C1941 In front of the Pantheon



C1941 In front of the Pantheon

"Shall we go on this raft?"    

    

Shen Yinbing was slightly shocked.    

    

The water below was so turbulent that even a normal ship would probably be washed away. How could a simple raft cross over?    

    

Besides, there was only one person on the raft.    

    

"Yes, my lady, please be at ease. Nothing will happen to the raft, we came here on it."    

    

The messenger comforted Shen Yinbing.    

    

"My lady, I am truly worried. Don't tell me you all want to use such a despicable method to drown my lady to death?"    

    

Shen Yinbing was an honest child. She would say whatever she felt in her heart and would never lie to others, especially when it concerned her own life.    

    

Hera, who was standing beside her, moved her mouth but didn't say anything.    

    

She suddenly felt a little regretful that she came with Shen Yinbing, because she discovered that Wolfmaster Shen simply did not have the grace that a noble woman should have. He even said such blasphemous words about King Zeus.    

    

The two emissaries were very embarrassed as they hurriedly said, "Please rest assured Madam, nothing will happen to you. I promise."    

    

"I really don't believe in your promises."    

    

Even though Shen Yinbing said this, she knew that the situation was already like this. Even if she was worried that the raft would be overturned by the river, she had no choice but to do as Shen Yinbing said. She could only sigh and follow the messenger down the steps.    

    

"Mrs. Gao, don't worry. King Zeus will not harm you."    

    

Hera followed behind Shen Yinbing and comforted her in a low voice.    

    

Shen Yinbing rolled her eyes and asked bluntly, "You seem to be very familiar with King Zeus?"    

    

Hera was stunned. "Ah?" "Not yet — I, I have never had the pleasure of meeting the great King."    

    

"You haven't even seen him, how do you know he won't harm me? Did you hear? Have you ever heard of the common saying of our dynasty, 'hearing is false, seeing is believing'? What he heard might not be true, only what he saw with his own eyes... It may not be true. In short, my guarantee to any of you, you don't believe that this lousy raft really won't be overturned? "    

    

Just like he entered menopause earlier, Wolfmaster Shen went on and on. Under the lead of the two emissaries, he reluctantly came to the riverside.    

    

The person on the raft was tall and big, he wore coarse clothes, his entire body was in tatters, his trousers were tied up high, his hair was long over his shoulders, and a brown beard covered his entire face. In short, he looked like a big Orangutan, holding onto a thick bamboo stick, giving off a sense of security that felt like a mountain.    

    

However, Wolfmaster Shen felt that it would be best if there were at least four of them to support the raft, and he also needed to have more than eight professional lifeguards accompanying him in order to give her a little comfort.    

    

"Please."    

    

An emissary bent over and asked Shen Yinbing to get on the raft.    

    

Shen Yinbing looked at the surging river and felt a little dizzy. She subconsciously took a step back. "Both of you go up first."    

    

"Madam, don't worry. I will protect you."    

    

Hera now completely treated Shen Yinbing as one of her own. She felt that it would be best for her to speak less of such shameful words, lest others looked down on her.    

    

"Other than him, the protection of anyone else has caused me to be unable to rest at ease."    

    

Shen Yinbing, however, didn't appreciate Hera's kindness at all. She gave Hera a rude blow, but her eyes dimmed down: Yeah, only he can give me enough security, but now he isn't here.    

    

Husband, I missed you.    

    

I really want to.    

    

Shen Yinbing bit her lips lightly. When she raised her head and looked at the even taller statue on the other side of the river, she felt something cold slide down her face.    

    

Seeing that Shen Yinbing's mood was unstable, Hera didn't dare to say anything else.    

    

The two emissaries looked at each other and were about to follow Shen Yinbing's orders when they saw her raise her hand and quickly wipe her face. Then, she grabbed the hem of her skirt and jumped onto the raft.    

    

The raft looked simple and crude, but it was actually very heavy. This explained that after Shen Yinbing had jumped onto it, there hadn't been even the slightest movement. This made her feel a lot more at ease.    

    

Hera followed her onto the raft and stood by her side, ready to face any unexpected situation at any moment.    

    

The emissary did not exaggerate. Only when everyone was on the raft did the mute boatman pick up the heavy bamboo pole and lightly point towards the shore, causing the raft to swing away.    

    

The river was turbulent, as if it could topple everything that floated on it, even the heavy raft, downstream to the unknown.    

    

However, Shen Yinbing's worries were obviously unnecessary because she discovered that the boatman didn't even need to use a bamboo pole to stabilize the raft. The raft was unexpectedly not affected by the river water as it directly headed towards the other side of the river.    

    

It turned out that there was a sturdy iron ring attached to the tops of all the logs on both sides of the raft. The two ropes ran through the river and fixed the raft firmly to the surface.    

    

If you had told me that there were two ropes under the raft, then I wouldn't have shown such fear. These two emissaries are obviously not speaking on purpose, making it clear that they are making things difficult for me.    

    

Shen Yinbing, who was in a bad mood today, would always curse in secret, but once she had made up her mind, she would immediately walk to the edge of the raft. Shen Yinbing, who was in a bad mood today, would always curse in secret, but once she made up her mind, she would immediately walk to the edge of the raft.    

    

The raft reached the opposite side.    

    

There was another small pier across the street, and a flight of stone steps led up.    

    

With the support of Hera, Shen Yinbing followed the two emissaries as they walked down the stone steps. She complained, "How long more do we have to walk to reach that palace? "Don't you have a flying deer cart here? I'd like to see it."    

    

"We'll be there soon."    

    

One of the emissaries smiled apologetically, stepped onto the last stone step, and pointed ahead, "Esteemed madam, that is the Pantheon Hall."    

    

"What are you talking about? I was over there watching the palace from a distance."    

    

Shen Yinbing curled her lips in disbelief. After strenuously walking up the last flight of stairs, she was stunned.    

    

Hera, who had been supporting her up the stairs, also walked up with her mouth half open and an incredulous expression on her face. A few hundred meters away from them was a towering palace.    

    

On the other side of the river, when Shen Yinbing looked towards the palace, she felt that it was very far away. She had only just seen the outline of the palace.    

    

But now that they had just crossed a river, when they looked back at the palace, they seemed to have grown legs towards themselves, and they came running over from far away.    

    

As they drew closer, Shen Yinbing noticed that the palace was slightly different from the ones she had seen in the movies before (films related to Greek mythology). Although it was still tall and majestic, the palace's main entrance had a distinctly monastic style: two large, vermilion doors.    

    

On the door, there were 991 copper nails. On the left and right doors, there was a Tiger Devouring Beast with its fangs turned upside down. It had a gold ring in its mouth, the color of red and yellow.    

    

Shouldn't such a scarlet gate appear in a palace that was characteristic of the Holy Dynasty? How could it appear here?    

    

"What's going on?"    

    

Shen Yinbing closed her eyes and shook her head. Then, she turned around to take a look.    

    

She firmly believed that her eyes were not mistaken. The river was not wide enough for her to see the palace from that direction just now. It gave her the illusion that the palace was at the end of the sky.    

    

But in fact, as soon as she crossed the river, the palace appeared in front of her.    

    

Dang, dang!    

    

A deep and powerful bell sound rang out from the back of the palace.    

    

The two emissaries heaved a sigh of relief. As long as they could bring Shen Yinbing here before the bell rang, they would be considered as having completed their mission. They would immediately lower their heads and retreat to the side.    

    

Shen Yinbing felt a little strange. Just as she was about to ask more, she suddenly heard an elegant music. Countless birds flew out from the top of the palace and landed on the green lawn in front of them.    

    

Shen Yinbing watched as the two bright red doors slowly opened and a group of people walked out.    

    

It was a line of women.    

    

She was tall and slim, and had a charming and beautiful face. She wore a white muslin dress, and her feet were white. She had a beautiful flower ring on her head, and her long golden hair was casually draped over her shoulders.    

    

This passerby was truly like a fairy. His footsteps were light and graceful, and the corners of his mouth had a hint of a smile, but his eyes also roamed about. He also seemed a bit like a fairy.    

    

There were twenty of them. They walked out of the hall with light steps, carrying baskets of flowers in their hands. They were singing beautiful songs, sprinkling colorful petals as they walked, and there were even countless butterflies dancing along the petals.    

    

Even though Lily and Hera were both girls, they were still shocked by the sudden appearance of these girls because they were all peerless beauties. Normally, it would be great if they could just see one, but now there were so many of them.    

    

When the girls who were singing and sprinkling petals came closer, Shen Yinbing suddenly realized that they were all wearing thin, white muslin. Inside, they were not wearing anything at all, but their proud and attractive inner beauty could be clearly seen, and because of this muslin, they had improved their beauty a few times.    

    

Shen Yinbing could swear that if she was a man, she would have a nosebleed after seeing such a group of girls. She subconsciously turned around to check on the two male emissaries, only to find that they had already disappeared.    

    

The girls arrived in front of Shen Yinbing and her companion with flowers scattered in the air. They split up and moved to the sides, showing them a carpet made of flower petals.    

    

However, no one invited Shen Yinbing and her sister onto the carpet.    

    

"What do you mean, not inviting me into the palace after laying the carpet?"    

    

Just as Shen Yinbing was feeling puzzled, she saw three more people walk out.    

    

The leader was a charming young woman who wore exactly the same clothes as the other girls. However, her figure was even more voluptuous and alluring. The two girls behind her had two silver plates in their hands with white muslin gowns on them.    

    

"Esteemed customer, welcome to Pantheon Hall."    

    

The young woman walked up to Shen Yinbing with a smile, placed her right hand on her chest, and bowed slightly.    

    

Shen Yinbing imitated his gesture, bowing as she replied, "You're welcome."    

    

"Please, my lady, come with me."    

    

The young woman didn't wait for Shen Yinbing to say anything. She raised her hand and gestured for them to go ahead. "I still need you to go and bathe and change your clothes."    

    

Shen Yinbing had already bathed twice today, once in her hot spring and once in her own residence. However, her clothes had been torn in several places and were now stained with their blood. They had indeed turned into a dirty one and she had to bathe and change her clothes again.    

    

Shen Yinbing nodded and didn't say anything. She followed Hera and the young woman onto the flower petals that covered the carpet, walking towards the palace.    

    

At this moment, the group of girls were dancing gracefully. Their singing sounds were crisp, yet it did not lose its gentleness and gentleness.    

    

Shen Yinbing didn't understand what they were singing, but she could guess that it was nothing more than: Welcome, guest from afar.
