Chapter Eighty-Three: Eight Hundred Miles of Ancient Nights, You Can Know the Han Family (I)

"Ah, if that's the case, then the envoy of Tianzhu won't have to go to great lengths to find the cow in the white.

Since they have a tradition of using this recipe, it is not expected that they can just find a random cow.

If the cow is not healthy, it will be even more deadly. ”

Although Tao Hongjing has never been to Tianzhu, he has a deeper understanding of the nature of things, often in one sentence.

But Yao Sixia is still not worried about this matter,

"Originally, Mr. Huayang expected that it was not bad, and the white cows that Tianzhu could use were all sacred cows that had been offered.

Legend has it that the sacred cow can drown in gold, and drinking it is beneficial to strengthen the body, which has become a belief.

Therefore, I am afraid that even if the effect of this kelp is better, it will not persuade them. ”

"Oh? Sacred cow drowning gold?

Why is this plot so familiar?

Hey, I don't think it's better to tell them two stories,

Let's just say that this sacred cow originally didn't exist in China,

In the past, there was a thousand times like Capricorn who visited in every possible way, and only got a stone statue of a sacred cow.

This stone cow can dung gold, and dung gold turns water into longevity.

When the king of the adjacent mountain heard about it, he was willing to exchange the land for the sacred cow, send Wuding to open the mountain, welcome the sacred cow, and serve the king of the thousand times.

Later, the king of Shanhua really lived a long life, but he wanted to cross the sea to seek the fairy grass of Hai China, and it is said that eating does not fall into reincarnation.

But the heavens are jealous of the longevity, and the king of the mountains has been caught in the sea this time.

The ship capsized, the stone ox entered the sea, and it was no longer to be found.

But the seaweed began to grow in the area where the ship was wrecked.

It is said to be nourished by the stone cow dung gold in the sea, and its effect is the same as that of the sacred cow.

In our country, those who are weak, thick-necked, and difficult to eat oil and rice will be cured after eating. ”

Yao Sixia's eyes widened when he heard this, and he put together two irrelevant Central Plains allusions and said, isn't this a clear lie?

It's just ordinary times, it's just about diplomacy, it's no small matter,

If you poke out some basket, it's not your own dereliction of duty?

Just as he was hesitating, the King of Wei spoke,

"Since the Dao Sect asked you to say so, you can go and try it."

King Wei instructed, Yao Sixia naturally did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly went to negotiate with those Tianzhu guests like this.

Sure enough, it was not long before he came back with joy, and said that the animal trainers were very happy to hear these stories, and recited the scriptures with great devotion in their hands, and then swept them away, and did not dwell on the drowning of the ox except to praise the delicacies of the holy products.

Tao Hongjing smiled, naturally a little proud.

As the sect master of the Maoshan Sect, he was very familiar with these things on a daily basis.

He asked Yao Sixia to say this, not deliberately deceiving, nor did he claim to be a member of the Heavenly Empire, and he deliberately teased Fanbang.

It's just that he knows that those who don't pay attention to doctrinal texts and only like to pay attention to details and rituals are usually those groups with limited cognition.

Just like the people who are obsessed with drowning cattle in front of them, they are mainly those lowly animal trainers in the mission.

For this group, it doesn't make sense to talk about the real truth, they don't understand it at all.

In ancient times, there were no fine chemicals, and the prescriptions prescribed were all mysterious things, such as filial piety shirts and ash at the bottom of the pot......

How do you persuade people who don't know cause and effect to eat these things?

Then you can only rely on coaxing, relying on storytelling.

What kind of magic medicine fairy prescription, the five elements of yin and yang, the more mysterious the more people will obey you.

There were also many diseases that could not be cured at that time,

Don't say that at that time, modern medicine was also helpless against many incurable diseases.

But patients are expecting from you, and you can say that there is no cure?

Then you can only use some psychotherapy, drink some incense ash rune paper, and eat things that can't be dead, and leave it to fate.

After all, human immunity is still quite strong,

As long as you have the belief in life in your heart, you can survive many diseases on your own.

These are all his years of treatment experience.

Pretending to be a ghost is sometimes a communication need in the context of the times.

But later many of his disciples and grandchildren gave up their roots and went to the end,

I don't have much knowledge in my stomach, but I regard these pretending to be ghosts as my main skills, which ruins the reputation of the Maoshan Sect.

There are always some indignant youths who seem to exude a sense of justice all over their bodies, and after learning a little bit of the skill of learning from things, they think that there is nothing unknowable in the vastness of heaven and earth, and angrily denounce everything that they cannot understand as heresy.

These people usually stay at the level that they think that the filial piety shirt needs to be taken off from the filial son.

If it really reaches the level of Tao Hongjing, even if you hear that people want to drink cow urine, you can be invisible, and you must ask some details before you can make an in-depth judgment.

Human insight determines aura.

It's like that day when the gourd Cai Pavilion stayed in the Zu's Stargazing Pavilion, he was so frightened that he screamed, and finally almost escaped.

And Zu Xuanzhi saw Ji Zaixing playing the five qi dynasty yuan and condensing the cold ice palm into ice, but he was not moved at all, and he could still watch calmly until he found out what was wrong.

The same is in the face of new things, and the feedback is very different, which is the difference in heritage.

The banquet is opened, and the guests and hosts naturally want to exchange some customs between the two dynasties.

The chief envoy and the holy minister intended to show off, and while chatting, he talked about the astronomical calendar that he was good at.

King Wei snorted slightly, glanced at King Ren Cheng, tacitly understood each other, and then handed a color to Dufang, the letter that came overnight.

Xindu Fang immediately realized that few people could understand the miraculous skills he pondered on weekdays.

It's hard to find a friend who can listen to his serious explanations, let alone rivals who can discuss with each other.

At this time, the king of Wei intended to give him a chance, and he was naturally happy to act as a pawn, so he talked about his views on the stars and the calendar.

Seeing that the other party was just a child, the saint could not help but respect him.

However, at this time, they were still talking about some common sense things, so the holy minister only thought that Xin Dufang was well-informed at first.

Talking about this zodiacal division, Huaxia and Tianzhu are probably somewhat similar.

Unlike the Western zodiac, which divides the zodiac into 12 signs, the Central Plains generally takes the division of 28 houses.

But Tianzhu is a bit maverick in this regard, and chooses the singular division of twenty-seven.

Xin Dufang questioned this, and immediately proposed that the number 27 must have another mystery, otherwise it would be very troublesome in the production of observation instruments and astronomical calculations.

The dome is like a circle, and it is much more difficult to make a third division than a second division in terms of labeling.

Twenty-eight nights, taking the number of four images and seven yao,

First, the celestial dome is divided into four equal parts, and then the celestial dome is demarcated with seven celestial bodies that can be observed with the naked eye: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, sun, and moon.

Whether it is the naming of the twenty-eight nights or the production of the armillary sphere, it is like this.

And twenty-seven is the number of thirty-nine, and it takes three points and three points, if it is three,

If you want to make an astronomical observation instrument based on this, it is naturally much more difficult, and it is difficult to ensure accuracy.

As soon as these words came out, the saint's heart was shocked again.

Being able to count the zodiac constellations is nothing more than a point of knowledge, as long as someone teaches it, then it will be learned.

But it is not so simple to have your own views and opinions on the rules of segmentation.

The most important thing is that Xin Dufang's sentence greatly overshadowed Tianzhu's astronomical observation strength at that time.

Tianzhu does not have special celestial observation instruments like armillary spheres and Yuheng.

There are only some stargazing platforms that have been slightly improved from large observation structures such as the Yaowang Sun Observatory.

However, the so-called Twenty-Seven Sutras, as Xin Dufang said, are not the complete version of the division of the Tianzhu Zodiac.
