The ancient Greek myth story is very short! !

King Atamas of Filja married Princess Nipera, and they gave birth to twins. However, the king had an affair with Princess Ginova of Tebe, and drove Princess Niepera out of the palace, making Ginova the new princess. When Princess Khynova had a child of her own, she decided to kill the only twin left by her predecessor, Princess Niepera (the elder brother is Prica and the younger sister is Hurley).

She paid a fortune teller to complain to the king: if the children born to the former princess were not sacrificed to Zeus, the gods would be furious and there would be famine that year. When Nipola knew about it, he asked Zeus for help, so Zeus sent the golden ram in the sky to the other side of the sky with his two brothers and sisters. Because the speed was too fast, my sister fell into the sea, and the ram looked back at my sister and guarded my brother, thus forming today's Aries.

2. Virgo Legend

In ancient times, human beings and gods lived on the ground at the same time and lived happily together. However, human beings are getting smarter and smarter. They not only learned to build houses and pave roads, but also learned bad habits such as intrigue and bullying, which made many gods unbearable and made human beings live only in heaven.

But among the gods, Astria, the daughter of Astray Oss, the Lord of the stars. She is the goddess of stars, justice and chastity. She hasn't lost faith in human beings, and she still lives with them. However, human beings are getting worse and worse. There was a war in the Black Iron Age, and incidents of killing each other occurred from time to time. The Virgin of Astria, the last God, left this world with the blood of killing. Become a Virgo, and the sun will enter this constellation on August 23rd.

When mankind degenerated to the point where the gods could not bear it, the angry gods decided to give up the degenerate race of mankind, so Pandora's Box appeared in the world, followed by endless disasters. Earthquakes, floods, hail and pestilence claimed countless lives.

Astria was very anxious to see this scene, because she believed that human beings had not lost their conscience and many people were innocent. So she begged the gods to forgive mankind and to suffer for them. Because human hope is locked in Pandora's box, Astria is willing to put chains on human beings and accept punishment, kneeling on the cliff of Olympus for many years, praying for the arrival of human hope.

3. Adrastus

Adrastus got a prophecy that one of his two daughters would marry a lion and the other a wild boar. So he married his daughters, Al themis and De Pierre, to the mythical Prince Polonaike of Thebes and the Prince Tydeus of Kaludon, respectively, because their shields were painted with lions and wild boars.

In order to help son-in-law Polynices restore the throne, Adrastus launched the Seven Heroes to attack Thebes. The expedition failed. Of the seven heroes, only Adrastus survived on a horse-Aryon.

He rode to Athens and asked the Athenians to help him bury the heroes and soldiers who died at the gates of Tebai. The Athenians agreed to his request, and theseus personally led an army to Thebes. Thebes had to agree to bury the bodies of fallen heroes.

Adrastus built seven woodpiles for the dead heroes and held a competition to sacrifice Apollo. Amphiaraus's body, which was swallowed up by the earth, could not be found, which made it impossible for Adrastus to personally mourn for his friend's funeral. "After that, I lost the eyes of my army," he said. "He is a brave soldier and a great prophet."

After the funeral, Adelstos built a temple for Nemesis, the Nemesis, outside the city of Tebai. Then he left Thebes with the Athenian allies.

4. Hechuli

On one occasion, Hercules chased a lion all the way to neighboring Spia to protect the cattle. The local king Tespius admired this handsome and strong young man very much and asked his 50 daughters to serve him together. That night, Hercules knocked out 49 of them (one of them was shy). Nine months later, 49 of them gave birth to sons, two of whom were twins.

Later, Hercules helped Thebes defeat the attack of foreign enemies. The king of Thebes married his daughter Megara and gave birth to three more children. Unfortunately, Hercules suddenly went crazy and killed three children himself. In order to atone for his sin, Heracles exiled himself to Eurystheus, and later he made twelve famous achievements.

5. Hell

In Hades' huge palace, there are three judges, Minos, Rada Mantis and Arcaz, who are responsible for listening to the thoughts, speeches and actions of the soul.

Hermes, the goddess of justice, holds a sword and weighs good and evil for every soul. If the good in the soul is greater than the evil, she will go to Elysium, otherwise she will go to hell. If she is the most guilty, she will be exiled to "endless hell" and suffer endless pain and suffering forever.

There is a door between hell and the dead, which is the "Gate of Hell". This gate is located near Cape Tanas and is guarded by a three-headed Cerberus named Cerberus. Once anyone enters the gate of hell, he will never go back to death.

There is a long way from the gate of hell to the bottom of hell, and there are often illusory ghosts coming and going on the road. There are many rivers in hell, one of which is called Kokut River, which is formed by the tears of bad people forced to work in hell, so it often makes a terrible wail, because the name of this river itself means "crying in the distance".

Another river, the Clone River, is the only river that people who go to try. The water in this river is black and flows fast, so no one can swim across it. A boatman named Caron ferries here. Only by taking his boat can he cross the river, but he will ask for a boat fee of one yuan, otherwise he will refuse to take the boat. If those waiting for trial have no money, they will have to wait for a year, when Caron will take the ferry for free. So when Greeks die, they usually put a dollar in the mouth of the deceased.
