Helen smiled, leaned her head into Theseus's bosom, and said, "The robber must not have chopped you in two, or you would have been a disabled person to-day." ”

……

Theseus pretended to shake and fell into the robber's arms, quickly snatched the knife from the robber's hand, and directly snapped the robber's neck. Then see that there is no one else in the room, bolt the front and back doors, and sleep. The next morning I got up and went on my way. Along the way, he killed a lot of huge man-eating beasts, and the male and female reproductive organs of the lion tiger were cut off and brought on, which is a testimony of the hero.

When he arrived in Athens, he was confronted by a group of usurpers of the king's throne, and they fought all the way to the king's palace, and Theseus fell into the middle of the bandits of the state. The usurper of the throne did not know where the hero in front of him came from, and one of them asked, "Isn't this strong man a native when he hears his voice?" ”

Theseus, covered in blood and carrying a number of behemoths, knew that he was a stranger who had come by land. With machetes in their hands and swords at their belts, the robbers who usurped the throne thought that when they saw their accomplices and saw that Theseus was burly, they all had the taste of making Theseus their leader.

"If this strong man also came to usurp the throne, please be our head, and after entering the city of Athens and killing the old king, he will make you king, what does the strong man think?" That's what a person with status in this said.

"If you mighty men agree to make me your head, then I will tell you the truth, and do not conquer the city of Athens until I have entered the city and convinced my father, and then you will be on an errand under me, and then you will rule the kingdom prosperously. But before I confess my father, you will wait quietly outside the city for a few days, I am my father's wild seed, and the king met my mother on a long journey, sixteen years ago. Now I will go into the city to confess him, and if you do not retreat, my father, the king, will consider me to be a usurper of the throne. Theseus said.

The bandits, who wanted to usurp the throne, listened to Theseus's words, and all looked at each other, because they saw that this person had the demeanor of a king. No one dared to say anything unfavorable to Theseus first, which caused the change from silence to acquiescence, and finally they all dispersed automatically.

Theseus was alone outside the gates of Athens, and a small soldier went to report to the king, "Your Majesty." The rebels outside the city were gone, and only a passer-by from a foreign country said that he had something to see the king. ”

"What does this person look like and what weapon does he have?" Said King Aegeus of Athens.

"There was a machete in his hand, and his face was covered with blood, so that people couldn't see what it looked like. It can only be seen that he is a tall and burly strong man. The little soldier said.

"Your Majesty," whispered Medea, the last wife of the king of Athens, "for fear of being a bad person, you must guard against ......."

Medea was a woman of divine magic, a woman she acquired after Aegeus returned from a long journey, and bore Aegeus a son. She used magic to calculate that this stranger was the seed planted by Aegeus when she traveled far away, and in order to prevent the throne of her son from being squeezed out by this stranger, she asked Aegeus to poison the comer, deliberately saying that the comer was a bad person.

In the morning the king received the stranger, for he was in the midst of a rebellious time. King Aegeus also thought of letting the stranger into the city to see, if he could be poisoned, then even if the stranger was sent to death, no wonder who. But when the king saw this stranger who was too unusual, the king and the man who claimed to be from a foreign country seemed to see through each other's hearts with all four eyes, and a sense of awe arose.

However, Medea saw Aegeus's thoughts on the side, and was afraid that after a long time, the father and son would recognize each other, and the plan to poison Theseus would be in vain. So the servant quickly brought the poisoned wine up and said to Theseus, "Please drink this cup of wine." ”

"Thank you, ma'am." Theseus took the wine in his hand and did not immediately drink it all. Instead, he put the wine glass on the table first, and for the sake of how many giant beasts Xianyao had killed along the way, he untied the lion whip and tiger B wrapped in the lion skin, as well as the sword at his waist.

Aegeus saw the sword. Suddenly, he felt a sigh in his heart, and asked the young man, "Where did the strong man come from, and what is his family background?" ”

"I am from the ...... of Troy," said Theseus, who reached out and drank the poisoned wine.

Aegeus looked at the young man's sword, heard the strong man say it was from Troy, and looked down at the stumbling shoes on the young man's feet. After seeing the sword and sandals, I was sure that this was the token I left behind. When I looked up again, I saw that the young man was holding a wine glass to his lips.

There's nothing you can do to stop it. Aegeus could only use the Divine Palm, and Theseus only took half a step back, but the poisoned wine in his hand still did not scatter a drop in the wine glass.

"It's a poisoned wine." Aegeus's mouth was not fast, and before he could finish speaking, he put his hand on the cup of poisoned wine.

"Your grandfather is the king?" Egers said.

"Yes!" Theseus said.

"Your mother is Etra?" Eges asked again.

"Yes!" Theseus said truthfully.

"Where did you get your sword and sandals?" Aegeus is making the final test.

"It was my mother who took me under a boulder behind a hill to get it."

"Did you move the boulder with your own strength?" Aegeus seemed to be standing beside this boulder, and his divine power was indeed passed on by his son.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Theseus said.

"Didn't your mother tell you at parting that your father was the king of Athens?" Aegeus said excitedly.

"Yes, but I don't want you to know that I am your son without mental preparation, which will make you look down on me, as if I am a wild seed that you are happy for a while when you travel far away, ordinary as an ordinary person." Theseus said.

"My son!" Aegeus threw the cup of poisoned wine to the ground with his hand that had covered it.

"Daddy!" Theseus also replied to Aegeus, this is recognition and commitment, there are only two words, and the meaning is too heavenly.

"Is your mother okay? And grandpa. ......" Aegeus was already crying silently, and his wife, who was as beautiful as a flower, was afraid that she was already old, and she was lonely, although she had a husband and a son.

"They're all still alive......" Theseus cried, thinking of the parting with her mother and her grandfather's old face.

Medea sat at the foot of the wall and curled up into a half-starved dog, with two big round eyes, seeing that the father and son recognized each other, her evil heart was swollen and empty.

"Medea, you very vicious and wicked woman, almost killed my heroic son, I beheaded you......" As he spoke, he was about to pull out his own sword worn by his son Theseus's waist, and kill this cicada B with a sword.

"Father, slow down, why don't you ask her intentions, you kill her with a sword, and there will be endless troubles hidden in it." Theseus said.

After hearing his son's words, King Aegeus felt that his son was right, so he called Medea to sit down at the table and said, "Medea, tell me why you want to poison my son with poisoned wine, and if you hide the truth, it will not be too late for me to cut off your son's head." ”

"Back to my lord," Medea peeked at the father and son and continued, "I used magic to calculate that this stranger is the seed of your momentary happiness when you traveled far away. When he came to the gate of the city wall, I saw that he was a burly man, which showed that he was a fierce general. But then he saw that he used his wisdom to disperse the rebels who had come to attack the city and plunder the pool. Soon I thought of a son I had borne to you, and without him, the son I would have born would be the next king of Athens.

Now my son is guarding the borders of Athens, he is already fifteen years old, although both of them are the sons of your majesty, but I think that my own son is a king, this is also a normal heart, sir? That's why I'm going to poison your King's Majesty's eldest son with a trick, if you want to kill it, you have to scrape the old man to watch it, right?

If the old man can spare the concubine from dying, the concubine can return to the old father and spend the rest of her life with the old father. If the old man kills the concubine, my old father is already old and old, and there is no one to take care of him at this time, and he is afraid that he will die on the street in the outcast, and he will be buried in the belly of a hungry dog. ”

"Father, what Auntie said is the truth, and it is also the heart of an ordinary woman, so you can spare her. If she can't stay in the palace, let her go back to her father, and let her take care of her elderly father, okay? Theseus said.

"I'm afraid that if this goods are released, there will be a recurrence of disasters, and I can't prevent it." Aegeus said worriedly.

"Master, when did the concubine do anything hurtful by your side, isn't this because my son wants to be the next king? Now that it's been said clearly, what else can I implicate the master in addition to this matter. When I leave the borders of Athens, will I come back, my father's family is also a king...... "This thing is from a princess, only in the palace, and was expelled from the house by his brother in anger.

……

But this is also a party to the word, it is her brother who intends to drive her away, because this thing has magic skills, she is there, her brother wants to be the king without waiting for his father's death, and his sister's magic will expose his conspiracy, so my brother used her to say that she was disordered.

When she returned to her father, the father had really been kicked out of the palace by his son, and was collecting floating wood under the moat and living a straw hut life. When the father saw his daughter, he explained everything, and Medea hid the old father under her armpit by magic and brought her into the palace to meet her brother, saying that she had brought a foreign treasure to give to her brother the king, and when the brother came down from the king's throne to see the treasure, Medea took the opportunity to sit her father back on the throne where he had once sit. Seeing this, the elder brother could only give up, and quickly knelt down to admit his mistake to his father and ask his sister for forgiveness. (To be continued.) )
