Egyptian Mythology: Daily Life of the Desert God

Chapter 66 Time and Planning

Seth tried his best to pretend to be clueless and asked, "Why?"

Shu held the papyrus with a complicated look on his face and said, "Hathol has a god he admires."

"She won't treat you sincerely."

"Stay away from her so that you don't get hurt."

These words reminded Seth of Eamon.

Shu should also be talking about Eamon.

As a god who existed before the creation of the world, he experienced the events of Hathor and Aemon after the creation of the world.

Combined with what Seth knew about Amon and Hathor, it can be determined that Shu was doing it for his own good.

Seth didn't plan to say much more on this topic, because if he spilled the beans, it would be all over.

Therefore, Seth looked indifferent and said, "I know she doesn't admire me."

"I don't admire Hathor either."

"She and I are just friends."

Seeing Seth being so calm, Shu said no more.

At this time, the divine pattern of the Gate of God was outlined in the mid-air of the temple.

The breath of divine patterns is Isis and Osiris.

Sensing the breath, Shu couldn't help but think of Kebu and Nut.

Those two ferocious species made Shu and Tefnut wonder for a long time whether it was the right time to give birth to them.

Inadvertently contaminated by the chaos of the great flood, they became what they are today.

"The relationship between you four is so good!" Shu couldn't help but sigh.

Set smiled, but suddenly thought of Nephthys.

The youngest girl, she seems to have disappeared after God’s decision?

Did she abandon Osiris?
No, according to the predetermined destiny, she and Osiris would definitely give birth to Anubis.

Thinking of this, Seth couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

In the predetermined destiny he glimpsed, the birth of Anubis often meant that Osiris would turn against him soon.

After that, Horus was born.

Then Horus, with the help of a group of gods, killed him.

He has not yet weaved his own destiny and authority, and cannot escape his destined destiny.

We must find ways to slow down the course of our destined destiny.

Set's first thought was to destroy Osiris's fertility.

However, he soon thought that one of Nephthys' powers was fertility.

Isis was able to give birth to Horus even when Osiris was missing a piece and was a corpse.

As the goddess of fertility, Nephthys could easily restore Osiris's fertility...

So if he killed Osiris, could Nephthys still make the body fertile?

Probably not...

and many more!

Seth suddenly realized that he was planning to kill Osiris!
Putting aside this thought, Seth calmed down his chaotic thoughts.

At this moment, Isis and Osiris walked out of the Gate of God.

Isis smiled at Shu and walked quickly to Seth.

After carefully confirming that nothing happened to Seth, she felt relieved.

Osiris stood aside, looking helplessly at Isis and Seth.

Set avoided Osiris's gaze so that he would not have to think about how to kill Osiris.

"Isis, with the current speed of changing the desert, how long will it take to complete?" Shu asked.

"Six solar months." Isis gave the answer.

Osiris added: "The desert is too vast, this is already fast."

Shu nodded slightly and said nothing more.

Seth wanted to inquire about Nephthys' situation from Isis, so he asked.

"Sister, has Nephthys gone to see you recently?"

Isis shook her head and said, "She is avoiding us."

This answer was something Seth had never expected. He was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why?"

"Because I want to take her to find Hathor." Isis was helpless.

Needless to say, Seth knew that Isis wanted to use Hathor's power of love to help Nephthys find her other half.

No wonder Nephthys is hiding, she loves Osiris.

Hathor was afraid that her secret would be exposed.

Osiris spoke up and said, "Let her calm down."

Nephthys' topic ended naturally.

After that, Isis and Osiris stayed with Seth for a while and then left.

Shu was still sitting on the side, watching the gossip among the gods.

Seth closed his eyes and thought about how to delay Nephthys from giving birth to Anubis.

And, he must get more power of faith.

Only then can he endlessly try to weave the thread of his destiny.

South of the desert.

Four women, well dressed with only their eyes exposed, rode on camels and looked around carefully.

Suddenly, the woman walking at the head of the team pointed to the distance and said: "The tent embroidered with gold coin patterns!"

The remaining three people looked in the direction she pointed.

Sure enough, I saw a tent embroidered with gold coin patterns.

The map given by a woman looking for her missing husband clearly marked her husband's tent.

Four women rode over on camels.

It was quiet all around. The leading woman stopped the three companions who were about to enter the tent and shouted into the tent.

"We are not desert bandits. Your wife asked us to find you."

After saying that, there was still no movement in the tent.

The leading woman took a stick from the camel and quickly raised the tent flap.

Ah!
The next moment, two exclamations sounded.

Looking at the mummified man, the leading woman took out papyrus and compared it.

After confirming that he was the husband the woman was looking for, she sighed. A woman who can take out a gold nugget as big as a person's head to find her husband must have a husband who truly loves her.

But the man she loved was dead.

It might take that miserable woman most of her life to accept this fact.

After a moment of pity for the lover, the leading woman called the other three people into the tent and began to collect the bodies.

You can get paid for taking the body back.

However, when the corpse was being cleaned up, a golden bead the size of a date palm rolled down from the hand of the mummy.

The leading woman identified it and confirmed it was real gold.

Then he realized that the mummy must be planning something after leaving his wife and coming here.

Combining this golden bead, the leading woman quickly asked people to search the entire tent.

Soon, a piece of papyrus marked with gold was found.

Later, the women found the covered pothole.

And dug out a gold nugget half a man's height.

They were overjoyed to get so many gold nuggets!
Afraid of meeting other people who came to look for the man, he quickly left with the gold nugget and the body.

The leading woman felt that they were walking in such a hurry that she felt itchy when breathing.

After she returns to the oasis, she must take a good rest.

Duck grass oasis.

The old priest came to the patriarch's residence.

The patriarch who was drinking saw the old priest coming and smiled and said: "High Priest, let's drink some together."

The high priest did not refuse. He sat aside and drank a glass of ale.

For the first time, he was not admonished for drinking during the day, and the patriarch was a little surprised.

In the past, when he drank during the day, the high priest would tell him not to drink when he saw him.

To prevent the clan leader from being drunk and unconscious when the clan encounters a problem that requires the clan leader to intervene.

The high priest put down the pottery cup and said with a smile: "Chief, our caravan out met a caravan coming from the plains."

"A caravan from the plains?" The clan leader was startled, then surprised.

Aren't they looking for the plain? !
Now that you encounter the caravans in the plains, you can definitely get the route map from them!

The high priest naturally knew what the patriarch was thinking, and he thought the same way.

"We have captured everyone in the Plains Caravan."

"After a few days of torture, our tribe will be able to get the road map!"

"Okay!" The clan leader clapped his thigh excitedly: "We must reward those who capture the plain caravan!"

"Yes." The high priest nodded and said, "Except for rewards."

"After eight solar days, sacrifices to the Sun God will be carried out as usual."

"Chief, I want to worship the God of Agriculture together in the sacrifice."

"No problem!" The clan leader agreed.

Twisted Forest.

In a temple built of giant trees and flowers.

Isis sat on the throne, frowning, thinking about something.

The temple is not far away.

A tall figure with green body, human body shape and tree skin walked slowly.

When it reached the entrance of the temple, it stopped and said respectfully.

"Lord God of Life, Muni has something to ask for your guidance on what to do."

"Come in." Isis' voice came out.

Muni bowed his head respectfully and stepped into the temple, walking step by step under the throne.

He awkwardly raised his hands, palms upward, and said respectfully.

"Lord God of Life."

"What happened in the Twisted Forest?" Isis asked.

"Lord God of Life, humans have been entering the Twisted Forest recently." Muni's face was full of distress: "They are holding the statue of the noble god."

"The tribesmen don't dare to expel them."

"And, to hear them talk, it sounds like they are cutting down the trees of the Twisted Forest."

"Then the land in the Twisted Forest will be planted with wheat seeds."

"At that time, we tree people will be homeless!"

Isis sighed and said: "Human beings are now favored by the gods."

"You must avoid conflict with them."

With that said, Isis took out ten red gems and gave them to Muni.

"Place the gems at the borders of your territory."

"They will be off-limits to humans."

"However, outside the scope of gems, let humans deal with them as they please."

Muni gratefully accepted the gem: "Great God of Life, the tree people will always be loyal to you!"

"Go." Isis waved her hand.

After Muni left, Isis looked at the empty temple and spoke coldly.

"Can't the plan be implemented yet?"

A man's voice replied: "You seem anxious."

“I’ll be asked this question every few days.”

"The answer is still not yet, we still need to wait."

"But it should be soon."

Isis's eyes were full of dissatisfaction, if she hadn't relied on His plan.

If you tell half of it and leave half of it, she should be killed!
"Don't be angry." The man's voice said again: "You haven't collected all the things needed for the plan."

"Go and collect it, or you won't be ready when the time comes."

"At that time, all plans will come to nothing."

Isis snorted coldly: "If the plan fails, I will seal you away forever."

"You should know that I have this ability."

After saying that, Isis took out the Ankh, opened the Door of God, and left the temple.
