Spring and Autumn I Am King

Thanks to the book friend IFansI for the reward and evaluation ticket!

Several Chinese people who are good at music play the pipe sheng and bells and drums. Even in a small town in Chengyi, it is not as grand and beautiful as the team of musicians in the lower palace, and it is not as elegant and beautiful as the music of the Marquis of Jin in Xintian. To Zhao Wuxi, who had just recognized the five notes, these pieces could only be considered rough.

However, the host of the ceremony, Cheng Wu, is not an ordinary person. As he boasted, he still has a few brushes in this regard. Dou Pengzu also quietly and Wuxi said that Cheng Wu this year is indeed more presided over by Cheng Weng than in previous years. Be good.

I saw Cheng Wu wearing a ferocious peach wood noodle. He danced or chanted, and his movements were exaggerated. After going around in a circle, he said something in his mouth, "The auspicious time has come, please gentleman to present a gift!"

Zhao Wuxi hugged the lamb in his arms, stepped forward, and killed it with a one-foot-long bronze dagger.

Cheng Wu held a small copper cauldron, then sprinkled the sheep's blood on the door of the temple, and guided him all the way to the top of the mound, offering blood to Xuan Ming and Zu Mi, and finally wiped it on the Nuo face he was wearing. make it even more terrifying.

At the same time, the sheng, xiao and bells and drums also began to be played. According to the rules, a total of six times are required to be played, and then "you can worship the gods."

Along with the repeated music, Cheng Wu's movements became more and more frantic. He kept dancing on the mound, communicating with the gods, while Zhao Wuxi lowered his eyes and waited for the start of the good show.

Suddenly, Cheng Wu seemed to have been struck by lightning, trembling all over, his eyes turned white, and a cloud of white smoke even came out of his body, and he didn't know how he did it. .

After Cheng Wu's trembling stopped, his whole person's temperament seemed to have changed, he became indifferent, his eyes were cold and arrogant, and he became a real witch.

"The mountain master and the water master have arrived!"

The superstitious Chinese people in the countryside looked solemn, and most of them believed it to be true, and bowed their hands in worship.

After the blood food and wind music have attracted the attention of the gods, you can ask them for divination.

In the Spring and Autumn period, not far from ancient times, divination has inherited the legacy of ancient times. From the public officials to the common people, they are very trustworthy.

In Jin State, almost every township has its own deity that they worship and believe, called "Lord". After offering sacrifices, people will make divinations to the Lord to predict future events.

Divination asks for every detail. Some ask about the weather next year, ask about the harvest next year, will hunting be a big hit? Will war come? Where should the well be chosen? What is the best day to sow seeds? My wife is pregnant, will she give birth naturally? Is it a boy or a girl...

Zhao Wuxi visited the oracle bone inscriptions unearthed in the Yin Ruins in later generations. Even if it was a divination presented by Wuding, the king of Shang, he asked nothing more than these things.

With a wave of his wide sleeves, he bowed to Cheng Wu, who was already the spokesperson of the gods, and sent someone to fetch the divination oracle bones that had been prepared.

Tortoise shells are the most effective for divination, but where can one find tortoise shells in Chengxiang, where the terrain is high and deep inland, Chengwu originally suggested to use a cow's shoulder blade instead, but Zhao Wuxi rejected it.

The field replacement method he demonstrated yesterday is very useful for promoting per-mu yield, but it also has its drawbacks, that is, it is more dependent on cattle ploughing and plows, and is suitable for large-scale continuous cropping.

Although Zhao Wuxi brought a lot of cattle and horses from the lower palace, it was still not enough to distribute the land to the entire township. He decided that in the future, he would also persuade Zhao Yang to promulgate a family law prohibiting the slaughter of cattle. Now he naturally has to lead by example.

Therefore, what Wu Xie offered was a white and yellowed deer shoulder blade, a groove was drilled on the back of the bone and a round hole the size of a jujube stone, and the front was engraved with divination.

What he wants to ask is naturally the most important thing in Chengyi right now.

Wu Xie didn't even look at those divinations like ghosts and talismans, and recited it aloud: "Boy Wu Xie, I respectfully ask the gods, whether it is good luck or bad luck for Bo Dongchong Daitian!"

Cheng Long has been shrinking in the crowd, secretly instructing the Cheng family members not to agree to a meeting of the public, feeling that the general situation is in his hands, but when he heard this divination, he was shocked and felt that something was wrong.

I saw that after Cheng Wu took the deer bone, he ignited the Jingmu with gold flint, and scorched the groove on the back of the deer bone with fire. After burning to a certain extent, the thin bone armor would form cracks, making a crackling cracking sound. .

The people of the country were silent, and they closed their eyes to listen to this mysterious whisper.

Wu Zhu is based on these sounds, as well as the length, thickness, straightness, and invisibility of the cracks, to judge the good and bad, success or failure, and to explain the will of the gods.

Zhao Wuxi still stood under the mound with a respectful face, although, as the director of this incident, he already knew the result of the divination, so he only needed to appreciate Cheng Wu's acting skills.

Soon, Cheng Wu came to the answer. Standing in the middle of the mound, he raised the deer's shoulder blades above his head, and announced to the people of the country who were craned their necks to wait for the answer, "The speech is out!"

Because of the mask, Cheng Wu sang in a hoarse voice, like a whisper from thousands of years ago, which added to his mystery.

"The method of planting the field in winter is great luck!"

There was an uproar among the people of the country. Only Zhao Wuxi couldn't help laughing at Cheng Wu's realistic performance, showing a faint smile that no one noticed, but he quickly covered it up.

"It's actually great luck!" Including the people of the Cheng family, they had already decided yesterday that they would oppose the implementation of winter planting and the Daitian method in their own fields, and now they are a little unbelievable.

After the seance of the gods, Cheng Wu is already the messenger of the gods in the world, and can speak and act on behalf of the gods.

While everyone was swaying, he spoke again, his voice still low and hoarse:

"Everyone, listen to Wu's words, a gentleman is benevolent, he stops people from dying, and he has great virtue in his hometown. His virtue is exhausted to the heavens, and the gods pity the poverty and poverty of his territory, so he borrowed the mouth of the villagers and peasants to teach them. The technique of rice farming and crops, so that it can be carried forward and benefit the world. But who knows, you are short-sighted, and you will not obey the order of the gentleman of the Zhao family!"

As soon as these words came out, Sang Yangweng, Cheng Rong and the others who had been listening with their ears pricked up suddenly, they were short-sighted, weren't they talking about them? Cheng Wu is putting them on the opposite side of ghosts and gods!

Zhao Wuxi closed his eyes slightly and apologized to the mountain master and water master who did not know whether they existed or not.

He is a realist. When the stubborn and conservative Chinese cannot be persuaded by scientific reasoning, the effect of forcible persecution by power is not very good, so he must use the power of theocracy...

This is also to let Chengyi live a good life earlier, at least to be able to have food and clothing next year, and to help him win a top ranking.

After making such a decision, the magician is naturally his first choice to cooperate with~www.readwn.com~ This person can betray the clan decisively, and he does not show any resistance to pretending to be a ghost. But from this point of view, Cheng Wu has not yet reached the highest level of magic stick - that is, he has even deceived himself.

Wu Xie revealed her thoughts in yesterday's secret conversation, and she got the promise of Cheng Wu, and that's why today's performance is possible.

The result of the divination has been confirmed, and Cheng Wu used a copper chip to engrave the divination on the bone armor, and then stored it in the underground pit.

At this point, the communication between humans and gods is over. After the ceremony of "sending off the gods", the so-called "mountain masters and water masters" left the altar.

Cheng Wu seemed to have been drained of all his strength, fell on the mound with a thud, and fell into a deep sleep, as if he had really experienced a difficult communication with the gods...

The expressions of the people around were different.

Sang Yangweng lowered his head and pondered, his expression very hesitant; Chenglong clenched his fists, he did not expect that Zhao Wuxi would play such a game; and smart as Jiqiao already saw that there was something wrong, but he did not stand up Break it down.

He trusted Zhao Wuxi, and could see that this little gentleman's intention to make Chengyi rich was sincere, and after the first look at the Daitian method yesterday, he felt that it should be effective.

No matter what, it's up to people, just trust the little gentleman to the end! After this trick, Ji Qiao can already predict the result of the public discussion.

Wu Xie took a deep breath, turned around and looked around at the Chinese.

"Sacrificial divination has been completed! All clans and people of the country, let's start a public discussion!"

Ask for collection, ask for recommendation, tomorrow will be three more...
