Chapter 61: The Women's Movement

Ritual activities are very boring for a modern person - if Yanluo has emotions, in fact he does not, so he does not feel impatient.

The process includes a speech by the chief priests, a group of 13 to 15-year-old Shota singing songs in praise of God, and a beautiful cow offering to Zeus. This is because, according to legend, the god of Olympus, who turned into a bull and married the Phoenician princess Europa, is also the origin of the name "Europe".

From morning to noon, when someone came to distribute food, Yanluo took a piece of wheat bread and ate it with water.

Unlike the Dionysian festival, where the theme is revelry, everyone must be solemn. In the afternoon, an athlete meditated in front of the main hall of the Temple of Zeus, feeling the greatness of the gods, while others were talking in whispers.

In this way, 2 hours passed, and the next link was reached, and the athletes of each city-state introduced themselves.

Yan Luo also went up and introduced himself as an "honorary citizen of Athens", from the eastern country of "China", and the other athletes in this link should be quiet, but the chief priest asked for a few words about China.

During this time, the stored emotion value of the heartless puppet reached 100 points.

Its variety is very miscellaneous and it is not a 10-point portion, Yan Luo does not care about the fusion, and it is a natural failure, obtaining 5% of the Heroic Soul Mask fragments.

At this time, there was a sudden movement in the distance, and a priest ran in a panic, and when he saw this scene, the priest and the elder man's face was cold, and he reprimanded: "What is it like to be so flustered during the sacrifice?" Do you want to upset Zeus God-King? ”

"Oh no!"

The priest reluctantly bowed his head, bowed in the direction of the statue of Zeus, and then said: "The women of the Olympic city-state have rebelled!" ”

"What?"

The priests and elders are completely unaware So, Greece is slavery, and sporadic slave rebellions are not surprising, but women rebel? In this era, the status of women is not much higher than that of animals, and as a clergyman, they look down on women even more, thinking that women are inherently filthy and will blaspheme the gods, so they dare to rebel?

"Where's the City Guard?"

"The soldiers didn't dare to care." The priest grimaced, "Many women, marching on the road, led by Socrates, Herodotus, Sophocles, Hippocrates, and other Athenian scholars. ”

Hearing this, the chief priest opened his mouth wide, Socrates is only in his 30s now, and he is very famous in Athens, and it is nothing in other city-states in Greece, but Herodotus and Sophocles have been famous for a long time! How did these people come to the Olympics? And lead women to rebel?

He was completely confused.

At this time, faintly in the distance, there was a shout-

"Long live women's rights, long live women's liberation!"

"Live wonderfully, live confidently, and be the woman of New Greece!"

"Women can hold up half the sky!"

The chief priest was dumbfounded, with an expression of disbelief on his face, and an athlete sitting in the marble square in front of the Temple of Zeus was also dumbfounded, and among all of them, only Yan Luo still had a calm and expressionless face.

You feel strong emotions:

Confused +1, +1, +1, +1......

Shock+1, +1, +1, +1......

The accumulation of emotions in the heartless doll rises rapidly!

Outside the temple of Zeus, in the streets of the city-state of Olympia, there were thousands of people, most of whom were women, including a small number of men, and at the forefront, more than 10 scholars wearing Himashen's robes.

It's the Athenian sages!

"In other words, Brother Wang, your slogans are too modern."

In the crowd, Zhu Xiaoyong said with black lines on his head.

The dress of this fat house is completely Hellenistic, but the figure is like that of a Persian merchant...... Wearing a mask on his face, in fact, it is useless for him to block his face, in this era, a fat body is too conspicuous. Wang Dongwei next to him also wore a mask and a headscarf, almost like an Arab woman.

This is to be on the safe side, after all, the two are not Socratic scholars, and if they are disqualified from the chariot race for inciting a parade and making trouble, the main quest will be over.

"Whatever, as long as it works." Wang Dongwei said.

Zhu Xiaoyong looked at the women who were full of passion and shouted slogans, and he was very puzzled: "I'm very strange about Greek women, and they are too easy to incite, right?" It didn't feel like much effort. ”

It is not surprising that women are so heavily repressed, considering that in ancient Greece today, women were treated as inferior pleasures, bought and sold, and even considered the product of filth and sin...... Of course, this is a little stronger than ancient India, which believed that plague, death, hell, vipers and hell were better than women, and that when the husband died, the wife would be cursed by all if she did not jump into the fire and let herself be burned to death by the fire and continue to live. ”

Wang Dongwei whispered in Chinese and said to Zhu Xiaoyong: "Women are oppressed, this repression has been accumulating for hundreds of years, the Olympic Games are the grandest event in Greece, you are not of this era, you will not understand what the Olympic Games represent in the hearts of the Greeks." ”

"Women, if they watch the Olympics, once they are discovered, they will die, and there are still women who risk their lives to watch secretly."

"The combination of these two is like gunpowder meets open flame - of course, the most important thing is that there are Athenian scholars of high status, and they are in the front, which gives the women the courage to march, and we spend a tower of silver, which is more than 70 pounds of silver...... Hire people with rhythm. ”

Wang Dongwei looked at the team, and on the way forward, women continued to join, and the number of them increased.

Growing to several thousand, the procession reached the vicinity of the Temple of Zeus, at which point the procession stopped, and in front of it was the Olympic venue, the gates, and the fully enclosed wall.

The city guards of the Olympic city-state, hundreds of soldiers wearing leather armor with spears and round shields, simply didn't know what to do, if there were only women, just stab a few with guns to disperse the crowd, but those scholars ...... Not to mention ordinary soldiers, even the captains of the city guards, they didn't dare to move.

In this era, knowledge is very precious, and ordinary people will have a kind of respect and fear for scholars who have mastered knowledge, and some people even believe that scholars are second only to gods.

"Watch the Olympics!"

"We're going to see the Olympics!"

"Why aren't we allowed to watch it? We are not filthy! ”

Some women shouted in the procession, and with the shouting of this parade group, many women's eyes were red, and the emotions accumulated by the usual oppression were vented at this moment, and the originally calm crowd began to be restless, and this restlessness was amplified into a collective emotion.

"Whoever opposes us watching the Olympics will smash his dog's head!" Zhu Xiaoyong blessed his soul and shouted a slogan with a sense of joy.

"Smash the dog's head!"

A woman in the crowd, infected by these words, picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at the city guards blocking the gate of the Olympic Square.

This was immediately imitated by the other women, and suddenly, the stones were thrown like raindrops, and one by one, the soldiers had crooked noses and slanted eyes, but the Athenian sages did not dare to attack, so they had to swallow their anger and raise their shields one by one, half-kneeling on the ground, and shrinking their bodies behind the shields.

"It's not enough to prevent women's demands from being silenced after the march."

Wang Dongwei said solemnly: "It's time to further incite emotions." ”

"Whether you win or lose, it depends on this wave!"

He was now wrapped in a turban, wearing a mask, wearing Greek clothes, gritting his teeth, taking a deep breath and singing clearly and loudly in the crowd, in the ancient Greek language:

"Arise, you oppressed! Arise, all Greek suffering women! Full of blood is already boiling! Fight to see the Olympics! ”

This sound quieted the procession, and then, Socrates and more than 10 other scholars also sang along, and the song was naturally taught to them before the procession, and the lyrics and tunes also aroused the praise of the Greek sages.

Sophocles, in particular, was very excited, feeling that this new way of singing would bring about a huge change in the drama, and he was preparing to cooperate with Euripides, and this song was also added to "The Legend of Mortal Immortals" - of course, the lyrics must be modified.

In addition to more than 10 Greek sages, the toss who hid in the crowd and spent a lot of money to hire them also taught the song.

Dozens of people sang this "women's song", and many people's tunes were not accurate and out of tune, but they sang along with the general melody, and the huge appeal of the lyrics immediately caused a shock of the crowd with women as the main body.

Gradually, even if they hadn't heard it and didn't know the lyrics, some people couldn't help but hum it.

The singing is getting louder and louder.

Outside the Temple of Zeus and the Olympic Games venue, the chorus of people resounded in the sky.

"The old order has fallen into disarray,

Rise, get up, women!

Don't say we have nothing,

We want to be the masters of all Greece!

This is the final struggle,

United for tomorrow,

The goal of watching the Olympics must be achieved! ”

Seeing that the time was ripe, Wang Dongwei raised a loudspeaker carved out of wood and shouted hoarsely: "Tear down the Olympic wall!" Occupy the Olympiad and make our voices heard throughout Greece! ”

"Comrades, brothers, women, rush! Come on!! ”
