The ministers were shocked when they heard this, and they didn't know what to say, let alone whether this matter was a good thing or a curse for the Chu State.

Perhaps, with the six countries just being repulsed, even if the countries know about this, I am afraid it will be difficult to unite to attack the Chu State!

At this time, Xiong Huai saw that most of the ministers were shocked, and suddenly smiled slightly in his heart, this is what he wants.

Otherwise, how can we continue to prove to the world that the Chu State has been favored by the great god Nuwa? Otherwise, how can the five-color stone that was developed by the Chu State for several years be sold?

Although the five-color stone is a heaven-mending artifact and cannot be sold, the so-called defective products of refining the five-color stone, the four-color stone and the three-color stone, can still be sold.

Another important purpose of this sacrifice to Nuwa is to make the five-color stone into a Warring States version of the diamond, so as to make a lot of money.

Thinking of this, Xiong Huai frowned again, under the promotion of the official state of Chu, coupled with the fact that Chu and Yue already had many sacrifices to Nuwa, it was easy to establish a belief in the great god of Nuwa in the territory of Chu State.

However, in other countries, it is difficult, especially in countries such as Qin, where there is very little belief in the great god Nuwa.

If other countries don't believe in the things favored by the Black Emperor of Chu State, then they can only be proud of themselves in Chu State's own country, and they can't make the people of other countries yearn for and fear Chu State.

In this way, not only is it difficult for the five-color stones of the Chu State to open up sales channels in other countries, but it is also more difficult to maximize the effect of the Black Emperor's favor of the Chu State.

It is still a trivial matter to make money, and to enhance the status of Chu in the world, this is the most important task of the five-color stone and even the Black Emperor.

Just imagine, the great god Nuwa, whom everyone worships in the Qin State, favors the Chu State, once the Chu State and the Qin State are at war, will the soldiers of the Qin State die before the battle?

You know, now, before going to war, it is common to pray for the protection of ghosts and gods, use the power of ghosts and gods to boost morale, and intimidate and deal with them.

Because it is a legitimate interface to start a war without sacrificing ghosts and gods, it is a legitimate interface, so ghosts and gods are still the current trend, and they can't be changed in a short time.

If the enemy country is at war with the Chu State, then pray to the Black Emperor who favors the Chu State and ask the Black Emperor to bless them with the God of War Chu State.

Who would believe in such a thing?

Because no matter how you look at it, it feels awkward!

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai glanced at the northwest direction, where is the Tianqi location, and it is also where the Qin State is located, perhaps, to spread the belief of the Black Emperor, it should start from the Qin State.

Thinking of this, Xiong Huai couldn't help but shake his head and sighed: "Zhuqing, since ancient times, the sages have said that the sky is not enough in the northwest, and the land is not in the southeast, this is not unreasonable, but true. Since the collapse of the pillar of heaven, the sky has broken a hole, although there is a great god Nuwa to make up for the sky, but after the loss of the pillar of heaven, the sky will tilt to the northwest.

Therefore, the great god Nuwa has been busy mending the heavens, doing his best to prevent the heavens from collapsing from the northwest. And the widow's decision to sacrifice the Black Emperor with five-colored stones is to offer something to the god Nuwa to make up for the sky, so as not to fall to the ground. ”

When the ministers heard this, a worrying allusion suddenly appeared in their minds.

It's just that now even the five-colored stone that mends the sky is appearing in the world, who can say that the sky will not fall.

At this time, Zhao Ju heard the king of Chu suddenly mention that the northwest and the sky was about to fall, and he immediately became suspicious.

Could it be that with the wisdom of the king of Chu, there would be such a stupid idea as worrying about the sky?

Then, after a little thought in my heart, I gained a little.

So, just when everyone was puzzled, he coughed lightly twice, and after attracting everyone's attention, he arched his hand and said: "Great King, as everyone knows, the sky has always been tilting to the northwest, so even if the sky falls, it is the Qin State in the northwest that will suffer first. Moreover, the five-colored stone is a treasure of the artifact, and our Chu State is here to worship the great god Nuwa and help the great god Nuwa to make up the sky, but it is the Qin State that benefits.

Therefore, the minister thought that he couldn't cheapen the Qin State, sacrifice to the Black Emperor, refine the five-color stone to make up for the sky, and the Qin State also had to exert its strength. ”

The ministers were stunned when they heard this, in the past, Zhou Tianzi held a sacrificial activity, and all countries had to hand over sacrifices to contribute to the sacrifice.

However, since the weakening of Zhou Tianzi, various countries have never contributed to Zhou Tianzi's sacrificial activities.

Now that the state of Chu is holding a sacrifice, but letting the state of Qin contribute, isn't this humiliating the state of Qin and making the state of Qin a vassal of the state of Chu?

The mention of this kind of thing is very likely to make Qin and Chu turn against each other.

Zhuguo Zhaoju has always been shrewd, how could he make such a foolish suggestion to the king of Chu.

When some ministers were about to advise the king of Chu, Xiong Huai looked at Zhao Ju and smiled, then shook his head and said: "Zhu Guo's words are wrong, last time the sky collapsed, the sky and water fell to the ground, and all parts of the world were affected by floods. Therefore, the collapse of the sky is the business of the people of the world, where will be divided into south, east and west.

Moreover, the widow sacrificed to the Black Emperor out of his own heart, to contribute to the world, and to share the worries of the people of the world, how could he change his original intention because of the Qin State? ”

When Zhao Ju heard this, he immediately bowed his hand and said: "The king is merciful, has the world in his heart, and admires him." ”

"But..." Xiong Huai groaned again.

Everyone was already relieved when they heard that the King of Chu did not mean to let the Qin State contribute, but at this moment, as soon as the King of Chu's voice changed, the hearts of the ministers rose again.

Xiong Huai paused, looked at the nervous ministers, and slowly spoke: "What Zhu Guo said also makes sense, the Black Emperor mends the sky, and the first to benefit is the Qin State. However, few people have heard that the gods sacrificed by the people of Qin are mostly the gods of Wuxian, and there are very few gods of Nuwa, which is not the case of Qin. ”

As he spoke, Xiong Huai looked at Tai Bu beside him and said, "Tai Bu, Qing is the premier witch of my Chu State, and he can communicate with ghosts and gods. Therefore, the widow wanted Qing to go to Qin and tell the king of Qin about the black emperor.

The Black Emperor made up for the heavens and created people, and the world was all blessed by the Black Emperor, but the Qin State only sacrificed to the four emperors of the Five Emperors, except for the Black Emperor who made up for the sky, especially the Black Emperor who was still making up for the northwest sky, so that the Qin State would not be grateful, this is the Qin State's fault.

Therefore, please go to Qin to lobby the King of Qin, and let Qin also sacrifice to the Black Emperor. ”

When Taibu heard this, his mind was at a loss, the king actually asked me to persuade the king of Qin to sacrifice the black emperor, how is this good?

Don't say that there was no Black Emperor in the world before, just say that the Black Emperor favored the Chu State and gave the five-color stone, other countries would not recognize the Black Emperor, let alone sacrifice the Black Emperor.

This task is simply difficult for a strong man!

It's just that Taibu glanced at the King of Chu, and when he saw that the King of Chu looked at him undoubtedly, his heart sank, and he immediately responded: "The minister receives the order!" ”

Xiong Huai nodded when he heard this, and then handed the five-colored stone in his hand to Taibu: "Okay, please Taibu start sacrificing to the gods." ”

"Yui."

After that, Taibu held a ceremony to throw the five-colored stone of the king of Chu as a sacrifice and throw it into the river to pray for the blessing of the Black Emperor.

After the ceremony, Xiong Huai returned to the palace with his ministers.
