“Don’t kill my sheep!”
Elisha finally picked up the sickle.
When Elisha and his family saw Elisha rushing towards Lin Ke with a sickle, their minds went blank.
Even Elisha's mother cried out "Woo", which sounded like a howl but not quite, and then fainted.
His father just looked at Nan Tong, then looked at Elisha holding the sickle, with the corners of his mouth stretched towards the ground.
"Don't move."
"Your son will survive."
"But if you dare to stand up, I won't guarantee it."
Nan Tong warned Elisha's father at this time because he saw that Elisha's father seemed to want to stand up.
After hearing Nan Tong's words, Elisha's father looked towards where Elisha was with half belief and half doubt.
"clatter."
Elisha's sickle stopped outside Lin Ke's body, as if a mysterious force blocked Elisha's attack.
Elisha only saw a few twinkling stars where the sickle stopped.
"Very good, Elisha."
In Lin Ke's opinion, Elisha's behavior has proved that the people in this land can change.
He had had Elisha prove that human actions will always trump vain prayers.
The fact that the Hebrew Empire has a young man like Elisha means that one day in the future, when the two countries conflict again, perhaps the leaders of Holy Egypt and the Hebrew Empire will be able to sit down and have a good talk.
Turn ideas into actions, rather than letting ideas be imprisoned by beliefs and viewing another civilization as an eternal enemy.
"You saved the sheep that were still alive."
Lin Ke said this, and Elisha was stunned, his tears and snot all over his face.
"......"
He was silent for a while.
"You are right."
After hearing Elisha's words, Lin Ke's expression became completely indifferent.
He was just worried that Elisha might say something like, "It is God who has given me strength."
“These sheep died because of me.”
"If I had taken up my weapon earlier, you wouldn't even have made a move."
Elisha lowered his head, and Lin Ke just pointed at the sheep that survived.
"But they live because of your decision."
"All right, Elisha."
"I will buy these dead sheep at the price of one gold coin per sheep."
"This is enough for you to buy food and continue to live."
When Elisha heard Lin Ke's words, his eyes immediately lit up.
Because the highest price a sheep can be sold for here is only equivalent to the price of a Holy Egyptian deben silver coin.
In fact, most of the time the price was only between six hundred and eight hundred Deben copper coins.
One gold coin for each head, that is far beyond the concept of astronomical figures.
Elisha looked at Lin Ke, speechless for a moment, but he just gave a slight friendly smile.
Because, for Elisha, that meant that the Holy Pharaoh in front of him did not seem to be an enemy.
"You won't kill us?"
Elisha watched Lin Ke walk towards their house and just called out softly.
Lin Ke just turned around slowly and looked at Elisha expressionlessly.
"No killing."
"Come here, your mother has fainted."
After a while, in Elisha's house, his mother woke up.
The first thing she saw was her family kneeling on the ground, casting reverent glances at a standing man.
Her son was alive, not dead.
As for the two robbers, they were still in a coma.
"...I won't kill you. As long as you agree to my conditions, the rewards I just mentioned will all be yours."
"Of course you can refuse, but I hope you understand the current situation."
"Holy Egypt and the Hebrew Empire are enemies, and we are now at war."
"Besides, I will not hand these two bandits over to you. I will take them and the food they looted away, and tie you up again, and restore you to your previous state."
"It's up to you to decide."
"Do you see me as an enemy or as a friend who can help you?"
As soon as Lin Ke finished speaking, Elisha's father swallowed.
"You...are the King of Holy Egypt."
"Are you willing to call us... the pariahs of the empire, your friends?"
"It even gives us, the untouchables, the right to choose!"
"This, this is simply a gift from the king!"
Elisha's father said this, his voice trembling a little.
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh is the...king of Holy Egypt?"
"Is he the same king as the Supreme Ruler?"
Elisha listened to his father's words and just blinked at Link.
But Nan Tong, who was next to Lin Ke, immediately raised his voice.
“Bold!”
"How dare you compare the holy, great, and loving Pharaoh of our holy Egypt with that despicable king who committed so many evil things?"
"The fact that you are alive and can breathe the same air as His Majesty the Saint Pharaoh is already a great gift from His Majesty the Saint Pharaoh to you!"
"Even the gods must bow to the great Holy Pharaoh. How dare you, a mere untouchable, disrespect this great Holy Pharaoh!"
