Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 179 Ancient Forbidden Technique! (Second more)
It turned out that Duke Ai of Qi was not called Duke Ai of Qi, but Duke Ren of Qi.

The word "ren" is actually taken from the year of enthronement.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, the ten heavenly stems refer to the year, while the twelve earthly branches refer to the month.

It's just that after Qi Aigong, King Zhou Yi established his successor Lu Jing as "Qi Hu Gong", and this tradition is no longer used.

Of course, there are other reasons. After all, there are only ten heavenly stems, and there is a reincarnation every ten years. This will easily cause the later successors to repeat the titles of the previous kings. It is very necessary to change.

But this is not important, Wu Liang is more concerned about the real reason why Duke Ai of Qi, Lv Buchen, was "cooked to death" by King Zhou Yi.

This "History of Qi" records that it was true that Lu Buchen was "cooked and killed" by King Zhou Yi, but it was not because of the slander of Ji Guojun, but because Lu Buchen took the blame himself.

According to "History of Qi", Lu Buchen practiced an ancient alchemy called "disgusting charm".

The so-called "disgusting charm" is a very ancient method of cursing: "Carve wood into a puppet, and burn it day and night in the sun and moon, and wish and curse on it."

This thing is similar to the "grass-tying man" of later generations, except that the "disgust" uses a small puppet. The caster writes the name and birth date of the cursed person on the small puppet, and after an extremely After the mysterious and complex casting, nails are driven into the puppet to cause the cursed person to suffer the corresponding pain.

Somehow this matter reached the ears of King Zhou Yi.

At that time, although the "heinous" crime established after the Qin Dynasty had not been established, such heresy alchemy had already been designated as a forbidden technique, and anyone who used or practiced it would be sentenced to death.

So King Zhou Yi arrested Lu Buchen, who ordered him, and found many small puppets in his home, including the puppet with King Zhou Yi's name and birthday written on it.

King Zhou Yi was furious, so he ordered people to "cook torture" on Lu Buchen!
Because of this, Lu Buchen also left a name in history, called "Lu Buchen".

However, this incident did not end here. After Lu Buchen was "cooked and killed", his half-brother Lu Jing was named "Qi Hu Gong" by King Zhou Yi to take over the throne.

Lu Buchen's younger brother, Lu Shan, and his family's cronies first secretly took back Lu Buchen's "corpse", which could no longer be regarded as a corpse, for a generous burial, and then used the reason of "suspecting the big ones" to suspect that it was a dead body. It was Duke Hu of Qi, Lu Jing, who informed King Zhou Yi...

This makes sense, Lu Buchen obviously has brothers from the same mother, and there are many other brothers, why did King Zhou Yi choose Lu Jing as the next King of Qi?
Moreover.

The establishment of a new king was originally the internal affairs of the Lu family of Qi State. Even if King Zhou Yi was the emperor, there were very few emperors in history who interfered with the internal affairs of the princes' families, which is really unreasonable.

Therefore, Lu Shan and Lu Buchen's remaining family members and cronies began to plan to get rid of Lu Jing to avenge her.

Two years later, Lu Shan successfully planned to kill Lu Jing, became the next Qi king "Qi Xiangong", and expelled the sons of Qi Hugong Lu Jing from the country.

Unexpectedly, more than 30 years later, the throne passed to the "Qi Li Gong" Lu Wuji, and the former heir of Qi Hu Gong Lu Jing returned to Qi, and died together with Qi Li Gong Lu Wuji.

In the end, the Qi State had no choice but to appoint Lu Chi, the son of Duke Li of Qi, as the monarch, and he was named "Duke Wen of Qi".

Since then, the civil strife in the court of Qi State, which lasted for more than forty years, finally came to an end. Qi State has united as one, and finally officially opened its own Spring and Autumn Hegemony...

……

This "History of Qi" has been sorted out here for the time being.

If he hadn't read the records in "History of Qi", Wu Liang would never have imagined that Duke Ai of Qi was boiled and killed by King Zhou Yi for such a reason, which is simply unimaginable.

Maybe it was influenced by the court drama of later generations.

Originally, in his impression, "wearing charm" and "trapping villains" should be the means only used by concubines in the harem.

Unexpectedly, Qi Aigong, a big man, would practice this kind of thing.

Moreover, looking at the description in "The History of Qi", it seems that Qi Aigong's "disgusting charm" is not an ordinary trick to bluff people, but a thaumaturgy that requires hard practice to succeed.

Although there were no specific examples of success in harming others, King Zhou Yi, who had been subjected to the "spell of delusion" by him, lived well afterwards.

But after reading it, it will still give people a feeling of ignorance. After all, before that, the "Spell of Disgusting Enchantment" has been designated as a forbidden technique that will be punished with capital punishment. This can also show from the side that it is very It may have really existed, and it may have brought a lot of influence and panic to people.

What is even more surprising is that the kingdom of Wa, China's maritime neighbor, also had "the art of dispelling charms", and according to records, Wa's "skill of dispelling charms" was passed down from the Celestial Dynasty, and it was around this period.

and.

Because Qi State is close to the sea, the shipping industry is very developed, and it has the same ability as the Wa State very early. This also proves the existence of the "Spell of Disgusting Enchantment" from another aspect, and if you have to contact, it seems that you can also Forcibly connected with Qi Aigong's "Spell of Disgusting Enchantment"...

Besides.

Wu Liang also got an important clue related to the ancient tomb from "The History of Qi"!
It said that after Lu Shan and Lu Buchen's family members secretly took back his "body", they were buried in Bogu, not far from Yingqiu, the capital of Qi State.

Now Yingqiu has been renamed "Linzi", and Bo Gu is fifty miles northwest of Linzi. Although I am not sure what the name of this Bo Gu is now, the exact location and distance are correct. This point has long been known in the archaeological world After confirming it, Wu Liang didn't need to doubt it.

However, the so-called "Qi Ai Cemetery" has not been discovered by later archaeologists.

I don't know if it was stolen a long time ago, or if it was hidden too deep and has not been explored.

Therefore, even if he knew the approximate location of the "Qi Ai Cemetery", Wu Liang was not sure whether he could find it, let alone whether the tomb still existed.

After all, Duke Ai of Qi died in 868 BC, even if it is the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty where he is now, there is a difference of thousands of years.

During these 1000 years, many things can happen.

Maybe the "Qi Ai Cemetery" has been stolen countless times, or it may have collapsed or been buried deep in the ground... who knows?
But Wu Liang still planned to try his luck.

Because at this stage, Lu Bu and Zhang Miao failed to seize Yanzhou this time, and did not separate Boss Cao's territory. The small piece of Linzi belonging to Qingzhou is still in the hands of Boss Cao.

If it takes another one or two years, when Yuan Shao reaches out to Qingzhou, this place will change hands again.

From then on, until the end of the Battle of Guandu, it was impossible for Boss Cao to take Qingzhou back, and it was difficult for him to get a chance to explore again.

Also.

This is the first ancient tomb that Wu Liang encountered that may be related to the "Ancient Forbidden Art". Experience and challenge, there is always a feeling that if you don't go and see it, you will regret it in the future.

"That's it. After the beginning of spring, I will arrange the affairs of Yongqiu properly, and I will take people to visit the Qiai Cemetery first!"

Wu Liang had secretly made a decision in his heart.

Even if he didn't find Qi Ai's cemetery in the end, he didn't lose anything, not to mention that he just robbed Haihunhou's tomb, Boss Cao shouldn't be short of military pay recently.

Even if this trip comes back empty-handed, it is not a problem for him.
