Chapter 45: It's Your Cousin
Looking at the back of Thetis leaving, Macaon suddenly looked at Peleus with envy, "I heard that among the daughters of Nereus, the old man of the sea, Lady Thetis is the most virtuous one, I didn't believe it before, but now it seems to be true." ”
"What's so virtuous about this? "You haven't seen her tear down the house yet!" Peleus added secretly in his heart, and suddenly saw everyone staring at him, and couldn't help but wonder, "Do you think so too?"
"Yes!" everyone nodded in unison.
Thetis, who seemed to have gone far, put down her ears that had been pricked up for a long time, and a smile appeared on her face. Men, in front of outsiders, you have to give him some face.
"Mom, what are you laughing at?" Su Muran looked at her mother and said strangely.
"It's nothing, Achilles, Mom forgot to take the barbecue, you go and help Mom get it. ”
"Uh, you want me to go again?"
"Exercise. ”
......
When Su Muran was panting and carrying a large bag of barbecue meat much larger than him, Peleus and Macaon were already eating shabu mutton at home, and Thetis was smiling and sitting next to Peleus.
"It's delicious!"
"The Queen's cooking skills are too high!"
"Our King is so blessed!"
"The Queen is truly the most virtuous woman!"
......
The praise could not be stopped, and Thetis accepted all the praise with a smile, she did not feel embarrassed.
"Mom, I got the meat back. Putting the meat into the kitchen, Su Muran said weakly, he felt that he was too tired today.
"His Royal Highness the Prince is amazing!"
"Born with divine power!"
"Worthy of being a descendant of the gods!"
......
Another round of meaningless touting, Su Muran said that he was immune.
"Achilles, come to Daddy. Pelius beckoned to Su Muran, and then asked Thetis, "Thetis, why do you want so much barbecue?"
"Aren't there other chiefs coming? Thetis replied with a smile, drawing another round of praise.
"The queen is so kind!"
"You've been so good to us!"
......
Yetise didn't say anything, and Macaon couldn't sit still. He didn't expect that the various leaders who were usually considered heroes and heroes would be the same as Shi Lezhi in front of Thetis today, which made him really blush a little.
"Go out first, I have something to say to His Majesty!"
When the chieftains saw that Macaon had spoken, Peleus had no objection, so they got up and went out.
"I'm sorry to make you laugh. Macaon said to Thetis, knowing exactly why the group was like this.
At first, she was afraid to approach because she was afraid, but then Thetis showed such gentleness and kindness that she immediately caught up with her.
Because Thetis is so beautiful! All men lose their minds in the presence of beautiful women.
"It doesn't matter. Thetis smiled and shook her head, and then said to Peleus, "Since you have something to discuss, then I will go in first." ”
"Sit here and listen, Thetis, what is there to hide between us husband and wife?" said Peleus, who reached out and took Thetis, who had already stood up, and made her sit down beside him again.
"Yes, Your Majesty, it's not something to hide from you. The gray-haired Macaon also hurriedly helped. He could face Peleus as a king with poise, but he could not face Theses with the same mentality.
Unlike the hairy boys in his eyes, he was full of reverence for the gods from a young age, and he would not do anything that might cause Thetiss to misunderstand.
Peleus was about to say something to Makaan, when he saw that Su Muran was still sitting at the table, he immediately said to him: "Achilles, adults want to talk about some business, you go to the room first." ”
Heh! Su Muran glanced at Pelius dissatisfiedly, just now my mother said that she wanted to leave you and keep her, but now I didn't say that you would drive me away!
Cheap Daddy Rating - 1. Su Muran reached out and picked up a piece of barbecue meat and stuffed it into the corner of his mouth, and then went into the house to play with the little lion.
......
"So, everyone thinks that the capital of Serili should be founded in Thesalia?" Peleus frowned and confirmed the result again.
"Yes, Peleus. Macaon replied: "Thessalya has the most significant advantage over the rest of Selili. Situated on the plains, Sesalia has the largest population and the most extensive land suitable for building a city, which is the most important if you want to build a large city-state. ”
Originally, Peleus did not want to leave the village where he had lived for many years, and his original intention was to build a city here, but the words "big city-state" by Macaon struck him.
Every man wants his country to be strong and never be bullied. What's more, as the founder of a nation, Peleus's idea is even stronger.
"Well, it's in Thesalia. Peleus made up his mind, and he knew that there was no better place in all of Mirmidon than Cessalya to build a city-state.
"Then I'll go tell the chiefs first. With that, Macaon stood up, saluted the Peleus, and walked out.
"Thetis, it looks like we're moving. Peleus put his arm around Thetis's shoulder and said apologetically. Since Theses married her, she has not been allowed to live a peaceful life.
"Peleus, in my eyes, the place where you and Achilles are home is home. Thetis leaned on Peleus's shoulder and said softly, "You know I never cared about such troubles. ”
"Thank you, Thetis. Peleus hugged Thetis hard and let go, "It seems necessary for us to tell our son about this." ”
Thetis stood up knowingly, "Wait, I'll go get him out." ”
When Su Muran came out with the little lion in his arms, Peleus's eyes immediately lit up, and he stretched out his arms directly to him.
Daddy, are you going to hug me? No, I refuse!
Su Muran was about to think of a reason to refuse Peleus's hug, when he found that Peleus's hands had reached out in front of him......
Further on......
Hugged ......
Lion Cub?!!
"What a sweet little fellow!" Peleus loved the sleeping lion cub, and only then would it be quiet.
Well, it seems that I was making myself amorous.
Su Muran wiped the three black lines on his forehead, "Dad, is there anything you called me to do?"
"Wait a minute, let me see this little guy first. Peleus took the lion cub and looked at it a few times, and then suddenly made the same gesture that little Pat had done, and opened the blanket to see its ass.
"Oh, don't look at it, it's male. Su Muran was really helpless, why was everyone full of interest in the gender of the little lion, and even the previous Macaon had secretly glanced at it a few times.
Peleus blushed, put the little lion on the table, coughed, and said solemnly: "Achilles, Dad has something to tell you, we are moving." ”
Uproot?
"Dad, we live here well, why do we want to move?" Su Muran said strangely. To be honest, he was a little resistant, after all, he had lived here for more than half a year, why did he suddenly have to move out?
"Because by the resolution of the village and tribal leaders, our capital of Selili will be established in Thessalia, so we must go to Thessalia. ”
"Oh. Su Muran suddenly understood.
The city-states of this world are all centered on a large city, surrounded by some villages, whether military, political, or people's livelihood are carried out by this big city, and a country without a city is hardly a country.
Because without a city it is impossible to form an effective defensive system, and the branches and fences outside the village cannot prevent the charge of the enemy's chariots.
"Shall we leave now?" Su Muran was suddenly a little reluctant to this simple stone house, the small courtyard outside the door, the mountain behind the house, and the small river at the entrance of the village.
"There is no such hurry, first of all, we must finish the sacrifice first, and then we will set off when spring comes. ”
There are still ten days to say this, Su Muran nodded, but he suddenly thought of another question.
"Dad, what about the family's land and pasture?"
Pelius thought for a moment, "This dad will hire someone to take care of it, you don't have to worry, let's get ready first." ”
......
The next day was dedicated to Apollo, the god of the sun.
He was supposed to sacrifice to the sun god Helios of the previous generation, but after his son Phaethon made a great mistake, the gods thought he was unjust. So Zeus ordered that Apollo drive the chariot of the sun every big sacrificial month, and that it was Helios' turn to do the small sacrificial moon.
Therefore, people now worship the sun god as a sacrifice to Apollo. Just like when people sacrificed to the god of the sea, they first sacrificed to Pontus, later changed to Okeanos, and now worship Poseidon.
However, the priest of the presiding priest was changed, and instead of Peleus, he was replaced by Macaon. It is said that he was the most respected of the men over fifty years of age in Milmidon, not only because he was the leader of the largest tribe in the whole of Mirmidon, but also because he was a doctor who treated countless patients.
What's more, I heard that he had a special relationship with Apollo, so Peleus simply asked him to fight for him.
"Dad, is it true that I heard that the leader of Makhaon has a relationship with the sun god Apollo?" Su Muran looked at Peleus, who was now particularly interested in all those who had anything to do with the gods.
"Actually, judging from the seniority......" Hearing Su Muran's words, Pelius showed a strange smile on his face, "In terms of seniority, Makaon and you are still cousins." ”
No way!
Su Muran looked at Makaang, who was kneeling in front of the altar with words in his mouth, this old man who looked like he was in his fifties was actually his brother?
"You can't be mistaken, right?" Su Muran looked at Pelius with wide eyes, simply ...... Unbelievable!
