Daqin arrests alchemists, what does it matter to me as a qi refiner?

Chapter 225 Zhuge Liang’s ending, a historical mystery!

At that time, many people criticized Zhuge Liang, thinking that he had betrayed Liu Bei's trust.

Even Liu Bei once said to Zhuge Liang that if Liu Chan couldn't be used, he could use Shu Han for himself.

You can say this as a monarch, but it doesn't mean you can really do this as a minister.

Some people even say privately that Zhuge Liang is the next Cao Cao.

Rumors did not hinder him, Zhuge Liang conquered the world like a broken bamboo.

Liu Chan also trusted Zhuge Liang very much. Anyway, he only needed to eat, drink and have fun, and he didn't need to worry about too many things at all.

To put it bluntly, in front of Zhuge Liang, Liu Chan is an emotionless official seal machine.

Five years later, in 230 AD, after a hundred years of chaos, the world finally returned to unity.

At the same time, Zhuge Liang carefully taught Liu Chan's son, and finally gave Shu Han a decent and wise king.

Historically known as Han Dezong.

Under the leadership of Han Dezong, the Later Han Dynasty gradually got on the right track, and Liu Chan also wisely abdicated and became the Supreme Emperor, ignoring the government affairs.

Zhuge Liang also gradually returned power to Han Dezong.

Until this time, Zhuge Liang's reputation gradually improved, and he was even praised by people all over the world for a time!

It turns out that he did not want to usurp the throne, but just wanted to cultivate a wise king for the later Han Dynasty!

At the same time, what puzzles the world is that in his later years, Zhuge Liang actually presided over the construction of a temple about Shennong on the ancient battlefield of the Battle of Chibi.

The statues in the temple were carved from jade by Zhuge Liang himself. At first glance, they looked just like real people.

The statue has a benevolent eyebrow. Even people who don't know who the statue is will have a strange feeling when they see the statue.

It seems that as soon as I see this statue, I know who brought the rumored corn, sweet potatoes and potatoes.

Later historians have different opinions on this period of history, which is full of mist.

Who brought the seeds of crops that originated in America to Zhuge Liang?

According to archaeological discoveries, there were no such high-yielding crop seeds in the world at the same time.

Even corn, sweet potatoes and potatoes in the Americas at this time were not fully domesticated and were basically difficult to apply to agriculture.

But the seeds of these crops in China seem to have been selected for millions of years, and they have become stable, high-yield, cold- and drought-resistant grain seeds.

According to genetic sequencing, it seems that these crops have been screened tens of thousands of times in just a few hundred years in the Three Kingdoms.

No one wants to believe what the immortals say. Historians prefer that there are more unknown stories behind history.

As one of the biggest questions in history, this question has troubled countless historians in later generations for thousands of years!

The one that historians talk about the most is Zhuge Liang himself.

Not only because of Zhuge Liang's legendary experience, but also because he was the first person to bring high-yielding crops such as corn, sweet potatoes and potatoes to China.

No matter when these seeds first appeared in China, there is no doubt that Zhuge Liang must have played a great role in promoting them.

What people want to know even more is why Zhuge Liang became an extremely steadfast theologian in his later years.

Because after the supported Han Dezong came to power and gradually transferred his power to Han Dezong, Zhuge Liang no longer cared about government affairs, but began to concentrate on the study of theology.

At first, people thought that the immortal who imparted the seeds was just a story made up by Zhuge Liang to win the trust of the people in the world.

But when people knew what Zhuge Liang did in his later years, they were shocked.

Because Zhuge Liang has been devoting himself to studying various Taoist classics in his later years, and even once promoted his "made-up" immortals to the supreme position.

In his later years, Zhuge Liang built statues and temples for Qin Tian across the country, and even searched for traces of Qin Tian's appearance across the country.

In the end, Zhuge Liang came to a surprising conclusion-since the pre-Qin Dynasty, the Qin Immortal has been active in the land of China.

In this regard, later generations thought that this was just because Zhuge Liang became insane in his later years and believed so strongly in the immortals he made up that he began to make things far-fetched.

Otherwise, how could such a thing be real?

Do you want people to believe that there really was such a person who lived for hundreds of years from the Pre-Qin period to the Later Han period?

This person even brought high-yielding grain seeds to Zhuge Liang.

This is simply a fantasy!

But while Zhuge Liang promoted his belief in the legendary immortal, he was unambiguous in his political actions, handing over his power and clearing all obstacles for the new king to ascend the throne.

For such a sober person, it would be difficult to explain why he suffered from mental disorder in his later years.

Therefore, figuring out what Zhuge Liang was thinking in his later years has become a major hobby of historians, and it has supported countless street stall literature and marketing accounts in later generations.

Whether or not the legendary immortal existed has become a long-lasting topic that people in later generations talk about.

……

Chibi.

After handing over all the rights in his hands, Zhuge Liang declined all fame and fortune, took only three old servants, and opened a farmland beside Red Cliff, enjoying himself.

His wife died of illness early, and his sons also had their own official titles in Shuhan.

Every year during the Chinese New Year, his son would come to visit him and bring him some daily necessities.

In addition, Zhuge Liang's life is simply simple. From a distance, he looks no different from an ordinary farmer.

In the early years, when he still had energy, he would take his servants to explore mountains and rivers in order to find traces of Qin Tian.

Later, when Zhuge Liang got older, his legs and feet were inconvenient, so he stopped going out and concentrated on studying classics at home.

Zhuge Liang said that delegating power means really delegating power, and he no longer misses the power in his hands at all.

While Zhuge Liang was farming in Chibi, a major event occurred in the Shu Han Dynasty regarding the establishment of a prince.

Emperor Dezong of the Han Dynasty could not make up his mind and sent someone to ask Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang said, "I'm just a villager in the mountains. Why does your Majesty come to ask me about such a big matter? It's better for Your Majesty to make your own decision."

He said he came to ask Zhuge Liang, but in fact it was more of a test of Zhuge Liang.

To put it bluntly, Han Dezong was not worried about having a person like Zhuge Liang in the countryside.

Zhuge Liang has been running the court for so many years, who knows what the people below are thinking?

The matter of establishing the crown prince is more like Emperor Dezong of the Han Dynasty coming to test whether Zhuge Liang has any intention of coming back.

And Zhuge Liang also expressed his attitude very firmly, not knowing that it is irrelevant not to discuss it.

No matter how you mess with it, the world is settled now, and he no longer has to worry about the people being in dire straits.

Sure enough, after Zhuge Liang gave his answer, the dispute over the establishment of the crown prince, which had been known to everyone and almost led to chaos in the world, was calmed down in just a few months.

All this is just a trial.

Perhaps sensing that his end was approaching, Zhuge Liang gave his servants a sum of money, sent them home, and then sent a letter to his children in the capital.

This man who was worried about the Han Dynasty finally closed his eyes at the age of seventy-seven.

"This……"

Zhuge Liang felt as if he was floating in the air, and everything in front of him felt very strange.

His body was no longer sluggish, and he seemed to have returned to the Mr. Wolong he was when he was young.

The way we view the world also seems to have changed.

It's as if there are more than a dozen extra organs for perceiving the world all over the body. This feeling is actually extremely wonderful.

"In the end what happened?"

Zhuge Liang was quite puzzled. When he turned his head, he saw himself on the bed. "Am I... already dead?"

"No, you're not dead yet."

Qin Tian's voice came, and Zhuge Liang realized that Qin Tian had appeared in front of him without knowing when.

"Kong Ming, I have seen..."

Seeing Qin Tian, ​​Zhuge Liang bowed deeply, but he had trouble naming him. For a moment, he didn't know what to call Qin Tian.

"It doesn't matter, just like when we first met fifty years ago, just call me Brother Qin."

Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, but without hesitation, he nodded slightly: "Then Liang will be bold and call you Brother Qin."

After saying that, Zhuge Liang looked at Qin Tian carefully and felt emotional.

"Brother Qin is really the same as he was fifty years ago, with almost no changes!"

"Time..."

Qin Tian looked at the old man with white hair under Zhuge Liang and was filled with emotion.

"Time is really a ruthless thing, taking away everything..."

Zhuge Liang also saw the two disciples behind Qin Tian.

Because he was in a very strange state at this time, he could vaguely feel the true identities of Muchun and Lingxia.

"That's it, that's it..."

Zhuge Liang suddenly realized: "It turns out that that night fifty years ago, what I saw was actually Brother Qin's disciple!"

Qin Tian was a little surprised: "I thought it was..."

Qin Tian suddenly said: "Did you think it was me you saw?"

After saying that, Qin Tian couldn't help laughing.

"This..." Zhuge Liang was a little embarrassed: "I always thought that Brother Qin was an immortal from heaven who came down to earth, so..."

Zhuge Liang immediately understood that he had made a big mistake.

Because all the propaganda he made to the outside world in his later years was that Qin Tian was a white dragon descending from the earth and coming to save the people.

Therefore, the statues he erected for Qin Tian were mostly made of jade, because jade is naturally white.

Among the various folk worships about Qin Tian, ​​white is also an indispensable color.

But later Qin Tian changed into green clothes, so there was a lot of white mixed in with the white.

"It doesn't matter, there's not much difference."

Qin Tian was a little curious: "Why have you been trying to put all the credit on me in your later years?"

"The credit does not belong to me, so I don't dare to be greedy for credit." Zhuge Liang said with a wry smile.

Then he looked at Qin Tian cautiously: "Brother Qin, is there something..."

Qin Tian waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care.

"It's okay, I'm just a little curious."

"Although I gave the seeds to you, without your promotion, I'm afraid these seeds would not be able to benefit people all over the world."

"In the end, all the credit still belongs to you."

Zhuge Liang shook his head repeatedly: "I dare not take credit. It's a pity that the world is so ignorant that almost no one wants to believe what I say."

Zhuge Liang also felt helpless about this.

Because in the process of promoting Qin Tian, ​​Zhuge Liang soon discovered that his statues would be placed next to Qin Tian in many places.

In some places, his status is even higher than Qin Tian's.

Because ordinary people will not believe what Zhuge Liang said about immortals, they will only think that this is Zhuge Liang's excuse.

They can only see that Zhuge Liang brought these seeds to them.

Therefore, countless people have transferred their faith to Zhuge Liang.

Speaking of this, Qin Tiancai suddenly discovered that Zhuge Liang actually contained an amazing power of faith.

The power of faith is a mysterious and mysterious thing.

This kind of thing can be produced in everything, even a stone can produce the power of faith.

Qin Tian prefers to call it the power of emotion.

The power of emotions is scattered and haphazard, with almost no room for use, because the amount is too small and too messy.

But when these desires and requests are directed toward a clear goal, the power of faith appears.

This is a power that is almost unique to humans.

Because beasts do not have their own thinking, it is difficult to generate the corresponding power of faith.

Therefore, the more humans there are in the world and the deeper their belief in heaven and earth, the faster the evolution of heaven and earth.

But things like population are not subject to individual will.

Even if Qin Tian has great abilities, he cannot make the world's population grow rapidly.

Moreover, even if the population increases, it may not all have a positive effect on the evolution of the way of heaven.

Therefore, this personal intervention in historical changes is actually due to two reasons.

Firstly, it was because he was really moved by Zhuge Liang and wanted to do something for this land. Secondly, it was also for experimental purposes to see what kind of impact this would have on the way of heaven.

Of course, the results of this impact will not be clearly visible until decades or even hundreds of thousands of years later.

As for the current changes in Zhuge Liang, they far exceeded Qin Tian's expectations.

Just before Qin Tian's eyes, Zhuge Liang was surrounded by a layer of golden light.

It only took Qin Tian a few breaths to understand what happened.

There is only one reason. Zhuge Liang's reputation among the people is simply too high.

Zhuge Liang can be said to be omnipotent. He almost single-handedly improved the political structure of the Shu Han Dynasty.

The most important thing is that Zhuge Liang coordinated the strategy and not only pacified the world, but also managed the logistics perfectly.

Years of war have not only not made the people's lives worse, but have become more and more prosperous.

In this regard, Zhuge Liang would say that this is actually all due to the seeds brought by Qin Tian, ​​and he just pushed it.

Even without him, these seeds will be promoted among the people sooner or later.

But the immortals mentioned by Zhuge Liang are illusory things after all, while he himself can be seen and touched.

Therefore, most of the beliefs about Qin Tian flowed to Zhuge Liang.

Some places even don't believe in Qin Tian at all. They only believe in Zhuge Liang who personally brought them the seeds!

Naturally, there are other situations, but I won’t go into details one by one.
