Chapter 43: Wonderful!
Kunlun Mountain, Yuxu Palace.
The green flags are paired, the furnace is double, the two rows of feathers are ethereal, and the fragrance is ethereal.
The pillars of the temple are crystal clear, and the water in it is flowing vigorously, soaking a few spiritual roots of heaven and earth that have grown from the opening of the world to the present.
Envy flashed in Zhun Ti's eyes, and he reluctantly withdrew his gaze and made a mockery of Yuan Shi Tianzun.
"Senior brother."
Yuan Shi, who was sitting on the futon, opened his eyes lightly and said:
"Senior brother is here."
Looking at each other speechlessly, the origin of Zhun Ti's origin is very clear.
A day ago, the Dao Ancestor decree issued a notice to the Three Realms, announcing that Zixiao Palace was closed.
For the Heavenly Immortals, this is a matter of indifference.
But for the saints, it represents:
The initiator of the Great Tribulation of the Gods, quit and quit.
Yuan Shi shook his head and said lightly:
"I can't guess the teacher's intentions."
Zhun Ti probed:
"Is that God Tribulation ......?"
Yuan Shi Tianzun was silent.
After Guang Chengzi returned, he could see at a glance that his disciple's memory had been modified, and the remaining Tai Qing Innocence told him unabashedly that his brother was on Yin Shang's side.
Daozu withdrew, and Nuwa, who already had a good impression of humanity, would definitely end up directly.
plus the third brother Tongtian......
Yuan Shi glanced at Zhun Ti, and then remembered the Taoist who was in charge of luck in the West, and suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
If the Great War of the Saints breaks out, the balance of combat power will be too unbalanced.
"The catastrophe continues, but before that, the humanitarian blessing must be resolved."
Yuan Shi's voice echoed in all directions, and after preparing for a long time, he would never give up.
Hearing this, Zhun Ti sighed lightly:
"It's not that Senior Brother doesn't know what happened in Beihai, I thought that I could find someone to die with Ziyao, but now it seems that humanity is so protective of his shortcomings, I'm afraid that any killing move in the Heavenly Dao category will be useless to him."
"In vain, my disciple sacrificed his life to refine a killing spell and engraved it on Ziyao's personal dagger, even if he stabbed himself, he would probably only suffer a little skin injury."
Yuan Shi wanted to say that your dagger had long since lost its effect, but he was afraid that saying it would hit Zhun Ti's self-confidence, so he still pressed it in his heart.
After thinking for a long time, he suddenly looked at Zhun Ti and said with a smile:
"Heaven and earth can't hurt him, so he will use the way of others to treat his body."
Zhun Ti wondered:
"Senior brother means ......"
Yuan Shi: "......"
A moment later.
"Wonderful! That's a great way to do it! ”
Zhun Ti's eyes lit up, and he said with joy:
"Senior brother really won the Three Realms of wisdom!"
"I'll take care of it! Ensure that Ziyao can't interfere in the catastrophe of the gods! ”
Yuan Shi, who came up with a solution, also laughed and said:
"Then I'll go to the tunnel and visit the friends of the Houdao."
……
Nandu.
"Wonderful! That's a great plan! ”
In the study room of Nanbohou's Mansion, Di Xin, who had arrived with the army, couldn't help but clap his hands in admiration.
He looked at Bai Yao more and more pleasing to the eye, and boasted:
"Great wishes are indeed the best in the world!"
"On the grounds of instability in the north, let the East and West Bohou pacify the barbarians, which can not only preserve the national strength of the Great Shang, but also consume the national strength of Xiqi and Donglu!"
"Da Zhu rest assured to clear the foreign gods, and leave the affairs of the enemy to Lonely!"
Bai Yao smiled and said nothing.
After Di Xin's excitement had passed, he spoke:
"But I'll go to the barbarian leaders first, if they don't want to ......"
Bai Yao paused, and killing intent flashed in his eyes:
"It's only a few years before the national memorial."
Hearing this, Di Xin first nodded, then suddenly remembered something, and frowned:
"Do we still have to sacrifice human animals in the national sacrifice? Nuwa Niangniang said that the royal family has accumulated too much karma, and when the time comes, the counterattack on the national fortune will cause Dazhu to fall asleep again, and the gains outweigh the losses......"
Only then did Bai Yao remember that he had bluffed Di Xin before, and said that the reason why he was asleep was because the fortune of the country was affected by karma.
But since the saints say that the accumulation of karma is irretrievable, it means that there is no way to do it, sooner or later they will fight back, and they can only kill a little less, after all, their power comes from sacrifices.
Di Xin changed, and at first his idea was to reduce the number of people and animals, and replace them with noble princes and nobles, so that he could not only eradicate dissidents, but also show his sincerity to his ancestors.
Now, he wanted to abolish human sacrifice altogether, because he thought that once Dazhu fell asleep again, the royal family would inevitably be in chaos, and that was a situation that he could not control.
The national sacrifice is not as simple as killing thousands of people.
But Di Xin's steps are too big, the six-hundred-year-old ancestral system, coupled with the brainwashing management of the previous dynasties, can it be easily changed with one sentence?
Moreover, Bai Yao can't give up the human sacrifice now, he wants to use the sacrifice to continue to strengthen his divine rule, deter Xiaoxiao while maintaining the stability of the internal environment, and welcome the catastrophe of the gods.
Again, it can be less, but it can't be without.
After a moment of silence, Bai Yao said softly:
"When I was sacrificing to the Great Chenxu in the Snow Field, my soul ascended into the Heavenly Realm and met the Ancestor Heavenly God."
Di Xin breathed heavily, and his eyes were full of envy:
"It's a great blessing, I can actually enter the heavenly realm alive!"
Bai Yao's words were mixed between true and false, raised his left hand to Di Xin, cyan runes flashed in his palm, and said lightly:
"I met the god of wind."
It was a pictogram that represented the wind.
Di Xin's eyes widened and he said in surprise:
"Anemo God?!"
The sacrifices of the Shang Dynasty people reflected their knowledge of the world – that all things are animistic and that nature itself possesses supernatural powers.
And the wind, formless and colorless, incomprehensible and indescribable, has been worshiped even more. Since celestial phenomena are closely related to agricultural production, by observing the causes and effects of weather changes, merchants believe that rain is brought by the wind, and clouds are secondary.
Wind, as a personified natural phenomenon, was very important to the Shang people.
Seeing Di Xin's expression, Bai Yao felt that the Shang Dynasty people had the potential to believe in Cthulhu, after all, they were all indescribable things.
He nodded, and said with a solemn expression:
"The Wind God received me on behalf of the Emperor of Heaven."
Di Xin still looks like a merchant king now, and said excitedly like a child listening to a story:
"What did the god of wind say?"
He seems to have forgotten that he is also an "emperor".
According to the teachings of the religion of the Great Shang State, after his death, he would be promoted from "king" to "emperor", on the same rank as the emperor of heaven.
In the age of obscurantism, binding the ancestors to the gods could greatly strengthen the legitimacy of the regime.
The first Dazhu still did something for the royal family.
Baiyao continued:
"The god of wind said that the divine realm no longer needed lowly sacrifices, and that the filthy blood of slaves would defile the majesty of the ancestral gods."
This sentence supports Di Xin's theory of manpower.
Seeing Di Xin nodding excitedly, he said again:
"But the ancestors will see our exploits, just as I did in Chongcheng, and sacrifice those who are noble or brave against the great merchants."
Bai Yao took a deep breath, stared at Di Xin's eyes, and said:
"Don't worry, my soul has been baptized by the wind god and will not fall asleep again."
This sentence undoubtedly reassured Di Xin, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"That's fine, then ...... next"
Bai Yao smiled:
"I'll go to the barbarians first, and if things go well, the king and the troops of Donglu and Xiqi will go south, and then withdraw the army back to Chaoge, and arrange for people to send grain, grass and ordnance to the barbarians."
After that, he turned into a gust of wind and disappeared in Di Xin's eyes.
