Wedge: The establishment of the Immortal Cultivation Method
In ancient times, King Wu of Zhou raised troops to fight against the Emperor, and the Daomen Yuxu Palace helped out. On the day of success, Jiang Ziya was listed as a god, and on the land of China, the cultivation of immortals reached its peak, and at the same time, this was also the beginning of the conflict between monarchy and divine power.
Four hundred years later, the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty was Haojing, and the last monarch Ji Gongyan stood in a beacon fire, looking coldly at the devastated old imperial capital. Outside the palace city, there was a flickering of the mysteries of the Taoism, and from time to time there were arrows shuttling by, he sneered, his sleeve robe was raised, and the golden palace suddenly burst into flames, and his lonely and desolate figure slowly disappeared into the sea of fire.
After another 400 years, the Great Zhou Dynasty of the Ji family finally fell apart. The land of China ushered in the Warring States Period, and hundreds of schools of thought competed with each other, giving birth to countless heroic epics that can be sung and cried.
......
In Xianyang, the Great Qin court, the foreign warlock Lu Sheng brought back a copy of the "Recorded Books" from overseas, and later privately ridiculed the First Emperor and fled without seeing; Xu Fu sent an overseas mission with the will of the Son of Heaven to seek immortality, but finally there was no news, Qin Shi Huang felt that Confucian scholars were useless, and issued an order to burn books and pit Confucianism.
"Your Majesty, Warlock Waidao!" Li Si followed behind Qin Shi Huang, who was dressed in black robes, and said earnestly: "But the sin of sitting together is really..."
The First Emperor was expressionless, and Lu Sheng and Xu Fu disappeared overseas, which was a place where the power of the Son of Heaven could hardly touch. But if he dares to do such a deceitful thing, it is needless to say that the crime is extremely evil, and if he thinks deeply, who gave them the courage?
"Li Si," Qin Shi Huang said slowly, "I know that you are from a Confucian family, do you know what the consequences will be if you continue to talk about it?"
Liston stopped talking, his back court clothes were instantly soaked with cold sweat, and he could only watch the winning surname Zhao go farther and farther.
After Qin Shi Huang unified the Seven Kingdoms, his wisdom and sharpness increased instead of decreasing, and the imperial ambition was vividly reflected in him, and at the same time, the monarch's heart became more and more unpredictable. Li Si didn't dare to gamble with his life and wealth, because he knew that the king in black robe was indifferent enough.
Hu Ji has been given death, and this proverb on the "Book of Records" is simply a joke, so how much credibility does Lu Sheng have in the eyes of the First Emperor? How much value can this so-called "book of prophecy" he brought back be in Ying Zheng's heart?
However, Confucianism is different, and protégés and peachies are all over the world, and there are a few families who do not know the names of Confucian sages and sages? This burning pit order, not to mention the turmoil in the government and the opposition for the time being, under the same hatred of the enemy, how strong should the backlash of the major forces of the hundreds of schools of thought be! Li Si could not imagine it, and he could not understand at all what the purpose of the first emperor's move was, he only knew that Yingzheng would never give up a forest because of a tree, and no emperor would not.
It turns out that the emperor is indeed an unpredictable existence. King Zhou You was like this back then, and so is Qin Shi Huang today. When the evil act of burning books and pit Confucianism spread all over the world, Li Si knew that Qin Shi Huang really wanted to be the enemy of the world.
Finally, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rebelled, the overlord of Western Chu rose, the first emperor died, the Great Qin died, and Liu Bang, who did not learn and did not know how to do it, inexplicably won the world, everything was so logical, no one noticed the weirdness, or rather, the weirdness was only in the undercurrent, if you don't say it, I won't say it, that's it.
The glory of the dynasty always seems to be unable to last, and after another four hundred years, the Han Dynasty will be crumbling. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Bei finally saw Wolong Kong Ming, and he longed to restore the Han dynasty, but the faint uneasiness in his heart told him that things were not so simple.
"Why did Kong Ming teach me?" In the thatched house, in the face of the prestigious Zhuge Wolong, Liu Bei was humble and polite.
Zhuge Liang sighed lightly, from the moment Liu Bei stepped into the grass house, he knew that it was already delusional to stay out of the matter.
"Uncle Liu Huang is not strange," Kong Ming said with a bitter face, "Don't you hear that when you are three years old and look old, how can you not know about the king's family?"
Liu Bei nodded, of course he knew that there was no dynasty that didn't want its own rule for thousands of generations, and no parent couldn't see through their children, but since this was the case, how could the tyrants of all dynasties explain it?
Kong Ming sighed again and said, "The ambition of the Emperor's House has never been more than the hearts of the people in the territory.
"What do you mean by this?" Liu Bei asked.
"As far as the king can reach, the whole world, the shore of the land, and the world of one family. In the world, there are Confucianism and law, chivalry and martial arts, and there are thousands of immortal Taoist laws, although the world is good, but the food is boring, what is the difference between it and a puppet?"
After a little silence, Kong Ming said again: "There are heavenly saints above, and there are emperors and monarchs. If only the people of Li are reduced to bits and pieces, then the bad is that the gods and great sages are unwilling to be lonely, and what emperor is willing to make wedding dresses for others?"
When Liu Bei heard this, he thought about it slightly, thinking of the Xuanmen teaching and assisting Zhou in the past, and suddenly became enlightened, it turned out that this world and this truth were so cruel?
Taking the world as a game and the lives of the people as chess, the so-called emperor of the world is just a powerful chess piece, and he is unwilling to be such a chess piece.
"Since the gentleman is willing to see me, he should have the consciousness of lifting the heavens for the people," Liu Bei said: "If there is wolf smoke everywhere today, how similar is it to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period? This method of breaking the deadlock is really old-fashioned, and if it goes on like this, it is nothing more than a cycle of separation and integration, what is the crime of the poor people in the world?"
Kong Ming's eyes were gloomy, he couldn't be clearer, the emperor's family was not without mercy and benevolence to the people of Limin, but in the midst of self-care, these dispensable things were afraid that they would have been ground up in the endless struggle, none of them were fools, and if they didn't disrupt and reorganize the world, how could they hide behind the scenes?
"Bei pleads, sir, make the decision for the people of Dawn!" Liu Bei's eyes were blazing, and he stared at him tightly: "If I succeed, the world will abide by the law, and no living beings here can be violated!"
Zhuge Liang pondered for a long time, and his rare blood boiled, if he can really achieve this great cause, it will not be in vain in this life!
"Good!"
......
Thousands of years later, the dynasties have changed, and one after another faint monarchs have ruined their own good country, this world has always been a chess game, but the chess pieces are more and more unwilling to surrender, in an unknown battlefield, throwing their heads and spilling blood, chasing the so-called freedom.
Finally in modern times, after countless unknown tragic struggles, the cultivation of immortals is a legend that does not know the truth or falsehood in the eyes of ordinary people, and people's lives seem to have been as Liu Bei said: the world abides by the law, and no living beings here can be violated!
