Chapter 82
After dinner, Li Qingmo and Liu Tian'er sat on the top floor looking at the stars, Liu Tian'er said, "What's so good about Qingmo's stars?"

Li Qingmo scratched Liu Tian'er's nose and said, "Don't you think this twinkling star looks like your eyes? And do you think it looks like the lamb you like to see?"

Liu Tian'er nodded and said, "Yes, why didn't I find out before?"

Li Qingmo said, "Idiot, wasn't I not here before?"

Liu Tian'er nodded and said, "Yes! Qing Mo, you are amazing and know a lot."

Li Qingmo said, "Then how can you thank me?"

Liu Tian'er thought for a while, then put a kiss on Li Qingmo's face and said, "How can I do it?"

Li Qingmo turned to the other side of the cheek and said, "It's not enough for this side, but also for the left side."

Liu Tian'er had no choice but to coax her face and kissed Li Qingmo's face all over, and said after kissing, "Now you don't have anything to say, do you?"

Li Qingmo said, "Yes, there is no here." Li Qingmo pointed to his lips and said.

Liu Tian'er said, "You are lying".

Li Qingmo said, "How can this be considered cheating? This is called fair treatment, come on..." He poked his mouth open.

Liu Tian'er quickly kissed Li Qingmo's lips with a coaxing face, and now Li Qingmo stopped teasing Liu Tian'er, but concentrated on telling Liu Tian'er about the constellations.

Li Qingmo said, "Look at the brightest star is the Big Dipper. When you get lost, just follow it to find your way home. Let me tell you a story about the Big Dipper!"

Liu Tian'er said "Okay, I want to hear it".

Li Qingmo said, "In ancient Greek myths and legends, there was a beautiful and kind girl named Callisto. Among the fairies around Artemis, the moon god and the goddess of hunting, she is the most touching one. But she never relies on herself, she always treats every partner well, and let everyone feel her care from the heart. People also like her very much because of this, and everyone lives carefree and happy together time.

What makes Callisto unique is that there is a strong character in her gentle appearance.She is not like other fairies, wandering by the stream all day long, strolling in the garden, reciting poems, singing and dancing.She always wears a mighty hunting suit, carries a divine bow on her shoulder, and holds a golden spear in her hand. She follows Artemis and bravely chases wild beasts in the mountains and dense forests.The tiger's roar that makes all beasts tremble can't frighten her, and the cunning fox can't escape her vigorous skill.She became the most capable and trusted assistant of Artemis.

One hot summer day, Callisto chased the beast and came to a forest glade.She was hot and tired, so she lay down in the shade, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

All this was seen by the almighty Zeus.In ancient Greek mythology, Zeus is the largest god in the sky and the father of the gods.He is the supreme being, admired by all things, but he often does shady deeds.Secretly seducing goddesses from heaven and beauties from the mortal world was already commonplace for him.

Seeing the beautiful Callisto lying on the green grass, Zeus was stunned, and he naturally refused to let go of such an opportunity.He flew down from the clouds and transformed into the image of Artemis.He approached Callisto gently and took her in his arms.Callisto woke up from his dream, seeing Artemis in this inaccessible place, he felt unspeakably happy.Just about to stand up and continue hunting with Artemis, Zeus suddenly showed his original shape.Poor Callisto was unprepared, and she fought desperately, but to no avail.After all, Zeus is omnipotent. Although Callisto has the ability to subdue dragons and subdue tigers, she still cannot escape from Zeus' clutches.

Zeus returned to the Heavenly Palace triumphantly. He is the master of the universe, so naturally he will not receive any punishment or retribution.Unfortunately, it can only be the innocent Callisto!She wiped away her tears and returned to everyone silently.I can't tell how much pain I have in my heart, but I still have to force myself to smile in front of everyone.However, the former Callisto could no longer be seen.She always lowered her head and looked at the ground in shame; the smile on her face disappeared, and she often sat silently away from the crowd; when hunting, she lost her courage and aura and watched the prey slip away from her eyes.

To make matters worse, she found out she was pregnant.No matter how you hide it, finally one day, everyone still knows the secret.Artemis, who didn't know the inside story at all, was furious. Although she regarded Callisto as her daughter, she couldn't restrain her anger and drove her out of the hunting ground.

The helpless Callisto built a thatched hut deep in the dense forest and settled down. He never saw the scenes of the sisters laughing or heard the call of the goddess again.Not long after, she gave birth to a boy, whom she named Akas, and this became somewhat of a sustenance in her life.

Zeus thought he did this in secret and no one would know.However, God also miscalculated, and his wife Hera, the queen of God, heard about it.Hera was born noble, arrogant and conceited since she was a child, and even Zeus sometimes had to respect her three points.Zeus did such a scandal behind her back, and little Arcas was born, toddling with her mother!Hera, who has always been one-sided, was going crazy. She vowed to use her power to punish Callisto, and let her know the majesty of the Queen of Heaven.

Days later, Hera came to the woodland where Callisto lived, and cursed at her as soon as she saw her. She ignored Callisto's pleading, tore her hair, and threw her to the ground. , said ferociously: "I want to destroy your beauty, so that you can no longer be charming!"

While speaking, Hera secretly cast a spell.Suddenly, Callisto's white arms grew long and thick black hair, her slender fingers turned into sharp claws, and her delicate red lips suddenly turned into bloody mouths.Hera was still angry, she was afraid that Callisto's prayer would be heard by Zeus, so she deprived her of the ability to speak, turning her silver bell-like voice into a dull roar.In the blink of an eye, the angelic Callisto disappeared forever, and she turned into a big bear.

Poor Callisto wanted to cry but had no tears. She could only wail incessantly, lamenting her tragic fate and cursing the merciless Zeus.Once upon a time, that heroic hunter has turned into a beast that the hunter chases, hiding in the deep mountains and old forests all day long, and there is no more peaceful time in the past.

Time flies, 15 years have passed.Little Arcas grew into a handsome young lad, brave and determined like his mother, and became a good hunter.One day, Hera met Arcas by chance, and the enemy's son was so handsome. The anger from more than ten years ago could not help but well up in her heart, and a poisonous plan was born in her heart.

One day, Arcas was looking for prey in the forest with a spear in his hand.Suddenly, a big bear came slowly towards him.This bear is Callisto.She recognized that the brave hunter in front of her was the little Arcas she had been dreaming of for 15 years, and she ran forward excitedly to hug her baby.

My God, how could Arcas have thought that the big bear in front of him was his mother who had been separated for 15 years!Seeing a bear of this size rushing towards him, he jumped back excitedly, raised his spear, and was about to stab the bear with all his strength.

Seeing that a tragedy was about to happen.Fortunately, Zeus, who was patrolling the sky at this time, saw this scene. He really couldn't bear to let his son kill his mother with his own hands.So he performed some magic tricks and turned Arcas into a little bear.In this way, little Arcas recognized his mother immediately.He ran up affectionately and leaned into his mother's arms, and the mother and son were reunited happily.

In order to prevent the mother and child from suffering any accidents, Zeus raised them to heaven and gave them two honorable positions among the stars, which are the constellations of the Great Bear and the Little Bear that shine brightly in the northern sky.

Hera was furious, but she couldn't offend Zeus, so she sent a hunter with two ferocious hounds to chase after the two bears closely.This hunter is the constellation Bootes in the sky, and the two hounds he is leading are the constellation Canes.

The ancient Greeks saw the big bear wandering in the sky every night, never falling below the horizon, and they thought it must be Hera's trick again.It turned out that Hera sent hunters and hounds to chase the mother and son of the bear, but she still refused to give up. She came to the blue sea again to ask her brother, Poseidon, the sea god, for help.The Sea God believed her sister's one-sided words, and agreed to her request.Therefore, we can see that other constellations have the phenomenon of rising in the east and setting in the west. There is always a period of time when they sink below the horizon and go to rest in the territory of Poseidon. Only the big bears are excluded.But that's good, Callisto can always stay by her Arcas side, lest Hera come up with any bad ideas again. After Li Qingmo finished speaking, Liu Tian'er said angrily, "Hera is too bad." (This paragraph is a famous legend, and the smiling face flashed).

Li Qingmo looked at such a cute Tian'er and said with a smile, "Tian'er is right".
