Chapter 114 Sylph
On that day, after Locke and Xiao disappeared, Ruoxi and Cologne were very worried. They pestered Papemis and insisted on listening to Sylph's story. They couldn't help entangling the two brothers and sisters. Papemis finally told a little-known secret of Zeus.
This incident can be traced back to 30,000 years ago. Long before the birth of the fire god Hewestos, Uranos predicted that the son of Zeus would lead a rebellion. Because Zeus once overthrew his father with his brother and took the throne of God, he was also afraid that his children would defect. Therefore, Zeus swallowed his wife Metis into his stomach, giving birth to the story of Athena.
Then, after the birth of Hewistus, Zeus will naturally not forget the prophecy of Uranus. He hatesus, who was born lame, red hair, ugly, and with great energy. Wherever he went, he hated the hot Heusus. Zeus was afraid that Uranos' prediction would become a reality, so he cruelly sealed Hevitus in the crystal ball regardless of flesh and blood. Hevast grew up in a crystal ball. Until he became an adult, the crystal ball could no longer withstand the pressure of huge energy and burst on its own. The unlucky Prometheus came to steal the fire at that time, and as a result, he suffered 30,000 years of injustice.
Actually, Zeus did not know that there were twin brothers and sisters born at the same time as Heweistos, both of whom were born to Hera's mother. In order to save her children from the poisonous hand of Zeus, Hera turned them into seeds and threw them into the earth. In a hurry, she did not have time to choose an address. As a result, a seed fell into the crater of the far south, so a demigod was born. His name is Herwice.
A girl was born in the jungle of Middle-earth. Hera loved her very much, so she sent Papemiseus to take care of her.
When girls grow up, they are particularly beautiful and sexy. She has long emerald green straight hair, wears a colorful wreath on her head, and often wears a long white dress. The girl has a gentle and kind heart, and often has a charming smile on her face. Her singing is particularly beautiful, many times better than a nightingale or a lark. As long as there are flowers in the place where the girl walks, it will bloom for her no matter what season. As soon as she appears, no matter how cruel the beast is, it will become gentle and cute. Every day, the girl gets up early and sits by the stream to comb her long green hair. The creatures in the jungle like her and affectionately call her "Celph".
One day, Apollo, with blonde eyes and a golden quiver on his back, appeared. He drove the sun car pulled by four horses across the sky. The brilliant light emitted by his flying curls made Sylph infinitely obsessed. She fell in love with the teenager like a demon.
From then on, Sylph sat by the stream every day and stared at the direction of the sea, which was the place where Eos opened the door of the palace for Apollo, so that she could watch the walking Apollo come out and watch him step into the car gracefully. The heat across the sky left infinite warmth in Sylph's heart. She looked at it until the straight figure disappeared after the rose-colored sunset.
Day after day, year after year, Sylph doesn't eat, drink, sleep like this, and no one can persuade her. Unexpectedly, this view is 20,000 years. Finally, she became haggard and her skin lost its luster. Looking at her ugly face in the stream, she cried sadly and made her tears dry. Finally, she shed tears. The desperate Sylph sealed her consciousness and fell into a pool of blood. A tree grew from Sylph's blood and tears, which is called "the tree of bitter love".
There is a bird living on the branches of the bitter tree. It is particularly beautiful, with a pinch of turquoise feathers on its head and a white peacock-like tail behind it. Its singing is particularly beautiful and miserable. Whether it is a human or a god, as long as you hear its singing, you will burst into tears. People say that it is the embodiment of Sylph.
Every morning, the bird stares in the direction of the sun rising. When the sun rises, it spreads its wings and flies towards the sun. However, its wings could not stand the scorching heat wave and soon burned. After the bird dies during the day, it will resurrect at night. Every night, it sobs and cries on the bitter love tree, and then, during the day, it flies to the sun and dies again in the burning flames. If it's cloudy or rainy, and you can't see the sun, it will perch on the bitter love tree and cry. That kind of crying often sounds heartbreaking.
Later, Apollo learned the story of Sylph, and he was moved and asked Hera to give him the bird. Hera agreed to Apollo's request, and she turned Sylph into a divine bird and let it perch on Apollo's shoulder. Sylph finally met the person she missed, but because she had sealed her consciousness, she could no longer speak or sing a song, so she could only look at Apollo silently with caring eyes.
Because Papmius did not take good care of Sylph, Hera was furious when she knew it. She condemned Papmius, punished Papmius to guard the jungle for life, and cursed her descendants never to leave the jungle, otherwise they would be punished.
Since then, Papemius has become the queen of the elves, and she and her children and people guard the jungle. The fruit of the bitter love tree is worshipped in the temple to guard the creatures in the jungle.
"Love, what is love?" Locke said to himself, and he suddenly became confused. He felt that whether it was Pluto, Papmius, or Sylph, what they had done was almost crazy and stupid.
In fact, Locke's coming up with this idea may be related to his career, because for 10,000 years, he has been playing a ruthless role in dealing with only the dead. In this ten thousand years, no one has ever fallen in love with him, because he is a god of death. No matter where he goes, his body exudes a breath. It is a kind of desperate breath of death. Who will fall in love with him if the gods are afraid of avoiding it?
"You haven't loved it, of course you won't understand." Ruoxi pouted her small mouth, and her green eyes were full of resentment.
"Who is worthy of my love? Not at all." Locke is going to be angry with the little girl.
"You... Just by you? A head like a cow and a brain like a pig will fall in love with you. The little girl glanced blankly at Locke and muttered dissatisfiedly.
"Do I really have to be so ugly?" Locke shook the corners of his head and said, "Yes, I really don't look handsome. Why don't I change my appearance? Do you think I look good now?" When he said this, the beautiful face appeared in front of his eyes.
"Wow! Who are you?"
The two brothers and sisters bounced up in horror. Ruoxi opened her mouth even more, which was O-shaped, enough to stuff an egg.
In the blink of an eye, Locke disappeared, and a man wearing a silver mask and a black robe appeared in front of the two brothers and sisters.
"Of course it's me, Devil - Locke." With that, Locke removed his mask. His voice has not changed, but only a face, and it is still a beautiful face.
"Wow, it's so handsome, so cool!" Cologne's eyes were straight.
"What? A dead face."
I thought Ruoxi would have a nosebleed, but I never thought that the little girl's eyebrows were wrinkled like a stinky ditch, and finally lost her image as a lady. She roared, "Dead Locke, come back!"
