medusa
medusa (Greek: μ? Δ ο υ σ α (also translated as Medusa) is a banshee in Greek mythology and one of the three banshees in Gorgon. Her father is Forcus, and her mother is Ceto, the sea monster. Her hair is full of snakes. According to the poet Ovid's Metamorphoses 4.77, she used to be a beautiful girl, because she dated Poseidon privately (some versions said that Medusa was overreached and compared with the goddess of wisdom because she thought she was beautiful, and another version was cursed by Athena), and Athena turned Medusa's hair into a poisonous snake in a rage. Medusa was finally taken down by Perseus and presented to Athena, who embedded Medusa's head in the center of Aegis. Later, the word Medusa had the meaning of "extremely ugly woman". In addition, it is said that Medusa and Poseidon had two children, and these two children came out of Medusa's body after she was killed. They are: Pegasus Pegasus (later became Pegasus) and the giant Chrysaor (χ υ σ? ωρ)。 In Greek mythology, Medusa was originally a mortal. It is said that Medusa was once a beautiful girl, and although arrogance was loved by Poseidon, it was said to be more beautiful than the goddess in the temple of the goddess of wisdom. Athena was enraged. She used magic to turn Medusa's hair into countless poisonous snakes. The beauty became a monster. What's more frightening is that her eyes are shining with terrible light, and anyone who only looks at her will immediately become a lifeless big stone.
Poerxiusi, the son of Zeus
Poerxiusi, the son of Zeus, knew the secret, so he turned his back, used a bright shield as a mirror, found Medusa, and cut off her head with the help of Athena and Hermes. Pegasus, a winged flying horse, and Chrysaor, a giant, both descended from Medusa. Poerxiusi rode a Pegasus flying out of Medusa's blood, was attacked by a strong wind in the air, and was blown from side to side. The blood dripping from Medusa's head fell into the Libyan desert and became a poisonous snake. Although Medusa's blood is highly toxic, it has special power, which once gave Ericthonius the ability to bring back the dead. Poerxiusi killed Cetus, a sea monster, with the cut head of Medusa. When he returned, he gave it to Athena, who fixed it in the middle of his shield and breastplate. Medusa's head is often used by artists on symbolic badges, architectural decorations and even Athens coins, and also on soldiers' shields.

Introduction
Medusa (clash of the titans)
(also translated as Medusa or Medusa) She has a full head of snake hair and a pair of wild boar's fangs. Even her neck is covered with snake scales, and even her lower body has become a snake's appearance. (Most of them are rattlesnake's lower body, and even her lower body has become such a proud rattlesnake's lower body because of humiliating her.) Medusa was originally a beautiful woman (rumored to be Poseidon's child). One legend is that Athena was jealous of her hair. More widely circulated legend is that Poseidon was attracted by Medusa's beauty and raped her in Athena's temple, which angered Athena. Athena couldn't punish Poseidon, so she turned Medusa into a terrible snake hair. There is also a saying that Medusa is Poseidon's lover, because Poseidon once watched the sea kingdom he ruled with her everywhere. At that time, Poseidon said that Athena had taken Athens by unfair means. This was a joke, but it was believed by Medusa. Shortly afterwards, Medusa ordered her two sisters to make trouble in Athens. As a result, Athena and Luna learned that Athena could not stand Medusa's contempt for her and his two sisters' arrogance, and Although I knew this was his uncle's masterpiece, I had to take it out on Medusa because I couldn't get revenge. After my uncle found Medusa, I scolded Medusa in a rage, saying that she was attractive in beauty and vicious in heart, and only an ugly face could match her vicious heart, turning her into a femme fatale with a snake hair in magic eye. This is the version of the Korean anime Olympus. Poerxiusi, the son of Zeus, the snake demon Medusa, knew the secret, so he turned his back, used a bright shield as a mirror, found Medusa, and cut off her head with the help of Athena and Hermes. Pegasus, a winged flying horse, and Chrysaor, a giant, both descended from Medusa. Chrysaor rode a Pegasus flying out of Medusa's blood, was attacked by a strong wind in the air, and was blown from side to side. The blood dripping from Medusa's head fell into the Libyan desert and became a poisonous snake. Although Medusa's blood is highly toxic, it has special power, which once gave Ericthonius the ability to bring back the dead. Poerxiusi killed Cetus, a sea monster, with the cut head of Medusa. When he returned, he gave it to Athena, who fixed it in the middle of his shield and breastplate. Medusa's head is often used by artists on symbolic badges, architectural decorations and even Athens coins, and also on soldiers' shields.

Legend 1
I remember a legend about Medusa: she is a beautiful girl with long green hair and sapphire blue eyes like the sea. She was born in Greece and sailed at sea with her lover. She feels very happy. Unfortunately, darkness soon came, and a group of pirates boarded their ship. In order to protect herself, her lover betrayed her to pirates. Pain, sadness, anger, despair. She cursed herself in her insults, cursed the pirates who betrayed her, cursed the sea that brought her misfortune, and cursed the god who looked at everything mercilessly. Medusa Sculpture
Her hair began to grow longer, with sharp teeth, forming a snake head. Her eyes are gone, and everyone who has seen her eyes has turned to stone. She wants those hateful men never to be reincarnated. Hatred filled her whole heart, and she had forgotten the warmth of the world and didn't remember that there was love in the world. She indulges herself and never lets anyone who approaches her go. She's retaliating, in the most vicious way. People began to fear her. She is getting farther and farther away from this world. God looked at everything quietly, at the injured woman. God said: be calm, don't let hatred fill your heart, and don't let yourself fall.
Legend 2
This legend is the most complete version of Greek legend, which contains the most fairy tales of constellations. Cepheus, Cassiopeia, Andromeda, Perseus, Pegasus and Cetus There is a city in the west of the Greek Peninsula called Argos, and King Acrisius has a very beautiful and lovely princess named Danae. In order to prevent his daughter from getting to know men, he built a bronze tower and locked Dana in it, so no one was allowed to get close. Zeus, who is naturally romantic, will certainly not let go of such beauty. He turned into a golden rain and spilled it into the copper tower through the only window to meet Dana. Ten months later, Dana gave birth to a healthy and lively boy named Perseus, which means "glittering". After hearing this, Acrisius was going to kill them, but killing relatives would be sent by heaven, Erinyes, the nemesis, would pursue them, and he couldn't bear to do it, so Acrisius decided to put Dana and her son in a wooden box and throw them into the sea to die. The wooden box drifted with the sea to an island called Cyprus, and was rescued by Dictys, the younger brother of the king of the island. He liked Perseus very much, and even accepted him as an adopted son and raised him as an adult. Eighteen years later, Perseus grew up and became a handsome and brave blond boy. Polydectes, Dick's brother, took a fancy to Dana early in the morning and wanted to marry her, but she refused him on the grounds of raising Perseus, so he always regarded Perseus as a thorn in his side. At a birthday party, Politex feasted on the royal family, and he deliberately invited Perseus to the party to find an opportunity to ridicule him. Perseus didn't bring any gifts, so he said that he could bring anything back to the king as a gift if he asked. Politex deliberately asked for the head of Medusa, the gorgon. Perseus, a young and competitive man, knew nothing about Medusa, but he wanted to take the risk, so he agreed to Politex. In fact, Politex wanted to take this opportunity to keep Perseus from coming back and let him die under the gorgon. Perseus was afraid of his mother's worry, so he left without saying goodbye and went alone to find the legendary gorgon. Medusa, the gorgon, was originally a beautiful girl, and she also had two sisters with immortal ancestry. She was the only mortal among the three gorgons, with legendary fatal seductive eyes, living in the far west, and was the daughter of another unknown sea god, Forcus. Poseidon, the god of the sea, was tempted to turn into a fine horse and have an affair with her. In order to escape the jealousy of Amphitti after Poseidon, he hid in the temple of Athena, which angered Athena and angered her two sisters, so she turned all three sisters into monsters. Another way of saying it: Medusa used to be a beautiful girl. Because she boasted that she was more beautiful than Athena, the goddess of wisdom took away all her beauty, leaving her with an ugly monster body. ) They are covered with golden scales and have eagle wings on their backs, while Medusa has swan wings on her back and no hair on her head, but it is still difficult to hide her beauty. As long as anyone has seen her eyes, they will be attracted by her beauty and magic and lose their souls and become a stone statue. People call them Gorg (sound meaning: Gog or Gorgon), and no one knows where they live. When Perseus was ready to set out to find the gorgon, a friendly old fisherman by the sea offered to help him and lent him some treasures. It turned out that the old fisherman was the incarnation of Athena. The treasures she lent to Perseus were: a pair of shoes that Hermes could fly, a hat that Hades could hide when wearing, a leather bag that could expand and contract at will, and a diamond sword that was as sharp as mud. Athena also lent him her shield. The goddess instructed him to find The Grey Women to defeat Gao Ge. Grey Niang is Gao Ge's sister, who lives at the west end of the sea. They were very old when they were born. Three people take turns to enjoy one eye and one tooth. Only they know where Gao Ge is and how to defeat him. Perseus went to Grey Niang's house to hide, and when one of them took off his eyes and gave them to another, he snatched them away. Perseus threatened to crush his eyes if they didn't tell him how to defeat Gog. In desperation, Grey Niang had to tell Perseus. Perseus followed Grey Niang's instructions and came to the island where Gog lived. Using Athena's shield, he reflected
Medusa (14 photos) to show the correct position of the three sisters, and while the three were asleep, he slowly retreated to Medusa's side, cut off her head with a sword and put it in a leather bag. At this time, the other two elder brothers woke up, saw their sister's tragic death, and wanted to find Perseus, the murderer who killed her. Unfortunately, Perseus put on his invisibility hat and flying shoes, but the two elder brothers could not see him, and he left with Medusa's head. The blood flowing from Medusa's neck suddenly burst into smoke, and a winged flying horse flew out. This is Pegasus, and the giant Chrysaor also came out after Perseus left. They are all descendants of Poseidon. Perseus took a leather bag with Medusa's head and rode back to Pei Gasos. On the way, when he passed the coast of Ethiopia, he saw a beautiful woman naked and tied to the hanging shore with iron. She looked very pitiful. Perseus then went over and asked. It turned out that she was a princess of this country, named Andromeda. Her mother was vain and conceited about her beauty. She once boasted that she was more beautiful than Nereid, a fairy in the sea, and people were not allowed to visit her, so Poseidon was offended. Poseidon caused a tsunami to flood the country's land and destroy people's houses. The only way was to dedicate her daughter Andromeda to the sea monster. When Perseus knew the whole thing, he was duty-bound to promise to defeat the sea monster for her and save her from here. Suddenly there was a rumbling noise on the sea, and the waves suddenly parted. A sea monster with a black body, a one-horned head and a trident-shaped tail rushed towards the suspended shore where they were. Perseus, wearing take-off shoes and holding a sword as sharp as mud, jumped into the air and attacked the sea monster. He stabbed the sea monster with his sword, then took out Medusa's head in a leather bag and turned the sea monster into a stone (the whale constellation refers to this sea monster). Perseus took Andromeda back to the palace in Ethiopia. King Cepheus and Queen Cassiopeia warmly greeted them. They were very grateful to Perseus for saving their beloved daughter and decided to marry her. In fact, they admired each other early in the morning. Even if the king didn't ask for it, Perseus would ask for Andromeda as his wife. The legend of medusa
On the day of their grand wedding in Ethiopia, Andromeda's original fiance Phineus led an army to make trouble and was dissatisfied with the king's violation of the engagement. But King Sippes said, "When your fiancee is in trouble, you will only hide in a safe place. On the contrary, the brave Perseus spared no effort to save her. He is the one who really cares about Andromeda. You simply don't.
