During the turbulent times of the Warring States Period, among hundreds of schools of thought, except for Confucianism, Mohism, Taoism, Yin and Yang...these masters, it was already quite good for the heads of other small families to be at the peak of the innate world.
As for the level of transforming gods, it is the first-level cultivation level of everyone’s leader. Even the ninth level of the older generation of Zhuxia is at this level. As for the realm below transforming gods, for hundreds of years, all those who have been able to set foot in it are
It's extremely rare.
Except for Taoism and Confucianism, which have disciples constantly breaking into it, the other schools of thought rarely break into it. In this way, those knight-errant swordsmen who do not join the hundreds of schools lack the inheritance and find it difficult to set foot in it.
Just like Zhongshan Master, in terms of age, he is actually similar to Taoist Bei Mingzi, but Bei Mingzi has long broken through the realm of enlightenment and returned, becoming one of the top warriors in all Xia, while Zhongshan Master is very close to the time of enlightenment and return.
, but never had the opportunity to reach that level.
Trapped in this realm for decades, he was originally going to open up a sword family and occupy a corner among hundreds of schools of thought. Unexpectedly, he fell into the hands of a disciple of the Taoist family or a disciple of Beimingzi.
This kind of situation is a big blow to swordsmen like them who have weak inheritance. Today, Master Zhongshan's fate may not be their fate.
Even Zhao Zhen said something. If it weren't for the doctor Nianduan's words, the two of them would have been killed last night. Although Zhao Jianzhai thought he had some strength, he was only at the same level as Zhao Zhen.
"However, I am a little bit surprised. With Master Zhongshan's style, he has been in Zhongshan Sword Hall of Zhao State for decades and has never gone out. Why did he suddenly appear in Luoyang last night?"
"Qin Guowen Xinhou died unexpectedly. No matter what the internal cause, all the actions of the hundreds of families were just to disrupt Sanchuan County. How can such things be compared to the war between the nations!"
The last time Master Zhongshan took action was the Battle of Changping and the Battle of Handan between Qin and Zhao. Especially in the Battle of Handan, Master Zhongshan took action and killed dozens of Qin army generals in one fell swoop, causing a strategic chaos for the Qin army. Xinling
Only then did you lead your troops to attack and destroy the Qin army.
The Battle of Handan was a life and death battle between Qin and Zhao. How could the small Sanchuan County invite Master Zhongshan now? Even if the Zhongshan Sword Hall contributed, his disciples would not be enough.
As the top swordsman of the Wei Kingdom, Zhao Jianzhai has been traveling among the Xia for decades, hoping to break the last layer of shackles. Even the battle in Puyang of the Wei Kingdom a few years ago, he didn't take it seriously.
But Master Zhongshan moved for the sake of a small Sanchuan County, which is very strange!
"It's all because of one person!"
"A month ago, at the invitation of Master Zhongshan, I came to Zhongshan Sword Hall from Xingcheng Library, where I met Nangong of Chu State, who is now the leader of the wise men of the Yin-Yang family. Although he is not proficient in martial arts, he has a spiritual sense.
, to control the strange power."
"The Yin and Yang family are good at deducing heavenly secrets. Nangong said that there will be great chaos in Sanchuan County of Qin State, and that is the opportunity for all countries. Master Zhongshan was originally unmoved. Even if Sanchuan County is in chaos, it will not shake the foundation of Qin State."
"It's just that later the Nangong of Chu State put forward a condition, which made Master Zhongshan's heart move!"
Recalling what happened a month ago, and now thinking about it carefully, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but shake his head. They were really too trusting, thinking that even if there were martial arts masters in Sanchuan County, it wouldn't matter if they were at the top of the Transformation God.
Afraid of everything.
In the barbarian land of the Qin State, it is impossible for a strong man to realize his weakness and return. Everything went smoothly. Master Zhongshan was also waiting in Luoyang City. Who knew what happened last night.
"What conditions?"
"Could it be that you want to break through the realm of Wuxu as a guide?"
Master Zhongshan is a scholar of heaven and man. Among the Xia, there are not many introductions that can persuade each other. After a little thought, you can find one. Zhao Jianzhai and Cao Qiudao looked at each other, and the mysterious light flashed. This possibility is very high.
"Yes, you should have heard of the "Yellowstone Heavenly Book"!"
"This book has been passed down from ancient times. For three generations, everyone who has read this book has been blessed by great fortune. Eight hundred years ago, Taigong Wang read this book and integrated the wonders of military, law, Tao, and vertical and horizontal, and became a great man."
"This book contains heavenly secrets. If you look at it, according to rumors, it is not impossible to break into the realm of enlightenment and return!"
The name of "Huangshi Tianshu" is not a big secret to the top warriors among the Xia. Moreover, this book has involved many people for thousands of years, and every one of them is a famous existence.
Whether it was Emperor Xuanyuan Huang who was the first to read this book, or the later Zhuanxu, Emperor Ku, Yao, Shun and others, or the high priests of the past three generations, etc., the rumor that this book was automatically hidden during the Taiping years is completely unfounded.
talk.
It's just that this book had no use during the Taiping period, but it can't cover up the magic of this book at all. It's a pity that since Taigong Wang eight hundred years ago, the whereabouts of this book are unknown. Now, listening to Zhao Zhen's words, it has fallen.
In the hands of the Yin Yang family.
It is a great wonder to be given the name of a heavenly book for mortals to read. If this book could really be read, everyone in the carriage felt that they would agree to it, not to mention Master Zhongshan's level.
"That scroll is now in the hands of Nan Gong of Chu State?"
Suddenly, Cao Qiudao, who had been silent in the carriage, spoke up. He was white-clothed and black-haired, with an imposing manner. His eyes flickered and fell on Zhao Zhen. It could be heard that he was quite interested in the "Huangshi Tianshu".
"Not here!"
"To be precise, that volume was previously in Nan Gong's hands. A few months ago, Zou Jiu of the Yin Yang family was killed by Xuan Qingzi, and Qixing Longyuan was captured. Nan Gong replaced it with the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book."
"It should be in the hands of Taoist Tianzong Xuan Qingzi now. Is Brother Cao interested?"
The injury was relieved a lot. He was half sitting in the carriage. Now that his cultivation was completely useless, he didn’t think much about anything. A little joy was not expensive. It was obvious that Cao Qiudao was interested in the "Huangshi Tianshu", and there was a slight smile on his pale face.
, just ask.
"Interesting, since that volume is now in the hands of Taoist Xuan Qingzi, no matter how good Chu Nan Gong says, it is of no use. After the Yin and Yang family entered Qin, only the Qin state was supreme, and the lineage of wise men of the Yin and Yang family may not be unaffected."
In this way, Cao Qiudao raised his eyebrows slightly, and Zhao Jianzhai on one side also looked at him sideways. In this case, then Nan Gong of Chu State was not deceiving Master Zhongshan. But since Zhao Zhen knew this, Master Zhongshan must also know,
Nonetheless, I’ll give it a go!
"I don't know the reason, but Master Zhongshan persuaded Nan Gong of Chu State to go to Sanchuan County in person, which ended up like this. We have to retreat, and those retainers and people from hundreds of families will not last long.
"
"The plan to disrupt Sanchuan County and the Qin State's area thousands of miles outside Hangu Pass to shake the foundation of the Qin State will not work!"
What happened last night, there is no doubt that the Qin State has sufficient preparations to capture and suppress them. Those ordinary people who are not familiar with martial arts will not even think about leaving. Coupled with the Qin State's troop mobilization, it is foreseeable that the disturbance in Sanchuan County will subside.
.
"Before the death of Lord Xinling, he once said that if the government of Qin can eliminate the trouble of regent Wen Xinhou, regulate the country's affairs, practice Gongsun Martingale's legal system, and use the national power of Qin to control the princes, it will not be difficult for the world."
"In the past few years, everything has been as Lord Xinling said. Wei Mou was involved in this trip, but he was entrusted by others. As for this, the affairs of other countries have nothing to do with me!"
As soon as Zhao Zhen finished speaking, the giant man with beard next to him who was also struggling to sit up said in a deep voice. His energy and energy were better than Zhao Zhen's, his body was very powerful, and the mysterious light on his body flickered more frequently.
Many years ago, from the moment Lord Xinling was forced away by the Wei State again, Xiao Wei Mou had already lost all confidence in the kingdoms of Guandong. Otherwise, with Lord Xinling's ability to command troops, they would have been able to defeat Hangu in a joint attack on Qin.
Guan, suppressing Qin.
Taking on such a task is just to settle some of the causes and effects of the past. Although it is about this, Xiao Wei Mou does not care. Besides, he does not approve of the behavior of such nocturnal villains.
As a former general of the Wei State and a descendant of a military strategist, he has always been committed to defeating the Qin State on the battlefield. During the years of following Lord Xinling, he continued to do this. Unfortunately, it was all over.
"That's not the case. Although Qin is strong, other countries are still capable of fighting."
"Brother Zhao and I were wandering around the territory of Qin many days ago. We heard that Qin is currently doing a big event. Just the mobilization of civilian power exceeds 500,000, let alone the mobilization of other material resources."
"Since King Qin came to the throne, there have been endless wars. Before the end of the year, Chang Xinhou plotted rebellion. The country was shaken. Yingzheng had not been in power for a long time, and the foundation of the country's government was not stable. If Qin's energy was completely involved in that matter,
In the middle, make them unable to send troops out of Hangu Pass, and other countries can change, but other countries can become stronger!"
Hearing that the "Huangshi Tianshu" was in the hands of Taoist Tianzong Xuan Qingzi, Qi State Sword Master Cao Qiudao's eyes flashed with strange light, and then he shook his head gently, not even Zhongshan Master was his opponent, and he would only die if he stepped forward.
After temporarily suppressing this feeling, I heard Wei Mou's words of despair and helplessness. I actually had a different opinion. I glanced around and mentioned an important matter in Qin's country today.
"But the Korean Zheng Guo managed the Qinchuan water and built hundreds of miles of canals for Qin?"
Zhao Zhen seemed to have heard the words. To put it simply, Qinchuan flood control would not be possible for the Qin State for a hundred years, but it would take a lot of effort. Now, it is rumored that the King of Qin intends to complete it in the next few years.
The civilian strength exceeded 500,000, and more than half of the national strength was consumed on it. As a result, the garrison outside Hangu Pass rarely goes to war. This is also the reason. Could it be that Cao Qiudao wanted to control the water in Qin State.
"After the canal is built, the other countries will truly have no power to resist. But it is not easy to build it. The canal is hundreds of miles long. It is impossible for Qin to cover everything."
"If one thing is broken today and another thing is broken tomorrow, it can not only contain the spirit of Qin, but also damage the foundation of Qin's people and damage its national strength, and this will give other countries an opportunity!"
"Besides, this canal is originally a strategy launched by South Korea to protect itself from the Qin Dynasty. If interested people from other countries can exert force on it, everything may not be impossible!"
If the Qinchuan flood control was successful, the Qin State at that time would be truly terrifying. It was surrounded by Bashu and Qinchuan, two granaries thousands of miles away, with sufficient food, and the people of the country would gather and multiply rapidly. This was the foundation of the Qin State.
However, if Qinchuan flood control cannot be successful, it is hard to say. After spending so much national power on it, Qin will not be able to truly dominate the world within eight to ten years.
"This plan...is not in line with the principles of benevolence and righteousness? Although the Qin State is barbarian and unethical, its citizens are innocent. If this plan is carried out, countless people of the Qin State will suffer disaster!"
Decades ago, Zhao Zhen spent some time in Xiaoshengxian Manor, reading Confucian classics, cultivating great righteousness, making extraordinary progress in cultivation, doing all kinds of things, and being a gentleman and a villain are of the same mind.
But if one follows Cao Qiudao's words and destroys Qin's Qinchuan water control, the crime will be huge. Coupled with the harshness of Qin's laws, no matter how small the damage is, it will lead to huge disasters.
"The State of Qin wants to do the things of the world and follow the path of the world?"
Zhao Zhen was silent when he asked a rhetorical question.
Why can't the Qin State just stay in the western frontier and insist on leaving Hangu Pass in the east? It wants to unite the world and unite the princes. Since the troubled times, wouldn't it be better for all the countries to live side by side?
It can be foreseen that if Cao Qiudao's strategy is really adopted by interested people from all over the world, even if the Qin State succeeds in controlling the floods, it will still cost a lot and the national power will also be greatly consumed.
******
Guowei Mengwu was very fast. He thought about Zhou Qing's words and without hesitation, he immediately discussed with Tingwei Yingteng for a moment and went out according to Qin's law. Hundreds of people were displayed on the bank of Luoshui outside Luoyang City.
Each Qin soldier holding a sharp sword has a ragged lawless man beside him, either a retainer, a member of a hundred families, or a knight-errant swordsman. Here, their identities are the same.
There were many Qin people, merchants, and those who had not been arrested. Following Meng Wu's order, hundreds of people were stained with blood on the banks of the Luoshui River. This scene was comparable to the punishment of the Shang Lord on the Weishui River a hundred years ago.
One day later, there were signs that the entire Sanchuan County had returned to calm. Thirty thousand Qin soldiers were transferred to the main roads leading to the Three Jin Dynasties. Groups of Qin soldiers were still searching for suspicious enemies of Qin.
If it was not easy to distinguish before, but for Zhou Qing, who had already broken through the emptiness of enlightenment and returned, with the spread of spiritual awareness and the use of magical powers, one could tell in one breath whether he was a real enemy of Qin.
A few days later, nearly a hundred people were killed on the banks of Luoshui!
Otherwise, this time Mengwu and Tingwei Yingteng conducted a large-scale raid, and the Qin officials involved in the entire Sanchuan County of Luoyang were also directly punished. For several years, Sanchuan County has been Wen Xinhou's fiefdom, and his relatives Wen Xinhou.
There are so many people.
Things turned out differently. In just over a month, as many as one hundred officials were punished, and as many as two hundred were killed again. Many Guandong scholars and merchants were involved. The matter of the theft and burial was notified to the Xianyang government and the public, causing a greater sensation.
.
In order to settle this matter, Qin Wangzheng who was far away in Xianyang even wrote the second volume of his credential since he came to the throne, and hung it in all the major counties and counties of Qin State, especially in Shangdang, Hedong, Sanchuan, and Qian where the situation was the most turbulent.
The middle land.
"Since Wenxinhou resigned as Prime Minister and committed suicide, the world has been in turmoil and the government and the people have been restless. It has been more than 500 years since the founding of the Qin Dynasty. It is unheard of for the death of an official to cause chaos in the government and the people! Wenxinhou Lu Buwei has been acquainted with the previous king and entered the Qin Dynasty.
For more than twenty years, he has made contributions to the stability of the country and has committed crimes of causing chaos."
"Only those whose achievements are great are those who first led the country by worshiping the prime minister, granted lords and fiefdoms, broke the Qin State's false feudal laws and actually supported 100,000 households in Luoyang, were more powerful and wealthy than the princes, and were finally recognized by the government and the public. Why? His achievements are extremely great.
Yan! How can we blame the meritorious ministers for the reward given by Qin? However, Marquis Wenxin did not use his power to rule the country, and instead of sincerely seeking the country, he pretended to be an eunuch and entered the palace secretly, causing the Queen Mother to fall into trouble and commit treachery and chaos."
"At that time, the government and the public were in turmoil, and ugliness arose one after another. The Qin State was humiliated in the world, and it was truly a great shame for our Qin people for more than 500 years! Investigating its origin, Lu Buwei, the Marquis of Wenxin, was the first to create the terracotta warriors! Qin's law has a certain rule: meritorious service
In the past, he did not harm the punishment, he was good at advancing, and he did not harm the law. Lu Buwei's affairs were investigated and judged by the Tingwei Mansion and the Sixth Law Enforcement Bureau, and he was dismissed according to the law. Why? His crime is extremely serious! Even so, Qin did not win the document.
The title of Marquis Xin has not been reduced to the fiefdom of Marquis Wenxin, so how can the King of Qin take credit?"
"At that time, Marquis Wenxin did not want to live in seclusion and think about his mistakes behind closed doors. Instead, he welcomed guests from the six countries to Luoyang, circulated private letters, deceived the hearts of our people, caused the six countries to celebrate each other, and only had plans to covet the Qin Dynasty. Now the people of Qin are in a daze.
Those who only remember Lu Buwei's merits but do not see Lu Buwei's crimes, ignore the laws of the Qin Dynasty, believe in Shandong rumors for a while, echo the conspiracy of the six countries, steal burials, sacrifices and depose the guilty ministers, disrupt our Xianyang, and disrupt our country's laws, how ridiculous it is.
also!"
"If we are not punished according to law, where will the dignity of Qin's law exist? Where is the stability of Qin? Only for this reason, the King of Qin is telling his subjects: From now on, those who conduct state affairs as unethically as Lao Ai Lu Buwei will belong to his family, and their descendants will never serve in Qin.
Huan. The King of Qin also warned the six Shandong states and a group of princes: Anyone who interferes with the political affairs of the Qin State will never be sworn in with them. Don't say that you are unforeseeable!"
"King Qin's words have completely settled the situation in Sanchuan. Zong Quan, Zong Qiong, it's time for us to go back!"
