Chapter 175: God's Revelation
King Wu returned to the Wu Palace worriedly, Xi Shi greeted him, and saw that the salute was over, only to see that King Wu did not joke and laugh as usual, but looked uncertain.
"What worries the king?" Shih Tzu asked tentatively.
King Wu said: "The construction of Gusutai is a major event. If there is a major event in the country, there will be a warning from heaven. ”
Shih Tzu said, "Another omen today? ”
King Wu said: "Yes, when the groundbreaking ceremony was held in Lingyan Mountain today, two phoenixes suddenly fell from the sky and chirped and danced in front of the foundation stone. Suddenly, the two phoenixes caught fire, and then rushed out of the flames and flew away. ”
Xi Shi Ling Ran in his heart: "Is there such a thing? ”
King Wu said: "This will not be fake, hundreds of people present have seen it." ”
Shih Tzu said, "What does this symbolize? ”
King Wu said: "Everyone present was stunned, only Dazai Boyao explained: This is an auspicious omen, indicating that Wu will get a new great development." ”
Shih Tzu said, "Isn't that a good sign? Why was the king worried? ”
King Wu said: "Bo Yao said this, which naturally makes people feel relieved, but Bo Yao is not a professional sorcerer after all, is he right?" ”
Xi Shi was apprehensive in his heart, and the construction of Gusutai was a conspiracy carefully designed by Fan Li, to consume the national strength of Wu through an unprecedented huge project.
Things went smoothly, and if nothing else, a groundbreaking ceremony was held and the project was officially launched.
But things went unexpected. A fire phoenix appeared at the ceremony. Bo Yao interprets it as an auspicious omen, but is Bo Yao's explanation correct? If Bo Yao's explanation is exactly the opposite, wouldn't it be troublesome?
The construction of Gusutai is to make Xi Shi happy, and Xi Shi can make King Wu more comfortable and happy. But if it affects the fortunes of the country because of this, it is better not to cultivate. King Wu still couldn't make up his mind.
King Wu is not too confused, between the country and the beauty, he values the country more. In this turbulent era, there are beauties in the country, and without the country, Xi Shi is not necessarily his woman.
This was a critical moment, and it could not dispel King Wu's doubts, and the plan to build Gusutai was likely to be canceled, and Fan Li's plan failed. Xi Shi abandoned Fan Li to serve King Wu, and it lost its meaning.
Who can dispel King Wu's doubts? Naturally a professional wizard. Shamans were a very popular profession in antiquity, responsible for divination, feng shui, interpreting visions, and acting as an intermediary between man and the gods. Clever wizards can often influence the course of a country.
The most powerful soothsayer in Wu is called Wu Jia. Wu Jia is not only powerful, but also very well-informed, and he can know the big and small things that happen in Gusu City at the first time.
Wu Jia, like the wizards of other countries, has a very good brain, and every time something happens, he has to give accurate assertions, which not only requires a thorough understanding of the world's major events, but also a deep understanding and accurate judgment of the intricate and complex interpersonal contradictions between the DPRK and China. Then make a judgment in favor of the strong, or follow the strong man's train of thought, dispel doubts, and let them do it happily. The so-called solution of doubts.
It's a bit confusing. In Fan Li's previous life, under the guidance of his mother, he read "Zuo Chuan", which recorded a large number of cases of divination, and the accuracy was surprisingly high.
It's not scientific, but it's a lot of unscientific things. This book is, and this aspect is not explored. If you are interested, you can study the Book of Changes.
Some things that can't be decided are often consulted by Wu Jia, and Wu Jia makes the final decision.
Powerful enough!
The construction of Gusutai naturally can't be concealed from Wujia. Wu Jia naturally knew why King Wu wanted to build Gusutai, not to enjoy it crazy with Xi Shi? If he was asked about this, he would naturally follow King Wu's wishes. Otherwise, you may lose your job.
Wu Jia was invited. It was a man in his forties, with a pale face, long hair and deep eyes, wearing a barrel-shaped black robe.
He asked King Wu to recite the question in his heart three times. Then burn incense and bow down. He muttered and muttered, and suddenly drew a wooden sword and danced to match the strange dance under his feet.
After tossing and turning for a while, he suddenly fell to the ground with a "goug" sound, unconscious.
After a long while, Wu Jia woke up leisurely, sat up, sat cross-legged on his legs, drooped his eyelids, and muttered thickly in his mouth.
Suddenly he opened his eyes, and sang clearly:
Lingyan out of the spirit bird,
The spirit bird is on fire.
The spirit bird rushes to the sky,
The building is thousands of feet high.
After singing, he said loudly: "Listen, the king of people, do you want to ask about the construction of Gusutai?" ”
King Wu said, "Exactly." ”
Wu Jia said: "Is there a strange omen in Lingyan Mountain? ”
King Wu said, "Exactly." ”
Wu Jia said: "Are there two fire phoenixes flying into the sky?" ”
King Wu was surprised in his heart,! He knows it all! He's not there, isn't he? (In fact, Fan Li had already told him and done enough homework for him) hurriedly replied: "Exactly." ”
Wu Jia said: "The king of people can't make up his mind now, I don't know if Gusutai should be repaired, yes or no?" ”
King Wu said: "Exactly, exactly, please ask the great god for guidance." ”
Wu Jia sang the lyrics of the two lines just now, and then said: "Back then, King Wu was defeated, and there was also a spirit bird that appeared, Luan Feng and Ming, but the result was that King Wu succeeded?" ”
King Wu: "King Wu succeeded and created an 800-year-old foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty. ”
Wu Jia said: "Phoenix, the divine bird also, the Lord is auspicious, and the divine bird appears, suggesting the construction of the Gusu platform, the feat is also, and it is auspicious." ”
After that, he fell to the ground with a "gou" and died.
After a while, Wu Jia woke up and hurriedly paid homage: "The minister has just been enlightened, and he is out of etiquette." Ask the King for forgiveness. ”
King Wu said, "Sir, please get up." The great god descended, and everything was undisturbed. ”
Wu Jia said, "What did the great god say just now? ”
King Wu said: "The great god said, the phoenix divine bird, the lord is auspicious, the divine bird is coming, and it is auspicious." ”
Wu Jia said: "The revelation of the gods, the things that the king asked, are very auspicious, don't worry about doing it boldly, it will bring good luck to the kingdom of Wu." ”
King Wu was overjoyed: "Thank you!" Mr. hard work, come here, see the reward! ”
Wu Jia took the reward money and left happily.
Wu Wangle returned to the harem in a hurry, and Xi Shi greeted him: "King, what do the gods say?" ”
King Wu said happily: "Guess! ”
Shih Tzu said, "Is it a good sign?" ”
King Wu said, "Guess! ”
Xi Shi said: "God said that the construction of Gusutai conformed to the will of heaven, right? ”
King Wu said, "Guess! ”
Xi Shi said angrily: "The concubine doesn't guess." ”
King Wu picked up Xi Shi and turned in a circle, Xi Shi shouted in fright: "The king put it down, I'm dizzy!" ”
King Wu put down Xi Shi and laughed: "God said, go up to the top, everything is going well." Let's let our hands and feet do it. ”
Xi Shi was ecstatic in his heart, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the king!" After cultivating Gusutai, I can accompany the king to play, so happy. ”
