Bouquet of Narcissus

The sea breeze is very cool at night on the small island, and it is even colder in the middle of the night, only the stars are shining.

Narcissus was restless and restless in his sleep, his face was haggard, and there were obvious troubles and distress on his snow-white face.The ten-day deadline has passed, but no one has passed the island.

Suddenly someone caressed him gently, Narcissus opened his eyes, his snow-white face was full of doubt and indifference, his petal-like lips were tightly pressed, and he asked silently: "Is it mother?"

no.

It was Rouyana, the goddess of the sea wind, who showed a beautiful figure and sang: "You are still so restless in your sleep

Is it because of my poor hospitality

Is the perilla jam not sweet enough, or the silk bedding not soft enough?

I came here from the distant top of the Deshfu Mountain, following the wind of the ocean, and I was very happy to see you at the first sight.

I don't care about your nobility and arrogance, but I feel the same for your self-confidence and distress

I try my best to meet your needs, but you are always indifferent and meditating, and you don't appreciate my dancing and singing

If I'm not sincere enough, what else can I do not do well enough? "

Narcissus smiled at the sea wind goddess Rouyana, causing the goddess to palpitate, and covered her mouth again and again, "You are so beautiful, I am here to tell you, I have seen sailboats entering the sea in the distance, and someone will come after dawn to this island."

Narcissus' eyes lit up, and he ran to the shore, waiting impatiently.

The Goddess of the Sea Breeze accompanied him, singing softly, and told stories about the top of the Deshfu Mountain.Narcissus also told his little story in the deep forest, and then said: "Maybe you will like the goddess Echo, she appreciates everyone very much, no matter what others say, she will agree."

The Goddess of Sea Breeze was smiling, pestering him to talk about the interesting things from the past, and slowly the east became white.

The sun rose above the sea, and the dazzling sunlight made him squint his eyes unconsciously.

He raised his hand to block the sun, and heard a faint sigh, "My child, you have suffered."

He tilted his head, and in the backlight, he saw a beautiful woman with a beautiful figure standing there, with long golden hair as lush as the branches and leaves of a laurel tree.

"Mother." Surprised, Narcissus flew over, his eyes were red, he hugged the beauty tightly, not daring to let go, for fear that she would disappear, "Mother, you are back."

Narcissus was unwilling to let go of his mother for a long time, until the goddess of water patted him on the shoulder, "Follow me back, it's my fault, leaving you here alone, but you have been wronged like this." Holding Narcissus' hand, he left in the opposite direction of the royal city.Only then did Narcissus realize that the king and two ministers were standing not far from them.

Narcissus' face changed, and he was about to run away, but remembering that his mother was still here, he held on to her hand tightly.

The herald rushed over, "Please stay a little longer, the great, calm and gentle river god, the unparalleled beauty of Narcissus, the king wants to have dinner with you."

The king also hurried over, with a peaceful attitude, but he still had a bit of majestic anger when facing Narcissus. He invited them, kept saying that the misunderstanding could be resolved, and explained the reason.Narcissus snorted coldly and turned his head away.

The goddess of water said softly: "The king is generous." Then she took the reluctant Narcissus and agreed to his invitation.When saying goodbye to the goddess of sea breeze, the goddess shed tears, "Can I see you again? I can't leave the sea, and I can't go to land. How can I see you again?"

The Goddess of Water Ze solemnly thanked her for taking care of her child, and invited her to say: "When the matter here is settled, you can go to the deep forest as a guest. I think you will fall in love with it."

The goddess smiled through tears, and wrote down the invitation. She said, "Maybe I will definitely go there after the Lord of the Sea Region, the God of Shaking Earth, returns and I can move freely."

Narcissus nodded, "Thank you for your hospitality, I can avoid eating those fishy fish, I wish you well."

King Laomedon had been waiting for them to board the ship, which was not a small ship, but a luxurious cruise ship with huge sails and many guards.

Narcissus followed his mother to the boat, watched her greet them, and kept discussing the upcoming banquet.

The banquet was held on the towering terrace, where the sun shines through the gauze, bright but not dazzling.

Beautiful girls danced and strong boys beat the drums.

A harp is playing melodious music, and a singer is singing loudly.

Garlands, bouquets, wreaths, and flower petals sprinkled the table, and a delicious lamb was placed on the table whole, smeared with sweet olive oil.

Cheese, bread, soft and sweet.Beef, lamb, golden and delicious.Grapes, apples, red dates, piled up on the plate.

The maids of the palace came and went, serving red wine and Yuquan pure wine one by one, and the guests at the banquet laughed and laughed happily.

Narcissus sat upright, watching everything with cold eyes.

The king and his ministers were merry, and were talking of trying to win the distant lady back to be the new queen.Vilia, who had gone on a long voyage, also came back, saw him say hello, but was stopped by a noble girl when he wanted to come over, they also provoked a dance.

The sons and daughters of the ministers also dispatched one after another, and Laomedon began to recite his achievements again, and the ministers applauded and echoed.They rejoiced and sang.

"Troy, great Troy, happy and peaceful Troy

Here we dance, here we sing

God, God, Troy is as brilliant as Olympus

We have unlimited food and wealth

Herds of cattle, sheep, pigs and dogs,

Come, glorious and great king, lord of a great and rich kingdom

Sing a song for us! "

"It's really lively." He said, the corners of his lips were slightly curved, and his eyes were full of sarcasm, "It's a pity that Momo can't see it."

The mother smiled and said nothing, "Child, eat more, and mother will take you home after eating." Narcissus bowed his head after hearing this.

The little parrot stood on his shoulder, "Go home, go home."

Narcissus scratched his feathers, "You are the laziest, hide so I can find you." Before he left the palace in a hurry, the parrot disappeared without a trace, and he was still worried about it when he was in prison. his life.Unexpectedly, this guy ran into a minister's mansion, eating and drinking with a beautiful girl was very comfortable.His master was forgotten.

The little parrot came over obediently, but was pushed away by Narcissus. He watched his mother get up and take a glass of wine to socialize.At the same time, he was planning in his heart to ask his mother to help him catch Finnemos, this time he would have to avenge his shame.He has already learned that in order to get the king to pardon him for killing the queen, his mother promised to eradicate the water monster first, restore the water source, and then dig a spring under the palace.It's going to take a long time, and the wall is only 15 meters away. That bastard is not going to run away.

Thinking of this, Narcissus got up and asked the herald.

The herald said: "The king has rewarded a lot, but the designer is not too satisfied. He asked to increase the treatment of laborers, and to build a house for himself, which should be covered with soft silk, exquisite silverware, and countless He wants the brightest shells of the deep sea, the huge pearls of the bottom of the sea, and he wants to adorn his bed.

What a beautiful description, the herald took a sip of wine and continued: "The designer also said that he likes home life, he wants a perfect residence, and the dining room should be covered with wool blankets from Phoenicia and Egypt. .The dining table will have white porcelain plates and vases from the Orient. Eighty sets of shiny metal utensils will be used to fill the entire table. There will also be elk with horns and olive trees from Cyprus, planted in his garden."

Narcissus opened his mouth wide, and said half a sentence: "He really dares to think." He had never seen these descriptions in the palace, and only heard about them in the temple of the main god of Mount Olympus in his mother's legend. There is such a description.

The herald said respectfully: "His request cannot be satisfied by the king. The king is distressed, how can he refuse."

Priam came over to interrupt their chat, and looked at Narcissus carefully, "Take it easy, don't be so impulsive in doing things in the future. The queen is at fault, but you rushed into the palace blatantly, which made my father very upset. fear."

Narcissus was not convinced, "She is only allowed to kill, and I am not allowed to take revenge. There is no such rule, and the law of our deep forest is that revenge must be revenge." Although the fairies and elves in the forest lived in harmony there, there was no fight at all. The thought of killing.

Priam sighed and shook his head, "The king's city is very poor, but my father holds banquets every day. Besides, the giant python is still in the city. I don't know when it will be caught."

"Are you still on a long voyage?" Narcissus asked, and Vilia also came over and said, "Go, we are going to Sparta and Greece." Take the expedition team to plunder the wealth of small city-states to enrich our city-state.Velia believes that this is a top honor, and wealth comes from exploration and plunder, and it is not shameful, but respected.

"Well, I will leave with my mother after you leave. I don't know when and where we will meet again. I wish you a smooth journey with these two cups." Narcissus looked around and confirmed that the little princess Hesione He didn't come, he accepted the rice wine handed over by the maid and drank it all in one gulp.

Priam and Vilia laughed and said with relief, "Our little brother has grown up."

The little green parrot flew over happily, stretching out its sharp beak to drink.Halfway through the banquet, many people were already a little drunk.At this time, six young girls were dancing with lily petals, and behind them were young and middle-aged men in short brown clothes, painted with honey-colored olive oil, with wooden masks on their faces, tall and tall. Majestic, full of masculinity.

They hold the harp, majestic and mighty.The girls are light and graceful, and their singing voices are melodious.Many people's eyes were focused, and Narcissus saw an acquaintance—Gennabo winked at him playfully.
