Plundering the Dao of the Immortal Journey Chapter 557: Funeral and Feast
The mysterious lady is still shrouded in a shadow, just listening to her lightly saying: "Do you think Poseidon will listen to you for this reason and forgive you?"
Pei Ziyun was silent for a moment. He knew that what the mysterious lady was saying was the truth, and the gods would definitely not forgive those who killed their children, whether they were willing or not.
"Paris, look, Philothetes could have survived well, but since he shot an arrow at Kuknos, fate has thrown him the bargaining chip for death."
"Philoke Thetes will never return to his hometown. He can only go to the realm of Hades."
"Hercules, a new **** who has only ascended to a **** but has not been accepted by Olympus, it is impossible to shelter him."
Pei Ziyun's eyes flashed. In the original script and history, Phillock Thetes returned home smoothly, but now, indeed, Ms. Mystery is still right. Phillock Thetes shot Cook with a bow and arrow. When North, his life also started the countdown.
"Prince Paris, I give you a piece of advice, don't commit the crime of killing God's biological son. In that case, death will take your life." said the mysterious lady.
At this time, the royal palace went to the temple of Apollo (apollo) and the priest hurriedly walked, and Pei Ziyun stopped: "Priest, how did the result of the temple of Apollo?"
"Unfortunately, Prince Paris, the Temple of Apollo did not respond."
Although I knew it would be such a result, Pei Ziyun's heart was still heavy, because of the misfortune of Kuknos and the indifference of these gods.
"Priest, I still have to thank you for your hard work." Pei Ziyun said, turning to look at the shadow of the pillar just now, the mysterious lady has disappeared.
"Is she here specifically to prevent me from killing Kuknos?" Pei Ziyun thought to himself.
"It shouldn't be. She just ran into me trying to follow Kuknos's wishes to kill him, and she stopped me. Then why did she come to the Troy Palace?" Pei Ziyun thought hard, and entered the palace with the priest , Kuknos, lying on the bed, watched Pei Ziyun walk in with the priest in silence, and suddenly understood that the Temple of Apollo was nothing.
He lay on the bed, slowly raised his hands, exhausted his last strength, his voice hoarse: "Great Poseidon, my father, I came here against your will and got the fate of death, this It is my sin, but please recite that I am your son and give the people who hurt me and the Greeks the same blow."
"Please take care of my son, your grandson." After speaking, Kuknos took the sword beside him and swung his sword to commit suicide.
At the moment of suicide, everyone heard a heavy sigh.
Pei Ziyun saw Kuknos commit suicide, and his soul was about to escape into Hades's realm, but an invisible light flashed, and Kuknos's soul was taken away.
He knew that this was Poseidon himself, intercepting and retrieving the soul of his son Kuknos.
Looking at Kuknos lying on the bed with his eyes wide open, Priam stepped forward and closed his eyes and told his servant: "Go and clean the king Kuknos, put on clean clothes again, and go A pyre was built in front of the Poseidon Temple platform to facilitate the cremation of Kuknos."
Pei Ziyun is helpless with the ending arranged by the gods, and can only do what he should do. Seeing everyone’s silence, the atmosphere is sad, and he said to King Priam: "Father, I will leave the battle tomorrow. King Knos has revenge. If I can kill Philothetes, then I will go to the Kingdom of Kronai, protect Knos’ son and city-state, and stop the Greeks from revenge."
"Paris, the Greeks still have a lot of heroes. The bow and arrow of Philothetes is the divine bow left by Hercules. It will not be easy for you to defeat him tomorrow." Priam Si expressed his concern.
"Father, this requires the cooperation of Brother Hector and other Trojan heroes." Pei Ziyun said.
"This is no problem, but it can't be dealt with, don't force it." King Priam said.
"Okay, father, I will do what I can, and I will not worry everyone." Pei Ziyun finished speaking, raising his hands and praying: "Great Poseidon, please listen to my voice, I will kill you The murderer who died of Kuknos has revenge. I hope you can protect me so that I can successfully kill Philothetes."
After praying, Pei Ziyun said again: "Kuknos is my friend, please allow me to use the most expensive sesame oil, and use gold as a funeral."
Speaking, he ordered his servants to take it, and when everyone saw it, they all sighed with emotion.
The servants cleaned Kuknos again, put on new clothes, and smeared him with the balm that Prince Paris had brought.
The body of Kuknos was put on a stretcher and carried out.
Pei Ziyun followed King Priam and others to the cremation stand built and watched quietly.
The cremation stand is a huge rectangular high platform built by craftsmen in the palace with some combustible wood. The base is one meter high and surrounded by flammable firewood.
The servants carried the stretcher to the cremation platform and placed the body of Kuknos on the rectangular cremation platform. Cook lay quietly on the high platform, as if he fell asleep.
Not far from the cremation stand is the temple of Poseidon.
The priest stood before the altar and prayed: "Great Poseidon, please take your son Kuknos back to heaven and continue to shelter him."
At the end of the sacrifice, everyone gathered the cremation platform in a circle, praying silently, remembering the great hero Kuknos, and remembering everything.
King Priam said loudly: "Great and kind Kuknos, how humane and righteous you are, but the despicable Greeks have taken your life. We have resolved to avenge you, hope Your soul can rest in peace. I also hope that the great Poseidon, your father will protect you forever."
After the king finished speaking, someone held a torch and lit the cremation stand. The fire blazed and swallowed the entire cremation stand instantly.
For a long time, a pile of ashes remained on the spot, and the king ordered the ashes to be filled in porcelain jars.
"Kuknos, I will avenge you and send your ashes back to your hometown, the Kingdom of Kronai." Pei Ziyun said loudly.
After talking, a little plum blossom appeared quickly, and quickly zoomed in, turning into a transparent data frame, appearing in front of my eyes with a faint sense of light.
"Task: Kill Philothetes and avenge Kuknos (unfinished)"
Greek camp
Contrary to the situation in Troy, there is a celebration banquet being held in the Greek camp at the moment. The princes are happy for the wonderful performance of Philothetes today, and shout and cheer.
The princes and heroes of the entire Greek coalition gathered at the banquet, and everyone indulged in food and wine.
Agamemnon personally filled Phillock Thetes with a glass of wine, raised his own glass, raised his glass to Phillock Thetes, drank it, and said, "My dear Philothetes, let me say it again, because we were confused for a while, we abandoned you on Caluse Island, but this is also God’s wish."
"Please don't get angry with us anymore. We have been punished by God for these things." After speaking, Agamemnon slapped his frightened palm, and the servant led the woman, horses and treasures up.
"Now that you killed Kuknos and relieved our greatest difficulty, please accept our gift."
"Here are seven Trojan women, twenty steeds, and twelve tripods. I hope you like it. I sincerely invite you to live with me in my camp."
Agamemnon sincerely apologized to Philothetes, and presented treasures and gifts, so that Philothetes' last bit of grievance disappeared without a trace.
Just listen to Philothetes answering: "Great Commander Agamemnon, where are you talking, I am no longer angry with you, including you, Agamemnon, and anyone."
"Okay." Agamemnon stood up with a big laugh, shaking his body, as if he had drunk too much, and filled Philoktetes again, holding his glass, and said, "Come on. , For our friendship and for the victory of this war."
Fillock Thetes also took the wine glass and drank it.
"Philoke Thetes, you said we have a good chance of winning this time." Agamemnon posed a very difficult question to answer.
"Commander of Agamemnon~IndoMTL.com~I think Troy has no strong heroes except Kuknos. Our chances of winning this time are very big."
"Oh? Really?" Agamemnon obviously didn't expect Philothetes to be so confident.
"Yes, the only better estimate is Hector and Prince Paris. I saw Paris kill several of our heroes today. I originally planned to attack him with a cold arrow, but he gave them all Blocked."
"When I was in the match tomorrow, I looked for an opportunity to shoot him." Philothetes said.
"That's great, you have to know that Paris is the culprit who caused this war." Agamemnon said with joy, and toasted again, the atmosphere of the banquet was lively and strong, and everyone changed their cups. It’s not lively, but on Mount Olympus, Athena, the protector of the Greeks, looked at the gloomy Poseidon and shook her head secretly, thinking: "O Greek, Poseidon sacrificed a son. Although it is your enemy, you have to express grief and sacrifice to Poseidon."
"But you guys are in a carnival."
"Because of this, tomorrow, you will not only lose Philothetes, but also a lot of lives. The gods and destiny have already determined that you will be severely hit tomorrow."
"Even the divine bow left by Hercules will be lost, because it disrupts the balance and will quickly break Troy."
"As for Prince Paris, it seems that he has gained some Poseidon's favor. No wonder, he buried his son, and protected the city-states and young sons of his allies."
"Prince Paris has been doing things that make the gods like, but this can't reverse your destiny, because you have offended her, and your final destiny has been decided."
"But what you do allows you to gain some kindness from the gods before you reach death."
