Chapter 354: Transmigrating into the Egyptian God Chapter: The Slave Trader Who Ended Miserably (32)
"Do you want to discuss the price? No problem~
Oh, yes, the compensation from last time was left at the temple, I want to take this one with me, is that ok?"
Seth had a forced smile on his face, but because Qi Heng was present he tried his best to suppress his temper.
Horus nodded and said, "Okay, I will take care of the property stored in the temple before Mother wakes up."
"Very good, let's talk outside."
Horus was dragged out of the bedroom by Set, and Qi Heng was the only one left in the bedroom.
The little fat bird had sharp eyes and noticed something strange about Isis on the bed at a glance. It couldn't help but tap Qi Heng's neck with its beak as a reminder.
"Choo Choo Choo."
Seeing the black air coming out of Isis' mouth, he quickly used the power of light to help her clear it away.
Isis tried hard to wake up, but her body was too heavy and any resistance was in vain.
She was conscious and could hear the outside sounds at any time, but she could not move, as if her body no longer belonged to her. After lying in bed for more than a month, Isis was almost going crazy!
Warm divine power enveloped my entire body, and the heaviness in my body became slightly lighter. The change was very obvious.
It actually works!!
A huge joy hit Isis, making her dizzy.
Then I felt complicated. It was Set's believer again. Really, why did I believe in Set?
Isis really wanted to open her eyes and say thank you to Qi Heng, but her body was temporarily unable to move, and she felt extremely depressed.
"Come here, we should go back and don't disturb the Magic Goddess's rest."
When everything in front of me is pitch black, my hearing becomes extremely sensitive.
"Chirp chirp~"
"Okay, come up, I'll take you to eat something delicious." The male voice was gentle, not very pleasant to hear, but it seemed to have magic that made people want to hear it again.
Something flew away from her chest, and Isis's eyelashes trembled. It turned out to be a bird.
This bird is so brave that it dares to fly onto me.
"I'll take my leave." The man's footsteps became farther and farther away.
For some reason, Isis didn't want Qi Heng to leave. She would feel safer if a doctor or something kept around.
I don't know what happened to that little Anubis. I helped him suppress the pollution, but I suffered such a serious backlash. I'm so unlucky.
For the next four days, Qi Heng went to the bedroom to clean up the dirt for Isis every morning. During the cleaning, Horus and Set, the two grown men, did not go anywhere but stood outside the bedroom staring at each other, being wary of each other.
From time to time, Horus would sneak a peek at little Qi Heng, who seemed to be hesitant to speak. Set could guarantee that he was definitely not holding back.
During the four days of cleaning Isis, Set was determined not to let Horus and little Qiheng be alone.
Horus wanted to say something to Qi Heng, but Set was watching him closely and he was helpless.
He only had two hours free in the morning, and the rest of the time was flooded with messages from all over Egypt, keeping Horus busy.
After being blocked for four consecutive days, Horus gradually lost his patience in confronting his uncle.
This time, before Set could speak, Horus took the lead.
“I need to communicate with Qi Heng about my mother’s condition.
My mother has been in a coma for too long and I am worried about her.”
Seth was choked by the impeccable reason, but then he thought that this was Qi Heng's last day treating Isis.
The caravan outside the temple was already resting, waiting for Qi Heng to finish their work before setting off for the Temple of the Sun.
Seth crossed his arms and took a step back to open the bedroom door. "Go in. Don't blame me for not reminding you to be careful with your words in front of Isis. Don't say anything too explosive."
Mother is not in a coma? Horus frowned, his eyes flashing with thought. "I know."
In the sleeping hall—
Qi Heng cleaned out the impurities in Isis' body and made sure that there was no residue left before he let out a sigh of relief and put away all his divine power of light.
The goddess on the bed seemed to move. Was she about to wake up?! Qi Heng blinked and wanted to go out and call Horus in. As soon as he turned around, he met the eyes of the man behind him. His heart almost jumped out of his throat!
"Horus, when did you come in?"
"…Just in, my mother."
"It's been cleaned up. Come over and check it again." After saying that, he grabbed Horus' arm and walked towards the big bed.
"Qi Heng..."
"Ok?"
"nothing…"
Horus bent down and gently pinched Isis's wrist to input divine power. After making sure that there was no more dirty breath remaining in his mother's body, he put the arm back in place.
A smile appeared unconsciously at the corners of his lips.
Turning around, he saw Qi Heng waiting beside him. Horus' eyes moved slightly under his crown.
"What did you go through in the underworld? Are you okay?"
"It's just that the monster is a little hard to get rid of, everything else is fine." Qi Heng bowed. This is the most basic etiquette for ordinary people in front of the King of Egypt.
"I heard from Set that you met Osiris. He is in the underworld... I hope he didn't give you any trouble."
If I remember correctly, Hades Osiris is Horus' father, but the tone doesn't seem like it at all. Qi Heng raised his eyes and glanced at Horus.
"No, Lord Pluto is quite friendly to me."
Horus nodded and said, "I see the caravan outside the temple has been repaired. Where are you going next?"
"Didn't the Lord tell you?"
"Seth can be pretty tight-lipped sometimes, so I wanted to ask you something."
"I'm sorry, since the Lord God doesn't want to say it, I have nothing to say."
“…Be careful on the road.”
"Ah."
"Did you keep the feather I gave you?"
"Yes, it's in the bag." Qi Heng pointed to the small layer of the bag where the fat bird and the clay figurine lay.
"If you encounter danger, please be sure to input your divine power into the feather, and I will rush over to save you as soon as possible." He felt that it was a bit abrupt to say this directly, so he added
"Thank you for saving my mother. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I would have done."
The second half of Horus' words calmed Qi Heng's nervous heart a little. "I will. I'll take my leave."
“…Hmm.” Horus stared at Qi Heng’s back until the man walked out of the bedroom and disappeared, then he withdrew his gaze with a sense of unfulfilled desire.
I felt empty inside, and I was never able to say what I really wanted to say.
Horus explained to himself that he should wait until the time was right, until Qi Heng finished his subordinates' work and had free time, and until he had dealt with Set's mess.
When everything is over, I will muster up the courage to find Qi Heng... and say what is in my heart, no matter what Qi Heng's reaction is.
Then follow him firmly.
“…Mother, how long are you going to pretend to be asleep?”
Isis' eyelids trembled, and she slowly opened her eyes. "Horus, is it interesting to point out your mother's secret?"
"You don't want to see Set."
"!!! No way! I was a little confused just now, but I'm awake now. Are they gone?" Isis sat up and rubbed her head pretending to be in pain.
"I'm gone, but if you want to see it, you can still catch up with it if you go out now."
"Who wants to see him? Tell me how much gold Set has cheated us out of?"
Horus pointed out a number, a number that was enough to make Isis' eyes go dark.
"Damn Set!"
