First appeared in the church. It's Christmas Eve and people are confessing. I didn't expect to look up and see a sword stuck in a square stone. There is a gold inscription around: "whoever can pull this sword out of the stone platform and be born in England will be the king of all England." When people present tried to pull out their swords after mass, no one could pull them out. So the bishop ordered ten highly respected knights to guard the sword. In the new year, the knights took part in the competition. Arthur's adoptive father Hector took his son Kay to the championship. Because Arthur was younger, he might not have been knighted at that time, so he didn't participate. Careless Kay forgot his sword, so he asked Arthur to ride to get it. When Arthur arrived at their boarding house, he found that the host had locked the door to watch the game. In despair, Arthur remembered the sword in the stone. He hurried to the church, only to find that all ten knights had gone to watch the game. In despair, Arthur grabbed the hilt and immediately pulled out his sword. When he handed the sword to Kay, Kay recognized it at a glance and gave it to his father. At that time, hector didn't believe that Arthur could pull out the sword, so he put the sword into the stone again, but neither he nor Kay could pull it out, and Arthur pulled out the sword easily. Because Arthur was too young, many people didn't want him to be king, so they asked him to draw his sword again. I don't know how many times I tried, but the people began to agree with Arthur and opposed the repeated delays of the nobles. Arthur soon became king of England. Later, Arthur's sword in stone was cut off in a duel with King Perinaud. Fortunately, with the help of magician Merlin, Arthur escaped. Because the sword was very important to the knight, Merlin led him to the lake to get the sword. Note (1) This is because you can be king if you own a large area of land at that time. For example, Mark, the uncle of Tristram, the knight of the Round Table, is the king of Cornwall, and Cornwall is a part of Wales, so there will be many kings in Wales. (2) According to records, nobles can only be knighted at the age of 2 1.

[Edit this paragraph] 2. The Famous Sword in Western Legends-Nordic Myth

1. [gram] ~ Legends of Germany and Northern Europe [Sword of Victory] Times: Sigurut Times: Northern Europe and Middle Ages Germany: Iceland, Norway, Germany: "Eda" and other [grams] appeared in famous legends told in Germany and Northern Europe, and they were long swords shining with heroic victory and representing their heroic life. The following descriptions are based on the legend of heroes, and these legends have a great influence on the fantasy works now. The highest hero of Germany in the early Middle Ages and the Viking era in northern Europe was Siegfried, which was also very famous in Wagner's operas (called Sigurut in northern Europe). His sword is said to be a famous sword forged by dwarves-Keke. Siegfried (or Sigmund) is an ancient Germanic warrior, widely spread in Germany and northern Europe. Although his deeds are not recorded in real books, the time of the story can be determined as the great migration period of the German nation. Compared with Germanic tribes, the attalla of Xiongnu also appeared. Siegfried fought fiercely with his opponent for his wife, family and honor. It is said that this legend shows the complete Germanic spirit, so what is the heroic image depicted in the story? VolsungaSaga is a chronicle of the legend of heroes in Iceland in the Viking era, which revised the prose and ballads in the ancient Nordic narrative poem Eda. The story begins with [Sigurut's grandfather] and [King Balusenger]. As a descendant of Odin, the Nordic god, [Balusenger] married the daughter of the slave giant of God [Wa Roucoule] and had two children. His son [Zygomont] is an unparalleled brave man, and his twin sister [Signy] is an unparalleled beauty. They live in a big house surrounded by big trees, which are called "children's trees". The tribal king [Siegel], who had been enemies with [Balusenger] for many years, was drooling over [Signy]' s beauty. He asked [Balusenger] to be his wife, and promised that as long as this happened, peace could be achieved between the two families. On the wedding day of [King Siegel] and [Signy], a one-eyed man in rags and a hat visited the big house. He stabbed the sword into the children's tree. The man said, "whoever pulls out this sword as a reward is the owner of this sword!" " "After that, he drifted away. This man is Odin, and the sword he brought is the symbol of the sword that can bring victory and glory to Balusenge clan. Everyone in the big house tried, but only Roucoule's son (Zygmont) drew his sword. [Siegel] wanted to exchange [Zygmont's] sword with gold equal to three times the weight of the sword, but [Zygmont] refused, on the grounds that "if the sword is yours, you should pull it out". So [Siegel] was furious. He started a war and killed all the Baluchi people except [Zygmont] and [Signy]. (Zygmont) escaped with the help of his sister (Signy). In revenge [Siegel], two men decided to have a child to inherit the clan incense. Their child was named Yaote, Clindamycin Phosphate Glucose Injection. [Yao Te of Clindamycin Phosphate Glucose Injection] grew up under their care, and [Zygmont] decided to take revenge. But their behavior was discovered by [Siegel], who set a trap to catch them and put [Zygmont] and others in the stone grave. [Siegel] set a huge rock between [ZYMMONT] and [Yaote of Clindamycin Phosphate and Glucose Injection] so that they could not meet. It was [Signi] who saved them. She took advantage of the opportunity of delivering food to take [Jian Ganke] to their cell. So [Zygmont] successfully escaped by splitting the rock with a thin sword and set fire to [Siegel]' s house. After revenge, [Signi] and her husband [Siegel] died together ... so [Zygmont] became king, but his son [Yaote, Clindamycin Phosphate Glucose Injection] died of food poisoning once. [Zygomont] married the beautiful and clever [Sherdes] in order to continue his bloodline. But at the price, he had to fight against [Longby] who also wanted [Hurdes]. [Zygmont] brandished a rapier to fight against [Longobi]' s army, but his rapier was resisted by [Odin's Gun-Gunnar], [rapier] was broken, and [Zygmont] was seriously injured and died. Before he died, he entrusted people around him to give broken arrow to his wife [Hurdes], and asked them to tell her that he would give [Jianke] to his son [Sigurut] in the future, and predicted that his son would make great achievements with this sword and leave his name in the world. After Zygmont's death, his wife (Hurdes) gave birth to a son (Sigurut). Because he had no father, he was fostered in the home of the giant [Reagan]. [Reagan] There was a brother named [fafnir], who was given gold stolen from the Rhine dwarves by God in the past. He turned himself into a dragon, always guarding this treasure. [Reagan] promised to cast a sword for [Sigurut], and in return, [Sigurut] would kill [fafnir] for him and win gold. [Sigurut] promised him, but said he must have a sword that can kill dragons. [Reagan] showed his superb sword-making skills, but at the beginning, no matter what kind of sword he made, [Sigurut] broke his hand with a wave of his hand. In desperation, [Sigurut] took out the fragments of his father's relic [Jianjianke] that he got from his mother. [Reagan] said that if you can't make a good sword with this metal, he will never make a sword again in his life. Finally, [Sigurut] got the regenerative sword as he wished. [Sigurutana] sets out to find [fafnir] with the reborn [Gram the Sword Man]. In the battle, [Xi Jianke] ran cleanly through the scales of [fafnir] and dug out his heart. After learning that [Sigurut] killed [fafnir], [Reagan] let him eat [fafnir's heart]. [Sigurut] Touched his heart with his hand, but his fingers were burned. In a panic, he put his finger in his mouth and sucked, so the dragon's blood entered his body. He heard the bird talking, and he learned from the conversation that [Reagan] wanted to kill him. Later, [Sigurut] killed [Reagan] with [Jianjianke]. In this way, [Sigurut] took away the treasure of [fafnir] and got the nickname "Hero of Dragon and Black Boy". [Sigurut] One day, I stood at the top of the mountain and looked out, and found a city surrounded by flames. When he finally got there, he found a beautiful woman sleeping. Her name is [Bren Hill]. She is a subordinate of Odin, whose name means "armor and fighting". Beautiful and elegant, she wears armor and holds weapons, and has a belligerent and brave character. [Sigurut] was moved by her beauty and courage, expressed her love and gave her the [gold ring] she got from [fafnir]. But there is also a man who loves brunhild deeply. His name is Kunar. [Kunar]' s mother took [Sigurut] home and made him drink the wine he had lost his memory. In this way, [Sigurut] forgot [brunhild] and married [Kunar's] sister [Goudron]. [Kunar] went to see [brunhild], but he could not cross the wall surrounded by flames, so he entrusted [Sigurut] to see [brunhild] instead of him. [Sigurut] promised him and went to the city to spend the night with [Bren Hill]. But he doesn't want to betray his wife. When he left at dawn, he took the [gold ring] he gave to [Bren Hill] and gave it to his wife [Goudron]. In this way, two couples live together, but [Bren Hilde] feels that [Sigurut] who once showed his love to himself betrayed himself. Later, she found that the ring given to her by Sigurut was on Goudron's hand, and she realized that the person who went to town that day was not Kunar, but Sigurut. After learning this, [Bren Hilde] was furious and she decided to kill [Sigurut]. [Kunar] listened to his wife's entreaties and asked his brother [Gutrum] to do it. One day, while [Sigurut] was sleeping, [Gutum] stabbed him to death, but [Sigurut] threw [Jianjianke] hard before he died, splitting [Gutum] in half. When Siguru Express died, he told the truth to Bren Hill. [brunhild] It was painful to know the truth. He committed suicide with [Jian Jianke] and was with his real husband. [Kunar] Buried them together, [Jian Ganke] became a funerary object, sleeping under the soil forever ... Song of NiBelgen, a medieval German narrative poem, is a biographical poem telling the story of ancient Germany, just like Volgograd above. This work depicts the story of [Sigurut] and [brunhild] meeting and betraying each other, but only touches on the previous plot of killing dragons. In addition, the names of the characters in the play are all German. For example, Sigurut is called Siegfried and Kunar is called Kunta. Others have different settings from Nordic legends. For example, [brunhild] asked to compete with [Sigurut] who climbed over the flame wall, and agreed to his proposal after defeating himself. Other parts are almost the same, but there are not many descriptions of swords in Song of Ni Belgen, which can reflect the different social customs of the two nations. In Song of NiBelgen, [Sigurut] holds a [famous sword Baluchi Menke] more than two meters long, but there is no such description in Wolsonggaga. At the time of the story, the swords used by the Vikings were generally [double-edged swords], and [Jian Jian Ke] may also be of this shape. This sword has a huge blade, the blade opposite the blade is called the lower blade, and the lower blade is equipped with a handle. The blade and hilt are two parts. The blade emphasizes strength and the hilt is ornate. As we all know, many highly praised blades are made by craftsmen along the Rhine River. The Rhine is still famous for smelting iron, and the Damascus knives produced here can be said to be household names. The shape of 【 Jian Gan Ke 】 is very similar to that of the sword now, and it can be said that it is the ancestor of the cold weapon sword now. There are many similarities between the Sword in this story and the Excalibur in the legend of King Arthur, such as the plot that Zygmont, the father of Sigurut, pulls out the sword that God inserted in the trunk. In addition, the description of [Jianjianke] buried with Sigurut is similar to that of [King Arthur] and [Excalibur]. [Swordsman] appeared in the world as an extraordinary image and left with the death of the hero. It has made great achievements with heroes, but how many people can really remember their names? 2. [Giant's Sword] ~ Owner of a huge weapon from ancient times: Beowulf Times: Medieval Europe: Nordic Publishing: "Beowulf" and "Sigurut" are legendary Nordic heroes [Beowulf], who defeated the monster [Glendale] and his mother [the king of the underwater demon dragon]. Among the weapons appearing in the stories about him, the most distinctive one should be said that Beowolf is a the legend of heroes who appeared in England in the 8th century. The story is written in English, and the legendary stage is in northern Europe such as Denmark and Norway. Like most German and Nordic legends, Beowolf has all kinds of famous swords. [Beowulf] is the son of [Etat] soldier [Egisevo] who lives in southern Sweden. He is big and powerful. He inherited his father's bravery and was active in the battlefield when he was very young. One day, [Beowulf] learned that a monster named [Glendale] appeared in Denmark in the distance and attacked the palace of [King Roska]. In order to repel the monster, [Beowulf] led fifteen people to Denmark. Glendale is a descendant of Cain, who was accused of killing his brother in the Bible. He has a huge body, mysterious strength and hard skin, and ordinary knives and guns can't hurt him at all. [Beowulf] Challenged his opponent and agreed not to use weapons if the other side fought empty-handed. Fierce fighting began. [Beowulf's men helped him fight with swords and bows, but they couldn't do any harm to [Glendale] at all. Finally, [Beowulf] finally cut off [Glendale's hand. Glendale, who lost his wrist, escaped, and Beowulf decorated his wrist on the court wall. At this time, Glendale, who returned to his residence, died of excessive wrist bleeding, and his mother was very angry. As an underwater monster, she came to Beowulf's palace to retrieve her son's wrist and take revenge on him. This underwater monster, Bigren Dale, is even bigger. It has claws like swords on its hands. The monster killed the court gatekeeper and took the arm of Glendale decorated on the wall. So [Beowulf] came to Denmark again. He borrowed [the famous sword Frentin] from [King Roska] and went to the monster's residence alone. The two sides fought fiercely at the monster's residence. Because the opponent's skin is harder than Glendale's, even the famous sword fruit can't hurt her. On the contrary, [Beowulf] was scratched by a monster. When he was helpless, [Beowulf] found a huge sword he got from Baoshan in Glendale. This is a very big epee, which ordinary soldiers can't lift at all. At first glance, it is not a weapon forged for mankind. So [Beowulf] took this sword and challenged his opponent again. As a result, with the powerful power of this sword, he cut off the monster's head cleanly. [Beowulf] cut off the head of [Glendale] who died of injury before and took it back to [King Roska]' s residence as a trophy. However, the sword that cut off the magic weapon melted because the blade absorbed the blood of the magic weapon, leaving only the golden hilt. Beowulf, who knocked down Glendale and his mother, became the most famous hero, and then he continued to take risks. Finally, in a battle with the dragon, he died unfortunately because he was infected with venom. The sword that brought down [Mother Glendale] was not made for mankind. It is a weapon that was destroyed by the flood and resisted the giant of God depicted in Genesis. It is a terrible epee, with a total length of more than two meters. It is said that [Beowulf] is very tall. I'm afraid only he can use this sword. The blade is made of steel, and the body is graceful. Because the body dissolves all kinds of metals, it becomes very hard. It is said that modern workshops along the Rhine River still use this sword making method. In addition, this sword is equipped with a large number of gems on the handle made of gold. The end of the handle is annular, and the ring is decorated with the shape of a snake. The swords forged by goblins and dwarves have appeared many times in the legends of Celtic and Germanic nations, but the giant swords built for giants are few and far between, and the "Giant Sword" mentioned in this legend has also been melted by the blood of magical objects, which is a very unexpected tragic ending. This sword was born purely for fighting and died because of fighting. From another perspective, it also implies the fate of a hero like Beowulf. After all, the glory brought by blood will not last long, and as time goes by, it will eventually return to dust. 3.[ Harper] ~ [Sword of Poerxiusi] who cut off Medusa's head Owner: Poerxiusi era: ancient Greece: Silas: Silas & the publication of Roman mythology [Poerxiusi] is famous for defeating [Medusa] and saving the girl [Andlau Moda]. He holds the famous sword given by the gods of Olympus, which has helped him win many victories. Poerxiusi, a famous hero in Greek mythology, was a demigod born of Zeus and beautiful Shen Jianing. When [Shen Jianing]' s father [Acres] heard the prophecy that he would be killed by [Shen Jianing]' s son, [Acres] put her in a dungeon to prevent her from having children. However, Zeus, who admired her beauty, came to meet her in her room and gave birth to Poerxiusi. The name Poerxiusi means "golden light shining". (Acrisius) knew the news, put (Shen Jianing) and his mother in a box and threw them into the sea. Later, they were saved by the fisherman [Dictus]. Later, [Poerxiusi] was adopted by [King Prudantius] and grew up gradually. Poerxiusi wanted to list her mother as a princess when she was an adult, so she hated Poerxiusi and never left her for a moment. When Poerxiusi learned that the king hated him, he asked the king to give him a horse. In return, he wanted to get Medusa's head back. [Medusa] is an ugly witch with snake hair, and the youngest of the three sisters of the gorgon. All three of them were beautiful girls, but their beauty was envied by the gods, which turned their bodies and minds into ugly forms. Poerxiusi, the son of God, got help from the Olympians. He first discovered three white-haired banshees named Greer, who were also Medusa's sisters. [Greer's three sisters] * * * Enjoy one eye and one tooth. Poerxiusi first stole their teeth and eyes with clever tricks, forcing them to tell the way to find the fairy. He got the cloud shoes, the invisibility helmet and the sacred sac from the fairy (another legend is that Greer owns these three treasures, and Poerxiusi stole their eyes and teeth for their hands). [Hermes] gave [Poerxiusi] a rapier harp that can kill monsters, and the goddess [Athena] gave him a shiny [shield] with Athena's portrait on it. When Poerxiusi found Medusa, she was sleeping. Because anyone who sees Medusa will be petrified, he can't get close to her. Poerxiusi is invisible with Hadders's pocket, shows where Medusa is with Athena's shield, and cuts off her head with a sword harp. [Medusa] is dead, but her head is still not safe. [Poerxiusi] Put her head in the bag. Poerxiusi is on his way home. On the way, he came to the coast of Ethiopia, where he found a young girl locked up. The girl's name is [Andlau Moda], because her mother offended [Poseidon] and was sacrificed to the sea monster. Poerxiusi saved her by cutting the chain with his [light sword harp] and killed the huge monster that appeared in the sea. Thus, Andromeda is safe. Poerxiusi proposed to her, and they went home together. When they returned to their hometown, the story of Poerxiusi also spread. But [King Poldektus] didn't believe that he could stand the test, so he doubted his achievements. The king said, "If you really knocked down [Medusa], show me the evidence." . Poerxiusi was furious. He took Medusa's head out of the capsule and turned it to the king, so [King Prudantius] turned to stone. Poerxiusi married Andromeda and lived a happy life after marriage. He dedicated the frightening [Medusa's head] and [divine shield] to [Athena]. [Athena] Buried her head in the middle of the shield and made it a symbol of herself. The sword harp was returned to the gods, and the sword was later used by Hercules. [Poerxiusi] The sword Harper, which was used to chop off the head of Medusa, was depicted in various shapes in the legend. In some legends, its blade is curved like a sickle, but there are also stories that it is shaped like a meniscus ... This [zigzag rapier Harper] is probably not the [double-edged straight sword] commonly used by Greeks, but a [single-edged curve]. In Roman times, [Turkish swordsmen] held machetes shaped like vultures' claws when hunting. [Poerxiusi's sword] may be modeled after this machete. ...
