[Greek mythology] The fountain of youth

Deucalion and his wife Pyrrha, as the only two people who survived the flood of Zeus, threw back their mother's bone, and the stone quickly transformed into a human being, and there was no trace of people on the earth again.

Humans have always been weak and strong, and it didn't take long for humans to come back to life, even more prosperous than before.

Deucalion and his wife Pila learned the reason for the last human demise, and they made a change this time. This group of newborn humans all devoutly believed in the gods.

This made Zeus very satisfied.

Deucalion became the leader of this group of people. He was the first to build a city and the temples of the gods on earth, and he was also the first king among humans.

In order to thank Hebe, the goddess of youth, for helping the couple, Cadriolion built many temples of the goddess of youth in the world. Apart from the main god-level temples, there are many temples of the goddess of youth in the world.

Ever since Heber penetrated the power of hope, his divine power has grown to a certain extent, and it didn't take long for her divine power to stabilize at around the level of second-class gods and middle-level gods before she broke through.

She sensed a steady stream of faith, and when she looked into the human world, it turned out that it was because of the enshrining of the temple that the level of divine power was increased.

Ospirin, which is eternally joyous, started banquets again and again. Because of the changes in the ranks of the gods, Hebe grew up, but Hebe did not face the gods as an adult.

She still faced the gods with her fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl appearance, and Heber shuttled between the banquets in the image of a girl at the banquet.

She is the cupbearer of the gods. Only Hebe can pour delicious wine at the banquet, but not everyone at the banquet can drink this wine. Only gods above the first level can drink Hebe at the banquet. Drinks poured.

In her previous life, Hebe was kind and innocent. She treated all the gods at the banquet equally, and brought them youthful vigor and drinks that could relieve fatigue, without asking for a single compliment. Now she will not do that.

At the banquet, the nine muses showed off their beautiful singing voices, danced gracefully, and were full of laughter.

Hebe was pouring wine for Aphrodite, the god of beauty, and the eyes of the god of beauty were attracted by the singing and dancing of the muses, "Oh..." Her beautiful eyes fell on Hebe.

"Goddess of youth, Hebe?" For the job of sommelier, Hebe, who fished for three days and posted nets for two days, practiced his divine power in the temple and rarely came out to meet people.

Aphrodite took Hebe's hand with her weak and boneless little hand. She smiled and said holding Hebe, "You were the one who sent me to Olympus, sit down and let me Take a good look at you."

Due to his height, Hebe, who was hugged by Aphrodite, slammed his cheek into the soft place.

"We haven't seen each other since the last time, I should go to your Temple of Youth to pay a good visit to you." The goddess Lahebo sat with her enthusiastically.

The last time Hebe followed the envoy Hermes to meet Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty, was just to watch the excitement. Aphrodite was surrounded by sea nymphs. Strictly speaking, this was the first official meeting between the two of them. Meet.

The most beautiful goddess in the world, staring at her with great interest, "Oh sweetheart, you are still a child! I like you as soon as I see you. Hermes and Ares always mention you."

"It's so cute!" The goddess hugged Hebe into her arms full of love and affection, and the fragrance from Aphrodite wrapped around Hebe's body tightly like a snake, just like Aphrodite The same soft and boneless ones make people feel soft all over.

Ares, the god of war next to the seat, joked, "Afu doesn't see me at all now." Aphrodite glanced at Ares with tender eyes, and said half-truthfully, "What's wrong with a tough stinky man?" Well, the fragrant goddess is the one who attracts people's liking."

Aphrodite's passionate eyes fell on Hebe. She seemed to have a magical power, and no one could refuse her, the goddess of beauty.

She pulled Hebe into her seat and sat with Hebe. She looked at Hebe lovingly and poured Hebe wine cup by cup. The people at the banquet originally wanted to exchange feelings with the God of Beauty, but there was Hebe. The light bulb was here, but Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty, ignored it.

Aphrodite's attention was on Hebe throughout the whole process, her mouth was full of sweet words, and she coaxed Hebe to drink one glass of wine after another. Hebe didn't even know how he returned to the Temple of Youth yesterday. remembered.

I only remember the look in Aphrodite's eyes at the end, so lonely.

Early the next morning, before he woke up from the wine, his mother Hera sent her messenger, the goddess of the rainbow, Iris, to ask Hebe to come over.

Hebe went to his mother's palace top-heavy. He was still dizzy from the wine, and his whole body was so soft that he was on top of the limp, wishing he could fall asleep.

The queen Hera taught Heber a lesson when she saw it, "It's fine for your brother Ares to keep entangled with that woman, but you also..." While making people prepare something to sober up.

Hebe's hands were numb, and he felt better after drinking the hangover potion prepared by Hera, "Did you hear that? Hebe, stay away from her."

In fact, Hebe didn't listen to what the mother god Hera said before. After waking up from the drink, Hebe suffered from a headache, and Hebe, who was sick and nauseated, didn't pay attention to the mother god's words. That's right, yes, yes."

Anyway, Hera's meaning behind the words should be to warn Hebe to stay away from Aphrodite. After all, Hera has always been extremely disgusted with the goddess of beauty hovering around her two sons all her life.

Seeing that Heber's condition is not good, Hera didn't say anything more, but just asked Heber to rest well, and let Heber go back to the Temple of Youth.

When Hebe returned to his palace, a group of nymphs surrounded Hebe. Four fans fanned the wind. Two nymphs squeezed Hebe's shoulders and rubbed his back, and the other gently rubbed Hebe's head. There are two fairies peeling grapes.

After a lot of tossing, he finally sobered up. Heber hammered his head. He drank too much, as if two people were fighting inside his head. Aphrodite was beautiful, but she didn’t like the goddess either. How can I be attracted, and drink so much wine.

Suddenly there was a movement from the west side of the temple, and Heber came to the west side of the bedroom with a thought. Several maids guarding Pandora were injured by Pandora. On her neck, she muttered, "Haha, die, die..."

Hebe immediately took the candlestick next to him, and hit Pandora on the back of the neck, she immediately fell limply, the rescued maid was panting heavily, trembling all over.

Pandora hurting people has happened several times, Pandora's spirit is too abnormal, every time she goes crazy without any sign, and then suddenly hurts people.

The key point is that apart from Hebe, the Temple of Youth is full of harmless Nymph goddesses, and they can't take care of Pandora at all. For the safety of other people in the temple, Pandora can no longer stay in the Temple of Youth.

To quickly find a way to send Pandora away, and about the hidden box at the bottom of the magic box, Heber must ask Hephaestus.

Without further ado, Hebe hurried to the depths of the Hephaestus volcano. Before he entered, he saw Athena coming out with an angry face. Hebe greeted with a smile, "Good day, Athena." Athena saw the coming The person froze for a moment, nodded to Heber and hurried away.

Walking into the hall, Hephaestus leaned against the hot production table in a daze. He seemed to have just made something. A piece of parts were scattered on the ground, and the furnace of the production table was burning. He was bare chested, holding a hammer, and sat slumped On the ground, with sweat all over his body and face, Heber walked around the underground parts lightly and sat next to his brother Hephaestus.

Hephaestus turned his head stiffly, saw that Heber was lost, and then sat a little further away. He wiped the sweat from his face, "I'm covered in sweat, don't get you dirty."

Immediately afterwards, Hebe also moved his position and sat closer to Hephaestus. Hephaestus was her elder brother. He was not liked by Zeus Hera because he was born lame, and he didn't grow up in Ospirin since he was a child.

He was adopted by the sea goddess Thetis and returned to Ospirin after he became an adult, so his relationship with his brothers and sisters is a little strange.

Looking at Hephaestus, Heber had a lot of questions in his mind, "Why did you help Athena? Why did Athena come here just now?" He didn't know how to speak,

Hephaestus stiffly picked up a white towel to wipe off his sweat, and Heber rested his head on his elder brother's shoulder, "I just saw Sister Athena leave here."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Heber wanted to slap himself, it was too blunt, why did he ask directly!Hephaestus was inherently shy.

Leaning on her brother's shoulder, she felt that Hephaestus's muscles seemed to be stiff and contracting. He smiled wryly, "Well..." After a long silence, he suddenly said something endlessly, "I and She proposed." He buried his head under the white scarf, "She refused."

Shocking news!I never heard of this in my previous life!Brother Hephaestus likes Athena?

Brother Hephaestus and Athena originally had such a story. Athena was the daughter of Zeus and the goddess of wisdom Metis (the first queen of Zeus).

At that time, Metis was pregnant, and Gaia and Uranus predicted that Metis would give birth to a son who would overthrow Zeus.

Fearing that the prophecy would come true, Zeus swallowed Metis whole. The cruel heavenly father devoured his pregnant wife. After that, Zeus had intermittent headaches, which later turned into severe headaches.

He couldn't sleep, and he had a splitting headache all the time. He asked Apollo to heal him, but Apollo couldn't cure him.

At his request, Vulcan had no choice but to do so, and when he chopped down, there was a burst of white light, and a goddess with bright eyes and a sharp coat jumped out of the split head.

That was the first encounter between the brother of Hephaestus and the goddess of bright eyes Athena.
