When the spring breeze between her and Zeus passed, she stayed with her husband and soon gave birth to two pairs of twins. Bocks and Helen were born to Zeus, and Castro and Krita Imestra were born to her husband. Helen grew up to be the first beauty in the world, which triggered the Trojan War. Castro is a boxing master, and Baucus is proficient in equestrian. Both of them are famous for their bravery. One day, a brother and another pair of twins fought, and four people fought for a cow. Castro, who was seriously injured, groaned in pain, and Boxer burst into tears and was at a loss, expressing his willingness to die with his brother. Zeus appeared and said to him, You are my son and the God of mankind. If you promise to go back to the Olympic Games with me, I will promise you. But if you want to share your fate with your brother, You have to spend half your life underground and half your life in the sky. You must choose a path. Boxer didn't want to lose his brother, so he chose the latter. From then on, he accompanied Castro on earth and suddenly returned to the sky. Later, when a Greek ship was sailing, it was caught in a storm. Stars appeared on the heads of two brothers, and the storm stopped. Gemini has also become the guardian star of navigation.

The goddess Hella (Juno) was very unhappy when she heard this and sent a scorpion to kill Oliver. Later, both of them lost and were placed on both sides of heaven. Therefore, when people look at the constellations nowadays, they will find that whenever Scorpio rises, Oliver has hidden under the horizon. Conversely, when Orion appears in the sky, Scorpio is also there. Another myth says that Olivier is the son of Poseidon and Oreglia, the queen of Amazon. He fell in love with my melody, Princess Kivo, and wanted to marry her. Xiao Ye Bean, the father of my melody, objected and asked Oliver to finish many difficult tasks first.

Larry's harp was carried by musician orpheus. Orpheus's father is Apollo, the god of sun and music, and his mother is Kalliope, the goddess of singing. It is natural that orpheus became a genius of Greek music. Legend has it that when he sang while playing the harp, not only people but also the animals in the mountains were fascinated and the rocks softened. Orpheus fell in love with Eurydice, the spirit of spring. They got married with the blessing of the gods, but the happy marriage did not last long. One day, Eurydice and her friends were walking on the grassland. Her foot was suddenly bitten by a poisonous snake, so she died. Orpheus was heartbroken. He couldn't figure out how to revive Eurydice, so he finally went to the underworld with a harp. Burroughs, the fierce gatekeeper of the underworld, and the indifferent ferryman of Styx were moved by orpheus's elegy, so they especially let him pass. Orpheus came to Pluto, the keeper of hades, played the harp and sang his heart out, asking Pluto to let his wife return to the ground (die) again. Prado refused coldly at first, but was moved by his enthusiasm and agreed to his request. Prado told orpheus not to look back before leaving the underworld as a condition for returning his wife. Orpheus was in high spirits and led Eurydice to the ground. It was far underground, and orpheus began to worry. Why can't you hear Eurydice's footsteps? When he saw the light on the ground, he couldn't help looking back. In a twinkling, Yuri only uttered a gentle cry and was pulled back to the underworld. Orpheus chased his wife crazily, but this time even the ferryman of Styx wouldn't let him cross the river. Orpheus played the harp in dismay and wandered between Shan Ye. He doesn't approach the woman who pursues Eurydice illusion, and he is trapped and leads to Thracian woman.

Resentment, they tortured him to death at night in bacchanalia, and then dumped his body in the river. Orpheus's harp played a sad tune alone and went down the river.

Juno, Cupid's jealous wife, sent an assassin to kill Hercules, the child who slept in the bed, but the child was so powerful that he strangled these people and grew into the strongest man in the world. Later, victimized by this hateful stepmother Juno's plot, Hercules had to complete a contract to be free, that is, to perform twelve errands for King Eurystheus, including killing Nimia's lion and Sidura, a multi-headed monster, and so on. Later, he won the heart of the beautiful girl Diana. One day, the girl was tied up by Kenda, who was half-man, half-manesus, but Hercules heard her cry and shot him with an arrow. But Nessus cheated the girl by giving her a bag of her own blood before she died. If Hercules' empathy doesn't love him, he can change his mind with this little blood. One day, the girl thought Hercules was no longer interested in her, so she poured the bag of blood on him. Blood burned her skin and brought great pain to Hercules. The little girls knew that they had done something wrong and hanged themselves, but Hercules set himself on fire in grief, and his father Cupid put Hercules in the sky. Sagittarius There lived a centaur on Mount Tessali in northern Greece. The remy martin monster has a human upper body and a horse lower body. Most of them are running around in Shan Ye and behaving rudely. But Kay Long Xing is an exception. He is polite, intelligent, proficient in music, superb medical skills and good at hunting. It is said that Apollo, the god of the sun and music, and Amies, the goddess of the moon and hunting, taught him these talents. Qilong lives in a cave and grows herbs to help the sick and help the children who have lost their parents. These children include Jason, commander of Argo, Ayers Gulap, a famous Greek doctor, and Yagiri, a warrior in the Trojan War. Ayers Gulaps's father is Apollo and his mother is Coronius, Princess of Thessaly. Apollo loved Konic wholeheartedly, but Konic had another love. Apollo was furious when he learned this from the bird's song, so he picked up his bow and arrow and pointed it at the cornice. On her deathbed, Klonis confessed her crime and told her that she was pregnant with Apollo's child. Apollo immediately regretted his attitude, and quickly took the fetus out of Koronis's body and sent it to Qilong, where it was also shot by an arrow. The main god Zeus felt sorry for the death of the dragon rider, so he joined the dragon rider in the constellation as an archer and became Sagittarius. It is said that the ancient Thessalonians were good at riding horses and hunting, so this myth came into being. Other remy martin monsters have become another constellation, Centauri, which can be seen on the southern horizon in summer and at night. The Centauri monster showed the posture of stabbing a neighbor wolf with a pike (becoming a jackal lupus).

swan

Zeus, the highest god in Greek mythology, always looks down on the world from the sky. Although Zeus married Hera, she saw that beautiful women often became their prisoners, so Hera had to polish her eyes and pay attention to her husband's behavior in this regard.

Leda, originated from Tindarius, king of Sparta in northern Greece, is a well-known peerless beauty. Once Zeus saw Leda's bathing posture in the sky and was immediately fascinated by her. The gods turned to Aphrodite (Venus) for help and became a swan. Aphrodite became an eagle, chasing the swan that Zeus became. The swan fled to Rita for help, and the trembling swan was pitiful. Rita held it tightly in her arms and caressed it, and Zeus got his wish. Soon, Rita gave birth to two big eggs An egg hatched the twin brothers Caster and Pollux. Brother Castor is proficient in tactics, and brother Pollux is good at fighting. The two brothers are close brothers and often take risks together. Custer is the son of Tindarius, and he can't escape death. Because Polex is the son of Zeus, he can live forever. Later, Caster died because of the same betrayal, and the surviving Polex asked Zeus to let him die with Caster. It is said that in this way, the two became bow twins. Another egg hatched Helen and Clytaemestra. Helen, the daughter of Zeus, has a goddess-like beauty and naturally attracts countless men to propose marriage when she grows up. The king of Sparta, afraid of causing disputes, asked Helen to choose the object, and Menelaus chose it.

Menelaus won the hearts of the people. The quiet life between Menelaus and Helen did not last long, because Prince Paris of Roy fell in love with Helen at first sight when he visited Sparta and brought her back to Troy. When Menelaus learned that he was furious, he went to consult Agamemnon, king of Mycenae. Agamemnon's wife is Helen's sister Claritana Sicha. They recruited reinforcements from Sinora to attack Troy. Legend has it that the Trojan War broke out.

In ancient times, there was an Ethiopian kingdom in Africa. The king is called Cepheus, and the queen is called Cassiopeia. The queen is beautiful and conceited. Once she walked by the sea and said, "I am more beautiful than nereus in the sea! This sentence reached the ears of Poseidon, the father of Nero. In a rage, Poseidon sent Katos, a sea monster, to attack the Ethiopian coast and seize it. The coastal area suddenly became a water country. Severus was deeply troubled and prayed to the gods for guidance. The gods told him that in order to appease Poseidon's anger, he had to sacrifice his daughter Andlau Moda. The king and queen panicked, but Andlau Moda was very brave and willing to die for his country. Andromeda was tied to a rock on the coast. At this time, it happened that Poerxiusi, the prince of Argos, passed by and was gentle with Ender.

He was surprised and went up to him and asked, "How did a beautiful person like you become like this? When Andrew Jourda began to explain the story, dark clouds suddenly appeared on the sea, a tsunami came and a huge monster suddenly appeared. Andromeda unconsciously closed her eyes because of excessive surprise. Poerxiusi bravely drew his sword. When the monster saw Poerxiusi reflected on the sea, it opened its mouth and prepared to swallow it. Poerxiusi swoops down from behind the monster, raises his sword, and reveals Medusa's head. When the monster saw it, it immediately turned into a huge rock. Medusa is a monster living on the edge of the earth. Anyone who sees her will turn to stone. At that time, Bai Xiu defeated Melissa and was ready to go home. Unexpectedly, she saved Andromeda on the way, then married her and returned to Greece triumphantly. The characters and monsters in the above stories gather in the starry sky in autumn and winter. For example, near the North Pole of the celestial sphere, Cepheus and Cassiopeia, representing the king and queen of Ethiopia, can be seen side by side. Andromeda is in the south, Perseus is in the east of Andromeda, and Cetus, representing sea monsters, is in the south. The flying horse to the west of Andromeda is said to represent a winged horse. It was born out of the gushing blood when Poerxiusi cut Medusa's neck.

Pegasus constellation

A fairy tale in Ethiopia. When Poerxiusi beheaded Medusa, the head of the banshee, blood flowed into the sea from Medusa's neck and mixed with the hippocampus, so she jumped out of a white flying horse with wings-Pegasus. Neptune was once considered the father of Petraeus. Legend has it that Athena once caught the flying horse and took it to Mount Heliken, a mountain belonging to the Muse. During the leap, Pei Jiasu's hoof kicked down the hill, and the famous Lingquan Spring began to gush out. At that time, it was said that Hippocrene was the inspiration for all poets and writers. Later, Pegasus became a good friend of Bellerophon Ming, a young warrior in the Greek port city of Corinth. With the help of Pegas, Bailey Luo Ming accomplished great achievements such as the assassination of a terrible monster Chimera (lion's head, sheep's body and dragon's tail). Finally, Bailey Luoming became very arrogant and wanted to ride a flying horse over Olympus to join the gods. Zeus sent a bull fly. (Note: The Kingdom of Ethiopia is not Ethiopia today, but a dynasty originally located on the north coast of Africa).

Capricorn palace. Compare CAPRICORNUS

The ancient Greeks really thought about animals. They believe that there are a group of animals named "sex maniac" who have goat's feet and horns and a full face of beard, and the shepherd god "Pan" is one of them. Pan likes taking a nap very much and hates noisy sounds. Once frightened by something, he is often at a loss. It is said that the word "panic" comes from his name. On one occasion, Pan and Xiannv who came down from the mountain met unexpectedly. Xilinx is a follower of Artemis, the goddess of hunting. Celine Cox was beautiful, and Pan fell in love with her at first sight. But Celine Cox saw Pan's rudeness and ran away in fear. The feet of the fairy water lily in the forest are faster than expected, and Pan, who runs with sheep's hoofs, can't catch up. The two men chased each other to the river bank, and Xilinx turned to his father Heshen for help because of despair. Pan thought he finally caught Celine's arm, but I grabbed a reed by the river and the fairy water lily disappeared. Pan was confused for a moment, but later he came to his senses. He cut off several reed stalks and twisted them together to make a flute. Pan named this flute Xilinx and played it devoutly. Today, this kind of reed flute is also called "Pan Dizi", which is a flute made by cutting reed stalks into short tubes and arranging them in musical order. Some people say it is the prototype of an organ. Pan has been carrying this flute and playing beautiful music. When the gods met on the Nile, Pan played the flute as usual. Unexpectedly, the monster Tifeng appeared, and the gods were frightened by the terrible roar of this monster, and they all turned into animals running for their lives. In desperation, Pan flew into the shallows by the river in the form of a magical power. Unexpectedly, the submerged part of his body turned into a fishtail, while the exposed part remained the same. Legend has it that Zeus turned the disc into a constellation according to its later appearance. The origin of Capricorn can be traced back to an earlier period, that is, the 7th-6th century BC, when the sun was in Capricorn during the winter solstice. In the northern hemisphere, the sun is at the lowest point in the south from the winter solstice, and gradually climbs to the north from winter to the future. Some people compare this sun to a goat climbing a rock.

crow

Crow was originally the beloved golden bird of Apollo, the sun god. It is said that Apollo had a quite famous love affair with a princess named Koronis. It is said that they had a son named Asclepius, who is now Ophiuchus. then

Apollo gradually distrusted Koronis, so he sent the golden bird around him as a spy. Because the golden bird lied that the princess betrayed him, Apollo shot Koronis with an arrow. When he was heartbroken, the sun god knew the truth and turned the golden bird black angrily, so that it could not speak and could only say "Ah!" Sound, this is the origin of crows. Another interesting legend is that one day Apollo sent a golden bird to the stream to get a glass of spring water. When the golden bird arrived at the stream, it accidentally found a fig that smelled quite sweet. Because it was still green, the golden bird sat down and waited until the fig was ripe. In order to explain his disloyalty, the golden bird not only brought back a cup of crater spring water to Apollo, but also took out a hydra from its paw and lied that he was attacked by the hydra in the stream, which delayed the time. Later, Apollo learned the truth, punished them and put them in the sky. Now the golden bird is sitting next to this glass of water, but it can't drink a mouthful of water all the time because there are water snakes around.

Long snake

Sidura is a nine-headed sea monster who lives in the deep valley of Leluna. It is said that if one head is cut off, two heads will grow.

Finally, he pinned the snake with a big stone and finally killed the sea monster.

During his stay in Dura, Khyron came to help, but he was accidentally shot by Hercules, who died of a long snake venom. Although he won't die, he has suffered extremely. Later, Khyron asked the gods to let him get rid of this endless pain. He was willing to trade his life for the release of Prometheus, the Titan God. Prometheus stole the flame from the gods and gave it to mankind, and tied it to a stone. The eagle greedily devoured his constantly reborn liver. Finally, Zeus finally agreed to let Khyron die. Zeus wanted to put Khyron in heaven to commemorate him, but later, because the northern sky was full of constellations, he had to put him in the southern sky.

peacock

Legend has it that Haila suspected that a calf was transformed by a lover of her husband, so she sent a monster argus with only 65,438+000 eyes to watch her. Her suspicion is correct. Zeus turned his lover Io into a calf in order to deceive Hella. Later, in order to save Io, Zeus ordered Hermans to assassinate the 100-eyed monster.
