It’s so bad that I have declined. I have been miserable all my life, and my friends have been scattered. Only a few are left now! My white hair hangs three thousand feet in the sky, and I smile at everything in the world. What can make you happy? I see how charming the green mountains are, and I don’t expect the green mountains to see me like this. Emotion and appearance
, slightly similar.
A statue is scratching its head in the east window. Thinking of Yuan Ming, the poem "Stop the Clouds" was written, and the flavor is at this time. Those who are in deep sleep in Jiangzuo seeking fame, don't know the wonderful principles of turbid wine. Looking back, the clouds are flying and the wind is blowing. I don't hate the ancients for not seeing me,
I hate that the ancients didn't see my crazy ears. Those who know me are two or three sons.

…
Why did Bai Fu leave in such a hurry?
Because of the mess that was lingering in his mind, he finally found the thread:
Li Chu used an inkstone to smash cracks on the wall like spider webs, and the wall with words was like a huge puzzle.
"If you find all the original stones of the ruined stele and put them together like a puzzle, wouldn't this be what it looks like?"
Bai Fu suddenly had an idea and finally came up with a way to restore the text on the ruined stele.
The ruined stele found in the Forest of Steles was chiselled into hundreds of raw stones, which were used to repair other valuable stone stele. Since it was impossible to cut out the original stones of these ruined stele again, Bai Fu has been unable to restore the complete picture of the ruined stele, and it is impossible to know the remains of the stele.
The arrangement order of the oracle bone inscriptions on the stele.
Therefore, although Bai Fu deciphered the oracle bone inscriptions, he still could not know the content recorded on this broken tablet.
The puzzle method allowed Bai Fu to find an idea:
Although the original stones of these ruined monuments cannot be cut out again, the repair marks on the valuable stone monuments can be traced out. In this way, you can roughly know what each original stone looked like when it was cut from the ruined monuments.
Then cut the rubbings into the shape of the original stone of the ruined stele, and put them together like a puzzle. According to the puzzle method, these rubbings with different teeth are put together one by one.
We can piece together the original appearance of the entire fragment of the stele, and we can also know the order in which the oracle bone characters appeared.
Finally, by matching the oracle bone inscriptions with the Chinese characters one-to-one, we can decipher the inscription on this ruined stele!
Once the window paper is punctured, the method is actually very simple.
Bai Fu was so happy that he put the fight with Li Chu out of his mind, flew over the walls and rushed back to Hongwen Hall at lightning speed.
…
This method was indeed feasible. Two days later, Bai Fu finally deciphered the contents of the broken stele:
The owner of the ruined stele, his family has been collecting history for the Zhou royal family for generations. When sorting out ancient documents, several generations of the family researched the origin of the bronze Jiuding and engraved it on the stone stele using Yin and Shang oracle bone inscriptions.
The stone tablet Bai Fu found in Prince Yin's residence is the first volume, and the ruined stele in Hongwen Hall is the second volume.
Dayu Jiuding arrived in the era of King Zhou of Shang Dynasty. King Zhou of Shang Dynasty was talented in discerning diseases, was very sensitive in hearing and hearing, had extraordinary talents, and could fight fierce beasts with his hands. It was recognized that for hundreds of years in the Shang Dynasty, the king's talent was second only to that of Shang Tang.
King Zhou of Shang Dynasty had great talents and great strategies, and he aspired to imitate Yu and once again possess the power of Pangu to create great achievements and great achievements, surpassing the three emperors Yao, Shun and Yu.
However, because Pan Geng followed Shang Tang's legacy, he burned all the human fragments that recorded the secrets of the Eight Cauldrons that Shang Tang realized, and offered sacrifices to heaven, returning Pangu's power to heaven. King Zhou of Shang did not know how to regain the power of the Eight Cauldrons.
force.
So King Zhou of Shang Dynasty continued to improve the rituals of sacrificing the Nine Cauldrons, and in the end, he even used slaves as human sacrifices to worship the Nine Cauldrons. This cruel and tyrannical sacrifice did not summon the Pangu power of the Eight Cauldrons, but accidentally activated the bloodthirsty Ninth Cauldron.
In order to dominate the other eight tripods and enjoy its exclusive status, the Ninth Cauldron once again extended its evil hand to King Zhou of Shang Dynasty, which deeply affected King Zhou's mind. King Zhou of Shang Dynasty slowly began to be arrogant and extravagant.
Historical records record: "King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty was fond of drinking and having sex, and he loved women. He doted on the demon girl Daji, but he only followed Daji's orders. So he made new obscenities, danced in Beili, and had extravagant music. He paid heavy taxes to support Lutai.
The money has enriched the millet of the huge bridge. The dogs, horses and rare things have been collected to fill the palaces. The sand dune gardens have been enriched, and many wild animals and birds have been placed among them. People gather and play in the sand dunes, using wine as a pond and hanging meat as a forest.
Let men and women chase each other naked, drinking for a long night."
If anyone among the common people dared to complain, and if anyone among the princes dared to rebel, King Zhou of Shang would brutally kill him with cannons and severe torture.
Wei Zi refused to listen to his advice, so he left the capital and fled far away to seek refuge.
Bigan Chi was so loyal that he even risked his life to remonstrate with him, but he was heartbroken and tortured by King Zhou.
Jizi was afraid and pretended to be crazy, but he was not spared and was imprisoned by King Zhou.
Master Yin Shang, the young master saw that something was not going well and fled overnight.
At that time, Xibo Chang, Jiuhou, and Ehou were the three princes in the world. Jiuhou had a beautiful and virtuous daughter who married King Zhou. Because he didn't like King Zhou's lewdness all day long, King Zhou was furious. Not only did he kill her, but also killed her.
His father Jiuhou killed him.
The loyal words of the Marquis of E were offended, so King Zhou chopped him into meat paste.
When Xibo Jichang heard about the tragedy of Jiuhou and Ehou, he lamented privately. King Zhou's loyal minister Chonghou Hu told King Zhou about the incident. King Zhou was furious and imprisoned Xibo Chang in Youli City.
The three princes were either killed or imprisoned, and King Zhou became more and more promiscuous.
…
At this time, the world was in chaos. In order to prevent the loss of life and to get rid of the control of the Ninth Cauldron, the Eight Cauldrons, which had stood silently in the Yin Temple for hundreds of years, upheld the destiny and appeared again.
Bading chose Jichang, the most benevolent Xibo, as the successor to save the people from fire and water.
Xibo Jichang once visited Jiuding in the Mingtang of the Imperial Ancestral Temple, and he was still vaguely impressed by its shape, carving patterns and inscriptions.
Under the guidance of Bading, Xibo Jichang, who was imprisoned in Youli City, suddenly realized the way of heaven and deduced the sixty-four hexagrams and the three hundred and eighty-four lines of the Book of Changes from the eight trigrams of Bading.
The way of heaven is explained by the opposition and change of yin and yang. Because it is said to be all-encompassing, later generations call it "Book of Changes".
Ji Chang's mysterious behavior of deducing the Eight Diagrams in Youli City was discovered by the jailer and reported to King Zhou.
King Zhou was worried that Ji Changcan would reveal the secret of the Eight Cauldrons, so he killed Boyikao, Ji Chang's eldest son, made meat soup and gave it to Ji Chang for consumption.
King Zhou said to his traitor Fei Zhonghe evil: "If Ji Chang is enlightened, he can predict the future through divination, and he will definitely not eat the meat soup made by his son." This was used to test Ji Chang.
Ji Chang learned from the hexagrams in the Book of Changes that his beloved son had been robbed. The next day, he pretended not to know anything and reluctantly ate the meat soup of his eldest son Boyikao in order to deceive and paralyze King Zhou.
After receiving the jailer's report, King Zhou laughed loudly, thinking that Ji Chang's divination was just a wasted reputation. So he relaxed his vigilance against Ji Chang and finally released Ji Chang.
Based on the wisdom gained from Bading, Xibo Jichang escaped from the clutches of King Zhou. According to the map, he found Lu Shang who was hidden in the mountains by Bading. He worshiped Lu Shang as his military advisor and strengthened his strength, forming the "two-thirds of the world".
situation.
In order to avoid being controlled by the Ninth Cauldron and becoming the second King Zhou of Shang, Ji Chang passed on the force contained in the Bading Cauldron to Lu Shang and his second son Ji Fa, and passed on the wisdom of governing the country to his fourth son Ji Dan, thereby balancing the power of the Bading Cauldron.
Strength, against the Ninth Cauldron.
After that, Ji Chang became seriously ill. In his will "Bao Xun" to Ji Fa, Ji Chang warned Ji Fa that when governing the world, he should follow the benevolence and wisdom of Bading and govern the country with the middle way:
"Things that follow the test of yin and yang, if they follow the rules but don't go against them, Shun will hit the mark."
