Death knocked on the gate of hell

Overnight, Venus made two new friends, Hermes and Dionysus.

They were also very kind to him in the past, but because the whole holy mountain was very kind to Venus, there was no distinction between closeness and distance.Except for Ares and Hephaestus who often come to him to play, Venus treats other gods equally.

But now, he will also go to play with Hermes and Dionysus.

The conversation last night really collapsed Venus' world view.In his impression, there are always songs and dances on the holy mountain, laughter and laughter, and everyone lives in harmony.The news from Hermes and Dionysus completely overturned his cognition.

It turns out that there is also an undercurrent surging among the gods of the holy mountain. You will live and die, and you will have a deep hatred across the sea of ​​blood.

Ares and Hephaestus never mentioned this to him.Hera loves the promising son of Ares very much. Of course Ares would not speak ill of his mother.Hephaestus was unwilling to let the pure and flawless Venus be infected with the filth among the gods, and he would not tell him these negative news.Out of awe of Hera, the other gods, they dare not gossip behind their backs.

Only Hermes, as the messenger of Zeus, is not afraid of the power of the queen Hera.Dionysus and Hera had a mother-killing feud, hated Hera, felt that the gods on Mount Olympus were sanctimonious, and had no scruples about talking about the secrets on Mount Olympus.He and Hermes have a good relationship, so they drank together last night and taunted Hera, which was heard by Venus.

Venus had a rose garden, Dionysus had a whole vineyard.Dionysus grew up in the mountains and forests when he was young. He acted romantically and uninhibitedly. With a deep and passionate face coupled with a lazy and melancholy temperament, he was a very unique handsome man on the holy mountain.

Venus loves to go to Dionysus to hear stories that no one else can hear.Although the three views would be shattered every time, in the end it was nothing to break.

Dionysus told him that the Titan god Prometheus once stole fire for the poor human beings and brought hope to human beings, but because of this he offended Zeus, was chained on the Caucasus cliff, and his liver was eaten by vultures every day .It was Hephaestus, the god of fire, who was ordered to take charge of this matter, although he is sad and guilty about it to this day.

Venus couldn't understand: shouldn't gods protect human beings?Why did His Majesty the God King punish Prometheus, who brought light to mankind in the dark?And use such cruel methods.

Venus originally thought that Zeus was just a chaotic private life, but he was still a very wise god-king in politics.This broke his cognition.

Dionysus also told him that after Zeus molested Callisto, the maid of Artemis, one of the three virgin goddesses, the angry moon god drove the maid out with random arrows.

Venus was shocked: what's wrong with a forced maid? ? ?Why didn't the moon god shoot Zeus with one arrow? !

Eros has already had a treasonous idea.

Dionysus also told him that Ares, the god of war, and Athena, the goddess of wisdom, were immortal enemies. The two gods fought many times, and Ares, the god of war, lost.

Venus, who always thought that the brothers and sisters of the big Olympus family are very harmonious, and the God of War is invincible all over the world: ...

Well, he has nothing to say.

Tired, let this world be destroyed.

Every time Venus goes to the Temple of Wine, ten points will be added to the blackening value after coming out.He could no longer see everything with innocent eyes.

The only good thing is that the grapes grown by Dionysus are delicious.

Every time Venus went to the Temple of Wine, Dionysus would invite him to eat grapes and drink grape juice, but he was not allowed to drink a little wine, and he had to wait until he was an adult before he could drink.

Venus went to complain to Hermes, complaining that Dionysus was too strict.Hermes comforted him: "Probably because he had a miserable childhood, and he has a particularly strong love for cubs."

Venus showed a surprised look.

Hermes looked at him with a smile: "Venus, not everyone is like you, born to be cared for in the holy mountain."

Hermes himself is the illegitimate son of Zeus. He grew up with his mother in a cave. Later, he came to the Holy Mountain with his own ability and had a place on the Holy Mountain.Dionysus was even worse than him. He was chased and killed by Hera throughout his childhood, and lived a miserable life. After being found by Hermes and brought back to the holy mountain, he was helpless against the powerful enemy Hera. This is also the reason why the God of Dionysus is drunk and depressed all day long.

Even though he already knew that the God of Olympus was not as pure and kind as he imagined, Venus was still sympathetic and angry: "How can the Queen of God do such a cruel thing to a child?"

Hermes said: "She can kill her own children, so how can she be soft-hearted to other people's children?"

Venus froze: "What?"

Hermes raised his eyebrows: "Do you know how Hephaestus' legs are lame?"

Venus opened his eyes wide: "Isn't it natural?"

"You have such a good relationship with Hephaestus, that guy didn't tell you about it." Hermes was also surprised, "His appearance is natural, but his body was healthy when he was born, and Hera couldn't accept it." Her son was so ugly that Hephaestus was crippled by throwing him to the foot of the mountain."

Venus trembled with anger: "It's unreasonable, it's too much!"

"Calm down." Hermes poured him a glass of water and asked with great interest, "Do you care about Hephaestus?"

"Of course, he is my best friend." Venus was filled with righteous indignation.

"What about Ares?" Hermes continued to ask calmly.

Venus took a sip of water to keep himself from getting too angry: "I treat him as my brother."

Hermes felt relieved, which meant that he still had a chance.

Who doesn't covet the beauty of the god of Olympus?Hermes is certainly no exception.

Venus was full of anger, rushing to the Temple of Fire in a hurry, slowed down halfway, and calmed down.

What would he say to Hephaestus now?Sympathize with his misery, say "Hey, I didn't know your leg was crippled by your mother, you are so pitiful", and then comfort him?

Even if Venus's current EQ is not as smooth as Hermes', it is not possible to do such a miracle.

Hephaestus didn't tell him about it, because he didn't want to mention the sad thing, and didn't want to show off his pity in front of him, so why did he have to uncover the scar?

But he is so angry! ! !

If not Hephaestus, who else could he talk to?Ares?No, this is also a dodgy one.Venus also knew that because of Hera's eccentricity, the relationship between Ares and Hephaestus was not good.

Under the influence of Dionysus, Venus now looks at all the gods on the holy mountain and feels that they are covered with a layer of hypocrisy.

Venus, who was becoming more and more sensitive, even noticed that Dionysus had bad intentions, but after all, he was still underage, and his thoughts were not that far-reaching, so he could only comfort himself by thinking too much.

When the adult Venus looked back, he could see through the tricks of Dionysus at a glance-Dionysus told him these things, making Venus full of defenses against other gods, and in the end the most trusted one was not only Dionysus. Is Onissus gone?

There are a group of wolves, tigers and leopards on this mountain.

Right now, Venus is extremely depressed and can't find a god to talk to, but he still has one candidate.

Venus turned and went to the river.

He's looking for Adonis.

If there is anyone else who is clean and flawless in his mind, it is only Adonis outside the holy mountain.

On the island of Cyprus, Venus blew the conch and waited with great anticipation for the appearance of Adonis.

Not long after, Adonis with dazzling blond hair, wearing a hunting suit, and a warm smile appeared in front of him.

"Long time no see." Adonis smiled softly, "Do you still want to hunt today?"

Venus couldn't be happy when he saw Adonis because he had too much backlog in his mind during this time: "No, I'm not in the mood to hunt today."

Seeing his sullen look, Adonis asked with concern: "What's the matter? Are you in a bad mood? Then let's have a chat."

Venus looked around, although there was no one, but the broad daylight environment could not give him a sense of security to open his heart.

Fortunately, Adonis was very understanding, and he quickly said: "My house is nearby, why don't you go back to my house and drink some water first?"

Only then did Venus cheer up: "Okay."

Speaking of which, they used to walk and hunt on the beach, in the valley and in the woods, and they had never visited Adonis's house.

They soon came to Adonis' home, which turned out to be a tree house in the forest.A tree is as thick as ten people forming a circle with their arms outstretched.The roof is covered with vines and flowers, and a window is opened. A ladder hangs from a tree, and you can climb up to the house.

Adonis lived here, usually by hunting for a living.

Venus climbed the ladder into the house, her eyes widened: "Wow, so cool. Why didn't you bring me to your house earlier?"

Of course, the cabin is not as luxurious and comfortable as the palace of Venus, but it is clean and tidy, warmly furnished and full of poetic charm.In the woods, there is no one to disturb, and the air is naturally fresh, like coming from a mythical world to a fairy tale world in an instant.

Here is very close to the sea, no wonder Adonis can hear it every time the conch is blown.

Adonis said embarrassingly: "This place is too simple, it must not be comparable to your temple, I am sorry to let you see it."

"This is so interesting, I want to own such a house in my dreams!" Venus excitedly said.

Adonis smiled slightly: "Then it's yours now."

"How can I really want your house, just allow me to come and play often in the future." Venus lay by the window, poked her head out, and saw the lush forest and small animals in the forest.He took a deep breath of fresh air: "It's much better here than on the holy mountain, but won't you be lonely if you stay here alone?"

Adonis replied, "I know you will come to me, so I don't feel alone."

Full level love story.At least Venus was delighted to hear that.

He turned around and sat down on the chair: "It's good if there are few people, the air is free and fresh. There are so many gods on the holy mountain, but I feel a little out of breath."

Adonis's smile faded suddenly, and an imperceptible chill flashed across his eyes: "Is anyone bullying you?"

He noticed the change in Venus this time, which was very different from before, and he was no longer so innocent and carefree.

"No, they all treated me very well." Venus sighed, "It's just that I know a lot of things, and the discovery may not be as good as I imagined."

Adonis made a listening posture: "Can you talk to me?"

Venus asked without answering: "Adonis, will humans also fight?"

Adonis understood instantly.Venus used the word "also" to indicate that he discovered that the gods on Mount Olympus were fighting openly and secretly.

This is no longer a new thing, the gods have been at odds for a long time, but they may not show it too much in front of Venus.Now that Venus knows, the young heart will naturally be hurt.

"Of course people will fight, and where there are people, there will be conflicts and quarrels." Adonis replied.

"Why? Can't everyone get along with each other in peace?" Venus's emerald green eyes showed confusion, "Is it the goddess of strife who provoked the trouble?"

Eris, the goddess of strife and discord, is keen to provoke troubles, lest the world will not be chaotic, and she is the cause of many disputes.

"The Goddess of Discord may be the direct cause, but it is not the root cause." Adonis said, "Even if there is no Goddess of Discord in the world, people will continue to have disputes."

Venus was even more confused.

Adonis answered patiently: "Because the source of conflict is not the goddess of strife, but human nature."

"There are seven great demons in the Hebrew pantheon next door to us, corresponding to the seven original sins. Lucifer's arrogance, Leviathan's jealousy, Belial's laziness, Samuel's anger, Mammon's greed, Beelze The gluttony of divination, the lust of Asmodeus. And the seven cases of arrogance, jealousy, laziness, anger, greed, gluttony, and lust are the original sins of human nature. Not only apply to them, but also to the whole world." Adonis said, "As long as there are evil thoughts in human nature, there will be disputes in the world no matter what, all the time. If human nature only has good thoughts, then even if a hundred more goddesses of dispute are born, they will not be able to provoke a single dispute. She is just using the weakness of human nature to provoke trouble."

Venus looked adoring: "Adonis, how do you know so much? You even know about the Hebrew gods!"

Adonis remained calm: "I was always looking for something to do alone in the forest, so I read a lot of foreign books."

He used to have nothing to do at the bottom of the sea, learned a few foreign languages, and learned about the gods from all over the world. He was much more diligent and hardworking than Zeus who was looking for a lover and having children all day long.

Venus has nothing but admiration.In addition to being a hunting expert, Adonis also has a learned label in his heart.

"But these are all human beings, and there are inherently bad demons." Venus didn't know as much about the Hebrew pantheon as Adonis, and only heard it occasionally, "The angels there seem to be born to symbolize Beautiful qualities. Why do our gods also have human weaknesses?"

Adonis said, "Divinity is humanity."

Venus was taken aback.

Adonis: "I have read many books about the world's major gods. In the East, there are indeed immortals with pure six senses, and there is no such thing as the seven emotions and six desires. But they still have legends about the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl and the Seven Fairies descending to earth. It can be seen that the gods cannot really have the six senses pure .There are many older stories, but their classical Chinese is too difficult for me to read."

Venus: "..." The scholar label just affixed is crumbling.

Adonis looked at him: "You said that angels in the Hebrew pantheon are born to symbolize beauty, but do you know that Lucifer, the darkest and arrogant demon in hell, is the fallen angel Lucifer, the brightest and most holy? "

Venus really didn't know.

"Therefore no existence is absolutely positive, and a difference in thought may produce negative. Even if the goddess of justice always stands on the side of justice, the other side of the balance will resent her injustice." Adonis said, " The gods created human beings, where does the humanity of human beings come from? Isn’t it the divinity of the gods. It’s normal for the gods to fight each other, and every god you see may not see all of him.”

Venus heard one head and two big: "I don't care, anyway, Adonis is the kindest and most beautiful in my heart!"

"No, Venus, even I don't only have a gentle and beautiful side." Adonis lowered his eyes to cover up the blue light flowing in his eyes, and his voice gradually deepened, "If one day, you find my dark and cruel side, Will you accept me?"

Venus couldn't understand this sentence, he asked cautiously: "Will you hurt me?"

Adonis raised his eyes, the golden pupils were full of gentleness: "I will never hurt you."

The premise is not to make him unhappy, then he may imprison his freedom.This is also one of the complex and multifaceted divinities of Poseidon.

Venus breathed a sigh of relief and said happily, "Then you will always be my favorite."
