Chapter 352: Transmigrating into the Egyptian God Chapter: The Slave Trader Who Ended Miserably (30)
"The heart has recovered. You don't have to press it every time." After a pause, he continued, "I can send you out of the underworld tomorrow."
"Yeah." Qi Heng pulled out his wrist and nodded.
"Here is the address of the Temple of the Sun, with the safest and shortest shortcut marked. You saved me, so I must do something to repay you."
Qi Heng hesitated for a moment and then took over. "Thank you. I treated you for a purpose. It is not a favor. As long as you keep your promise and send me out of the underworld, that will be fine."
Osiris lowered his eyes and said, "I think I understand why Set placed his clone in you."
"Why?" Qi Heng was also a little curious. The red snake on his neck slowly glanced at Osiris and continued to sleep.
"Well, because you're easy to fool sometimes, and the guy who likes you is probably afraid that you'll be kidnapped."
Qi Heng frowned, "I don't understand what Lord Pluto is saying."
Osiris changed the subject without changing his expression, "There is no darkness within a few miles of the Temple of the Sun. There are holy lions guarding outside the temple, so be careful when approaching.
It's best to tell La in advance to prevent the Holy Lion from accidentally hurting you."
Qi Heng had indeed seen the Holy Lion in the classics, and knowing that Osiris was sincerely advising him, he couldn't help but put on a positive expression and nodded.
Seth curled his lips. Osiris was still as good at fooling people as usual.
As long as this guy wants, there is no one who won't have a good impression of him.
Look, little Qi Heng has been fooled. A sense of crisis came over Seth, but he forced himself to hold it back when he thought that he would leave the underworld tomorrow.
Day 2, The Border of the Underworld—
Osiris used his divine power to suppress the piles of bones in the river of Hades, preventing them from smelling the breath of living people and approaching the boat.
Qi Heng was sitting on the small boat, taking the three little ones away with him.
Whenever Qi Heng looked back, Osiris would look over and stare into his eyes. There was calmness in his dark eyes, but beneath the calmness was an emotion that Qi Heng could not understand.
Ever since his defeat to Set, Osiris never looked at the red snake again, as if a beating had taken off the label of being a brother-con.
Even the two brothers were cold to each other and ignored each other.
Qi Heng could not see through the turbulent undercurrents beneath the calm surface of the water.
The water in the underworld river is so clear that you can see to the bottom at a glance, and therefore the endless white bones at the bottom of the water are clearly visible.
They struggled frantically to break free from the shackles of Osiris's divine power, trying to break through the water surface and drag the humans on the boat into the water.
There had never been a moment that made them so eager to eat.
It is this most desired food that makes it a luxury for them to even get close to it.
All they could do was watch as the human boat reached the shore safely, and as soon as their feet touched the border with the underworld, they were lifted into the arms of a guy wearing a crown.
I feel inexplicably unhappy!
"Xiao Qiheng, I'm so glad you're okay!"
Being hugged tightly by Set, Qi Heng's body stiffened for a moment, and then slowly relaxed again. "Red Snake is with me, aren't you watching?"
"..." Qi Heng was still alive and did not die in the monster's mouth. Only when he hugged the person he had been thinking about did Seth feel it was real.
"Have you finished hugging me? Your crown is so hard."
"Ahem, sorry. Is it hard? If so, I'll take it off." After he finished speaking, the animal crown turned into sand and floated away, and his long blood-red hair spread out.
"Can you continue to hug me?"
Qi Heng turned his head away, not looking at Seth's red eyes. "...It's up to you. It's just a skeleton in the river."
It was not until Qi Heng was embraced by Set that Osiris withdrew his suppression of the River of the Underworld.
The skeletons in the river discovered that they could move, and scrambled to the shore, trying to catch the human who was making them drool.
"Puchi, don't be afraid, just bury it."
The sand and rocks at the bottom of the river rose up like waves, swallowing up the skeletons that had crawled ashore and sending them back into the river, and this cycle continued.
With the number of skeletons, they could form a country if they were all on shore, but in Set's hands they are more fragile than ants.
Once again, I have witnessed Set's fighting power. It would be a lie to say that I am not envious.
"Little Qi Heng's healing skills are amazing. Osiris recovered really quickly. Why does he want to fight again?"
Seth held the person in his arms tightly and looked towards the underworld with a forced smile.
And Osiris stood there, his dark eyes filled with gloom.
He took a last look at Qi Heng, did not answer Seth's question, turned around and disappeared into the night.
Although being ignored, Seth was not angry, but instead laughed heartily like a winner.
"My caravan is one kilometer away, walking out of the Sun Temple!"
Seeing Seth himself, Qi Heng remembered the best-of-three contest of the Nine Pillars.
"That day at the hunting ground affected your competition, you..."
"Horus used his wings before me, so I won."
Seth told the whole story of what happened after the third match, even revealing that he had given up the throne and only wanted the nine gods to work together to help him solve half of his sins.
Qi Heng nodded as he listened. He actually gave up the throne voluntarily. He was nothing like Set mentioned in the live broadcast room. It turned out that myths cannot be fully trusted.
"You go to atone your sins, and I go to the Temple of the Sun. Should we go separately?"
“No, I’ll pass through towns on the way to the Temple of the Sun, and I can atone my sins anywhere.
We agreed to never separate, did Xiao Qiheng forget that?"
The tone did not change, but it gave Qi Heng the feeling that it would be very dangerous if he answered incorrectly.
"I didn't forget, but I didn't say forever..."
The sand turned into a huge crocodile with wings. Seth hugged Qi Heng and stepped on the crocodile's back, spreading his wings and flying into the sky.
Because the frame of the car was particularly bumpy, Qi Heng felt like he was going to fall off at any time, so he quickly held on to Seth and kept silent.
At an angle that Qi Heng couldn't see, Seth's lips curled slightly.
They flew very high, so high that the camels and people walking on the ground looked as small as ants.
Once you leave the underworld, the sky changes from dark to a deep blue with the sun shining brightly.
At the end of the field of vision, you can see the edge of the town in the distance.
"The caravan is ahead. Xiao Qiheng, let's sit together."
Qi Heng thought for a while and nodded.
Seth's smile grew wider, and he rubbed his handsome face against the cheek of the person in his arms. He wanted to say, "What a good girl," but thinking of Qi Heng's reaction, he held it back.
The caravan that used to be bustling was unusually quiet today. The old man guarding the caravan saw Set and ran over excitedly as if he had seen a life-saving straw.
"God... Lord! Lord! You are finally back!"
"What's wrong?" Seth jumped off the crocodile, carefully put Qi Heng on the ground, and asked without turning his head.
"During the few days you were away, a guest came to the caravan..." He paused and leaned closer to Set, lowering his voice.
"He has wings and can fly. We can neither defeat him nor drive him away... We can only maintain a stalemate. Your Excellency, please see..."
When Seth heard the word "wings", his forehead twitched and an ominous premonition came over him.
