Chapter 110: Athena
The yacht picked up speed and flew past the islands of Sant'Evesstratios, Lesvos and into the east on the island of Chios.
When you look at Andros Island, it's already night.
The yacht is really too quiet now, in order to break this unusual quiet, Shangguan Ying said: "You turn on all the lights on the yacht! I, first, take you to see the bright lights of the Aegean Sea." ”
The yacht increases its horsepower, as if it were flying on the sea. I saw that the ancient city islands around the Aegean Sea were brightly lit and dazzling, and they seemed to be huge night pearls floating in the night sky.
Tonight, the yacht will spend the night on the island of Chios, a Greek city and the capital of the state of Chios, which is in a precarious position with a headland barrier outside the harbor. The population is about 50,000. Legend has it that the great Greek poet Homer once lived in the area, and there are many ruins and relics of his residence on the island.
It is only eight kilometres from the west coast of Turkey to the east, about 50 kilometres long from north to south and 13 to 24 kilometres wide, and is mostly volcanic and limestone mountains, with the highest peak being Palina at an altitude of 1,297 metres. From the beginning of the fourth century BC, the island began to flourish in commerce and logistics, and the Roman and Byzantine empires at that time were at the height of their prosperity, attracting much of Europe, Central Asia, and Africa.
However, in the 11th and 12th centuries AD, it was invaded by the Turks and then the Venetians, which changed the previous state of affairs and the economy deteriorated. 1415. The island became a vassal of the Ottoman Empire and was returned to Greece after the Balkan Wars from 1912 to 1913.
At dawn the next day, everyone woke up and walked out of the hatch to see the two monks, Ashumo and Sanammo, and the one-legged old witch Nubilberizia lying on the deck, both of whom were not lightly injured. Zhu Xianlong saw that Ah Shumo and Sanammo had been spelled, because there were gray-white smoke rings around the two of them, which must have been a spell cast by the one-legged old witch.
Zhu Xianlong looked at the old witch Nubilberizia again, and found that her face was bloodless. It was judged that she had internal injuries. Zhu Xianlong hurriedly carried her into the bed in the cabin bedroom. Then he took the broken leg in and put it beside the witch.
When he went out of the hatch again, he found the abbot of the Aluo Monastery, Gabtuo, standing on the deck. Zhu Xuanlong once met him with Master Kongru at the Lotus Ci Nunnery in Luoyang, and Jingzhu Bhikshuni introduced him at that time, and it was then that he learned that his martial arts were world-famous. Of course. This is perhaps a polite remark. Let's be honest. In the martial arts world. I haven't found that my martial arts have surpassed those of the Nine Xuanyu Qing Heavenly Master.
Zhu Xuanlong saw that the abbot Gabutuo did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute, Zhu Xuanlong said: "There is a loss of welcome." The abbot rested in the cabin, drank a cup of tea first, and then greeted him. ”
Zhu Xuanlong then called everyone out of the cabin to greet the eighty-eight-year-old abbot Gabutuo.
After Abbot Gabtuo sat down on the sofa in the cabin, Mengzidie took the Turkish black tea from Mujitana Gerla and served it with both hands. After taking the teacup, Gabuta suddenly realized: "Mengzi Butterfly, hehe! Last time we met in Dahua Yuanchi Temple, hehe, they are all lay disciples known to Master Kongru. ”
Abbot Gabuta changed the topic and sighed: "Asumo and Sanammo have been practicing for so long, and they are still so competitive. This time, the two of them did not return for two days, and only then did they realize that these two people were causing trouble everywhere. Just now, I unwrapped the spell on both of them, and in a moment they will be free as before. ”
The old abbot moved his body and said to Zhu Xianlong: "Xuanlong, do you remember the last time you went to the hell realm in the underworld and tried your fists and kicks with Ah Suimo and Sanammo? This time, I sent the two of them to practice in that old place again, just because the sins of Ashumo and Sanammo had increased. If you have the chance to go in the future, go and see both of them. ”
Abbot Gabtuo seemed to remember something, and hurriedly said, "I heard that you have a relationship with the Gukhadaling of the prison realm?"
Zhu Xianlong nodded. Abbot Gabtuo reminded: "This time, Asayama and Sanammo went to the underworld to practice, and the two of them are going to persuade Gukha Daling to let her reincarnate as soon as possible. Xuanlong, in the future, you must not be ambiguous in your words, otherwise, she will give up reincarnation for love. ”
As he spoke, Ayumo and Sanammo entered the cabin to listen to the abbot's orders. Abbot Gabuda said coldly: "I am more than eighty years old, and now I think of the past life, countless eons, and there will eventually be a Buddha in the middle, whose number is bright on the sun and moon." You wait for good sins, you have not broken the fate of the dust, and everyone you meet is opposite with fists and feet. Okay, the two of you will leave immediately, go to the Netherworld, and continue your cultivation. I know that you two love fist and foot kung fu, Zhu Xianlong said, I will accompany you with fists and feet whenever I have time. Ashumo and Sanammo, will you two go?"
After Ashumo and Sanammo left, the abbot Gabuta also said goodbye and traveled back to the Rua Luo Monastery in Gansu. A short time later, the one-legged old witch Nubilbericia came out of the bedroom, greeted everyone, and hurried away.
Everyone watched her fly to the clouds from the deck.
Ahead, a beautiful view of the island, they are scattered. In the blue sky and blue sea, seagulls fly idly, and the waves are like snow. In the distance, the Comet Rock Monastery is as white as jade, and you can see the spectacular beauty of the modern monastery, and everyone is naturally pleased with its beautiful scenery.
Greece is a country with many islands, each of which is full of temptations. Tourists from all over the world take ships ranging from cruise ships to small yachts, all of which shuttle through these unique islands, and they all go their own way, and there is an endless stream.
Looking at such a beautiful scene in the world, Mengzidie unconsciously remembered a very good scene, and hurriedly suggested: "Do you know Santorini? It is said to be one of the most beautiful islands in Greece, and I really want to see it." ”
Bunedy-Imida said excitedly: "Sister, let's go and have a look, in the past few days, everyone has been fighting with the gangsters from birth to death, and now it is time to relax?"
Shangguan Ying was thoughtful, first frowned, and then smiled: "Hehe, I can't go." It's the peak season for tourists, so you can only watch from a distance. If you don't believe it, you will know when you go. From May to August every year. Thousands of tourists flock to the island for vacations, and the island is overwhelmed. We go now, but we are afraid that we will never be able to get out again after we go in. ”
Mengzidie nodded regretfully, "Oh! In my opinion, let's go there again after September? I heard that there is also a black sand beach on the island, which is said to have a unique beauty effect, and European and American tourists love to go there for sunbathing. ”
Like a deflated ball, Bunedy Imida said helplessly: "Okay, then wait until September, and I will definitely go and see it then." When the time comes, all the people will have to go?"
Everyone nodded and hurriedly said, "Go!"
After disembarking for breakfast. Zhu Xianlong drove the yacht to the sea west of Chios Island. The next day, I passed through the beautiful city of Yanizi and finally witnessed the magical city of Athens in people's impressions.
Athens, the sky is as blue as blue. The city of Athens, the ancient pillar of the Acropolis. Stand tall in the sky. Parthenon – Temple of Athena. There are many sculptures on the left and right. The ancient walls are high and the city walls are eye-catching, majestic and magnificent.
The capital, Athens, is also the largest central city in Greece. It is known as the cradle of European civilization and is known for its rich historical sites.
Everyone abandoned the boat and climbed the stairs into the clean ancient city, unconsciously walking into a thousand-year-old dream.
Shangguan Ying was full of interest and chatted as she walked: "Everyone, is it magnificent? In the eighth century B.C., the Ionians built this magnificent Athenian city, and they were the leaders of the ancient Greek city-states and a great generation of people with lofty ideals! Ancient Athens is worthy of being the source of Western culture. The Athenians seem to have a natural interest in art, philosophy, law, and science, and they can concentrate on everything they study, and have made outstanding contributions to the world. ”
Mengzidie also said excitedly: "Yes! As far back as the fifth century B.C., which was also the heyday of Athens, there were many immortal masters, such as the great tragedian Euripides, the great comedian Aristophanes, and the historian Herodotus. Walking on this magical land, it is like walking into the temple of ancient Greek historical architecture and art, and there is really an indescribable feeling of traveling. ”
Zhu Xianlong said with emotion: "The first time I came, it was very shocking! Athens is indeed the center of ancient cultural relics in Greece, and there are still many ancient cultural sites preserved, which can still show the majesty of those years. I was so excited! From this, I thought about the long cultural history of our ancient Chinese civilization, and those unique buildings are actually very shocking. In addition, I suddenly thought of the thousand-year-old dragon and phoenix mandarin duck sword. If we come here, maybe this city will have our thousand-year-old phoenix sword. ”
Shangguan Ying hurriedly said: "I really wish there was." If we find the Phoenix Sword, we can play without restrictions, and go to whichever country we want. ”
When the five of them reached Agora, near Monastiraki Square, they stopped, because this is the place where the Romans once left the most ancient ruins. Today it's almost a bazaar, that is to say a free commodity market with temporary stalls on a regular basis – an open-air market takes place every Sunday morning.
Not to mention, on Sundays, the market is lined with stalls, with all kinds of goods piled up along the narrow streets, including ancient treasures and modern fakes, including all kinds of antique ornaments, ancient tapestries, ancient furniture, etc.
Mengzidie said excitedly: "Coincidentally, today is Sunday, we may spend most of the day shopping here, we can have a good treasure hunt, maybe we can really meet the thousand-year-old phoenix sword we are looking for." ”
Zhu Xuanlong also said excitedly: "Well, it's very possible. ”
Everyone was in high spirits, and after visiting the virtual market commodity market for most of the day, everyone was tired. Although there are ancient swords from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in China, it is a pity that I have not seen the Phoenix Sword. But the ancient surroundings make everyone linger and marvel at the chic of the capital Athens!
Looking at the sky, it was already six o'clock in the evening, and the five of them checked into the older Flona Grand Hotel, and after a simple dinner, they all washed up and rested. Zhu Xianlong lived in a single room, and Mujitana Gerla came over to help her brother make tea, and took the clothes and socks that Zhu Xianlong wanted to wash to his room to wash. Bunedy-Imida brought the snacks she bought at the market during the day and gave them to Zhu Xianlong, and wanted to talk to her brother, but she almost fell asleep without saying a few words.
Zhu Xuanlong knew that she was too tired, so he persuaded with concern: "Wake up little sister? Obedient, go back to your room and go to sleep, and wake up my brother tomorrow morning, okay?"
Bunedy-Imida said in a daze: "Brother Xuanlong, I know that you are very lonely here alone, when my brother falls asleep, I will go over and sleep?........."
Zhu Xianlong pretended to be angry and said: "I see, I haven't fallen asleep yet, you fell asleep first." No, go to sleep, be obedient. .........”
Bunaid-Imidanus pursed her mouth, her eyes were half-open, she glanced at Zhu Xianlong, and said softly: "You are really instigating." Well, I went to sleep, good night!"
Zhu Xuanlong's sleepiness seemed to have passed, on the contrary, he did not feel a little sleepy, so he lay down and thought about things quietly, and now, his mind was full of thoughts about the Phoenix Sword.
It didn't take long for Shangguan Ying to knock on the door and come in, and Zhu Xianlong hurriedly got up and closed his clothes to accompany the greetings. The two brewed steaming exotic black tea, but the words they wanted to say were spinning in their minds, these words were some long-stored love words, and both sides were thinking that it was inconvenient to say it at once at this time, on the contrary, both of them went around in circles.
Although he slowly wanted to get closer to the topic, the two sides were still in the way of affection, and they still suppressed their emotions and didn't have to let the other party see through it at once, so the words in their hearts were in their mouths, pretending to look at the color of the black tea. In fact, drinking this kind of tea can be regarded as a disguise of their mental activities and a formality. Speaking of drinking exotic black tea, the two of them are just out of helplessness, if they are in China, they will definitely have to make the aristocratic red robe, and at the very least, they will have to make Phoenix Dancong, Baihao Silver Needle or the Taiping Monkey Kui of Huangshan.
Zhu Xianlong smiled thoughtfully: "Mengzi Butterfly, have they slept?"
Shangguan Ying was thinking about how to cut into the emotional topic, and at this moment she was busy saying as if she were from a dream: "Oh! She and Mujitana Gerla went to sleep after washing their clothes. Bonedy Imida had just gone to bed, and the white fox and the golden fox didn't seem tired, and were fighting on the carpet at this moment. ”
Zhu Xianlong nodded, it seemed that all distractions had been eliminated, and now, it seemed that he could come to meet Shangguan Yingtou's true love with confidence. But before deliberately showing his love for a long time, he used irrelevant topics as a cover for his excitement, and Zhu Xianlong squeaked and said: "Oh, I just saw that Bunedy Imida was very sleepy, and she couldn't open her eyes, so I finally persuaded her to go to sleep." A few of them are tired of playing during the day, and they are not as energetic and lively as men, hehe. ”
Shangguan Ying wanted to confess her true love for Zhu Xuanlong, and Zhu Xuanlong also wanted to show her true love with practical actions and was willing to enjoy this true love immediately, but after all this was suddenly knocked open by a person, the two were completely separated.
