Chapter 113: The Road to Rebirth

Welcome to Guanshu Network:

The entire altar is three meters high, divided into three layers, the whole shape is trapezoidal, all made of huge granite structure, the layout is very tight, and the gaps in the stone cannot even insert the blade.

On the lowest altar, there is a bronze tray utensil, about a meter long, and there is a depression in the middle, as if it is used to hold something, Cha Wenbin stepped on this altar and found that the dust on it has been full, and it seems that no one has used it for a long time.

Ascending the stairs, there is the second level, the altar in the middle, where a bronze statue about two meters high stands. The protruding eyes, the wide earlobes and the big mouth that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, this is the same as the person carved on the bronze coffin, I really don't know if the ancestors here look like this, or if there are other exaggerated elements. The important thing is that the hands of this bronze statue are wrapped forward, Cha Wenbin took a closer look, and what should have been held between his two palms was supposed to be holding something, but now it has become hollow. Around the portrait are some ritual vessels, more basin-shaped vessels, which are more or less black impurities, scraped with the tip of a knife to take a look, and sure enough, it is blood!

It seems that this is the place of the blood sacrifice, there are no steps up, and on the top floor, a bronze tree about ten meters high stands solemnly and gorgeously in the center. The shape of the tree is very unique, with the trunk as the fulcrum, divided into upper, middle and lower three sections, each section is arranged in turn with three branches, each branch is perched with a bird, each bird has a copper bell in its mouth, the branches are bare, and there is no leaf decoration. Cha Wenbin compared the branches he took from Mochizuki in his hand, except for the bird on the branch and the copper bell, both the shape and the carved pattern are very similar, but the volume is much smaller. Those branches, the big ones are five or six meters, and the small ones are two or three meters, but this one in his hand is a little nondescript. However, he still knew too little about this kind of thing, so he turned around and shouted, "Old Wang, come and take a look." ”

When Lao Wang climbed the second step with the help of Cha Wenbin, he was deeply shocked by this incomparable bronze tree, and he couldn't speak for a long time, and it took a long time to hold back two words: "Miracle!" ”

"That's what you're looking for? A sacred tree that can open the door to the Three Realms? Cha Wenbin didn't think that this thing could penetrate the sky except for its shape, and in his eyes it might just be an old object.

Lao Wang gathered his eyes on the bronze statue again, he also saw the hole, after some comparison, Lao Wang boldly said his speculation, so that three thousand years ago here, was restored one by one.

Lao Wang took the branch in Cha Wenbin's hand, gestured and said: "There is also such a record in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas": "There is Fusang in the Tang Valley, and the bath is in the north of Moya. In the water, there is a big tree, which is on the lower branch for nine days, and the upper branch for one day. This means that in the Tokai Yutani, there is a sacred tree called Fuso, on which the ten suns live, and the three-legged black is carried on a rotating duty every day. Every time one sun rises, the other nine rest on the sacred tree, and now we only see nine birds, so where is the tenth bird? I'm afraid it's the sun wheel in your hand, Brother Wen Bin, suppose we take the sun wheel as the tenth bird, because the symbolic meaning of these birds is that in addition to the totem of the clan, it represents the sun, and they take turns to climb the highest branch to become the sun, so this bronze wheel is both the sun and the incarnation of the bird on duty. Then this branch should be the one at the top, which is the one that was broken by Hou Yi in the legend.

If we connect the tenth branch and hang the bronze wheel at the top, will we restore the original appearance of this sacred tree? ”

For those myths and legends, Cha Wenbin is not particularly cold, but what Lao Wang said does explain the relationship between this branch and the sun wheel, the sun wheel is the tenth bird, without it, the tree is not complete, then this altar will lose its meaning, after an epiphany Cha Wenbin said: "Then what do you think this tree is for?" ”

Lao Wang looked at the bronze statue and said, "There is only one explanation, this is a miracle, but we seem to be missing one thing, that is, the staff that Brother Wen Bin once held in his hand, can you tell me its origin?" ”。

As soon as Cha Wenbin heard the staff, he remembered the three-legged toad, is it okay now? "It was found in a cave after I fell down the waterfall, and it was a three-legged toad guarding it, and it was it that led me to the last cave where the jade coffin was buried. I used the staff to open a passage into it, and I thought it was a key, but it seemed that the staff had supreme rights to the ancestors here. ”

"Oh?" Lao Wang became interested, "How do you know?" ”

Cha Wenbin told Lao Wang about what he encountered in the passage, and then about the snow cedar boat and the golden mask.

Lao Wang connected these things together, and together with the information they had been studying in the organization and the information obtained by Whitebeard, a dynasty of 3,000 years ago was gradually restored by the two.

More than 3,000 years ago, the ancient Shu kingdom was in the legendary post-Yu Yu era, after the Yu Yu King returned to heaven, he was buried in the jade coffin, in order to resurrect after death, and the method he used was diametrically opposed to the former silkworm cong.

After the kings of the past dynasties completed the unification of the country, the pursuit of immortality was the only goal, and the most familiar to us is that Qin Shi Huang sent Xu Fu to the east to find medicine, which led to the later Japan.

The first generation of Shu King Silkworm Cong, combined with the magic of the Central Plains Taoism, according to the white beard, in the earlier days, there was a Central Plains Taoist who had come to Qifeng Mountain for a generation of activities, and after seeing the Qiang witchcraft of the earth-shattering ghosts and gods, he worshipped the door. It is impossible for the Han people to learn alien witchcraft, which is simply not agreed, but this Taoist priest promised to help the silkworm cong build a great array of rebirth with the feng shui of the Middle Earth Taoist, so that he can avoid the reincarnation of the Three Realms and live forever. In exchange, this person also exchanged the theoretical knowledge and Taoist essence of the Middle Earth Taoism, and the silkworm cong worshiped under the Tsing Yi Shenmen who was proficient in witchcraft with him, and after learning to go down the mountain, the Taoist had a complete Taoist theoretical system and unparalleled magic of gods and ghosts.

This Taoist perfectly combined this literature and martial arts, created a famous sect in Taoist history, and after his death, he was also ranked in the immortal class and became a generation of heavenly masters.

And our Shu King Silkworm Cong is full of pursuit of eternal life, setting up such a cumbersome and vicious array, and finally a living dead man will fall. In this way, the king of the fish must have learned that it was a failure, so he wanted to use a new way, as their descendant, the king of the fish chose the technique of the ghost path. By sacrificing one's own offspring and absorbing their souls to recreate a new self, from both perspectives, the rebirth of the self is based on the sacrifice of the people.

Let the fish live out of the water first, and then let the bird eat the big fish, symbolizing the unity of heaven and earth, the bird's blood already contains both, and then the jade coffin is stained with blood, and ten thousand souls are opened, and the ghost energy is condensed into its seven spirits, because these people are its descendants, and each dead soul has its memories recorded. And that scepter is the key to merging souls, and with it, the souls of the dead have found their purpose, reshaping the three souls and seven spirits of people in this unbelievable way.

These two methods, one is to hide with the Tao, and the other is to collect with gods and ghosts, which can be said to have brought their respective skills to the extreme.

At that time, the Uyo Kingdom was a society based on clans, and several clans constituted the whole of a kingdom. Each clan was led by a priest, and all the people of the clan obeyed him. After the death of the king of the fish, the whole kingdom was controlled by a high priest, the status of the high priest was equivalent to the emperor of the Central Plains at that time, he held the power of life and death of the entire kingdom, the economic lifeline and the political system, he is likely to be the owner of the snow cypress ship, for him, rebirth is also very important, he stole the scepter that was originally in the jade coffin, and used it as a symbol of power, to consolidate his position, which made the king of the fish in the remaining three thousand years, has not been able to be reborn.

But one day, the high priest suddenly fell ill and died, and this news was undoubtedly a big bad news for the ancient Shu Kingdom. Suddenly, the entire kingdom fell into a leaderless situation. In order to prevent foreign invasions and to reassure people, it was imperative to establish a high priest. The establishment of the high priest in the ancient Shu Kingdom was not like the Central Plains, which adopted the inheritance system, but the election system. This system is similar to our current people's congress election system, in which the country's leaders are elected by the masses. The right to elect the high priests of the ancient Shu Kingdom was concentrated in the hands of a few priests.

On an auspicious day for his inauguration, the new leader leads a series of ceremonies to announce his inauguration. So the people came here with their own tribesmen, and a grand ceremony was about to begin......
