Chapter 11: The Truth of Three Hundred Years Ago!
"Hehe, do you know how the Yu Dynasty fell?" Luo Shu asked Lin Junxuan first as soon as he opened his mouth.
"The emperor is mediocre, the discipline is corrupt, and the officials will rule [***]!" Lin Junxuan didn't think much about it and said his answer. Most of the dynastic changes in this history are like this, it is not that the emperor is mediocre, the officials rule [***], and the excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes are extremely large, and most of the common people will not rebel. The so-called officials forced the people to rebel, and they had to rebel.
Luo Shu stretched out a finger and shook it, then stroked two wisps of rat whiskers, and said quite proudly: "Wrong, wrong." The Yu Dynasty is very not mediocre, on the contrary, the Yu Dynasty is extremely strict in the selection of each emperor, and the Yu Dynasty has formed a set of extremely strict selection and allocation system. Who the crown prince is, this is not just the emperor's decision. ”
"At the end of the Yu Dynasty, not only was it not mediocre, but on the contrary, the officials ruled clearly, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and even our rat clan has always eaten as much as we wanted!" Luo Shu had a look of fascination on his face, as if he missed that time very much.
"How is that possible?" Lin Junxuan's eyes widened, this conclusion was completely beyond his expectations, a dynasty that ruled the Qingming Dynasty should never collapse with a bang.
"Hehe," Luo Shu flicked his beard and stopped selling Guanzi: "Three hundred years ago, the last emperor of the Yu Dynasty celebrated his 60th birthday, and hundreds of officials entered Beijing to worship, a scene of singing and dancing. Just when the hundred officials were worshipping the emperor in the palace, eight top powerhouses of the evil path broke into the imperial city, and when the masters of the Dao sect heard the news, the imperial city had been razed to the ground, and the emperor of the Yu Dynasty, including the hundred officials, was all killed!"
"!!" Lin Junxuan almost couldn't believe his ears, how could it be?! How could a cultivator be so daring?!
"Who dares to slack off on the birthday of the emperor of the Yu Dynasty, the emperor's dragon sons and grandsons, direct and sideline, all gathered in the imperial city, it was this blow that completely cut off the bloodline of the Yu Dynasty!"
"Impossible, don't those princes of the Yu Dynasty have heirs?" After the initial shock, Lin Junxuan immediately found something suspicious: "It's impossible that all the princes and heirs of the Yu Dynasty have gone to meet the emperor, right?
"You just listen to me," Luo Shu said this, and looked at Lin Junxuan with a smile: "When the drum sounded just now, I saw that you were also very uncomfortable. This drum I know, it is the Hongji Dynasty enshrined in the imperial capital dragon court 'Kui Drum', legend has it that the ancient emperor Xuanyuan in order to deal with the evil army of the big devil Chi You, killed the Kui Niu of Liubo Mountain in the East China Sea, and skinned him to make a drum. As soon as the drums sounded, all the cultivators within a radius of five hundred miles would fall from the sky. As soon as the drum sounded, the heavens and the earth changed color, and the true qi in the cultivator's body floated, but ordinary people would be fine when they heard this sound. ”
"Ancient Emperor Xuanyuan!" Lin Junxuan's heart was shaken, he had the heart to ask, but he was afraid that Luo Shu would suspect him. If he says that he doesn't know this kind of common sense, he will definitely be suspicious.
'Thousand Character Wen', 'Yasheng' Mencius, 'Shen Gongbao', 'Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan', 'Kuigu'...... A series of impressions quickly crossed through his mind, and at this moment, Lin Junxuan had an extremely strong feeling in his heart: "This world must have an extremely close connection with the world before I crossed over!!"
In his ears, he only heard Luo Shu continue: "If you want to beat this drum, you must consume your soul very much, and ordinary strong men will die of soul exhaustion after beating three or five times. The stronger the drummer, the higher the level of cultivators who can be limited. If a 'celestial' beats a drum, one after another, within a range of five hundred miles, even a strong person in the realm of 'immortals' has to fall to the ground. During the three hundred years of turmoil, somehow, the Hongji Dynasty actually found this 'Kui Drum', and then relied on the 'Broken God Crossbow' built by the dark iron under the deep sea, during the three hundred years of melee, these two treasures, the Purple Marquis assisted the Hongji Dynasty I don't know how many cultivators were killed!"
Lin Junxuan looked at the huge carriage wrapped in a black cloth curtain again, looked carefully, and finally found that there seemed to be a secret door under the big carriage of the house, and after a while, a soldier dragged out a corpse from under the carriage. These people apparently died of soul exhaustion because of the beating of the 'drum'.
"Thousands of feet deep under the deep sea, there are some dark irons buried, these cold dark irons were hidden deep at the bottom of the sea for thousands of years ago, and they were tempered by the yin qi between heaven and earth at night, and after forging long arrows, they have the function of breaking the true qi of cultivators, and the Hongji Dynasty called it 'Breaking God Crossbow!' Fortunately, this deep sea is very large, and the deep sea dark iron may be hidden anywhere, and the amount is very small, it is not so easy to obtain, and there are not many 'Broken God Crossbows' of the Hongji Dynasty. Obviously, the matter of Lin'an City made the Central Dragon Court of the Hongji Dynasty extremely angry, otherwise it would not have dispatched the already small number of 'God-Breaking Crossbows'!"
"I still don't understand, why do people in the evil way want to destroy the Yu Dynasty? Cultivating the Tao is Yin and Yang, and it is the Heavenly Dao. What does this have to do with the dynasty in the world? You ask me if I have practiced the martial arts, and what does this matter have to do with the affairs of Lin'an City?" Lin Junxuan wondered.
"Click!" Luo Shu chewed another peanut and said, "You have practiced the cultivation technique, you should know that after the cultivator builds the foundation, the first step of 'receiving qi' is actually to absorb the vitality between heaven and earth. The skills of thousands of sects in the world to absorb the vitality of heaven and earth are different, and there are only a few methods that lead to the same goal. Either absorb the vitality of the mountains, or absorb the aura of the rivers and seas, or absorb the essence of the trees, or absorb the spirit of the moon and the moon, or absorb the dead qi of mass graves. Most of the evil ways in the world absorb the dead qi and turbid qi between heaven and earth, which is why they are called evil ways, and they themselves do not deny it. ”
"Originally, the affairs of the human dynasty really have nothing to do with the cultivation world. Whether the dynasty is prosperous or declining, both good and evil are unlikely to intervene, let alone do anything to destroy a dynasty's society. But the problem is that three hundred years ago, the prosperity of the Yu Dynasty lasted too long. If a dynasty prospers for ten or a hundred years, the cult sects can accept it, but the more it continues for thousands of years, the more the officials rule the government and the people live and work in peace and contentment, it will be very bad for the cult sects. ”
"What's the wrong way?"
"Hmph, let me ask you, if you are an evil sect, for thousands of years, the world will be peaceful, the people will live and work in peace and contentment, everyone will live a long life, no one will die, and naturally there will be no mass graves. If the various sects of the Dao Sect are cultivating the vitality of heaven and earth, hills, birds, wood, insects, and fish, they will not be affected by this at all. But the heretical sect is different. If there are no new corpses added to a mass grave, then after a hundred years, the connection between this mass grave and the yin qi in the depths of the earth will be severed, and everything will be broken, and this mass grave will no longer be useful to the evil sect. In the long run, the various sects of the evil path will have no place to cultivate, and the inheritance of the sect will be cut off. If the Yu Dynasty lasts for decades, it will be nothing, and all factions of the evil way can accept it. A little longer, a hundred, two hundred, three hundred years of prosperity, although such a long period of prosperity is a little longer, but the evil sects can barely accept it. However, the duration of the prosperity of the Yu Dynasty was not decades, not hundreds of years, but more than a thousand years. For more than a thousand years, there are not many mass graves in the world that have been cut off from the underground yin qi, and there are fewer and fewer places for the disciples of the evil sects to practice, which has gradually caused the anxiety of the evil sects, but under the rule of the Yu Dynasty, it has been thousands of years, and this dynasty has not yet shown signs of decline. It was for this reason that three hundred years ago, the top powerhouses of the eight major sects of the Evil Dao had a secret meeting. There is no impermeable wall in the world, and the actions of the various sects of the evil way have also aroused the vigilance of all sects of the Daomen, although there was some news at that time, but no one dared to believe that these strong people of the evil way dared to really do such a big thing. By the time they found out, the eight top powerhouses of the Evil Dao had already gathered in the capital of the Yu Dynasty, and each of them used their most powerful abilities to directly destroy the imperial city of the Yu Dynasty. When the masters of the Dao Sect arrived, the battle between the two strong men of the good and evil realms directly led to the death of nearly one million civilians of the Yu Dynasty, and the capital of the Yu Dynasty turned into a dead city overnight! Hundreds of thousands of people died tragically, and strong resentment filled the capital of the Yu Dynasty. To this day, the cult sects still regard it as a 'holy place' and often go there to practice. The death qi there is very thick, and ordinary disciples can only practice at the very edge, and once they get too close, they will be supported by the strong death qi and die. ”
"What is the name of the capital of the Yu Dynasty?" asked Lin Junxuan.
"In the name of the dynasty, it is called 'Yu', and now people call it 'Waste Capital', and people of various sects of evil sects call it 'Eight Sacred Lands'. Luo Shu said.
"Since then, there have been three hundred years of turmoil, and the gang has often lost his way, the son kills the brother, the father kills the son, and the wife kills the son...... , people eat people, and the evil way really prospers. There are far more disciples in these 300 years than in the past 1,000 years. In the past three hundred years, it has almost been the world of evil ways, and the various sects of the Dao sect have collapsed!"
Lin Junxuan frowned: "Those eight top powerhouses of the Evil Dao have killed so many people, and they are okay in the end?"
"How can it be okay? The eight top evil Dao powerhouses are all masters who have surpassed the 'Heavenly Man' period, after destroying the imperial city of the Yu Dynasty, the eight people fought with the top powerhouses of the Dao Sect who arrived later, and that battle was earth-shattering, until now, the 'waste capital' is covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder, just like the situation when they fought each other. Of the eight top powerhouses of the evil path, three were killed in battle, and the remaining five escaped. Destroying a prosperous dynasty, killing hundreds of thousands of people, and doing such a terrible thing, these evil powerhouses knew that they would die, and after returning to their respective sects, the five of them left their top skills and experiences in the sects, and after doing this, the curse came. The thunderbolt with the thickness of the water tank directly pierced through the top of the mountain of the five evil path holy lands and blasted into the secret room, killing these five top evil path powerhouses. And the eight top powerhouses of the Dao Sect also suffered the death of nearly one million people in the 'Waste Capital' because of their battles with the eight powerhouses of the Evil Dao, and they were also punished one after another. All the masters who participated in the battle in the capital of the Yu Dynasty were all punished by heaven! Both the good and evil realms lost a large number of top powerhouses, and after the fall of the Yu Dynasty, the forces of the two sides were balanced. And because they were worried that the bloodline of the Yu Dynasty would reunify the world and succeed the prosperity of the Yu Dynasty, some evil masters surnamed Suo killed all the bloodlines of the royal family of the Yu Dynasty!"
