应该是Te baicheng(忒拜城),因为你这可能是篇完形填空,我无法确定是否正确,但是这来自于一篇希腊神话小说,大概讲述的故事是:
忒拜城的国王拉伊俄斯得到预言,自己会死在儿子手中,于是在儿子俄狄普斯出生三天以后,他就把儿子抛弃了.后来,俄狄普斯被科任托斯国王收养,但小俄狄普斯并不知道自己的身世.
有一天,俄狄普斯得知自己不是国王的亲生儿子,于是想阿波罗询问,阿波罗没有指出他的亲生父母,只是说他会杀父娶母,俄害怕预言成真,于是逃离了科任托斯,在路上,他碰到了生父拉伊俄斯和四个随从,在冲突中,俄狄普斯杀死了他不认识的父亲,国王死后不久,人们又遇到了新的灾难,一个人面狮身的妖怪来危害忒拜城,这时,俄狄普斯正在此地,他制服了妖怪,保护了那里的人们,于是他被拥立为王,娶了拉伊俄斯的妻子(他的生母),这样,俄狄普斯犯下了杀父娶母的罪行.
这样平静的度过了16.7年,忒拜发生了瘟疫,神示说要追查杀死先王的凶手,瘟疫才能平息.俄狄普斯爱人民,竭力追查凶手,在追查的过程中他发现自己杀副娶母,于是刺瞎双眼,离开忒拜,开始流浪生活.
因此,推断可能是去忒拜城才遇到他的父亲!
