Although she forcibly stopped her adoptive father from laughing at her and tried her best to help her stabilize the situation, her adoptive mother could not stand Guo Ponu's performance.
"Stop making fun of your sister." She said helplessly to Guo Kang, then turned to Guo Ponu and said, "Okay, take out the gift for your brother."
Guo Kang was a little surprised, so his adoptive mother explained: "Your sister and I visited the Egyptians this time. She asked for an amulet for you and brought it as a gift."
"Okay, take it out." She urged Guo Ponu: "It's the same with you kid. You prepared a gift for someone, but you didn't take it out yourself. Instead, you asked me to rush you. Is this my gift or your gift? ah?"
Guo Ponu's face turned red and he muttered something, but Guo Kang didn't hear it clearly. But she immediately stood up, picked up the bag next to her, and took out a package from it.
She walked up to Guo Kang, hesitated for a moment, and opened the package. Inside is a stone with a simple eye carved on it.
"This, this is an amulet." Guo Ponu stuttered: "It is said that this symbol symbolizes the eyes of Horus, which represents protection and insight into everything. In ancient times, the Egyptians believed that it could ward off evil spirits. Although religion has now changed It has changed, but the Tomb Sect still has this tradition.”
"People say this is a good thing." She seemed unable to say much, so she simply handed it to Guo Kang: "Here, here you go. Wear it from now on."
"Uh...thank you." Guo Kang was a little overwhelmed for a moment, so he had to thank him first.
But he was a little hesitant as to whether this thing was suitable.
In traditional impressions, Egypt is often closely related to various "mysterious events". Of course, with the development of science and archeology, these mysteries have gradually dissipated.
Such as the famous pyramid. In terms of project volume and construction difficulty, there were actually buildings of the same level as them in Serris during the same period. But the buildings in Serris are all dams and city walls. They have no sense of mystery and the craftsmanship is very consistent. Everyone can tell how they were built at a glance.
As a result, due to the gap in understanding, when people mention Egyptian ruins, they are "mysterious" and "ancient", and they even think of prehistoric civilizations and aliens. When it comes to Seris of the same generation, they are all "the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people."
And it’s not just Egypt either. If the ancient explosion site appeared in India, it would be considered a myth and a prehistoric nuclear war. But what happened in Seris was just a safety accident involving working people...
Therefore, most of the time, Guo Kang does not believe this.
But then again, this world is indeed mysterious. And as a time traveler, he himself didn't understand what the principle was. So although he usually didn't care, he felt that he should be careful if he really used these things as charms.
"Are you sure this is suitable?" He murmured and said, "Besides, this is a pagan witchcraft item, right? I have to go to church every day, so it would be great to bring it with me."
"What's the point?" Guo Ponu seemed to have never thought about this problem at all, and said, "Okay, I admit that it was my fault just now, and I shouldn't have been angry. This is considered an apology, and I hope it can protect our relationship. Let’s make peace.”
"Can Horus still bless brother and sister to be harmonious?" Guo Kang himself didn't quite understand.
"Just take it." Guo Ponu didn't know how to explain.
"No. I won't wear it if it's not Brother Tian!" Guo Kang prevaricated.
"Kang'er, stop making trouble." Seeing this, the adoptive father smiled and said, "Just take what your sister gave you."
Guo Kang had no choice but to nod, thank Guo Ponu and take it away.
