Chapter 396: The Grand Meeting (1)

"Ten days later, there will be a sacrificial meeting of the Shanyue clan - something must happen at this meeting? Childe, let's go and see together, maybe this batch of your goods can still be sold at a good price? Hehe-" Yu Ji walked a few cottages after leaving Yanjiazhai, he was dressed as a Taoist priest and had the ability to do it, and after careful investigation, he also saw that this Yan Baihu was the source of turmoil, looking at the world without quarrel but secretly meddling in cottage things, this person has ambitions and great ambitions! Knowing this, he went to Zhou Yu to report the situation, and along the way, he also heard a news that the sacrificial meeting of the Shanyue clan was about to start.

Zhou Yu knows that in this era, including his era, every famous ethnic group has its own unique beliefs and totems, for example, we are the Han people, the descendants of Yan and Huang, the five-clawed golden dragon is our totem, and we are the descendants of the dragon. The Hongdong locust tree makes our roots, and wherever we go, we are all yellow-skinned and black-eyed Chinese. Since the Shang Dynasty, various gods have begun to appear in powder, and the establishment of religion is the belief and reverence of the gods, and the formation of religious belief is the crystallization of human subjective thinking. Since Pangu opened the world, it has turned into mountains, rivers, sun, moon and stars, and countless birds and beasts have been born to make the earth full of vitality, at this time there is no faith and writing at all, as long as there is a disagreement between each tribe, the landslide and the ground crack, knowing that the Shang Dynasty began to appear Nuwa Temple, Nuwa Niangniang mending the sky and creating people are the supreme merits of the human mother, although the predecessor of Nuwa Niangniang is the head of the human snake body, but it is indeed the ancestor of the people who are missed. Later, in the last years of the Shang Dynasty, in order to compete for the faith of human beings, there were three sects to sign and seal the god list, that is to say, in addition to Nuwa Niangniang's, there were six people with supreme supernatural powers, namely, the people of the Taishang Laojun expounded the teaching, the Yuan Shi Tianzun, the sect master, the master of the Tongtian sect, the Buddhist guide to the Taoist, and the quasi-Taoist person. At that time, except for the Nuwa Temple, the Dragon Mother Temple, and the Dragon King Temple, other people did not enjoy the human offering at all. They all teach the world to do good deeds and accumulate virtue with their different teachings, and such a world is a paradise on earth. After the end of the list of gods, the three hundred and sixty-five gods in the heavenly court can enjoy the four seasons of worship in the world, including the rise of Taoist temples and temples, all of which began to sweep the land of China.

However, because the natural environment and social life are very different from those in the Central Plains, a unique belief structure has been formed in this region. The religious beliefs of the Shanyue people obviously retain the relics of totem worship, worship the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth, and prevalent ancestor worship. The Shanyue people live in the mountains and forests, and they take the bird totem as a protective god, and the bird is deified and worshiped by the Shanyue people. There is a legend of "Bird Field" in the land of Shanyue, according to some documents, "the people of the Dayue Sea, only with Bird Field, small and big are different, advance and retreat, and do not make themselves". The Yue people have a mysterious feeling for birds, their patriarch or sacrificial will often hold a bronze dove staff in their hands, the top of the staff head stands a dove, short pecking head and tail, full of feathers, wings ready to fly. The Shanyue people worship this bird as a god, and Zhou Yu also knows a little, but the sacrifice in Yu Ji's mouth is not related to this?

"Uncle Shi - what's so nice about a sacrificial meeting? Could it be a sacrifice to the bird god? I don't know if I'm right? Zhou Yu tried to say his thoughts, his biggest gain this time was that Shang Yi looked pretty good, as a suitable candidate for the Shanyue clan, as for Yan Baihu, who had never met, he looked like an ambitious person, although Yan Baihu in the romance later also surrendered to Sun Quan, but this person was able to make such a big move, if they didn't have the intention to find out, maybe Shanyue would really cut him out.

"Childe - I don't know, the address of the sacrificial meeting is on Nanliang Mountain near Shajiazhai every year, and the important people of the 36 villages will go there for seven days, and these seven days can be said to be the exchange of goods between men and women in the village, the exchange of goods, the sale of goods, etc., and the security of this year's sacrifice is in charge of Yanjiazhai. Yan Jiazhai Yan Baihu has no quarrel with the world, but his behavior is very suspicious, and now the head of the Shanyue clan, Sha Yi, died violently, it is possible that this time the sacrifice will elect a new patriarch, if you want to stabilize the situation in Shanyue, this patriarch is very important for us, maybe this is also an opportunity! I plan to sneak in first to see what the situation is, you still have to look in the name of the firm, if there is a suitable candidate, then look for one, if you want to compete for the position of the patriarch, you have to go through a competition-" Yu Ji said in detail the matters of the sacrificial conference, since he promised to help Zhou Yu, then he had to gain Zhou Yu's trust, first of all, he told the news that Yan Baihu had a problem, and now he volunteered to go to the sacrificial conference to find out the inside story, but as a Taoist priest, it will not be too dazzling to enter the sacrificial conference, Although the sacrificial event is presided over by people from the clan, it also needs respected guests to support the venue.

"In this way, there is Uncle Lao-" Zhou Yu did not tell Yu Ji the news of the withdrawal of the Shanyue army, the Shanyue army was killed by Guo Jia thousands of people, it can be said that it was a heavy loss, and now Guo Jia is leading 20,000 troops to close Shanyue step by step, and the policy discussed by the two of them is to take the camp step by step, and then requisition the people in Yangzhou to start cutting down trees and building roads from Huiji County, if you want to conquer Shanyue, you have to build the road to his doorstep, and see if they dare to talk to themselves at that time! This road repair is also very simple, that is, the original road into Shanyue is widened, and all the excess trees around are cut down, which is also suitable for Guo Jia's large army march, even if Shanyue wants to ambush, it is impossible. The mountains near the Shanyue clan are very high, and the ambush on the top of the mountain can't take care of the movement of the mountain road, as long as they reach the outside of the merchant village, they have to make the Shanyue clan start to bow their heads.

Now Yu Ji took the initiative to ask Ying to be able to serve as an internal response, and he still went to contact Shang Yi on his side, if this person was willing, he could help Shang Yi become the patriarch, whether it was a competition or a competition, he Zhou Yu could take it down. Now the only thing he is worried about is whether Yanjiazhai will use poison, Zhou Yu does not have such a master here, if Yanjiazhai is in trouble at the same time, it is indeed impossible to prevent -

"My lord, are you worried about the poison of Yanjiazhai? Before this came, the military advisor had already expected that he had asked us to buy some medicinal materials in advance to detoxify! We only need to eat and drink with living water, so it's not a big problem, but the next village is Yanjiazhai, should we not go around it for the time being? Zhang Shiping saw Zhou Yu's worries, Zhou Yu was also very distressed that he didn't know how to heal, and he couldn't kill all the people in Yanjiazhai, although the current toxin was not too strong, but the taste of his life in the hands of others was still uncomfortable, Guo Jia had heard that there were people in Shanyue who were good at using poison, just in case he made preparations in advance.

"Yanjiazhai! Yan Baihu! The White Tiger wants to eat people? He doesn't have such a good mouth yet, so he is not in a hurry to wait for the Shanyue army to withdraw to see the situation——"
