Goddess will bless Uruk

"what are you doing?"

Enkidu put the seeds in the dug pit, then slowly covered the pit with soil, and said.

"These are the seeds I found on the road, just some ordinary flowers." Enkidu said, then stood up, looked at the lush trees, and continued

"It must be able to grow into a beautiful flower bush in the future, from tiny seeds to colorful flowers."

"Don't you think this process is beautiful?" Enkidu said

"It's always amazing when a seed breaks out of the ground," says Sally Yeh

"Do you know the name of this forest?" Enkidu asked

"Is this a forest?"

"Strictly speaking, this forest has no name. It is just a forest located in the southwest of Uruk City. Most of the people in Uruk call it that."

"However, I have been here when I was traveling before, and the villagers living in this forest call it the Forest of Sugi." Sally replied

"The Forest of Sugi, I will remember this name and this place." Enkidu said in a gentle tone

At noon, the group arrived at the city on the edge of the dense forest, the city of Ur, which was still some distance away from Uruk.

"This is the city of Ur, a city far away from Uruk. Passing through the city of Ur is the plain area, and Uruk is located in the center of the plain."

"Although there is still a certain distance from Uruk, the customs and customs have not changed at all." Sally said.

"The wheat wine produced in Uruk can be very delicious. Why don't you try it? Even here, you can taste it."

"Wheat wine?" asked Enkidu

So, Sariye brought Enkidu to the small hotel in Ur.

"Hello, customers from afar, what do you want?" The shop owner looked at Sally and Ye and greeted them enthusiastically.

At this time, Sally, in order to avoid being recognized and causing trouble, she put on the hood on the white robe, so the shop owner did not recognize Sally.

"Just some food and a jug of wheat wine."

"Okay, no problem, the customer wait a moment." The owner responded

So Sariye and Enkidu sat in their seats, tasting the aroma of wine and food, Enkidu said

"It smells so good, the smell of earth and nature."

"Yes, this is a specialty of Uruk. It is a gift from the land. The guests come from other places, so you have to taste it well to make the trip worthwhile, haha." The shop owner said.

"Yes, the aroma of this wheat wine is comfortable, and you can feel the simple heart of the person who brewed this wine. Presumably the people who lead this land are also like this wine." Enkidu said

"Ah, lord, since the previous king Lugalbanda passed away, the new king Gilgamesh has inherited the throne, although the new king should really be happy when he succeeds." A guest A in the hotel said.

"However, the character of the new king is too self-contained. It is said that the new king never listens to the opinions of officials, even the words of the high priest Siduri." Guest A continued.

"Hey, is there such a thing!" Enkidu said in surprise

"Yes, the new king is indeed like that. Even the officials privately said that the new king is mean and ruthless. He is a ruthless king who only regards his own benchmark as the absolute standard." Another customer B in the store said

"This is too much." Enkidu said

"Ah, not only that, it is said that King Gilgamesh loved treasures the most, and he often talked about collecting all the treasures in the world and so on. I really can't imagine the future of Uruk in the future." Guest B said slightly worried

"Is that so..." Enkidu frowned and said

"It would be great if the vice priest was still here. I miss the time when the vice priest was there. The people of Uruk are very grateful to her, but..." Guest A said

"My lord deputy priest?" Enkidu asked suspiciously.

"Well, in the past, besides the high priest Siduri, there was also a deputy priest appointed by the previous king. It is said that the high priest was originally succeeded by the deputy priest, but for some reason he gave way to Siduri. , although Lady Siduri is also very kind." Guest A said

"So, isn't the deputy priest in Uruk now?" Enkidu asked

At this time, Sally Yeh, who was sitting by the side, was wearing a hood and drinking wine silently...

"Well, Lord Vice Priest, if you become a goddess, you will definitely protect us in the sky." Guest B said

"Become a god?" asked Enkidu

"God Anu announced this to the earth a few days ago. I didn't expect the deputy priest to be the goddess who came to the mortal world to help us." Guest A said

"It's really good, this is the blessing of all the people of Uruk." Enkidu said

"Ah, our city of Ur and its neighboring cities have already applied to the king to build the temple of the deputy priest. Presumably the deputy priest will hear our voice, haha." The guest C who interrupted the topic said

"It will." Enkidu said, not aware of other things.

Sally, who was on the side, put down the cup, as if she was thinking about something, and then picked up the cup again.

"Hmm, haha, but, it is said that King Gilgamesh loved the deputy priest when he was young, and he has been pursuing him, but the deputy priest didn't like the king, and the previous king didn't approve of it, so the matter didn't work out." Guest C said.

"Later, the late king passed away. It is said that the deputy priest left Uruk to avoid the pursuit of King Gilgamesh who succeeded him, but King Gilgamesh never forgot, and he still retains the position of the deputy priest. Well, ahaha." Guest C continued with a smile

At this moment, Sally Yeh, who was sitting by the side, picked up the cup, and her hands trembled as soon as she reached her mouth...

"I didn't expect that King Gilgamesh had such a side." Enkidu said with emotion

"Yes, God Anu has already declared to the earth." Guest C said

"Then, I'll be leaving first." Guest C said goodbye after saying goodbye, and the rest of the guests also said goodbye

"Well, we are leaving too, thank you." Enkidu thanked

"Cough, cough." Sally Ye coughed slightly, as if choking on the drink

"Then, let's go too, continue to Uruk." Sariye said afterwards

"Well, let's go." Enkidu responded.

.

Walking on the road, Enki couldn't help asking Sally Yeh

"The deputy priest has become a god, and you are also from the realm of the gods."

"Have you met the deputy priest in God's Domain, Sally?"

Sally Yeh, who was walking in front, stopped and turned her head when she heard the words.

"What's wrong?" Enkidu asked.

Sariye looked at Enkidu, then took off the hood on his head, and said helplessly

"Hey, let me tell you, the deputy priest..."

"It's me."

"Hey!" Enkidu looked at Sariye's delicate face and said in surprise

"What did you say that Gilgamesh pursued me, and then I left Uruk to avoid his pursuit..."

"Who spread the rumor... I must erase the memory of the rumor maker." Sally said as if holding a grudge

"Ahahaha~"

At the edge of the dense forest, Enkidu's happy laughter came.

PS: I didn't post it on time... I had to delete it and repost it

Chapter 12 012 The Wedge of the Sky and the Lock of the Sky

"Ah, it's so lively!"

"Is this Uruk!" Enkidu said looking at the dense flow of people in the bustling city of Uruk.

It was already close to sunset at this time. After passing through the dense forest, Sariye and Enqidu passed through the plain in the northern part of the dense forest, and finally arrived at Uruk after passing through a small town. Although the two had been walking on foot, Didn't feel tired at all.

"Ah, Uruk is the heartland of this land."

"No matter what time of day, you can see its lively scene." Sally Yeh said.

"Speaking of which, I haven't been back for a while. I have experienced a lot during this period, and the changes here have been quite big." Sally said.

After speaking, Sariye and Enkidu entered the city of Uruk.

Walking on the streets of Uruk, Enkidu saw the pagoda temple in the center of the city, where the king's city was located.

"Is that, the palace?" Enkidu asked.

"Well, that's the royal city, where the current leader of Uruk, King Gilgamesh, is inside." Sariye replied.

"Gilgamesh...?" Enkidu said, looking at the royal city in the distance.

.

In the palace at this time

"King Gilgamesh, this is about..." An official knelt on the ground and reported to Gilgamesh, who rested on the throne with his head on his hands and his eyes closed.

"I'm so annoying, I'll solve this kind of trivial matter by myself, get on!" Gilgamesh scolded without even opening his eyes.

"But, king!" said the official as if embarrassed

"Do you want me to repeat it a second time?" Gilgamesh opened his eyes and said slightly angrily

"Yes..." The official withdrew helplessly.

"Hey, give me the report, and then you step back." Siduri, who was standing aside, sighed, and then said to the official

Afterwards, the official gratefully handed the clay tablet to Siduri and stepped back.

Then, after the official stepped back, a woman who looked like a priest stood behind him, with a look of fear in her eyes. She looked at Gilgamesh, who was sitting on the throne without a glance, and stood The high priest Siduri on the side, then, as if she had made up her mind, took the clay tablet in her hand, knelt down and said

"King Gilgamesh, this is about the construction of our city of Ur and neighboring cities..." the woman said tremblingly

"What kind of building, what god do you want to enshrine, and if you need funds, ask the Minister of Finance." Gilgamesh said impatiently

"Yes..." the priestess finished with a little disappointment, and stood up, then Siduri walked down helplessly to take the clay tablet, glanced at it roughly and said

"Which god are these temples dedicated to?" Siduri asked.

"Back to the high priest, these are the temples dedicated to the goddess Sally, and Sally has been helping us. This is the decision of all the people in Ur City and neighboring cities, so that Sally can hear us. voice," said the priestess

"That's it, then leave this matter to..." Siduri said

"Huh? Is it for that guy..." Gilgamesh narrowed his eyes and said after listening

"Bring the tablet to me, Siduri." Gilgamesh said.

After hearing this, Siduri was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward and called the clay tablet in her hand to Gilgamesh.

Gilgamesh took it over and looked at the contents of the clay tablet

"Idiot, are you building such a temple to make me laugh out loud?" Gilgamesh said angrily.

"The two newly built temples combined are not as large as the Inanna Temple in Uruk!" Gilgamesh continued.

"Do you want this king to punish you?" Gilgamesh stood up, holding a clay tablet, and sternly reprimanded

The priestess below immediately knelt down and begged King Gilgamesh for forgiveness

"Go down, the matter of building a new temple will be left to the king." Gilgamesh sat back on the throne, and then said

"Yes, thank you for the great kindness of the king." The priestess finished, because in the original plan, King Gilgamesh was able to agree to the construction of such two temples. Sure enough, the rumors that King Gilgamesh had extraordinary feelings for the deputy priestess were true, the priestess thought so, and retreated.

.

Under the pagoda temple of the royal city of Uruk, Sariye and her party finally arrived under the pagoda temple. Sariye felt a little emotional about returning to the royal city again. Now the person on the throne here is no longer Lugarbanda.

Walking forward, the two guards in front looked at Sariel and Enkidu who were wearing hoods, and said

"Who are you?"

Sally looked at the two guards, they were the same two guards she met in the royal city when she first came to Uruk a few years ago, and she couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Even though the figure on the throne is different, Uruk is still Uruk." Sally thought

"If you have nothing important to do, please leave, both of you." The guard said

Sally came back to her senses, looked at the guard, then put down her hood, and said

"Don't you know me? You two, we meet again!"

"You are! The deputy priest..., no, it's the goddess!" The guard recognized Sally's appearance, and then said in surprise, thinking that he would never see the person who has become a god and once took care of them. ,did not expect.
