Lao Tzu was born in the first year of King Ling of Zhou, and when he was twenty years old, he served as the keeper of the Tibetan Chamber, and King Ling had just reigned for twenty years.

King Ling of Zhou, surnamed Ji, named Chuxin, son of King Ji Yi of Zhou Jian, and the 11th monarch of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

To be honest, Gu Bei didn't have much impression of the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, and in addition to King Wen Ji Chang and King Wu Ji Fa, there was only one King Zhou You who lit the beacon just to make no one laugh.

Should I say it or not, although King Zhou You's matter is a bit ridiculous, and he has lost the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, it does make people's names remain eternal.

If King You hadn't done these ridiculous things, I am afraid that he would be like other emperors of the Zhou Dynasty, and he would have been lost to everyone.

Moreover, these three are all from the Western Zhou Dynasty.

As for the Emperor of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty......

Excuse me, what Eastern Zhou?

Isn't that the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period?

In fact, it is.

Since the fall of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the princes supported the deposed prince Yijiu as the king and moved east to Luoyi.

Yijiu, the unlucky son of King Zhou You, who played the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, was also the first emperor of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, known as King Zhou Ping in history.

Since then, the Great Zhou has existed in name only.

After King Ping moved eastward, his jurisdiction was greatly reduced, and he was like a small country, and there were more than 140 vassal states in the Spring and Autumn Period.

The princes attacked and annexed each other, and the Son of Heaven could not bear the responsibility of co-master, and often had to turn to some powerful princes for help.

In this case, the powerful princes claim to be the overlords.

In the first half of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the princes competed for hegemony, which was for the Spring and Autumn Period.

In 453 BC, after the three families of Han, Zhao and Wei joined forces to slaughter the Zhi family, the three families were divided into Jin, and the princes fought against each other, which was for the Warring States.

During the reign of Lingwang Ji Chuxin, the state of the Zhou Dynasty was declining day by day, the prestige of Zhou Tianzi was declining day by day, the vassal states expanded their power through war, and the great vassal states ignored the Zhou monarch.

The strong country defeated the weak country, and the people's livelihood was suffering after years of war.

However, not only did King Ling himself not do anything big, in fact, since the establishment of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, most of the emperors have been like this.

After all, the Zhou royal family has declined, and he can't do anything big if he wants to, and the royal family members only have Yingge and Yan Dance all day long, and the big deal is to read books and listen to small songs, and the territory of the royal family is so big, it is about to be divided up by the princes.

And the descendants of the Zhou royal family actually don't really want to do anything.

The city of Zhou Wangcheng is between the princes, it can be said that it is tightly wrapped, and it is difficult for even the dog Rong to fight in, and the safety of the children of the royal family can be absolutely guaranteed.

If you want to talk about lewd and extravagant, there is no way to compare with the princes of the big countries, but you are not poor, you can't eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas, but you can't eat bran vegetables.

These princes take care of food and drink, and they also give you as bodyguards, and they don't let you work, what do you want?

Anyway, the Zhou royal family in the past dynasties was a big move to lie flat.

"So, this Zhou Ling King is actually not important?"

Gu Bei and Ange sat in the front row of Martha's seats, listening to the history of the Nono Kop Zhou Dynasty in the back row.

The three of them couldn't squat in an abandoned building to study ancient books, so they simply drove back to the hotel they had booked before, and by the way, they also called Chu Zihang, Caesar, and Fingal back.

Ange put the steering wheel, trying not to control the speed too fast, Gu Bei's eyes looked straight ahead, and his two fingers rubbed the ring in his hand, and the ancient silk book written by Lao Tzu was included in it.

Because now in the car, it is not convenient to continue to study the content of ancient books, and it just so happens that Nuo Nuo also supplemented the knowledge of these two illiterate people who are not illiterate.

These two people, one doesn't care about this kind of inconsequential knowledge, and the other is simply not from the Celestial Empire, so they don't know who King Zhou Ling is.

Fortunately, there is a character named Nuno here, who is suspected of being an encyclopedia, otherwise he would really be blind with black eyes.

"I can't say that it doesn't ...... important"

Nono recalled the knowledge in his mind and said, "Actually, our current history is divided into two versions. ”

Gu Bei nodded, indicating that he understood.

The history of this world has never been simple, humans, hybrids, and dragons are intertwined to form an epic blockbuster that lasts for more than thousands of years.

Ying Zheng once slashed the next generation with a sword.

Ramses II was a pure-blooded dragon with a title.

King Arthur's red dragon bloodline comes from the Lord of Bronze and Fire.

Ordinary people can only watch part of this blockbuster, which is the so-called "history"

Only dragons and half-bloods can see the "truth" wrapped in the shell of "history".

"In fact, it is not surprising whether King Zhou Ling is a pure-blooded dragon or a half-blood, on the contrary, if he is a pure-blooded human, it is really a big discovery."

While driving, Ange interjected: "Because of the limited information, Kassel does not know the history of the Celestial Empire before the Qin Dynasty, but since the Qin Dynasty, even the Qin Dynasty is counted, and there are only two dynasties in which pure-blooded humans serve as royals." ”

One of them was the Great Qin who died in the second place.

Nuo Nuo took over: "The other one is Da Ming." ”

Gu Bei was stunned for a moment, he didn't know much about the history of the half-breed, but he instinctively felt that something was wrong: "It's not Datang?" ”

Nuo Nuo shook his head: "The Tang Emperor Li family is not a human race, but a mixed race, it used to be a family, and the Zhao family of the Song Dynasty is also in a similar situation, as for the Yuan and Qing ......"

Nuno was silent, and Ange took over again: "Kublai Khan is a pure-blooded dragon at all, he has a bunch of Deadpools under his hands, he is brave and good at fighting, and he can't meet opponents at all, so the Yuan Dynasty can conquer such a big world." ”

Gu Bei nodded, found that Ange had no follow-up, and asked, "What about the Qing Dynasty?" ”

Ange snorted: "The situation of those guys is a bit complicated......"

Well, there's a problem here.

Nono didn't seem to be going to say anything, so he simply didn't ask.

However, for thousands of years, only the two dynasties of Great Qin and Ming Dynasty were pure-blooded human beings as royal families, and Gu Bei was still a little embarrassed.

"Therefore, it is normal for King Zhou Ling to have blood, and I will not be surprised to even say that he is a pure-blood, there is only one thing that I didn't expect."

Gu Bei looked at Ange: "You didn't expect that?" What's up? ”

Ange's eyes lit up under his sunglasses: "There is no information about Lao Tzu in our materials, but we have been speculating whether Lao Tzu is a half-breed or an ordinary person. ”

"In fact, there is no suspense about this question, because most of the people who can achieve great success in human history are mixed-race, and only a very few are ordinary people, but in terms of speculation about Lao Tzu, some people can't make up their minds."

"Because, in the same period, in addition to Lao Tzu, there were two other amazing people, and they were all pure-blooded humans."

"This led our research team to become interested in the human genes of the society at that time, and began to speculate about the possibility that Lao Tzu was a pure-blooded human."

Speaking of this, Ange smiled: "Now it seems that Lao Tzu should be an ordinary person, it's unbelievable." ”

Gu Bei grinned: "Don't make up your mind so early, you haven't read the content in the back yet." ”

said so, but Gu Bei's psychology was also more inclined to the guess that Lao Tzu was an ordinary person.

After all, if Lao Tzu was a half-breed, it is unlikely that there would be no signs of awakening for twenty years.

Martha fell silent, and the three of them were thinking about the records in the ancient silk books, and after a while, the car arrived at the hotel.

Because the suite where Gu Bei and the others lived was full, Nuo Nuo opened another suite, and Ange didn't stay here, so he didn't open a room.

The three of them gathered in the room of Gu Bei and the others, and the three of Caesar had not returned at this time.

Gu Bei took out the silk book and the wooden box used to hold the silk book from the storage ring and put it on the table: "Wait for them together?" ”

Nono looked at Ange.

Ange shook his head: "Don't wait, let's continue." ”

Nono nodded, took the silk book out of the wooden box, and found the location of the last translation.

——

When I came back to my senses, I was in the middle of the snow.

The guards were gone, the palace was gone, and the king looked at me with eyes as bright as two great suns, and I was in a daze for a while.

"What's going on?"

The king shook his head and disappeared in front of me.

In this cold and snowy place, I am the only one left.

Immediately afterward, I saw the most unforgettable scene of my life.

The heavens and rivers are reversed, and the sun and moon move the stars.

The snow falls and returns to the sky.

Everything in this world seems to be going backwards, even time, except for me.

How powerful is that?

I saw with my own eyes that everything in the world dissolved, and even the ground beneath my feet turned into nothingness, falling into a void of boundlessness.

Not darkness, but nothing.

And then, a light came on.

No, it wasn't light, it was a golden, sun-like eye.

Then two, three, four.

Four huge eyes appeared in the void.

I retreated far away and found that these were two strange beings.

Even though I've never seen them, I knew them at first sight.

They are "dragons".

I've never seen dragons, but they're mostly dragons.

It's just that they look a little different.

One of them, in the form of a great beast, stood up; The other, as long as a giant python, meandered.

Immediately afterward, they fought violently.

The result is a lose-lose situation.

The one like the serpent coiled up, and countless rocks covered his scales, and finally turned into a piece of earth.

Like the one of the giant beasts, his body was torn apart, and he fell to the earth, and became countless lives.

There are birds, animals, swimming fish, and humans.

There is also a "dragon" that looks like a giant beast.

After that, the "dragons" created other dragons and ruled the world, while humans were not willing to be oppressed and rose up to resist.

And the hybrid race was born from it.

I saw a flower before my eyes, and these scenes drifted away like floating clouds, and I returned to the icy and snowy land, and the king stood before me, and his voice was cold: "How? ”

I don't know how to answer.

This short experience has turned everything I have learned upside down, as if my past 20 years have been a big dream, and now, I have woken up from the dream.

Everything in this world is not what he learned, nor is it what he knows.

The heavens are not heavens, and there is no god in this world.

After a long time, I said, "Your Majesty, do you have any instructions?" ”

Wang nodded: "Li Er, I know that you are a learned person in this world, can you do me a favor?" ”

I agreed.

The king said, "There are evil dragons in this world, and there are troubles in the world, so I ask my husband to come up with a plan to keep the human race safe." ”

I agreed again.

It's not that I'm proud, but I understand that this is the business of the people of the world, and I am naturally among the people of the world.

The king nodded and waved his hand.

I left the world with a flower in front of me, surrounded by a familiar palace and a circle of fierce guards.

The king looked at me, and his eyes seemed to flow with a golden light.

I hesitated and asked, "Wang, ...... Great Zhou."

"Don't care."

The king cut off my words: "The Great Zhou is the Great Zhou of the world. ”

With these words in my hand, I left the palace.

From that day on, in addition to thinking about the world, I was also thinking about how to fulfill the agreement with the king.

I have been in Zhoudu for a long time, and it is gradually rumored that I am very knowledgeable, because I am old-fashioned, so they call me Lao Tzu.

Not to mention, it's a funny name.

But Lao Tzu also has Lao Tzu's troubles, and Lao Tzu's troubles are not known to most people.

Mankind......

What does it take to fight that being?

I couldn't see the way forward, and I couldn't find the answer.

Until a young man came to visit me.

His surname is Kong, and his name is Kongqiu.

It is said that he is a descendant who is no less knowledgeable than me.

I received him, and in him I found hope in overcoming that existence.

It is obviously the flesh and blood of mortals, but it can combine the power of heaven and earth to compete with the sun and the moon.

When I saw him knock all the guards around the king to the ground with his bare hands, I knew that the person I had been waiting for, looking for, appeared.

The king placed him in the storage room, and we sat down and talked about it, and we benefited greatly.

Of course, the most important gain is a kind of qi found from Confucius.

According to Kongqiu, since he was born, he felt that there was a breath of qi in his body, which would follow his mind and move around the body, and every time he reached it, he could make the body stronger and more powerful.

Moreover, this qi does not seem to be unique to his body, but exists in this world, and whenever the qi in his body is about to run out, there will be qi around him pouring into his body, so that he will never be exhausted.

I believe this is a great discovery.

Humans may be able to grasp this qi and become as powerful as that being.

Wang agrees with me.

I kept Kong Qiu for a few more days, trying to get a way to get qi from him, but it was like some kind of talent, and even Kong Zhongni himself didn't know how to do it.

He only knew that he could roughly control the movement of qi within his body, and he couldn't even release it.

But even so, it made Kong Qiu a huge force that could carry the crown.

Perhaps, this is really the way out for humanity.

But until Kong Qiu left Zhoudu, I still couldn't find that way.

In the dark, I have a feeling that the qi in Kongqiu's body should be some kind of ultimate existence in this world, and if you want to master it, you must either be gifted or spy on the essence of the world.

But I prefer to make it accessible to humans.

I gave it a name.

"Qi".
