Chapter 146: Xuanniao Totem

When Su Ling heard this, he stretched out his hand and slapped him, "I stuffed him with a bag of gold leaves, but ......"

"Look at you! I have money to give away, but I don't have money! Crying and crying ~ ...... grievances" Pu Xing shouted when he pointed to Su Ling.

Seeing his shrewd appearance, Su Ling stretched out his hand and strangled his neck, "Be quiet for Lao Tzu!" The gold was made of poop and could only last for a few days, and now I can't use my demonic power anymore, so you can only steal it yourself! ”

Pu Xing was dejected when he heard this, "Although we have done a lot of stealing things, but, this, how can I look at so many people, I have no place to steal!" ”

Seeing this, Su Ling looked at the curtain under his eyes again, "In this way, where can I find you a guard here's clothes, and you can pretend to be a guard to go in." ”

"Guards? Is there still a fight? People don't know how to fight......" Pu Xingwen touched his face shyly.

There is Su Ling: "......"

It's quite easy to find clothes for Pu Xingwen, but with Su Ling on this upper body, I found that it was completely different from what I imagined, and the current Pu Xingwen was just a twelve-year-old child, and the skeleton was not something that a guard could hold up at all.

Su Ling is about to pick out his head when he sees it, why can't he find the identity of Pu Xingwen?

After thinking about it, I finally stumbled upon an iron cage.

Su Ling looked at the iron cage and looked back at Pu Xingwen, who couldn't even wear clothes, and his mind instantly flashed in his mind.

Then Su Ling went to find a set of slave clothes and threw them to Pu Xingwen.

"Oh, put it on! And so it went. ”

Pu Xing heard that the clothes in his hand were not only described with a confused face, "Sister? You're not going to sell me as a slave, are you......" No matter how you look at it, only Su Ling can come up with such a way.

"Of course not, it's just to send you in with this, hurry up, it's important to steal!"

Under the urging of Su Ling, Pu Xingwen quickly changed into a beggar's clothes, and Su Ling saw it and let him get into the cage, and then found someone from the money village to take a look.

Originally, he didn't agree that Su Ling would sell living people, but after hearing that the person in the cage was the prince of Fanguo outside Xinjiang, he suddenly changed his tone.

"If this one is sold, we'll get five floors," the man glanced at Pu Xingwen in the cage.

Su Ling was extremely embarrassed when he heard the table, "I spent a lot of money catching it, and you have to charge five layers of ......."

"Then you like to sell or not," the man said, waving his hand and making a gesture of leaving.

Seeing this, Su Ling hurriedly stopped him, gritted his teeth and said, "Sell!" I sell! If I hadn't been short of money, how could I have sold! ”

After Su Ling finished speaking, he whispered, "But is it safe for you to put your goods here?" I heard that there are people outside who are eyeing the goods here, but I have to confirm it in advance to rest assured, you also had an accident last time, and I am even more worried. ”

When the man saw Su Ling say this, he said, "If you want to go and see it, you can pay a deposit of 50,000 yuan first." ”

There is Su Ling: "...... it, you can't take a step without money, right?"

After thinking about it, he took out a bag of gold leaves from his pocket, "Well, there is no money, but there is still gold." Then he threw it to him.

The man saw that the bag was full of gold leaves, and even his tone was much gentler, and the dog's legs jumped up at once.

"Okay! Please follow me! With that, the man pulled the cage and lifted the curtain.

Su Ling walked in after him, and there were indeed more than a dozen people behind him.

After Su Ling glanced at the dazzling array of things in the entire warehouse, he finally set his eyes on a Xuanniao totem.

There was once a Xuanniao poem: "The Xuanniao of Destiny descends to give birth to business, and the house is full of earth." The ancient emperor ordered martial arts, and the four sides of the domain were in the right domain. After Fang was killed, there were nine deaths. Shang Zhi successively, ordered not to die, in Wu Ding's grandson. Wu Ding's grandson, King Wu is invincible. The dragon is ten times, and the big gluten is the inheritance. Banggi is thousands of miles, the people of Weimin stop, and the territory is all over the world. The four seas come to fake, come to fake Qi Qi. Jingyuan Wei River. Yin was ordered to be Xianyi, what is Bailu. ”

Among them, the Heavenly Mandate Xuanniao, which will give birth to Shang, is the most worthy of study, and it is said that the ancestor of the Shang Dynasty is Xuanniao.

There is a legend in Lixian County that "three women compare their bodies": "Three women are naked after the haystack in the field to see whose body is white and tender."

A merchant passed by and saw it, and had a treacherous heart, so he emptied an egg with words written on it, and secretly threw the word egg down on a high place, and the woman below picked it up and saw that there was a word, and saw that there was no one around, and knew that it fell from the sky.

At this time, the merchant shook the merchant's drum and pretended to pass by, and the woman asked the merchant's brother what was written on the egg? The merchant said that God told the woman to sleep with him, if he didn't sleep, he would be hit by five thunderbolts from the sky, and the three women were afraid of God's punishment, so they slept with the merchant.

This legendary merchant is the 'merchant', the 'three women compare the body' is the 'three-person bath', and the 'throwing egg' is 'falling his egg'. The ancient word 'rape' is three women. The merchant is a 'profiteer', and vice versa.

This legend was passed down by the Qin people in order to distinguish it from the birth of the Shang people. One is good and one is evil. It is clearly embellished in the "Historical Records".

There is also a legend that on the shore of the Yellow River in ancient times, Jian Di traveled by chance with the two sisters of the clan, bathed in the water of Xuanqiu, and a bird flew to give birth to a bird's egg.

When the deed grew up, because of his meritorious work in helping Dayu control the water, he was appointed as Situ by Emperor Shun, in charge of education, sealed in the commercial land, and given the surname. Qi, that is, Yan Bo, is the legendary ancestor of Shang.

According to the description of "The Book of Songs: Long Hair", Qi has both a mighty image and a resolute character, and he knows the national conditions of the countries well.

He followed the etiquette system and carried out the orders and prohibitions, all of which kept the young Shang clan safe and sound despite many political turmoil. Qi has special political qualifications, and in the process of controlling the water, he has almost achieved the same great achievements and high reputation as Dayu.

However, Dayu has a strong tribal power, and Qi almost came to the business land alone, leading a group of natives who are still in the barbaric stage to establish a new Fang country.

Therefore, on the one hand, he wants to make Yu eliminate the suspicion that he may have, and on the other hand, he must carefully take care of his own frontier, so that Fang Guo will gradually become stronger in stability, so as to achieve long-term peace and stability. Therefore, at the historical turning point of Yu Chuanzi and the world, the Deed and Shang tribes chose to obey.

In the development of the Shang tribe, they experienced a process of continuous migration, from the deed to the soup, a total of 14 generations, and they moved their Fang country eight times.

The Shang clan was originally a side branch of Dongyi, with birds as the totem of the clan. The so-called "Destiny Xuanniao, descending and giving birth to business", is derived from the totem worship of the Yi bird.

According to the research of today's people, Shang is a nation with birds as totems, and the legend of "the difference between pheasants" is not unrelated to the myth of "the Divine Destiny Xuanniao, descending to give birth to Shang". The "Heavenly Destiny Xuanniao, descending to give birth to Shang" is the most precious early literature about the origin of Shang.

Legend has it that Shang's ancestral deed was born after his mother, the daughter of the Youlu clan, swallowed a bird's egg.

Totem worship is an ancient form of religion that arose from the primitive clan society, which is to associate the generation of the clan with a certain animal or plant, believe that there is a blood relationship between one's own clan and it, and then regard it as the ancestor, protector or mark of one's clan.

But now the witchcraft and totem worship of the entire Qin Dynasty are linked, and it seems that the emperor is still able to keep the whole country in such an orderly manner without the assistance of any loyal ministers, and the speculation behind this is self-evident.

Qin witchcraft prevailed and the emperor turned a blind eye, but with Su Ling's investigation, he also secretly helped the implementation of witchcraft among the people, it can be said that in the use of witchcraft superstition, the emperor is the biggest promoter, including the previous said, it is necessary to use witchcraft to control the politics of the entire country.

"According to the account of the king of the ancestors, Xian is based on benevolence, righteousness and righteousness, and there is no strange and absurd thing. …… Nowadays, all the clever and clever people who are clever and clever have enriched books, pretended to be memorable, in order to deceive the greedy and evil, and mislead the master, but they can not suppress the distance! The minister Tan Fu heard that His Majesty's poor folding of the Fangshi's yellow and white skills was very clear; And if you want to listen to the prophecy, what is wrong! Although there are times and times, it is like a few even and so on. Your Majesty should listen to it clearly, send out the holy will, say the small songs of the Ping Qun, describe the justice of the Five Classics, slightly similar sayings, and understand the elegance of people in detail. ”

There were also many wise men in the Qin State who proposed it, but most of them were to no avail, and they were even sent to the heavenly prison because of this.

The popular proverb is a kind of text with an obscure meaning, a small number of words, and a predictive ability, and at the same time can refer to a book that records this kind of writing.

"Confucianism" is a combination of Confucian scholars who interpret and compare Confucian classics from a theological point of view.

On the other hand, the "study of the Confucian classics" mystified and religiousized, linked certain accidental phenomena in nature with human social politics, and explained them as political guidance.

It is a kind of traditional culture, which is the product of the combination of ancient superstition, science and culture.

The culture is a complex system that encompasses many aspects such as philosophy, history, religion, literature, and folklore. From today's point of view, it is just a political means and a political symbol in the ancient feudal period, but it has special significance in ancient times.

"Prophecy" is a kind of prophecy or hidden word with evidence, which is often pretended to be the will of God to speak of good fortune and misfortune, and is the product of superstition, which was created by ancient sorcerers or priests under the pretense of the will of heaven to deceive and deceive the masses and serve the feudal ruling class.

Su Ling had seen a lot of things about the so-called future prediction in the New Human World to promote politics, but this country seemed to be controlled by more than witchcraft and academics, and the chaos in it was not something that Su Ling could imagine.

Feudal superstitious activities refer to the relevant activities carried out by gods, witches, fortune tellers, feng shui gentlemen, and other people who deceive people with feudal superstitious thoughts and behaviors under the influence of this kind of thinking, including drawing lots, divination, fortune telling, physiognomy, character measurement, helping people, inviting gods, exorcising ghosts, looking at feng shui, and curing diseases with water.

The content of the proverb involves "celestial official ephemeris, disaster induction, prophecy talismans, astronomy and geography, textual exegesis, exorcism and evil spirits, fairy magic, myths and fantasies, etc."

The content of the prophecy is very complicated: there are those who interpret the scriptures, those who talk about astronomy, those who talk about the calendar, those who talk about gods, those who talk about geography, those who talk about historical events, those who talk about writing, and those who talk about the canonical system. Although it involves a wide range of aspects, it is simple in nature.

The purpose of today's emperor is to use this means to achieve the effect of controlling politics, but although the performance is obvious, but in a practical sense, no one dares to admonish directly, so in a certain sense, the emperor is actually more evasive, in other words, rather than only avoiding, more should also use this to test how many people care about his throne.

And the significance of the Xuanniao totem in the Qin State is also to be immortal, although I don't know where it originated, but this effect is like the first emperor for the emperor, looking around for something that can make him immortal.

Before Su Ling came here, he heard that the emperor had done a lot of things to lose his conscience in order to live forever.

The emperor listened to the advice of a witch named Xiao Gu, and used a man's gall as a medicine to take one a day to ensure longevity and immortality. And he listened to this, so that in just two years, hundreds of slaves (outside the country) were innocently killed, and the emperor took these potions and his health deteriorated, and suspecting that the prescription was fake, ordered the witch Xiao Gu Wanma to be trampled to death.

I also heard a sorcerer's advice to use women's menstruation to alchemy, which must have an effect, so the palace maids suffered again, in order to ensure the "purity" of menstrual blood, the palace maids were asked not to eat or drink in the days of menstruation!

And this demand, countless palace maids fell ill and starved to death, but it was still useless, so the emperor's temperament that was blocked by Chengxian Road changed greatly, and the concubines and palace maids beat and scolded at every turn, without mercy, and the palace maids with low status directly became his punching bag, and if it didn't go well, he would be brutally tortured!

In order to please Qin Shi Huang, Xu Fu said that there are three immortal mountains in the East China Sea, Penglai, Abbot and Yingzhou, and the mountains are inhabited by immortals, and they can seek the elixir of immortality. When Qin Shi Huang heard this, he was overjoyed, so he decided to spend a lot of money to send Xu Fu to lead thousands of boys and girls to go to the sea by boat to find the immortal mountain and ask the immortals for the elixir of life.

And Su Ling had seen it in the book before.

Around 100 BC, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also came to the hometown of Qi. There are tens of thousands of monks and magical immortal formulas here, but none of them can verify immortality. However, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was still obsessed, and on the sea, he held ceremonies to worship the eight gods of God, the landlord, the human lord, the yin lord, the yang lord, the moon lord, the sun lord, and the four seasons lord. When the ship reached Penglai Island, one of the ministers said that he saw a man several feet tall, but when he got closer, the giant was gone. Immediately afterwards, someone said that he also saw an old man leading a dog and was about to report to the emperor, but when he turned around, the old man was gone. So everyone, including Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, said in unison: "This is Penglai Immortal." After that, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent thousands of envoys to seek immortals, but they all found nothing.

How many emperors did the most things that violated the morality of life for the sake of illusory immortality, but how many people could understand the truth.

This is like Su Ling said, only because people's lives are short, they want to have hope for longevity, but everything is in vain, isn't it, people's lives have a limit, just like the shelf life of food, if he is limited to a certain time, if he wants to change, it will be against the sky.

Although the gods of heaven cannot control the people on earth, everything must be arranged according to the mandate of heaven, and no one can escape, let alone get lucky.

And now, the current emperor of Qin is no longer the emperor who was bent on governing the country in an orderly manner, and intrigue and suspicion erode the whole mind.

Under this kind of notice, it is inevitable that some of the management of the whole country will be unbalanced, and it is very easy to take this opportunity to realize the entire complete ruling system that overthrows the Qin State.

There are not a few people who have offended the Qin State in recent years, and only by being deeply involved can we understand what is actually seen on the surface, the Qin State has strong military and material resources, in fact, they all rely on the exploitation of the common people, in the final analysis, after the implementation of the law that killing outsiders can be exchanged for food, the whole country seems to have increased its force, in fact, in a certain direction, most of the Qin State's military strength at this level comes from the helpless people.

However, the increase in force is only a matter of a short period of time, and in the long run, although the method of increasing tax revenue can increase the strength of the people of the entire country for a while, in the long run, it will face the misery of the people, and the way to survive by killing people may face two extreme results in the long run.

One is that the people of the country collectively rise up to resist, and the other is that the people do not resist, but the experience of the whole country is depressed.

However, what makes it difficult for Su Ling to be the same is the superstition that has taken root in the entire Qin State for decades or even hundreds of years, and what kind of organization is behind it.

But then, the Xuanniao totem has Su Ling, but he came up with a feasible or very strong way to govern the politics of the Qin Emperor who was promoted by witchcraft and superstition.

The emperor cares nothing more than the question of who has the political power in his hands, but at the feet of the Son of Heaven, although the problem of public security can be guaranteed, there are still many problems to be solved in practical problems.

It's just that in the long run, most people are suppressed, and there is no spirit of resistance, and if you want to talk about it, there is only one chance to make people see hope.
