antique on the run

Once more night fell upon Olympus and the mortal lands.

The sun converges its light, and the stars decorate the night sky, bright and bright.

Under the cover of the night, a pair of golden wings cut across the sky, and quickly flew in the direction of Thebes Palace.

Qi Xiao originally came with Saiwei, but before departure, Saiwei's divine sense left in the temple was suddenly touched. Ares, the god of war, came to pay homage to his father, saying that he had something to report.As a last resort, Saiwei had to let Qi Xiao go to the palace of Thebes alone to stun Nautilus, and he went to the temple to meet Ares before rushing over.

Like the previous four nights, the palace of Thebes was brightly lit.The prince's bedroom was lit with soft candle lamps, making it look warm.

Qi Xiao silently landed on the window rail, and Nautilus didn't know what he was thinking tonight, so he closed the window uncharacteristically.Qi Xiao opened the window and sneaked into the dormitory. After folding his wings, he searched for the trace of Nautilus.

However, it was strange that there was no one in the bedroom.

There is a faint fragrance in the hall, which seems to be some kind of incense, which drills into the nose and pores of people as if they have eyes. After smelling it for a long time, there is a slight sense of dizziness.

Qi Xiao frowned, opened the window to the maximum, and let the cool night wind blow in, blowing away the rich aroma, and felt more comfortable.

There was no sound in the bedroom, except for Qi Xiao's footsteps.He walked slowly inside, passed the empty big bed, passed the open wardrobe, and finally stopped in front of Nautilus' drawing table.

Two days ago, the table and the surrounding ground were covered with drawing papers, on which were drawn various "Hera", standing, sitting, lying, clothed and naked … Seville also joked that Nautysius should have admired Zeus’s face so much that he could paint His Majesty’s sharp-edged and tough facial features into a great beauty.

But now, those paintings are all gone, the drawing table is clean, only a piece of yellowed drawing paper is placed in the center.

The corners of the drawing paper are frizzy, and the two intersecting creases in the center are very obvious, as if they are often unfolded and folded.

The drawing paper is on the back side up, so you can't see what is painted on the front side.Qi Xiao reached out to pick up the drawing paper, slowly unfolded it, and a beautiful colorful scroll was displayed in front of him.

Unlike so many black and white paintings before, this one is colored.The lush trees are tall and straight, the blue lake is sparkling, and the blue sky is reflected in the lake, as if the whole sky is contained in it.

In the middle of the lake stood a beautiful woman, tall and straight, as luxuriant as a green pine, wearing a simple and large white robe, soaked in the lake water, water droplets dripped down the cuffs and fingertips, and smashed one after another on the lake surface. water vortex.

The beauty lowered her head slightly, and gently lifted the hem of her clothes with one hand, as if she wanted to come from the lake. Her ankle-length crimson curly hair was scattered on the lake, like a blooming rose, or like a hot The burning flame is the brightest color in the whole picture.

It was obviously a beautiful and gentle painting, but when Qi Xiao's gaze fixed on the face of the person in the painting, he felt startled.

It was a very familiar face——

his own face.

The person standing in the middle of the lake...is Qi Xiao.

But it is obvious that Nautius's memory of Hera should be the one that Sewe forged!That's the same look he drew before!

"I finally see you again."

A strange voice suddenly came from behind Qi Xiao.

He turned around sharply, and the young and handsome prince stood not far behind him, with a gentle smile on his mouth that could touch even the god of love.

"I've known for a long time that that woman is not you." Nautilus pointed to his eyes, "Although I don't have the ability of photographic memory, I will never forget your appearance."

Nostalgia appeared in Nautilus' eyes. When he saw Qi Xiao for the first time by the holy lake that day, his figure and appearance had been deeply imprinted in his heart. A woman was used as a substitute, but Nautilus knew very well that they were not the same person after all.

One is like the perennial white snow on the top of a snow-capped mountain, which is daunting and untouchable, and the other... It doesn't matter if you don't mention it.

A fake is a fake after all, and the young prince knew exactly who touched his heart.

"You remember, what I look like." Qi Xiao squeezed out these words almost word for word.

"Yes." Nautilus answered without hesitation, he walked towards Qi Xiao step by step, Qi Xiao retreated subconsciously, but reached the edge of the painting table.

"You use such a woman to fool me, why? Even if you don't want to reciprocate my love, you shouldn't spoil it like this."

Nautilus's face was pale and haggard, and there were two deep bruises under his eyes. At this moment, he looked at Qi Xiao sadly, with endless admiration and silent accusation in his eyes.

"I don't want to have sex with her, I don't want to at all." Nautilus covered his head in pain, "But I don't know why, I can't control myself, it's like there is an invisible hand pushing behind me I am the same, do you understand this feeling? I obviously wanted to stay away from her, I wanted to push her away, but in the end I still pulled her under me..."

Qi Xiao's eyes flickered, Nautilus didn't understand why he had an uncontrollable relationship with the fake Hera, but he did.Because those were all the memories that were forcibly forced into Nautilus. He and Sai Wei made up the memories that were directly stuffed into his mind. How could he resist?

Qi Xiao lowered his eyelids, and his thin eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, covering his complicated eyes.He originally thought that Nautilus would not remember his figure and appearance, so he could use the fake Hera to fool him, but he didn't expect Nautilus to remember everything and know everything.

This is hard to do.

Nautilus was still talking, his voice full of longing and sadness because of having a relationship with the fake Hera.

"Why, why did you use that woman to fool me?" He pushed Qi Xiao to the corner of the table, "I drew many pictures, many pictures, all kinds of her, clothed, naked, but whether it is Whatever it is, it doesn't bother me at all."

He pointed to the yellowed drawing paper in Qi Xiao's hand, "I drew you, only this one, you only left me such a short and hasty glimpse, but I, I..." He covered his heart, "I can't forget what you looked like, you made my heart beat and fascinated me, but you... have never appeared since then."

He suddenly raised his head, looked straight into Qi Xiao's eyes, and murmured: "Your eyes are like the brilliance of the morning sun, like the rays of the rising sun, like the shadow of the sunset reflected on the lake. You finally personally Come to see me, Hera, my...His Royal Highness the Queen of Heaven."

In history, Hera clearly told Nautilus her identity, so Seve also faithfully reflected this when constructing memory for Notitisius, so Nautilus knew exactly who Qi Xiao was.

He knew how noble Hera's status was, but he was not afraid.He is not afraid of the glory of the Queen of Heaven, nor the wrath of the God King, he only wants to win the pity of the person he admires.

He approached slowly, only an arm's length away from Qi Xiao, he spread his arms as if wanting to hug this beauty, but Qi Xiao dodged away.

There was a look of disappointment in Nautilus' eyes: the person he really loved really didn't want to reciprocate his feelings.

Qi Xiao frowned tightly, it was already the last night, but such a big problem happened.Nautilus lured him out, expressed his heart to him, and looked forward to his response...

Qi Xiao's head was throbbing with pain, and he still had a faint feeling of dizziness.Before he knew it, the smell of the incense in the room seemed to become stronger, as if it could penetrate through the pores of a person, blend into the blood and flow throughout the body.

And... It's hot, and my throat is very dry. I want to drink water, drink ice water.

Qi Xiao subconsciously pulled down the collar, but after realizing what he had done, he quickly stopped and pressed the collar back again.

Something was wrong, although it was summer, it shouldn't be this hot. The temperature in the past few days was not lower than today, but he didn't feel overheated like this.

The power seemed to be slowly draining from his body, Qi Xiao raised his hand, trying to gather divine power at his fingertips, but the pale golden light disappeared instantly as soon as it covered his fingers.

The divine power belonging to the queen Hera was sealed.

If Qi Xiao didn't know what Nautilus had done to him at this time, then he was too slow.He cast his eyes on Nautilus like a torch, and his beautiful golden pupils are now calm and majestic, filled with the majesty of a queen.

Nautilus smiled, "Did you find out?"

He was no longer in a hurry to get close to Qi Xiao, but stood where he was, shook his head innocently and said: "I have no choice, Hera, I have no choice, I desperately want to see you again, I want to get your love, I didn't know what to do, so I had to do this."

He looked at a small incense burner in the corner of the closet, "It contains medicine that can temporarily seal the power of the gods, and it was bought in the underworld trading market."

The underworld trading market is set up at the junction of the mortal world and the underworld. There is a land covered by darkness and haze all year round. There is no one to guard it, and it is very chaotic. The low-level residents of the underworld will set up stalls there to do business with humans, so many This is how items from the underworld are circulated to the mortal world.

The drug used by Nautilus is one of the forbidden drugs in the underworld. For some reason, it was put on the market and circulated to the human world.

"Don't worry, the effect of the medicine will wear off after a while." He comforted Qi Xiao and said, "I won't let you get into trouble, that kind of medicine will only work in a short period of time."

He spoke sincerely, but Qi Xiao looked at him coldly, gritted his teeth, and said, "But the medicine you put in probably has more than one kind."

If it was just a medicine that could seal divine power, why would he be so hot, his mouth would feel parched, especially in some indescribable places, why would he stand up silently?

"Ah, you also discovered this." Nautysius smiled sadly, "I did add some other medicine powder. Forgive me, my Hera, I really don't know what to do, forgive me I, I beg you..."

He didn't say what the specific medicine was, but Qi Xiao could already understand it just by looking at his own body reaction.

It is probably something that can arouse people's desires and make people be entangled by lust——

aphrodisiac!
