Lost Lamb

There are more than a thousand people living in Sumer Town, and it is already a small rural market town, but Amon has never been to other places, and he thinks that this town is much smaller than Duque Town. But the sky here is very blue, and the clothes people wear are mostly light linen or cotton cloth. Seeing the fields and sheep in all directions, as well as those livestock and chickens and geese, it is obviously much richer than Duque Town.

But the house here does not look beautiful and strong, and it seems to be poorer than Duque Town. When they walked past the temple in the town, Amon was even a little surprised-the temple here was actually covered with wood, and there were only two floors that were not high compared to the lapis lazuli and white marble in Duque Town The magnificent temple is far away.

He murmured: "Why do people here use wood to build the shrine? Most houses are also made of wood, are n’t you afraid of fire?"

Yin Nana whispered a sentence: "It is very expensive to transport the stone out of the mountain and reprocess it. It is cheap and convenient to repair the house with wood .... but the shrine is made of snow fir, and the general wood is Different. "

Amon: "Which kingdom is this, and what gods are enshrined in the temple?"

Yin Nanna: "This is the territory of the Kingdom of Barron, and the Temple of Enril was built."

Amon was puzzled and asked: "I heard that the Master of Gods worshipped by the Kingdom of Barron is the Marduk king, and the Master of Gods worshipped by Hati and Assyria is the great God of Enril. Why did I build Enli here? Temple? "

Yin Nanna shrugged her shoulders and said: "Maybe the realm of God is not exactly the same as the national borders. In the territory of Barron, the city states east of the Youdi River built the Marduk temple, and the west of the Youdi River. The temples are all Enril, but the temple also enshrines the Marduk and other gods .... Anyway, they are all the same gods. According to the legend of the world, is n’t Enril the uncle of Marduk? "

Amon nodded and said, "Oh, that's what it is."

Amon no longer asked, but Yin Nanna asked back: "Amon, don't you feel curious?"

Amon turned his head and looked at her: "What's so strange, isn't Enril not Marduk's uncle? As far as I know, the king of the All-Egyptian Empire is Horus, but he went to Egypt. The most important temple in the house is the Temple of Isis, which also houses Horus and other gods. "

Yin Nana blinked: "I mean this is the case of dividing the temple along the banks of the Youdi River. How was it formed at the earliest? Are there any agreements between the gods? Are you curious?"

Curious? The curiosity of the gods sent the lives of the old maniac and Bell, and there were so many people buried, and Amon also embarked on an unknown rugged and dangerous path. He did n’t want to be entangled with this question in front of Yin Nanna, and replied with a wry smile: “What ’s the use of curiosity, I ’m a little mortal, and do n’t know Marduk or God of Enlil, there is no place to ask .... Yin Nanna, you know this place , Where can I buy clothes? Let ’s go buy clothes first. "

Yin Nanna turned Amun into a side street in the town and entered a shop. A 16-year-old and a 7-year-old boy greeted them and said, "Do you want to buy clothes, just take a look, we The store is the best in the vicinity, with fabrics and ready-made clothes. "

Amon buying clothes is very simple, pointing to himself: "I want to get ready, I can wear it."

The guy glanced at him. Obviously, Amon was not a nobleman, so he took the best set of thin cotton cloth with red stripes on it, which was pretty and conspicuous, but no other colors and embroidery. "This suit requires thirty copper coins. It is cool and breathable to wear on a hot day. It is inexpensive and you can't buy it elsewhere."

Amon felt that the fabric was not strong or durable enough, and pointed to a set of burlap clothes that was also very light but tightly woven: "I want this dress, plus pants of the same fabric, Here are two sets. "

The guy replied with a little disappointment: "Even one pair of trousers, one set of ten copper coins, two sets of twenty, do you stop looking at something else?"

Amon shook his head and said, "I don't need it anymore ... Yin Nanna, choose what kind of clothes you want to buy, pick it yourself."

Yin Nanna pointed to a long dress hanging on the wall: "This looks good, I like it, will it be expensive?"

When the guy turned his head to see Yin Nanna ’s posture, she immediately felt the light in her eyes. She stared at her face and her body and could barely move her gaze. After hearing the question, she came back and answered, "This lady, You really have a vision. Among the clothes sold in our shop, this is the best color that civilians can wear. It is a little more expensive and requires sixty copper coins. "

The guy glanced at Amon while talking. Amon did n’t even care about how the guy looked at him, and he pulled out a silver coin and handed it over without thinking, “That ’s all, I bought it. Do you have a place to change clothes here, let her change the clothes first . "

The man was startled by surprise, and then nodded: "Yes, yes, there is a small door behind the counter, and you can change your clothes in the room." Then I took the silver coins and found Amon's twenty copper coins.

When Yin Nanna changed her clothes and came out, Amon couldn't help but shine. The dress she chose is extremely fit, very thin white cotton cloth, printed with indigo stripes, just outline the beautiful figure, almost all are not tempting. The young man's eyes were straightened, and Yin Nanna turned around in a very playful way and asked, "Amon, is it pretty?"

Amon nodded: "It looks good, you are already pretty, and it is more beautiful to wear this dress."

The man also amazed: "Girl, you are so beautiful, what is your name?"

Yin Nana looked back and smiled: "My name is Yin Nana. I bought your expensive clothes. Can I give you more shoes?"

So expensive clothes? Is it really expensive? Amon has no idea about this. Since clothes are expensive to buy, of course it ’s expensive, but it ’s no big deal. I bought two sets of clothes and a skirt for a total of eighty coins. It ’s not enough to buy the cheapest bottle in town. liqueur.

And that guy ’s bones were almost crisped by Yin Nanna, and he took out a pair of cloth trip shoes from behind the counter. The thick, soft hemp sole looked comfortable, and said with a smile: "Of course it is, come often , We have all kinds of beautiful clothes here. "

Yin Nana smiled at him again, but did n’t say thank you, and pointed at Amon: “It ’s not the shoes I wear, the money is paid by him, you should give him a pair of shoes that he can wear, this pair is too small Now. "

The guy "ah" was obviously disappointed, but Yin Nanna still looked at him with a smile. He took another pair of shoes that Amon could wear together with the original pair and handed it to Yin Nanna: "Okay, I will give one more pair, and the other pair of shoes will be the one I gave to the lady."

Yin Nanna said with a smile: "You little guy gave me two pairs of shoes, are you afraid that the boss will come back and scold you?"

The little guy came to the spirit all at once, and he stood up and said: "I'm afraid of it, the boss is my father, this shop is my family ... Miss, you must come often, I will give you a cheap price." Listen Looking at the tone of his words, he didn't know whether he wanted to take advantage or take advantage of it.

In the new clothes they bought, the two went to town again, which was even more striking. Pedestrians in the past almost all looked at Yin Nanna's body-her face, her breasts, her body. It would be uncomfortable to look at another person, but Yin Nanna smiled as usual.

Out of the shop, Amon asked again: "Where is there a sheep seller? Let's go buy a sheep."

Yin Nanna: "Of course it is impossible to be on the street, there is a market on the other side of the town."

Tianshu mainland countries have similar regulations. Slaves must not wear dyed fabrics, and Minping must not have embroidered clothing. Yin Nanna claimed to be a shepherdess slave, but she was wearing a floral dress dyed with indigo stripes. But Amon is still inexperienced in this area, because Duque has almost no slaves.

The residents of Duque Town are almost all miners ’homes, and only the mayor and Master Xiao Gu ’s house have slaves who are waiting for their daily lives. There are mining slaves in the mines outside the town. They do the same work as the miners and wear the same clothes. Amon just thought that Yin Nana changed the dress so beautifully, that even he couldn't help but always looked over his face and looked twice.

The two came to the market town, and the dazzling Yin Nanna caused a lot of commotion. Amon was not afraid of people watching. He thought that he dared to look directly at Aiko-Maria. He was regarded as a deity in the caveman savages tribe. In Duque town, he has not only become the center of public attention more than once. What is it? He just vaguely felt something wrong, but did not figure out what was wrong.

Almost every stall owner would come to greet diligently, and then inadvertently swept Amon ’s linen and straw sandals, his expression was a bit strange, as if it felt a pity that Yin Nanna and him stood together.

But when I went to the fair, I couldn't find the white sheep with black spots that Yin Nanna said. Her expression seemed very disappointed as if she was about to cry again. Amon comforted: "Is it OK to change a sheep? Anyway, what you lost is a sheep. I can give you a bigger and better one."

Yin Nanna pouted and shook her head: "No, what I am looking for is such a sheep. From here, there is a town, and there are sheep pastures, there are more sheep, we go to the shepherd to buy a good one Is it? "

Amon nodded and said, "Well, let's find it."

They have swaggered in Sumer Town. Almost everyone in the town is talking about a guy wearing straw shoes and burlap, leading a very charming girl here. The girl was wearing shabby clothes, and the young man led her to the old Joseph's tailor shop and bought a beautiful and expensive new dress. It is said that the young man bought only two sets of coarse linen, and took advantage of stingy, so the girl asked Joseph to ask for two pairs of shoes.

Life in the town is dull and boring, this kind of thing is the most popular topic. People are talking about it, it must be the guy who kidnapped the girl who eloped to pass by here, the two should come from far away, because the guy spoke with a Hattie accent.

Amon followed Yin Nanna to the town, and she really saw the free-range sheep grazing there. Yin Nana suddenly surprised and said: "Look, that is the sheep I am looking for"

Amon turned his head and froze: "Yin Nanna, how are you pointing at me?"

Yin Nanna patted him: "Look over there."

Amon turned his head to look to the other side, and there were a few black lambs in the flock. At this time, Yin Nana ran over in a small step, squatted down and hugged a sheep and yelled in surprise: "This is it, Amon, it is the one I lost"

"Miss, don't talk nonsense, that's my sheep." The shepherd with a long pole whip came from afar, and he shouted unhappy, a burly old man.

Amon hurried over to remind Yin Nana: "How could this be your sheep, and it can't fly, can you come here from such a far place, are you wrong?"

The old man glanced at Amon and said to Yin Nanna, "This is my master ’s sheep. I rushed them to the hillside every morning to eat grass. I drove them back to the sheepfold every evening. , This sheep is definitely not yours. "

Yin Nana hugged the sheep without letting go, and started crying at Amon: "But this is the sheep I lost, I know it, Amon, you help me"

The shepherd is angry: "Beautiful girl, you ca n’t be so unreasonable that it ’s my sheep."

It seems that the two of them are going to argue. If Yin Nanna is not a girl, the old shepherd is probably going to whip. Amon quickly stood in the middle and persuaded: "It may be a sheep that looks similar. She has been looking for a day. It is inevitable that she is anxious. So, I want to buy this sheep. How much is it worth?"

The shepherd had n’t spoken yet, but Yin Nanna stood up and pulled Amon: "This is obviously my sheep. Why do you have to pay for it? He stole my sheep"

The shepherd finally got angry and pointed at Amon ’s nose with a whip: "Alien, are you taking this girl as a robber? Be careful of my leather whip"

Yin Nanna hides behind Amon and says: "We are not robbers, you are the thief, you stole my sheep"

Amon did n’t care about the shepherd ’s whip and spread his arms and said, “Uncle, do n’t be angry. She lost a sheep exactly as she thought it was her .... I promised to help her get it back, You can pay for your sheep. "

The shepherd snorted and waved a whip: "Do not sell this is my master's sheep."

Amon: "I will give you more money, your master will not blame you but will be happier."

The shepherd glanced at him and extended **** with contempt: "Well, two silver coins, love to buy or not to buy." He hated these two foreigners, the girl said he was a thief, and a guy It is even more abominable to be in front of the girl, so I said a very outrageous price and wanted to send the two of them away.

Unexpectedly, Amon had already taken out two silver coins and handed them over. The shepherd stunned, and even forgot to reach out. Amon pulled his hand over and put the silver coin in his hand and said: "This is money, you can take it, can you send me a rope, so I can take the sheep away."

The things outside the mountain are really cheap. Amon has said that he is willing to pay more, but he did n’t expect two silver coins. The shepherd glared at Amon as if looking at some monster. The sheep was not big. Two silver coins could be bought for five. Today, he made a small fortune.

He looked at Amon for a long time, and then he suddenly recovered. He simply pulled his whip rope down and gave it to Amon: "Take this to tie the sheep, there is no other rope here. "Then I lowered my voice and whispered," You are a generous good man. Why don't you buy a good dress for you? "Although the girl is beautiful, you might not be able to splurge."

Amon said thank you, and tied the sheep with a whip and led it away from the ranch. After walking away, Yin Nanna hugged Amon's arm and sighed in his ear, saying, "Amon, don't you think I'm unreasonable? But this sheep is indeed mine, I dare to swear, it's with The one I lost is exactly the same. "

Amon smiled bitterly: "Maybe it ’s yours, maybe it ’s not yours, but there is no evidence, it is in the flock of others, unless someone proves that this sheep is coming from your flock, otherwise Take it away .... The place where you lost the sheep is far away from here, and it is unlikely that it will run over by itself. There are also many black spots in the flock of sheep, which may be really the same. "

Yin Nanna: "The spots of each sheep are different, and the sheep herder can certainly recognize it. Anyway, I would like to thank you for buying this sheep .... But why do you spend so much money? Strong, you do n’t have to be afraid of the shepherd ’s extortion, which one is your opponent? "

Amon shook his head and said, "I'm buying sheep, not grabbing sheep. If you can prove that the sheep is yours, I don't mind helping you get it back, but I can't prove it, but it's not I don't believe you. "

Yin Nana lowered her head and said: "But as a result, I owe you too much, how should I repay?"

Amon smiled: "You have repaid me, led me to town, and gave me such a delicious cake."

Yin Nana: "But your sheep are too expensive. If I don't talk that way, you won't spend so much money."

Amon shrugged: "It's not expensive, I think it's cheap."

Yin Nanna took the whip rope from Amon and led the sheep. The two crossed the market and returned to the town. Amen was looking for a place where people were smoked for nothing more than to experience various people and things, and had no specific purpose. When he returned to town, he found that people all looked at them with a strange eye, and they had to talk privately after pointing. But when he turned his head to look at the past, people turned their eyes away.

Although Amon has no experience of going out, he is not really stupid. He swept quietly to detect the magic, probably knowing what people are talking about, and he ca n’t help but feel a little funny. At this time, he also realized that Yin Nanna was by no means an ordinary shepherdess slave, and there were many people outside the mountain, including many women, not as soft and beautiful as Yin Nanna.

When walking through the town ’s tavern, Yin Nanna stopped suddenly: "Amon, you are not tired, if you are tired, you can go in for a drink."

Amon suddenly remembered something. Mayor Dasti once said that the cheapest glass of wine in a tavern outside was only a copper coin. He always doubted it and really wanted to see it. So he rushed to Yin Nanna: "I don't know if I go in for a glass of wine, will it delay your time? Or should I take you back first, it should be dark by walking out of town."

Yin Nana asked back: "Are you going to send me back?"

Amon: "You still have to go a long way after dark. Of course I will send you back. I'm not in a hurry anyway. The market town is here."

Yin Nana smiled: "Thank you for drinking or not drinking anyway. It will be dark anyway. After dark, there is still a long way to go. Let ’s go for a break first."

Alcohol is a luxury, but it is not just a noble. Many civilians have a few drinks in a tavern when they have money and leisure, which is the most luxurious enjoyment on weekdays. During the war years in the history of the Tianshu Continent, some countries once prohibited the civilians of the country from drinking alcohol because winemaking consumes a lot of food and needs to be controlled in difficult times when supplies are tight.

People drink too much and always want to complain and say something they do n’t dare to say and do something they do n’t dare to do, so pubs are often one of the most chaotic places in a town. Amen took Yinnana into the tavern and immediately heard a loud noise. But when they came in, many people spoke in a low voice. Obviously, the topic discussed in the tavern was the two foreigners who came to town today.

Amon found an empty table and sat down. There was a boss and two men. The boss came over and asked, "Young man from afar, what would you like to drink? We have the best wines nearby. "

Amun speaks directly. The first sentence is what he cares most about: "Is the cheapest wine here a cup of copper coins?"

The boss was stunned, and then smiled: "Yes, a cup of copper coins, do you want a cup?" Although he was laughing, he was somewhat disdainful in his eyes. He was already a stranger in the town. I heard that this guy is very generous to the girl, but he is very stingy, and now it seems so.

How much is a glass of wine? Amon waved his hand and said, "Come on a pot."

The boss greeted the buddy and brought a jug of wine and two glasses. Yin Nanna naturally reached over and took the jug and poured a glass of wine for Amon, but she did n’t sit down and just stood with her jug. Blindfolded.

Very few women come to the tavern to drink alcohol. Occasionally, most of them come from Ji women in the town. Ji courtyard is another chaotic place in the market town. A beautiful woman came from the town and was brought into the tavern by Amon. Everyone's eyes were focused on Yin Nanna, waiting to see the beautiful woman drinking, which was more than a small dish, but she did not expect to drink.

Amen is preparing to greet Yin Nana to sit down. The pub owner first asked: "Girl, why don't you sit down? Is it someone who won't let you sit down?"

Yin Nana Jiao smiled and explained: "No, I am a slave girl, I ca n’t sit here and drink .... Amon, you drink slowly, I stand and pour you a drink."

It turned out that the whisper in the tavern suddenly became louder, like a fly flying. The girl was a female slave brought by a foreigner. He wore cheap clothes himself, but showed off the beautiful dress of the female slave in front of everyone, and bought a dyed skirt for her in violation of the rules.

If Amon is a noble adult, and there is something beyond the limits of the beloved beautiful female slaves, no one will bother themselves. But Amon was wearing a pair of straw shoes and hessian clothes, drinking the cheapest bad wine in the tavern, and having to show her beautiful slave girl so publicly, it was a crime. A
