Chapter 704: Golden Apple

"By the way, Crocodile Zhen, you said you were here to find an elixir, what is the elixir?" Li Shaolong was quite curious about the elixir that the crocodile was really looking for, what kind of elixir was it? If it was just an elixir with life force, Li Shaolong could let them go back first, because there were many things in his space ring that could be replaced, such as thousand-year-old ginseng, life crystals and the like.

If it was a very special elixir, Li Shaolong could only follow them to find it.

After knowing the danger of this world, Li Shaolong hopes that the rats will return to the original world as soon as possible, although no one in this world can hurt Li Shaolong, but there are many people who can hurt rats and others.

In the final analysis, their strength is too weak, and if they are not careful, they may become food in the mouth of some giant.

In Western legends, giants are very fond of eating humans, especially cyclops, and it is said that the staple food is humans. I used to think that it was just nonsense, but now that the giants are in this world, it's not nonsense.

"Yes, rat, what are you husband and wife looking for?"

"What kind of elixir are you looking for?"

"Huh? I don't know, crocodile, what kind of elixir are you looking for? The rat couldn't help asking, this guy didn't even know what kind of elixir the crocodile was really looking for, it seemed that what this husband did was too unsuccessful.

But this can't be blamed on the mouse, this guy only knows the elixir, but the crocodile really didn't tell him.

"It's an apple." Crocodile said.

"Apples?" Everyone couldn't help but stare at each other, the elixir that the crocodile was really looking for turned out to be an apple? Does Apple need to come into this world to find it? That's a lot of them on the planet!

"What kind of apples are you growing? Is it red Fuji? ”

"Is it Gala New Gala?"

"Not? That must be Sansa? ”

"Is it a red star?"

"Marshal Red?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Neither, not an ordinary apple, it's an apple from the age of the godsβ€”the golden apple." "I don't know what it looks like, but the princess told me that it's a golden apple, a golden apple that only existed in the Age of the Gods, and this apple contains a huge energy that can heal children." ”

"Golden apple, there is such a thing? I thought it was just a myth, but I didn't expect it to really exist. Li Shaolong couldn't help but say.

"Dragon, do you know what it is?"

"Dragon, what the hell is a golden apple? Could it be that Steve Jobs made it? ”

"Golden apples, golden apples, aren't they all apples? What's the difference? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Obviously, these guys don't know what the golden apple is, Li Shaolong couldn't help but sigh secretly, it seems that reading more is still useful, what do you say? When the book is used, it is less hated! Reading a lot is still very beneficial!

"Golden apple, this is a well-known thing in Europe, and our Chinese Empire's thousand-year-old ginseng essence and 10,000-year-old He Shou Wu, 100,000-year-old Ganoderma lucidum are as famous, in our Chinese Empire, myths and legends, the Jade Emperor has a peach orchard, the fairy peach in it, a thousand flowers and a thousand years of fruit, people can live forever after eating, and bloom in five thousand years. People who bear fruit once in 5,000 years can become immortals immediately after eating it, while in the West, they have golden apples......" Li Longxuan began to popularize the knowledge about golden apples to these illiterate people.

The golden apple is a famous treasure in Greek mythology. It is said that at the wedding of Zeus, the king of the gods, and Hera, the mother of the gods, Gaia, the goddess of the earth, brought back a large tree with foliage from the west coast as a wedding gift for Zeus and Hera, and the tree was full of golden apples. Zeus sent four daughters of the god of the night, called Hesperides, to guard the sacred garden where the golden apples were planted. In addition, there are 100 dragons Ladong to help them keep watch

Zeus's guy is a very lustful guy, he is a classic character who does not fall with red flags at home and fluttering colorful flags outside, after marrying Hera, he often goes to find beautiful women, goddesses and the like to have an activity beyond friendship, as long as he likes it, he will give it.

There is a goddess called Alcmone, who is the great-granddaughter of Zeus, and the wife of Amfitryon, the king of Thebes, but this great-granddaughter is beautiful, and the beautiful man sees it and stands up directly, Zeus takes a look, and wants to pull her into the cornfield and shoot her, but he is given by Zeus, the father of the gods.

However, at that time, the Greek gods did not have the same moral concept as they do now. Lun or something, it's just too commonplace, even Alcmene married several men after his husband died.

But this woman and Zeus gave birth to a son, named Hercules, this little guy was born with natural divine power, I don't know if it's a genetic mutation, in short, it's mighty.

This Hera is a jealous woman, she was very angry when she knew about it, so she wanted to kill Hercules, and tried to kill him several times, but she couldn't get it, so Hera came out with a poison and asked Hercules to complete twelve impossible things, as long as he can complete these twelve impossible things, he can get a life as long as the gods, and he can also marry a goddess as a wife.

One of the twelve impossible things was to steal golden apples from the apple orchard.

Another thing, also related to the golden apple, is said to have been at the wedding of the human hero Paleus and the goddess of the sea, Thetis. All the gods were invited to the wedding, but Eris, the goddess of discord, was not invited. Holding a grudge, Eris presented a golden apple to his guests at the wedding with the inscription "To the most beautiful goddess". Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite quarreled over the golden apple, and the other gods did not dare to speak for fear of offending the goddess, and the god Zeus let Paris, a beautiful young man who shepherded sheep on the mountain, be the judge.

In order to obtain the golden apple, the three goddesses each offered attractive conditions: Hera gave him supreme power and blessed him as a ruler on a high level; Athena was willing to give him wisdom and strength, and encouraged him to have the courage to take risks and forge a heroic path; Aphrodite promised to make the most beautiful woman in the world fall in love with him and be his wife. Paris thought about it, and felt that power and domination would be enough for him to inherit his father's throne in the future, and that the path of a hero he himself had a good ability to boldly break through, but love was not something that could be encountered every day. So he gave the golden apple to Aphrodite. Later, with the help of Aphrodite, Paris abducted the queen of Sparta, the beautiful Helen, and thus became the fuse of the Trojan War.
