MTL - Pivot of the Sky-v2 Chapter 319 Once Christ
The order in the court was a bit chaotic. Someone shouted, "Aesop is contempt of the court, contempt of the gods! Executing him, he must be executed!" The judge knocked on the table for a long time to calm everyone down. Said: "Master Judge, the citizens of Midoli, just like the city of Aaron punished Socrates. Since Aesop chose this way, he will give him a glass of poisonous wine!"
Thales sighed, the scene in the court seemed like a historical repeat, a similar scene happened in the city of Aaron many years ago. Aristotle's teacher was Plato. Plato's teacher was Aaron's famous sage Socrates. Socrates was charged in the court of the city of Aaron on the same count as Aesop today— " Proclaiming new gods, poisoning and corrupting young people. "
Despite Socrates's defense, the then Aaron City-State Court declared his guilt: Socrates was an evildoer and a weird man before the gods. He spied the secrets of heaven and earth without distinction. To teach others.
The court found Socrates guilty, but he could bring another penalty to the court instead of going to jail. As a result, Socrates' punishment was to pay a fine of thirty silver coins, such a contemptuous attitude angered the court, and eventually he was sentenced to death. Many people, including his student Plato, were willing to provide guarantees for Socrates, but Socrates did not intend to confess his guilt and gave in. He chose to be executed.
Socrates drank a glass of poisonous wine at that time. Apparently, Aesop and Delphi's messenger Antonio knew this famous allusion, so when Aesop's words were spoken, Antonio shouted in court to give him a glass of poisoned wine.
Aesop's cousin cried with three nephews, and Red Ackerman shouted to the judge: "No, don't do this, I'm willing to pay my cousin the heaviest fine in the city's history! "
The judge shook his head: "This kind of request can only be made by Mr. Aesop Ackerman himself, Aesop Ackerman, do you insist on what you just said?"
Another was shouting, "Kill him, kill him!"
Aesop nodded without changing his face: "Yes, I insist."
The judge finally said, "In that case, the city-state court can only sentence you to death. Why choose it? You didn't have to die!"
Aesop replied: "Master, may I tell another story ..."
It's still the story of a wolf and a sheep. The wolf chased the sheep, and the sheep fled into the temple. The wolf shouted outside the temple: "Come out quickly, or you will be sacrificed to the gods by the priest." The sheep replied in the temple: "I am not afraid of death. devour."
This is the last story Aesop told, and he was later given a glass of poisonous wine.
This is also the fate of Socrates, even the charges are the same, but Aesop's and Socrates' behavior is different. Socrates was only questioning the way in which the gods existed, but Aesop's charge of "proclaiming new gods, poisoning and corrupting young people" was solid.
Aesopben was one of Midori's richest merchants. Although he did not believe in the gods here, he had not offended anyone. Hermes, the patron saint, and the city-state high priest had both sought him, but in the end they could do nothing. But his move to the Holy Land Delphi brought back the gold, but angered the Midurians. They didn't hate Aesop's person, but they were afraid of the sins of the gods, and the messenger of the Holy Land Delphi came here, identifying Aesop as the sinner in the deity.
Antonio's allegations claimed Aesop's life, and the Angel of the Holy Land said at the execution: "I deprived Aesop's life in the name of the gods and took away this evil spirit hun. The oracle has given directions, It is the man who blasphemed and offended the gods, and receives the punishment he deserves today. "
People who first arrived in the city-states of the Heaton Peninsula may feel suspicious. Why were sages like Socrates executed? Because the discussion atmosphere here seems quite open, people seem to be free to talk about various topics in the Temple Square, and it seems quite free. The repertoire in the theater also arranges the gods in various ways.
On the other hand, people regard the arrangement of gods as their freedom. They have the right to decide how to treat their gods, but they cannot tolerate such acts as Aesop. Aesop's sin was not the orchestration of the Olympians, but the gods who ignored them, denied the significance of this worship, and proclaimed another belief. This is not only unwilling to be seen by the gods of Olympus, but also unacceptable by the so-called free and open Heaton city-state.
It was the two deities who pushed Aesop to a tragic fate, but it was the people here who sentenced and executed Aesop.
According to the elder's last words, his body was cremated and ashes were scattered into the sea. However, Antonio did not leave Midurri immediately. He, as the messenger of the Holy Land, gave the Midurri city state a chance to sacrifice to the gods. The merchants donated the gold brought back by Aesop and entrusted the Holy Angel to the Temple of Delphi. But Aesop's cousin and three nephews recovered Aesop's share of gold and did not dedicate it to the Olympians.
Antonio completed the task, found and executed the sinner pointed out by the deity, and accepted a large sum of contributions. He was content to prepare to leave Midoli. But on this day, two foreigners came to Midurley, a young man in a carriage and another mighty knight. They entered Midurly and went straight to the city-state court.
Many people recognize them as Améng and Medanzo who escorted Aesop back to his hometown. At first, people here did not hear the name of Améng. Now five years have passed. Aesop has told so much of Améng's past here. This name has almost become a legend among Midoli young people.
Améng came to file a complaint. According to the regulations of the city-state, he invited a local citizen, the respected sage Thales, to write a complaint. The object of the complaint was the messenger Antonio sent from the Holy Land Delphi. This incident caused a great sensation in Midoli City. As a foreigner, such a complaint may not be accepted by the Midoli Court, but the court gave Améng a chance to accept the inquiries of everyone to determine him. Whether a complaint can be filed.
Delphi's messenger Antonio Ben did not have to attend such an inquiry, but for the glory of the gods, he still went. He wanted to hear in person what Améng wanted to sue him? If the court ruled that the complaint lodged by Améng was unreasonable, the young man from the country would also be punished by the Midurian city-state.
In the court, the judge asked: "Young people from a foreign country, we all know that you used to be Aesop's driver and helped him manage the farm. Aesop treated you very generously. Now that your former owner died, you feel sad. Understandably, this is not a reason for you to file a complaint. You must prove that Lord Antonio has harmed your own interests before you are eligible to file a complaint. "
Améng replied: "Aesop owes me something that has not been repaid so far. If this person's accusation killed the innocent Aesop and prevented me from recovering what belonged to me, do I have the right to sue him, to What about his claim for compensation? "
The judge said in puzzlement: "The entire legacy of Aesop has been inherited by the Ackerman family. If he owes you something, you should go to Red Ackerman Aesop for repayment, not to sue Lord Antonio."
Améng shook his head and said, "What Aesop owes me is not money, but a slave's identity and a finger. I can't let others replace Aesop as my slave, nor can innocent people cut off a finger. Repay for Aesop. It is this man who deprived Aesop's life in the name of the gods. If Aesop is innocent, then he should be responsible for this. "
The court was chaotic again. Isn't Aesop a slave of Améng and still owes the driver a finger? People couldn't believe it, and asked people around them in surprise. At this time, someone remembered the past that Aesop had told, and whispered to the people around him that the news spread in the theft. This young man even said such a thing, then it shows his identity-then the general of Eju, Améng!
Legend has it that Améng is a **** who came to earth! How could he be the driver of Aesop's, and he came to Midoli again! However, Améng did not claim to be a **** in court, he just came to accuse Antonio.
The judge also heard people's discussions. His sweat was already on his forehead, but in order to maintain the dignity of the court, he couldn't say much. He always felt how uncomfortable it was to sit on the chair under the butt. He cleared his throat and said with a husky, slightly trembling voice: "Foreigner, I want to remind you that if you can't provide evidence, your words and actions in court will be punished by Midoli."
A méng took a pupil of the earth from her arms and said: "The evidence is here. You ask a priest who understands intermediate-level information divinity to show the information recorded in public to let everyone judge for themselves. This one. God Stone, as the legal fee that I handed over to the Miduri City Court. "
A priest soon came, took the pupil of the earth, and performed two magical messages to demonstrate the magical information. It was a scene many years ago, and I do n’t know what method Méng used to record them in the earth. It is reproduced in the pupil. Aesop in the light and shadow is still very young. The first scene took place in a shop in the city state of Cape Eju. As a slave, Aesop accidentally touched the stone with his hand and was punished with a finger.
But the awkward Aesop told the story of Pythagoras to the master, Sio, and Sio wrote this finger to his account, indicating that Aesop owed him a finger. The second scene took place in the city of Ajumon Month. Améng bought Aesop from Siou. Aesop became Améng's slave, so his former "liability" became owed to Améng.
Things in light and shadow happened decades ago, and Améng is the young man standing in the court today, his face has hardly changed. This piece of information demonstrates that the court is silent and people do n’t even dare to breathe. Everyone already knows who Améng is-he is the main **** from Eju, standing in the court of Midoli!
Améng did not pay any attention to the response of the crowd. He asked lightly, "Master, may I be qualified to sue the person who caused this incident for the death of Aesop?"
The judge swallowed and replied dumbly, "You are qualified to file a complaint, but this does not mean that you can win the case. What do you want to accuse of Antonio?"
A méng: "My complaint is clearly written. I will sue him to forge a deity and abuse the name of the **** to frame innocent people!"
Antonio shouted: "Shameless lie! People who participated in the oracle of Delphi knew the contents of the oracle. There was a city-state messenger blaspheming and offending the gods. I came to Midoli just to find out Punish this person. "
Améng replied coldly: "Antonio, did the shrine say Aesop's name? The person who accused Aesop in court is you, and it is you who identified Aesop's profane and offensive deities. I want to ask the Lord. If it weren't for his use of the Delphi oracle to sue Aesop, would Aesop be executed? Aesop's death brought me irreparable losses, shouldn't I ask him for compensation? "
The judge wiped his sweat: "Such a complaint cannot be ruled by the Miduri City Court. Only a **** can become a witness, and this court is not qualified to ask a **** to testify."
A méng: "Dear judge, where can I rule?"
Although the judge was still sitting in the chair, almost all of him wanted to kneel down and beg Méng, and said mutely, "You are accusing the messenger of the Temple of the Holy Land Delphi. The complaint is that he forged the gods and killed them. Innocent, this can only be ruled by the temple that proclaimed the Delphi shrine. "
Améng turned around and looked at Antonio calmly and said, "I heard you're going back to Delphi tomorrow? That's right, dare you go with me to the Delphi Temple and let Delphi's priest court accept my allegations, and Make a ruling? "
Under Améng's gaze, Antonio also felt that his front and back were sweating, but he couldn't say no, because the gods calculated Aesop's purpose was to draw Améng. Not only was Antonio a priest, he also had another identity-a ninth-level **** under the direction of Abolo.
Antonio was also very surprised. Améng had the courage to come to Midoli, even dare to go to Delphi! Where is Delphi? That is the holy land of the Olympus deity in the world, and the land guarded by the gods! Wasn't Améng going to file a complaint there?
Antonio replied in public, "As long as you have the courage to come to Delphi, you are ready to face the consequences of your choice. I am willing to meet you in Delphi court!"
When he talked, he also murmured in his heart, and Améng had once again come to the Olympus, and charged him in public in a city-state court. But the goddess Hermes, who guarded the city-state, didn't say a word, and did not show up, and the matter of Aesop was first caused by Hermes' deities.
Unfortunately, where Antonio knew, Hermes did not want to lu face, but he did not dare to lu face, Améng seemed calm, but in fact angry. If Hermes dare to lu head, Améng dare to kill him. Without the kingdom of Olympus and the backing of the gods, Hermes would not dare to cause such trouble.
Watching Améng walk out of the court with Medanzo, the judge took a breath and almost collapsed to his chair. Although Améng did not claim to be a deity from a foreign country from beginning to end, the judge almost lost his voice nervously, OK? It's easy to send this **** away, I hope he never comes back to trouble, I hope that the Delphi Temples can solve it.
Améng stepped out of the court, and suddenly turned around with Medanzo behind him and said, "People of Midoli, are you grateful? Because the gods have not incriminated you. You followed Antonio to accuse Aesop, really Is it because he has blasphemed the gods, violated your interests, or is he afraid of the injustice of the gods? I do n’t know how many offensive things you have done, why do you feel afraid? "
Many of these words frightened Medanzo before he left, and when she returned home that night, she fell ill. Early the next morning, the people of Midori rushed to the city-state temple and prayed for the protection of the gods, and prayed that the gods could "solve" Améng in Delphi, and never come to their trouble again.
A méng drives a carriage like an ordinary passerby, while Medanzo rides a horse like the guard of this carriage, but the carriage is empty, no one is in the cart and no cargo is being delivered. They followed behind Antonio's convoy of gold, all the way to Delphi, the holy place in the world of Olympus.
On the way, Medanzo quietly said, "My God, are you going to Delphi to find the Olympians?"
A méng asked: "Shouldn't it?"
Medanzo: "When Aesop happened, I followed the Macedonian army and I was sorry that I couldn't save him."
Améng shook his head: "He has a chance to save himself, but he chose to be executed."
Medanzo also reminded: "If you really do it in Delphi, we might be alone and alone. Would you like to call the angels?"
A méng shook his head again and said, "If I do this, I will wage a direct war between the two deities and get involved in too many people who should not be involved. Don't forget what we came for, then solve it This matter. It is the hometown where you and I returned Aesop. It was my agreement with Zeus. Let us both take care of it. "
At the foot of the mountain where the Holy Land Delphi was located, Améng stopped the carriage to rest and let Antonio go back first. When Antonio went up the mountain, the spirit **** heard Améng's voice: "You go back to Delphi and get everything ready, I will give you a day, and at noon the day after tomorrow, see you at Delphi Priest's Court."
The arrival of Améng caused the shaking of the Delphi temples. When he went up the mountain, Medanzo reminded him, "My god, people here are staring at us with hostile eyes. Dozens of priests are mixed among the priests, I have seen them before. "Ro! .
