Chapter 203: The next day's rebellion
The sightseeing car went all the way forward against the wind, and the occasional small stone was ruthlessly crushed by it and left a concussion, promising to sit facing the direction of the wind, enjoying this slight thump and thump very much, humming a casual minor tune in his mouth, and adding words little by little.
"I sat in the local's car,
Shake in the Peloponnese;
Behind is a dusty cloud,
Forward, I will make you and me feel comfortable;
……”
While humming and squeezing his eyebrows at Gao Wen, the latter was originally cold from the inside out, but he smiled helplessly after listening to it, it was not easy for each sentence to rhyme with the same ending. Since making the decision to ask questions, he has promised not only to be interested in taking the usual means of transportation, but also to seem to have improved his literary literacy.
The young members of Olympus around him were also in high spirits, pointing and talking and laughing along the way, so unpleasantly like an autumn trip, and after about a hundred big tongues, the sightseeing bus finally arrived at its destination.
The Theatre of Epidaolus, a marble masterpiece known for its astonishing durability and exceptional sound, has staged numerous famous plays from the 4th century BC to the present day. I still remember that I was forced to take a course in the elementary school of Drama and Mythology, and Dr. Liu, who taught this course, recounted with great affection the plays that were staged here, telling about their masks, exaggerated words and deeds to make the audience hear and see, the singing and songwriting troupes on the side, and of course, the open theater built on the hillside..."Epidaolus Theater, a miracle of miracles. That's what he said at the time.
"Here, here!" the young members chose a central block, the marble seat with a hint of coldness, and many places had been rubbed quite smooth, and it was unknown what kind of people had sat in this seat for thousands of years.
"Do you know anything about Greek theatre?" said an enthusiastic member who asked if they needed a pre-viewing briefing.
"Sing, goddness, theangerofAchilles, sonofPeleus...", promising to recite the first few lines of the English version of the Iliad, the young members exclaimed and applauded, but Gao Wen still laughed and said nothing.
"Haha, just kidding, I know a little bit. "It's just an elective course, and the promise is not enough to become a drama master.
"With the knowledge of both of you, you must know what we know. "After being in contact for a long time, I didn't care about the cultural stalks that promised to break out randomly, just Gao Wen opened his mouth with his hands, and the cultural heritage was there, and the young members were convinced.
"But we have to introduce it above, at least the drama we are about to watch," the member pointed to the sky, and the thumb and index finger of his right hand were not far apart, "I have memorized such a thick amount of information, can I have a chance to talk about it briefly?"
The rank of coquettish is not low... Feeling a hint of threat, Promise quickly noticed that they weren't in the same area at all, so he let him say it with a generous smile.
"Oedipus the King" is the work of Sophocles, a famous ancient Greek tragedy writer, which tells the story of Oedipus who unknowingly arranged the murder of his father and his mother due to fate. King Raios of Thebais received an oracle that he would be killed by his son, and to escape his fate, he pierced the newborn's ankle and abandoned him in the wild to die. However, the shepherds who carried out the order took pity on them and secretly transferred the baby to the king of Corinth, Polybos. When the child, named Oedipus, grew up, he left Corinth and vowed never to return, knowing that the king and queen of Corinth were not his biological parents, because the oracle of the temple of Delphi said that he would kill his father and marry his mother. ”
"When he wandered to the vicinity of Thebais, he got into a confrontation with a group of strangers on a fork in the road and accidentally killed someone, including his own father. Thebes is trapped by the Sphinx, a sphinx, because he grabs everyone who passes by and tears them apart if they can't solve his puzzles. In order to get out of trouble, Thebais announced that whoever can solve the puzzle and save the city-state from the mouth of the Sphinx will be able to obtain the throne and marry the king's widow, Jocasta. Later, it was Oedipus who solved the riddle of the Sphinx, rescued Thebais, inherited the throne, and unknowingly married his own mother, and had two sons and two daughters. Later, plagues and plagues plagued the country ruled by Oedipus, so the king asked the gods for advice on why they were becoming. Finally, under the revelation of the prophet Tirisias, he learned that he was the son of Laios, and the oracle was finally fulfilled. ”
This member spoke really simply and clearly, and the promise was expected, but when he really listened to this introduction at this time, his face couldn't help but change, fortunately, Gao Wen opened his mouth, "It's really a classic, even if you start." ”
Several members who observed the unnatural reaction to the promise received a delay of a few seconds and dismissed it as a mistake, turned around and happily waited for the opening scene, and a member of the elemental group went down to explain to the actors, and after a few lingering tests, the first character priest appeared.
The actors all speak Greek, and with the blessing of the extraordinary sound effects of the Epidolus Theater, ** magnificence and a hint of psychedelia, the golden-masked Oedipus appears, and for a while the lines are pouring out.
Later generations commented that "Oedipus the King" praised man's indomitable and positive fighting spirit, but in fact, after the struggle, he did not escape from his fate after all. "The big tongue of the Golden Mask is particularly good, and his gestures are exaggerated, and he has a kind of spirit, but after about an hour, he will be blinded, all thoughts will be lost, and he will talk to himself on the stage in a madness.
"Hmm. Gao Wen trembled slightly in the sea of spirits in response, he knew the meaning of the promise, just like they all knew the meaning of Olympus arranging this show.
Drama, like many other arts, is something that only those who like it like, and those who are not very interested in it will eventually be confused and unclear. The promise is not as gifted as Gao Wen, but perhaps it is the environment full of heritage, the performance with profound skills, and the bonus of having something in his heart, which makes him tremble in the back of his head several times during watching and fall into it.
Oedipus still stabbed himself in the eye, and the long, crazy monologue was hard to say what emotion it was, and the performance slowly came to an end, but Creon, who was orphaned, turned around on stage and seemed to have something to say to the audience, which was different from what he had promised to learn in class.
"The so-called fate is the final destination. ”
After the sound is over, the play ends.
Commit to taking a deep breath and standing up and applauding.
"Brother Cheng..."
"Brother Gao Wen, I know that many tragedies of fate originate from the protagonist knowing his fate and trying to change before falling into the trap of fate, and I have to say that Olympus's plan to delay and soften is executed very well, and this "Oedipus King" is also highly skilled. But do you think "Oedipus the King" is a tragedy of fate or a tragedy of character? In fact, whether you know it or not, as long as it is that person, he will go that way and reach that end?" promised to applaud as he nodded to the young members around him.
"If that's the case, why don't we find out? Promise patted Gao Wen on the shoulder, hugged him with the young members and thanked the actors, and then got into the popular sightseeing bus again and set off for the beach, "Ah, that sentence seems to be read from the novel by my brother's bedside, what is the name..."
"In that case, no matter what, I will choose the same path as Brother Cheng. "The spirit of Gao Wen is strong and powerful.
"Hey. ”
I know...
Pushing the sightseeing car with spirit all the way, until the Aegean Sea, which is inseparable every day, is once again displayed in front of you, in fact, compared with the grape purple that the locals often say, the promise feels that ink blue is its color. A blue and white sailboat was moored on the side, and the beach seemed to be surrounded by Olympus, bounded by two large rocks on the left and right, and there was no one but them, but looking further afield, it was difficult to calculate how many sailboats were parked on this entire coastline and how many people were carrying.
"We're ready. "The wandering spirit receives the desired message.
Promise looked at Gao Wen, and Gao Wen also looked at him, everything was ready.
"This is our ship, let's go first. The young members invited.
"Then we're welcome. "I still want to go to sea to have fun, but if I have something important to do, forget it.
Space transfer, Zhanjun Zhankun arrived.
"ποιος (who)?" As soon as the young members asked a word, they were blinded by the strong light emitted by Zhan Kun, and Zhan Jun took this opportunity to set up the snowflake obsidian door frame, and it was okay to leave it to them after using it.
The connection was quickly completed, promising to close his eyes, mentally sensing that Zhan Jun was beckoning them to advance, and he didn't have time to sigh that his super goggle-style sunglasses were still very good with clothes, and promised to walk over first with his spiritual eyes.
"Zizi... Buzz..."
"Ahh
The moment he was about to step through the door, a force that seemed to have been waiting for a long time erupted in, and the promise unconsciously screamed, and then realized where the pain came from.
"Spirit?"
