Chapter II

Ji Kao had just entered the cultivation, and he didn't know how long it had been, but when he suddenly heard the hurried footsteps, he opened his eyes, but saw that Cheng Jun had already returned, and his face was full of anger.

"How? Cheng Jun can gain something?"

Ji Kao smiled faintly and looked at the monarch of the Cheng Kingdom who was returning in anger.

Feng Zhonghe snorted angrily, and then sighed and said: "It's really as Gongzi Kao said, those lords in the Cheng family are all from solid families. What's even more ridiculous is that when I sent people to visit, I found that someone was deliberately tearing the newly made clothes, trying to tell me that they were poor. ”

Among the Cheng clan, there are no qi refiners, but there is a line of witch wishes. When the Xia Hou clan was destroyed, the Xia Hou clan's witch temple was disbanded, and many witch wishes were dispersed, mostly returning to the ancestral land where they came from. But there are many, with some of the remnants of the Xia Hou clan, silently entrenched in the world.

Cheng was originally the queen of Chongli, and he was famous for his witchcraft. For them, there is no special difference between the Jongmyo and the Witch Temple. Although at this time, the gods they sacrificed to had never responded, Wu Zhu still had some otherworldly powers.

Just now, Feng Zhonghe invited the great wizard in the witch temple to come out of the witch temple and walk around the Juelu house, and found that it was not far from what Ji Kao said.

"Alas. Feng Zhonghe sighed again and said in a deep voice: "I don't know the national conditions, I don't know the people's suffering, it's Zhonghe's fault." ”

Next to him, a man with a cloak and a presumptuous wizard costume comforted him and said, "This is not the fault of my father alone, my ancestors are like this, and my father will find a way to solve it." ”

Ji Kao raised his eyes and glanced at this Wu Zhu, but saw that the other party was very young, and although his face was also excited, he still comforted Feng Zhonghe on the side.

"Is this Cheng Jun's son?"

Feng Zhonghe nodded: "Exactly, Dog Bofu." ”

"Bo Fu has seen Mr. Kao, thank you Mr. Kao for reminding me. ”

Ji Kao hurriedly returned the salute, and then said in surprise: "Bo Fu Gongzi should be the eldest son, has he actually entered the witch path?"

Uncle Ji, Uncle is the eldest man, this is the rule.

At this time, the states headed by Shang almost had an unwritten rule that those who became witches could not inherit the throne. I don't know when this regulation started, but Ji Zhou followed it.

Therefore, in Ji Chang's witchcraft test at the beginning, Ji Yan didn't care what his talent was, he just called Ji Chang back.

As if he understood Ji Kao's hidden meaning, Feng Zhonghe explained: "My Cheng clan started when the Black Emperor, Your Majesty was a Jedi Tiantong, and I was already in charge of the sacrifice of the gods with my ancestor. My family started with witchcraft, and if you want to become the head of a clan, you must first learn witchcraft. From the time of Emperor Yao to the time of the Xia Hou clan, from the time of Chengtang to the present, it is better than that. ”

When Ji Kao heard this, he was even more puzzled: "Why doesn't Cheng Jun understand the method of witch wishes?"

Since you want to become the head of a clan, you must learn witchcraft first, so it stands to reason that this Cheng Jun also needs to know witchcraft. It can be seen from Ji Kao's point that this Cheng Jun is obviously an ordinary person.

Feng Zhonghe smiled ashamedly: "The way of Wu Zhu also has a difference in talent, and my talent is extremely poor. Studying witchcraft since I was a child, I was just a witch doctor who was far from sin, and I had all kinds of magical powers, but it was difficult for me to practice. My son Bo Fu is different, he is more talented than me, he has devoted himself to the witch temple, and has learned a lot of witchcraft methods, but it's a pity that he ······"

"What a pity?"

"It's a pity that since the Xia Hou clan was destroyed, the nine songs were broken, and my Cheng ancestor only got a que, and this que, the gods, can't correspond to us. ”

When Feng Zhonghe said this, he was inevitably a little depressed, not to mention him, with the talent of his son Bo Fu, if he could correspond to the gods, the entry of the witch path was just around the corner.

Hearing the name of "Nine Songs", Ji Kao was suddenly startled, and hurriedly asked, "What are Nine Songs?"

"Oh, I may not know. The Nine Songs were originally created when the Xia Hou clan had just established the country, and King Qi brought the world's kagura from heaven. At that time, Wuzhu sacrificed to the gods, mostly using nine songs to sacrifice, and the gods often corresponded. After the Dongyi Rebellion and the recovery of the country, there were no more Jiuge left. Later, when my ancestors ran west, they only brought back a remnant song. ”

"I don't know how many Nine Songs originally were, and which gods were sacrificed?"

Ji Kao was so curious about the nine songs he suddenly heard, and he didn't know if the nine songs he knew were the same nine songs.

"I don't know how many ques there are in Jiuge, maybe Jiuque, or more. The ancestors rumored that the gods in the heavens at that time should be able to be sacrificed. When the country is restored, it seems that there are only three Ques left to worship, such as Dongjun, Yunzhongjun, and Hebo. And after my ancestors ran west, it was difficult to even sacrifice Hebo with a remnant song. ”

"Is this song you left behind for the purpose of sacrificing Hebo?"

Hearing what Feng Zhonghe said, Ji Kao was roughly sure that the nine songs he was talking about, even if they were not the nine songs he knew, were very related.

Dongjun Hebo is just that, the name of Yunzhongjun, except for the nine songs, has never been heard in other places. And the nine songs he originally knew, including the sacrifice to Hebo, had already made Ji Kao suspicious. Jingchu is the land of Jianghan, and it is difficult not to sacrifice the Yangtze River Shuijun, but to the Yellow River Hebo, which is difficult not to make people suspicious.

"Yes, every autumn, my Cheng family has to take a big boat and go down the Weishui River to the Fengling Ferry, which is near the mouth of the Weishui River, to worship the Hebo. ”

Ji Kao sighed: "I really want to listen to it, you Que Hebo sacrifice song." ”

"What's so difficult about this, I'll just let the witch musicians play it for Childe once. ”

When Ji Kao heard this, his face was happy, and he was not polite, so he thanked Feng Zhonghe.

"It's just that there is one more thing, I hesitate and want to ask Childe for advice. ”

The monarch of the Cheng Kingdom, suddenly, his face became embarrassed. His face changed instantly, and it was difficult for him.

Ji Kao smiled softly: "Cheng Jun, please say it." ”

"Now the situation of Fang Guo, Gongzi is also clear. Originally, I planned to get rid of all these nobles to comfort the people of the country. But my son said that this would disturb the country. Once they all turn their faces, I, the monarch of the Cheng family, am afraid that they will also be killed. Now that Cheng's predicament is in a predicament, please ask my son to teach me. ”

Just now, he and his son Bo Fu had been discussing for a long time how to deal with it. But the father and son have never made up their minds.

Feng Bofu said that they could come and ask Ji Kao's opinion. Since the other party is willing to tell them about this, he will naturally not be stingy to help them. So, Feng Zhong and the father and son came directly to ask for advice.

"Cheng Jun is really difficult to deal with at this time. If they are left unattended, one day, the people will see everything and point the finger at Cheng. And if you are in a hurry, it will make the people of Jue Lu jump over the wall in a hurry, and the country will be in chaos. From the point of view of the examination, Cheng Jun is better than being still at this time, first find out a few people who have gone too far, announce it to the people, seize their family property, and make the people angry. ”

"But before that, Cheng Jun needs to make sure that Cheng Guo's sergeant is still not Cheng Jun's sergeant. Otherwise, then find a way to turn it into Cheng Jun's sergeant. ”

"Childe's words, we all paid attention to them, and my father and I also thought about this. We're just thinking about how the nation will govern in the future. Our ancestors had the precept of our ancestors, and we should not be cruel to all the tribes that came west with us. And the people have merit, they must not be rewarded, and we have nothing to reward, so we have to give it to the knight. But I don't want to have such a consequence. ”

Ji Kao listened to the words of this Cheng Jun's eldest son, and looked at him deeply, the name was not wrong, he was a person who understood.

"Brother Bofu, do you know that rewarding meritorious people can not only reward Lu, but also reward people with land. ”

Feng Bofu sighed: "What the son said, I don't know, it's just that the Cheng family is in the gap between the north and south of the ghost Rong and the dog side, and the east and west are the Jiang Fang country. ”

Ji Kao smiled faintly: "Now that the west of the north is falling to the ghost, the ancestral land has been wiped out by my Ji clan. The land occupied by the ghost Rong is difficult for the people of my Ji clan to use up all of it. I can repair a book, and Cheng Jun will send me to Ji's family, and with my grandfather's benevolence, he will definitely share the land close to Cheng's with Cheng's family. ”

Cheng Jun's father and son were stunned when they heard this, and looked at each other, Cheng Jun Fengzhonghe exclaimed: "Is this true?"

Ji Kao smiled and said, "The people of the Ji family never lie. ”

"I wonder if Childe has any other requirements?"

Although Feng Bo Fu showed joy on his face, he also had a lot of questions.

Ji Kao said: "Naturally, there are requirements. Since the Cheng clan wants to take the land of the ghost Rong, it is natural to either shelter, expel or destroy the remnants of the people of the ghost Rong, and prevent the ghost Rong from reoccupying these lands. Otherwise, we would rather give this place to Jiang Fangguo. ”

Cheng Jun hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Son, don't worry, as long as my Cheng family gets the land, I will definitely fight to keep it and prevent it from falling into the hands of Rong Di again." ”

"Okay, Cheng Jun has this confidence. Later, I repaired two letters, one asked Cheng Jun to send to Bi Jun next to him, Cheng Bi and Bi are similar, similar in appearance, and my Ji is willing to help him. The other is a letter to Kao's grandfather, Cheng Jun and Bi Jun can rely on this letter to jointly envoy Ji Zhou. ”

After speaking, Ji Kao did not delay, and asked Cheng Jun to take the bamboo slips, and he began to repair the book. Who knew that Cheng Jun took the already small silk silk directly from his own treasury and asked Ji Kao to write on it.

"Why use something of such value?"

"It's not precious, it's not precious, the faith of the son is the most precious thing in the world. ”

Cheng Jun Fengzhong smiled honestly, the bamboo slip is too bulky and inconvenient to carry, so let's use this silk.

Ji Kao didn't say much, and in front of them, he wrote the two letters, which was exactly what he had just said.

Cheng Jun's father and son thought that Ji Kao would make Zhou Gong make some other requests in the silk silk, but he didn't expect that there were really no requirements. Even, Ji Kao also made it clear in the letter that he would not take a thing, not accept a gift, and pay Cheng Bi and the two countries at the junction of the two rivers and the nearby ghost land.

It was a big surprise to them.
