There was a very strange building in Babylon. It was the only building with tiles on the roof. On the antique door, there was a couplet written in Chinese characters from the Central Plains." A hundred years of heaven and earth returning to vitality, unifying the rivers and mountains, peace." There were only two stone lions at the door.
Ayis, who was disguised as a man, had a dark expression on her face. Mortira and Ares followed behind her. Mortira pulled the knocker and knocked on the door a few times. The door opened, and a yellow-skinned, black-haired girl came out.
"Ya! It was the princess! "Please come in," the girl greeted them warmly.
"Master is in the backyard! I'll take you there!"
"No need, Qiulan, go do your thing! "We'll go by ourselves, there's no need to greet us," Ayis said casually.
"Alright then! Then you guys go ahead, I'll make tea for you."
"Oh! "No, I don't want to drink that strange tea. You really don't have to entertain us." Ayis shook her head anxiously. Although Ayis liked the Central Plains, she didn't like tea.
"Hehe, alright! Then please do as you please!" Qiulan smiled bitterly and shrugged helplessly.
Ayis casually walked around the manor. She walked through the corridors, crossed the bridge, and crossed the garden. She seemed to be very familiar with the layout of the manor.
Mortira couldn't help but say,""Your Highness, some people say that Old Villa Master Xu and his disciples are descendants of the royal family of a defeated country in the Central Plains. They fled far away to our country, which is why they are so wealthy. Even our capital has to give Old Villa Master Xu some face. Some people said that they were sent by a king to search for the medicine of immortality, but they could not find it, so they could only settle down here. There are also people who say…"
"Alright, Mortira, this is her private matter. Don't talk about it, especially here, understand?”Ayis couldn't help but frown and remind him in a low voice.
"Oh!" Heidira stuck out her tongue cutely.
In the backyard, there was an old man with white hair and a beard. He wore a silk robe, and his sage-like aura made people feel very refreshing and kind. One moment, his hands were in a ball shape, and the next moment, his hands were swinging slowly, and his feet were as light as the clouds.
"Grandpa Xu, you're cultivating Qi again!
Seeing this, the old man immediately exhaled. Forget it, he then called Ayis and the others over.
"It's the princess! Please take a seat."
At this moment, the girl who had opened the door just now came over with tea.
" This tea is for Master. Princess, I've made some pear juice for you. Drink it to quench your thirst and cool off the heat," Qiulan said as she gave each of them a cup.
Mortira happily took a sip.
"Yes! Thank you, Sister Qiulan. It's so delicious!”Mortira exhaled in satisfaction. The hot weather in Babylon was unbearable, especially outside compared to the palace.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid you're here for the story! "Hehehe." Villa Head Xu sipped his tea and smiled as he stroked his long beard. Although he was over seventy years old, he didn't look old at all. He was as healthy as a fly and as strong as an ox. He was very healthy.
" Grandpa Xu, you said last time that you would tell me the story of the love between the immortals and mortals in the Central Plains." Ayis was indeed here for the foreign story.
"It's the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, right?”Old Villa Head Xu liked to tell stories to others when he had nothing to do, but his disciples had already listened to it until their ears had grown calluses. When they heard the story, their expressions changed drastically and they ran away the moment their master looked up.
"Yes, it's the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. Grandpa Xu, tell me quickly!”Ayis couldn't wait any longer.
"I want to hear it too, very much." Mortira nodded vigorously.
Ares was the only one who remained silent and watched them quietly.
"Hahaha, okay, but this story has a tragic ending! Don't be sad after hearing it!" After a short pause, Master Xu began to tell the story of Niu Lang and the Weaving Girl, which was well-known in the Central Plains.
" It's said that the Jade Emperor of the celestial heavens had seven daughters. The youngest, the seventh, weaved a good cloth and was the Weaver Girl..."
。。。。。。The dividing line of the field…。。
Outside the palace of Babylon, a tall and sturdy bearded man was pacing back and forth. Yes, it was Heracles again. He was racking his brains to think of a way to sneak into the palace, stay by Ayis 'side, and help her matchmake! At this moment, a guard holding a canvas came out of the palace. He hung the canvas on the wall and turned to leave.
It read," The palace is in urgent need of a skilled tailor to teach the princess her skills. On the day the princess finishes her studies, she will be heavily rewarded. Anyone who tries to fish in troubled waters will be sentenced to death."”
Heracles was so excited that he wanted to shout long live. He gently pointed at the notice with his hand, and the notice lit up. He used a smokescreen on the notice so that no one outside the palace could see it. But Heracles was worried again.
"I don't know how to make clothes. What should I do?”Just as he was fretting, he suddenly thought of someone." I got it!" he exclaimed.
"Ask Athena to teach me. She's the goddess of craftsmanship. The clothes she weaves are incomparably beautiful and can be said to be the best in the world!”He couldn't waste any time and had to execute it immediately. He waved his hand and disappeared into thin air.
Heracles went straight to the residence of Athena Olympus without a moment of delay.
In Athena's palace," Ka la ka la, pu " sounds were heard. It was Athena weaving " unparalleled, the world's first " cloth!
Heracles suddenly rushed in like the wind." Athena, teach me how to make clothes!”This sentence came out of nowhere.
Athena almost fell." What... What did you say? Are you talking about making clothes? Did I hear wrongly?" Athena stared at Heracles with her eyes wide open in disbelief, wondering if she had heard wrongly.
A flash of awkwardness and awkwardness appeared in Heracles 'eagle eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.
"What's so strange about it? I'm useful. I have to do something serious. I'm not even afraid of killing monsters, so why would I be afraid of this? I still have a lot of new clothes to make for my Heber!”He really didn't even need to draft a script to lie.
" Teach me," Heracles said firmly.
Although Athena was puzzled, she still earnestly taught Heracles how to make clothes. The sound of a loom was heard from the palace in Athens. The mighty Hercules was learning how to make clothes.
。。。。。The dividing line of the field…
In Grandpa Xu's manor, Ayis and Mortira had already heard the ending of the magpie bridge helping the cowherd and the Weaver Girl. Ayis and Mortila couldn't help but cry, feeling sad for the sadness of Nian Lang and Vega.
Mortira even cried and cursed," This Jade Emperor is really annoying. He's too straightforward and heartless. He's simply cold-blooded."
"Why can't the Jade Emperor show mercy to such a pair of lovers who know each other and love each other so much? "Ayis couldn't help but feel indignant, and her heart ached.
"There are indeed too many doctrines and restrictions in the Central Plains, but it's reasonable for immortals to cultivate their moral character. The Jade Emperor is in charge of the Three Realms, so he has his own difficulties! I quite agree with his approach. The country has its laws, and the heavens have their rules. Humans and gods can't do anything. Otherwise, the world will be in chaos. As for your western gods, sigh! "No comment," said Old Villa Master Xu.
" Fortunately, Xi Que helped them. Although they only see each other once a year, it's better than not seeing each other. At least it can relieve some of the pain of missing each other." Ayis wiped her tears with her hand sadly.
"I see! It was better not to see him than to see him. How torturous! Anyway, we must remember that if we can't love, we must not love. Otherwise, we will harm ourselves and others. Ares, what do you think?”Mortira was very passive and did not forget to ask Ares.
" If it were me, I would choose not to go near her. As long as I can look at her from afar, I would be satisfied. Since I can't love her, I don't have to love her in a dignified manner. Love doesn't have to be possessive," Ares said calmly. He glanced at Ayis and quickly looked away.
Mortira's words were like a bolt from the blue that woke Ayis up." I want to love so much. Can I love? Would love harm others and oneself? Should I resign myself to fate, or let the candle burn to ashes before my tears dry, and be a believer who cannot see the other side?”
