Chapter 17 - Worship of Emperor Shun

On the other hand, in Fan Li's camp. Zhang Tie said happily: "Haha … …. We can celebrate the great defeat of Shi Xie's army tonight! " I shook my head. "No! One had to know that victory was not one's own pride, and defeat was not one's discouragement. Victory and defeat often happened in a single moment, my army just won against Shi Xie for a while, Shi Xie is extremely likely to launch a sneak attack! So we have to be more cautious than usual, just in case! Pass down the order to strengthen our defenses! " Everyone: "Yes!"

Shi Xie led the way. Shi Xie asked the scout: "What's the situation like before?" Scouts: "Master, the enemy is heavily guarded, General Shi Wu is at a disadvantage!" Shi Xie's right hand shook as he hatefully said, "Damn it! If they continued to fight, there would be no more benefits! Retreat! The entire army retreat! "

When I heard that Shi Xie had sent people over to negotiate, I asked in shock, "What? Shi Xie sent messengers to negotiate with me, and to return back to the other counties that we lost? What was going on? This is unbelievable! " Chen Zhi laughed: "Shi Xie would not be so kind! If he does not do this, he will be destroyed by others! " I asked with interest, "What is it?" Chen Zhi: "According to reliable intelligence, xanthopanax was defeated by various warlords in the Central Plains and moved here. xanthopanax invaded Jingzhou, Yizhou, Jiao Prefecture. Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao and Yizhou Mu Liu Yan do not like xanthopanax, they are allying together to eliminate xanthopanax! I think Shi Xie will definitely join forces with Liu Biao and Liu Yan if he has no other choice! He has no time to bother with us! "

I laughed out loud. "Even so, we will still fight against the xanthopanax in the future! Because the xanthopanax wants to take down the Jiao Prefecture, to become its master, I guess the xanthopanax will attack us! So we have to be careful! " Chen Zhi nodded in agreement, "Not bad!"

Thus, Shi Xie and I made peace, and Shi Xie returned to his territory to defend against the attacks of the xanthopanax.

I will lead the troops to defend the two counties, Yu Lin and Cangwu. The reason that I took over Cangwu County was to pay my respects to Emperor Shun. I came to the Chicken Rock at the southern foot of Mount Baiyun. It is said that Emperor Shun was buried here, so Shun Ling was built here. However, Emperor Shun's Tomb in Lingling County is widely acknowledged. As for whether he was buried in his clothes or not, no one knows. However, I also have to offer sacrifices to Emperor Shun to show my respect. I performed the ritual of worshiping respectfully. I prayed, "May Emperor Shun protect the people of the Jiao Prefecture from the flames of war! Please bless the people of Jiao Prefecture! "

"Look!" Quickly come and take a look! " "A soldier shouted." What? "What?" The other soldiers shouted at the sight of the soldier. They wanted to know why.

The soldier held an opened fruit in one hand and a wet cloth with the other, and said: "When I was resting under the tree, one of the fruits fell down, and when I opened it, I saw a cloth inside that read: 'Fan Li ends the chaotic world!'" As he spoke, the soldier raised the cloth in his hand and waved it towards the crowd.

Someone snatched it over and read the words written on the cloth climbing the mountain, "Fan Li has ended this chaotic world!" After everyone heard this, their gazes all gathered on me. They discussed animatedly, "Could it be that Emperor Shun is planning to end this chaotic period of strife in the Lord Fan?" Earlier, there was a rumor that Fan Li and the other three brothers would become the masters of the Jiao Prefecture. From this, it seems that it is really possible! " The Lord Fan was someone who belonged to a family of destiny, no wonder Shi Xie couldn't hurt him no matter how he wanted to! Furthermore, we have obtained the Cangwu County! " Look! The incense for Emperor Shun burns exceptionally quickly and flourishes exceptionally well. Isn't Emperor Shun happy? " Everyone was even more astonished by this fact.

To tell the truth, I burn incense worship, why incense burning so bright, I do not know. However, people believed that when worshiping, the incense was burning brilliantly. Those who were worshiped would be happy, and those who paid their respects would also be happy, because they had done their best to show their filial piety.

"Come quickly and take a look!" When I was resting under the tree just now, the bark naturally fell down, revealing the same words as the one written on the cloth: "Fan Li has ended this chaotic world!" A soldier who seemed very honest pointed to the tree trunk where the bark had fallen off and said.

Chen Zhi enjoyed everything in front of him to his heart's content. He was proud of everything that happened in front of him, as if it was his masterpiece. Suddenly, something unexpected happened. A soldier said loudly, "There are words like that in the tree?" "Then I'll peel off the bark of a tree and see if there are any words like that." Chen Zhi was shocked when he heard it. He glared fiercely at the soldier, his forehead perspiring profusely and his palms sweating non-stop. He held his breath as he watched the soldier's every move. And I also saw Chen Zhi's abnormal actions.

The soldier strode to a tree, took out his dagger, and began sharpening the bark. Chen Zhi could not help but close his eyes, his heart feeling uneasy. The soldier shouted excitedly, "Look! This tree has its own bark after being peeled off! And there is also Fan Li who has pacified this chaotic world! " Chen Zhi heaved a sigh of relief.

As a result of his confirmation, the soldiers flared up and expressed their allegiance to me. I could not see the truth in all of this. I secretly asked Chen Zhi: "Second brother, did you do this?" Chen Zhi laughed and said: "Fourth brother, what we need now is the human heart! This was the best way to condense the human heart! In order for us to gain a foothold in Yu Lin and Cangwu, we have no choice but to use the will of heaven! Don't forget, the reason why Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were able to speak the truth was because they wanted the soldiers to be willing to follow their lead on the pretext of heaven's will. Only then would it be possible to move the wind and waves! In terms of heaven's will, it seemed like it was nothing, but when it was used properly, it had astonishing effects! If not, the rulers of the past would make the words of the demons the sin of the fallen, and the rulers of the past would call themselves the Son of Heaven for the convenience of their own rule! Heaven's will was also a very important political means at times! Although it is not necessarily real, it might be ethereal! "

Hearing Chen Zhi's words, I couldn't find any reason to oppose it, because what he said was the truth, and it was the same for all the rulers in history. The king of war, Zhou, jumped onto the ship to signify his victory; the son of the Scarlet Emperor, who had seventy-two moles on his feet, took the rebellion of the White Snake to receive orders from heaven, and the whole world built up our mighty man. Everything in history, the capture of a river or the consolidation of a river or mountain, was more or less related to the will of heaven. The theory of heaven had been deeply embedded in people's hearts and had become a very, very effective political method!

"Emperor Shun sent an auspicious sign that our Master Guild would end this chaotic world! Our Guild ends this chaotic world! We vow to be loyal to our lord! "We will follow our lord to achieve great deeds and end this chaotic world!" The soldiers cheered, waving their weapons as if they had already become the conquerors of the entire world.

I can only express my admiration for this kind of instant effect. Actually, it was all thanks to the fact that this happened in front of Emperor Shun's tomb, and in the name of Emperor Shun. I said to the generals, "I heard that the Cangwu is the dragon's capital, but this dragon got its name because of Long Mu! I want to choose a day to pay my respects to Long Mu! " Wu Da nodded and said, "Alright! Good! "My lord, I will bring you there on the auspicious day!" "Yes!" I nodded.

When I went to pay my respects to Long Mu, it was raining heavily. He didn't expect that this would become the reason why the soldiers thought that he was under Long Mu's protection, because the moment the dragon released its might it became a storm, and when I came, it immediately rained heavily. This was exactly the reason why Long Mu sent his divine dragon to summon the wind and rain in greeting. There were even many people who said that they saw a dragon nod towards me as a form of welcome. In short, the soldiers spread the news that I was paying my respects to Long Mu in a godly manner.

Actually, I don't know whether it's a coincidence or Long Mu really sending a dragon to welcome me, I can only resign myself to fate!

Perhaps Fan Li did not know, but there must be disadvantages in the advantageous side of things. It was just like how he used heaven's will to call for help and achieve the goal of condensing the human heart. However, this was just like how a two-edged sword would also bring about a strong enemy, causing difficulties and dangers …

[Note 2]: Long Mu, surnamed Wen, surnamed Nun. Born 25 years old (290 B.C.), the 8th day of the fifth lunar month, died in the 36th year (211 B.C.), the 15th of the 8th lunar month. She was born in "Teng County 21 Du Tuo Bamboo Village, or Teng County a capital water east street filial square." His father, Wen Tianrui, travelled to the South China Sea, married the Liang family (Pleasant City Deqing of Guangdong Province), gave birth to three women, and Wen Fengjiao was the second oldest. As a teenager, Wen Nu settled down with her parents in the Pleasant City to weave and fish for a living. Later, Wen Nu led his fellow villagers to open mountains and rivers, to control the flood of the West River, and to do his best for the benefit of the people. On August 15, 211 B.C., when Nun was on her way to the capital from Wuzhou to Guilin on a boat, she died of an illness and returned to the Pleasant City, where she died at the age of 79. Legend has it that she raised the Five Dragons, and made use of the growing up Five Dragons to summon the rain and wind. She opened up the mountains, governed the Western River, and was therefore known as Long Mu, from the Qin Shi Huang to the Qing Dynasty, Long Mu was bestowed the title of the feudal emperor. As a memorial to Long Mu, the later generations constructed hundreds of Long Mu temples along the Xijiang River and throughout the country, with the Pleasant City and Wu Zhou as the center. Long Mu is famous in Pearl River Basin, especially in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao. Her influence and popularity are comparable to Mazu's. When the various Long Mu temples were connected together, it became a travel route for Long Mu's culture.

Next chapter brilliant content: Gao Sheng said and then a spear shot at me, I tilted my head to dodge the gun. Gao Sheng once again thrust his spear at me. As I leaned to avoid the spear, I swung my sword at Gao Sheng. Gao Sheng pulled back his spear to block it, blocking my sword. I did not give Gao Sheng a chance to catch his breath, and continued to thrust my sword at him. Gao Sheng was busy defending against my attacks. Gao Sheng thought to himself, "In close combat, my long spear simply cannot be used! My weapon is long, his weapon is short, why not use a long shot short! Good! Just attack him from afar! "

As Gao Sheng thought of this, he stopped Ma Lian and retreated a few steps. He reckoned that his long spear could attack me, but my sword was unable to attack him at this distance. My sword is simply unable to pierce Gao Sheng, I can only be busy dealing with Gao Sheng's attack.
