In the era of bronze humans, the world's master Zeus kept hearing the evil deeds of this generation, and he decided to pretend to be a mortal to come to the world to check it out. When he came to the ground, he found that the situation was much worse than the legendary one. One day, almost late at night, he walked into the hall of King Lycaon of Arcadia. Lycaon was not only cold and cruel. Zeus showed himself to be a god with a magical harbinger. People all knelt down and bowed to him. But Lycaon disagreed and laughed at their pious prayers. "Let's test it out," he said, "see if he is a mortal or a god!" So he secretly decided to kill him while the guest was sleeping soundly in the middle of the night. Before this he first quietly killed a hostage, a poor man sent by the Morosians. Lycaon asked someone to chop off his limbs and then throw them in the rolling water to cook them, and the rest was roasted on the fire, dedicated to strangers as dinner. Zeus took all this in his eyes, and was irritated, jumped up from the dining table, summoning a mass of revenge, and threw it into the palace courtyard of the unkind and unrighteous king. The king was extremely frightened and wanted to escape outside the palace. However, the first cry he made turned into a shrill howl; his skin turned into rough and hairy skin; his arms were supported to the ground, and they turned into two front legs. From then on, Lycaon became a bloodthirsty wolf.
Zeus returns to the Holy Olympus. He discussed with the gods and decided to eradicate this generation of shameful people. He was about to punish the entire earth with lightning, but he was worried that the kingdom of heaven would be affected and the axis of the universe would be burned. So he gave up this kind of rough revenge, put down the thunder hammer that was made for him with one-eyed look, and decided to drop heavy rain to the ground, and use floods to exterminate humanity. At this time, except for the south wind, all the winds were locked in the cave of , Russia, . Nanfeng accepted the order and flapped his wet wings straight to the ground. Nan Feng's terrible face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and his beard was heavy, as if it was dark clouds all over the sky. Hong Tao flowed from his white hair, mist covered his forehead, and water poured out from his chest. Nanfeng rose in the air, grabbed the thick clouds tightly with his hands and squeezed them hard. Suddenly, thunder rumbling and heavy rain was pouring. The storm destroyed the crops in the fields. The farmers' hopes were shattered, and the whole year of hard work was wasted.
Zeus's younger brother, the sea god Poseidon, was not willing to be lonely, and rushed to help destroy it. He summoned all the rivers and said, "You should make a tide, swallow the houses, and destroy the embankment!" They all obeyed his orders. Poseidon personally took the battle, holding the trident divine halberd, hitting the earth, opening the way for the flood. The river is surging and unstoppable. The flood of floods surged into the fields like wild beasts, rushing down large linings, temples and houses. The water continued to rise, and soon the palace was flooded, and even the spire of the church was swept into a turbulent whirlpool. In an instant, the water and land were indistinguishable, and the entire earth was vast and boundless.
Faced with the surging flood, humans are desperately looking for a way to save their lives. Some climbed to the top of the mountain, some drove wooden boats and sailed on flooded roofs. The water kept flowing through the vineyards and the bottom of the boat swept across the grape trellis. The fish struggled among the branches, and the wild boars fleeing all over the mountains were swallowed up by the waves and drowned. The crowds were washed away by the flood, and those who survived later starved to death on the bare mountaintop. In Forkas, there are two peaks of a high mountain that are exposed to the water, which is Mount Parnasos. Prometheus 's son Diocalion received a warning from his father in advance and built a big ship. When the flood came, he and his wife Pira sailed to Parnasos. No man and woman who were created was kinder or more religious than them. Zeus summoned the flood to flood the earth and took revenge on humanity. He looked down at the earth from heaven and saw that among the millions of people, there was only a poor couple floating on the water. The couple was kind and believed in Godly. Zeusping extinguished his anger. He called the north wind, which dispelled the dark clouds and thick mist, allowing the sky to see the light again. Seeing this, Poseidon, who was in charge of the ocean, also put down the trident , causing the rolling sea waves to retreat, the sea water tamely retreated under the high embankment, and the river water also returned to the riverbed.The treetops were exposed from the deep water, and the leaves were covered with sludge. The mountains reappear, the plains stretch, and the earth recovers.
Dukalion looked around. The earth was deserted and muddy, as silent as a grave. Seeing all this, he couldn't help but shed tears and said to his wife Pira, "Dear, I look into the distance, and there is less than a living person behind me. We are the only humans on the earth, and the others are swallowed up by the flood, but it is difficult for us to survive. Every cloud I see frightened me. Even if all dangers have passed, what can we two lonely people do in this desolate world? Alas, how great it would be if my father Prometheus taught me the ability to create human beings and the technology to give my soul to clay men!" After hearing him, his wife was very sad, and the two couldn't help crying. They had no idea, so they had to kneel in front of the semi-desolate altar, begged to the goddess Themis , "Goddess, please tell us how to create a destructive generation of human beings. Ah, help the desolate world regenerate!"
"Leave my altar," the goddess' voice replied, "Put on a veil, untie the belt, and then leave your mother's bones behind you!"
The two of them were very surprised and confused when they heard this mysterious words. Pila first broke the silence and said, "Neither goddess, forgive me. I have to go against your will, because I can't throw away my mother's remains, and I don't want to offend her ghost!"
But Dirkalion's heart suddenly became clear, and he immediately understood, so he comforted his wife with kind words and said, "If my understanding is not wrong, then the goddess's order did not tell us to do disrespectful things. The earth is our kind mother, and the stone must be her bones. Pila, we should throw the stone behind us!"
Although this was said, the two of them were still skeptical, and they thought they might as well try it. So they turned around, covered their heads, then loosened their belts, and then threw the stone behind them as the goddess' orders. A miracle happened: the stone suddenly no longer hard or crunchy, but became soft, huge, and gradually took shape. The human appearance began to appear, but it had not yet been fully formed, as if the artist had just carved out of marble. The moist soil on the stone turned into muscles, the strong and hard stone turned into bones, and the patterns between the stones turned into human veins. Strangely, all the stones thrown by Diocalion turned into men, while all the stones thrown by his wife Pila turned into women. To this day, humans do not deny their origins and origins. This is a strong, hardworking and hardworking generation.
Human beings always remember what substance they are caused by.
