Chapter 126: The Godslayer
Both of these murals are clearly scenes of killing, as the entire mural is rendered in red, and on them, countless soldiers with weapons in their hands are engaged in battle with the people on the other side.
No, that's not a person, that's a snake person, from the picture, you can see the two huge snake-body beauties, their upper body is female, and the lower body, you can see a big snake body.
And the two of them occupy one-third of the mural, and the rest of the place are small soldiers, and their bodies are really tall.
"These two people should be the green snake and the white snake." Zhang Shihong said suddenly.
We glanced back at him, and he just smiled and said: "This is just a kind of reasoning, we saw it in the ancient city of Yinshan before, when those two demons were helping Zhao Kuangyin, according to the mural painting just now, Zhao Guangyi seized the country, so naturally he can't tolerate these two demons." ”
I nodded, his reasoning was really good, and in some corners of the picture, you can still see the style of the palace, which shows that this battle is not happening outside at all, but in the court.
"Isn't that the equivalent of killing gods? After all, these two demons were sent by God. When Lu Xiaodan heard this, he said, "Brother Wen, what do you think?" ”
She actually asked me, I am not Zhao Guangyi at that time, how do I know, why don't you ask your brother Shihong, really.
I haven't spoken yet, but Zhang Shihong took it and said: "Sort of, I'm afraid Zhao Guangyi is going to get rid of people and things that may pose a threat to him this time, after all, it is also recorded in the history books that after he ascended the throne, Zhao Kuangyin's children and grandchildren were almost killed by him." ”
"It's really ruthless." Brother Long also walked over.
"The famous emperors in history, which is not the emperor's mental technique, what is this." Fourth Master Wang answered on the side.
I saw Lu Xiaodan glance at him, but this was not wrong, so I didn't object.
But I always felt that something was wrong, so I asked: "Alas, Brother Shihong, you said that since Zhao Guangyi made such a thing, why didn't you see any rumors, and there was no record in the history books?" ”
"Brother Wen asked this question well, it's hard to say." Zhang Shihong smiled and continued: "Maybe there is something to hide, or there are other problems. ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the other side.
It's also a mural over there, but it's much calmer to look at.
I walked over and took a look, and this was a very strange picture, as if a man who looked like a scholar was handing out books to everyone.
It felt a lot like the beginning of the semester when I used to go to school.
Every then, a teacher will give out a new book, of course, the new book will only last for a short time, and then all kinds of destruction and graffiti.
In addition, I am not a good student, so my books are also the dirtiest and messy in the class.
But the Song Dynasty began to issue books at that time, what is the situation.
I looked back at Zhang Shihong, these things, he was more familiar with, but he was not there, but had already squatted in front of the stone tablet and translated.
I had to shrug my shoulders.
"Brother Wen, what are you doing here, it looks like a book." Zhang Siqiao's gentle voice came.
I nodded, and I wasn't the only one who thought so.
"Why do you want to distribute books, when education is already universal?" Lu Xiaodan grabbed the topic.
That's a good question, I don't know, but I still know more or less, and universal education is a long time before it happens.
In the Song Dynasty, although the overall cultural level was okay, universal education was still not enough, and this aspect can be seen from some books describing the Song Dynasty.
The most famous is probably the Water Margin, right? Of the one hundred and eight generals, a few were educated, and most of them were illiterate.
Therefore, it is impossible to popularize education, and although the printing technology at that time had been formed, it still could not reach the speed of today's machine processing, so it was simply impossible.
And looking at the people who received the books on the other side, they were also some literati, could it be that they were going to carry out the imperial examination?
But it's not like it, I just can't understand it anyway.
"Brother Wen, what are you thinking?" Lu Xiaodan's hand shook in front of my eyes.
I shook my head and said, "I didn't think about anything, I was just thinking, if I were Zhao Guangyi, what would be the most important thing to do after doing so many things?" ”
"Killing all political enemies, of course."
"Now that they've been killed and all the messengers of God have been eliminated, there shouldn't be any problem, right?" I glanced at Lu Xiaodan.
Unexpectedly, she actually thought about it with her heart, and then clapped her hands and said, "That's the legitimacy that erects me." ”
I was stunned for a moment, but these words reminded me that Zhao Guangyi in history is also legitimate, according to historical records, he got the will of the Queen Mother, and inherited the throne after Zhao Kuangyin's sudden death.
Wait, aren't they sending out books, but advertisements?
Of course, this is just an example, looking at the person who sent the book, and the literati on the other side, I suddenly realized that this was most likely a large-scale brainwashing.
"I'm done." Just as he was about to say something, Zhang Shihong behind him shouted.
This is definitely the phrase we want to hear the most.
A few of us immediately surrounded us, and Zhang Shihong said at this time: "What do you think will be written here?" ”
"Brother Shihong, I don't take you like this." Lu Xiaodan said a little coquettishly, "If you have something to say, let's talk about it, we don't have much time." ”
Zhang Shihong glanced at her helplessly.
"Could it be that where we are now, is the palace staff? And he also assisted Zhao Guangyi in the succession propaganda? ”
As soon as he said this, Zhang Shihong's eyes changed when he looked at me: "How do you know." ”
I could only point to the mural over there and say I guessed.
Zhang Shihong sighed and said: "That's right, you guessed it, it is written very clearly on this stone wall, saying that it is Zhou Shikai's scheme, widely bibliographed, and the name of the queen mother is on the throne, and the gods make the lower realm, and mortals marry and want to cover up the death." ”
"What does that mean?" I don't know much about him.
And there is no interface, it seems that everyone doesn't understand, of course, I believe that there are people who pretend not to understand, such as that Wang Siye, the old spirit and the old spirit.
It's strange that he doesn't understand, it's just that he may feel that he has an identity, so he just doesn't say it.
Zhang Shihong smiled and said: "The meaning is obvious, as you can see, this Zhou Shikai is a bull, he gave a strategy, let Zhao Guangyi print the book, and then distribute it to the readers, and then let them publicize it." ”
"Propaganda for what?"
"To publicize the legitimacy of Zhao Guangyi's succession, it was the Queen Mother's will to let him succeed to the throne, and then there are those two divine envoys, saying that they went down to the mortal world and married mortals, so they couldn't find it, so it is equivalent to an official succession, and it also covers up the death of the divine envoy." Zhang Shixing said.
"This guy is really smart." Brother Long opened his mouth, "In this way, there are people from above to support it, plus those two snakes have gone down to the mortal world, so ...... Hey. ”
When we said this, we all reacted, when Zhang Shihong said the divine messenger just now, we didn't feel anything, but now when Brother Long said snake, we felt a little familiar.
Isn't this the story of the White Snake? No, could it have already been written by then?
"Brother Long, you're kidding, how could there be a book about the White Snake at that time." Zhang Siqiao said.
"That's not it, but it has a story." Zhang Shihong pondered for a moment, and then said: "That's right, the stories at that time were all fragments, that is to say, after they printed these things, they distributed them below, so that the people below continued to spread them, and after a long time, various forms of storytelling and other forms will naturally be formed, so that a complete story will be formed in the later stage." ”
I kind of completely understand that this is a complete brainwashing, but it started with the emperor, and he changed everything into a statement, so that the people below continue to spread it.
"I now know why this King of Huaiyang must die, and why his three cronies are martyred." I sighed.
I felt that everyone's eyes were on me, so I said: "They also know too much, kill the emperor, the king of Huaiyang is present, do propaganda, this staff is present again, although the general Zhichong doesn't know why, but I think he should also know something." ”
"When he killed the emperor, he must have played a role, otherwise there are only two people, Zhao Guangyi and King Huaiyang, it is impossible to succeed, after all, there are also Praetorian Guards in the palace." Brother Long added.
That's right, that general Zhichong may have been sealed later, at the beginning, it is very likely that he was a guard in the palace, or just a small leader.
Because you can feel from his skills, he is a master, but if he kills the enemy, his moves are a bit complicated.
Then if it is said that it is a guard, it is reasonable to explain, he killed the emperor with Zhao Guangyi and the king of Huaiyang, such a person does not die, I am really sorry for the emperor's mental tricks.
I sneered, this is the former court, and it is really dark enough.
Brother Long clapped his hands and said, "Everyone, it's useless to think about these things here, right?" Shall we go down? ”
I turned my head to look at Brother Long and nodded, that's right, this is the right thing.
Only then did Brother Long go up and find the stone gate on the front.
We entered the passage again.
My mind immediately turned, this time we entered the place of a staff, I don't know what it would be, whether it was also a living dead corpse.
That's boring, I already know where the weakness of this thing is, and it's never so simple.
Brother Long in front of him stopped, then pointed to the side and said, "This time's arrangement." ”
I turned my head to look over, and this time it was the fox in front, and the nine-tailed cat in second, and the flying fish in the end.
It's understandable that the fox is taking the lead, why am I second? I glanced at the pattern, my weakest one, the second one followed up, isn't this a bit of a death-seeking?
