Gu Fengchun asked puzzledly: "What blind spot?"

Zhou Dingxuan sighed, and said: "The blind spot in the origin of the history of the ancient Shu Kingdom, specifically, the history of the rise of the Cancong Kingdom, has always been one of my main research topics. The Cancong clan is also closely related to Yincheng. An ethnic group with thousands of connections, but, as far as I know, Cancong is the Bo people."

Gu Fengchun was stunned. Obviously, what Zhou Dingxuan said made him feel very contradictory. If Cancong was a Bo, why would Cancong unite with other tribes to exterminate his own race?

Zhou Dingxuan obviously understood the doubts in Gu Fengchun's heart, and then said: "In Li Taibai's "The Road to Shu is Difficult", there is a poem describing the ancient Shu Kingdom, which says, "Cancong and Yufu, how at a loss was the founding of the country, and you came here forty-eight thousand Thousand years old, don't live with Qin Sai.' From this poem, we can know how far away the closed Shu land is from the Central Plains, and how scarce the communication between the two is. This is also the case, forming the unique culture of Bashu area Sanxingdui culture is its most important feature." Gu Fengchun nodded, agreeing with Zhou Dingxuan's words, his heart moved, and he thought of the huge bronze mask that his father Gu Zhenting discovered when he was excavating Yinxu in Henan, and he faintly felt that it should be related to Zhou Dingxuan's words. What Zhou Dingxuan wants to say has a certain connection.

Zhou Dingxuan went on to say: "There are very clear records in many ancient books: Silkworm Cong, Zongmu. Zongmu happens to be one of the main characteristics of the Bo people. The two eyes protrude like crabs, a bit like the Danfeng eyes we call today, but It is definitely bigger and more beautiful than Danfengyan; look at the reliefs of the sacrificial scene, the masks of the priests inside, and the cultural relics unearthed in Sanxingdui..."

Hearing this, Gu Fengchun already understood in his heart, he took Zhou Dingxuan's words, and said: "Uncle Zhou, you mean that the people in these scenes are all Bo people, and what's more, the beautiful bronze wares unearthed at Sanxingdui , are all left over from the Bo people’s civilization system?”

"That's right," Zhou Dingxuan said excitedly, with a flushed face, "Before, I couldn't explain the connection between Cancong and the Bo people. It wasn't until I heard what you said just now that I was sure of my own. guess."

"How do you say it?" Ye Ya, who was standing beside them, was at a loss. He didn't know much about history. The fish I've seen.As everyone knows, this is the change of dynasty in Shu.The first dynasty in Shu was the Cancong clan, which later experienced Baiguan and Yufu, and later became the legendary Wangdi Du Yu who became a cuckoo bird.It's just that Ye Ya doesn't know anything about the history of this Shu land.Not to mention Ye Ya, even people like Zhou Dingxuan and Gu Fengchun who have studied the classics have a serious lack of Bashu culture, because these are passed down orally from later generations, and there are very few written records.

"For a certain purpose, Cancong wiped out his own clansmen and established the first Shu Dynasty." Zhou Dingxuan analyzed: "Let's assume that if the records in the notebook novels that Fengchun read are true, then The result is very certain: it was the Cancong clan that wiped out the Bo people; and Cancong himself is a Bo people, so it is very possible that the Cancong tribe is a branch of the Bo people, or some of the Bo people at that time opposed the superstructure of the Bo people at that time. some of the rebels."

Both Gu Fengchun and Ye Ya nodded, expressing their agreement with Zhou Dingxuan's point of view. Since ancient times, there have been countless incidents of rebelling against the rulers for their own class interests, and the change of dynasties is often due to such reasons. When the oppressed people can't bear it anymore , they can only rise up.It's just that Cancong's actions are too cruel, and it's too unreasonable to completely wipe out his own clan in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Is there any reason for this?

Zhou Dingxuan went on to say: "Let's assume again, Feng Chun's notes mentioned in the novel that the Bo people's fighting legion suddenly lost control and dealt a fatal blow to the Bo people. After losing control, the coalition forces of the various tribes led by the Cancong clan counterattacked the Bo people. Where is the risk when he inherits, if he can use a little trick to destroy it at this time, then the effect will be self-evident." When Zhou Dingxuan said this, he took a deep breath, Then he said: "If all these are true, it is no surprise that Cancong's coalition forces can defeat the Bo people who are stronger than them, and they can also wipe out the Bo people tribe with devastating force, and establish the first ancient Shu. kingdom."

Gu Feng shook his head, frowned and said, "But why did Cancong do this? Why did he treat his own people like this? Uncle, your inferences are all based on a series of assumptions, and there is no sufficient evidence to back it up. Explain what. So, so..." Gu Fengchun stopped here, because Zhou Dingxuan was his elder, and he was unwilling to easily veto Zhou Dingxuan's remarks.

"Son, I have evidence. The evidence is the reliefs in front of you, and our destination: the altar." Zhou Dingxuan looked at Gu Fengchun calmly. Gu Fengchun's words did not make him angry, but he felt relieved. Gu Fengchun Unlike other people, who accept all the words of authority, they use their own thinking to think about problems.

"Altar?" Ye Ya and Gu Fengchun were very confused, how much Zhou Dingxuan knew that they had never heard of?

"That's right. It's a sacrificial altar." Zhou Dingxuan continued, "Look at these reliefs. It's the most solemn sacrifice of the Bo people. The Bo people claim to be the descendants of the gods. Every 30 years, the Bo people will hold a grand sacrifice. Every time there is a sacrifice, eleven priests will dedicate their souls to the gods to protect the reincarnation marks left by the gods. The gods also promise them that when the time is right, they will come back to the world and bring them back to heaven When Zhou Dingxuan said this, he coughed.

"We can use the power of the tides to set sail when the wind is down..." Gu Fengchun murmured, this was an endless sentence he heard when he heard the voice of Lang Hua, and he couldn't help but say it at this moment Even he himself didn't know why he repeated this sentence.

"What did you say?" Zhou Dingxuan's complexion changed drastically, and he turned pale in an instant when he was rosy due to excessive excitement just now, and asked in a trembling voice: "How did you hear this sentence?!" Obviously, Zhou Dingxuan was right. The meaning of this sentence is very clear.
