Chapter 1 Ji Kao
The starlight is like practice, shining through the past and the present.
Zhou Yuan sat under the starlight, listening to the birds and frogs, and sighed softly.
"It's such a bright starry sky, if you put it before, you would never see it. ”
However, although the starry sky is bright and the scenery is beautiful, Zhou Yuan's mind is not on this.
Looking at his thin arm, Zhou Yuan couldn't help but sigh again.
Once again, he was sure of one thing, he had indeed crossed over.
This kind of story, which was originally just a fantasy romance, actually happened to me.
There was no thunder in the sky, no white-bearded old man, no mysterious events, Zhou Yuan didn't know what happened, he just slept for a while, and when he woke up, he was a different person.
By the way, his name in this life is Ji Kao.
Speaking of Ji Kao, maybe not many people know about it, but another name, Bo Yi Kao, maybe you know more.
That's right, it's that Bo Yi Kao, the son of King Wen, the brother of King Wu and Zhou Gongdan.
After a few months of understanding, Ji Kao has determined that he is the Bo Yi Kao.
The name of Bo Yi Kao was only after his death, Bo was the eldest son, Yi was the official name, and Kao was the name.
At the beginning, he was still full of excitement that he could go to those famous mountains and rivers to find masters who expounded and intercepted the teachings, and went into the mountains to practice magic powers.
However, the more he knew, the more disappointed he became.
This world is the Yin Shang period in history, and this time is the reign of Shang Emperor Wuyi.
However, the so-called exposition of the teachings and interception of the teachings, the Yuan Shi Tianzun, the Tongtian Sect Master or anything, are not available.
As for their elder brother Taishang Laojun, there are still hundreds of years before he was born.
This is a Yin Shang that is closer to history, rather than the mythical Yin Shang in that romance.
Of course, it is not pure history, but there are special forces.
This era was also an era when all kinds of witchcraft were prevalent, and from time to time the will was read on behalf of God.
The God here is not Jehovah, and as for who it is, Gikao does not know.
Every once in a while, there will be all kinds of witch blessings, but no one has ever dared to call God's name.
This kind of sacrifice is promoted by merchants, and the tribes of the four directions, accepting the sacrificial law of Shang, and respecting the leader of Shang as the emperor, need to sacrifice to God, the emperor of heaven.
Those who did not respect the leader of the Shang as emperor were attacked by them one by one from near and far.
As for Wu Zhu, he is perhaps one of the most powerful forces of this era.
Whoever is a god is a god who holds the law of Sanchen and a ghost and a god to show his residence, which is a witch wish.
All states and tribes need to set up witch blessings to communicate with the ancestors of ghosts and gods.
However, how powerful these witch wishes are, Ji Kao has never seen them anyway.
Of all kinds of witch blessings, he saw the most prayers, dancing and healing.
Prayer is not as good as singing, dancing is rough and lacking in beauty, but it is the witch doctor who heals the sick, but it surprises Ji Kao.
Although I don't know the principle of their treatment, I am surprised by their methods, acupuncture, knife and medicine stones, all kinds of different uses.
Sometimes, Ji Kao even wonders if he should become a witch doctor too.
Of course, this is also to think about it, Ji Kao didn't even dare to mention it.
Even among the various witch blessings, the status of the witch doctor is not high.
His elders might have allowed him to learn witchcraft, but not to learn the magic of connecting demons and gods, rather than healing the sick and saving people.
······
"Kao Gongzi, I knew that you were here to look at the stars again, the stars in this sky are almost the same from the end to the end, dense, what is there to see?"
A delicate and lovely voice came, and Ji Kao did not look back, still silently looking at the sky.
The so-called one ritual is a year, and when the Xia people were in charge of Kyushu, it was called one year old. Although the three titles coexist, because the merchants are called rituals, the neighboring states are also called the same way.
Ji Kao thought in his heart that when they Zhou people ruled the world, they must change to adulthood.
"What's the matter?"
Ji Kao turned his head and glanced at the maid behind him.
This maid, named Qingnu, was Ji Kao's maid.
Speaking of maids, we have to mention her social status, that is, the so-called slave.
Before coming to this era, Ji Kao knew from books that this era was the so-called slavery period.
However, this is not strictly slavery.
Whether it is in Zhou Yuan, where Ji Kao is located, or the rumored Dayi merchants, there are no large number of slaves.
In this era, as the main labor force, it is still the people.
The so-called crowd is the existence of the common people or commoners in the future. If you don't have an official position or title, you are a member of the public.
The real slaves were only a small number of sinners and prisoners of war, and they were not many enough to replace the multitude as creators of labor, but more for human sacrifice.
That's right, it's human sacrifice, and the living sacrifice to heaven and earth.
At the beginning, Ji Kao's grandmother was too Ren, and ordered Ji Kao and some of their cousins to choose maids and servants together.
Tairen made it very clear that except for the maids and servants they chose, everyone else would be used as human animals and sacrificed to God.
Ji Kao took a fancy to this little girl at a glance, with green hair, which looked different from the others.
The name of the young girl is because this green silk is like ink.
The young girl looked at her examiner, and her face suddenly flushed.
Among all the sons, the test sons who belong to their own are the best-looking.
"Madame sent a message, the lord will return to the house tomorrow, and order the son and the son to greet him at the door. ”
Ji Kao listened, and his heart moved slightly.
"Is Father coming back?"
Although he has been in this world for a few months, he has never met his father, the rumored saint, the future King of Wen Ji Chang.
But his mother, Ji Chang's wife, can be seen every morning and dusk.
Speaking of saints, now Ji Kao's mother, Ji Dan, who is pregnant in her womb, is also a saint.
Even the latter's contribution to the whole of China seems to be greater.
At this time, the place where Ji Kao lived, called Zhouyuan, was located to the west of Qishan, so it was also called Xiqi.
About a hundred years ago, that is, in the twenty-sixth year of Emperor Xiaoyi of Shang, Ji Kao's great-grandfather Ji Kang, led Ji surnamed Zhou to 2,000 times, left the land where he lived, and followed the lacquer water over Liangshan Mountain to Zhou Yuan under Qishan.
The people in other places along the road regard Ji Yan as a benevolent person, and they all come to support the old and the young.
The residence is Zhouyuan, so the state of the state is Zhou.
"If there is a people to establish a king, it will be beneficial. Now Rong Di is attacking and fighting, and I am the land and the people. What is the difference between the people and the others? The people want to fight with me, kill their fathers and sons, and they can't bear to do it. ”
This is what Ji Ji said to all the people before he moved to Zhouyuan.
Roughly speaking, if there are people, there will be a monarch, and the monarch is wanted to work for the welfare of the people. Now the reason why the Rongdi people are attacking us is to get our land and people. What is the difference between the people following me and following him? If the people fight a decisive battle with the enemy because of me, at the expense of their fathers, sons, and relatives, I can't bear it!
Despite saying this, the people of Fengdi all helped the old and the young, followed the Ji Yan family, and came to settle in Zhouyuan.
In Ji Kao's view, his great-grandfather's approach is actually well versed in the principles of soldiers.
Their Ji clan lives between Xirong and Beidi, cultivating the land to support themselves.
The small number of farmers is naturally no match for the large number of nomadic people.
If the land is lost, the people and the land will be destroyed.
If people lose land, people and land will survive.
Times have changed, but the truth is the same.
Therefore, the previous paragraph is just what Ji Ji used to comfort the people.
In fact, their Ji clan has never forgotten that the land where their ancestors lived is still in Rong Di's hands.
Ji Kao has not seen his father Ji Chang since he recovered the memory of his previous life, and the reason is here.
Since the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, only the Ji clan has expanded its territory, but I have never heard of any clan abandoning the land.
Although the people praised Ji Kang for his wisdom and virtue, Ji Kang has always been ashamed of it.
The Xia people, the merchants, and the Zhou people are all descendants of Xuanyuan, the Xia people are the surnames of the Xia, and the merchants are the surnames of the sons, but they are the Zhou people, but they got the original surname of the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor.
However, when the Xia people were in the country, these Rong Di were honest and honest, and Rong Di did not dare to invade the land of merchants.
The Ji clan finally had a place to cultivate in the land, but it was taken away by Zhu Rong.
This made Ji Yan, who had always lived in the orthodoxy of the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, really unhappy in his heart.
After coming to Zhou Yuan, he ordered that the Ji clan, after the male becomes an adult, must spend more than half of his time every year to fight against Rong Di.
On the one hand, although Zhou Yuan is a good place, Rong Di's army can still influence here.
On the other hand, the lost land cannot be lost forever, and there must always be a way to regain it.
If one generation is not enough, then there will be two generations, and if two generations are not enough, then there will be three generations.
The Ji family will take this as a lesson for generations, and it is necessary to reclaim their homeland.
······
The big drum sounded three times, and the chimes played seven times, which was to welcome back the teacher.
On this day, at the gate of the city in Zhouyi, many people were clustered and looked into the distance.
There has long been news from a sergeant that Ji Chang, the grandson of Zhou Gong Ji Yan, fought with Xirong this time, killed thousands of enemies, and gained a lot.
This was a rare victory for the Zhou people against Rong Di after they moved out of Rong Di's encirclement.
When the news came out, the whole Zhouyi was boiling, and the people told each other, and they all came to the door to greet the army with joy.
In front of the greeting procession, there were many grandchildren and great-grandchildren of Zhou Gong Ji Yan, Ji Kao and his second brother Ji Fa, who were in the crowd.
At this time, Ji Kao was nine years old and Ji Fa was seven years old, and they could already be said to stand out from the crowd.
Ji Kao's scenery is beautiful and transcendent, and Ji is calm and introverted, and the posture of a king and grandson.
In front of them were their uncles Yu Zhong and Uncle Yu, as well as the three cousins Xiu Ming, Ji Jian and Ju Jian.
Among them, Xiu Ming is the son of Ji Taibo, the eldest son of Ji Kang, Ji Jian and Ju Jian are the sons of Ji Zhongyong, the second son of Ji Kang, and Yu Zhong and Uncle Yu are the same as Ji Kao's father Ji Chang, and are the sons of Ji Jili, the third son of Ji Ji.
"It's coming, it's coming. ”
As the oldest person in the greeting procession, Ji Xiuming looked into the distance and said softly.
The dull sound of horses' hooves had been heard, and clouds of dust had been raised in the distance.
In the dust, a tall chariot slowly drove up, and a flag was hoisted on the car, and a word of Zhou was written on it.
A young man stood in the middle of the car, his eyes were modest and powerful, his face was handsome and tranquil, his eyebrows were slightly lowered downward, and he seemed to be very easy to speak.
This young man is Ji Chang.
At the age of thirteen, Ji Kao was born, and at the age of fifteen, Ji Fa was born, and he was only twenty-two years old at this time, and he was still a virtual age.
In the era of Ji Zhi's previous life, he was not even qualified to get married.
