Chapter 367: 204 The Big Wedding (2)
Hermes listened to Zeus's command to report to the gods, and immediately agreed. Just as he was leaving, he suddenly thought of a very strict question, and hurriedly said, "God King, will those gods of the Hades and Night God families also participate?"
The god of the underworld is related to death, which is very unlucky, needless to say. There are many gods born to the goddess of the night, but unfortunately most of them have negative effects, such as Eris, the goddess of discord, Apate, the goddess of deception, Danadus, the god of death, and Hypnos, the god of sleep, etc. As long as there is a party they attend, there is a good chance that it will be a mess.
Zeus thought for a moment that there was no need to make them unhappy on the day of great joy, so he said, "Forget about them, the other gods will inform them." ”
Seeing that everything was settled, Athena came to Zeus and begged, "Father, it's time for you to let Thetis go, right?" Don't worry, I promise she won't run away." ”
Zeus raised his hand and shook it, instantly put Thetis next to Athena, and sneered: "It doesn't matter if she escapes, anyway, as long as she escapes, I will kill all her brothers and sisters, and even your broken cave mansion will be destroyed for you." ”
Excellence was imprisoned in the eyes of the sea, Thetis was going to marry someone else, and that nasty Hercules also offended Zeus, Hera was now very proud, and she had never been so comfortable. It's just that he was happy and sad, and he was smiling happily, and he heard Zeus say: "Queen of heaven, Peleus is probably too busy over there alone, why don't you go over and help him prepare for the wedding?
"Ha~!" The gods all covered their mouths and laughed secretly when they heard this, they really didn't expect Zeus to be so disgusted, and the little god of love, Eros, was even more happy to flap a pair of wings and fly in the air.
Hera's face turned white with anger in an instant, and she shouted, "You... You're going too far, you're going to let me, a dignified diva, go and prepare a wedding for a human and a little sea nymph?"
Zeus's face sank, and he said coldly: "What, you're not happy?"
"Willingly, I'm glad I am!" Hera's nose was almost out of breath, she knew that Zeus was still in trouble, and she was looking for trouble, so she really didn't want to ask for trouble, and immediately flew in the direction of Phthia.
Zeus drove out the other gods, looked at Thetis and smiled: "Thetis, I'm happy enough, right? Not to mention marrying you to a great hero, let Hera decorate a new house for you, and let the gods come to congratulate you." ”
Thetis looked a little reluctant, bowed and smiled: "Thank you God King, I will definitely give birth to a great-grandson for you in the coming year." ”
Zeus thought that he had sealed excellence in the eyes of the sea, and forcibly married Thetis to someone else, she would cry with herself endlessly, but she didn't expect Thetis to resist at all, and she was stunned immediately. It took a while before he said, "Yetis, don't you hate me?"
"Just like you said, not only did you find me a wishful husband, but you also asked the queen to decorate a new house for me, and let the gods come to congratulate me, why should I hate you?" said Thetis laughed.
Where would Zeus believe her words, and simply revealed: "But I sealed the man you like in the eyes of the sea, and I will never be able to get out of the eyes of the sea." ”
"That's how he meant it, why should I weep for my fate!" said Thetis.
"No, you must still be thinking about that kid and thinking that he will escape from the eye of the sea. Zeus's heart suddenly moved, and he sneered, "I'm right, Yetis?"
Instead of answering his question, Thetis mocked: "You have sealed that sea eye, how can he escape, are you too unconfident in yourself, or too confident in him?"
"Hehe, whether he can escape or not, it has nothing to do with you, because your memory will never have an outstanding person. Zeus was jealous, raised his hand and grabbed Thetis in his hand, and sneered: "I will erase all your memories of the past ten years, and then let you fall in love with Peleus with all your heart, that kid can come out, and it will only be painful to see his brother marry his own woman." ”
Thetis trembled in her heart and sneered, "This is what you, the king of the gods, do?"
"A woman that I Zeus can't get, he can never think of. You will die of this heart, and honestly give birth to a powerful great-grandson for me!"
Zeus sneered and spread his hands, and immediately began casting a spell to cleanse Thetis's consciousness of the memories.
==========
Deep in the Dark Forest, most of the members of the Night God family gather to vent their frustration with their mother, the goddess of the night, Nyx.
"Mother, the god-king invited the gods of the world to the wedding of Peleus and Thetis, but we of the night god family did not get a single invitation, and there is no one in Theti's eyes, so we must teach them a lesson this time. Danadus, the god of death, shouted.
"It's just that they don't take us seriously. The other gods are also gossiping.
Nyx nodded, but when asked what they had in mind, none of the group's jumbled opinions worked. Finally, the goddess Eris said, "Let me go, I will cause the gods to quarrel and let them fight in their own nests, and they will not find us." ”
"Is there a good idea?" said Nyx.
"It would be better to have something that will appeal to the gods, so I can get my hands on it. Eris thought for a moment.
Nyx smiled when he heard this: "Okay, I'll go get you what you want, and by the way, go and see my old sister, she has always liked to be lively, how can this kind of lively occasion be without her." ”
Ten days passed quickly, and the gods did not dare to disobey the will of Zeus, and they all obediently attended the wedding of Peleus and Thetis. The Poseidon family was no exception, not only Neros, the old man, attended, but also the ocean god Okeanos and the sea emperor Poseidon came to congratulate in person.
The gods of heaven and earth participated, and the people flocked to the world, and the kings and city lords of all the states of Greece and Asia Minor came to congratulate them, and the gods and men celebrated their wedding in Phthia.
In the middle of the wedding, the goddess Eris was not invited, she took out a golden apple in public and put it on the table, and said with a smile: "I will not give a congratulatory gift, lest you say that what I have given is unlucky, I will give this golden apple to the most beautiful goddess among the gods!"
Although the gods knew that she had bad intentions, they were still inevitably quarrelsome.
The golden apple belonged to Hera, and besides, she had always regarded herself as beautiful, and of course she felt that it was what she deserved. Aphrodite is the goddess of love and beauty, praised by the gods of heaven and earth as the most perfect woman, regardless of anything else, how to be willing to give this title to Hera, so immediately a dispute arose.
Hera's eyes were on Aphrodite, and if she continued like this, she would definitely be overwhelmed by the woman she hated, and immediately pulled Athena in. Athena was dissatisfied with this marriage, and also took the opportunity to join in and prepare to muddy the waters, so the situation changed from a one-to-one duel to a three-kingdom hegemony.
The three goddesses quarreled endlessly over who should get this golden apple, so they let the gods judge, and the gods who didn't know that this was a thankless errand were all speechless and pretended not to see. When the three gods saw it, they brought the lawsuit to Zeus.
Zeus did not know the difficulty of the problem and immediately refused to be the referee. At last, seeing that the wedding feast was going to be unhappy if it went on like this, he pointed to the southeast with his hand, and said that there was a Mount Ida in the north of the city of Troy, where there was a five-year-old sheep herding baby, and he had no distractions, and his words must come from his heart, so go to him and make a ruling!
The three goddesses immediately flew southeast with the golden apple.
When Zeus saw them leave, he thought that this time it was finally quiet, but he didn't expect two more living ancestors to come. This time it's really an ancestor, because the first god-king Ouranos and the Earth Mother Gaia are here.
The two great gods and the gods met, came to a couple and said a few words of blessing, and finally Gaia said that my wife didn't know that you were getting married today, and she was completely in time, so she didn't prepare any gifts. I'm going to cast a spell on you to keep you safe from those evil magic!
Zeus originally wanted to find an opportunity to do something small like possession on Peleus, knowing that Gaia's wishful thinking would be in vain if he cast a spell. Just as he was about to get up and speak, Ouranos grabbed his hand and smiled: "Good grandson, your grandmother loves your grandson and granddaughter-in-law so much, you won't object to being a grandfather, right?"
Zeus couldn't say whether he was suffering, and when he saw that the gods were looking at him, he had no choice but to agree. Seeing the old lady casting spells over there, knowing that there was nothing he could do in the future, he began to drink sullenly in a depressed state.
There was a lot of noise here, and the little shepherd over there also saw the three goddesses unexpectedly, but how did he, a five-year-old child, know which of the three goddesses was beautiful, and was shocked by their divine might, and he didn't say a word for a long time.
At this time, the proud Hera was the first to say: "I am Hera, the queen of heaven, the wife of Zeus." If you judge me to be the most beautiful in the world, you will rule over the richest nation on earth and become the noblest man on earth. ”
The little shepherd looked at her stupidly, and did not say anything at all.
"I am Pallas Athena, the goddess of wisdom. Athena said, "If you judge me to be the most beautiful, then you will receive supreme wisdom and become the wisest person in the world." ”
The sheep herding baby still didn't say anything, just looked at her with a demented face.
"Good boy, don't be tempted by those sweet words, those promises are unreliable. Aphrodite smiled indifferently, winked at her talking eyes and smiled, "What are you doing herding sheep, little brother?"
Seeing that she was not aggressive, the little shepherd gave people the feeling of a big sister, and couldn't help but say boldly: "Sell for money!"
"Why sell for money?"
"My father said that when the sheep grows up, sell it for money, and then find me a beautiful daughter-in-law!"
"And what kind of daughter-in-law do you want to marry?" Aphrodite seduced.
How did the little shepherd know what kind of woman was good, and when he saw that Aphrodite looked pleasing to the eye, he was very gentle, and pointed at her and said, "Just marry... Just marry such a beautiful daughter-in-law as you. ”
"You see a sheep herder who knows she's cheap!" Hera laughed as she pointed to the little shepherd.
Athena glanced at her and sneered: "If you still laugh, you won't be able to laugh after a while!"
Aphrodite ignored them both and continued to say to the little shepherd, "How about if you judge me to be the most beautiful, and when you grow up, I will let you marry the most beautiful woman in the world?"
"Sister, you are the most beautiful, unlike the two of them, you are so fierce, I am scared when I look at it!" the little guy still had palpitations, and whispered to Aphrodite.
"Damn bastard, you're going to pay for today's choice. When Hera saw that this sheep herder had chosen Aphrodite, she couldn't help but be furious, scolded and turned around and flew towards the divine realm.
