[Greek Mythology] Dangxiu Tai traveled through ancient Greece

On a small road in the countryside, a young girl is walking on the road with the help of a blind old man.

The girl was dressed plainly but had a beautiful face. Her feet in straw sandals and the hands supporting the old man were covered with thick calluses, and the bottom of her long skirt was also stained with a lot of mud.

Although the old man was blind, his expression was extremely peaceful and peaceful, his body was thin but he didn't look old and weak, and he could vaguely see a special demeanor that stood out from everyone else.

Under the reddish dusk, a quiet small village looms among the trees.

It was already evening, and the nightingale was already singing sweetly in the forest, accompanied by the sound of insects from time to time, and the flowers and plants in the wind accompanied by the fragrance of the soil.

The old man has been unable to see for many years, and his ears and nose have been trained to be very sensitive. Feeling the comfort and peace of this land, he can't help but feel good.

The girl has already seen a village in the distance, and a magnificent city can be seen further away.

She didn't think about going to the city, they had already gone for a long time today, and she only hoped that the people in the small village would show a little kindness and take them in for a night, even in a cowshed; or more Yes, you can give them a little food, even if it is moldy, and she will do work for them to repay them.

"Antigone," the old man slowed down and sighed, "I'm a little tired, let's sit down and rest for a while."

"Okay, father." Antigone looked around, found a slightly flat stone, and helped her father to go over and sit down.

The blind Oedipus sat down with the support of his daughter when a villager returning home from working in the field saw them. The villager walked over a few steps and ordered the old man and the girl to leave immediately, because this was the goddess of nemesis. Our sacred forest, any layman's stay will defile this sacred holy place.

Oedipus did not leave immediately as he said, because the oracle said his fate would be ended by the Furies.

He walked through many places but failed to find the location of the Furies mentioned in the oracle. Now that he heard the words of the villagers, he knew that he had finally found it, and the Furies would end this evil and sad fate for him.

During the wandering time, he wanted to end his life more than once, but there always seemed to be a force in the dark that stopped him, preventing him from going to the dark underground kingdom immediately.

So he desperately wants to find the Nemesis, because only they can fulfill his wish.

And now, the relief he wanted was coming.

To this end, Oedipus ignored the villagers' scolding and asked to see their king.

The villagers didn't want to pay attention to this lazy and blind old man, but the other party's demeanor and demeanor made him have some scruples.

Finally, the villagers agreed to Oedipus' request and went to the city to ask their king to take care of the matter.

After the villagers left, Antigone couldn't help crying, because she knew that her father was about to leave her forever.

"Don't cry, Antigone." Oedipus stroked his daughter's hair with his rough but powerful hands, and comforted her gently, "This is what I have been praying for all the time. My child, you may not know, I've always had a strange feeling that I don't belong to Thebes, I don't belong to humans, I don't even belong to any place on this earth. Maybe this is my destiny, and I shouldn't live in this world."

Antigone couldn't hold back her tears, "But I don't want to leave you, Father."

"Child..." Oedipus was about to comfort her, but suddenly he smelled a wonderful fragrance of flowers in his nose.

This floral fragrance is very special, it doesn't seem to belong to any kind of flowers, but it contains any kind of flowers, like roses for a while, lilies for a while, wild chrysanthemums, hyacinths, narcissus and so on.

"Antigone, there is a beautiful girl with a charming fragrance coming towards us." Oedipus speculated that it must be a noble woman who approached them, so that she could enjoy this wonderful and charming balm to dress up. Own.

When Antigone heard her father's words, she turned her head to look, but saw a scene that she would never forget in her life.

Among the dense bushes, a slender white hand stretched out from the green leaves, pushing away the branches blocking the way.

An exquisite face appeared behind the bushes, such a beautiful face that Antigone had never seen.

The pair of night-like black eyes saw them, and seemed to flash a star-like light.

The next moment, the visitor brushed away the bushes with both hands, and the whole person walked out.

When Antigone saw that face, she thought it was a naive young girl, but it wasn't until the other person showed her figure that she realized that it was a beautiful and slender young man.

This boy not only has an incomparably beautiful face, but also has enviably beautiful long hair.

That long black hair is like the night sky when the goddess of the night streaks across the sky, and there is even a galaxy formed by Hera's milk, which is dazzlingly beautiful.Even the garland of white daffodils in the hair can't take half of the light from the Milky Way night sky.

"Antigone?" Oedipus couldn't help but asked in doubt after hearing no sound.

"...I'm fine, father." Antigone's voice was dull, and she stared straight at the young man not far away, "Father, there is no beautiful girl, but a beautiful young man."

While speaking, the boy had already walked towards them.

In the afterglow of the sunset, golden rays of light poured down through the thick branches, forming light golden beams of light that fell on the young man.

The boy walking in the light is like a god falling from the sky.

Antigone didn't dare to look directly at this beauty, and couldn't help lowering her eyes, but saw that the other party's white feet that seemed to be shining were not wearing any pair of shoes that could match them, and those feet that were light and beautiful like clouds directly Stepping on the black ground made her feel distressed for a while.

But after a while, her heart trembled a little, because she saw those bare feet stepping on the ground, but they didn't get any specks of dust. Looking up, even the red hem Not a single leaf or blade of dead grass was ever stained.

The clothes on the boy's body were light and elegant, and the neck and hands were also covered with exquisite and complicated gold ornaments, but since he came from a lush forest, it was impossible to keep his clothes neat and tidy.

All this is unreasonable.

Antigone didn't dare to look directly at her anymore.

Because she has realized that this must be a god.

She recalled the other party's clothes and attire in her mind, and had a vague guess about the identity of this god, but she was not sure.

Unbeknownst to Flores, she has made an incredibly shocking and stunning appearance for Oedipus' daughter.

After he came to the earth with the invisible Hades, he found no trace of Oedipus.

When I went to Thebes, it happened that the two sons of Oedipus were fighting for the throne. The younger son Eteocles expelled his elder brother Polynix.

Flores secretly took a little blood from Eteocles, and searched for Oedipus with the traction of the blood.

The so-called straight line between two points is the shortest. He followed the direction of his divine power to look for Oedipus, who waded through mountains and rivers. When he saw forests, he burrowed in, flowed in rivers, and flew in mountains. He almost became a wild monkey climbing mountains and ridges. , and finally found Oedipus.

After finding the people, seeing that the soul of Oedipus was still alive and that no one was missing arms or legs, he finally felt relieved and approached them a few steps.

After thinking about it, he decided to pretend to be a passerby and asked gently: "Old man, it's getting dark, what are you doing here?"

Although Oedipus was blind, he had already noticed that the other party was unusual, and the strange silence of his daughter Antigone gave him a premonition.

"I'm here waiting for my destination." He replied almost respectfully to the young man in front of him, "Someone has already helped me to inform King Theseus here, as long as I get the permission of this beloved king, Here I shall find my peace, in the sacred grove of the Furies."

"The Sacred Grove of the Nemesis?" Flores chewed on these words, feeling a little annoyed.

Oh my, does such a thing still exist?What should I do if I want to set fire to the forest.

"Yes, maybe you know these three goddesses of benevolence and justice?" Oedipus had unknowingly added honorifics to his words.

He guessed it was a passing god, and as a human being who had always been devoted to gods, Oedipus was glad to meet a god before his own life came to an end.

"Benevolent and just?" Flores raised the corners of her lips and drew a long tone, "Benevolent and just Nemesis, why do you have such a perception?"

In fact, Erinyes, the goddess of revenge, has always been cruel and cruel, but human beings are afraid of their existence, so they generally use words to please them.

Flores also vaguely understood this, but she was not happy to hear such words.

Oedipus said lightly: "The gods are all merciful and just."

"Oh? Do you really think so?" Flores looked meaningfully at the old man who was blind but still majestic, "Oedipus."

Oedipus was silent.

"I beg you! The supreme god!" Antigone suddenly threw herself at Flores' feet, touching the soil under his feet with her forehead, "Don't take my father away! He is already a poor blind man with nothing. Old man, he wanders like a homeless man, sleeps in the wilderness, is driven out, and lives on handouts. He has lost his country, lost the love of his subjects, lost his noble name, lost his dignity Just ask the great god to give him even a little mercy, let him keep the little life left, and enjoy a peaceful and peaceful old age, and don't let his daughter feel the pain of losing his father!"

The author has something to say: Today gave Flores an incomparable appearance.As for the new gossip you guessed, hehe, I didn’t expect it, Hades has a special stealth skill~
