[Greek Mythology] Dangxiu Tai traveled through ancient Greece

After trekking through mountains and rivers for countless days, Flores finally saw the familiar scenery.

Laughing, he rode his horse forward, yelling loudly with one hand bent over his mouth like a trumpet: "I'm back! Narcissus! Kephissos! Lariope! I'm back—"

After a while, the two figures of Kefessos and Leriope appeared in front of them.

Flores quickly got off the horse and ran towards them, "Long time no see, I'm back!"

Lyriope grabbed his arm, looked him up and down, and kept saying, "Son, where have you been? Why did it take you so long to come back?"

Although Kefissos was also full of joy at his return, he still noticed something was wrong, "Flores, your aura has changed... have you become a god?"

"We'll talk about this later," Flores looked around, but didn't see Narcissus, "Where's Naxis? Where did he go? Has he returned from hunting?"

After listening to his question, Leriope's tears fell suddenly, and he couldn't cry: "Narcisus... Narcissus...he, he..."

Seeing her like this, Flores immediately had a bad feeling in his heart, "What happened to Naxi? What happened to him?"

Leriope was still crying so hard that he couldn't speak, and Kefessos also looked indescribably sad. Flores' heart sank and he breathed heavily, "Naxi...is he dead?"

"No, he's still alive," Kephissos sighed, "but he's dead."

"What's going on?" Flores was very agitated by his vague words, and was extremely concerned about the safety of Narcissus, "Tell me, Kephesos! What happened to Narcissus? He Where are you now?!"

"I'll take you to see him right away." Kephissos comforted Leriope and told her to go home first, and then led Flores to their usual hunting place.

Flores followed the silent Kephissos all the way, the oppressive atmosphere made him almost out of breath, until Kephissos stopped in front of a lake and pointed, "Look, Naxi Seth is right there."

Flores looked along where his finger was pointing, and there was a man with disheveled hair and an extremely casual appearance lying on the lakeside, his thick hair blocked his face, making it impossible to see clearly.

He turned his head and looked at Kefessos in confusion, facing the deep sadness in his eyes, "Flores, go and see him."

After finishing speaking, Kefessos turned around and left quickly without even looking at the people over there.

Flores was puzzled and anxious, and at the same time, a heavy worry came to his heart. He no longer tried to seek answers from Kephissos, and strode towards the people by the lake.

When he ran a few steps away, he couldn't help but slow down and squatted down beside the man.

He stretched out his hand and was about to brush away the thick hair of the other party, but the other party had already raised his head.

Flores stiffened.

He couldn't believe that the person in front of him was Narcissus.

The bright blue eyes in the past have become dull, with sunken eye sockets, his complexion is blue and black, short stubble has appeared under his lips, and his originally strong body is even more emaciated.

"Oh, Flores, you are finally back." A gleam flashed in Narcissus' eyes, "I have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Nasi, what happened? What are you doing here?" Flores grabbed his arm and was about to pull him up, "Let's go back, Leriope is waiting for you at home, and Kephissos is also very happy." Worrying about you."

Narcissus shook his head, pulled his arm back from his hand, looked at the shadow on the water, and murmured, "I can't go back, Flores."

"Can't go back? What do you mean?" Flores was extremely anxious, and the ominous premonition in his heart was getting stronger and stronger after seeing the situation since he came back, "Why do you have to stay here? You made yourself like this What a bad look?!"

"Because of love?" Narcissus chuckled lightly, with strong sarcasm, "Because I fell in love with someone..."

"Who did you fall in love with?" Flores sneered as she became more and more confused, "It's not like you, Narcissus, to make yourself look like this because you fell in love with someone. In the past, you rejected those suitors Where did your indifference and unfeeling go? Haven't you always dismissed so-called love?"

"So I got retribution, it's ridiculous." Narcissus also sneered, pointed at the shadow on the water, with deep love in his eyes, "I fell in love with him."

Flores widened her eyes in disbelief, looked at him, looked at his reflection in the water, and then looked at him again. After going back and forth several times, she rolled her eyes angrily, "Don't be kidding, even if you really Narcissistic enough to fall in love with myself, I can pour a basin of water for you to keep watching when I get home, now, come back with me!"

As he said that, he stretched out his hand to tease Narcissus again, and decided to take him back no matter what the other party said.

No matter what happened, he had to find a solution. If Narcissus was allowed to stay here, this guy would definitely torture himself to death.

Narcissus shook off his hand fiercely, and said coldly: "You know I never joke!"

"Ha! So what you said is true?! You fell in love with your own shadow, and then you didn't go home despite Kephissos and Leriope's concerns, and you made yourself so emaciated?!" Flores laughed back angrily, reached out and grabbed his messy hair, and said angrily, "Tell me, tell me clearly, what's going on?!"

Narcissus was in pain, pulled back his hair, did not look at the shadow in the water, and sighed, "I am cursed, Flores."

"Curse?" Flores frowned when she heard the words, and the anger in her heart was replaced by worry, "What curse? Who cursed you? And why?"

"Aphrodite, Moros, or Nemesis? Who knows which one?" Narcissus smiled coldly, turning his head to look at the shadow on the water, with mixed feelings of love and hatred in his eyes.

This indifferent and conceited boy in the past smiled miserably, and the water in his eyes flashed, "When I saw myself in the water, I understood that this is a curse given to me by fate. It controls my emotions. Controlling my body and my behavior and leading me to a dead end."

"How is this possible? What kind of curse can manipulate other people's emotions? Make you fall in love with yourself?" Flores looked at the shadows of the two young men on the water in shock.

Just like himself, he is so beautiful, manly (?), can cook and make clothes, but he can't like himself, it's ridiculous.

"Flores, you always underestimate the power of the gods." Narcissus's tone was always cold, clearly a warning of concern, and he could always say it like sarcasm, "You'd better change your inherent thinking , otherwise you will suffer a lot in the future.”

"I didn't underestimate the power of the gods," even if he had before, but the series of things that happened since he fell into the underworld had fully made him feel the power of the gods. Flores squinted at him impatiently, " But falling in love with yourself is so curious, although you are pretty good-looking, it's not like you haven't seen yourself before, how could this happen suddenly?"

"So this is a curse, so abrupt and absurd." Narcissus bent down, pointed at the lake with his fingers, and let the ripples swaying round and round disturb the reflection on the water, his voice gradually became depressed, "Fer Loris, I can think clearly, but I can't control my heart, as if I have become two people. My soul knows that all this should not be done, and I want to leave here, but my body keeps pushing me. I stayed... this uncontrollable feeling of being dominated, it sucks."

"Do you know what to do? You can't stay here forever... By the way, how long have you been here?" Flores looked at his emaciated body, and suddenly realized that this guy is also the blood of God, after all, How on earth did you bring yourself into such a ghostly state?

Narcissus shook his head indifferently, "I didn't pay attention, it seems that I stayed for a long time. For a while, the weather suddenly became extremely cold, and the lake was frozen..."

The weather became extremely cold, it should be when he came back as the God of Ice and Snow... It's been so long!

Flores was about to perform an explosion on the spot. He stared at Narcissus frantically. If he hadn't seen that Narcissus was so emaciated and out of shape, he would have grabbed Narcissus and shaken him a few times, "So you haven't eaten or drank all this time. Keeping here for so long?! You don't want to die? Don't forget that you are not an immortal god!"

Although Kephissos is a river god, Leriope is just an ordinary water nymph. Although she will not age or get sick, she has no eternal lifespan and will die when her lifespan expires.

Although Narcissus is the son of the river god, he also inherited the blood of the water nymph Leriope. Although his lifespan is much longer than that of ordinary nymphs, he will die of weakness.

"I know, as long as my strength is stronger, I won't be trapped here now." Narcissus said lightly.

Hearing this, Flores felt a little uncomfortable.

Narcissus has always been confident and proud, when has he ever had such a dejected side.

He patted him on the shoulder to comfort him, "Don't worry, no matter it's a curse or something, there will always be a solution. After we solve it, we will investigate and find out who is doing this to you behind the scenes, and find a way to get revenge he!"

If the other party is really too powerful, they will plan carefully, and they will always find a chance to retaliate, but he still has two godheads.

Narcissus nodded, looked at the lake and said nothing.
