[Greek mythology] The troubles of Adonis

This sudden attack was undoubtedly the punishment brought about by the collapse of the talks between the two parties.

Adonis pursed his lips in annoyance, and began to reflect on whether the wording just now was too arrogant, so that it became thick lamp oil poured on Mars.After dodging the first impact of the carriage, like a frightened refugee, he ran quickly to the depths of the branches and leaves, while looking for a shelter to crawl around.

And the plants, who were too scared to speak before, extended a helping hand to him who groveled for them just now without hesitation.The flowers on the passing road regained their spirits and released the rich aroma without hesitation. The pollen floating in the air deceived the black horse's sensitive sense of smell, and the dwarf trees and shrubs did not sit idle. Leaves, still green, were shed to conceal faint tracks left in occasional clods of mud, while spreading out laterally to block the view of malicious intruders.

The thorns that stand up are the heroic vanguards that block their way. Even if they are trampled to pieces, the green juice dripping from the broken limbs, like tears of sorrow, seeps into the soil drop by drop, and stubbornly pushes the thorns away. The solid horseshoes were pierced, and their speed was greatly reduced, and their steady steps became stuttering.

"Hurry up, Your Highness, come to me quickly." Pittosporum ball, which was once fascinated by the gloomy sense of oppression, took the lead in separating the dense branches to the plant god so that he could enter calmly, and whispered: " The seeds are not allowed to leave the safe and warm capsule until they have grown enough to withstand enough storms, so that even if I am dizzy and confused later, I will not abandon the fragrant and rare treasures."

"For your deep and sincere kindness, simple words can hardly express my gratitude," Adonis did not hide in, but softly refused: "However, such evasion is useless—good friends, if you are in charge of plants The gods are powerless to stop the tyrannical massacre, they can only witness your misfortune with your own eyes, and your lives are like burning short candles. Not to mention who else in the world will look up to me, even if you escape by chance, you will spend your whole life hugging you Ashamed and ashamed, to taste the saltiness of remorse."

Hai Tongqiu was so anxious that she wanted to jump up by the roots, and the introverted Jinye Privet then said: "Your Highness, I am never picky about the shelter where I live, and I am not afraid of destruction. A sincere heart is worth a lot of money." Thousands of love to repay, a devout and unswerving believer will only worship one god in his life, there are thousands of shadows, hypocritical lips can spit out easily betrayed lies, but flattery is completely incomparable with loyalty and chastity."

"The torso of the giant tree not only contains the annual rings that record history, but also the character of gratitude and repayment. Even the poisonous sun that beats you can make us suffer. Today includes the majesty of death of the Frost Sword and Snow Sword. Wanting to plunder you is a heart-piercing pain, if you stand by and watch, how can you survive in the world?"

Listening to the birds on the branch gossip, the pine tree, who has heard a lot of right and wrong, couldn't help but use those words that horrified Pluto to half scare and half persuade: "Your Highness, please don't experience the cruelty of His Majesty for yourself. Those who are hated by him will fall into a miserable life that is worse than death, and those who are loved by him will often die poorly and have a difficult life. Just as the indifferent darkness does not welcome warm bright lights, just as heavy iron chains are born to reject lightness Dancing feathers, the king who judges the dead and rules the underworld certainly doesn't like the beauty of embracing the source of life."

"If his power is not enough, he will not be able to suppress the clamor of evil souls, and he will not be able to get the punishment he deserves for blasphemy and rebellion." Adonis was not at the level of uneasiness, and tried to comfort them who were anxious: " The clean and pure paper like a dove can be painted with infinite possibilities. In addition to the theorem that never changes, the world also hides joyful miracles like pearled scallops. The small boat sails to a different route, and the broad The heart can allow them to sail together with the water. The bone-piercing winter seal ushers in the magnificent spring, but the dirty earth, stone and mud gently caress the hibernating seeds. The final destination of the eucalyptus. Although the leaves of the eucalyptus are slightly poisonous, they will cause the thirsty stomach of the traveler to colic and wither; but the roots can store water and be eaten. Most of those who match the unfortunate beginning are favored by carols. In the end, with the existence of Elysee, the carefree land of bliss, one can get a glimpse of the true projection of compassion in the decaying tomb."

"His Royal Highness - woo."

Only the native Pomegranate Ming blushed, looking left and right, obedient, and finally gathered up enough courage to say something nice for the noble and self-disciplined Majesty, but the next moment he was caught by the pinecone with hundreds of eyes embedded in his body. He stared back hard.

The anxious cuckoo's sharp beak pierced a still young mulberry, and the nectar it especially loved ran out, and the bright red color stained the proud feathers without knowing it; It is as obedient as a docile sheep, quietly lying aside and listening to the conversation, and has no intention of getting the prey that is close at hand; the poisonous snake with thick arms is coiled into a harmless group, and it gathers with its companions to be entangled in the overgrown On the mossy treetops, the wet kisses of snakes are ready to sear on the hateful disturber.

No matter how well-intentioned they are, Adonis' decision is as unshakable as his will. After all, the matter has come to this point, and he really doesn't want to give Hades a reason to anger these innocent and kind creatures.

His ears caught the approaching sound of horseshoes trampling on the ground, and he tried his best to calm down his rapid breathing, so that his existence would become invisible and insubstantial, completely blending into the surrounding environment, and maintaining a high level of vigilance, passing through the gaps between the blades of grass Watch for dangers not far away.

In the lush forest, no matter how superb the driving skills are, it is not as nimble as an archer who goes into battle lightly. Once again, the way was blocked by exaggerated branches. He took the reins of the black horses that were trying to catch up, and told them to be quiet.

Although he is in charge of the underworld, once he is in the forest created by the plant god, he will be subject to a lot of restrictions even if he has monstrous divine power-if he can easily destroy the territory as usual, the low-level gods will lose. the meaning of existence.

In the vast sea of ​​trees, he walked around for a while with calm eyes, and after finding nothing, he stepped directly off the poplar tree stalks surrounded by black mist that symbolized death and fear.

Under the effect of the invisibility helmet, what the plant god glimpsed was...

A giant harpoon suspended in the air.

Adonis was slightly stunned. He thought that the weapon driven by Pluto would be a more powerful and domineering weapon, but unexpectedly it was so ordinary.It's okay to look at it alone, but if you wield it boldly... I'm afraid it will be a little unsightly.

It was held and gently pointed forward, and soon, centered on the position where it was suspended out of nowhere, the vortex created by the radiated dark power did not show any pity, and all the weeping flowers and plants were involved.The original glamorous and radiant surface is coated with a layer of gray and haze-like death, and the natural flow of life is forcibly stopped.

Adonis saw at a glance that Pluto didn't mean to kill them. He probably thought they were too noisy and obstructive, and he was likely to cover him, an intruder, so that they couldn't make a sound and move for a short time.

Even if there is a world of difference between abilities, Adonis, who is also a protoss, will still not be disturbed by this level of divine power released by the other party.Seeing that he was moving freely, he couldn't help but feel relieved. He knew that all he had to think about now was how to try to escape from the omnipotent Pluto in the underworld.

But in this way, his position will be exposed.

Adonis stood on a thick branch, overlooking the scene not far away, with a small plan in his hands, quietly waiting for the opportunity to come.He dismissed the idea of ​​catching it with nothing - ants are greedy for life, even if they still can't escape the fate of being imprisoned in Tartarus, they still have to fight hard before the darkness swallows them.

The toes lightly touched the blades of grass, and there was not even a trace of footprints left on the moist and soft soil.The slender waist seems to be flexible without bones. After bending to an unbelievable extent, he slantly stepped onto the thick tree trunk, inhaled slowly, and then used the momentum of the recoil, as light as wings growing on his back Leap up smoothly.

At the moment of hesitation in the air, Adonis completed the pre-action of nocking the arrow and aiming the bow in one go. The sharp arrows made of mistletoe blessed by the plant god seem to symbolize the indomitable will of the owner, and they hit the arrows with precision comparable to that of Artemis, who also lives in the woods away from the noise and is proficient in hunting. The front legs of the leading black horse.

The sharp pain of the arrow penetrating into the flesh made it roar in pain, and the only two remaining intact legs could no longer support the strong body, and collapsed.

Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of stumbling the galloping horse to escape along the path spreading out from the green field, but what Adonis never expected was that an arrow was disturbed by his nervously trembling little finger just now. According to the expected trajectory, there was only a "clang" sound of metal collision, and the invisibility helmet Xuxu was wearing was knocked down.

——then revealed the true face of Pluto.

Adonis knew something was wrong.

The facial features are not as ugly and fierce as the rumors spread by evil-minded enemies, but have the inherent handsome, handsome, noble and elegant characteristics of Olympian gods, but shrouded in awe-inspiring and inapproachable indifference, the dark green There are no stars and no moon in the eyes, like a pool of deep silence and unfathomable water, without any appreciation and charm, and strangely, there is no disgust or hostility.

The resolute and profound outline is as cold as a piece of lead, and will not be softened by bloody tears and cries.

Hades said calmly: "Come here."

Adonis hesitated for a moment, then put down the arrow, bowed down and bowed down: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

He wanted to escape without hurting the opponent's face before, because he wanted to gamble that Hades would not care about this innocuous little character like him, but he had absolutely no intention of really annoying the opponent.

Otherwise, all the creatures in the green forest will suffer together—whether they will be temporarily frozen or sleep forever is only at the discretion of Pluto.

Hades nodded slightly, expressing that he was not irritated by such a small offense, and he didn't even put on the invisibility helmet again, and stared at the surface calmly with green eyes that could not see any emotions, but in fact he was extremely disturbed Adonis.

"It's okay this time." It might be impossible to run again.

Adonis' eyes flickered indifferently.He naturally heard the implication, and without Pluto repeating the order again, he immediately withdrew his will to fight to the death, and honestly caught him without a fight—at least on the surface, it was true.

With the departure of Pluto, the divine power that sealed them gradually disappeared.The birds who have returned to freedom are heartbroken, the animals living in the forest are limp and lose their energy, and they are dejected after exhaling all the fragrant flowers, the giant trees and shrubs are desperate, and the shadows of the whirling leaves seem to be silent Weeping also seemed to be devoutly praying for his safe return.

Seeing the handsome and gentle deity stepping into the black carriage without a horse, Ming Pomegranate's heart was completely happy, fearing that other plants would find out, it quickly straightened the crooked green hat on its head , so that the brim of the hat hides the true pleasing mood.

His Majesty will surely like him.It thought happily, leaving aside the slight loneliness, it was not without regrets——

It would be great if Mint Grass Mingta could see this scene with her own eyes, hahaha, she is definitely overwhelmed with jealousy and faints.
