Octavian 1 Chapter word count: 3073 Update time: 07-10-03 01:35 The iron fence rose slowly, and this time it was a majestic leopard that appeared in front of me. Seeing the fierce-eyed leopard, the shocked spectators became excited again, and shouted again. I raised my eyebrows indifferently, anything is fine, as long as it is not human. The leopard stared at me, I don't know why, I think its eyes are a bit strange.Before I could think about it, it roared and rushed towards me. I hastened to repeat the old trick, intending to subdue it with my grasping method, but it seemed that it didn't work at all.I was wondering, a gust of wind rushed towards me, I hid on the ground, my arm was already taken by its claws, leaving a shallow bloodstain, in a hurry, I tore off my belt, With a light jump, I jumped onto its back, quickly put it around its neck, and grabbed its throat with all my strength. It flicked desperately, and threw me off with an unimaginable force. .

It hurts... I gasped in pain, its strength was abnormally large, completely beyond what an ordinary leopard should have. The leopard rushed and bit like crazy, and even the two lions were killed by it alive. This time, even the audience screamed... f5 After killing the lion, it suddenly looked in Hafei's direction. My heart tightened, and I hurriedly stood in front of her. It stood there, staring at me coldly. Seeing its eyes, there was no reason It really made me feel a chill, this leopard is really weird... In normal times, even if you don’t catch Dafa, it’s not a problem to take care of a few leopards. It’s never been so difficult as it is today...

I took a deep breath, and suddenly saw something scattered on the ground. I was overjoyed, and quickly picked it up. I jumped onto its back again, clamped its belly tightly, and took the thing I picked up just now. A broken arrow pierced fiercely into its left eye... Hearing a scream from it, it flew up, and I was thrown to the ground by it again. This time, it rushed up immediately, and was about to bite my throat... I didn't care so much, I reached out and grabbed it. up its neck... The familiar feeling of swelling and pain in the chest hit instantly, as if something was about to burst out, it was so uncomfortable...

"Crack!" A dagger landed steadily in front of me. I didn't have time to think about it, and immediately grabbed the dagger. At this moment, I seemed to have found the long-lost The feeling of something, cordial...bloodthirsty... "Pounce..." My sword had already pierced into the leopard's body. It roared angrily, as if it couldn't feel the pain at all. It made a deep hole, and if it was caught by its claws, it would be rotten... My actions seemed to be controlled by something, I drew out my sword without thinking, and with a sharp blow... cut its throat...

It wasn't until the warm blood splashed all over my body that I came back to my senses... I looked at myself covered in blood, but my mind was at a loss.What happened just now... That feeling of being controlled by someone is so weird... There was silence in Ruoda's arena, and after a long time, someone shouted, "Let her be free!" The sound was like a domino effect, and the audience immediately echoed one after another "Set her free!" "Set her free!" The same voice mixed with applause gathered in the arena into a thunderous bang... A senator stood up from his seat, and after getting a signal from Octavian, he said loudly, "Citizens of Rome, in view of the bravery of this prisoner, our great Octavian consul has decided to grant her- -----free!"

There was a burst of cheers in the arena. The elder paused, and then said again, "Prisoner who has been freed, you have even greater glory, and your bravery is also appreciated by Octavian, so he will personally meet you here." After hearing his words, I suddenly felt relieved, student Octavian, I want to say that it is not easy to meet you... When looking up at the auditorium.In a trance, I seemed to see that purple and silver flashing again---- Because I have seen the statue of Octavian in art books, I am no stranger to his appearance, just like the one depicted in history books, he has light golden hair and looks as beautiful as a woman, but after years of tempering The magnanimity and the strength of the king can't be molded by any master of art.

Gaius? Octavius? Turinus ------ future Augustus the Great. His future empire stretched from the Danube in the north to Africa in the south, from the Pyrenees in the west to Mesopotamia and Asia Minor in the east, forming the largest empire in ancient history, and even the Mediterranean Sea became the inner lake of the Roman Empire. So the moment I saw him, I was still a little excited... After all, I saw a living person... "I appreciate your bravery. From now on, you are a free man." His voice was very kind. I looked at him calmly, "Please grant me another request, I want to pass on this freedom to my friends." I pointed to Hafei who was still present.of 3

"Oh?" He looked at me slightly surprised, "I can promise you, but you will lose your freedom, and maybe you will become a prisoner again." "I know," I smiled, "so hopefully there will be more lions next time." A smile appeared on his face, he turned his head, and said to a young man beside him, "Agripa, this girl is interesting." Agrippa?This name is so familiar... Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa, a famous Roman statesman and general.Most of Octavian's military victories are due to his command. The most famous battle he commanded was the Actium naval battle against the combined forces of Antony and the Queen.

In this way, all the target people in Rome are here... I couldn't help but looked up at him, and when I saw his face clearly, I immediately lowered my head in shock. Mamma Mia...Wow, what a coincidence... Isn't this the unlucky man whose clothes were stolen by me in the bathhouse? It's over, this time he must take the opportunity to take revenge... However, looking at his expression, it seems that he doesn't remember me at all... By the way, by the way, my face is covered in blood now, which is very different from last time, how could he recognize me? "Why don't you just give this girl to me, my family just needs a slave." Agrippa said calmly.

Slave... I seem to hear the crows flying overhead again... No, no, if it falls into his hands, he will definitely recognize me. It will be a disaster, and he will take the opportunity to retaliate. I can't use magic, and it will be very embarrassing... "Well, I have heard the reputation of Octavian's consul for a long time in a foreign country, so if I can serve you here, then I will be very grateful." I quickly started talking nonsense.Whether it's personal reasons or tasks, it would be better to stay with Octavian, after all, he is the big boss. Octavian laughed, "But Agrippa seldom makes a request to me, and I will not refuse. He is famously kind to slaves and servants. Besides, he was the one who made the move just now..."

I was taken aback for a moment, only to realize that the sword in my hand was actually his. So, could it be that the one who threw down the sword just now was -------- No way, he would be so kind? "She belongs to you, my loyal friend." Octavian smiled, got up and left. I sighed in my heart, lowered my head, moved slowly, and passed the sword over, but he grabbed my wrist, and a low voice lingered in my ears, "Why, stole it?" Is that all I want for my clothes?" Bang ----- I heard the sound of my head being smashed again, him, how did he recognize me? Now something is wrong... "I didn't expect you to appear here..." There was a faint smile on his lips, "Don't worry, I'm very kind to my servants." Hearing the words "harmony" come out of his mouth, a chill came out of my back for no reason. In this situation, it is impossible to get close to Octavian, so the next best thing is to get close to Agrippa. After all, he is also one of the important targets in that mission. As long as you keep following him, you will know Why the Queen of Egypt hated him. "From now on, everything you do must be subject to me," he let go of my wrist and said proudly, "Do you understand? A slave from Seris?" what to do?I really want to kick someone... However, looking at his expression, it seems that he doesn't remember me at all...

A slave from Seris?" what to do?I really want to kick someone... Agrippa's villa is located not far from the People's Square. This is a standard ancient Roman residence with a combination of an inner courtyard and a peristyle courtyard.White marble from Greece constitutes an elegant courtyard in the shape of a column. In the center of the courtyard, there is also a small bronze sculpture fountain. Crystal water droplets splash on the surrounding roses, shining charmingly in the sun. There is a romantic atmosphere in the whole courtyard. After finally washing my whole body and putting on a tunic, I felt as if I had recovered. The scenes in the Colosseum just now played back in my mind from time to time. Today is really a day full of excitement... When I walked into the courtyard, I happened to see Agrippa half-lying sideways beside a long table. The setting sun in the sky lingered, casting a faint golden light on his body, creating a kind of clear and elegant hue. My eyes suddenly lit up, and I fixed my eyes on the food placed on the long table in front of him. The most eye-catching is a platter composed of small shrimp, oysters and crabs. The whole dish is supplemented with lettuce salad, cucumber, good olive oil and celery mixed with mature vinegar. The main course is a fat pheasant with sauce And a lamb stewed with thyme and onion as seasoning, the honey cake baked so yellow is placed in a tempting transparent glass container with grapes, apples, pears and other fruits in full bloom. The Greek female slave is holding an amphora and pouring mellow wine for him... I heard myself swallowing... After the fierce battle just now, I was already so hungry that my chest was on my back. I guess my eyes are glowing green now... I want to swallow everything in one gulp. He motioned for me to sit down beside him, but he ignored me. He just flirted with the woman beside him and drank wine. This man obviously wants to show me off, so that I can see it but not eat it. If I show a hungry look now, I must be in his arms.Just don't make him proud... By the way, by the way, quickly think about the tomato scrambled eggs made by my mother, I guarantee that I will lose my appetite!This trick really had a miraculous effect. When I thought of these four words, my stomach immediately churned habitually. "Slave of Serris, do you know who you have offended?" He seemed to have noticed me, and turned his head to look at me. "Tomato scrambled eggs!" I blurted out without thinking, and only realized what I said when I saw the black lines on his face, uh----I can't blame me, my mind is full of these four word ah. "By the way, are you hungry too? Come here, bring this to her." He remembered as if waking up from a dream, and signaled a female slave to bring a plate of delicious honey cakes to me. I'm a bit puzzled, could it be that his conscience discovered it? "This is my favorite dessert, smell it and see if it smells good?" Seeing him talking to me with a pleasant face, I was a little startled. Is this a hidden knife in a smile? Although I couldn't guess his intention for a while, the temptation of the food still made me nod, "It's very fragrant." The corner of his mouth raised, "Come here, take this dessert away." I was taken aback, and blurted out, "I haven't eaten yet..." There was a flat smile on his face, "My slave, can't the scent just now satisfy you? You shouldn't feel hungry anymore, right? You're really a greedy guy..." What, what?this is okay too? ? ? I gouged him out. The historical records also said that because Agrippa was born as a commoner, he still retained a pure and simple life in the upper class of Rome, which was full of carnal desire and corruption. Who wrote it, I want my dad to bite him! Agrippa looked at my face covered with black lines with satisfaction, and drank several glasses of wine happily. "General, you have drunk a lot today." The maid beside him said softly. "It's okay, I'm in a good mood today." He smiled, took another drink, turned to me and asked, "I'm full, so it's time to answer my question. Why are those two lions obedient?" At that moment, a deep look flashed across his slightly unruly face. I looked at him and was about to speak when I suddenly thought of something, so I just moved my lips. "What did you say?" he asked suspiciously. I just stood up and kept moving my lips, but I didn't make a sound at all, and I added expressions and movements from time to time, as if performing a pantomime. He looked at the female slave beside him in confusion, and asked, "Did you hear what she was saying?" The female slave was also confused, "General, I can't hear anything, but looking at her, she seems to be talking about something." "Louder." He got a little impatient. I continue to be what I am. "I tell you to speak louder, do you hear me!" He put down the wine glass in his hand heavily. Seeing that he was angry as expected, I also smiled with satisfaction, and said, "General, I've been talking all the time, look how hard I speak." "I didn't hear anything!" He said angrily. "Hey, that's weird," I looked at him with a smile, "Since that scent can make me full, then my voice should also make you understand, General." He froze for a moment, then burst out laughing. He didn't laugh a few times. Suddenly, his face changed slightly, his face turned blue, and he clutched his abdomen tightly, with a pained look on his face... "General, general, what's wrong with you!" The female slave beside him yelled in panic, and suddenly, more than ten guards poured into the courtyard. "Go get a doctor." Agrippa said in a painful voice. I looked at him gloatingly, because most of the jugs in ancient Rome were made of metal lead, which was a rare metal at that time, and because of the limitation of technology at that time, people did not understand the toxicity of lead.Therefore, a large amount of lead in the jug enters the body with the wine and stagnates in the body, causing chronic lead poisoning.Looking at his symptoms, I guess it is probably acute lead poisoning. Lead poisoning is dangerous, but Agrippa was not at this time of the year, so I wasn't worried at all.Who told him to drink a dozen more glasses because he made fun of me... I drank more than ten cups, I was stunned, could it be the ten cups that I drank too much?Let the accumulated toxins change from quantitative to qualitative... Han, if this is the case, isn't he in danger? ? Alas, forget it, forget it, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case.It will take some time until the doctor arrives.Let me give him first aid first. I took a few steps forward and said loudly, "Bring over warm water and milk immediately, the more the better!" Everyone was stunned, and I stared, "If you want to save your master, hurry up and get it!" Intimidated by my aura, everyone ran out in a panic and quickly fetched what I needed. "What... are you doing..." Agrippa's consciousness was a little blurred, but he was still resisting me unconsciously. "If you want to feel more comfortable, use my emetic method obediently." As I spoke, I lifted his head and poured warm water into his mouth. The warm water stimulated his throat and immediately produced an emetic effect. , He immediately lay down on the side and vomited. After vomiting for a while, he gradually lost consciousness. "Give him the milk, quick!" I ordered loudly.Drinking milk can prevent lead from combining with human protein, and directly combine with milk protein to relieve poisoning symptoms. "No, the master keeps his mouth shut, so he can't pour it in." The female slave said anxiously, I squeezed his chin hard, forced his lips to open, and picked up a piece of lambskin beside me, rolled it into a funnel shape, inserted it into his mouth, and ordered, "Pour!" The female slave shook her hands in fright, and the whole jug of milk went down... Uh------------ "Cough, cough, cough," poor Agrippa coughed several times in a coma, but he finally drank all the milk, and his complexion seemed to improve. After a while, the doctor arrived in time. Seeing that he was fine, I also took advantage of the chaos and put a few honey cakes in my stomach, and slipped back to my slave room with a plate of snacks. Ugh-------- A chaotic and exciting day is finally over...
