Chapter 36 Don't eat Zhou Su

"I thought that Yi Qi Chong was surnamed Yi and his name was Qi Chong, but after hearing the name Yi Qi Shang, I knew that Yi Qi was a compound surname.

"I thought carefully about the surnames I read when I was a child, and then recalled the surnames of people I knew before, which seemed to have never appeared, so I said casually: 'It's the first time I've heard the surname Yiqi. ’

"Gu Zhugong nodded slightly and said, "This surname only exists on this Shouyang Mountain, and after this mountain, there is no second person with this surname." ’

"I asked, 'Which county does that surname come from?'

"Gu Zhugong shook his head slightly and said, "My surname is not passed down by blood, and I don't have any prestige. Rather, it is passed down by mysticism. And this surname is just a false surname. Nowadays, the old and young in the mountains all take the word Yiqi as their surname, but everyone has their own real surname, such as Chong'er's real surname is Li, and the old man's real surname is Liu. Within my Xuanmen, the people in the mountains can call themselves Yiqi two words, or they can call themselves with real surnames. ’

"I asked, 'What does it mean to be a peerless system, and what do you mean by constant human relations?' ’

"Gu Zhugong stood up, walked to the stone railing at the head of the cave with his hands behind his back, looked at the mountains in the distance, and said slowly: "This is a long story. ’

After he finished speaking, he turned and walked to the high platform in the middle of the cave, and said tea as he went.

"He went up to the high platform, looked back at me, and said, 'Come and sit on it.'" ’

"I went up the steps on the right. There are two stone chairs on each side of the stone throne on the high platform, and there is a small stone coffee table on each side of the stone chair.

"I saw that Gu Zhugong was sitting on the throne, so he was sitting on the stone chair on the right.

At this time, Dao Tong brought tea.

"Gu Zhugong picked up the teacup and said, 'Take a sip of tea first, and I'm going to talk to you today.' ’

I took a bite from my teacup.

"Gu Zhugong stroked his long silver hair with his hand, and said: 'In ancient times, the emperor ruled the world, and the emperor gave birth to five sons, the eldest son was the best, the second son was released, the third son was abandoned, the fourth son was the deed, and the fifth son was the seal.

"'The emperor collapsed, and the eldest son Zhi succeeded to the throne and was called Emperor Zhi. Emperor Zhi ruled for nine years, and was at odds with his ministers, so he was in Fangxun. Fang Xun succeeded to the throne, which is Emperor Yao.

"'After Zhi went to the throne, he exiled himself to the land of Dongyi, and his descendants disappeared among the common people.

"'Later, Emperor Yao Chan was located in Chonghua, and he was Emperor Shun.

"'Emperor Shun flooded, Emperor Shun sent Dayu to control the water, Dayu changed the blockage to sparse, the water control was successful, and the people supported him, Emperor Shun Zen was located in him. It is the king of Dayu.

"'When King Dayu was old, he planned to Zen in Yi, but when he collapsed, his son Qi killed Yi and replaced him, and established the country as Xia.

"'Xia has been in the country for more than 400 years, and the throne has been passed down to Ji, and the princes of the Quartet have flocked to the throne, resulting in chaos in the world and the people are not living.

"'At the time of the emperor's deed, the fourth son's deed and the fifth son's Taixi were not in harmony, and the emperor's deed was sealed in Shangqiu. The contract has been passed down in the land of Shangqiu for 14 generations, which is the life of Xia Wei.

"'The fourteenth grandson of the deed is Chengtang.

"'Chengyu gathered the princes of the world to fight Xia together, defeated Xia Ji in the field of Narujo, exiled Xia Ji in Nanchao, and quelled the disputes in the world.

"'The princes elected Cheng Tang as the Son of Heaven and established the country as a businessman.

"'After Cheng Tang succeeded to the throne of the Son of Heaven, he found that among the five sons of the emperor, except for Zhi, the other four sons had descendants to pass on to the world. He sent Yi Yin to the land of Dongyi to find his descendants.

"'Yi Yin searched in Dongyi for three years, and finally found his descendants.

"'The descendants of Chengtang Fengzhi built a lonely bamboo country in Dongyi, which is a country of business.

"'For more than 900 years, the country of Guzhu has been passed down to the monarch Moti Yawei. Moti Yawei had three sons, the eldest son was named Boyi, the second son was called Shuqi, and the third son Yaping.

"'Yawei doted on Shu Qi and wanted to pass on the throne to Shu Qi before his death.

"'After the death of Yawei, Shuqi gave way to his eldest son, Boyi, who refused to disobey his father's orders and resolutely refused to accept it.

"'Both of them refused to succeed to the throne, fearing that the ministers would force each other, so they fled to the Western Zhou Dynasty together.

"'At that time, the Western Zhou Dynasty was ruled by King Wen Jichang, and treated Uncle Boyi as a guest.

"'Ji Chang was originally a descendant of Emperor Yu's third son. At that time, the king of Shang had no way, and the princes rose up to conquer the king of Zhou, and pushed Ji Chang, the lord of the Western Zhou Dynasty, as the lord of the princes' alliance.

"'Ji Chang planned to cut merchants and visited Jiang Shang by the Weishui River.

"'After Ji Chang died, his son Ji Fa succeeded to the throne, that is, King Wu of Zhou.

"'King Wu of Zhou, with the assistance of Jiang Shang, sent troops eastward to prepare for a crusade against the King of Shang.

"'Bo Yi Shuqi thanked the ancestor of Shang, Cheng Tang, for the grace of the Guzhu Kingdom, and blocked the horse of King Wu of Zhou, asking King Wu to dismiss the army.

"'King Wu hesitated. Jiang Shang said to King Wu, if you want all two people, you will abandon all the people, and if you want all the people, you will disobey two people.

"'When the king of martial arts heard this, he resolutely sent troops.

"'After the death of Shang, Bo Yi and Shu Qi fled into this Shouyang Mountain. Gather vetch all day long to satisfy hunger.

"'King Wu sent someone to send corn cloth up the mountain, and the two resolutely refused to accept it, preferring to starve to death and freeze to death rather than eat Zhou's corn and wear Zhou's cloth.

"'When Bo Yi Shuqi was about to starve to death, a woodcutter went up the mountain to chop wood and saw them.

"'When the woodcutter knew that Uncle Bo Yi would not eat Zhou Su, he cut off the flesh from his body and let them eat it.

"'Uncle Bo Yi thanked him for his sincerity, and passed on the two treasures he had with him to the woodcutter. And told the woodcutter that Zhou took the world, and all the people in the world were Zhou's people, and his flesh was also the flesh of the Zhou people. They must not eat it. Finally starved to death in the mountains.

"'The woodcutter buried them and swore not to be Zhou's subjects for the rest of his life, so he built a hut on the mountain, hunted and cleared the wasteland, and lived here in seclusion for the rest of his life.

"'The two treasures that Uncle Bo Yi passed on to the woodcutter, one is the Jinyun Sword and the other is the Xuanmen Technique.

"'The Jinyun Sword was the divine sword used by the Yellow Emperor to kill Chi You back then.

"'After the Yellow Emperor defeated Chiyou, the Jinyun Sword became a holy relic in the world. The Yellow Emperor once issued a warning that this sword could only be passed on to the eldest son in later generations.

"'Later, the Yellow Emperor passed on to the eldest son Xuanhuan, and the Xuanhuan passed to the eldest son, Xuanji, who passed on to the eldest son, and the emperor passed to the eldest son, and the emperor passed to the eldest son.

"'After giving the throne to the emperor, he entered the land of Dongyi with the divine sword. Since then, Excalibur has disappeared from the world.

"'On the occasion of Xia's death, Yi Yin found Zhi's descendants, and the Excalibur reappeared, and it has been passed down from generation to generation in the Lone Bamboo Kingdom.

"'Before his death, although the lord of the Lone Bamboo Country, Mo Fetus Yawei, passed the throne to Shu Qi, he did not dare to disobey the commandment of the Yellow Emperor and passed the Jinyun Sword to Boyi. Boyi took it all the way to Xiqi, and then took it to Shouyang Mountain.

"'Xuanmen Shu' is the canon of Xuanjiao, and it is also an ancient testament. The book contains many secrets for cultivating the Divine Law.

"'You may not have heard of Xuanjiao. Like Taoism, it is a method of cultivating the truth handed down to the world by the ancient gods.

"'Taoism originated from Nuwa, while Xuanism originated from Fuxi.

"'Since the beginning of Xuanjiao's origin, it has spread in the land of Dongyi. After entering Dongyi, his descendants believed in Xuanjiao for generations, and after dozens of generations, they collected and sorted out the book "Xuanmen Technique".

"'The woodcutter hid the Jinyun Sword in the deep valley and painstakingly practiced the Xuanmen Technique every day.

"'Thirty years later, I finally got the true meaning of "Xuanmen Technique", which can reach heaven and earth, communicate with ghosts and gods, and become an unprecedented mystic master.

"'In honor of Bo Yi Shuqi, the woodcutter combined the names of the two as surnames. Calling himself Yiqi Shansuo.

"'The woodcutter thought again, in order to thank Cheng Tang for the kindness of building the Lonely Bamboo Country, Bo Yi Shuqi stopped the horses and admonished the soldiers, which shows their deep affection for the Lonely Bamboo Country. It was decided to let the Lonely Bamboo Kingdom survive for generations on this Shouyang Mountain. He called himself Guzhu Gong.

"'This woodcutter is my ancestor, the first generation of lonely bamboo princes. ’”
