The ding stopped, Plesinas leads the saintesses to go out of the crowd, stands by the temple entrance, starts the in unison chorus. 钟声停止了,普莱辛纳斯带着圣女们走出人群,在神庙入口两侧站立,开始齐声合唱。 This time, no longer is only the pure singing sound, moreover there is lyrics: „ 这一次,不再只是纯粹的歌声,而且有了歌词:“ The Hades god is fair, 哈迪斯神公正严厉, Your brilliance photo land, 你的光辉照大地, In our hearts fills with the enthusiasm, 我们心中满怀热情, Arrives in your temple, 来到你的圣殿里, Your ray is shining we, 你的光芒照耀着我们, ...... ” ……” „Is this...... this is a new Hades ode?!” In the people heart filled surprisedly, the unusual melody , is so broadly wonderful. With continuing of singing sound, they completely deeply move by the holy and ideal institute that the song displays. “这是……这是一首新的哈迪斯颂歌吗？！”民众心中充满了惊讶,与众不同的旋律,却又如此美妙恢宏。随着歌声的持续,他们完全被歌曲所表现出的圣洁和理想所深深打动。 Countless people devout kneels down, in the mouth meditates the Hades ode, in the eye flows off the excited tears...... 无数人虔诚的跪倒在地,口中默念哈迪斯颂歌,眼中流下激动的泪水…… When the singing sound ended, some people could not be separated for a very long time, cheers until the surrounding person: „Davos!!!......” They discovered that does not know when Theonia archon and alliance big priest Davos wears in the white robes, batch of white turbans and hands to take the torch, appears in the temple previous circular altar, but Plesinas in his body side, with another male sacrifice gentleman is lifting one very in a big way, the smooth concave bronze mirror. 当歌声结束,一些人还久久不能脱离,直到周围人欢呼:“戴弗斯！！！……”他们才发现不知何时戴奥尼亚执政官、联盟大祭司戴弗斯身穿白袍、头批白巾、手中拿着火炬,出现在神庙前一个圆形的祭坛上,而普莱辛纳斯在他身侧,与另外一名男祭士抬着一面很大的、光滑的凹面铜镜。 People curious opening eye, because had the rumor before, the council senior statesmen had once held the vigorous discussion on „the Temple of Hades ceremonial fire”. Because the ceremonial fire is not only Greek city-state people spirit the department, is representing the inheritance of civilization, particularly western Mediterranean these Greek city-state, they are the colonial cities, health/guard city the ceremonial fire does not look for a fire hazard to light on the line casually, is always by breeding National Construction Association city carries off fire seed from the mother-state temple, the preservation, has built up the temple until the new town, lights the ceremonial fire with the fire seed, for generations burnt, shows the native land to fondly remember, torch inheritance! 民众们都好奇的睁大眼睛,因为之前就有传言,元老院的元老们曾就“哈迪斯神庙圣火”进行过激烈讨论。因为圣火不仅是希腊城邦民众精神之所系,也代表着文明的传承,尤其是西地中海的这些希腊城邦,它们都是殖民城市,卫城的圣火可不是随便找个火源点燃就行,从来都是由殖民建城者从母邦的神庙中带走一点火种,一直保存,直到新城建起神庙,才用火种把圣火点燃,世世代代燃烧,以示故土怀念,薪火传承！ Therefore the senior statesman of Thurii birth, was headed by Pollux, proposed that introduced the fire seed from Athens again, encountered Antonios, Amintas and the others the vigorous oppositions, the reason was: Old Thurii has not existed, new Thurii is not the Athens child nation! 所以图里伊出生的元老,以波吕克西斯为首,提议从雅典再次引进火种,遭到安东尼奥斯、阿明塔斯等人的强烈反对,理由是:旧的图里伊已经不复存在,新图里伊不是雅典子邦！ As for Cornelius proposed that „plants from the Zeus temple ignition of Amendolara” is also opposed, the Thurii senior statesmen think small town Amendolara is not enough to represent the entire Theonia alliance. 至于科尔内鲁斯提出“从阿门多拉腊的宙斯神庙引火种”也遭到反对,图里伊元老们认为小城阿门多拉腊不足以代表整个戴奥尼亚联盟。 Several side quarrels are intense, finally the Davos decision said: „Since Theonia is the newly-built city-state alliance, without mother-state, Temple of Hades is almost Mediterranean only city-state protection temple. Then I think, has Hades to grant us the day of the temple celebration the ceremonial fire, to demonstrate his favor to Theonia!” 几方争吵激烈,最后戴弗斯拍板说道:“既然戴奥尼亚是新建的城邦联盟,没有母邦,哈迪斯神庙又几乎是地中海唯一一座城邦守护神庙。那么我想,就有哈迪斯在神庙庆典那天赐予我们圣火,以显示他对戴奥尼亚的恩宠！” These words spread over the entire city on the same day, spreads over the entire alliance quickly. Now the general public and council senior statesman, just obtained the news distinguished guests curiously and is gazing in the big priest hand excitedly not the lit torch, is waiting for occurrence of miracle, or was anticipating the Magna Graecia biggest joke appears. 这番话当天就被传遍全城,很快传遍整个联盟。现在无论是普通民众、元老院元老、还是刚得到消息的贵宾们都在好奇而兴奋的注视着大祭司手中未被点燃的火炬,等待着奇迹的发生、又或者期待着大希腊最大的笑话出现。 Davos facing the temple entrance, stern partly kneels in the altar, in the hand carries the torch. 戴弗斯面对神庙入口,神情庄严的半跪在祭坛上,手中高举火炬。 Plesinas and sacrifice gentleman retrocedes several steps, the holding up bronze mirror of using energy, the rotation, the adjustment angle, projects the sunlight focus of burning hot to bunch of cyperus rotundus paper scraps that on the torch peak stretches out slowly...... 普莱辛纳斯和祭士后退几步,费劲的举起铜镜,缓缓转动,调整角度,将炙热的阳光聚焦投射到火炬顶端伸出的一簇莎草纸屑上…… The people familiar Hades ode of sang again from the saintesses mouth, the sound passed on the clouds...... 众人熟知的哈迪斯颂歌再次从圣女们口中唱出,声传云霄…… Noon sunny day roasts is roasting everyone, the streaming with sweat people feel nothing, the attention projects on motionless Davos throughout...... 中午的艳阳炙烤着每一个人,汗流浃背的民众浑然不觉,注意力始终投射在一动不动的戴弗斯身上…… Time at one minute/share one second of past. 时间在一分一秒的过去。 The bronze mirror ray is dazzling, the torch maintains the original design as before...... 铜镜光芒刺眼,火炬依旧保持原样…… „Said that what Hades will grant the ceremonial fire, I look at him am conceited, really thinks own anything can achieve!” Pollux sneers in a low voice, Davos the words that spoke in the conference site can disseminate is so broad and is so quick, he gave many strength, he hopes to see Davos is making a boner at this moment, this will make this young archon prestige be attacked very much! “说什么哈迪斯会赐予圣火,我看他是狂妄自大,真以为自己什么都能做到吗！”波吕克西斯低声冷笑,戴弗斯在会场所说的话之所以能传播这么广、这么快,他从中出了不少力,他希望看到戴弗斯在此刻出丑,这将使这位年轻执政官的威望受到很大打击！ Burkes bumps him with the hand, the reminder of good intention he keeps quiet. 布尔克斯用手碰碰他,好心的提醒他保持安静。 Pollux returned to a supercilious look. Burkes was his once good friend, the present is in council, in Thurii senior statesman to one of the Davos powerful supporters, if not, Pollux does not want to communicate with him for some reasons again. 波吕克西斯回了一个白眼。布尔克斯是他曾经的好朋友,现在是元老院里,图里伊元老中对戴弗斯强有力的支持者之一,若不是因为某些原因,波吕克西斯都不想跟他再来往。 Suddenly, he noticed that the torch peak as if braved the light smoke, he thinks that oneself misread, made an effort to blink. 忽然间,他看到火炬顶端似乎冒起了青烟,他以为自己看错了,使劲眨了眨眼。 Screams continuously from have transmitted in all directions. 此起彼伏的惊呼声已经从四面八方传来。 Quick, the light smoke turns into a small bunch of beat the red yellow flame, lit rapidly with the linen that the olive oil soaks. 很快,青烟变成一小簇跳动的红黄色火焰,迅速点燃了用橄榄油浸泡的麻布。 Flame, flaming combustion! 火焰,熊熊燃烧！ „Oh, Hades!!!” The people that witness this miracle voice landslide tsunami cheering, the entire hill seems vibrating. “噢,哈迪斯！！！”亲眼目睹这一神迹的民众发出山崩海啸般的欢呼,整座山丘仿佛都在震动。 Even the distinguished guests also look at each other in blank dismay, unbelievable of face: Did Theonia really receive care of Hades?! 连贵宾们也面面相觑,一脸的难以置信:难道戴奥尼亚真的是受到了哈迪斯的眷顾？！ Did Davos really obtain care of Hades?! Senior statesmen awe looks at front Davos, the body of Pollux is shivering slightly, he as if sees in the torch that Davos carries the Hades dignified eyes in looking straight ahead of coldly he. 戴弗斯真的得到了哈迪斯的眷顾？！元老们则敬畏的望着前方的戴弗斯,波吕克西斯的身体则在微微颤抖,他似乎看到戴弗斯高举的火炬中哈迪斯威严的双眼在冷冷的直视着他。 Davos relaxes secretly, although also had practiced before several times, even chose the cloudless day especially, performs using the square, the ceremony of lighting the flame will continue at noon, but in his heart somewhat is disturbed, after all this is in the face of tens of thousands people, if screwed up, he will plan and prestige of god family deliberately will be destroyed in a moment! Luckily, Hades blesses, he succeeded! 戴弗斯暗自松了口气,虽然之前也练过几次,甚至特地选了晴天,又利用广场表演,将点火仪式延续到中午,但他的心中还是有些忐忑,毕竟这是在几万人面前,万一搞砸了,他处心积虑的计划和神眷者的威名都将毁于一旦！幸好,哈迪斯保佑,他成功了！ Davos stands up slowly, carries the torch, goes slowly for a week, solemn enjoys people the ocean waves in cheering acoustic image storm to be the same, pushes to the peak him time and time again...... 戴弗斯慢慢站起身,高举火炬,缓行一周,神情肃穆的享受着民众的欢呼声像风暴中的海浪一样,一次又一次将他推向顶峰…… Then he under offering a sacrifice to the accompaniment of gentlemen, walks into the temple, the dark colored bronze brazier 11 ignitions before Hades idol, the Temple of Hades ceremonial fire is restless the day and night henceforth, blessing Theonia is thriving. 然后他在祭士们的陪同下,步入神庙,将哈迪斯神像前的暗黑色青铜火盆一一点燃,从此哈迪斯神庙圣火将昼夜不息,保佑戴奥尼亚繁荣昌盛。 When Davos goes out of the temple, the resonant bugle sound gets up, along with the low and deep drumbeats, Kapus, Drakos and Shero Nims three legatus is the head, the additional eight chiefs, the whole body military garb, are lifting three steles again respectively, under escorting of 40 platoon commanders, before arriving at the temple . 待戴弗斯走出神庙,嘹亮的军号声响起,伴随着低沉的鼓点,卡普斯、德拉克斯、希罗尼姆斯三名军团长为首,再加八名大队长,全身戎装,分别抬着三个石碑,在40名分队长的护送下,来到神庙前。 When most people doubts puzzled looking have person of high three steles to that the words of big priest with the help of transaudient, send in the ear of people: „Establishment and development of Theonia city-state alliance, cannot leave blessing of Hades! Cannot leave the citizens for the effort that it makes! Enjoys peaceful and prosperous today in us, please do not forget that for warriors who to defend Theonia pay with the life! Their names engrave on these three steles, Hades appreciates their loyalty and heroics to the alliance, allowing their souls to enter the temple, changes to the hero soul , to continue to defend Theonia, and accepts the looking at reverently and worshipping of descendants and later generation Theonian!” Then, Davos solemn kneeling down in front of stele. 当大部分民众疑惑不解的望向那有一人高的三个石碑时,大祭司的话语在传声者的帮助下,送入民众的耳朵:“戴奥尼亚城邦联盟的建立和发展,离不开哈迪斯的庇佑！也离不开公民们为之付出的努力！在我们享受和平和繁荣的今天,请不要忘记为保卫戴奥尼亚而付出生命的勇士们！他们的名字都镌刻在这三面石碑上,哈迪斯赞赏他们对联盟的忠诚和英勇,允许他们的灵魂进驻神庙,化作英灵,继续保卫戴奥尼亚,并接受戴奥尼亚人之子孙及后人的瞻仰和祭拜！”说完,戴弗斯神情肃穆的跪倒在石碑前。 legatus, chiefs, platoon commanders as well as all soldiers on the scene face the stele partly to kneel in the place, looks stern. 紧接着,军团长、大队长、分队长以及所有在场的士兵都面对石碑半跪在地,神情庄严。 In people eyes, that stele that carves the full handwriting no longer is the icy stone, but is the well-known and fresh/live forms...... 在民众眼中,那颗刻满字迹的石碑不再是冷冰冰的石块,而是一个个有名有姓、鲜活的身影…… „Wū wū......” except for the distinguished guests, all over is the Theonia people of kneeling down, in this solemn and respectful atmosphere is the wail that spreads unable to constrain, these weepers were the family members of dying in battle soldier. “呜呜呜……”除了贵宾们,漫山遍野全是跪倒的戴奥尼亚民众,在这肃穆的气氛中更是传出压抑不住的哭泣声,那些哭泣者都是战死士兵的眷属。 „Warrior does not die, the hero soul exists forever!” “勇士不死,英灵长存！” „Warrior does not die, the hero soul exists forever!!!” “勇士不死,英灵长存！！！” ...... …… Davos leads the people to kotow to the stele. 戴弗斯带领民众向石碑叩首。 This moment vegetation feels emotion, world with sad, blew the gale unexpectedly at the right moment, even Sun was also covered by the clouds, made the people believe that own shouting got the response. 此刻草木有情,天地同悲,竟适时刮起了大风,连太阳也被云朵遮挡,更让民众相信自己的呼喊得到了回应。 Suddenly, the pray sound of people prolonged...... 一时间,民众的祈祷声经久不绝…… The bugle and battle drum play music in unison, the high-ranking military officers and team officers are stepping the neat step, under attention of eyes, lifts the stele to enter the temple ten million/countless. 军号与战鼓齐奏,将官、队官迈着整齐的步伐,在千万双眼睛的注目下,抬着石碑进入神庙。 „Veneration of Theonian to soldier can be in such degree unexpectedly!” Before Lysias, heard that Theonia is the army of triumphant return holds the triumphal returning type, at this moment will see them the stele of dying in battle to send in the temple, changed countenance greatly. “戴奥尼亚人对战士的尊崇竟然可以到这样的程度！”吕西阿斯之前就听说戴奥尼亚为胜利归来的军队举行凯旋式,此刻又见他们将战死者的石碑送入神庙,不禁大为动容。 „Had such sacred action, how the Theonia citizen can not be willing to fight at risk of life!” Did not have the mood of ridicule in nearby Crotone nauarch Askamas, stern-faced. “有了这样神圣的举措,戴奥尼亚公民又怎么能不甘愿拼死战斗呢！”在一旁的克罗托内海军统帅阿斯卡玛斯也没有了嘲弄的心情,一脸的严肃。 He and Lysias looks at each other mutually, what in the heart thinks is the same issue: From now on by some chance again and does Theonia have the war, Crotone can defeat so high-spirited Theonian? 他和吕西阿斯相互对视,心中想的是同一个问题:今后万一再和戴奥尼亚发生战争,克罗托内能战胜如此士气高昂的戴奥尼亚人吗？ Some distinguished guests more or less such feeling from south intent Union, but regarding Elliade's Kanos, Theonia powerful he is happy to see. 来自南意同盟的贵宾们或多或少都有些这样的感受,而对于埃利亚的卡尼奥斯而言,戴奥尼亚的强大正是他乐于看到的。 After rousing the bugle call vanishes, the harp sound resounds...... 鼓号声消失后,竖琴声又响起…… In the melodious tweedle, before small Heracleides and Yasik lifts a half-length statue to arrive at the temple . 在悠扬的琴声中,小赫拉克利德和皮亚西克斯抬着一尊半身石像走到神庙前。 „The Theonia people, please tell me, the Thurii new town is who designs? Is who leads us to construct?” Davos asked loudly. “戴奥尼亚的民众们,请你们告诉我,图里伊新城是谁设计？是谁带领我们建造的？”戴弗斯大声问道。 „...... Is Heracleides.” Replied that the sound is off and on. “……是赫拉克利德。”回答声断断续续。 ” Who was designed and constructed Temple of Hades? ” Davos also asked. ”是谁设计和建造了哈迪斯神庙？”戴弗斯又问。 „Heracleides!” This reply was neater. “赫拉克利德！”这一次的回答整齐多了。 „Constructs the new town or the temple, is whose every day always comes, most evening walk early, has the serious illness, must put him to deeply love in this urban architecture the complete mental effort, and gave own life finally?” Davos asked again loudly: „Who is he?!” “无论是建造新城还是神庙,是谁每天总是最早来、最晚走,身染重病,仍然要将全部的心力都扑在他热爱这座城市建筑上,并最终奉献了自己的生命？”戴弗斯再次大声发问:“他是谁？！” „Heracleides!!!” The neat and energetic reply reverberates in the hill. “赫拉克利德！！！”整齐而有力的回答在山丘间回荡。 „In view of the fact that Heracleides- this architect treats the contribution that Theonia makes, his statue will move into Hall of Sages of temple, attains the Hades favor , to continue is Elysium contributes labor and materials with his talent! Meanwhile, in the later years, so long as there are Theonia people are the prosperity and development of Theonia makes the great contribution, then their statues will also move into the temple, looked at reverently by the later generation, soul and alliance with saving!” As a result of the miracle of ceremonial fire, Davos is similar to Hades to take possession at this moment, his words naturally can encourage the people. “鉴于赫拉克利德-这位建筑大师对待戴奥尼亚所做的贡献,他的雕像将入驻神庙的贤人祠,获哈迪斯恩宠,继续用他的才华为爱丽舍乐园添砖加瓦！同时,在以后的岁月中,只要有戴奥尼亚的民众为戴奥尼亚的繁荣和发展做出巨大贡献的,那么他们的雕像也将入驻神庙,受后人瞻仰,灵魂与联盟同存！”由于圣火的神迹,戴弗斯此刻就如同哈迪斯附身,他的话自然更能激励民众。 Note: About grasping the concave bronze mirror focus sunlight can light straw paper plot, just when started to write also some cannot determine. Afterward remembered the history over a hundred years later Rome to besiege the Syracuse city, Archimedes designs many instruments to assist to defend a city, one is to let the soldiers stands in the top, grasped over a hundred concave bronze mirrors, the focus sunlight, lit the Rome person to anchor the warship ship's sail in Gulf. The ship's sail can light, the straw paper should be easier . Moreover the distance nearly were too many. 注:关于手持凹面铜镜聚焦阳光能不能点燃莎草纸这一情节,刚开始写时还有些不敢确定。后来想起历史上百年后的罗马围攻锡拉库扎城,阿基米德设计了很多器械协助守城,其中一项就是让士兵们站在城头,手持上百个凹面铜镜,聚焦阳光,点燃了罗马人停泊在海湾里的战船船帆。船帆都能点燃,莎草纸应该更容易,而且距离近太多了。
