Tuvia feel that it was him he was looking at.
After Yashen left, Tuvia sat on a chair and meditated for a long time.
At present, she has many things that she doesn't understand. Why is Yashen willing to help her find the holy book and help her go back? And what is his identity? Why does he know everything about her and Anubis?
No matter what the reason is, Tuvia has always believed that there is no unreasonable reason and there is no willing help. He must have an ulterior secret in doing so.
It seems that she must step up her action in the next two days.
