Inside and Outside World

Chapter 40: : Am I beautiful?

In his heart, Yan Luo silently recalled the ancient Greece introduced by Wang Dongwei, the three major tragedies writers - Aeschylus, the father of tragedy, should have died, it is said that he was killed by a turtle falling from the sky... He is indeed the father of tragedy .

Sophocles' representative work is "Oedipus the King", which tells the story of Oedipus killing his father and marrying his mother.

The masterpiece of Euripides is "Medea". The content is that Medea betrayed her father, helped Jason steal the golden fleece, and gave birth to two sons with this man. Later, Jason wanted to marry the king of Corinth. Daughter, Medea was abandoned, she poisoned the king and princess, and killed two sons.

The two old men stood up together now.

Sophocles, who leaned on an ash branch as a cane to support his body, looked at Euripides, who was 15 years younger than him, with disgust. Facing outsiders is not the time to care.

He was about to speak when Euripides spoke first.

"Just now, I noticed a sentence you said: because the clothes are beautiful, it is called Hua, and because of the great etiquette, it is called Xia. Is this the origin of Huaxia's name?"

"Yes."

This is a sentence in "Zuo Zhuan". In fact, "Zuo Zhuan" also wrote: The origin of China is the Huaxu family, Fuxi's mother. But when you say it, these Greeks definitely don't understand.

"Hahaha."

Euripides looked up and laughed.

"Why is the old man laughing?" Yan Luo knew the old man, and now he laughed deliberately, just waiting for his own words.

All the Athenians held their breath and looked at Euripides.

Herodotus failed in the debate, and sat on the ground in a daze, which was very disappointing. Now all the expectations of the Greeks are placed on these two Athens drama champions.

"Huaxia, the name actually comes from clothes and etiquette, it's ridiculous!"

"What's so ridiculous?" Yan Luo still asked calmly.

"Do you see what that is?" Euripides pointed to the main hall of the Parthenon.

Yan Luo looked over, and there was a statue of a goddess, about 13 meters high, inlaid with ivory and gold. Under the sunlight, it shone with incomparably brilliant and brilliant golden light—this was the famous statue of Athena, but it was later destroyed. Watch the world, and now there is a marble replica, collected in the Athens Museum.

"Athena, the goddess of wisdom, this is the source of our Athens name!"

Euripides turned around, as if performing a drama, in front of everyone, praising with a cadenced aria:

"Since the origin of civilization, the power of nature and the will of God have been superior to human beings, and we, we respect God, worship God, and we praise people! This is an era where reason and faith coexist. This is an era An age of justice and civility, an age in which man, too, can be great."

"The reason is because we have wisdom!"

The dramatist's words immediately ignited the atmosphere in the square, and a sense of pride deep in the souls of all Athenians arose spontaneously.

"Wow..."

The consul of Pericles was the first to applaud, followed by the senators and councilors, an Athenian, and some even clapped their hands with tears in their eyes. The applause lasted for 3 minutes before it stopped.

The only one who didn't applaud is the "Father of History" Herodotus who is still lost.

You feel strong emotions:

Excited +1, Excited +1, Excited +1...

In Yan Luo's consciousness, leaving aside the persona of "Ghost Soldier Bull Head", the capacity of the Wuxin puppet has 100 emotion points left, which is finally full. There is no way to liberate these emotions now, and these emotions include expectations, anger, shock, excitement... Various types, the possibility of merging personas is almost 0%.

He didn't think about it, and chose fusion directly in his consciousness.

Once successful, so many different types of emotions can be fused together, an extremely powerful persona! It's okay if you fail, you can get a level 1 personality mask fragment and combine it with the heroic soul mask.

"Snapped!"

Fusion failed.

No miracle happened.

A fragment remained in Yan Luo's consciousness, bigger than the last one.

"Level 1 Persona Fragment: 10%."

Euripides is still singing loudly:

"Wisdom makes Athens, and the glory of the goddess of wisdom shines on Athens. The source of our Athens name is wisdom! Whether it is the wisdom of gods or the wisdom of humans—and you." He turned his head and looked at Yan Luo, "The name of Huaxia, From beautiful clothes and great manners? Hahahaha..."

He laughed.

Yan Luo did not speak, quietly watching Euripides' performance.

"Since your country's clothes and etiquette are so important, let me talk about clothes first! What is beauty?"

"As a dramatist, I am very sensitive to clothes and beauty."

"The leather jacket and long johns you presented to Pericles are beautiful because of their bright colors and soft texture. I admit that their clothes are beautiful, but they are diplomatic offerings. Obviously, it is also extremely precious in your country, and it is not universal."

Yan Luo has no way to refute this sentence... He has no choice but to tell these people that leather jackets and long johns are everywhere in the world of watches, and they are not even worth a hundred dollars... Now, look at Pericles wearing them, Reluctant to take it off, I am afraid it is not much lower than the value of that golden scepter.

"Since we are talking about clothes, we should talk about the clothes we often wear."

Euripides points to one of the crowd.

It was a young man in his 20s, tall and handsome, wearing a short-sleeved tunic made of a whole piece of lambskin, with short skirt-like wavy folds hanging from his waist.

"That's Keeton."

He pointed to the white linen robe **** with pins on his body again with his finger: "On me is Xima Shen."

"These two kinds of clothes can be called beautiful. Jitong bares his arms and legs, showing the beauty of the muscles of young people. He is enthusiastic and unrestrained, and his waist makes people look fit and slim. And Ximashen, with a piece of linen cloth Folded and draped, bound with pins, it’s comfortable and slouchy, elegantly flowy, with a soft fluidity.”

"Jitong and Ximashen, the natural shapes, flowing lines, high-waisted forms, simple colors, and fresh looks moisten people's eyes and soothe people's hearts. Only such clothes can be called beautiful! And You, the blue and white clothes on your body are almost similar to the clothes that slaves wear for easy work, what qualifications do you have to say—the clothes are beautiful?"

"Papa papa..."

There was another loud applause.

"As expected of Euripides!"

"Huaxia's envoy, it must be impossible to refute this."

"Of course, our King of Drama in Athens is a young man who can be compared!"

You feel strong emotions:

Proud +1, proud +1, proud +1...

Yan Luo listened to the "hum humming" discussion, felt the rapidly growing emotions in the Wuxin puppet, and the expression on his face was still calm.

"The clothes I wear are called Zhifu Shenyi."

"Euripides, you don't understand the truth behind my Huaxia clothes."

"There are two upper garments, four of which are bent, representing the four seasons of the year; six lower garments, six of cloth, which occupy two-thirds of the body, and when untied, one end is six inches wide, and the other end is two inches wide. Six pieces are broken into twelve, which are composed of twelve pieces of cloth, which means that there are twelve months in a year; the sleeves are arc-shaped to meet the rules, and the collars are rectangular to meet the square, which means that people should be regulated, the so-called There is no rule, there is a middle seam on the back, which runs vertically from the root of the neck to the ankle, which means being upright; the lower skirt is flush with the ground, which means balance."

"This is my Huaxia clothes, this is the true meaning of beauty! The beauty is not in the appearance, but in the inside!"

Using ancient Greek as before, he translated the ancient Chinese perfectly, and Yan Luo talked loudly, suppressing all the opinions of everyone.

"Good job!"

Wang Dongwei clenched his fists excitedly. Yesterday, he just casually talked about the specifications of Hanfu. Taking "Zhu Zishenyi" as an example, Yan Luo actually memorized what he said after listening to it! This is actually a description of Zhu Zi's deep clothes, but the straight-leg deep clothes he made are not much different, anyway, the Greeks couldn't figure it out.

It's enough to say these words with elation!

Zhu Xiaoyong's already frightened expression became even more frightened.

Yan Luo glanced coldly at the Greek people who became silent again.

"Don't think that I don't know that I'm from China. The so-called Jitong is a dress from Crete. In Cretan women's Jitong, the top is opened to the front of the chest, and the **** are exposed! And Ximashen , a piece of cloth bound with a pin and a belt, and tugged lightly, will fall apart."

"Your clothes are just for the convenience of being exposed!"

Euripides' face was a little ugly, but he was still able to keep calm: "The beauty of the human body represents the beauty of nature. We are close to nature and present in the most authentic state, showing our god-like bodies and strong muscles. What's this?"

"Shameless!"

Hearing Yan Luo's scolding, the old man immediately glared.

Yan Luo said: "In Hebrew mythology, the first man Adam and woman Eve in the world, after eating the wisdom fruit and gaining wisdom, the first thing they did was to feel ashamed of their nakedness. , Covering the private parts with leaves."

"Even ancient savages knew how to wrap their private parts with animal skins."

"Shame is human nature. No matter the barbarians Dijon, those barbarians will not show their bodies. The reason why people are human is because they have a sense of shame! In any civilized country I have seen, there is no one in public. You are not ashamed to expose your body, but proud of it!"

"I, I..." Euripides raised his finger and pointed at Yan Luo, but was speechless.

Yan Luo looked at the old man and said sharply: "Since you say that being naked is beautiful, then take off your clothes now and let us have a look at the beauty of your body. Do you dare to show your hairy, stooped, emaciated body?" Body? Let's take a look?"

"No, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com You don't even dare to look at your old body, and the pure white linen covering your body can't hide your dirty inside."

"You you..." Euripides covered his chest with his hands, his lips were trembling.

"We have a saying in Huaxia: A gentleman hides his weapon in his body and moves it when the time comes."

"Only when the time is right, will it be revealed."

Yan Luo turned around and handed the Panlong stick tied behind his back to Zhu Xiaoyong—this fat man weighing more than 300 kilograms, after using the primary strength, he was not crushed by the 62 kilogram iron rod—afterwards, he untied his belt and took off his clothes. Remove the top and bottom clothes, even the inner clothes, leaving only a white cloth around the crotch, almost naked.

"I didn't want to be like this, but you are beautiful in being naked, so take a look!"

Thousands of Athenians, foreigners and slaves... Those citizens, women and children, all stared at Yan Luo's body, countless eyes, either hot, shocked, or shy...

And the expressions of Wang Dongwei and Zhu Xiaoyong are completely gaping with their mouths wide open.

A mess of emotions flooded the unintentional puppet like a flood.

Envy +1, shock +1, shame +1, excitement +1, sadness +1, excitement +1, bewilderment +1...

Under the gaze of countless gazes, Yan Luo pumped his strength, and the streamlined muscles on his body immediately tensed up. Under the fair skin, a soft and tense outline appeared... The bulges of muscle fibers made him look Look elegant and powerful.

He was doing the posture of a bodybuilder showing his muscles, so that his body and muscle lines were fully displayed in the sight of these Greeks.

"Am I beautiful?"

The loud shouts resounded throughout the Acropolis, echoing repeatedly.
