[Greek mythology] The troubles of Adonis

The three black horses, who had a full meal but paid the price of many wounds caused by vicious plants, pretended to be serious and brisk, while sneaking a few glances back, looking at the fierce boss who made them deflated low-level god.

Adonis kept his eyes fixed, like a beautiful and exquisite puppet, sitting on the carriage without saying a word, at a loss for the unknown future.

The only thing is clear - Pluto didn't say how to deal with him for a moment, so he couldn't leave the side of the other party without authorization for a moment.

Here he lives like a year, while there Orpheus is doing well.

A few days ago, he and his beloved wife Eurydice reunited on the bank of the Xiaoshu River after a long absence. Amid unbelievable tears and cries, they hugged and kissed each other warmly and lingeringly.

Just like the widowed Gallic hound finally found his beloved companion, and like finding the dodder weed we depend on, the semicircle that lost its soul due to the loss of essence was added an arc by the merciful heaven, at this moment, even if the world falls apart The unbreakable bond between them, who had suffered so much from life and death, could no longer be torn apart.

Immersed in dream-like happiness, this talented bard waited until the tide of blood gradually faded from his brain, and he, who was naked and embraced his beloved wife quietly among the dense golden spikes, finally remembered the moment Many problems need to be faced.

"My love," without waiting for him to sort out his thoughts, Eurydice's eyelids trembled, and he kept kissing her husband's familiar thick shoulders, smelling the breath that reassured her, but her mouth was full of coquettish complaints: "Since you enjoy everything The beloved poet and musician should be walking leisurely in the world, sitting on the laurel crown woven by fairy music, wearing the glory bestowed by musical notes, so that he can make love with his new love, why should he be so foolish to give up his life and plunge into the abyss of misfortune The fangs of a hungry wolf?"

"A walking godless skeleton is only snorted by the proud lyre. How does the empty heart play a tear-jerking movement. The stripped and destroyed soul is as dry as an abandoned stub, and can no longer taste the joy of being embraced."

"Now you are a soul, and I am a soul. It's just an ordinary reunion in the final destination of mortals." Orpheus gently helped her dress, resting her forehead, and met the tear-filled eyes , Singing: "How can there be perfection in the world? Although the body is gone, love will last forever. It is the immortal yearning that fills the flesh and blood, the torch of marriage that warms the cold bones, and your reliance and loyalty to me wholeheartedly. I will not be reduced to a lowly, incompetent weed."

weed:"……"

Eurydice couldn't bear it anymore: "Oh Orpheus..."

The clothes they had just put on were roughly untied by the passionate fingers, and the loving couple quickly turned upside down again, leaving only the weeds that dozed inexplicably and were labeled as 'humble and incompetent', half dead with anger.

"This stupid man!" he said indignantly, rushing to the golden spikes who laughed impiously: "uninvited tourists, chattering gadflies, even the most stinky cow dung It is a thousand times better than this hateful person with rhetoric and clichés. The flamboyant dandy who clearly came here under the shadow of His Highness, has nothing but a good tongue, and brazenly regards it as useless The merits of love. There are many things that can be done and should be done, but they are addicted to physical enjoyment all day long, and they seem to have a lot of leisure. Under the situation of dark clouds, rational people will not waste time to indulge in pleasure , and will not be so short-sighted that you can't see the distance, let alone blindly base your own praise and flattery on belittling others."

Jin Suihua nodded again and again, with a look of deep approval.

Although they were praised by Orpheus before they came here because of their great achievements, this group of creatures from the underworld who were so arrogant that they were almost defiant didn't appreciate it at all, relying on the fact that only His Royal Highness could understand their words , when they were talking about each other, they sneered at each other, not only slandered Eurydice's lips as "glorious as lard jelly that fell into the blood basin", but also compared the round breasts to "a traveler hanging at the waist Even Orpheus could not escape, and was ridiculed, "Did he launch the attack with that pitifully small bamboo stalk?" "The canoe sailed into the vast ocean."

The suffering couple didn't know anything about it. After the passionate London, the shy red returned to Eurydice's sweaty neck.She brushed up her long, curly hair like seaweed, and sat up with her husband. While immersed in the joy of snuggling, she tenderly watched the golden spikes dancing slowly in the breeze, and this obscure gray that symbolized death and silence was also dyed. Peace: "Look, lazy singers, how peaceful and beautiful they are, they seem to be looking forward to the face of love. Why don't you use a melodious melody that can move plants, trees and stones to accompany a song, and sing praises for you and me? Reunited with them who have paid a lot, don't waste the precious poetry?"

The golden spikes shuddered collectively.

Orpheus kissed her ear, and helped her to stand up: "There is no need to add splendor to the most beautiful, no need to compose music for the most virtue, no need to paint clothes for the most pure. Clothes that are in good condition do not need to be repaired." Repairing and repairing, the engraved sentences and engravings can't be painted in the vastness of the universe. If we really want to talk about the gods who wear beauty and honor, there is only Hoduo, who is admired by green creatures and is as beautiful as the outside, but never complacent. Nice is nature's lifetime masterpiece."

The golden spikes finally recovered from the overwhelming nausea, and just in time to hear the last sentence, they were really relieved and nodded secretly.

Eurydice was curious about this strange name and her husband's respectful attitude. She knew that he served Dionysus, the god of wine and feasting, so she preconceived and mistook him for Thor. Under the shade of Dionysus, he immediately raised his head and repeated: "Adonis?"

"A loyal friend is an enviable and precious asset. Whenever a crisis is imminent, he will always help." Orpheus smiled brightly, and put his arms around her waist: "I would like to tell you the details on the way, but now It is time to depart. Go and see His Majesty the majesty who rules this place, and beg him to let us return to the world."

The beloved descendants of the Muse are naturally good at embellishing stories. During the short journey, Orpheus put aside his worries about Adonis for the time being, and described this experience vividly and wittily. The unhappy beloved wife burst into laughter.

Walking on the vast and dead land of the underworld without alternation of light and dark, they passed by many invisible ghosts with empty eyes. a member.

Miraculously, they were not hindered by any plants along the way: the vitex stretched up gracefully like a human being, letting the two men in ragged clothes go; The soles of their feet trampled on them; the strange willows by the river retracted their weeping hair so as not to block their way...

Eurydice walked with a slight limp, because her death was caused by the deep marks carved by the poisoned fangs on her legs. After seeing this scene with her own eyes, she blinked in surprise and sighed: "Oh My God, this is just... just unbelievable."

Orpheus, after being surprised at the beginning, instantly understood whose order could have such a miraculous effect, making the indifferent and arrogant plants obey with all their hearts, except for the one whose expression was indifferent, but whose breath was more fragrant than roses. In addition to the more pleasant plant demeanor, there will never be such a delicate, soft, sincere and kind person: "This must be the grace of His Royal Highness Adonis. His instructions made the followers in green coats bow to their hearts, and the birds and animals also obeyed." Submissive. This is his grace, and his shining virtue."

He didn't know that this was just a beautiful misunderstanding, how could the plant god see clearly the mystery of the future under the veil of mystery even if he couldn't take care of himself.The reason why they would pinch their noses and tacitly let them go was mainly to send them to get the result quickly and stay away from this place, so as not to bother the handsome and amiable Adonis unwisely.

The grateful couple continued to walk, the musician skillfully stroked the delicate lyre, and the mournful melody echoed in the endless chaos, making the bewildered and kind people recall all the past lives, their hearts felt like a knife was twisted, and their tears fell like rain; The sinner who did all kinds of crimes in his life felt sad and was eaten away by regret; the Ningfu holding the reed was ashamed and even intoxicated by it, so she retreated silently and did not come to stop her.

Surrounded by the truth field of judgment without any danger, there are two roads before them, one leads to the terrible abyss, and the other leads to the blissful place far away from sorrow, but the choice they make lies in the middle. The majestic hall is the residence of Hades, which has remained unchanged for thousands of years.

"Your Majesty who rules the kingdom of death, please forgive our recklessness—"

Orpheus knelt down with the trembling Eurydice, still holding his cherished qin in his hand, and was hesitating whether to use the harmony of music to win sympathy when he appealed, a familiar feeling The faint fragrance was as vivid and clear as a ball of white flakes falling into thick ink, penetrating into his nasal cavity, a thought flashed in his mind, and he slowly raised his head.

"Ah...ah..." Adonis!

The long speech that was about to be exported came to an abrupt end just after it started.Orpheus opened his mouth in disbelief. He never dreamed that after going through all kinds of obstacles and painstakingly obtaining permission to meet the Lord of Hades, he would see the brilliance of his traveling companion beside the luxurious throne. face!

Different from the emotional agitation of the musicians, Adonis always lowered his eyebrows, acting as if he had never met him before.

Hades glanced sideways indiscriminately, quickly glanced at the plant god who was standing with familiar hands, and then turned his calm but oppressive gaze back to Orpheus.The latter was agitated, hurriedly cleared up the emotions that had been shocked, and no longer cared about how Adonis became the subordinate god of Pluto, seized this rare opportunity to appeal and continued: "The reason why we took the liberty to come here , not intentionally disturbing the rest of the dead, nor disrupting the strict order, but seeking a gift with little hope. The vibrant earth is only a residence for a short stay, and the boundless underworld is the final destination of habitat. It is a reward for goodness , a place of fair trial where evil is punished, we respect it and will never run away from it.”

"Yet poor Eurydice and I, who had been favored by Venus, sparked love, and were content to be conquered by love, but she was snatched away by fangs in her sweet youth. Breathing, returning to the underworld early. I follow her step to come here, just want to know what fate she deserved; Love; she is pious and pure, she is devoted to her deeds, she is respectful to the gods she believes in, and she offers tribute on time; Your Majesty, if her premature death is the word of Goddess of fate, then is my fragile love also cursed with evil? ?”

This impassioned and impassioned courage failed to change the expression of the listener. Just as Orpheus was about to leave with his wife who was about to collapse on the ground in despair, Emperor Hades closed his eyes uninterestedly. Closing his eyes, he actually agreed: "Yes."

This person's ability is mediocre, his tongue is [-]% following the flashy Olympus, and his appearance is not pleasing to the eye...

It is completely useless to keep.
