Bouquet of Narcissus

Five days later, in the Troy Palace, the magnificent hall in the past has become lifeless now.

Many ministers were frowning and mournful.

Narcissus did not miss the process of Hector reprimanding Paris: Paris' impulsiveness made Poseidon completely stand on the opposite side.This god will become a serious problem for Troy, because he has incomparable divine power, comparable to Zeus.

But so what?

Even if Troy is regretting, it will not help. They have offended the god a long time ago.

So the old king interrupted the reprimand, but said to the two princes: "We will adopt the advice of the minister Rhodes and choose a loyal and beautiful woman to seduce Agamemnon."

The beauty trick is used.

After they discussed the effectiveness of the beauty trap, they proceeded to the next step. It would be best to divide the agreement between Agamemnon and his brother Menelaus, because some spies said that the agreement between Menelaus and Agamemnon Achilles, the strong player in his hand, has a deep contradiction.

Narcissus listened to the entire meeting very bored, and then went out of the palace, and saw that the sea water had spread to the highlands, and Troy would become an ocean in less than half a month if it continued like this.

Troy is in dire straits. On the high roof sits a few weeping women. They miss their sons and husbands on the high mountain. They are preparing for the next battle. Now that the house looks like this, they may feel at ease ?

More than a dozen search and rescue ships are salvaging the children who fell into the water. They are ignorant, but they are the hope and future of Troy.

Unfortunately, a wave came and the lifeboat capsized. Narcissus flew over there and rescued the children.

Another wave hit again, breaking up the newly built ship, and wandering on the wave surface, the people on the ship exclaimed——

Looking at the rising sea, Narcissus suddenly had an idea in his mind, Poseidon would not expand his territory in this way, would he?

Aphrodite suggested that the sun god Apollo drive a chariot to keep the sun over Troy and dry the sea.The whimsical idea was rejected by Phoebus Apollo.No one can resist the scorching sun, and no one dares to touch the sacrificial site of Gaia, the mother of the earth.

There are many objects floating in the sea: women's headscarves, children's toys, the corpses of farm animals, dead bugs with white bellies... It's disgusting, and some two- and three-year-old children don't understand these things, they just think it's fun, I reached out to catch it, but was knocked off by the mothers clapping their hands, and I was so frightened that I cried loudly.

Narcissus shook his head and went to the Greek camp.They were all on a big ship, the fortress was built high, and the trenches dug before had been covered by water.The Greeks are good at water stations. They grew up by the sea, and they are very familiar with the sea and the coast. This was their main battlefield, but a plague made them overwhelmed.

Soldiers lay in rows on the deck of the ship, sleeping with their eyes closed, and occasionally groaning in pain. The disease is about to take their lives. Although they will die on the battlefield, they will be honored and die in the There is nothing but humiliation on deck.Narcissus saw Agamemnon and Achilles quarreling violently.

Agamemnon drank the wine arrogantly, and said: "Can this small plague allow us to return home and withdraw from the battlefield? Achilles, you are too cautious, the plague will not last forever Let's hold a few more sacrifices, you see Troy is more serious than us, wait for the last five warships to be built, we will take them all at once, bring back our food, wine, beauties and wealth, and return with honor."

"Stupid Agamemnon, open your eyes and see, our soldiers are already under the scythe of death, how can they have combat effectiveness, the plague has spread to the whole army, for the sake of a Helen, I am not willing to give up the soldiers who are with me You can send more people to look for medicinal materials to relieve the pain of the soldiers."

"There is no need to say more, time will give us the answer." Agamemnon was arrogant and ignored Achilles' warning.

Achilles was so angry that he walked out of the cabin door angrily and disembarked. His friend Patroclus was also infected with the plague, although it was very mild but still sluggish.Patroclus persuaded: "There is no need to quarrel with the commander, let us go to the wise Odysseus, and he will tell us the answer."

Narcissus changed into the appearance of Odysseus, and said to them: "I can't do anything about this matter. The priests of our army are begging Athena for mercy, but Athena has not responded. Maybe the only way is to return from a long voyage Only in our hometown can we save the lives of our soldiers.”

Achilles said angrily, "I think so too. Are we all going to die here for a single Helen? I can die for honor, but I don't want to die like this."

"Yes. Great Achilles, I agree with you very much. Now, are you willing to go with me to find King Menelaus of Sparta and persuade him to return with us?"

"No, I don't think King Menelaus will agree with you. He dragged us into the shadow of death because of Helen's unfaithful wife. And I don't have any affection for them brothers. Now I want to take my My friend Patroclus went to look for a military doctor, looking for some medicine to treat him, maybe there will be medicine to treat him on the high mountain. Maybe my mother Thetis will give me some help."

The two of them left by boat, and Narcissus regained his appearance, and at this time a voice sounded behind his ears, "The little guy is cheating again, playing tricks of mortals."

Narcissus did not turn around but ran immediately, but was still caught by Poseidon.Poseidon laughed so that his hairs stood on end, and Narcissus' red lips turned pale, like a frightened bird trembling under Poseidon's shackles, completely different from the arrogance and calmness when they met for the first time.

Poseidon frowned, "What a coward, how could you have the courage to stop me at that time?" But Narcissus was still trembling, not daring to speak or look at Poseidon, like a frightened partridge , making people lose interest.

Poseidon picked him up and shook him. Although he was dizzy for a while, Narcissus only showed a cowardly face and still didn't say a word, which made Poseidon very disappointed.His cowardice made his beautiful face lose some color, and his beauty became shriveled and bald. Poseidon suddenly missed him who was smart and jerky before. After returning, he realized that the beautiful boy was the son of the subordinate river god. Become the messenger of Hades.

Narcissus's beauty is quite sought after, but this temperament is really boring.So Poseidon dropped him: "It's disgusting. Go away."

Narcissus hesitated, got up timidly, and ran away without looking back. Poseidon sneered: "The people in Hades are all cowards. Follow that hypocritical Hades and learn his ways. It's boring and annoying." .” Lost the original color and vitality, why should he care about this kind of person.

Poseidon was swaying, wanting to see who is more powerful, he or Apollo, but he heard curses from Menelaus: "I heard that someone wants to leave the battlefield and return home. Who has the idea to stand up .”

Agamemnon said: "My brother, you don't have to be so angry. Achilles is just a suggestion, and I have already reprimanded him. It is a pity that Zeus has betrayed us. Earlier he promised us that we would let us get all the wealth of Troy. Queen of Heaven Hera also waved the flag for us, and now the couple have abandoned us at the same time. Allowing their son Apollo to cast a curse on us."

When Poseidon heard this, his heart was filled with elation, and he turned into a wise old man, appeared in the crowd, and spoke loudly, full of God's will:

"You mortals who don't know good or bad, dare to question the majesty of God

I tell you that Zeus is the greatest god, he has infinite divine power and can smash your ships at any time.

Don't you forget—he once destroyed his fiancé's city in order to coax a young girl

He is such a king, he can do whatever he wants, aren't you afraid? "

These words aroused people's thinking.

Many people said: "Zeus, the god of the universe, has abandoned our sacrifices. He has enjoyed so many sacrifices, but he can't help us. King of the gods, what should we do?"

Poseidon continued to lobby, and said in a loud voice: "But I tell you, don't be afraid.

Let go of respect and love for Zeus from now on——

Turn around and throw yourself into the arms of Poseidon, the god who shakes the earth

He has a big heart and is full of kindness; he is powerful and powerful, and he is proud but still helps you flood Troy

And in order to make your ships cheaper to travel, the sea and ditches were widened, and the king of sea gods will always be behind you

Guide the way for you - belong to the glory of victory, do not go back. "

He finished.

The crowd suddenly burst into applause: "Now, let us serve the master of the sea, the son of the great Cronus, Poseidon!"

Agamemnon and his brother Menelaus were also very excited: "We will never return without success. We will definitely take Troy and bring back Helen! The plague will be solved! Believe in us, believe in the great Poseidon !"

Poseidon turned into a puff of smoke, and then went to the temple to enjoy the offerings of mortals.
