Reversing Greek Mythology

Hometown - these are two such lovely words.

If he could return to the city of Thebes and be buried on the land of the Kingdom of Thebes after his death, Oedipus would be willing to crawl back to the Thebes area on his hands and knees.

It is a pity that ten years ago, even though Oedipus begged Creon and told Creon that a blind man was no threat to his throne, Creon still drove Oedipus away without mercy.

Seeing Oedipus's shaking reaction of shortness of breath and trembling body, Luo Yin continued.

"Now you don't want to return to Thebes because you don't want to see one son killing another son, and you don't want to see the two sons kill each other and die together. But you can also stop the two sons by returning to Thebes. Hurt each other.”

Oedipus lowered his head and said with a complicated expression.

"Haemon! The fight between Polynices and Etecles was started by your father Creon. And my two sons are enemies who compete with you for the throne. Do you really want to Save them?"

"Polynices and Etecles are not qualified to be my enemies, so I will not regard them as a threat to the throne. For the sake of sisters Antigone and Insmene, I am willing to stop Polynices The fratricide of Nices and Etecles.”

Having said this, Luo Yin came to Oedipus, stretched out his right hand and pressed on his shoulder to persuade him.

"Come back to your hometown with me! I will let you live in the city of Thebes from now on, and be buried in the land of Thebes after your death. I will also wash away your sins as a king and free you from your status as a sinner. "

Tick-tick-tick——

Tick-tick-tick——

Big tears flowed from Oedipus' empty eye sockets.

He couldn't help but kneel in front of Luo Yin and asked excitedly.

"Merciful Haemon! Are you really willing to help me prevent my two sons from killing each other, and allow me to live in the city of Thebes and be buried in my hometown after my death?"

Luo Yin hurriedly helped Oedipus up and said.

"Please don't kneel down and worship me. You are not only my cheap uncle, but also my cheap father-in-law!"

After helping Oedipus up, Luo Yin looked at Antigone and Insmene and said.

"Sisters! Now King Oedipus has agreed to return to his hometown. Come home with me!"

"go home--"

Although she wandered with Oedipus for ten years, Antigone did not forget that the palace of Thebes was her real home, where she was born and raised, where she spent time with her parents and siblings. All memories.

After ten years of wandering, Antigone finally returned to her hometown with her father. Antigone showed a bright and sweet smile and said to Luo Yin.

"Brother Haemon, you are such a good person, just as kind as you were ten years ago."

Hearing Antigone's words, Insemene whispered.

"When he wants to eat you, you know he's doing it for himself."

After finishing their complaints, Antigone and Insmene helped Oedipus to the carriage carriage.

The four girls and Oedipus sat firmly in the carriage, and Luo Yin immediately returned to the driver's seat and drove the carriage to the city of Thebes.

The villagers of Cynos did not need to force Oedipus to leave the goddess's sacred grove. They all smiled happily and watched the carriage drive away.

It was not until Luo Yin's carriage crossed the border and entered the Thebes area that Theseus, who received the news, belatedly entered the village of Cynos.

After learning from the villagers that the old blind man who desecrated the sacred grove not only had the majesty of a king, but also had two daughters as beautiful as goddesses and of noble temperament, Theseus could only secretly lament his bad luck.

Thebes region.

On the plain road leading to the city of Thebes.

Luo Yin was driving a carriage in front of the carriage. Antigone, Insmene, Ariadne, and Hypercybele were looking at each other in the carriage. Ariadne's eyes were filled with disdain for Antigone and Yin. Smene's hostility.

The cheerful Antigone asked proactively.

"My name is Antigone, and I am the cousin of Brother Haemon. This is my sister Insmene. Who are you, and why are you with Brother Haemon?"

Ariadne looked at Antigone expressionlessly and said.

"I am Ariadne, princess of the Kingdom of Crete, my brother's sister and wife."

"Brother Haemon already has a new fiancée?"

Antigone glanced at Ariadne in surprise, then smiled and said.

"The Kingdom of Crete is also a large city-state. Your identity is a perfect match for Brother Haemon."

Antigone looked at Hypercybele with questioning eyes, and Hypercybele lowered her head and said.

"I am Hypercybele from Lemnos Island. After being kidnapped by a group of pirates, I became a slave purchased by my master."

"You are Queen Hypercybele—"

Antigone said excitedly, as if seeing a star.

"You were the first beautiful queen to appear during the Argonauts' journey to seize the Golden Fleece. It is said that before the Argonauts came to Lemnos Island, you women of Lemnos Island were cursed by the gods. Killed all the men on Lemnos Island, so you can only ask the Argonauts to help you give birth to children - is this true? "

Hypercybele immediately shed tears and smiled bitterly.

"Princess Antigone! In the story of the Argonauts capturing the Golden Fleece, we women on the island of Lemnos were jealous of their men doting on the side chambers they had snatched from Thrace, so we all went crazy and killed them. My own man. In this world, it is very common for men to have many women. How could we kill our own men for this reason? If the four of us are the women of Prince Haemon, you will be jealous. Are you going to kill Prince Haemon?"

Antigone shook her head, and then asked doubtfully.

"If you Lemnos Island women didn't kill the Lemnos Island men, then who killed the Lemnos Island men?"

Luo Yin, who was driving the car, couldn't help but say.

"Antigone! You can guess the real murderer just by thinking about who ultimately benefited from the murder of the man on Lemnos Island."

“Because all the men on Lemnos Island were killed, the Argonauts came to the island and not only had access to the women on the island, and allowed the women of Lemnos Island to give birth to their children, but they also brought children from Lemnos Island. Take away a lot of wealth. All the men on Lemnos Island were killed, and the biggest beneficiary was the Argonauts, so the Argonauts were the real murderers?”

Seeing that Antigone finally used her slow head to come up with the correct answer, Ariadne teased with a teasing smile.

"You are such an idiot. It seems there is no need for me to treat you as an enemy."

"You are the real fool who laughs at your sister!"

Insmene hugged Antigone's waist and showed off to Ariadne.

"This naturally cute sister attracts his attention more than you. After all, compared to your sister's figure, you are like a child who has not yet grown up."

"you--"

Ariadne glared at Insmene with a fierce look, but had to admit that Antigone's weapons were more than twice as big as hers and could easily destroy Luo Yin's defense.
