Chapter Seventy-Five: The Legend of the Aegean Sea
"Aqian, I know that for you, you may not like the Aegean Sea, but you know what?"
"The Aegean Sea is also known as the Sea of Love, and there is a legend about the Aegean Sea in the beautiful and ancient Greece, the pure land where the gods lived and loved. Would you like to hear it?"
Yunchen leaned lightly on the balcony fence, his slender legs slightly crossed, and under the illumination of the stars at night, a pair of handsome and gentle eyes quietly looked at his beloved.
"Let's hear it. Lin Qian felt a little interesting, after all, she didn't know what myths and stories there were in this Aegean Sea.
Yunchen chuckled, looked up at the starry sky in the sky, and said slowly: "As early as a hundred years ago in Greece, there was a very famous harpist, and she was called Qin. Legend has it that her voice could calm an angry Poseidon, that she could make the jealous Hera feel forgiving, and that her voice would bring a happy smile to the gloomy Hades. ”
In her name, the young king sent messengers. But Jean mercilessly refused his invitation. Shallow, guess why she turned down the invitation. ”
Yunchen paused, and glanced down at the girl next to him who was listening energetically.
Lin Qian blinked his eyes and replied with some uncertainty: "Because the king invited her to play the piano just out of curiosity." But it's impossible for a person who is a piano to agree to such a person's request, right?"
"Poof! Ah Qian is really smart, yes, that's exactly what Qin thinks, in her principle, it is a king who will not be empty, but will only enjoy himself. ”
The messenger told the king exactly what she said, but who would have thought that the king would laugh when he heard it. The next morning, the ladies of the palace found that the king was gone, but they all laughed and walked away as if nothing had happened. ”
"Are you going to find that piano?" Lin Qian immediately interrupted Yunchen and said, "Is it difficult to use it to rob it?"
"Fool, the king of Greece at that time was a peaceful man, how could he be so vexatious. Yunchen explained helplessly.
"Oh well, you go on. Lin Qian waved his hand, indicating that it had nothing to do with her, and asked him to continue.
Indeed, the king went to look for the harp, and by the sound of the harp, he saw the girl he admired by the olive planted by Athena. The breeze floated lightly on her delicate face, the nightingale stood on her shoulder and sang with her, the scent of flowers wrapped around her fingertips and drifted into the distance with the plucked notes. ”
"What do Greek girls look like?" Lin Qian interrupted Yunchen here, she suddenly had a little bit of interest in the Aegean Sea, all because Yunchen spoke so vividly, which made her very curious.
Yunchen was completely helpless, and gently spread Lin Qian's head with his fingers, and said dotingly: "You! Ah Qian can't listen to me after he finishes speaking, are you asking?
Lin Qian sniffed, and didn't feel that there was anything wrong, so he said: "Yunchen, you talk about yours, I ask me, there is no conflict! ”
"Okay, okay, okay, then can Ah Qian interrupt me less? When I'm done, let Ah Qian ask, okay?" Yunchen can't help it, he won't blame Lin Qian, right?
"That's the deal. Lin Qian also felt that if he asked Yunchen from time to time and interrupted him, then Yunchen didn't feel it at all when he told the story, so he agreed.
And the harp, who was playing the harp, suddenly felt a blazing light scorching all around. She looked up and met a gaze that was more beautiful than the sky and more dazzling than the deep sea. For a moment, they only looked at each other, while ignoring all sides. ”
From that day on, the king would quietly leave the palace every morning, and Jean would take his beloved harp to a mysterious place every morning. The development of things is more beautiful than the story, and the love between Jean and the king is not hindered by the royal family. With the blessings of the people and all the princes and nobles, the qin was brought into the court. ”
"Ah Qian, do you want to stop guessing what happened to them?" Yunchen played a dumb riddle and asked Lin Qian to guess again.
At this time, Lin Qian was a little difficult to guess, and muttered in a low voice: "It seems that the process of knowing and falling in love with each other seems to be too simple, right? Could it be that there is some conspiracy?"
"Or is there some unknowable secret in the relationship between the two?"
Yunchen quietly listened to Lin Qian's speculation, smiled at the corner of his mouth from time to time, and said lightly: "No." ”
Lin Qian: ..............
"What the hell is it? I don't guess! Say it, don't say break it off for one night. In the end, Lin Qian was really a little displeased, she simply glared at Yunchen directly and threatened.
"Heh, Ah Qian can't guess, it's reasonable, after all, no one would have expected the sudden occurrence of war. ”
"The originally friendly Linguo suddenly launched a terrible war, and the king had to rush to the battlefield immediately for the safety of his people. On the wedding night, he left the girl he loved. ”
Every day, Jean went to the place where he had a date to pluck the harp to the distant king, but waited for the news of his death in battle. She was strong, and tears didn't even have a chance to spill into her eyes. On that day, Jean put on the king's blood-stained robes and commanded the brutal battlefield with his fingers that plucked the strings. ”
"At the moment when the whole country was celebrating the victory, under the cloudless sky, the king's robe on the lap of the piano was soaked with crystal droplets. ”
Day after day, year after year, Jean played the piano to the stars every night, hoping that her lover would hear her in heaven, and every morning she went around collecting the scattered dewdrops, which she knew was her lover's response to her love. ”
"At last, many years later, until the day she awoke from her eternal sleep, all the five million two hundred and thirty-four bottles of dew that she had collected all her life were poured into the place where she stole. Just as the last drop hit the ground, a miracle happened. A clear spring gushed from Jean's grave, embracing her body. From springs to streams, from streams to rivers, and from rivers to seas. ”
"Since then there has been a clear sea in Greece. People call it the "Aegean Sea". ”
Finally Yunchen finished telling the story, and Lin Qian on the side fell into silence, she felt some pity and sympathy for this legend of the Aegean Sea.
