Chapter 39 [Mythological Drama] matche19

When Dionysus flew back, the ship was completely submerged below the water, all the sailors and guards had died, and the only sailor who was loosened swam desperately to the shore, and there was no Encore anywhere, so anxious that Dionysus almost cried!

Suddenly, a huge splash exploded in the lake, and a goddess of the utmost beauty rose from the water. Her slowly rising body shone with dazzling light, her long waterfall hair seemed to have been washed in the moonlight, the long skirt of the peacock feathers reflected the blue of the lake, her eyes were as bright as the stars, her arms were as white as jade, she was either the sister of the demure goddess of the sea, Thetis, or the chaste and graceful nymph who lived in the deep waters, if it was not for the delicate muse who dived from Helikon, or the great beauty Persephone who swam along the deep pool! Could it be that Kronos castrated his father with a stone sickle again, and gave birth to a second Aphrodite from the white spray of Cyprus!?

Little Dionysus wiped away the child's tears with his little lotus root, spread his wings and flew to the goddess, and asked sadly and anxiously, "Beautiful goddess, have you ever seen my mother?" ”

Encore, who was forced by the situation to transform, sighed softly, and guilt filled his heart: "Poor child, I'm not your mother, I'm Hera. ”

Dionysus heard her voice, and the answer was a bolt from the blue for him, and the shock stirred his heart. The hatred that sleeps in the depths of the soul surges out, and breaks the sand barrier of love. He frowned tightly, and large tears welled up in his eyes. The deep sorrow fell on the young baby, and he felt that all hope was lost, and there was no hope for life.

Dionysus wiped tears from his eyes with his hands, raised his head, and said to the heavens: "O tireless Moirai! You are notoriously cruel! You turn that ancient thread of fate for a week, and the poor fetus will endure nine months of darkness in its mother's womb! If you turn that heavy thread of fate for another week, the unfortunate baby will be born on a desert island with no relatives! If I ever felt that Crasthis, the goddess of fate, was merciful at any point, it must have been Apat, the goddess of lies, who deceived me when I was young! At this moment, my heart is like Laocoon, who is struggling in pain and suffering surrounded by the serpent of fate, and my heart is like a huge wave, and the cries of Icarus with broken wings echo day and night! Sweet wine can make me forget my sorrows, but it cannot cure my miserable life, and the green ivy, which I proudly hold on top of my high head, will follow me without hesitation, wilting and withering! How many starless and moonless nights will my Father, sitting majestically on the glittering golden temple, weep to himself! My poor Father, please leave this broken heart no more, for it will be the best comfort for your son! Because Hera has smashed his body and mind with a brilliant scheme, he will no longer have the slightest illusion about the cruel Moirae! ”

At this moment, Enke felt extremely uncomfortable, and wanted to step forward to hug him but couldn't stretch out his hands to him anymore. After Dionysus said these words, he recited a spell, and many ivy grew out of thin air on the surface of the water, and the vines instantly wrapped Encore tightly from head to toe, and even the struggle was saved, and then he put the spell away, and the ivy suddenly retracted back into the water, and the huge inertia brought Encore into the water, and was eaten by the whirlpool in the blink of an eye, and then, the painful Dionysus also plunged into the whirlpool, and the little wings didn't even flutter, and the whole person disappeared!

When the rumor of Dionysus falling into the hands of Hera reached the ears of Zeus, the whole of Olympus was thrown into chaos. Hermes's inspection could not be said to be fruitless, he had already heard that there was a mother and son in the Peotia region who had been killed by the king for disaster relief, and he had also personally inspected the sky above the Marsh of Rena, the only passage between the human world and Hades, but the clue was broken here again after a step of delay. The panicked Hermes reported all the inspections to Zeus in order to alleviate his guilt, but it still failed to alleviate Zeus's thunderous anger, and the sleek god Hermes was scolded for his incompetence for the first time, but this burst of thunder just split the nine thousand feet of frozen clouds, and the sky finally revealed the sun, the goddess of spring, Tarot, let the frost and snow melt into glaciers and flow to the fields to moisten the soil, the goddess of grains Demeter continued to sow seeds for the earth, and the goddess of summer, Okeso, let insects reproduce for a qiē flowers and trees to pollinate, The goddess of autumn, Calpo, turned the green seedlings into yellow, orange, and heavy ears of wheat, and the scene of the rest of her life after the catastrophe appeared to be even more prosperous, and the order of the heavenly realm was temporarily stabilized.

However, Zeus, who was eager to save his son, sat in the clouds and looked down on the world with the clairvoyance of God, but found no clues! Even Hera was nowhere to be seen! Could it be that the hypocritical Hera swallowed the infant baby in revenge for him? Could it be that the unwilling Hera hid young Dionysus in order to lure him?

The scepter-wielding cloud gatherer began to call the shots again: "O lazy clouds, who is more carefree than you in the supreme heavenly realm!" Even Aerys had to spend his days delivering news to me and my subjects, let alone Hermes, and the dead would never have been able to reach Hades without his guidance;! Helios travels all day in a broken chariot drawn by four firehorses, and he doesn't even have the time to fix the wheels! The sound of the skilled craftsman Hephaestus smashing iron was always accompanied

The angry god-king's unceremonious judgment made the praised gods not feel much honored, and the gods who did it were even more embarrassed. After the grief, Zeus has already understood everyone's mind, but he cannot see Hera's transformation. It can only be said that he is really ...... Discerning.

The embarrassed clouds hurriedly got up from their covers, their hair disheveled, their yawning mouths, and they gathered together in a daze, both white and gray, and flew towards the sacred mountain of Olympus, where the "rabble" rubbed the edges and corners of the mountain day and night with their fat bellies.

The restless god-king repeatedly poked the ground with his golden scepter that shook the universe, and the exhortation of the gods could not temporarily reassure him: "No, this method is too slow!" I must go to the Nether Realm myself! I'm going to dig up every inch of the land and drain all the seawater! ”

Hades and Poseidon, the god of the sea, heard such a threat and hurriedly ordered the search for Dionysus in their own territory, but unfortunately Dionysus was now neither in the underworld nor in the sea. I don't know how Zeus waited for the clouds to smooth the edge of the mountain according to his patience, when he stood on the top of the flat holy mountain and looked down on the world anxiously, a hundred days had passed on the earth, and the dazed Encore and Dionysus fell one after another into the mire of the underworld, which belonged neither to Hades nor to the sea, but strictly speaking, it was the territory of Zeus, but God made Hermes more familiar with this path than his father, and after a rigorous reasoning, The deceitful Hermes concluded that Peotia's slain mother and son were Hera and Dionysus, and that he, as the god-king's right-hand man, had neither sought for them nor told the truth, and the self-evident intentions of the patron saints of thieves and liars were well understood.

However, how wise the god-king Zeus was, what kind of intentions could escape his sharp eyes, the supreme of the universe left his majestic body on the golden chair of the sacred mountain of Olympus, but his soul turned into a small wisp of water vapor and landed imperceptibly on the earth, this wisp of water vapor encountered the cold air in the process of descent and gradually appeared in human form, before the landing, Zeus had turned into a beautiful prince. He had long hair as bright as gold, eyes as clear as sapphires, his skin like that of a girl, and his body soft and not weak, and he resembled many similarities to his own son more than a juvenile version of Dionysus. He has an unbelievable surname, Amenes. This strange surname resembles both the royal family of Medea in Asia Minor and the Thracian nobles of Europa, with both inextricable blood and the umbilical cord of the Holy Family of Thebecadmus. He traveled through the vast flat territories of Asia Minor under the guise of finding his wife and children, and this clever surname played no small role in making the tyrants and elders of the great city-states of these places dare not slacken.

The story begins when a fire burns down his royal palace, and he is separated from his young wife and newborn baby, who has not had time to choose a name, and his wife may well have concealed her real surname to avoid trouble on the way. But just by looking at his otherworldly beauty, it is not difficult to think of his infant son and the hard-working young woman who deliberately disguised himself as an old woman. He plays an anxious father and a heartbroken husband who travels all the way to Macedonia along the escape route of the Thebai refugees.

When he came to the region of Peotia, the name of his search for his wife and children had already spread far and wide, and the story of the weak-hearted king of Cataeon ordering the whole country to bury the mother and son of the chief priest was self-defeating, and all the accounts were miraculously unified here, and the shrewd Zeus decided to investigate the place in detail
