I became the old one

Chapter 147 What is fate? (seeking subscription)

Su Heng didn't choose to immediately go up to ask the mortal who was pushing the stone, but stood not far away and watched with interest.

It wasn't until the mortal was thrown to the ground for the third time and was resting against the big rock out of breath that Su Heng walked up to the fat man.

The shadow spread from under Su Heng's feet, enveloping the man in it.

The obese man raised his head, his gaze first rested on Su Heng, and then he quickly found the goddess Elgani beside Su Heng.His eyes lit up all of a sudden, like a mouse seeing cheese.

It's worth mentioning a little bit.

After experiencing the Ice Age, the intelligent life on the Western Continent also completed an evolution.

The size of those primitive humans has shrunk significantly. Judging from the present, Su Heng feels that the man in front of him is not much different from the terrifying upright apes deep in his memory.

He was about two meters tall, with a soft nose, a fat body, and two small and treacherous eyes.

At first glance, the dirty face does not give a very good impression.

After a long time, the fat man took his gaze away from the goddess.He looked at Su Heng, with an exaggerated smile on his face, and introduced himself in an exaggerated tone: "Oh, your body is so tall, you must be a famous hero in the world. Unfortunately, I was punished by the gods Imprisoned here, ignorant of your legends and stories."

"Haha... As for my name, my name is Sisyphus. I am the king and builder of Koster City, and was once a hero."

Sisyphus... Su Heng understood the king's name, and then asked curiously: "Then, what kind of mistakes did you make to make those benevolent and generous gods send such cruel and terrible punishments?"

There was a little irony in Su Heng's words.

It's a pity that Sisyphus didn't hear the change in Su Heng's tone, he just said loudly: "The gods on the holy mountain of Olympus are just mortals with great power and endless life, they are neither benevolent nor Not great, but full of vanity and lies, and even wisdom may not be comparable to ordinary people."

"As for the reason why I was imprisoned here for punishment, it was because a hundred years or more ago, I saw God King Zeus having an affair with a mortal woman in a garden, and I was in the temple of Goddess Hera. Report this matter. After the matter was over, Zeus sent the god of death to take my life. Unfortunately, the stupid god of death was fooled by me. I set up a banquet in the magnificent palace, and then let the kingdom The best blacksmith has made a chain."

"Thus, when Death sat upon his splendid seat, chains were bound upon him. The chains were forged from the pain of parting and the despair of the dead, from which even a god could not break free. And so, a A true god was imprisoned by me in the palace, and from then on, mortals can also obtain the same eternal life as the gods on the earth."

Sisyphus said with an excited smile on his face, triumphantly.

"That's really a remarkable achievement." Su Heng said, "What happened later?"

"It's a pity that this matter cannot be hidden from the eyes of the gods on the holy mountain of Olympus after all."

Sisyphus sighed: "Death brings not only pain, but sometimes hope and redemption.

Those who lost limbs in war, those who cried out because of hunger, those who were tortured by disease to the point of death.They were all imprisoned by the god of death and could not get the death they deserved. The severe pain they caused alarmed the cruel god-king Zeus.The glorious sun god Apollo came with the command of the god king, cut off the chains that bound the god of death with his sharp sword, and took my life at the same time. "

"In order to punish me for my evil deeds, Zeus built a big mountain in the underworld. There is a stone at the foot of the mountain. As long as I can push this stone down to the top of the mountain, I can regain my freedom. Unfortunately, there are vicious demons on the stone. Divine power, every time I push a stone to the top of the mountain, it will roll down. Repeatedly, I will be bound here to be punished forever, never to be free."

"Mortal, your story is indeed wonderful."

The goddess Elgani, who had been standing beside Su Heng, finally spoke at this moment, because the wanton gazes of mortals made the goddess slightly displeased.

However, the voice of the goddess is still as soft as ever, just like the rustling sound of the morning wind blowing through the dense woods on Paradise Island.She said: "Mortal, we need to get the whereabouts of that princess from your mouth. In return, I can free you from this eternal torture."

In order to show their strength.

The goddess raised her hand, and a golden thunder resounded in the dark underworld.

At the same time, the cage-like mountain behind Sisyphus was also trembling violently, with countless cracks spreading and small stones falling down, and it looked like it might collapse completely at any time.

However, what made Elgany somewhat unexpected was that.

Seeing that the mountain that bound him was cracking, Sisyphus's face was full of fear instead of joy of regaining freedom.

His face twitched, he waved his arms in front of the goddess, and roared in a crazy voice: "I won't allow you to move my monument!"

"monument?"

On Elgany's beautiful face, there was a little surprise and doubt that was rarely seen.

However, after seeing Su Heng nodding his head slightly, Elgani still complied with the mortal king's wishes.

She lowered her slender and white arms, the roaring thunder dissipated from the underworld, and the mountain behind Sisyphus no longer trembled, standing on the barren land of the underworld as always.

"Thank you for your kindness."

After realizing the true power of the goddess, Sisyphus's fat and funny face showed a little awe.

"This mountain that the gods set up to punish me is my monument." Sisyphus explained: "As long as this mountain stands here, every dead person will understand that those high gods were once imprisoned by the weak Fooled and imprisoned by mortals."

"The gods are great, but mortals are also as great as the gods!" Sisyphus said loudly.

"Hahahaha!" Su Heng laughed loudly, the resonant voice made the whole underworld tremble and shake.The eyes under the ferocious mask were clearly glowing with joy, and Su Heng said: "What you said is not wrong at all, mortals can have countless possibilities. Then, Sisyphus, my friend, tell me , how can I obtain the whereabouts of that princess from you?"

"It's very simple, just answer one of my questions."

Sisyphus's small eyes glowed, and his expression became more serious than ever: "What is fate?"
