Chapter 74: The Fox Who Will Never Be Caught (2)

It turned out that when Zeus was pursuing Europa, he was disturbed by Hera many times, and Europa was even turned into a cow and almost didn't change back. Zeus knew that Hera was jealous, and he would definitely attack Europa in the future, so he left three things to protect him on the island of Crete, where Europa lived. The three things are: the Bronze Giant, the Javelin, and the Hound.

The Bronze Giant is said to be hundreds of meters tall and terrifying, tirelessly patrolling Crete every day to prevent enemy attacks on Crete, the javelin is said to be capable of hitting every shot, and the hound is said to have a sharp nose, and Zeus is said to have promised him that he would never fail in his hunt.

Thetis said: "The '100 shots' and 'never fail' are Zeus' promises, and I think that if we can find either of the javelin and the hound, we will be able to catch this fox." ”

Zhuo Zhuo said depressedly: "We don't know people, how could Minos lend us willingly, I don't think it's easy." ”

Zhuo Yan was unhappy when he heard this, and raised his little hand and said loudly: "Isn't it just a fox, I'll catch it for you when I turn around." ”

All three of them laughed.

Amphigris thought for a while, and said with a solemn expression: "Let's go to Crete to borrow it first, if it doesn't work, I have to grab one and come back, I'm fed up with this damn fox." ”

Thetis said, "Let's go together, we may be able to help." ”

Amphigris laughed and said, "Brother and sister, if you don't want to go, I have to trick you, and I still expect you to give me ideas!"

Thetis was overjoyed by his younger siblings, and was happily turning her head to look at the bitter expression on her face, and wondered, "What's the matter, you don't want to?"

Zhuo Zhuo glanced at the two of them, and said with a wry smile: "You know about me and my stepmother Phaedra, Phaedra is the daughter of Minos, it is estimated that he has long hated me, and he probably won't borrow it when he sees me if he can borrow it." ”

When Amphiglis heard this, he was frowning, but Thetis smiled and said: "You think too much, how can Minos know about the relationship between you and your eldest brother, and when the time comes, you won't show up?"

"Brother and sister are smart, compared to you, the two of us are pig's heads. ”

Amphiglis slapped his ass, and the excellence made him almost faint when he spoke, and when did he say that this guy was so good at talking?

The four of them walked forward for a while, and the group did not catch up with the fox, and they all sat there with their heads bowed in front of them. Amphiglis called a man about his age to come over and get to know the two of them, and the first introduction turned out to be his brother Iphicles.

As soon as Iphicles heard that Amphiglis was going to borrow some javelins and divine dogs, he immediately burst into laughter.

The three of them were all inexplicable, Amphigris pulled his arm, and Iphicles stopped laughing and looked at the three of them: "Brother, as the so-called far away in the sky, close in front of you, this is ready to be ready-made, why do you still go to Crete!"

"Where, where?" said Amphiglis, who immediately became excited.

Iphicles laughed and said, "O Athens!"

Excellence had memories of the little virgin Hippolytus in his mind, but there were no of these things in it, so he wondered, "No, I'm from Athens, I didn't hear that there was something we were looking for?"

Iphicles smiled and said, "Brother Excellence, since you are from Athens, you should know about the Kefaros family, right? This is not a glorious thing for their family, of course, the less people know about it, the better, if it is not for chance, I don't know about it." ”

The Kefaros family is one of the largest families in Athens, and legend has it that the ancestor was the god Hermes, and the current head of the family, Kefaros and Theseus are very close, and Excellence knows them from the memory of the little virgin, so he nodded.

Only then did Iphicles say what was going on.

It turned out that Kefaros was merry and happy outside, but he annoyed the tigress at home, and his wife was not a fuel-efficient lamp, so she was angry and said to fuck your mother, you were merry outside, let the old lady stay at home and be widowed, and your aunt and grandmother also gave you a green hat, so she ran away from home to find her old lover.

Her old lover was none other than Minos, the king of Crete, and Kefaros later went to Crete to apologize in person, and then brought him back. When he returned, I don't know if Minos felt sorry for his lover, or if Kefaros took revenge, so he brought one of Minos's dogs, the hound that 'hunted for it'.

After hearing this, the three of them were overjoyed, and Iphicles said: "Big brother, isn't Theseus your senior brother, we directly asked him for help, and he just borrowed it, I believe there should be no problem." ”

Amphiglis's depressed mood was swept away, and he laughed and said, "Yes, although I don't have much contact with Theseus, I believe he will still sell this face." Brother, aren't you from Athens, you have to do your best to be a landlord!"

Zhuo Zhuo couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, he didn't want to go back to Athens again, but it seemed that he couldn't hide this time, and he said that instead of meeting and exposing it at that time, it would be better to say it now. So he said: "Big brother, I hid something from you before, now say it, don't be angry." ”

Amphigris laughed and said: "You are my brother, you must have your own reason for not saying it, what am I angry about." ”

"Big brother, have you heard of Hippolytus?" said Excellence.

Amphigris was stunned for a moment and said, "Son of Theseus, didn't he die last year?"

Excellence smiled bitterly and pointed at himself, "I am the guy who died last year, and was later revived by the god of medicine, Asclepios. Zeus was furious when he found out and killed the god of medicine directly, and I escaped by luck and did not dare to call Hippolytus again, so I used the name excellence. ”

Amphiglis muttered, "No wonder I haven't seen the old guy for more than a year, it turns out that he is dead." Since you know my teacher, you should know that Asclepios is also his disciple, and we are still brothers. The old fellow usually comes to see me every year, and often advises me not to think about fighting and killing all day long, but I didn't expect him to die in the end!"

Excellence's expression was gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "I hurt him, if it wasn't for saving me, he wouldn't have ended up in ashes." ”

Amphiglis put away his sadness and smiled: "He is a doctor, and he died well to save people, there is nothing to regret, you don't have to be sad at all!"

Excellence didn't want to mention it again, so he changed the subject: "Kefaros and my father have a good relationship, if my father comes forward, they should borrow the dog, you wait for two days, and I will go back to Athens." ”

Amphigris smiled: "I haven't seen Theseus for many years, and it's better for me to come forward in person, let's not wait, let's leave for Athens." He turned to Iphicles and said, "Cles, you take them back, don't be busy talking about it beforehand, just say that I will find a way to go, and let them wait for two days." ”

Iphicles nodded in agreement, and the four of them set out for Athens. Zhuo Yan originally planned to fly, but Zhuo Zhuo didn't plan to reveal her and Thetis's identities for the time being, so he didn't let them, and the four of them walked away.

There was nothing to say all the way, and when he arrived at the Athenian palace the next day, it was already evening, and Theseus happened to be in the Athenian palace at this time, and as soon as he heard that Amphigris was coming, he immediately came out to greet him personally.

The two met and exchanged pleasantries, and Theseus immediately became excited when he saw Excellence's expression, although Excellence had changed a lot compared to before, he still recognized it at a glance. Just wanted to ask, Zhuo Zhuo hurriedly waved his hand and whispered: "Let's go back and talk about it!"

Theseus looked at the people around him, and knew that there were many people and eyes were not a place to talk, so he quickly let the four of them inside.

When he came to a side hall of the palace and drove out all the subordinates, Theseus's eyes turned red, and he immediately began to cry with a remarkable headache, and complained about his impulsiveness as he cried.

Excellence hurriedly spoke comfortingly, the two told a father-son relationship, Theseus and Amphiglis talked about the teacher Charon for a while, and finally Amphiglis talked about the meaning of this time, Theseus frowned and said: "I know that dog, but it's hard to say if it's still there, even if I'm afraid it's too old." Well, I'll ask Kefaros to ask. So saying, he commanded to go down.

About half an hour later, a man came in from outside, and it was Kephaloth.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries and talked about the dog, Kefaros looked embarrassed and said, "The dog is still there, it's just ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to catch any foxes. ”

Looking at the disbelieving eyes of the crowd, Kefaros explained, "I'm too old, and I don't eat much now. I have brought it to the royal palace, and you will see for yourselves. ”

As he spoke, he turned around and went out, and Amphigris and the others also came out, and when they went into the yard, they saw that the dog was bald and hairy, and his eyes were cloudy, lying on the ground with his mouth wide open and snoring, and the teeth in his mouth were almost gone.

Zhuoxin said that your sister probably can't run, and it is difficult to catch any fox or chicken. Amphigris also looked disappointed.

Thetis whispered in Excellence's ear, "Extraordinary, do you know why I said it was possible for it to catch that fox?"

Excellence's expression moved, and a thought flashed in his mind, but unfortunately he didn't have a clue after thinking about it for a while, so he could only shake his head.

Thetis laughed, "Think about their nicknames. ”

When he thought about it, a fox called 'Never Be Caught' and a hunting dog called 'Hunt Must Come', and both of them were produced by the oath of Zeus, so when the two of them met, it was a typical contradiction!

Thetis glanced at him and didn't speak, and said to everyone: "If it works, you'll know if you can try it, anyway, there is no other way now." ”

Kefaros said: "That's right, this old thing is useless at home anyway, you can take it away if you need it!"

Anfiglis thought about it too, so everyone put the matter down and began to drink and talk merrily, until the end of the month.
