"Your Majesty is dreaming between Wangwei?"

In the Chen Bao Temple in Chencang County, the whitish-haired, sallow-faced witch pheasant looked at the panting black-faced guy and had already guessed his intention.

"Your Majesty asked Shaofu Cheng to invite the old man to occupy his dreams?"

"Yes, yes."

Heifu took the soup handed over by Wu Zhu and drank it all before he had time to observe the small temple.

The most striking thing about this temple is that a large pottery rooster stands on the eaves of the roof, holding its head high and making a long cry at the rising sun.

The name of the ancestral hall is "Chen Bao Ancestral Hall", and Heifu saw a record when he translated the "Qin Chronicle" in the Xianyang Tibetan Room: "In the nineteenth year of Duke Wen, he was awarded Ruo Shiyun and was in the North Hancheng Ancestral Hall in Chencang." Its god is not yet old, or the age comes, and it always comes in the night, and the brilliance is like a meteor, and it comes from the southeast to gather in the ancestral city, then it is like a rooster, and its voice is cloudy, and the pheasant cries at night. With a prison shrine, Chen Bao is called ......"

In the final analysis, this is just a meteorite, one night from the southeast fell in Chencang Beihan, the meteorite fell in the silent night, startled a mountain of pheasants to cry, but people thought that it was the pheasant god manifestation, so it said: "The rooster cries the god land".

This stone was sent to Qin Wengong by the locals, but it was seen that its texture was like a stone, but its shape and color resembled liver and lungs. Qin Wen Gongqi thought it was a treasure, and after Wu Zhu explained it, he enshrined it in the ancestral temple on the hillside north of Chen Cang City, and called it Chen Bao.

Now hundreds of years have passed, Chen Bao Temple is no longer prosperous, but the Qin Dynasty still arranged a special witch to sacrifice in this four seasons, that is, the old witch with pheasant feathers on his head, wearing a feather coat, and full of phlegm when he speaks, and every half an hour he asks the little apprentice to pass over the spittoon and spit out......

Don't look at Wu Zhi who looks frail, but he is also one of the two most famous Wu Zhu in Qindi today. The other is the "Wu Ya" of the Xichou Temple in Wangyi, and Qin Shi Huang also sent a chariot to order the king to leave and invite him.

Heifu easily got this errand, and he didn't want to be too late than the king, so he said: "Your Majesty has arrived in Longxi first, and sent us to invite Dawu, there is not much time, Dawu, you and I should go to the car and talk!" ”

Wu Zhi knew that he couldn't refuse, and he pinched his fingers and calculated, since the ceremony of setting up the twelve golden men, the emperor may not have summoned him for a long time, and he didn't even come to see the western tour.

This was a rare opportunity to face the saint, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he asked his disciple to bring the necessary tortoise shells and other things, and hurriedly went out with Heifu......

However, Heifu was surprised to find that among the necessities brought by Wu Zhi, there were several rolls of dried marijuana leaves, which were the kind of smoking marijuana that the doctor Chen Wuji had discovered in Yun Mengze a few years ago.

"Why does the Great Witch have this thing?" Heifu asked as he helped the wizard to the car.

Wu Zhi wanted to maintain his mystery, and the gods said that it was a psychic thing, and after it was ignited, he could wander outside the world and mingle with ghosts and gods......

"." Heifu thought to himself, isn't it just smoking marijuana?

It turned out that this was a "good thing" that Wu Ya got from Nanjun Shangjia when she went to Xianyang to help the sacrifice because of the Twelve Golden People.

After he tasted it once, he was out of control, thinking that he was really communicating with the gods, not knowing that it was just a hallucination produced by nerve anesthesia.

In just a few years, this object has become popular among wizards and alchemists.

Heifu secretly scolded Chen Wuyi, the initiator, and at the same time felt that after returning to Xianyang, he should report to the relevant departments of the Shaofu who were in charge of the inspection of the pass that Nanjun marijuana should be listed as a contraband!

He tactfully reminded Wu Zhi that when he dreamed in front of His Majesty, it was better not to smoke it, and it was better to be sober.

"Shaofu Cheng, what dream did Your Majesty have?" Wu Zhi didn't think so, and asked about business.

Heifu also listened to Prime Minister Wang Juan's dream interpretation, so he knew the general dream of Qin Shi Huang:

The emperor dreamed that the dogs and horses used to sacrifice Feizi came to life, he rode on a white horse, and the black dog led the way, and walked along Longshan to the east, walking and walking, and returned to Xianyang Palace, and the twelve golden people who were set up in front of the palace stood up suddenly......

At this time, a rooster crowed, and the emperor woke up, always feeling that this dream was quite meaningful, and summoned Wang Juan and others who accompanied him to interpret the dream.

Although Wang Juan is erudite, he is too deeply influenced by Confucianism, and feels that dreaming is not a mysterious thing, so he interprets it with the six dreams of "Zhou Li". He believes that Qin Shi Huang's dream is "a dream that he thinks about when he awakens", which is a dream, simply put, a dream day and night......

This is a scientific assertion, and Heifu also wanted to praise the feudal but not superstitious Prime Minister Wang, but Qin Shi Huang believed in mysticism more, and was not satisfied with Wang Juan's answer, so he asked two of the most famous witches to come.

The emperor moved his mouth, Heifu ran and broke his leg, he could only take people back to Longdong again, and ran all the way to Chen Bao Temple.

Wu Zhu is really an expert in dreaming, as early as the Yin Shang period, there are many records about Emperor Yin's dream in the oracle bone divination. Emperor Yin Wuding always asked the wizard to ask the ghosts and gods for him, whether his dreams were in trouble, and whether his dreams were in disaster.

In the Zhou Dynasty, he liked to play dream interpretation, and it is said that King Wen of Zhou and King Wu of Zhou had a lot of good dreams at that time, which foreshadowed that Zhou would definitely replace Yin. For example, King Wen once dreamed of "the sun and the moon on his body". The sun and moon are the symbols of the emperor, which obviously means that King Wen was ordered by the heavens. The dream of his wife Taiji is: "The court of the dream merchant produces thorns, the prince Fa (King Wu) takes the catalpa of the Zhou court, the tree is in the que, and the catalpa turns into pine, cypress, tree, and oak." ”

The Zhou sorcerer dreamed of Mingtang, thinking that this was a good omen, and that the emperor God wanted to give the "great life of Shang" to the Zhou people, and his own son would send the tree to Dayi Shang in the future!

The Qin people rose in the Zhou land, and also inherited the Zhou Dynasty's emphasis on dreams, Qin Mugong once did not wake up for seven days due to illness, dreamed of the residence of the Emperor of Heaven, traveled to the sky, and played Guangle. When he woke up, he saw it as a sign that God wanted him to dominate.

Now, Qin Shi Huang is dreaming again, or is it a strange dream in the land of non-children and horses, of course the emperor will think that this is a sign brought to him by the ancestors?

After recounting what had happened, Hefu asked in the bumpy carriage, "What does the Great Witch think this dream should be explained?" ”

Wu Zhi closed his eyes: "This is the secret of the ghosts and gods, and I can only tell Your Majesty, not others." ”

In fact, he hasn't figured out a way to respond.

Although Heifu had the intention to interfere, he didn't dare to be too obvious, annoying the witch childishness, and his eyes rolled, but he talked about another thing side by side.

"I remember that when the Twelve Golden Men were established, in addition to a few great witches from the Qin Land, His Majesty also asked the magicians from the land of Yanqi to also participate in the sacrifices......"

It's okay if Heifu doesn't mention it, as soon as he mentions those Yanqi Mountain Dongfang scholars, Wu Zhi is angry.

The major events of the country, in Rong and rituals, sacrifices, divination, dream interpretation, etc., have been forbidden by local witches since the founding of the Qin Dynasty. For example, a hundred years ago, when the battle for hegemony between Qin and Chu was fierce, King Qin Huiwen asked the Emperor of Heaven and the great god Wu Xian to bless the Qin State to win, so he asked the Qin sorcerer to engrave a stone to curse the defeat of the Chu State, because it was called "Curse Chu Wen".

In addition to sacrificing to the White Emperor Shaohao and Chen Bao Pheasant God, Qindi Wuzhu mainly believes in the "Three Witches", that is, "Wu Xian", "Da Shen Juqiu", and "Asian Camel", which are self-contained.

But since Qin Shi Huang ruled the world, the arrival of Shandong scholars has brought an unprecedented impact to the ancient Wuzhu of Qin.

The peers are enemies, and the monks are also engaged in astrology, immortals, houses, witch doctors, divination, etc., and they clash with Qin Di Wuzhu.

Wu Zhu originally looked down on these outsiders, but when he competed in front of the emperor, the two sides made a judgment.

Yanqi Fangshi not only borrowed Zou Yan's theory of yin and yang and five elements to package himself, but also called himself "Fang Xiandao", and lobbied the emperor with the immortal immortal theory of going to sea to seek immortals, and blew out the "Three Immortal Mountains" such as Penglai and abbot, saying that it was full of rare and exotic grasses of fairy seeds, and mortals could live forever if they ate them.

Qin Shi Huang longed for longevity, and the Yan Qi monks could speak well, so they were immediately attracted.

In contrast, Qindi Wuzhu is much more old-fashioned, only wearing a feather coat, staring, and chanting prayers that have been passed down for hundreds of years in the earthy Kansai dialect, so he was left out in the cold.

This time for the emperor's dream, if it weren't for Fang Shiduo staying in Xianyang, far water would not be able to quench the thirst of the near, and it is estimated that it would not be their turn......

"That's where the kid can't figure it out."

The journey was very long, and after two days of getting along day and night, and getting acquainted with Wu Zhi better, Heifu made a look of sympathy for Qin Wu and disgust with Fang Shi:

"Your Majesty rules the world, and says that the emperor's auspicious omen is the twelve golden people, and the golden people are from Longxi Lintao, but the Wuzhu of Qindi failed to seize the opportunity, and publicized it, and actually shared it with the Shanfang scholars at the ceremony, I am really worthless."

"He is cunning and bewitches His Majesty with evil words."

Wu Zhi had a gloomy face, and those Yan Qi Fangshi were arrogant, entering and leaving the palace, but they were left out in the cold, and they were angry when they thought about it.

But it is also helpless, Qin Di Wuzhu's brain is not as flexible as Yan Qi Fangshi, but people have been jumping up and down on the princes of Shandong for decades, and they dare to blow anything about immortality, what overseas fairy islands.

"When the scholars said that OOCL could seek immortality, they actually wanted His Majesty to give him money and silk, so that his descendants could return to their hometowns to squander."

"Not really!" Wu Zhi thought so.

Heifu desperately hinted: "But there are three immortal mountains in the east, is there no similar immortal abode in the west?" ”

"The West?"

Wu Zhi felt an itch in his throat, spat out another mouthful of phlegm, raised his cloudy eyes and looked at Heifu, you mean, "The State of the Queen Mother of the West?" ”

"Yes!"

The old guy finally kept up, and Hefu was pleased. However, Qin Wu was occluded, and Wu Zhi only knew a little about the legend of the Queen Mother of the West, which was far less detailed than the "" written by the Wei people.

Heifu said: "When I was in Xianyang, I used to study in the Tibetan room and saw a copy of "The Biography of Mu Tianzi" ......."

This is not a black man's fabrication, it is really a book written by the people of Wei, which records the fact that King Zhou Mu drove eight horses to the west, traveled 35,000 miles, and met the Queen Mother of the West. It is probably the Wei State that mythologized the story of the Zhou people who recorded the story of King Mu of Zhou's western tour.

After Wei's death, the book was received into the stone room collection, Zhang Cang compiled it, and before this westward trip, Heifu asked Chen Ping to help copy it onto hemp paper and compile it into a paper book......

He brought a total of two copies, and at this moment he took one out of his bosom and gave it to Wu Zhi with both hands.

Wu Zhi had also seen hemp paper, and it was not surprising that the old hand took it and opened the place where Heifu had specially clipped a leaf as a bookmark.

"The Queen Mother of the West has a leopard tail, tiger teeth, a good howl, and a hoopoe with fluffy hair......"

"The Queen Mother of the West said for Mu Tianzi: The white clouds are in the sky, and the mountains come out of their own eyes. The road is far away, and the mountains and rivers are among them. The son is not dead, but he can still come back......"

"Can the Queen Mother of the West give people years and make people live forever?"

Wu Zhi's eyes widened suddenly, Heifu's words, as well as this "The Biography of Mu Tianzi", were like a slap in the face, waking him up who had been confused for a long time!

"Why didn't you think of it before!"

In front of Qin Wu, who was almost eliminated by Yan Qi Fangshi, a brand new door was opened!

Dogs, horses, golden people, twelve, the mother kingdom of the West...... Wu Zhi already knows how to interpret the emperor's dream!
