Chapter 4

Author: Luozhou White Horse

Luo Wei, who was closing his eyes and waiting to die, also opened his eyes with some doubts because after a long time there was still no death he expected.

Then he met Gilgamesh's raised mouth, and the snake-like shadow reflected in those scarlet eyes.

No longer cold, but with a bit of unabashed appreciation.

"Although your barking is as annoying and disgusting as the barking of a country dog, and as disgusting as a dirt-biting bug, yet—"

"This king really feels the loyalty you show with your mortal belief."

The words are still difficult to hear, but the recognition between the words is not concealed in the slightest.

The priests breathed a sigh of relief.

Only Luo Wei looked confused and didn't know what was going on.

what happened?

who I am?

Where is this place?

Wait... shouldn't you kill me? As an extremely egoistic tyrant, how could he be so calm in the face of his subjects who angered him! ?

This doesn't fit your personality...

But no matter how confused and confused Luo Wei was, no matter how much he shouted in his heart, it was of no use.

"This king recognizes your loyalty and forgives your offense to the great and noble king."

Gilgamesh waved his hand and turned around: "Go back and cry bitterly and be grateful for the magnanimity of this king!"

"This is the end of today's affairs, this king is tired, go back to rest first!"

After leaving such a sentence, Gilgamesh stepped towards the gate.

If on weekdays, the sacrifice has not ended, a large number of people will definitely come out to stop his actions, and even his mother who is high in the sky will convey the oracle through the sacrifice.

But at this moment - it seems that both people and gods are still sluggish because of the change just now.

So no one is going to stop Gilgamesh's actions.

No need to recite those disgusting sacrifices, no need to wait here for a long time and watch all your treasures go to waste by those heavenly chops.

Thinking like this, Gilgamesh suddenly felt that Rowe did a good job.

The anger from being scolded just now has long since vanished.

As a help to the noble king——after returning, be sure to reward that guy well.

Gilgamesh went away happily.

Only Luo Wei with a dull face was left.

And many sacrifices of relief.

"Fortunately... the king is still wise and knows your intentions, Luo Wei sacrifice."

An old priest staggered to his feet and came around.

They didn't blame Luo Wei for interrupting the sacrifice at all, but were glad that Luo Wei saved his life.

"Luo Wei, why don't you tell us in advance when you do this kind of thing?"

The high priest also said: "It is better for everyone to speak together than to bear the pressure alone!"

To be honest, Luo Wei was a little moved. He knew that these old people were really good to him... but he also felt dumbfounded.

What do I have in mind?

I just want to die!

However, it seemed that his plan to use this opportunity to make Gilgamesh kill him was a complete failure.

Rowe sighed.

"Little Luo Wei, why are you so sad?"

Seeing him like this, another priest couldn't help but ask: "Could it be... Are you worried that you will be blamed by the gods for interrupting the sacrifice?"

Hearing this, Luo Wei's eyes suddenly lit up.

There really is a god in this world.

If the gods are angry because their actions prevent them from enjoying Uruk's offerings...then they can still die!

Others were worried, but Rowe had hope in his heart.

Just at this moment, someone shouted: "Look, it's God's will!"

Everyone raised their eyes and saw the upper end of the hollowed-out dome facing the statue of God King Anu, with a radiance hanging down.

That is the brilliance of God.

Although the gods cannot come to the human world, they can still convey their will.

Luo Wei was overjoyed. In his opinion, God's will must be to let him die.

The Mesopotamian plains have no shortage of gods with chicken belly.

But soon he stopped laughing.

"Sacrificing Luo Wei, you pointed out mistakes and omissions for the king who went astray, and made the king accept your loyal advice. Although you are disrespectful to the rituals of the gods, your bravery is not afraid of death, which makes the gods appreciate it."

"The gods forgive your disrespect and promise that your actions on earth will be permitted by the gods."

The priests cheered, and they praised the wisdom of the king and the magnanimity of the gods.

Only Rowe's expression froze.

'...'

He just wanted to say why!

He just wants to die, why is it so difficult?

Chapter 6 The messenger of God? The king's assistant?

Yes - Rowe remembered that Gilgamesh's wisdom was also what the gods wanted.

As a demigod Gilgamesh has always been the representative of the gods in the world.

The more wise he is,

The more it can be proved that even if the gods cannot come to the world in their own bodies, they can still shelter the human beings in this world.

So even if time is long, the beliefs left by the gods in the world can still be stable as before.

This is also the meaning of the existence of the so-called 'Qiezi'.

In the eyes of the gods, Rowe's actions just now played a big role in guiding Gilgamesh to the path of wisdom, no doubt.

So even if he accidentally interrupted the ritual of the gods, the gods would not blame him.

This is also the consequence of the two-phase balance.

But it was precisely because he understood everything that Luo Wei felt even more wanting to cry without tears.

Where is this all... How come it is so different from what I expected?

Luo Wei suppressed the full desire to complain, came back to his senses, and looked in front of him again.

The light in the temple is still there, surrounded by many standing statues. After the message of the gods is finished, the light has dissipated, and the priests also slowly stood up.

"High Priest..." Rowe looked at the old man.

The old man also looked at him.

Then he slowly stretched out the thin arm that was hidden under the linen robe, lifted the hem, and said respectfully, "Respect to the divine envoy."

As soon as the old man opened his mouth, other priests immediately responded.

They bowed down and saluted.

Is Luo Wei, who is praised, recognized, and promised by the gods, equivalent to the messenger of the gods?

Such a position is higher than any sacrifice.

To a certain extent, it is enough to compare with the king.

Of course, this is only to a certain extent, the actual gap is still huge - the king of Uruk is in charge of the city-state's military, civil, diplomatic, religious and many other issues, and the power is tight, and there is no room for it at all. question.

But even if the symbolic status is close, it is already considered Uruk's only one.

The problem is that's not what Rowe wants.

He sighed: "High priest, priests, you don't have to be so polite, I'm just lucky."

Everyone didn't know what he was thinking. Seeing that he didn't show a hint of joy, they all nodded secretly, praising the young man's stable heart, far exceeding ordinary people.

But they don't know that the happiness is theirs, and Luo Wei has nothing.

But this is the end of the matter, and Luo Wei knows that no matter how helpless he is, there is no use in regretting it.

He doesn't have the ability to turn back time now.

So I can only make persistent efforts - this time I didn't die, but in the future, there will definitely be a lot of opportunities!

After all, the era that Luo Wei is in at the moment is not a stable situation.

Life is hard.

Is it not easy to die?

Rowe regained his composure.

"Wang Youling."

Outside the temple door, there was such a voice again.

Immediately after, a tall figure with a helmet and armor to protect his vitals stepped in.

That was the king's herald.

The bodyguard of King Uruk, who specialized in conveying Gilgamesh's orders to various places.

He stepped on the floor of the temple made of flat stones, and the sound of footsteps echoed clearly in the empty interface.

The priests were all taken aback, looking at the aggressive appearance of the herald, they couldn't help but worry.

Wang... Shouldn't he want to deal with Luo Wei again?

Although Gilgamesh has never done such a thing, and although this king is cruel, he still accepts his promise even now.

It's just that the priests who have seen many of his absurd behaviors have long dared not guess the king's actions.

That's simply elusive—

Of course, Luo Wei was equally surprised, but before he had time to ponder Gilgamesh's sudden order, the herald looked around at the people in the hall and spoke up.

"Wang Youling." He said, "Sacrificing at the temple, Luo Wei, you are outrageous and bluntly collided with the great King of Uruk.

But the king is magnanimous, his heart is as vast as the sea of ​​stars, his wisdom shines like the stars, he knows that your intentions are good, so the king does not care about your rudeness, and even supports you. "

"The king ordered you to become the king's assistant. From tomorrow, go to the Uruk Palace to serve the king."

Is it worthy of being Gilgamesh's herald? Inherited stinky fart...

Rowe was speechless.

I was a little disappointed that the other party didn't come to punish me, but I was a little happy—

Serving in the immediate presence of the king, in exchange for other kings, may be a good job.

But Gilgamesh is different.

The king is like a tiger. This proverb, which has not appeared in this era, is undoubtedly the best evidence for Gilgamesh.

Moody kings are the most terrifying, because you don't know that you can offend him with your random actions.

But that's exactly what Rowe wanted.

And think about it carefully, as the protagonist of the oldest epic, Gilgamesh will have no less crisis around him in the future.

So after the herald left, in the face of many frustrated sacrifices, it was Luo Wei, the 'victim', who began to comfort them.

"Old gentlemen, don't do this." He said loudly, "It was my wish to go to the king's presence."
