antique on the run

Hermes did come to betray Zeus.

"When you saw me in front of the temple that night, I had just finished meeting Father God. Father God gave me a mission, hoping that I could go to the land of exile and rescue Io who was guarded by a hundred-eyed giant."

He laughed at himself, "Your precautions are very good, and Argos is also very loyal to guard Io according to your request. It took me a lot of effort to rescue Io. I am sorry, for this I had to kill Argos, and I apologize to you."

Hermes stood up from his seat, knelt down on one knee and bowed his head to Qi Xiao.

In Greek mythology, Argos, the one-hundred-eyed giant, died at the hands of Hermes. After his death, Hera plucked out his one hundred eyes and put them on the peacock's tail. Qi Xiao knew this a long time ago. , so I wasn't surprised or outraged by it.

"You seem to be very calm." Hermes sat back on the seat again, "Can I understand that you don't blame me or hate me because of Argos' death?"

"If this is what His Majesty asked..." Qi Xiao pondered, "If His Majesty asked you to do this, then I don't think I have any reason to blame you."

Zeus should be blamed and blamed.

Although he didn't understand why Hermes suddenly came here to betray Zeus to show his favor, and he was worried about his own blame, but Qi Xiao thought very unkindly, since the instigator was Zeus, then all the culprits should be blamed on Zeus up.As a god king, he must bear the responsibility corresponding to this title.

A smile crept back on Hermes' face, "Thank you for your magnanimity, my lord, your understanding means a lot to me."

After the meeting under the steps of the Temple of the Night, the shadow of this Highness has been lingering in his heart.The simple and plain white nightgown and the long crimson hair without accessories, obviously not one-ten-thousandth of the luxury in the past, but it still makes people's heart beat.

The most important thing is that there is no contempt in her eyes when she looks at herself...

That's why when Hermes performed the task entrusted to him by Zeus, and killed the hundred-eyed giant to rescue Io, he felt shaken and felt guilty. After sending Io to Zeus, he immediately came to Hera's Temple of Heaven. He told the father God's plan and even confessed the death of the hundred-eyed giant.

He was just innocent and didn't want to be hated by His Highness.

He didn't expect Hera to like him so much, at least not to be annoyed or disgusted by her, that was enough.

"I see." Qi Xiao said slowly after a long silence: "I am very sad for Argos' death, but I will not blame you. I will seek other ways to extend his life."

For example, dig out his eyes and inlay them on the peacock's tail.

...just a little bloody.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Hermes once again solemnly thanked Qi Xiao. It was something he never expected to be forgiven by Hera so easily.

This Highness has indeed become different, he thought in his heart, becoming so gentle and beautiful that people can't help but want to get close to her, dedicating his heart to her like moths flying to a flame.

"When I left the temple, Father God was trying to undo the curse you planted on Io. But your curse Father God probably cannot be undone, so I think Father God will come to you in a few days .”

He pursed his lips, and said with some reluctance, "Your Highness, if you want to reconcile with Father God, this is probably a good opportunity."

After Hermes finished speaking, he got up to leave, Qi Xiao politely got up and sent him to the door.

There was a fluorescent blue butterfly flying around at the door, and as soon as it sensed Hermes' appearance, it immediately flew over joyfully and landed on his shoulder, rubbing against his shoulder affectionately.

blue butterfly!

Qi Xiao's pupils shrank suddenly, and asked calmly, "Is this your butterfly?"

"Ah? No." Hermes shook his head. He tapped the blue butterfly's wings with his fingertips, and the blue butterfly turned into countless light spots and dissipated in the air. Butterfly."

Aphrodite.

Qi Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, silently recited the name.So after going around for a long time, neither he nor Seve expected that the god who gave important guidance to Nautilus was actually Aphrodite!

But for what?

"This is Afu who is calling me, Your Highness." Hermes smiled apologetically. If you look carefully, you can find that his smile is a bit bitter and ashamed.

The lover relationship between him and Aphrodite is known to all the gods, and he does not deliberately hide anyone on weekdays. It is common for Aphrodite to summon him, and it stands to reason that there is nothing to feel embarrassed about.

However, when the person standing in front of him was Hera, Hermes was inexplicably annoyed and resentful.

If possible, he didn't want his lover relationship with Aphrodite to be revealed in front of Hera.

However, Qi Xiao didn’t feel any trouble in his heart. According to the records of Greek mythology, although Aphrodite had a husband, she and her husband seemed to be at odds, and secretly had as many lovers as Zeus, and Hermes was one of them.

Aphrodite gave birth to children for every lover. Because Ares, the god of war, had the most children, people believed that Ares was the man Aphrodite really admired, and Hermes was not originally a man. Not loved by Aphrodite, he got the chance to spend a night with the god of love and beauty through calculation and conspiracy...

Qi Xiao's eyes paused for a moment on Hermes' shoulders that had been stopped by the blue butterfly. He recalled the intimate behavior of the blue butterfly to Hermes just now, and thought deeply, maybe history has gone wrong again. , Aphrodite doesn't seem to hate Hermes very much.

"Since the God of Love and Beauty is calling you, go quickly." Qi Xiao said goodbye to Hermes in front of the temple gate.

Hermes opened his mouth hesitantly, but finally turned into a low sigh. He saluted and said, "Yes, Your Highness, Hermes will take his leave."

Qi Xiao kept watching Hermes disappear from sight, turned his head slightly, and said coldly to a huge marble pillar in front of the temple door: "How long are you going to hide there?"

There was a chuckle in the air, a faint silver light appeared beside the stone pillar, the silver light faded, and a figure appeared, and Sai Wei appeared in front of Qi Xiao with a smile.

"How did you find me?" He quickly stepped forward, took his lover's hand and squeezed it, "I thought I was hiding well."

Qi Xiao glanced at him sideways, but said nothing.

In fact, when Hermes came in, he was aware of the existence of Sewe. As for the reason...

Qi Xiao was a little ashamed, what should he say, because after staying with Sai Wei for a long time, can he smell Sai Wei's body?

I really don't understand, I have already turned back into a human, why is my sense of smell as sensitive as a cat's...

"After Hermes left the temple, I hid myself and wanted to find you, but who knew that this guy was on the same path as me, and also came to find you." Saiwei re-cast an invisibility technique on himself, ensuring that only Qi Xiao can do it. Seeing him, he pulled Qi Xiao and turned back to the Temple of Heaven.

"I've been following him all the time, and I'll stand by your side when you guys are drinking tea." He turned his head and kissed Qi Xiao's ear lightly, and said with a smile after his face was patted away by Qi Xiao: " Honey, you are so outstanding, and there are so many people who covet you, I wish I could stay by your side all the time."

Qi Xiao hesitated: "Covet?"

"Yeah, didn't you see it?" Sai Wei looked surprised, "Hermes' thoughts on you are too obvious! I can see it at a glance, Qi Xiao."

He rubbed his chin, narrowed his eyes and said thoughtfully: "It's not something a son should do to compete with God the Father for his love. I think I need to find a chance to hit him."

Is this starting to pretend to be someone else's father?The cheap son picked it up really well.Qi Xiao glanced at Saiwei, and said, "I don't care what Hermes thinks, have you seen that blue butterfly?"

"Well, I see." Seve nodded, "I really didn't expect that it would be sent by Aphrodite."

Deliberately releasing the blue butterfly to guide Nautilus through the forest of death to find the holy lake, so as to meet Hera bathing in the holy lake, it is hard to say that Aphrodite has no purpose.

"She probably also wants to cause Hera to cheat." Qi Xiao recalled what the God of Love and Beauty said to himself when he came to the Queen's Temple that day, and kept hoping that Hera would respond to Nautilus' feelings, " I just don’t know what benefits Hera’s derailment can bring her.”

Qi Xiao rubbed his brows wearily, the world of Greek mythology is really chaotic, if he can, he really doesn't want to participate in the hunt for antiques related to Greek mythology in the future.

"Are you tired?" Saiwei put his arms around Qi Xiao's shoulders, saw his tired face, and said worriedly: "You don't seem to be looking well."

"Well, I haven't slept in the past few days, and I'm not used to it." Qi Xiao said lightly.

In order to have an affair with Nautilus, he can’t sleep at night, and there are a lot of people to deal with during the day. He doesn’t live alone in the temple like Seve. Although he is a little bored facing a bunch of portraits of Zeus, at least he doesn’t have to worry about it. The brain deliberately plays who.Although the body of the gods will not feel tired, Qi Xiao's spirit is still somewhat weak.

"Exactly, I'm a little sleepy too." After confirming that Qi Xiao was just sleepy, Sewei was relieved, and said with a smile, "Then let's have a good sleep these two nights."

In this way, in the third and fourth nights of the affair, the poor Prince Nautysius was stunned and rudely thrown on the ground to sit and dream of having a tryst with his lover, while Sewei and Qi Xiao occupied his bed , Sleep soundly until dawn.

It's very strange, there is no joy or lingering, but the antiques who are spectators in the void did not judge them to fail in their pursuit.

Probably embracing and sleeping together...it can be considered a kind of cheating!
