Barney Mend shifted his goal, staring at Dewey a few steps ago and asked: ... You have such a point of view that proves that you can think, then what is the significance of your thinking? A stone does not need to eat or earn money. What is the difference between you and it? Why are you having fun standing here listening to other people's talk? Seeing this scene, Amon hurried forward and pulled Parmenides: "It turns out that I just narrated the question of Socrates. I have heard of this name." You asked me if I came from Plato Academy. Can I ask you another sage from Plato Academy, whose name is Aristotle. "
Barmend replied: "Oh, he is no longer in Aaron. It is said that he went to the Kingdom of Macedonia as a court teacher, far away from here." He still wanted to chase after he was about to leave. Dewey asked, and Amon took the opportunity to disappear into the crowd on the field.
The next day, Aesop said to Amon: "My god, the Aaron people also like to watch all kinds of dramas, and mortals perform stories of gods on the stage. This is a juggling with artists from other countries on the Tianshu mainland. Not the same. If such a performance is in Egü or Hati, it may be regarded as blasphemous, but the Aaronites love to watch these. "
Amon asked with great interest: "Oh? Yesterday I also heard that there is a special theater here. People put on costumes to perform the stories of gods and humans. How did it come first?"
Aesop replied: "The earliest also originated from the discussion of the people in the temple 〖Guang〗. The clever entertainers compiled the topics about the gods they heard on the temple 〖Guang〗 into the repertoire. People see it, the result is very popular. Later, there were sages who wrote special repertoires for artists to perform in the theater, which is one of the favorite entertainments of the public in Aaron. "
May Danzuo interjected: "I went out for a turn yesterday, I heard that there are now three playwrights who are most famous for their repertoire, they all wrote tragedies and earned tears from men ’s restful women, and I want to go too Check it out. "
Amon nodded: "That's good" Let's go to the theater together! I have never seen such a performance, and no other theater has appeared in any other city-state. "Aesop is the" great man "sitting in the carriage, Mei Danzuo is the" guard "riding on the mawei and majestic following the car, Amon is still an insignificant driver, driving the carriage to the most lively family in the city of Aaron theater. Aesop asked for the best seat, and today's play is "Prometheus."
At the beginning, a group of entertainers on the stage were supposed to be **** envoys, singing a psalm of praise to the gods. ”This is no different from the scene of the tribute to the gods in the countries of Tianshu mainland, but it was replaced by ordinary people on the stage. The identity of God. Amon just smiled and watched, "After a while, he gradually looked into God, because" God "appeared.
This is a story about the beginning of the birth of Olympus. According to Amon ’s understanding of the Olympus, Zeus merged the original kingdom of God, thus creating the current Olympus. Heaven. This process is also accompanied by a battle of the gods. What is different from the battle of the Anunnaki gods is that Zeus verified a higher achievement than the creation god.
Human legends are expressed in a way that people can understand, but in Amon ’s opinion, Prometheus is the **** who should be defeated in the battle of the gods and the opponent of Zeus.
In the myths and legends of the world, "vaguely implies that he has the equivalent of the creation **** or higher, which surprised Amon.
Because in the story, Prometheus mixes the soil with the river water, according to the image of the gods, it is shaped like a human being. The God of Wisdom, Yalena, gave these clay shapes a soul that can think. The original person. This coincides with a background "that is, the earliest creation **** of Olympus is not Zeus. Generally speaking, in all myths, the so-called creators are the original creation gods, and Prometheus is just a representative. Sex name.
The next story on stage is the interpretation of the world, and it is more interesting. As a god, Prometheus was biased towards mankind. He did not hesitate to deceive gods for mankind, and thus angered Zeus. Zeus decided not to give the fire to the world. And Prometheus violated the decision of the Lord of the Gods. He stole fire from the sky with an incense stick and brought it to the world.
Seeing this, "Amon could n’t help but smile. He remembered the original burrowing tribe of Link ’s caveman, who lit a fire in a large cave as a **** worship, and also remembered what the Boze Empire enshrined. The holy fire of light is related to the most primitive divine life and religious origin. The fire symbolizes light, warmth, protection and hope, and it is also the beginning of people's spiritual wisdom from ignorance.
In myths and legends everywhere, gods created the world and gave light and warmth, and the situation here is no exception. But the playwrights in the city of Aaron adapted the structure of the myth story, and the kindling became the fuse of the differences between the gods and the conflict between the gods and the gods, celebrating a spirit of resistance to the will of the gods.
Amon realized another meaning in this story, which was unknown to other audiences in the theater, and was the so-called "name and true language" in the Egyptian mythology. The name refers to the achievement of the deity, and Zhen Lou's language refers to the method of obtaining this achievement. For mortals, it is the secret to becoming a deity. Amon's personal experience confirms this process.
If the "fire" in this play is replaced with "name and real language" in the Egyptian mythology, then the legend has another insinuation. It seems to be suggesting that Prometheus wanted to tell the world the secret of becoming a god, and Zeus didn't want to disclose the guidance of the source power.
Arm did n’t know if such a thing had happened. He did n’t know much about the secrets within the Olympus system, and the stage was just a human drama. He couldn't help but ask Aesop: "Someone can write such a drama, which shows that the legend has been circulating for a long time. In the legend you know, what kind of **** is Prometheus?" Aesop frowned. Answer: "When I was a child, I heard a long-standing legend that Prometheus was a sinner among the gods. This man deceived the gods with conspiracy and tricks, so he was punished by Zeus and was chained forever.
And the drama we saw obviously reinterpreted mythology, gave this **** another image, and gave the legend another solution to his nose "
Amon moved slightly: "Sinner? The story of this play should have the earliest origin. Such a **** should belong to the defeated party in the battle of the ancient gods of Olympus. Created by Prometheus. "Human" is also implying believers who believe in the defeat of a god, like my ancestors, the people of Duque Town. "
Mei Danzuo touched his nose and said: "You say that, it's really similar! If it's not the myth of Olympus, and replaced with the legend of the Anunnaki mythology, I really thought it was suggesting Duke Town Story. If Prometheus is not the **** who defeated one side, but one of those sinners, "it is almost insinuating your story. "
Amon smiled slightly: "The world under the sun always has the shadow of deja vu. This drama reminds you of me, but it doesn't have to be me, it's just a story compiled by a sage. I It's just curious, why did the person who wrote this drama integrate into a new legend on the mainland and change this myth? "
Amon is asking a question, Aesop replied: "Mythology has the shadow of a god", but people only circulate it in a way that they understand, adding their own wishes to the circulation, and many stories I have told same. The person who wrote this drama has not seen Zeus, but has seen all kinds of people in the world. Authorities that people tried to resist but could not resist became the fathers of the gods in mythology, and their wishes became the behavior of Prometheus. "
Mei Danzuo also replied: "People have awe and desire in their hearts, which makes them think of gods, and their anger and dissatisfaction with this mou world also make them question gods. People desire to have the same power and [Self], sometimes, the neighbor who ca n’t afford it can also become Zeus in the drama. "
Amon is undecided and continues to watch the show. The next performance reminded him of the tribes of Duke Town and the thousand years of suffering suffered by the tribes.
On the stage, "Human" was punished by Zeus. The gods of Olympus created a charming and lovely girl named Pandora, who came to the world with a magic box and tempted Prometheus' younger brother Epimetheus. The tempted Epiphanes opened the magic box, and various plagues and disasters flew out of the box. At the bottom of the box is "hope" but Pandora closed it and left it in the magic box.
Seeing this, Amon asked again, "What's going on with this box?"
The box was just compiled by the dramatist, but Amon obviously asked otherwise. Mei Danzuo replied: "People fear the gods and fear the unknown, so they pray to the gods in their hearts for hope.
People are dissatisfied with their situation, so they hate the gods who bring it all. Hope and disaster have become symbols of the gods, including prayer and fear. "
Aesop replied: "This is a protest that can be seen everywhere in the world, such as the hatred of a tyrant." It also contains the ultimate purpose of the protest, which is left in the magic box that has not been struck. "
Amon stopped talking again, and then Prometheus himself was punished on stage.
The Zeus Commander locked Prometheus on the cliffs of the Caucasus Mountains "to spend the time of thirteen generations in the world. He was hungry and cold, and an eagle pecked his internal organs every day." Healed again and endured endless torture. There is a fruit tree on the cliff, and the delicious fruit bends the branch and hangs in front of Prometheus. When he wants to open his mouth to eat, there will be a gust of wind blowing the branch away.
This time Amon did not speak, but Aesop murmured to himself: "Hope is in front of you, you can see it, but you can never reach it?"
Gradually, the play is nearing its end, ushering in a moment of liberation. There is a son of a god, a half-human, half-human and half-god Hercules passing the Caucasus mountains. The strong man sympathized with Prometheus's fate of fate, and shot an eagle that peepsed him, and broke the chain to save Prometheus.
At the end, Prometheus and Zeus ended their confrontation and finally made peace, but Zeus still asked Prometheus to bring an iron ring with a rock on the cliff, symbolizing that he was still locked in On the Caucasus mountains.
Seeing this, Mei Danzuo said to himself: "The person who wrote this drama is not clear about the existence of demigods, so he understands demigods as the descendants of gods and people."
Aesop asked: "Is there really a Hercules like Hercules?"
Mei Danzuo replied: "Of course I have, I have seen it before, such as En Qidu."
Amon said nothing more, and said to Aesop after the end of the game: "Well, it is really worth seeing, come back tomorrow!"
The next day, Amon came to the theater again. He did n’t sit in the best seat with Aesop and Mei Danzuo, just as an ordinary chaser, with a group of people wearing burlap clothes Mix in the most crowded audience to watch the show. Yesterday ’s repertoire surprised Amon, and today ’s repertoire inspired the **** to “shock.” Its name is “King Oedipus.” It ’s a tumultuous and thrilling story on yesterday ’s stage. Appeared, and in today's play, the gods are only looming shadows, only revealing their existence through oracles, and the stories all happen in the realm of the world.
At the beginning, the stage was also a familiar scene that had happened in many countries on the Tianshu mainland. A plague occurred in a city called Thebe, and King Oedipus ordered the priests to pray in the Temple of Apollo, praying for help and salvation from the gods, and guiding people through disasters.
Apollo is the **** of light and youth in the Olympus system. It is also the patron saint that this city-state believes in. On the walls of the temple of Apollo, there is a famous saying: "Know yourself." "
Apollo lowered the oracle to the city of Thebai: "Identify the criminals hidden in the city and punish the murderer who killed the first king, and the plague will be eliminated."
Then the second scene changed, and it became the queen's memory of the former king. Oedipus was not the queen ’s first husband. The king of the city-state was killed by a strongman when he went out, and the son of the king was discarded as early as three days after his birth. The kingdom lost its heir.
Why did the first king abandon his son? This is also because Apollo had lowered the oracle and predicted that the first king would be killed by his son. Why do gods drop such oracles? The scene goes back further, it turned out that this young king had robbed another king's son when he was young, so he was cursed by the gods.
And where does the current king Oedipus come from? Then there was another scene on the stage, which became the memory of Oedipus.
Otupus is the son of another city-state king 〖Zhong〗. One day when he prayed to Apollo in the temple, he heard the voice of the gods and said that he would have the terrible fate of killing his father and marrying his mother. In order to fight this Destiny and not allowing the oracle to fulfill, Oedipus ran away from home and vowed never to return. On the way, he had an unexpected conflict with a group of people, pulled a sword and killed an arrogant noble, and came to the city .
At the time, the city was worshipped by a huge disaster. There was a sphinx banshee who was on the way and asked passers-by a puzzle. If he could not answer it, he would be eaten. The king of the city-state was recently killed outside by a strongman. In order to save the city-state, everyone decides who can solve the puzzles and free the city-state from bad luck "to marry the widow of the previous king and inherit the throne.
Seeing this, Amon has guessed what the playwright is going to write. Oedipus is the son of the first king, and the person he killed was the original king of the city. The oracle may symbolize fate "and the sentence engraved on the wall of the temple of Apollo is the root of the tragedy. People do not have the eyes to see everything like gods, and Oedipus does not know his origin." Do everything to fight the fate foretold by this oracle.
At this moment, Amon noticed that there was a head in the front row audience that was more conspicuous, because the man had a bald head, which is very rare in the Aaron city gang, and there are fine details on the scalp of Zheng Qing Hair stubble, it doesn't look like born bald. Amon recognized this person, that was Vincent, who had walked with the infinite amount of light in the Syrian desert, and later met in the cold city, this person was a transcendental who was guided by another kind.
Suddenly seeing this man again in the city of Aaron, and squeezing in a position where he can reach with his hand, Amon was taken aback. Vincent Te also sensed that, turning his shoulders back to recognize Amon, he nodded and smiled, and then turned to continue to watch the drama, but there was a voice in the soul: "God Amon, how did you get in?" Olympus' God Territory? You should look without your permission from the gods. Doing so may cause disputes. "
Amon asked in his soul: "Are n’t you here too?"
Vincent Bu replied: "I am just watching the show, and I will not show or use any of your so-called miraculous means."
Amon: "I just came to watch the show, and won't show miracles."
Vincenteb: "Oh? Then you looked at me just now, but it does not belong to mortals, and it has the power to penetrate the six senses. If I am a **** of the Olympus system, you may be Startled or irritated. "
Amon smiled and said: "I know that you are not a **** of the Olympus system, but you are just like me in the crowd watching movies. I will have that kind of vision in order to confirm your identity. You can feel it When I see through my soul, is this a miracle? "
Vincent replied: "The guidelines I have accepted are different from the paths you are familiar with. I am just supernatural and self-sufficient, which is different from what you call miracles."
At the same time he spoke, a message was imprinted into Amon ’s soul: This cultivator called some kind of means "supernatural powers" but it was different from the so-called miracles of the various deities, it was just an extension of perception. When possessing and using this ability, there will be no extra touch in this world.
Vincente ’s explanation is very interesting, and there are new inspirations for Amon. Mana and realm. Among the methods that Amon has mastered, detecting magic or information magic to a very brilliant level can also accomplish this, but Vincent Bu explained the difference in means.
