I am reborn as a lord in Rome

Wash your hands? Are you talking about me? Woolley looked at him in surprise, and then he saw an angry face.

The owner of the face was an old man, to be precise, an old man dressed in the costume of a temple priest, and when he glanced at the logo on the old man's clothes, Woolley could be sure that this old man, like Pompeii, was only a middle-level priest.

The old man walked quickly in front of Woolley, and after looking Woolley up and down a few times, his face softened a little: "Seneca citizen, you should be the first time you have seen the Vess Fountain, right?" Woolley

nodded, he felt that this white-haired and white-bearded round-faced old man looked a little funny, giving him the feeling of an old naughty boy.

"Well, then I can't blame you. The old man shook his head in disappointment," Seneca citizen, since you are here for the first time, I am obliged to tell you something about the Fountain of Ves, this central square belongs to the Temple, and of course, the Fountain of Ves, you can enjoy the tour here, but you must not defile or even destroy anything in this square, let alone say a word or even a sentence that blasphemes the god Amun, the former, you will be fined, and the latter, you will be arrested by the Temple, and then imprisoned awaiting trial, believe me, the consequences will be serious, do you understand?

Woolly nodded again.

"Let's go after that, and don't put your hands in the pool again. The old man shook his head and turned to stride.

"Wait a minute, please. Wu Lai smiled slightly, and when the old man turned around, he bowed very seriously, "I want to ask, these confiscated money should be used to maintain the central square."

"Yes, as you just did, you have to pay at least one silver coin, and that's for the sake of being a citizen, and the civilians have to pay a fine for cleaning the square. The old man replied.

"However, this square is not very clean. Woolley glanced around, deliberately exaggerating the facts.

The old man glanced around a few times, sighed and shook his head.

Wu Lai thought for a moment, smiled at the old man, and with a movement of his body, his hands reached into the pool again.

"Citizen!" the old man's eyes widened, but before he could say anything more, Woolley withdrew his hand with a smile, took the handkerchief handed by Janus, wiped the water stains, and then took out a gold coin from the side pocket of his belt, and handed it to the old man very respectfully.

"I guess it's hard work for you to supervise the people who enter and leave the square, and it's hard for people who do the same work as you. Woolley gently placed the gold coin in the palm of the old man's outstretched hand.

"My name is Woolley, Woolley, a freshman at the Assyrian Civic College this year. Woolley said.

"Woolly Greendo. The old man looked at Wu Lai seriously for a few moments, and slowly smiled, "You are a very interesting person, my name is Galileo, the middle priest of the temple, and the person in charge of the central square.

"Your Excellency Priest Galileo, it is a great pleasure to meet you, and I think I will come again. Woolley said with a smile.

"Welcome. Galileo nodded, and quickly turned to leave.

After Galileo walked away, Janus asked curiously, "Master, may I ask, why did you give him gold?"

Woolley gave an answer that confused Janus even more.

On that day, Woolley got lost in wandering, and when night fell, he still could not find the Civic College, so he found a nearby hotel and spent his first night in Assyria.

The next morning, Woolley's carriage finally found its destination, the Assyrian Civic College.

When the carriage stopped in front of the gates of the Assyrian Civic College, Woolley was still basking in the shock of the waterways of the Celestial Corridor. The college is located at the end of Triumph Street, which connects the college to the other main streets, and is undoubtedly the most peculiar in Assyria. The whole length of Triumph Street is 5,500 cubits, all of them are paved with ashlar stones, and parallel to this stone road is the corridor waterway that runs through the street, this kind of corridor waterway, the building is wonderful, the momentum is magnificent, the relief stone pillars at intervals of forty cubits, the heavy bluestone sink is held up horizontally, the top of the column under the groove is embedded with the oil seat of the Chinese lamp, the stone groove hangs horizontally in the air at a height of forty cubits, connected into a dragon, lying in the blue sky and white clouds, the long columns, the tall doors and the portico streets add too much color to the Assyrian city.

"Breathtaking......" Woolley muttered as he stepped out of the carriage, and when the two guards at the gate of the academy saw this, one of them hurried up to meet him.

"Hello citizen, what do you have to do?" the guard asked with a smile on his face.

Woolley smiled and handed over the letter of introduction and two silver coins.

The guard on duty was overjoyed, and after putting the two silver coins into his sleeve without a trace, he unfolded the letter of introduction and glanced at it slightly, and then returned the letter of introduction to Woolley with a smile: "Dear citizen of Woolley, although the school has not yet started, you are fully qualified to visit first, please allow me to guide you, well, this is the custom."

Woolley nodded, turning back and beckoning to Janus.

"Oh, citizen of Woolley, forgive my presumptuousness, and I may ask you, this coachman, is he a commoner or a slave, and if he were a slave, he would not be allowed to enter the Academy. The guard said hurriedly.

Woolly frowned, and immediately stretched out his hand to signal Janus to stop and wait, of course he could immediately grant Janus freedom, but this was a clear departure from his principle of encouraging loyalty and rewarding achievements.

Seeing that Woolly cooperated, the guard on duty hurriedly bowed his body and made a gesture of please: "Citizen Woolley, please inside." "

The gate of the college was fifty cubits high, and the shape of the wall was very similar to that of the city wall, and the guard said that the length of the wall of the college was 1,440 cubits from east to west, and the width from north to south was 1,220 cubits, and there was a circle of arcades in the walls, and the walls of the arcades were decorated with huge polychrome frescoes made of gold sand, stones, and shells, depicting the Assyrian conquest of Hurit. After the high walls cut off the hustle and bustle of the streets, the academy was surprisingly quiet, of course, there was also the factor that it had not officially opened yet, otherwise, the guards on duty would not have had the courage to lead Woolley to "go on a rampage".

In the huge academy, except for a few miscellaneous servants who sprinkled and cleaned, Wu Lay did not meet anyone else.

All in all, it's a spectacular college. The main building of the college is divided into two floors and is supported by marble columns. In front of the main building is a rectangular open-air courtyard, all tiled. In the center of the courtyard there are three enclosed domed buildings, of which the west side is the Book Building, which houses the original Assyrian Law Code and various texts, and the East side is the Literature and Art Building, which preserves more than 70,000 pieces of Assyrian clay tablets, including religious inscriptions, literary works, scientific documents, historical records, and legal documents. In the center is the water room, which has a marble pool, and outside the water room, there is a fountain.

The main hall of the college, which was on the south side of the college, was made of great stones, and was five hundred and forty cubits long and one hundred and fifty cubits wide. The façade of the main hall has a triumphal domed gate with floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides, supported on either side by enclosing marble columns, the top of which is spire-shaped and the capitals are plated with glittering gold leaf. The hall is also supported by marble columns that are carved with delicate patterns and red, black, and white marble carvings inlaid with gold, precious stones, and shells.

"Citizen Woolley, you might be able to familiarize yourself with it first. The guard said with a smile.

Woolley nodded and walked into the main hall.

On the top of the main hall, there is a huge crystal lamp. The south wall of the temple is frontal, with 4 delicate marble recesses and a marble pulpit. These alcoves and podiums are inlaid with colorful stones and even gemstones, with a variety of beautiful trees, flowers and geometric patterns of different shapes, which are dazzling.

As soon as he stepped out of the main hall, Woolley's eyes were drawn to the three towering spires. According to the guard, the square tower in the middle of the north courtyard wall is called the "Sword Tower", the square tower leaning against the east end of the south wall is called the "Optimus Tower", and the third tower at the west end of the south wall is octagonal and called the "Victory Tower".

I'm afraid there is some meaning. Woolley thought to himself.

"Citizen Wulai, there is another wall behind the main building of the academy, and on the other side of the wall is a continuous two-story small stone building, there are a total of one hundred and ten buildings, you will live there in the future, if you have any needs, such as buying anything or something else, you can tell me to do it, my name is Mo Li, if I can get your trust, I will be very honored. The guard nodded and said.

"Buying something?" Woolley frowned, putting on a blank look.

"Yes, anything, wine, food, or pretty maidens, Woodley citizens, the nights at the academy are boring, everybody says. Mo Li said.

"Oh, I see. Wu Lai nodded, pretending to be suddenly enlightened, and then patted Mo Li on the shoulder, "Okay, very good, if I need it, I will definitely look for you, but aren't slaves allowed to come in?

"Of course not." Mo Li hurriedly explained, "Citizens of Wulai, there are many girls like this in Assyria, of course, their prices are much more expensive than slaves, but slaves can't get here.

Woolley pondered for a moment, nodded, and suddenly asked, "By the way, the academy stipulates that students must live in the academy?" "

Not necessarily, Woolley citizens, but the cost of living here is much cheaper than staying in a hotel, besides, it's very safe here, and besides, you won't miss someone's class because you're in a hurry, believe me, some adults are very strict, and besides, the temper is a little weird, you have to be careful." Mo Li replied seriously.

"Thank you, I think, I'll take your suggestion seriously. Woolley smiled and said.

Leaving the academy, Woolley immediately went to the Temple of Amun, the religious shrine in the Assyrian territory. Of course, the Temple of Amun was just a sight to behold in Woolley's mind, and it was not enough for him to worship sincerely. It is worth mentioning that the temple of Amun and the theocracy center of the Assyrian realm that Woolley visited are two different things, although they are both called temples.

The temple of Amun was a long way from the Civic Academy, and there were two bridges to cross on the way, but this did not dampen Woolley's interest, and after the carriage drove awrigently through the streets of Assyria for most of the morning, the Woolley master and servant finally arrived at the temple of Amun before lunch.

The Temple of Amun, located on the top of a hill east of the city of Assyria, is the most famous ancient architectural site in the city of Assyria.

Mikoyan had told Woolley that the temple of Amun was built about the beginning of a thousand years ago, when it was a wooden structure. For the second time, it was built with stone. The third reconstruction took more than 17 years to complete more than 400 years ago, when the Senate and the Supreme Council of Nobles jointly financed the most famous architects of the entire territory to create this magnificent stone pillar temple.

Standing on the stone steps in front of the temple of Amun, Woolley had the feeling of asking about history. Standing before him was a rectangular white marble building, five hundred cubits long, two hundred and forty cubits wide, and one hundred cubits high, covering an area of eleven acres. The cloister of the temple has one hundred and thirty-seven columns, all carved out of marble. Each cylinder is about eighty cubits high, the diameter of the bottom is six and a half cubits, and the lower part of the column body of the cylinder has different forms of figure relief, the shape is beautiful, the form is realistic, and it is lifelike. The column top plate consists of a frame with three plate seats, which are decorated with a row of lace-like tooth ornaments, and above the frame edge is a relief carved with a four-wheeled chariot, which is delicate and exquisite. The pillars and stones are in various forms, and the whole building looks like a forest of columns, giving people a sense of solemnity, tranquility and harmony.

"Alas, more than 400 years have been preserved, and it can still be preserved so well. Woolley sighed, glancing back at Janus, who was cramped and restless at the bottom of the steps.

"Janus, why don't you come up?" Woolly frowned.

"Master, I don't dare. Janus replied quickly.

Woolley was stunned, and immediately remembered some of Mikoyan's warnings before leaving, slaves were not eligible to enter the temple of Amun, and even civilians were only allowed to enter on certain festivals or sacrificial days, knowing that this was not a temple in the city-state.

"It's a disappointment. Woolley's brow furrowed, hesitated slightly, and turned and walked down the steps.

"Master, how do you ......" Annus came up with him as he descended the last step.

"Suddenly I lost interest, let's go, go shopping. Woolley replied with a straight face.
