But this dark situation didn't last for a long time. Apollo's eyes suddenly lit up, and then a large expanse of green came into view. Only then did he realize that he had fallen into the boundless vines.And the soft thing that entangled his body was the large net woven by countless vines.

The translucent green leaves are clustered one after another, and large bunches of purple and blue grapes are hanging among them, as long as you stretch out your hand, you can touch them. If you use a little more force, the exquisite fruits will burst, and the sweet juice It scattered and splashed on the face and lips.

Apollo was dragged by the giant net, and moved slowly among countless vines, green leaves and fruits. The soft vines and leaves swept across his face, feeling itchy.The rich aroma of wine mixed with the fresh aroma of grapes and the fragrance of green leaves blends into a ecstatic taste, which makes the God of Light linger on him. He actually hopes that the vineyard can be bigger, so that this comfortable feeling Stay longer.

As expected, there were enough grape vines for the God of Dionysus. After a long time, the God of Light saw something other than grapes, and was immediately taken aback.

I saw a black leopard lying under the densely packed grape trellises, and I don't know if it was sleeping or resting.It was much larger than the usual leopards, with smooth fur and a healthy body, and it seemed that it had been well taken care of.

The grape net wrapped around the God of Light was unbiased and just moved to the top of the leopard, turned over again, and with a strong shake, Apollo fell down and landed on the leopard's generous back.

With the soft and thick fur under it, he didn't feel any pain at all, but he was a little worried that he might annoy this proud big cat.As a long-range shooter, although he is not afraid of it, if he fights with it, he will definitely hurt it, which he does not want to see.

So after he fell on the back of the black panther, he quickly sat upright and wanted to jump off, but at this moment, the black panther suddenly stood up.With this sudden movement, the God of Light tilted his body, fell on its back again, and grabbed a large chunk of fur on its neck. The black panther let out a low growl and shook its head.

Does it hurt?

Apollo was a little guilty, and he didn't rush to get down. He lay on its back, touched it a few times, and patted its head to express comfort. He didn't know if it would agree.

It wasn't until this time that the panther realized that there was an extra person on its back, and turned its head with difficulty, looking at Apollo.Long eyelashes surround a pair of big black and white eyes, and the black pupils occupy most of the space. The eyes are like a child's, pure and ignorant.

It just looked at Apollo quietly without any movement, as if wondering what to do next.

Apollo smiled, stroked its head again and again, regardless of whether it understood or not, and said to himself: "I am Apollo, the God of Light, and I came to drink with your master. He must Not here, is it? But his wine is here, can you take me to look for it? Be good, really be good. "

After the black panther heard it, he understood what he meant instantly, turned his head, carried him on his back, and walked forward slowly.

Apollo was overjoyed, he didn't expect the animals raised by Dionysus to be so human.He quickly sat up straight, his hands didn't know where to grasp, and he simply hugged the panther's neck.

There are grape trellises along the way, countless drooping vines brushing over the body, and the face is as gentle as the spring breeze.All kinds of wild beasts that are common in the forest shuttle back and forth under the grape trellis, not only leopards, but also lions and tigers.They were not surprised when they saw this person or a leopard, nor did they rush forward impatiently, or yawn lazily, walk slowly, or lie on the ground, refusing to move, and they don't know if it's all day long. Soaked in the aroma of wine, all the beasts looked a bit drunk.

Apollo was blowing the breeze, smelling the fruit fragrance, looking at the beautiful scenery, and riding a black panther. He couldn't help feeling that the Temple of Dionysus is really a good place. If there is nothing to do in the future, he will come here often. Dionysus probably won't mind it.

After passing through the layers of grape trellises, the panther brought Apollo to a spring, where the aroma of wine was the strongest, and just smelling it made him almost drunk.

Apollo looked in surprise at the crystal clear liquid gushing out from the crevice of the stone, and a few drops just splashed on his lips, and he licked it with his tongue: it turned out to be really wine.It was quite different from what he drank in Troy, but it tasted good.

The wine is like a real spring, constantly splashing out, converging on the ground into a gurgling stream, flowing forward, winding, leading to the depths of the vines, not Know where the end is.

The black panther walked to the edge of Jiuquan, ignoring the crystal water droplets splashing on its fur, and lay down very understandingly.Apollo just lifted his foot and walked off its back easily.But he didn't impatiently walk to the spring, knelt down and drank heavily. Instead, he picked up a handful of spring water and began to wash the little dirt on his face and arms along the way.

The black panther was lying behind him, with a look of surprise in its pure black pupils: it was the first time it had seen someone use wine as water.

After the God of Light washed himself clean, he didn't drink any alcohol. Instead, he went to a vine beside him, picked a bunch of purple fruits, and then lay down next to the black panther. On the edge of the mouth, bite off one by one, and then bite through the thin skin, so that the fresh and sweet juice fills the entire mouth, and then let out a satisfied sigh.

What's so good about wine?The grapes here are much better.

The panther stayed aside, watching him quietly, from the rosy fingertips holding the grapes, to the soft tongue licking his lips, to the snow-white neck that was raised in a graceful arc.Looking at it, its pair of black eyes became deeper, its bright red tongue stretched out to its mouth, and licked it slowly a few times.

After a while, the God of Light finished enjoying his fresh fruit, stood up, looked curiously at the stream formed by the wine spring, and said to himself: "The wine at the banquet of the gods is not scooped directly from here, is it?" ? So where does it lead?"

He followed the stream to the deepest part of the grape grove, thought for a while, and said to the panther with a smile, "Little guy, thank you for bringing me here. Go back, and I'll look further."

After speaking, he took a few steps forward, and suddenly heard a barely audible sound of footsteps behind him. He looked back and saw that black panther was following behind with graceful steps.When he stopped, it stopped too.

"Are you going too?" Apollo asked.

The panther stared at him motionlessly, and didn't answer, nod, or make other gestures of affirmation.The black grape-like eyes looked innocent and cute at the same time, embedded in such a big guy, there was a strange harmony.

It really doesn't look like a leopard in the mountains, but more like a domestic kitten.

"Okay, okay, then let's go together. It's good to have someone as a companion, no, it's a leopard." Apollo smiled, and patted the side of the big cat a few times, with the right amount of force, just right .

It made a few gurgling sounds from its mouth, as if rolling out of its throat.

According to the few experiences that the God of Light has in contact with animals, this is what it means to be comfortable.

It really is a big cat.

The God of Light laughed again.If he had such an interesting pet, he would definitely keep it with him every day, and he didn't know why that Dionysus guy left it here, and went to wander in the world by himself, hanging out with a group of drunk lunatics all day long.

One person and one leopard walked along the wine stream to the depths of the grape vines.The panther seemed to like Apollo very much, rubbing his head against his palm from time to time.The hair on its head is a little hard, and it makes the palm of the hand itchy.As long as Apollo touched it, it seemed to enjoy it, and its eyes narrowed into a slit.

I don't know how long I walked, and finally came to a huge stone door.The stream flowed in from the stone slab under the door, and then disappeared without a trace.I don't know what's inside the door. Apollo put his ears on the cold stone to listen, but he couldn't hear any sound. It was so quiet that there was no one inside.

He hesitated for a moment, wanting to open the door and go in, but felt that it was not good to be so ostentatious in someone else's house—maybe it was Dionysus' bedroom.He has no penchant for peeking into other people's bedrooms.

Just when Apollo was hesitating, the black panther suddenly rushed over from behind him, put its two front paws on the stone door, and threw its body down.

Before Apollo could stop it, the huge stone door that seemed to weigh over a thousand catties slowly opened without making any sound.And the scene inside the door was completely presented in front of the God of Light.

Even though he was already mentally prepared, knowing that there might be some unusual things happening in the Temple of Dionysus, he was really shocked at this moment.

The dome of the main hall is very high and the space is very large. Grape vines hang from the roof and are everywhere.The wine stream flows slowly through the ground of the main hall, and animal statues stand everywhere.

For a temple, these sights, while rare, are not surprising.What shocked Apollo was: the temple was full of people, lying on the ground, hanging on the statues, hanging on the pillars, and some people even made a hammock out of grape vines and tied it between two stone pillars. Lie on it comfortably.

Strangely enough, almost all of them were women.It seems that there has just been a carnival here. The women's clothes were torn and hung there in tatters. Many people were even naked. Apollo accidentally saw something he shouldn't see , He was so scared that he quickly looked away.Fortunately, all the women were in a comatose state, and a few of them were still muttering in their dreams, and they couldn't make out what they were saying, but the feeling of slurred speech didn't seem like they were simply falling asleep, but rather He looked like he was drunk and passed out.

The extremely rich aroma of wine wafted in the air, mixed with the disgusting smell of blood.Apollo looked at it for a long time before he found the corpses of several beasts in the corner—judging from the appearance of death, they were all torn apart alive by hands.The whole piece of animal skin was peeled off, and it was covered with blood on several women.

Apollo suddenly thought of the beasts he saw under the grape trellis just now.Is this what they are really used for?

He bent down and covered his stomach, and his stomach twitched and felt uncomfortable.

Who cares about Dionysus' secrets, this is simply a ghostly place.I don't want to be here.

He turned around hastily, wanting to rush out, only to find that the huge stone door was closing silently.
