History of the Great Zhou Dynasty

Chapter 227 Yun Gao·Intangible

The wind gathers spirits.

Speak to all things.

Lake...

A voice of doubt.

What is Huze?

The spirit of this place does not know the lake.

After Feng Yun settled him in the Fengze state, thousands of people worked, wild animals drank the water and played, insect eggs were destroyed by the water, and the vegetation multiplied with the water, informing all the spirits with illusions.

Listen again.

The surrounding mountains were ringing.

The so-called mountain gods really exist.

But they exist according to the way of heaven and conform to the way of heaven, not the way of humanity.

As the sea changes, these mountains naturally know the lakes.

For Feng Yun's wish, it is natural to sacrifice some rocks in exchange for a prosperous mountain.

The way of heaven is selfless, just for the sake of the way.

Then, everything is allowed.

But relying only on this scattered strength is not as good as Feng Yun's ability to borrow the power of Huangshan.

If you want to open mountains and fill gaps and divert water to create lakes, you need more momentum.

What's the potential?

The power of unity!

"In Da Ting, in Yu Yue, in Bai Yue, and in Chu Shi, we can see the hearts and efforts of thousands of people working together."

"But when I was in the Chu State, I saw the hexagrams in the Book of Changes, Xia Kun and Shang Kan. Only then can we integrate them at this time, so as to form a concentric trend and follow the trend to unify."

"Comparison of hexagrams and the art of following the trend to unify!"

"Boom!"

The thunder was louder, the lightning flashed, and the dazzling light reflected on the face of the mountain wind.

He squeezed the book "The Kingdoms: Baiyue" in his hand and stared at Feng Yun holding the green branch high. Compared with his own strength, he realized how small he was.

The book in hand records the source of Feng Yun's power, which is very important.

And this technique is not so easy to perform.

The world seemed to be shaking in Feng Yun's eyes, but time was passing by unconsciously.

"flood…"

At some point, the sound of water pouring in broke into Feng Yun's ears.

In the distance, there were a few gurgling streams, and a lot of water splashed out.

Water flows into this vast mountainous area.

The water gathered with the general trend and spread in this mountainous area chosen by Feng Yun.

But between the Yelang Mountains, under the shallow soil, there are mountains. There are gaps in the mountains and water cannot be stored.

For this reason, we can only——

"Pe Gua, lower Kun and upper Gen, is for the compactness of the mountains and the shaking of the mountains and the earth."

"Now the mountains and the earth are originally separated, but they shake the mountains and the earth just to close the gaps."

"Boom!" Qingzhi tapped the ground.

The mountains were trembling like an earth dragon turning over.

With the promise of the surrounding mountains, this technique is quite fast.

Shanfeng clung to Kyuubi and watched numbly as the ground around him continued to rise and fall, then became stable again quickly.

The ground sank three feet, and the water outlet in the distance was buried by collapsed rocks.

In this way, the flowing water can also be trapped, so that it will not seep into the gaps in the mountains or flow away quietly.

"Let's go, I'll take you to dig mountains and divert water."

Feng Yun turned over, rode Jiuwei, and stretched out his hand to pull Shanfeng up.

Kyuubi leaps.

There was thunder in the sky.

Looking for water vapor, Feng Yun looked for those mountain streams.

At this time, the ax representing "The Kingdoms and Baiyue" appeared in his hand.

Feng Yun once used this to open up mountains and release the evil wind from Feng Ze.

At this time, we are also preparing to use this ax to open mountains and divert water, and collect water to form lakes.

"When I was in the Chu State, I read less about the Zhou Yi and more about the national conditions of the Chu State. However, in the Chu State, there were very few people who took the "Book of Changes" as their guide, and their books were only a few articles."

"But it's much more than in the big court."

"There is also a hexagram in it, the explanation of the name, which is about thunder falling on the water, extremely still and moving, just like the frozen river, thunder in spring breaks the seal and opens the way."

"Things cannot always be difficult, so they can be solved by accepting them. There are no glaciers in the night, and mountains block the way."

"Today, we will use the power of thunder to open up the mountain and solve the problem of no way."

Draw thunder.

Back then, Ou Ye was also able to draw thunder and enlighten his spirituality when forging swords.

Now Feng Yun is causing thunder to open mountains.

"Jie Gua·Break the seal and open the way!"

Thunder roared.

Following Feng Yun's axe, he came out.

An ax light flew vertically, followed by thunder and lightning.

"boom!"

"Oh!"

Lightning strikes the mountain peaks and splits them apart.

The water on the other side of the mountain also slowly flows along this road.

Driving six mountains in a row, traveling day and night, with the protection of Xuan Qi, Feng Yun had to rest frequently. The pancakes and dried meat had been eaten long ago, and now he could only eat wild fruits and drink spring water, which was enough.

And look at the mighty water from these six mountains, rushing into this place.

I don’t feel tired either.

"Tick tock..."

The heavy rain is coming again, which seems to help it.

Feng Yun rides the white fox, and behind him is a lake that is still expanding. I am afraid that it will not be long before this place becomes a lake where the entire Yelang family can thrive.

"If the water flow in and out becomes calmer, this is also a lake with a radius of ten miles."

The lake with a radius of twenty miles coexists water and land, nourishing all living things.

Although it is not as good as the Baiyue Kingdom in Fengze, which is a large swamp with a radius of hundreds of miles.

But the waters here are enough to provide enough food for millions of people to survive.

As a result, the cultivated land left in the gentler areas to the west can be irrigated even if the wind allows it.

"Just by digging canals to divert water, this barren land can be irrigated. After ten years of nurturing the soil, it can become fertile soil."

It rained heavily.

Jiuwei raised his long fox tail and waved his mysterious energy to protect Feng Yun and the mountain wind from the rain.

Feng Yun looked tired.

This time I walked day and night, entering the Tao in a trance.

Comprehending the four hexagrams of "The Book of Changes" in a row opened up a lake, but it was also amazing.

It's just pity for Shanfeng, who follows Feng Yun all the way, and can only use "Countries·Baiyue" as his companion every day to understand his own unique way.

"Feng Yun, you really created a big lake for Yelang." The voice of the mountain breeze was clear and cold, but like the lake that had gradually become peaceful, the clear waves moved slightly and seemed emotionless.

But the shock implicit in it is self-evident.

"It's a lake. The real Daze is wider than it."

"Wider?" The mountain breeze looked at the continuous mountains, hundreds of large and small, and the undulating water. It could swallow dozens of mountains.

"Is it Fengze?"

"How much bigger is Fengze than this lake?"

Shanfeng asked, and for the first time he knew what Huze was, instead of what it was described in the book, it didn't have a concrete appearance.

"How big is Fengze..."

Feng Yun thought.

"If you take the edge as the radius, the difference between the lake and the scenery here is more than ten times."

"The area occupied is more than a hundred times different."

"A hundred times..." Shanfeng was silent. It turned out that this was the real Daze.

So what kind of momentum did Feng Yun use to govern Fengze?

"Is Huangshan also very big? How about compared with Yelang?"

"Why do you want to compete?" Feng Yun asked Shanfeng. When he saw the blood-red maple leaves falling and falling on his head, Feng Yun frowned slightly.

"It's autumn..."

He had no idea about the creation of this lake and the time shuttle.

"Mountain breeze, there is no need to compare, as long as you agree with it and be satisfied."

Touch Shanfeng's head and stroke away the maple leaves.

Shanfeng nodded.

"Feng Yun, I've finished reading the book. Do you have any more?"

The mountain breeze smiled brightly and plainly.

""The Kingdoms of Chu", this is the book I am still writing."

As soon as the green branches moved, Feng Yun took back "The Kingdoms of Baiyue" and gave the part of the Chu Kingdom to Shan Feng.

"I can only show it to you once. If you forget, you can study it in Andi. I have a copy there."

Shanfeng's eyes moved slightly.

"I... know." Although he didn't know where An Di was, he knew that Feng Yun was not going to take him with him.

"Did I learn too quickly?"

Hearing this, Feng Yun nodded lightly.

"Your life will be wonderful."

"Hmm..." Shanfeng was annoyed.

Feng Yun was helpless. He recognized that Shanfeng's talent was so suitable for Xuan Dao.

But for this reason, after pouring out all he has written, he should not be constrained by Shanfeng.

Change the subject.

Feng Yun looked at the lake and said, "What kind of name should I give it?"

"I'm not stingy about this right, but I also hope it has a name of its own, rather than being named for swearing." Shanfeng bowed his head.

At this time the heavy rain gradually subsided.

In the sky, a beam of autumn sun penetrated the clouds and hit them in front of them.

The maple leaf was reflected blood red.

"Red maple."

"There are maple leaves all around here. He was born during the red maple season in autumn. Isn't it nice to be named after this." Shanfeng spoke in a low voice.

Feng Yun nodded in response and looked at him kindly.

Shanfeng touched Kyuubi's fur and whispered: "I also chose the name Shanfeng myself."

"Why?" Feng Yun asked.

The mountain breeze said softly: "Because only the mountain breeze can travel through the mountains and fields, and go where you want to go freely. Even if the mountains are blocking you, you can cross it."

Feng Yun said softly: "The clouds in the sky can clearly see the road ahead. Isn't it easier to go where you want to go?"

Shanfeng raised his head and looked up at Feng Yun, his eyes moist: "It's too high, the clouds are too high. I can't touch them standing in the mountain. I don't know if it likes me."

Feng Yun was slightly stunned.

"I don't know either, I'm sorry, Shanfeng."

The mountain breeze bows its head.

"Okay, then I'll find out by myself, and I'll tell you when the time comes, Feng Yun." As he said that, he turned around and looked at the clouds high in the sky, his eyes wet.

"There is someone, Feng Yun."

Condensing the emotions in his eyes, Shanfeng looked at a group of armored soldiers coming from the direction of Yelang Sashu City in the distance.

Armored soldiers guard them, and wild beasts serve as riders.

That flag.

It’s the king of scolding!

"Oh my god, did this really create a lake?"

King Shashu and the other kings were stunned, stunned on the spot, and stared at each other in bewilderment.

Feng Yun may not know the noise he made in this land of red maples.

Floods roar, earth dragons turn over, thunder splits mountains...

Anyone who wants to get close to Yelang is worried that the gods are angry.

It wasn't until King Yelang returned from the expedition with a group of tribal kings who had surrendered to him that he hurriedly informed him.

King Sacu and his soldiers in the city had no time to rest, so they left the injured and hurriedly came to see them.

But I saw the current scene.

A lake just appeared in this place full of mountains.

Hu Ze…

It is so big that Yelang people have never seen it before.

They were in a trance when they saw the Nine Tails on the mountain and under the red maple tree.

"This is the real sacrifice to the great witch..."

Sacrifice, Yelang's witch, the man who can connect heaven and earth.

However, Yelang Sacu's sacrifice was killed by King Sacu. The reason was that during drought, the sacrifice could not summon rain.

In comparison, Feng Yun could bring a lake to Yelang in two months to meet the survival needs of millions of creatures. How could he not be a great witch in their eyes?

When the kings of each tribe looked at Feng Yun, they all had inexplicable awe in their eyes.

There was a lot of discussion...

This is Yelang's belief - miracles.

The sacrificial shaman is the person who communicates with the gods.

Different from the ancestral culture of Baiyue, in Yelang, people have more respect for the power of nature.

The scolding king's eyes brightened slightly.

Sacrifices and kings do not conflict in Yelang.

It wouldn't be a good thing if a great witch who could create lakes and lakes could be kept in Yelang. This would make him even more wise and powerful in scolding the king.

Be favored by the gods!

At this time, I saw——

"Fengzi!"

Manwa rode a big black bear across the shallow depressions of the lake and rushed towards Feng Yun.

"Man, I have been waiting for a long time, and you are finally done. This is a letter from Mr. Chu to you."

Manwa handed the letter to Feng Yun.

All his words were generous to Yelang for sending troops.

As long as the soldiers of the mediocre country can be driven back, what about these small amounts of food and the statues of thousands of gold.

Behind Manwa, there was also a neatly dressed but faintly tired craftsman.

"I paid homage to Fengzi, and following the order of Lord Chu, I followed Fengzi to trace and cast the portrait of King Yelang."

Feng Yun nodded.

Just as he was about to talk, he saw Yelang scolding the king and bringing the kings of various tribes to this mountain.

"Fengzi!"

"Ha ha…"

"You really created such a lake..."

Really at a loss, Wang Lu was speechless and could only look at Huze. When facing Feng Yun, he was already embarrassed.

The kings of other tribes are even more clumsy.

Feng Yunxiang opened his mouth and said: "King Shashu, Lord Chu has agreed to the reward Yelang needs, and Yun has also brought Huze to Yelang."

"Look..."

Feng Yun points to the distance, which is vast and has undulating hills, but it can be regarded as an open land that Yelang rarely sees.

"By opening canals to divert water, tens of thousands of acres of paddy fields can be cultivated easily."

Tens of thousands acres of paddy fields?

King Shashu didn't understand this, but when he heard the number, he knew it was huge.

"Okay, okay, Fengzi is indeed capable. Let's organize the army and set off to Yong soon."

The autumn wind has arrived, and the autumn harvest is coming.

This was the plan of King Sa Ku, so naturally he would not tell Feng Yun that he was planning to invade Yong Country, instead of just telling him to be vigilant and withdraw his troops as he said before.

"Thank you very much, King Sashu."

Feng Yun handed Chu Jun's silk letter to King Sacu.

The greedy look in King Sacu's eyes was endless. After being translated by someone who knew the Chu text, he smiled with great joy and immediately put it away. The other kings thought about it and could only wait until King Sacu was full before talking.

"Three days later, I, Yelang's tribes, will send an army of 60,000 from Chu to conquer the Yong Kingdom!"

Just to curse, of course, there is no 50,000-strong army. 40,000 of them is already the limit of standing troops, and 10,000 are left to defend the surrounding areas.

The remaining 20,000 are the rest of Yelang's tribal troops who have joined and cursed.

fifty thousand?

After hearing this, Feng Yun frowned slightly.

The so-called great country is a country of thousands of chariots.

The standing army amounts to 330 troops, about 30,000 people.

In times of war, the number can be doubled, for a total of about 60,000 people.

In the war to destroy the country, the army can be doubled to a thousand troops, for a total of about 100,000 troops.

This country can be called a big country because it can always have 40,000 troops.

In addition to the surrounding dependent countries, the standing army, although scattered, may reach 80,000.

At this time, fifty thousand troops were sent to deal with Yongguo.

Although the state of Yong is large, it only has 60,000 troops standing on standby. At this time, 30,000 troops were sent to Chu.

Is King Yelang going to attack Yongguo?

Feng Yun remained silent.

The battle to defend the city.

Thirty thousand versus fifty thousand, and the Yi Dao is not far from the Yong Kingdom, so it is impossible to fight.

The Yong Kingdom is not a lax tribe.

"Is King Yelang preparing to attack Yongguo?"

King Yelang was stunned when he heard the sound.

"Hey, why did Fengzi say that..."

Yelang glanced towards the lake and swamp, and laughed and said: "With this lake and swamp, let's just grab some food."

Fighting the autumn breeze?

Feng Yun nodded.

This Yelang Wang doesn't look stupid at all.

"Then I wish King Sacu a success. When he hears that Yelang is in danger, Lord Chu will naturally send out chariots and horses to enter Yelang."

"And the statue of ten thousand gold will not be completed in the future."

Pointing at the painter, he introduced it to King Saku.

The scolding king's eyes lit up.

He immediately asked someone to go to Yelang to have his portrait painted.

Feng Yun said: "Just go ahead and scold the king."

"promise."

Yelang would prepare a translation for the painter, but Feng Yun did not want to get involved.

"Let's go to Shu Kingdom now."

King Sacu wanted to keep Feng Yun, so he said: "Fengzi waits until the lake is full before leaving. Then I will also make a triumphant return, and then I will personally send Fengzi to the Kingdom of Shu."

The mountains are high and information is closed. Compared with the Chu State where you can find water and go down the river, there is little access to the Shu State.

I only know that Shu is a large country northwest of Yelang.

After that, without giving Feng Yun any chance to refute, he sent a pair of Yelang people to come.

"I'm guarding Fengzi here in the lake, and I'll take the painter back."

"Swish..." Shanfeng was at Feng Yun's leg, pulling on his cuffs and looking at him.

Feng Yun was slightly helpless.

"Then let's wait until the water is full."
