Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 886 I'm Not God
As the sun was setting, Chen Laochong walked to the gate of Pingxi Fort where he lived, sweating profusely, carrying a hard bow and Hu Lu on his shoulders.

Although Pingxi Fort is just a fort, it is actually very large, and it can be called Pingxi City.

This fort is located in the heart of the Hehuang Valley, the Datong River Valley, and is a key point of traffic in Qinghai, Dafeichuan, Batang Plateau and Longyou.

Although the altitude is higher, there is abundant rainfall and the nourishment of the big river. Therefore, although the fields are only [-] to [-] mu, they are all high-yielding fields.

The pasture area is nearly 50 mu, and all of them are very good plateau pastures.

There are a total of more than [-] households in Pingxi Fort. If the grassland is also converted into mu, the average land owned by each household is as high as more than [-] mu.

If the large amount of commercial income brought by the superior geographical conditions of Fort Pingxi is included, at least it can increase the average household by two to three hundred mu.

This kind of wealth, in this era, is definitely a rare condition in the world.

The fact is also true, Pingxi Fort is as rich as their war horses and fat sheep, famous all over the world, even the emperor of Tokyo knows it.

And those who can live in this Fort Pingxi all have backgrounds.

The older generation in the fort, those with senior qualifications can be traced back to the time when Zhang Shengren first established Liangzhou, and those who joined later, that is, the period of the party Xiang Li of the Pingding Jingnan Army, and those who joined later were not eligible to be assigned to Pingxi Fort.

But even though the status of the people in the fort is not low, Chen Laochong is still very proud, because he joined earlier, and because he is from Guazhou, and he was from the Guiyi Army.

His cousin, Chen Sanlang, was also one of the [-] generals of Yuan Cong, but it was a pity that he died of illness in Qunu City when he followed the sage on his expedition to Tianzhu.

And in this castle, apart from their Chen family, the other three surnames are Zhang, Li, and Liu.

In today's Helong area, Zhang from Zhang Zhou, Li from Li Tang, and Liu from the Han Dynasty are very typical surnames.

Whenever they met people with these three surnames in the Helong area, they didn't mention who their grandfather and great-grandfather were.Their family must be Gamo people or directly Tubo, Qiang, Dangxiang, and Tuyuhun clans, which were changed to Han people.

Therefore, Chen Laochong has always been very proud. Their Guasha Chen family is a Miao descendant of Chen in the Southern Dynasty, a standard Han family, and the saint's great-grandmother is a daughter of the Chen family.

So in Fort Pingxi, although everyone is Han Chinese, they are all vaguely headed by the Chen family.

"Master, you are back. The sacrificial activities have been arranged properly, and I am waiting for you to come to host the sacrifice."

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the fort, a servant in green clothes with a dark complexion and a strange accent ran over quickly.

Chen Laochong nodded graciously, and refused the servant's move to help him hold the hard bow and Hulu, and only let the servant take over the fat rabbit he had just beaten.

Because Chen Laochong felt that these servants were not worthy of touching the old buddies he depended on for a living.

The farther you go into Fort Pingxi, the more dark-skinned servants there are, and of course there are not so dark-skinned servants.

These are all Kunlun slaves brought over from Tianzhu by the prince of Xiping County and his son, and they are also very popular.

Well, Li Cunhui and his son are now very powerful. Not only have they established a small territory in Tianzhu, but they also lead the soldiers from the seven prefectures of Batang to the south every year.

Go and plunder some people, and then sell them to the nobles and guard families in the Helong area.

The reason why it was popular was that the people of Dazhou suddenly discovered that these Kunlun slaves from Tianzhu were as obedient as the Kunlun slaves from south of Lingnan, and they were also very hardworking.

Although they are not as good as the Han people in growing crops, they are very smart and can teach them well. After a period of adaptation, they can be similar to the Han people.

What!Is there a Kunlun slave who is very good at farming, hardworking, and timid?

This makes Zhang Zhou and Helong Wuxun very happy. They just lack people to cultivate the land!

If it weren't for Zhang Ting not wanting to let Asan's brother's genes take root in Helong, he specially ordered Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice to formulate regulations to limit the number of Tianzhu Kunlun slaves going to Helong. Hundreds of thousands of people came to the Helong area.

But as soon as the regulations came out, Li Cunhui and his son became even more excited. This is simply the government pushing up prices!

So now, a male Kunlun slave from Tianzhu is more expensive than a bullock, and even a female Kunlun slave is almost as expensive as a bullock.

And they also have their own names. In the current Zhangzhou, only short black men from Lingnan who have undergone strict training and are specially used as servants in the homes of powerful and powerful people can be called Kunlun slaves.

Li Cunhui, father and son, and other honorable ministers brought serfs from Tianzhu and sold them to Helong on the Batang Plateau.

Time flies, and it is now the third year of Qianyuan in the Great Zhou Dynasty, 962 AD.

Don't get me wrong, I, Zhang Shengren, have not died yet, but in the 14th year of Shaoming, 959 AD.

The pioneers who traveled east to find Dongshengshenzhou returned to Dazhou through the water of Canglang (the warm current of the North Equator), and brought with them the Buddhist treasures prophesied by the sages.

This incident caused a great shock to the whole world.

How to put it, the Chinese are actually superstitious, but this kind of superstition is not reflected in the worship of gods and Buddhas, but in the popularity of destiny and prophecy.

It was only two and a half years from the beginning of the great Chu Xing King Chen Sheng to the later Xuantong.

The words of prophecy have always been extremely popular in China, even ordinary people, they must pay attention to doing things to get a good start.

Therefore, Zhang Yu predicted the existence of Dongshengshenzhou and the Four Treasures of Buddhism. From the perspective of people at this time, this was not a prophecy, but a prophecy.

And this thing is often tied to destiny.

In fact, this is also an important reason why Monk Yanshou and Master Cixian became demons just because of Zhang Ting's few words.

Because in their view, Zhang Tie's gamble is too big. If he really loses the bet, not only the Six Dharma School will collapse, but Zhang Zhou's destiny will be widely questioned.

Why did a hero like Zhang Shengren dare to make such a bet? Could it be that he is really omniscient and knows the existence of Dongsheng Shenzhou?Are there really gods and Buddhas?

Under such an extreme impact on their own beliefs and knowledge, Monk Yanshou and Master Cixian resolutely went out to sea to find Dongshengshenzhou with all their efforts.

And when Master Cixian's disciple, Monk Fayan, went through all kinds of hardships and returned by the water of the Canglang (the warm current of the North Equator), the whole world went crazy.

It turns out that all this is true!
The huge shock caused by the return of the Fayan monk spread to all the territories that the Great Zhou could affect.

In the face of this huge shock beyond cognition, the wealthy families in the south of the Yangtze River, the rich families in the two lakes, the land tigers in the three provinces in the south of the Lingnan, the barbarians in the Xianbei Mountains, the north of the Beihai, the middle of Guizhou, and the Chu Fan.

They all gave up the idea of ​​secretly confronting the court and the new Da Zhou, and some even took the initiative to confess and be lenient.

Because for them, all of this was too shocking. It was the first time that the destiny appeared so clearly. The Great Zhou, which was so favored by the heavens, was something no mortal could resist.

At the same time, it is even more exaggerated in the religious world, it is completely a dimensionality reduction blow, the god of the world!

How terrifying this is. No matter how extravagant you talk about or how subtle the scriptures are, can any sect compare to the existence of gods in this world?
However, fortunately, Zhang Yu's mind is still clear, although now he can rely on his status as a living god to accomplish some feats that cannot be accomplished by secular emperors, and he can even enslave all the people of the country as if they were servants of gods.

But if you do this, it may not even be beneficial in the present, and it will definitely be harmful to the future.

Therefore, when Monk Fayan returned to the Central Plains and brought back corn, sweet potatoes, peanuts, tomatoes, peppers and other species, the monks of the Six Fazongs tried their best to encourage Zhang Ting to really push Zhang Ting to the altar, Zhang Ting with great efforts Perseverance refused.

He personally arrived at Mingzhou Port in the Jiangnan Province, boarded the boat to identify the various grains and plants brought back, and ordered people to throw all the unknown ones into the fire, and popularized the dangers of species invasion to everyone. .

Then Zhang Shengren summoned the world's sect leaders and learned people from all over the world at Jin'e Temple in Mingzhou to personally explain to them the theory of the round sky and the earth.

Dafang admitted that his prophecy about Dongshengshenzhou was derived from his understanding of the round sky and the earth.

Regarding how he knew that Dongshengshenzhou must have high-yielding crops, Zhang Ting smiled lightly.

"The land is vast and not connected to Shenzhou. There must be food that can survive. I just said the general appearance. Dongshengshenzhou is so big that you can always find similar things, such as peanuts, peppers, and orange melons (pumpkins). It’s not right.”

In the end, Zhang Tie further predicted that he would name the land around him the Earth. If he started from Mingzhou Port and headed eastward, he would definitely be able to return to Mingzhou Port in the end.

He also made a promise that, regardless of military, civilian, farmer, businessman, as long as someone can verify his idea, he will be a Marquis and reward a silver mine in Iwami County.

As soon as this remark came out, there was a burst of cheers. The Confucian scholars present immediately praised the emperor for being born with knowledge, learning about heaven and man, comparable to the ancient sages, and even said that the emperor could stand shoulder to shoulder with Yandi Shennong.

Zen and other Buddhist sects boast that the emperor is indeed the guardian and asylum of Buddhism under the Buddha, and only after receiving the enlightenment of the Buddha can he have such vision and knowledge.

The Daoists boasted that Emperor Zhang was the source of the aura of heaven and earth, and he had a great opportunity, so he could be transformed into heaven and earth, and have a glimpse of the avenue between heaven and earth.

Generally speaking, Emperor Zhang, you can be any god you want to be. As long as you don't become a god in this world, it is the greatest kindness to them, and they are willing to do anything.

Soon, with everyone's concerted efforts, the emperor who could have ascended the altar directly, with his own insistence, ascended the altar gracefully, and then walked down gracefully.

Everyone is satisfied, except for a vote of great virtues from the Six Dharma Schools.

Zhang Ting's current explanation has many flaws and cannot be justified.

Although he used a large number of ancient books of sages and even the classics of mountains and seas to testify, there are still many aspects that cannot be explained at all, at least the annals of vegetation and people in Dongshengshenzhou that he passed on to Zhao Yihu and Zhao Hutou cannot be explained.

Monk Fayan paid homage to Zhang Tie on the spot. He naturally believed that the emperor was the supreme god and the true god and Buddha.

After the worship, the monk Fayan whispered to the precepts and virtues of the Six Dharma Sects beside him:

"Supreme Heaven has a big heart, and he doesn't want us mortals to have only the seeds of worship in their hearts.

The Supreme Heaven does not want to enslave all living beings, but hopes that they can truly be safe and happy. Only the true Buddha can have such a heart. "

The great virtue of precepts nodded slowly, "This is the great mercy of the supreme heaven, but we mortals have to be aware of it, and we can't let the benevolence of the supreme heaven be ignored by all living beings."

However, Du Xing, who was not far from the Dharma Master, hesitated for a moment. He opened his mouth slowly, and after thinking for a while, he still didn't speak, but shook his head slightly.

He felt that the great virtue of precepts completely ignored the intention of the Supreme Heaven to popularize the original knowledge of the world to the monks of the Six Dharma Schools and encourage the monks of the Six Dharma Schools to explore the world.

Blindly advocating miracles, how can it be more important to explore this world and solve one puzzle after another?
Brother, this is going astray!
And this year, the year when Monk Fayan came back happened to be December, so Zhang Ting took this opportunity to announce that the year would be changed to the Yuan Dynasty in the second year, with the year name Qianyuan, and 960 AD as the first year of Qianyuan in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

However, for Chen Laochong, he has no idea that he lives on the earth.

He didn't know that in order to prove that the earth was round, many people had already started various preparations, but he knew that the saint in the palace was the Buddha.

In addition to the powerful Six Dharma Sect in the Helong area, which blocked almost all other religions, the other was the shock brought to Chen Laochong by corn, sweet potatoes, and orange melons.

In fact, the crop seeds that Monk Fayan brought back were not many. Due to the loss of many ships on the way, the total brought back was about ten tons.

That sounds like a lot, but it's not a lot for so many species to start forming systems and integrating into the local ecology in another completely unfamiliar place.

Now, although I have figured out the route to Dongshengshenzhou, the cost of each departure is still very high, and it will take more than half a year to go and come.

Therefore, in order to make rational use of these seeds, most of them were transported to the Helong area, except for some that were planted on a small scale in Jiangnan Province.

Here, there are no powerful folks making trouble, no officials dare to deceive others, and everyone will be moved by Zhang Shengren's words.

More importantly, thanks to Zhang Tie's original agronomy doctor strategy in the Helong area, the cultivation level in the Helong area was extremely advanced at this time, much higher than Zhili, Hebei, Jiangnan and other provinces.

"Yeah, great harvest, great harvest!"

Chen Laochong had just walked in front of the temple in Xiping Fort. His three sons, who had been practicing martial arts diligently since the day they were born, surrounded him directly under the leadership of the third son.

The third son held a huge corn cob in his hand, and smiled happily, "Yeah, this corn is good. It can be planted on slopes. This year's most productive land in Cross River has produced a full [-] catties of grain."

"Okay, okay!" Chen Laochong smiled happily after taking the big corn on the cob.

Although a yield of more than 700 catties per mu can be regarded as auspicious, which is not common, but a yield of more than 500 catties per mu is still guaranteed.

Before that, most of the fields in the Helong area could only produce [-] to [-] catties per mu, which was less than half of what it is now. Thinking about it, you can see how much wealth this has brought.

"Brother Chen, let's set up the sacrifices and so on, and wait for you to get started." The head of the Liu family came up to remind him respectfully.

Don't think that this person is lowering his status a bit. You must know that Chen Laochong is not a bug of bugs, but a bug of eye-catching white-fronted bugs.

Chen Laochong was outside Luoyang City 25 years ago, but he was a pervert who could wear three layers of armor and fight fiercely for four hours without losing his strength.

It can't be called a peerless murderer, but it is quite common to kill a lot of people in a fit of anger.

The one who will be sacrificed today is Chen Laochong's cousin, that is, Chen Sanlang, who is ranked No. 70 and No. [-] in Zhang Shengren's one hundred and eight yuan.
The statue of Chen Sanlang is in the left hall of the temple, and it appears in the face of a guardian vajra. Looking at the statue of his cousin, Chen Laochong burst into tears, kneeling and chatting in front of the statue of his cousin.

Every year on his cousin's memorial day, Chen Laochong would cry, because without the sacrifice of his cousin Chen Sanlang, Chen Laochong would not be where he is today.

Weeping, chattering.

The leaders of Zhang, Li, and Liu's families, and Chen Laochong's sons came to persuade him. After a while, Chen Laochong stood up wiping his tears.

Then he began to personally peel the fat gray rabbit that came from hunting, take out the internal organs, smear the sauce, and start grilling directly.

Um, killing and grilling directly in the temple.

No problem!My Six Dharma School is so wild.

Under normal circumstances, it is definitely not possible to do this, but in the case of paying homage to ancestors, killing enemies, etc., it can be done in temples according to the ritual.

That is to say, with the approval of the Six Dharma Sects, in the small temple built by oneself, one can personally make sacrifices to pay homage to the ancestors, and one can also draw the mortal enemies to such a disembowelment.The end is extremely brutal.

After a while, a roasted and burnt rabbit was ready. Chen Laochong took the roasted rabbit and stared at the people in the fort majestically, and then invited the county lieutenant sent by the imperial court to Xiping Fort.

The county lieutenant chopped the roasted rabbit into dozens of pieces in front of everyone. Whenever he read a person's name, he could come up and take a piece of rabbit meat.

Although it was a rabbit, the ceremony was very solemn. The person who was assigned was as red as drinking alcohol, and walked in a floating way.

As for the ones who didn't get the rabbit meat, except for some who were completely flattened by the competition, all of them were pale, as if mourning.

After the county lieutenant finished dividing the meat, he suddenly waved his hand, and a roll of silk cloth with yellow surrounding and white in the middle appeared in his hand.

It turned out that the county lieutenant came back today not only to preside over the ceremony of offering sacrifices to Chen Sanlang, but the emperor issued a call-up order.

"The great emperor who bears the fate of heaven, has an edict!"

boom!Hearing the emperor's edict, everyone knelt on one knee, and the scene was completely silent.

"Adud Daolai, the minister of the tyrant in black, has occupied the territory of our vassal Samantha for many years, and now he is instigating people from Anxi, Kangju, Mulu, Micheng and other places to attack and kill imperial officials and plunder the imperial assets.

Tolerable or unbearable!
The second son, Anguo King Xianyu, the fifth son Song Dynasty King Xianxi, and the tenth Shu Kingdom King Xiantai gathered troops to fight against him. The Chen, Zhang, Liu, and Li families of Xipingbao had forty elite riders to go together. "

"It's finally the day when the children study hard and practice hard, and it will finally be useful."

Chen Laochong raised his head to the sky and screamed, and then looked at his three sons with excitement, "Go and offer a stick of incense to your uncle, and let him bless you to make great achievements in the river."

The three sons were also very excited, and the fourth son even laughed and said: "Yeah, the elder brother and the second elder brother serve as elders, we younger brothers don't have to worry about it, my son will fight the enemy bravely, and I will not fall into the glory of my Chen family." .

If something goes wrong, Yeye will stand beside the uncle and set up a statue of the child holding a knife, so that our uncle and nephew can meet in the Paradise of Paradise. "
