Temple of Ares

As soon as Pei Ziyun entered the pillar of the temple, he felt a gaze in the air, feeling the gaze, Pei Ziyun's heart sank, knowing that he had received the attention of the gods.

Walking to the door of the temple, the priest of the temple was already waiting, leading Pei Ziyun inside.

In front of the statue of Ares, the god of war, at the altar in the center of the temple, Pei Ziyun saluted, took the head of the fire lizard from the slave, and put the head on the altar, only to see that the head of the fire lizard immediately disappeared on the altar, and the priest said, "Prince Paris, the god has accepted your sacrifice." ”

Pei Ziyun nodded, walked out of the Temple of Ares, and went to the next Temple of Artemis.

The Temple of Artemis, the last time Pei Ziyun sacrificed the head of the sea monster, he went to Troy once, and the Temple of Artemis in the Amazon can be said to be simple compared to the temple of Troy.

However, the Sacred Forest is very large, which is better than Troy's.

When they reached the gate of the temple, the priest said, "Prince Paris, the gods already know that you will come to the temple to worship, please come in!"

Pei Ziyun was slightly stunned, and found that Artemis had a relatively friendly attitude towards him, he followed the priest into the temple, and when he came to the altar Artemis statue, he obviously felt a gaze from the statue.

Pei Ziyun didn't dare to look at it more, saluted, and said loudly: "Artemis, the great god of hunting, with your blessing, I hunted the two-headed lizard, and this time I will dedicate the head of the ice lizard to you, hoping to continue to receive your protection and blessing." ”

After saying that, he held the head of the ice lizard and placed it on the altar, and as soon as he put it on, the head disappeared.

The priest smiled: "Prince Paris, the gods are very satisfied with your sacrifice and are willing to continue to shelter and bless you, and the gods also say that she can avoid danger for you when you are in danger during your hunt." ”

Pei Ziyun also felt that Artemis seemed to be relatively favored, and her brother Apollo also gave him a promise of protection last time.

Offering the head of the fire lizard and the head of the ice lizard to Ares and Artemis respectively, Pei Ziyun did not forget to offer a regular sacrifice to the gods, and as long as there are temples in Amazon City, there is a regular sacrifice.

In this way, although you can't please these gods, at least you won't make them disgusted with you.

"For people like Chrissis, you can buy them. After the sacrifice was completed and out of the temple, Pei Ziyun whispered to Gesne.

The city-states were at war with each other, and even the nobles could be captured and sold, but the Amazons used them too little - slaves!

Such people can buy.

Seeing Gesne nodding in agreement, Pei Ziyun sighed.

Day 2 - Amazon Palace

Pei Ziyun arrived in a white robe, observing the situation, the palace was not completely new, but it was cleaned up, and there was no trace of blood, no wailing could be heard, only a smell of blood lingered for a long time.

Fruits are placed in the hall, and the aroma of grilled meat and sake is even more fragrant.

Pei Ziyun waited for the banquet to officially start.

"Prince Paris, most of the goods carried on our warship have been sold, and some fine products have been given to the Amazon royal family according to your orders, and we have made a lot of money on this trip to Amazon. ”

Gesne's eyes lit up, as if he had come here to make money.

At the same time as diplomacy, it is also the time of trade, and it is the norm for warships to carry goods in this era, but if it were not for Pei Ziyun's assistance in killing the two-headed lizard, things would not have gone so smoothly.

The servants roasted chicken, roast pork, and whale meat, Pei Ziyun glanced at it and asked, "Well, you have done a good job in this matter, how are the preparations for poetry?"

"Ready. ”

After saying that, Gesne sang a poem about the bravery of the queen and the prince, and together with the song, it immediately attracted the attention of those present, and everyone liked the poem.

One of the elders said, "Now this hymn is being sung outside, and many people have heard it." ”

When Queen Penthesilea and Princess Hippolyta arrived, the feast began, and the singers sang about the heroes in a loud voice, which was the norm, and everyone was delighted.

Pei Ziyun performed well in both the game and the rebellion, and he was outstanding in appearance and prominent status, so the queen and princess looked at him from time to time as soon as they entered the banquet, and this performance was self-evident - the queen and princess both fell in love with Paris.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this rebellion has been successfully put down, and we are fortunate to be protected by the gods, so let us thank them together for their protection. Queen Penthesirea raised her glass, thanked the myths, poured the wine into the cup as a sacrifice to the gods, and drank it all.

Pei Ziyun stood up and drank the wine as well.

The banquet was lively, not only with Gesnie, but also with other singers who had been gifted by Apollo to give musical talent.

Queen Penthesirea summoned her servant again, and cut off the best piece of the roast pork in front of her, and put it on a plate, saying, "I should pay tribute to Prince Paris, for yesterday he killed the two-headed lizard, and saved the lives of many of us." ”

This is already obvious to the queen, but the Amazon high-level is very happy about this, and an elder said directly: "Prince Paris can hunt sea monsters, kill two-headed lizard monsters, and is the blood of the king of the gods, if he can leave offspring with the queen and princess, it would be the best." ”

"For the reproduction of the royal family, you can't just find a lowly slave, or a barbarian, right?"

Through the slave trade, the Amazon obtained the male slaves needed by the merchants to graze and farm, freeing the women to concentrate on training and warfare.

The problem of reproduction is not only with slaves, but also with the local strong barbarian tribes in the Caucasus Mountains.

"The child of Prince Paris and the Queen, if it is a girl, cannot be taken away, but the boy can let him take it to Troy. ”

When Pei Ziyun heard the words, he sneered in his heart: "These elders can't help but think too naïve, not to mention that they hate the practices of the Amazons, even if they don't dislike it, they don't want to think about it if they become a fertility machine." ”

At that moment, I was very grateful for accepting the food presented by the queen.

One person brought the harp, the maiden danced, and the violinist sang a beautiful song of praise to God and life, followed by a sword dance, and the spectators clapped their hands rhythmically to cheer them on.

Pei Ziyun said: "Queen Penthesilea, it is no exaggeration to say that you have the best dancers in the world!"

Penthesilea was very pleased to hear the praise. He said to the elders, "You have all heard the praise of this Trojan prince, and he is a man of honor, worthy of a rich gift from us, and we now have twelve elders, all of whom should give gifts, and Prince Paris will surely be pleased." ”

The elders all agreed with the queen's words, and gave them gifts one by one, and Gesne, knowing that this was actually a gift from the fleet to the royal family, was also very happy, and loaded the gifts and gold in a chest, and then carried the boxes to the warship.

Princess Hippolyta lived in the inner court, admired the figure and handsome face of Prince Paris, and also presented a silver cup, and said gently: "Noble guest, may you be healthy and happy!

After the banquet, Pei Ziyun bowed down and officially submitted his farewell.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Princess, my mission to your country has been completed, thank you very much for your hospitality, and I bid you farewell. ”

Queen Penthesilea, a little disappointed and angry: "Propose to leave so quickly, is this a wooden man?"

Although she thought so in her heart, the queen still agreed to Pei Ziyun's resignation, and she and the Amazon executives personally sent Pei Ziyun to the port.

She said to Pei Ziyun with a slight apology: "Although I can't change the Amazon national policy, if Troy is in trouble, I will lead my personal guard to come." ”

"As for your servants, choose the best slaves from us. She glanced at Gesne and said that Gesnie's actions were not hidden from her.

"That's okay too. Pei Ziyun thought, looking at the queen and princess's somewhat resentful eyes, he thought for a while, and then took out a flute from his body and blew it.

"Men plough and weave women, raising their eyebrows;

Childhood sweethearts, each other"

There is no blame in the flute, only praise, this is a famous song in Da Xu's music, although there are differences in aesthetics, but the music has no borders.

The crowd was stunned, the music stopped, but there was silence for a long time, and the queen Penthesilea broke the silence and said, "Prince Paris, are you going back to Troy?

"Relatives?" Pei Ziyun was stunned, looked up, and saw a woman turn out, this woman was covered with a black robe, her whole face was covered with a scarf, and she couldn't see her face clearly, but after just one look, she frowned.

"Relatives, this look is not like a human look at all, it's too fake!" Pei Ziyun looked directly at this woman, and she did not have the slightest crampedness while observing this best of the descendants of Zeus.

With this thought, a plum appeared in front of him, and quickly enlarged, turning into a translucent data frame, floating in the field of vision with a faint sense of light, and the data appeared in front of him.

"Mission: Show off your talents to the fullest and impress the mysterious lady. ”

Pei Ziyun smiled: "Of course you can." ”

Taking the mysterious woman on the boat, Pei Ziyun saw that the sailors on the ship called the sailing flag, waved his hand, and said, "Set sail." ”

Several warships slowly sailed away from the harbor and headed in the direction of Troy.

Watching the battleship go away, Hippolyta looked from afar, and couldn't help but shed tears, she really liked Prince Paris.

Queen Penthesirea looked at her sister and sighed, "Sister, don't say that the prince is already married, even if he is not married, it is impossible for us to be with him. ”

"It's not just the identity, you hear his music, but it expresses that he doesn't like our Amazonian customs and way of life. ”

"Sister, if there is a war in Troy, you will go with your personal guards, and I want to go too!" said Hippolyta stubbornly.
