Ares does not want to fall in love [Greek mythology]

Seven years later.

In a small town on the border of Cyprus, a black-haired young man was carrying a tiger skin burden on his shoulders, which attracted the attention of passers-by.

Not because of the appearance of the black-haired youth.Although he had a handsome face, the kind that would make a little girl's heart flutter, but for some reason, it was always easy to forget.

People pay more attention to the tiger skin on his shoulder - what is so precious that it is wrapped in tiger skin?No, no, no matter what it is, it shouldn't be wrapped in precious tiger skin, right?

Just wondering, I saw the young man found a seat in the crowded market, and sat down cross-legged, not bothering with the dust on the ground.As soon as he opened the tiger skin, everyone's eyes looked straight——

I saw that his baggage was filled with furs of various large animals. Although it was handled cleanly, it still made people feel cold at first glance—what kind of force is it to hunt and kill so many wild bears and wild boars? , Tiger!

It is said that wealth comes from danger, it seems that this young man is going to get rich!Thinking of the rare items that the aristocrats love to collect most, everyone looked at the young man with a hint of envy.

Once the stall was set up, the young man began to look around.

Seeing how impatient he was, the woman selling fruit next to him shook her head and said, "Young man, don't be impatient when doing business, your things are expensive, and what you are doing is a big business, so take your time!"

The young man frowned, as if impatient to listen, but still nodded to the woman to show his thanks.Seeing that he was still looking around, the woman thought he was impetuous, shook her head, and went to greet the new guests.

The little flower seller was walking on the street, and when she saw the handsome face of the young man, she couldn't help but like it, and planned to go up and talk to him.The young man's eyes lit up, he looked to the left side of the street, waved and shouted, "Adonis!"

It turned out that this man was Ares, the god of war.

The handsome plant god slowly walked over from the crowd and smiled at Ares.Because of the blindness of divine power, people are not deeply impressed by their extraordinary looks, but they will still be stunned at first glance.

The blond male god walked up to Ares and handed him the wheat cake in his hand: "It's been a long time, Ares."

Ares took the wheat cake in his hand, took a bite, and said, "Have you eaten?"

Adonis reached out his hand to wipe the crumbs from the corner of his mouth, and said, "I haven't eaten it yet, because I wanted to let you eat it soon." His eyes were focused and sincere, and anyone who saw it would believe his words.Only he himself knows that he came back in time to declare his sovereignty because he saw the flower girl approaching Ares.

When Ares heard this, he handed the wheat cake that he had eaten to Adonis, and motioned him to take a bite too: "If you haven't eaten yet, let's eat together! After selling these skins, we will have a full meal." , buy something, and set off for Sparta."

Merchant ships bound for Sparta stopped at the village's harbor.Ares has been planning for this day for a long time.Although life in Cyprus is good, and hunting every day is also very interesting, but he has not seen the army and soldiers for a long time.He wanted to go to Sparta to see those heroic warriors and regain his blood as the god of war.

Adonis knew that he just wanted to fight.It's not that he didn't invite him to fight, but Ares seemed more willing to hunt with him.As for fighting, you have to go to Sparta to find trouble.

Adonis always indulged him in these matters.But when Ares was about to summon the chariot, Adonis suddenly suggested that he wanted to take a boat to experience the travel of mortals.Although Ares felt it was unnecessary, he had some expectations and agreed.

The way the two of you were eating wheat cakes one bite at a time caught the flower girl's eyes, and her expression suddenly became subtle.In particular, she also noticed that the blond young man who passed by later, had been glaring at her intentionally or unintentionally, and felt the embarrassment of being seen through spontaneously.The shy flower girl hurriedly raised the flower basket to cover her face, and ran away in small steps.

To Adonis, resolving his love rival is not a joyful thing, but Ares' unreserved little actions, even after living together for so many years, will still be sweet to his heart.

The two sat at the stall for more than two hours. There were many passers-by, but most of them were ordinary people. They only looked at these leathers and estimated their prices, but they definitely had no intention of buying them for home decoration.

Knowing that Ares was bored, Adonis chatted with him and talked to him about topics he was interested in. The two talked and laughed, and the time passed a lot faster.

Suddenly, a black shadow covered the sky and covered the sky: "Hey, have you got permission to set up a stall here?" It was a muscular young man with a swollen face, and he spoke domineeringly.

Ares didn't understand, so: "What permission?"

Seeing his reaction, the fruit seller next to him quickly asked her husband to move the fruit stand a little farther away.She didn't expect these two young men to be so bold, they dared to set up a stall here without obtaining permission from the noble man's mansion.

Sure enough, the man who collected the fees for the nobles raised his eyebrows in disbelief, and cursed: "Are you pretending to be stupid, huh?!" As he spoke, he lifted his foot forward and was about to step on Ah Reese's stall, to grind the cleanly washed animal skins.

Ares, who is simple and rude, has always been too lazy to speak when he can do it.He casually picked up a half-length wooden stick on the ground, and knocked it on the man's leg.It looked harmless, but it made the man scream.

The fearful vendors all hid away. They were amazed when they saw the movement here, and they didn't understand why the man who used to show his prestige in front of them suddenly acted so exaggeratedly.They don't know Ares's power is boundless, and they are still wondering, just such a light tap, as for screaming so loudly?Do you want to blackmail people?

Hearing the whispers around him, the man who had always used his power and prestige felt that he couldn't hold back his face. He yelled: "Do you know who I am? You dare to do something to me without paying the dues, you are dying!"

Ares turned a deaf ear to his yelling and said, "I don't know why I have to share the fee with you. This land is owned by Earth Mother Gaia, and if there is a fee, she is the only one worthy to charge me."

What Ares said was very tough, but it was nonsense to the man's ears.He laughed loudly: "You poor boy, do you believe in God? You ask whether money and power believe in God? I'll let you know who is the biggest in this town today!"

As soon as the man beckoned, a few young men who had been waiting by the side rushed up and wanted to attack the two male gods.However, they are just ordinary flesh and blood, how can they be the opponents of the two gods?Even if Ares and Adonis didn't use divine power, they were easily subdued only by fighting skills.

The vendors who were doing business cried out in their hearts when they saw the men who used to be fierce and aggressive being beaten and beaten.Their life was already difficult, and they were exploited by the noble lord. They finally sold some small things, did some small business, and had to pay the noble lord.The apportionment fee is rising year by year, and they will have little left after paying the apportionment fee. If the business is not good, they may lose all their money.

Such a day is really too hard!

The man who was knocked down was getting up in embarrassment when he saw the woman at the fruit stand secretly looking at him with gloating eyes.His anger rose gradually, thinking that he couldn't beat these two young men with strange strength, could he even beat a woman?

"What are you looking at!" The man shouted, stepped forward, and overturned the fruit stand.Fresh fruits rolled on the ground, some rolled into the ditch and became dirty, and some were knocked on the stones, and the flesh was broken.

This... How can people sell this? !

The woman was dumbfounded for a while, and burst into tears.

Hearing the woman's cries, Ares felt very bored in his heart. Seeing that the man wanted to kick the woman who was covering her face and crying, he kicked over and broke the man's leg bone .

The man was taken aback for a moment, and then screamed miserably. While screaming, he rolled up his sleeves to fight Ares.I only heard Ares yelling: "Use your own strength to bully a woman, and I will deprive you of your strength!"

The man said angrily: "Do you think you are a god! Arrogant brat, you kicked and broke my leg today, I will fight you hard!" His fist seemed to be stuffed with cotton, and when he swung it lightly, he yelled in pain when he hit Ares.

His expression changed from anger to surprise and then to fear, and he said, "You...what kind of monster are you, what did you do to me?!"

Adonis looked at him coldly, and said: "It seems that the punishment is too light. You angered the God of War, and you dare to insult him!"

A green light flashed in Adonis' hand and flew into the man's arm.A small green bud grew out of the man's muscle, and the man looked at the bud in fear. All this was beyond his understanding, which made him dare not touch the strange thing on his arm casually.

I just heard Adonis say: "Every time you do evil, this little shoot will grow an inch, and its root will grow an inch into your arm. When it pierces your heart, you will die Huang Quan."

Hearing this, the man trembled like chaff.Fear and fear intertwined in his heart, and finally turned into fear.He broke down emotionally, burst into tears, and shouted that he was extremely pitiful. If he didn't become a lackey of the nobles, he could only be cooked and eaten by the nobles. There was nothing he could do.

Ares exposed his lies: "If you are not a lackey of the nobles, there is nothing you can do. Are the people on this street dead? But—" He changed the subject and warned: "Go back and tell the noble master you serve , this land belongs to the land mother, Gaia, and no one has the right to use the land to collect fees, otherwise they will be punished by God!"

God's punishment has come, the man dare not believe it, he hastily called several of his subordinates to help him, but only at this time did he realize that all his subordinates had run away.He had no choice but to drag his injured leg and limped to the nobleman's mansion to convey the meaning of the God of War to the nobleman he was loyal to.

Human beings have a natural reverence for the gods, especially when they clearly hear the blond-haired male god call the black-haired male god "God of War".There is only one God of War in this world, the only one—Ares, the son of God King and Queen of Heaven!That warlike killing god, that bloodthirsty madman!

Everyone fell to the ground one after another, reverently welcoming the coming of the gods.Although they were shouting in their hearts, Aphrodite, the beauty god, let this evil spirit get out of here quickly!

Aphrodite, who is now married to the underworld, of course did not hear their call.Fortunately, Ares didn't have the slightest interest in their terrified appearance. He frowned and raised his legs to leave.

"Aris, wait for me."

Ares turned his head in confusion, only to see a divine power released from Adonis' hand, the woman's stall was restored to its original state, and fresh fruits were put on the shelves again.

The crying woman saw the fruits flying back to the booth through her tearful eyes, and they turned into freshness again. She couldn't help but turn her grief into joy, and shouted: "My god! Thank you for the gift of the gods!"

Adonis ignored the woman's prayers.Like Ares, he doesn't have much compassion for these mortals.But the woman at the fruit stand shouldn't suffer because of them, so he took the shot anyway.

The two male gods failed to sell their furs, and Ares completely lost interest in setting up a stall to sell things.In the end, the two exchanged a piece of ruby ​​for some coins at the gem merchant, and bought a ticket for the merchant ship.

It was just an unintentional act by the two male gods, but they didn't know how big waves it caused in this small town that believed in the god of beauty!

People believe in gods, originally to give themselves something to sustenance, and also long to be favored by the gods.But they have believed in the God of Beauty for so many years, and they have never seen the most beautiful goddess in the world come to the world to solve their problems.And Ares, the god of war, and the male god in charge of the power of plants—someone guessed his identity later, he is Adonis, the god of plants, but he really came to them!

Soon, people spread the story of the two gods all over the town, built temples for them with gongs and drums, and enshrined them.Because the transportation in the small town is quite convenient, this miracle was spread all over the place by merchant ships, bringing the belief in the god of war and the god of plants to the other side of the sea.

Of course, this is a follow-up.
