[Greek mythology] The troubles of Adonis

Although the rhetoric has just been released, Apollo is completely clueless about what the Pluto, who doesn't know what interests are, will cherish.

But he is not worried: a knotted rope has a long end and a short end. There is no perfect existence in the world, only the size of the defect is the difference.

Just as a musician who can play a melody that makes the listener sleep and dream does not need to be proficient in dozens of musical instruments, a pair of powerful arms may only be used to stabilizing a wrought iron hammer. Tempted by the bait on the hook, even the noble king still has to rely on the opinions of ministers to make decisions in many places.

The well-known wise man who was imprisoned by the enraged god king for giving fire seeds privately because of his compassion for mankind, and let the falcons peck at his internal organs every day, is probably the most likely person in this world to give him an answer.

Once he made up his mind, Apollo set off without further delay to the deliberately forgotten giant rock in the Agathon Mountains.The bright red helmet flutters in the wind, and the pure gold hair is the unique bright color of the sun. When he in the battle robe landed from the air in front of Prometheus who silently endured the severe pain, the other party did not surprise him at all. When he arrived, he only raised his head that had been lowered all the time, and looked at him calmly with folded eyelids that appeared vicissitudes after suffering.

"A prophet with a mixed reputation, it seems that you in the past have predicted my arrival today," Apollo has always respected people with a firm personality, especially the person in front of him is fighting to the death. Impossible Lord of the Sky.He did not forget to salute first, as if the status of this troubled descendant of Titan remained the same: "I did not come here to intentionally destroy your purity, nor to interfere with your eternal meditation, nor to be foolish enough to laugh at a man who has exhausted his heart and soul for his faith." Fighter, you just come with a problem that only you can solve."

Impressed by the long-lost respect and humility, Prometheus raised his eyes invisibly.

Apollo continued: "That is the master of the dark palace, his heart is the place of the tomb that has never been visited by the spring of love, what can move a heart that is harder than iron and stone, so that he can't even imagine The moment of loss can lead to rage, and the actual loss can make raindrops slide down the ice rocks."

After pondering for a moment, Prometheus slowly fixed his eyes on the God of Light who was eagerly waiting.

His lips were dry and chapped, and his voice was rough as if Ulva had been rubbed against a rock—

"The one who can make Hades can't help but bend down and kiss is born from the sins drawn by the god of love but keeps his heart pure, the gentle master of plants." He paused, and suddenly smiled strangely: "You and my disaster It’s all self-inflicted.”

"Plant god? Adonis?" Apollo had heard about this a little bit, and vaguely heard gloating from the deep tone of his voice, but no matter how much he asked, leaving this sentence seemed to be prophecy, self-deprecating and self-deprecating. After the cursing words, Prometheus kept a patient look with his eyes closed, without saying a word.

This made his original determination like leaves swaying with the ripples on the lake, and his thoughts were like a bag full of beans that seemed overcrowded, and he was completely in trouble.

Prometheus has no enmity with him, so naturally he will not be in vain, and the trip to the underworld is bound to be full of hardships and obstacles.

However, if he doesn't go, the bet he made with Ares will also be unilaterally voided, which means that he will be reduced to a laughing stock for a long time in the future.

After a fierce weighing of pros and cons, the God of Light, whose appearance is so handsome that the fairies are more excited than the sunshine he controls, stretched his frowning brows, chose to erase his reason, and resolutely turned his direction and went underground——

Compared with the possible loss of life, the absolute loss of face was even more unbearable for him.

Adonis was forced to swallow six Pluto pomegranate seeds, that is, he had to be in Hades' jurisdiction for half of the year.

As for that unbelievable kiss, it was secondary, especially after thinking about the constraints imposed on him, he didn't take it to heart at all.

Knowing that his strength is not enough, on the one hand he was troubled by doubts, on the other hand he had to endure the anger that seemed to be gushing out at any time, and turned his eyes to look at Pluto, who had recovered his quiet state.

Hades wore an unchanging black robe, which fluttered in the wind, and the blue blood vessels showed faintly on his pale skin due to lack of sun exposure. If his facial lines were drawn by someone, it must be a No matter how sharp a carving knife is, this is the outline that is as cold and hard as a sculpture.Driving the carriage majestically, his eyes are dark without stars and moons, and there is an abyss-like silence, quietly reflecting the gray golden spikes in the distance.

In order to speed up, it was rare to call out the names of these four steeds as a reminder——

"one two three four."

Adonis: "..."

Tears filled the eyes of the black horse whose name had been called, howling and running harder, whistling and whistling, spraying white mist, the huge wheels behind the back kicked up smoke and dust, and the dark carriage unstoppably passed through the open space The vast sea of ​​golden spikes sails swiftly towards the most majestic, majestic and majestic palace.

The golden spikes struggled to lift their heavy chins, and watched Pluto's car go away almost dumbfounded. If the aura of the other person sitting on it was not so familiar and friendly, they would probably think it was some vicious person The god changed into the form of Adonis.

The longing for a long time was actually dispelled in this way!

They are half proud and half lost thinking, once the beautiful and radiant jewels are monopolized by the mighty Majesty, there is no chance for him to find intimacy while walking among them.

Thanadus and his brother Hypnos did not miss this incredible scene.

After looking at each other, Thanadus was the first to say: "This is really—"

"Please be careful." Hypnos interrupted him gently: "This is His Majesty's choice."

"Damn love, there is no reason for it to come, but it will affect everyone." Once he started to imagine the scene of His Majesty falling in love with a slumped face, Thanadus felt his scalp go numb and twitched the corners of his mouth. : "Are you sure it wasn't Aphrodite's conspiracy?"

Hypnos denied it without hesitation: "Are you questioning His Majesty's wisdom?"

Thanadus muttered resentfully: "I just question whether my head is clear or not."

Hypnos smiled slightly: "There is nothing wrong with that, His Majesty always sees farther and clearly than you."

What makes them even more incomprehensible is that Pluto did not bring the plant god directly back to the main hall, but all the way to the Elysee.

"Your Majesty," Adonis found the opportunity to speak, and gave up the tedious question: "Why?"

It was still hard for him to believe that Pluto would be as foolish as a god king who was easily fascinated by sex, it might be because of another reason.

Hades turned his head slowly, with an unfathomable expression.

Adonis was fearless, with a pair of eyes full of brilliance like agate, facing his sharp eyes like ice crystals.

Unexpectedly, Pluto first staggered his eyes, leaned over, picked him up very naturally, and stuffed him into the hut in the center of Elysee.

Adonis stood still in embarrassment, and said angrily: "Does Your Majesty want to imprison me?!"

Hades: "Yeah."

He admitted so frankly and frankly, but made the unexpected Adonis speechless for a while.

Hades was silent for a moment, then asked again: "Would you like to stay forever?"

Adonis replied reflexively, "Of course not."

Just as the God King used as an excuse before, he was born in Sappho, and he should naturally return there in the end.This is not simply caused by a sense of belonging, the closer he is to the source of divine power, the more comfortable he will be at manipulating divine power.

Although it is not at present, the gods are immortal and youthful. When this uproar is completely over, and he has also paid off the kindness that Pluto gave him to improve his godhead, he can quietly return to the original place.

"I also control all the wealth in the underground at the same time." After Hades finished speaking, he observed Adonis' facial expression and saw that there was no change, so he thought about it seriously and turned to temptation: "I can give you godhead."

Even though the wording was concise enough, Adonis was still on the verge of exhaustion: "I don't need it—and besides, how could the Empress of the Underworld be a man!"

Hades said flatly: "Don't care about the irrelevant."

Adonis had a splitting headache: "But I mind very much."

He no longer has the heart to investigate how Pluto came up with such a sensational idea, he just wants to get rid of this ridiculous and ridiculous idea as soon as possible.

Hades thought about it impatiently, and continued to promise: "I can also hand over Hermes to you."

Adonis was helpless: "The enmity between me and him is not deep."

If the other party wants to help Zeus abduct him, you have to count the time when he escaped from Aphrodite, which is enough to offset the merits and demerits.

Hades frowned disapprovingly.

Adonis breathed out slowly, even restrained his smile, and said, "I won't act rashly, please let me out, Your Majesty."

Even though His Majesty Pluto, who is so busy every day, will come to play tricks on him in a dignified manner—how unrealistic this guess may sound at first, it can't compare to the horror that the other party really wants him to be the queen of the underworld.

"Well."

Hades responded vaguely and took a step back, but before the relieved Adonis could follow up, he directly sealed the door heavily with divine power.

Adonis: "..."

Immediately afterwards, the voice of Hades came through the heavy door.The tone of voice was still the same flat and calm tone from ancient times, but this time it was rare to add a bit of magnanimity.

"Think quickly."

——If you always disagree, never come up with it.
