Do not wake up the gods of the abyss [Greek mythology]

In the Temple of Thunder where the silver snake dances wildly, God King Zeus has just sent away his messenger Hermes.Hermes returned from the sea realm and failed to bring him good news.

Because of the destructive power of Tartarus, Zeus suffered pain like gouging out a bone.He ordered people to summon Apollo, trying to suppress him with the authority of God the Father, forcing him to pick another water rose for himself.However, his emissary came back and stood by Apollo's side: "The God of Light entertained the Abyss God on behalf of the God Realm, but you misunderstood him. He was very sad, and now he went to the Human Realm to relax."

When Zeus heard this, he was furious.

Good Apollo!

She clearly didn't want to care about him, and she pretended to be wronged!

Zeus was already seriously injured, and he was so angry that his chest hurt so much that he almost fainted in front of the messenger.After finally maintaining the dignity of the god king, he hurriedly summoned Hermes and asked him to go to the sea realm and ask for a water rose from Poseidon who is in charge of the sea realm.

Poseidon is the elder brother of Zeus and the emperor of the sea realm.He sits on a huge ocean and has a rich storehouse beyond the imagination of the gods. Even Zeus felt jealous when he saw it.Although the water rose is a rare medicinal material, it grows by the sea, and Poseidon has kept a few flowers there.

Zeus thought that Poseidon would have to give him one because of his god-king authority, no? Poseidon replied, "Water roses are not very useful. I usually live in seclusion and use If I don’t have this medicinal material, I didn’t solicit it from the gods of the sea realm. Although I don’t know why the omniscient and omnipotent god king needs such medicinal materials, but if the god king needs it, I would like to solicit it from the gods of the sea realm, presumably in the name of the god king? Make this small request, and the gods will respond positively."

Hermes taught Zeus the words, and Zeus blushed instantly.Poseidon's words were flattering him in the open, but ridiculing him in the dark, and making his embarrassment public. How could Zeus, who has always been proud, bear it?

Zeus was burning with anger, but his voice was so cold that it was icy cold: "Hermes, you answer him for me, answer mine? Good brother Poseidon: I thank him for his good intentions, but I didn't expect Neptune Is the name of the treasure house true? There is not even a water rose. I wanted to give one as a gift, but it seems that I can only exchange it for something else."

Hermes has always admired Zeus for this - he is really thick-skinned.As long as he sticks to a statement, no matter how absurd that statement is, he will firmly believe that it is true.Total self-deception.

Hermes was not interested in piercing Zeus, so he just shrugged and left the Temple of Thunder on his flying shoes.To save face for Zeus? With these words, he had to go back and forth to the God Realm and Sea Realm again.

When Hermes left, the thunderclouds outside the Temple of Thunder became thicker.The black? Clouds seemed to be able to drip water, and lightning and thunder flashed among the dark clouds.Zeus let go, and the armrest of the golden chair that he was holding tightly to had been crushed, turning into dust and dissipating in the air.

He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a name, as if he wanted to tear people apart with his sharp teeth: "Poseidon! Poseidon!"

Suddenly, a cold female voice sounded, with aloofness and arrogance: "Incompetent gods can only bark like wild dogs in an empty palace. Zeus, if you can only do this, don't you deserve to be the gods?" King of!"

These words are extremely serious, enough to punish one's heart?!

Zeus was startled and angry, looked around, and was about to scold loudly, when he saw a graceful figure appearing in front of him, it was Gaia, the goddess of the earth.

Zeus was stunned for a moment, put away his anger, and showed rare humility: "Great Mother, thank you for your teaching." He was able to secure his position as the king of gods by relying on the art of flattery, and it was from Tartarus. Hitting a wall, he restrained his arrogant temperament again, and lowered his proud head at this time, without feeling ashamed at all.

While speaking, Zeus gave up the seat of God, and invited Gaia to take the seat.Neither did Gaia? Rejected, sat down on Zeus's golden chair, showed a proud attitude of the first generation of gods, and pointed to Jiangshan: "Zeus, you must know that now you are the king of the gods, leading the gods, Poseidon, as your elder brother, can only submit to you, so he will naturally be a little dissatisfied. It is understandable that he cooperates with you in major matters, but has a little thought in small matters."

Zeus stood aside, nodded in agreement, but thought in his heart: If you have tried your best on a little thing, you can't count on a big one!Where did Gaia say that?I'm afraid she can't forgive easily!

According to Gaia's consistent style, she doesn't know how to forgive? God, these words are just foreshadowing, in order to divert hatred: "You have to figure out who brought you into such a mess? Look for yours. "Enemies instead of turning potential allies into enemies!"

Zeus was suddenly enlightened, but he thought in his heart, which enemy did Gaia want him to identify?Abyss God Tartarus?

He thought about something in his heart, but he was ashamed: "Although I am the king of the gods, I don't dare to face the edge of 'that'." Gaia actually didn't dare, but He sneered and said, "You said no? Dare, from now on you don't have to mention the word brave again!"

Zeus was dissatisfied with Gaia's attitude, but because he had plans, he still held back and said: "I have been beaten and injured twice by 'that', and I am still suffering from illness. Kind? Mother Goddess , please have mercy on your descendants and bless me."

Gaia also showed a bit, isn't it? Hurry up, she hasn't given Zeus an order, but Zeus has already put his mind on her.But thinking of her own plan, she endured it, and said: "You are my most proud descendant, so I will protect you naturally. Not to mention Tartarus, I came to you today because of you My dear son, the great Apollo of Light."

Gaia sighed, she shouldn't have said too much, but if she said too much, Zeus would plot against her.She went straight to the point, told the story of Delphi, and put forward her own request: "I want you to punish his arrogance, so that he will never dare to act rashly again!"

Zeus understood, and Gaia said that he must identify the enemy, but in fact he didn't dare to directly conflict with the god of the abyss, so he could only deal with Apollo.

In order to get the benefits promised by Gaia, and out of his belief in the authority of his father God, Zeus agreed with all his heart: "Great Mother God, just leave this matter to me, and you will be satisfied!"

Gaia, however, was well aware of his eloquence? He looked at him coldly: "Give the order now."

Her tone made Zeus feel very uncomfortable, but his divine power was not as good as hers, so he could only admit cowardice.He summoned the messenger to make Apollo's "crime" public: "Apollo, the god of light, despised Gaia, the earth mother, trespassed on the Delphi shrine, and sent him to Thessaly to graze for King Admetus until Admetus Metos is dead!"

The envoy led the order to convey the order of the god king Zeus to the flowers, plants and trees. The wind, thunder, rain and lightning soon made the whole God Realm know the news.

Gaia was satisfied, and she endured the conflict of divine power in her body, and bestowed a divine power of life on Zeus, which healed the power of destruction in his body.

Zeus was also satisfied, and he regained his former vigor, but he forgot that the goddess of the earth was never a goddess who endured pain by herself and released others. The divine power is mixed with the "underworld fire" that can destroy the body, and "all kinds of chaotic" divine powers that Tartarus grabbed from the sky and the earth.

Zeus did all the tricks, but he didn't expect that what Gaia gave him was actually a sugar-coated poison.He ate it happily, and dealt with Artemis who came to defend Apollo with a sullen face, and waited for Apollo's return with peace of mind.

From Apollo's respect in the past, it is not difficult for him to see the obedience of his good son. Presumably the mild-tempered God of Light can understand his approach.It was a serious crime for him to trespass on the Delphi oracle and anger Goddess Gaia, but he was punished to graze his illegitimate son.

On the other side, Tartarus and Apollo were sitting outside the terrifying snake cave, grilling snake meat over a fire.

The fire snake licked the skinned snake meat, making the sound of sizzling water. The snake meat was tender and only needed to be roasted for a while before it could be eaten. Tartarus was very satisfied.

Another string of snake meat was eaten, and Tartarus had already eaten something.He pointed to the snake skin on the ground, and said in a calm tone: "This kind of snake is delicious, catch a few more."

Apollo promised him that he would roast a lot of snake meat for him, and let him eat his fill. Naturally, he would not break the contract, so he readily agreed: "You wait for me here, and I will catch a few more snakes."

Tartarus nodded, didn't he? Forgot to tell him: "It should be thicker, with more meat."

Apollo was still funny, but Tartarus was puzzled, blinked, and urged: "Go."

When Apollo came back after catching a few snakes, he saw Tartarus sitting on the grass, frowning slightly, showing a little impatient expression.

"What's the matter, Tal?" Apollo asked.

Tartarus has always been expressionless, and the impatience that can be seen on his face shows that something is bothering him.Apollo is willing to solve his problems for him.

Hearing this, Tartarus shifted his eyes lightly and landed on Apollo's hand.He stared at Apollo's prey for a long time, then turned his head to look at the jumping flames, and made up his mind: "I don't want to eat, I'm full."

Apollo laughed, saying yes, but thinking in his heart: How can the gods be full?Tal lives too much like a human!

Straightforward, yet cute.

The word "cute" flashed across Apollo's heart, like a meteor falling, although the speed was fast, the shock was not small.In his mind, the lake rippled, and he couldn't help being lost in thought.

His emotions were complicated and difficult to distinguish, when he suddenly heard Tartarus call him: "Apollo."

"Well, I'm here." Apollo subconsciously agreed, but his heart beat faster, as if he was caught doing something bad. For him who has always been dignified, it was a novel experience.

Tartarus was still sitting on the ground with his face raised.Apollo looked at him carefully, only to see that his cheeks were a little pink, as if the sun was shining on the white snow, and his eyes were rarely confused.

Apollo's heart beat faster, like a muse beating a drum, like Aphrodite shaking her golden girdle with bells.

The voice was not very regular, but very moving.

Apollo was in a trance again, but Tartarus didn't realize it.He stretched out his hand and asked Apollo, "Here, it's bulging. How can I digest it?"

Apollo looked down and saw that Tartarus was pointing at his groin, and fireworks exploded in his usually calm and wise mind.

Only then did Apollo realize that Tartarus wasn't fed up, but was hooked by the snake meat with some indescribable desire...
