Chapter 207 Isn’t Gaia a beauty?
"Okay, let's rest here tonight."
After Hermes took Eros to visit Arcadia, he found a place to back up the mountain. cave.
There are still some signs that other people have lived in the cave, but it has been abandoned for a long time.
“Because there is neither a temple nor a king, naturally no one will come to entertain us, so we have to do it ourselves.”
Hermes said this and cleaned the cave with ease.
These words also made Yi'e a little discouraged. In an ideal land like Arcadia, she had to do everything herself.
Is this any different from camping in the wild?
“Don’t rely on others, don’t need anyone’s help or support, and do everything on your own. This is true freedom.”
Prometheus spoke to Io with some deep meaning. said.
"The people here are independent individuals. They do not work for anyone except themselves."
"This is their absolute freedom and beauty, because people are always restricted by fetters , cannot be free.”
The city symbolizes order and restraint.
Home symbolizes family and love, but it also symbolizes bondage and concern.
The wilderness symbolizes freedom. Because there is nothing and you have to rely on yourself for everything, you are free.
After understanding the meaning of Prometheus' words, Io suddenly felt that the rumored utopian Arcadia was no longer so beautiful.
The conversation between the two naturally fell into the ears of Eros.
But what Prometheus said was indeed what Eros was thinking.
During the day, he and Hermes wandered around Arcadia, and it was indeed as rumored.
It is both free and beautiful. There are no restrictions on people, and there are no unnecessary connections between people.
Children will become independent when they reach adulthood, and partners maintain their own division of labor, which is very coordinated and stable.
But it is precisely because it is so coordinated and stable that Eros feels a little weird.
They seem to have no extra desires or goals, and are full of satisfaction and relief for their current life.
After finishing the work to support my life, I would rather choose to lie in a daze under the tree, think about life or be lazy and sleep.
They will not choose to work a little longer or expand their houses bigger.
It's not that there's anything wrong with this kind of contentment, it's just that Eros thinks it's a bit weird.
But Eros doesn't care about this now. He is not cruel enough to destroy himself just because he doesn't like it.
I just understand a little bit why most people come to Arcadia and praise the life here, but always leave.
After all, failure is only temporary. Unless life is really hopeless, human beings will still choose to work a little harder.
Of course, it may just be that the outsiders who have integrated here have been assimilated into the same look.
Eros sat down without thinking too much for the time being.
Across the table, Hermes was pouring wine for him, which he didn't know where he had come from.
"Stealing it again? Your behavior is not at all in line with Acadia's self-reliant style."
"I stole it based on my ability, how can it not be regarded as self-reliant" "
Hermes has no shame. As a god of thieves, she has long been full of shame.
She stole Apollo's cattle when she was just born, and then in front of Zeus, she had the audacity to say that she had not stolen it.
I touched a bottle of wine or something, which was no problem at all.
"How do you feel? Is it like you have been to a crowded place, but you don't seem to be there?"
Hermes said something incomprehensible, but Eros understood her mean.
"It's indeed strange, but I don't care about Arcadia's affairs."
"I'm here to find Garmanion, where are the things? Or is it your business?"
Eros urged without forgetting his original intention.
“I have a tight schedule and a lot of things to do, and there are still many things to do.”
“Hey, why are you so anxious?”
Hermes curled his lips. . "Aren't you curious about how it is done?"
Hearing her words, Eros immediately shook his head.
"I'm not curious. I'm not curious about the things here at all. They are all complicated and boring things anyway."
"You should tell me the real thing."
Without the beauty, Eros's mind is all on business, and there is nothing to pay attention to Arcadia.
Seeing that Eros really wasn't curious at all, Hermes stopped talking about these things.
After taking a sip of wine, he leaned lazily on the table and said to Eros.
"Gamanion, that thing does not exist in Arcadia."
"That thing can only be produced deep in the earth, in the embrace of the Earth Mother. On the ground is There won’t be. ”
The embrace of Mother Earth?
Eros had a bad premonition. He was looking for Gaia, right?
Who knows, just when he thought this, he saw Hermes raising his finger towards him.
“That’s right! You have to find it in the realm of the Original Mother Goddess!”
“And in Arcadia, there is a cave that leads directly to the depths of the earth, which can directly guide you to Go to the throne of Gaia!”
Hearing this, Eros subconsciously refused.
He goes to Gaia's throne? !
This is not how you seek death. Eros consciously went to Gaia. There are only two possibilities.
One is to be beaten to death directly, and the other is to be captured by Gaia and used as a breeding machine to be bred to death.
Eros killed Python, beat Typhon, and tricked Echidna. He was unclear about Zeus, and the basic hatred value with Gaia was almost constant.
At this time, let him take the initiative to go to Gaia's territory?
On the ground, Eros is not worried, Gaia will not come up without any problems.
But taking the initiative to go deep underground, the domain of Gaia, Eros really just went into the toilet with a lantern.
“You should be the one to do this, right?”
Eros looked at Hermes with some confusion, seeming to understand why Zeus arranged for Hermes to wait here. He did.
“As a friend, you can help me steal some Gamanium. It doesn’t seem to be a problem, right?”
With Hermes, the God of Thieves, going to Gaia to steal something, isn't it a small problem?
"Hey, I'm just a messenger. I can do something with you. Isn't it too difficult for me to go?"
Hermes showed a embarrassment. look.
"Don't think too much of me. I don't dare to step into the realm of the original mother goddess."
But Eros didn't believe her words at all.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now, what about the other thing?"
"Oh, the other thing, it's actually nothing."
Hermes looked at it with a smile. Eros, said.
"Actually, Father God wants you to go to the Prime Mother Goddess and steal something."
"Huh????"
Eros's face was full of doubts, as if he didn't quite understand.
"No? Didn't you say that there is a beauty?"
"Yes?"
Hermes said calmly.
“Isn’t the Mother Goddess Gaia a beauty? Isn’t she?”
The abstract female junior high school student who just finished the high school entrance examination has made a comeback. She is the same age as my sister but has been writing a book for a year and a half. It really makes me sigh.
