[Greek Mythology] So I am a sunflower

Chapter 69 So This Is An Old Acquaintance

Lin Miao hooked Hades' hand, and slowly followed him to the door of a house.Hades knocked twice at the door, and the two waited quietly outside.With a creak, the door of Laocoon's house opened quietly, and a boy who looked only twelve or thirteen years old came out.He was dressed casually, and his appearance was even more youthful, but his attitude was already very decent, and his makeup was almost like an adult.The young man put one hand on the door and came out to look around in a lack of energy. When he saw Lin Miao and Hades, he withdrew his hand and said with a straight face, "Who are you? What are you here for?"

His tone was very mature, and his questions were quick and urgent, almost cross-examination.This inevitably made people feel a little uncomfortable. Lin Miao frowned and was about to speak, but heard the voice of a middle-aged man scolding him from inside.

"Police, you are too rude." Although the voice was not loud, the words were sharp.Such severe accusations immediately made the boy blush.He didn't dare to look at Lin Miao and the two of them anymore, turned his head and ran back into the house while dragging his shoes. The person who came out sighed and seemed to want to reprimand him, but finally stopped and hurried out of the house. He bowed and bowed, "It's really disrespectful..."

He lowered his head and said this apologetically, seeming a little uneasy.Seeing that Lin and Miao didn't complain, they raised their heads again: "It's because I treat him too loosely, please don't take offense..."

As soon as his eyes touched Hades' face, he stopped suddenly, showing a look of panic.He seemed to be in disbelief, and kept looking at Hades, with some fear, and then at Lin Miao next to him. He moved his fingers, suddenly lost his voice, and knelt on the ground in panic: "You...you don't know?" yes……"

This is a middle-aged man in his forties. He looked very calm at first, but at this moment his appearance is obviously very different.

"Are you Laocoon?" Seeing the expression on his face looking at Hades, Lin Miao was already [-]% sure of his identity, but she still asked one more question just to be on the safe side.Fearing that she would scare him, she deliberately lowered her tone, and this person really calmed down a little, and his hands didn't move that much.

Laocoon turned his head towards her and replied humbly, "I am. Do you have any orders?"

Seeing that Laocoon seemed to know nothing, Lin Miao pondered for a moment before asking, "Do you know Cassandra?"

Laocoon trembled slightly, and then said in a low voice after a while, "Are you asking about Cassandra...I know her. I am also a priest of the Sun God."

He looked at Lin Miao's face with some horror, and after a long time said cautiously: "Are you going to..."

what to doLin Miao didn't know either.

She was still hesitating in her heart, but she didn't know what she was hesitating for. At this time, Hades had already opened her mouth one step ahead of her, and dropped something from her sleeve: "Take this."

He threw a torch-like thing at Laocoon's feet, and said coldly: "Light the torch, and the fire will never go out until everything is burned."

Lin Miao was terrified, and understood what he meant in an instant.

Hades actually wanted all the Trojans to be raped and die.

This is not a good idea. After all, not everyone is doomed to die. If the fire is so hot, no one may be able to escape...

But Laocoon held up the torch with both hands trembling, and his cheeks twitched a little: "Thank you...thank you for your gift..."

Although he thanked him, he seemed to be old and depressed, and he couldn't even speak coherently.

"Thank you..." He was still talking, but Hades was already impatient and continued to listen.

Seeing Hades walk away, Lin Miao pursed her lips and followed. She took the time to look back, but saw Laocoon was still kneeling on the ground, meditating with the torch in his hand, not knowing what he was thinking.

Will he light the torches as he breaks the city?Or hold on to the last remaining hope and persevere until the end?

Lin Miao was glad that he didn't have to make this difficult decision by himself. In fact, the right to make a life-and-death decision should also belong to the Trojans.

"Bring Patroclus' body, let's go back quickly." Lin Miao tried her best to speak lightly, not wanting to affect Hades' mood.It's just that she is not good at disguising her thoughts after all, and she will be exposed easily. She was a little worried that Hades would expose her suddenly. Fortunately, Hades accepted her kindness.

Lin Miao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He nodded and had no objection to Lin Miao's decision.The two walked forward slowly, feeling very peaceful and serene.

It's just that sometimes there are circling vultures, and sometimes there are barking dogs, mixed with cicadas and birds, which always makes people feel a little sad.

Walking slowly like this is not very tiring. Although he could turn into a bird and fly to the Greek camp in an instant, neither of them made such a suggestion.Gradually seeing the scattered cooking smoke, Lin Miao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had let go of something, and finally he was not so stagnant.

"Here we are." She squeezed Hades' hand, smiled at him, and sped up her slow pace a little.This time, they didn't hide their figures at all, and walked in directly.The guards around the outside were very loose. They watched them go in and ignored them lazily. Lin Miao and Hades went in like this, and walked to Achilles' tent according to memory.

As they got closer, they discovered that the gray smoke was coming from Achilles' tent.

Is it celebrating?

Lin Miao's heart moved, but she felt that it was too quiet in here, it didn't seem like a feast, but besides the fire lit by Ye Yin, what else could there be so much smoke?

She walked over slowly, but saw a group of people surrounded there, and the smoke was released from the center of the crowd.

The atmosphere was too quiet, and Lin Miao's heart was pounding unsteadily. Through the gap in the crowd, she glanced sideways, and only saw a pile of wood, on which there was a person lying.

"Patroclus! Unlucky man! My dearest! When I left this tent, you advised me not to grieve, and you said that you would make me the wife of the hero Achilles, and let me be in all Greece. A wedding is held among people, but you are lying here without saying a word. My former husband was killed in the city, and three of my brothers died in this war. Now even the most gentle and noble you are here How could I not be sad, shrouded in darkness, summoned by Hades?"

A woman cried and sang such words, and the other women around her also mourned and cried. This scene is similar to Hector's death.

The Greek generals stood aside, unable to see their faces clearly. Only one stood up and threw a torch into the pile of wood.The tongue of flame jumped up and engulfed Patroclus lying on it, and the crunching sound of burning wood rang out lively. The sky was bright and warm, which made people like it.

"Let's go."

Hearing what Hades said, Lin Miao pursed her lips and slightly raised the corners of her mouth, feeling her heart was warmed by the gushing fire: "Well, let's go."

She no longer has to come.

Sitting on the carriage, the sun had gradually set at the foot of the mountain, and the black carriage seemed to be racing against the sun, flying into Hades just before it sank.

The door opened and closed again heavily, the last ray of light was also locked outside.

"That torch...what is it?" This kind of darkness gave Lin Miao an endless sense of belonging. She felt relieved, but suddenly remembered something, and asked by the way.

Hades has a lot of treasures, the torch looks too simple, just listened to what Hades said just now, it must be of extraordinary origin, she was not in the mood to think about it at the time, but now she has thought about it Lai: "It looks very ordinary, what's your name?"

"No name." Hades thought for a while before giving her an answer, "It's not a good thing either. I haven't heard of any name for the thing that Prometheus received the fire when he stole the fire."

When Prometheus stole the fire, he received the tinder...

Lin Miao nodded, and after a while she exclaimed in shock, "Isn't that very precious!"

"What's so precious?" Seeing her making a fuss, Hades asked back, "Now even the mortal world is full of fire, what's so great about fire?"

After thinking about it, Lin Miao felt that what he said was true, but she always felt that something was awkward: "Although I said so, the first copy is always commemorative..."

Hades snorted for a while, and slapped his whip, and the carriage turned around. Lin Miao was still thinking about whether the torch was worthless, but when he turned his head suddenly, he saw a familiar face.

"Stop, stop!" Lin Miao jumped up in a jerk, lying on the side of the carriage and facing there, and greeted Hades with his hands behind his back, "I...I seem to see Patroclus!"

As if trying to understand what he said, the man who looked like Patroclus turned around slowly, as if he saw her. His eyes were slightly bent, revealing a very relaxed smile .

Hades' carriage stopped.Lin Miao jumped down nimbly holding her skirt, and ran over there quickly, finally standing in front of Patroclus.

"It's the third time, aren't you going to tell me your name?" He said lazily, not caring about the gloomy extradition people around him, as if this is not the dark underworld, but just the mountains and forests that can be seen everywhere in the mortal world .

Lin Miao opened her mouth and was about to answer him, when Charon, who was holding an oar next to her, said in a gloomy voice, "Master Cluti, is it this one you have been waiting for before?"

"Clutie?" Patroclus's eyes flashed with a little light, "Have you been here... have you been waiting for me for a long time?"

The author has something to say: If you don’t go online in the dormitory, there is no way to upload pictures. If you are interested, you can visit the statue of Laocondi. He was the only one when the Greeks wanted to break Troy with a Trojan horse. The Trojans, who firmly believed that the Greeks had a conspiracy, angered the gods. Both he and his two sons were killed by a serpent. . . ?﹏?

Feel free to recommend Verdi's opera The Force of Destiny, the overture is very good! ● v ●!
