The fleet turned, heading to the nearest island, and the fleet silently headed for its goal.

Soon, the outline of an island appeared in everyone's field of vision, the outline gradually became larger, it was an uninhabited island, in order to prevent running aground and running on the reef, the fleet circled the island and found a natural pier to dock on.

The island is deserted, birds and beasts are extinct, strange rocks are craggy, as far as the eye can see, there are almost no green plants, and the area is still very small, about only about 1 square kilometer.

"Quick, now prepare the materials for the altar, build it in the open area of the island, and bring all the remaining bulls down. Pei Ziyun ordered.

The altar materials were carried off the ship by the slaves, and the soldiers were in charge of the guard, and under the supervision and planning of the priests accompanying the ship, an altar was soon erected in the open area of the island.

The makeshift altar is circular in shape, with a pedestal made of earth and stones.

Pei Ziyun was wearing a white tunic with a bronze belt, and a short sword hanging from his waist, and his face was serious.

A group of slaves drove the remaining eight bulls off the ship, and after this time at sea, the bulls lost some fat.

All soldiers and slaves lined up in front of the altar.

After some ominous prophecy from Nereus, the god of the sea, the soldiers and slaves are not emotionally stable now, and they are shocked in the face of the god's prophecy.

Thinking of this, Pei Ziyun no longer hesitated, and shouted: "Everyone, just now the sea god Nereus told us a prophecy, my heart is a little panicked, but what is the worst result of this prophecy? It was the Greeks who came after us with an army and destroyed our homeland Troy, they did this once before, and robbed our princess Hesione. ”

"The worst is the worst, but we in Troy are not what they used to be, and when we robbed them, we did so for revenge, to restore our lost dignity. ”

"My dear fellows, citizens, are you ready to meet the arrogant Greeks head-on when Menelaus comes after him with the Allies, and let them see the tenacity and indomitability of our Trojans, and let them taste defeat as well. ”

"Troy will win. Pei Ziyun raised his arm and shouted.

"Victory. ”

"Victory. ”

Just now, under the blow of the ominous prophecy of the sea god Nereus, the morale seems to have recovered a little, Pei Ziyun watched everyone rekindle their hope, glow their fighting spirit, and nodded slightly.

Pei Ziyun took the bull from the slave and drove the eight bulls into the altar, and the priest took out the water from the jar and sprinkled the altar and the bull, and knelt down to pray to the gods of Olympus.

Helen stood in the crowd shivering a little, as if she felt cold, and when she heard the prophecy of the gods just now, she was a little worried, for fear that Paris would send her back to Menelaus.

Although Paris's impassioned words rekindled the soldiers' hopes, she knew that Menelaus and the Greek coalition were strong, and she had no bottom in her heart about Troy's resistance to the powerful Greek coalition.

Pei Ziyun saw her nervousness and stepped forward to hold her hand to comfort her.

"Don't be afraid, Helen, I used to have only one wife, Onone, but I will never regret snatching you from the Spartan palace, much less will I throw you to the angry Menelaus. ”

In the plot, Menelaus raised his sword to kill Helen, and finally forgave Helen - now Helen doesn't know this, but is afraid of the angry Menelaus.

"We fear the gods and prophecies, but I am not a coward, Menelaus is after him, and I will teach him a hard lesson. ”

Paris's palm brought warmth, and Helen's anxiety gradually calmed down under the relief of his words.

"Paris, with you here, I'm no longer afraid. Helen had a faint smile on her face and leaned lightly on his shoulder.

Pei Ziyun thought about it again and again, and decided to use music to make the gods feel his mood at the moment, so he ordered the slaves to bring the harp from the ship and play the harp when the priest prayed.

Pei Ziyun's piano skills have the level of Da Xu, while Paris is already a master of harp and shepherd's flute, and he is completely proficient.

"Fate, where to take me?" Pei Ziyun played the song "Fate" of the famous artists of later generations, which was very appropriate to the occasion and very much in line with his current situation.

In the winter storm, the knight is charging, and the voice is sometimes high-pitched, sometimes low, sometimes lowered, sometimes raised, like the journey of life.

The music slowly lowered, and then slowly rose, looping twice, as if facing the fate of the sword mountain and the sea of fire, he was nervous, not daring to step forward, thinking of escaping.

The fate is so terrible, it seems that people have to bow their heads, but people can't live forever with their heads down, and then the tone of the music rushes straight up, although the sound of the piano, but it seems to blow the horn of war.

In the fierce melody, fighting each other, everyone seemed to see the sunset like blood, the battlefield was full of soldiers' corpses, and then the sound of the piano gradually decreased, with a thick sadness and sadness, and then the morning light swept across the battlefield, she seemed to be a gentle woman, gently caressing the cheeks of the fallen soldiers.

It seems to be Aphrodite's divine power, and the music is particularly charming, and the sound of the piano passes through many barriers and enters Mount Olympus.

The gods were immersed in the beautiful sound of the piano, and they seemed to feel the ups and downs of fate, the hesitation, the reluctance, and the rise of Paris.

"I felt the impermanence of fate. Zeus said.

"My dear, that is the fate of mortals, and we are the ones who control it. Hera said to Zeus.

"Paris's fate is decided, so what if he has such talent?" said Athena.

Apollo himself is the god of music, he listened quietly, and felt the twists and turns of fate, as well as the beauty of music itself.

The soldiers and slaves of the uninhabited island listened to Prince Paris's music, although they did not have the talent to appreciate it, but such beautiful music, no matter who listens quietly, they will feel some of the charm of it.

The warriors saw their comrades fighting on the battlefield in the sound of the piano, charging again and again, and finally in the bloody sunset, they remained on the battlefield forever, the breeze blowing, the smoke of gunpowder dispersed, and the morning light sprinkled all over the earth, and it had nothing to do with them.

Some of the soldiers were in tears and felt the same way.

The slaves saw their pitiful life experience in fate, and also experienced the twists and turns of fate and injustice.

Gesne closed his eyes and muttered in his mouth, as if echoing the poetry of fate, he is the person who can best understand the impermanence of fate, he was poor at the beginning, and now he is illustrious and wealthy, his fate has experienced a great turn, from the trough to the peak, twists and turns.

Cocelia's tears were all over her cheeks, and her fate changed from happy to terrible, but she did not run away, but stubbornly met the challenge of fate.

In the sound of music, after praying, the priest waved his hand, the slaves tied up the eight bulls one by one, the priest took a knife, stabbed hard, and with a "poof", the bull neighed, and the blood was sprayed like a spring of water, and it flowed to the altar.

The priest was skillful in disemboweling the bulls, removing the entrails and bones, cutting off the heads, sorting the meat, slaughtering eight bulls in a row, and placing all the divided beef on the altar.

Before it was served, Pei Ziyun's song happened to be completed, he washed his hands and picked up the golden cup, filling it with wine.

The music of fate seemed to be echoing in his ears, Pei Ziyun stepped forward, poured the wine down three times, and raised his hand to pray: "O great Zeus, my ancestors, great Hera, the mother of the gods, the terrible Hades, the turbulent Poseidon, the Gaia of the earth, the Demeter who gave the harvest, the wise and civilized Athena, the Artemis with the bow and arrow, the bright Apollo ......"

Pei Ziyun recited the names of the gods of Mount Olympus one by one and said: "The most precious thing in man is life, and life is only once for each of us." ”

"I was afraid and shaken when I committed such a sin, and I wanted to run away from everything and flee with Helen to a place where no one knew. ”

"But I am the prince of Troy after all, I am a warrior, and I cannot easily escape responsibility. ”

"Death, some as heavy as Mount Ida, some as scattered as leaves, I want me to leave the world, and when I look back, I can say that I have committed many sins, but I am not ashamed to run away, and I will devote my life and my strength to my atonement, my destiny. ”

"O gods, I sacrificed to you as I do today, and I sang to you, O gods, as I do today, and if you remember it, give me courage to face the challenges of fate. ”

With the prayer, the bulls were not used by many gods, only a few.

"It was Hades and Gaia who took it, but the gods of Olympus hardly took it. ”

The priest's feeling made Pei Ziyun immediately feel the effect of the sacrifice, and his heart sank.

Although just now, Pei Ziyun was not optimistic about the effect of the sacrifice, but the sacrifice to the gods can see the attitude of the gods clearly, and secondly, he can make the gods clear about their attitudes - he still respects the gods of Mount Olipis as always.

In this way, the gods will not suspect that he has a different heart, so they will use thunder means to shoot directly.

In the upcoming battle of Troy, he has to dance the dance of death on the edge of violating the bottom line of the gods, calmly harvesting the heroes who came to die, and improving his strength as soon as possible.

And in order for the gods to continue to play according to the "script", it is very important that you must first be a pious prince yourself.

But even with such psychological preparation, this result still made Pei Ziyun's heart sink.

This sacrifice was actually a sacrifice for sin, but it was not accepted except for the gods of Hades and the earth. ”

"The passage just now actually picked a certain famous sentence and touched many people, but it is clear that the gods are indifferent to it. ”

"Is that the difference between God and man?"

"Sentences of concern and generosity to mortals, or in the eyes of God, only find them ridiculous. ”
