Chapter 19 begins the sacrifice

Early in the morning, when there was only some light in the sky, Shang Wu, accompanied by Lu Lu, walked out of the wooden house where he lived, and the important principals and deacons of the family, such as doorposts and stones, were waiting for Shang Wu at the door.

"Go to the altar." Shang Wu simply spit out three words, and walked over with people, this time to worship requires piety, and all of them did not ride horses along the way.

Except for the women who took care of children under the age of three, the patients with cold symptoms in the medical house, and the guards on duty in the Dayi merchants, the entire Dayi merchants walked with Shang Wu to the altar on the hill next to the Dayi merchants.

Along the way, the mighty procession, in front of which there was a sacrificial dance with a mask of Wu to open the way, and the musicians playing and beating on the side accompanied the music, and the scene was much more magnificent than that of the merchant village.

Halfway up the mountain, Shang Wu was already covered in sweat, his face was pale and he opened his mouth to breathe, his legs were already soft as tofu, and he felt that he would only be able to hold his upper body at any time and be overwhelmed, so Shang Wu could only grit his teeth and hold on. There are also two hands that are supported by people, otherwise it is estimated that they would have fallen to the ground a long time ago.

Compared with Shang Wu's physical exhaustion, Lu Lu next to him was light and healthy, and he couldn't show fatigue at all, and he could still support Shang Wu with both hands, which showed that Lu Lu's physical physique was still very good.

The snail on the other side of Shang Wu supporting Shang Wu is a little worse, and the fine sweat on his head is already densely packed, but it is still much better than Shang Wu's fatigue, and now it is just that his breathing is a little rough and sweating a little.

And the sacrifices who danced in front of Shang Wu were tireless, dancing all the way from Dayi Shang, without stopping, I don't know if they have a good constitution or some way for them to have such good physical strength.

The musicians who accompanied him have already changed one round in three shifts, after all, musicians also need strength to blow the instrument and make beautiful notes.

And the people who came out of Dayi behind Shang Wu have been unconsciously divided into several sections according to the difference in physical condition, and the people who are in charge of the core affairs such as the doorposts and stones are the people who are close to Shang Wu, and they are the people who are trustworthy and the deacons under the doorposts and stones, and then the people who listen to the errands below, and the last ones are some frail old and young.

At this time, the Wu dance sacrifice stopped in place and began to bow down on the ground, chanting words in their mouths, but they couldn't hear what they said, it should be some blessing mantras. Shang Wu didn't bother to care what they were reading, and now that Shang Wu knew that he could take a short break, he found a stone to sit down and rest.

And after a bowing ceremony, the dance sacrifice actually began to dance, like a dance and a drama that performed a story.

Shang Wu sat on the stone and watched the group of dancers dance the story.

With the performance of this group of dances and sacrifices, a story slowly emerged through their interpretation, the story will be a monarch just now, this monarch wants to revive his dynasty, but there is no effective minister in the court to assist him, so the monarch has not spoken for three years, leaving all political affairs to the decision of Tsukasa Zai, and observing the national atmosphere.

Later, the monarch dreamed of a saint, so he woke up the next day and observed the ministers and officials according to the appearance in the dream, but found that none of them were the people he saw in the dream. So this monarch sent hundreds of officials to search everywhere, and finally found the appearance of the person he dreamed of in one place. At that time, this man was serving a prison sentence, and his job while serving his sentence happened to be to build roads, and brought him to the monarch, who recognized this man at a glance as the man of his dreams.

After talking to him, the monarch thought that he was indeed a saint. He appointed him prime minister, and later this man assisted the monarch in governing the country well.

Of course, if this person serving a prison sentence wants to be appointed as the prime minister, these civil and military officials must be difficult to recognize, and the people will not approve of a prisoner being promoted to the prime minister.

Then the scene switches to this monarch fighting wars with other countries, and at the same time marrying and marrying other countries, and his women begin to increase more and more.

Next, these women not only help him give birth to children but also his staff give him advice, some are good farmers, and when they fight, they can also become female generals to fight on the battlefield, among which several of his women are also the monarchs of their own small countries,

The dance is still dancing and performing, and Shang Wu is a little distracted, Shang Wu can see that this play is not anything else, but the twenty-third monarch Wu Ding of the Shang Dynasty, known as Wu Ding Zhongxing, and the beginning of the interpretation here is the allusion that Wu Ding said for the virtuous master, and the later interpretation of Wu Ding's wife, such as women's concubines, women's good and women's Gui, mentioned in the record that Wu Ding had more than 60 wives.

What the hell is this crow thinking, why did he let these dancers dance like this? Shang Wu was a little distracted.
