Chapter 193 Bottom Line
In history, Zhuge Wuhou made many inventions, including the Qimen Bagua, the Kongming Lantern, the Zhuge Crossbow, the Steamed Buns, the Wooden Ox and the Horse, the Bridge Gun, etc. The inventions that surprised Ye Feng the most included landmines. When Zhuge Liang besieged Sima Yi in the valley above.
Sima Yi was burned by the fire and had no way to escape. When Zhuge Liang was about to use a mine, it rained heavily. The fire extinguished the mine and the fuse broke. Zhuge Liang sighed, "It's up to people to plan, and it's up to God to succeed."
And this has to be said about a person who is closely related to Wu Hou, Wu Hou’s wife Huang Yueying
"Xiangyang Qi Jiuji" records that his father said that he was ugly in appearance, with yellow hair and dark skin, but his talent was comparable to that of Zhuge Liang. There is a proverb in the countryside "Don't be like Kong Ming when choosing a wife, and you will get an ugly girl like A Cheng". However,
In Huang Yueying's hometown, today's Xiangyang, Hubei Province, in the temple built by the locals for this talented woman, she is not ugly at all. Let's stop here first.
According to the literature, Huang Yueying's intelligence is reflected in ingenuity and invention. Zhuge Kongming's wooden ox and flowing horse were inspired by Huang Yueying's invention. As for Huang Yueying's ingenuity, the most talked about in later generations is Huang Yueying's puppet technique.
Legend has it that Huang Yueying created a puppet woman to sell meat in the market. Her speech, behavior, skin color and expression were just like a living person. No one noticed anything unusual in the market for several days. Until later, a man expressed his feelings to the puppet woman, which scared Huang Yueying.
The next day, I didn’t dare to put the puppet in the market. There were many absurdities in this legend. The funniest thing is that if Huang Yueying had a brain twitch and let the puppet girl marry her, the man would find out during the wedding that it was an inflatable doll that would do things.
What do you think, but if you are a modern person, it shouldn’t be a big problem. But this also illustrates Huang Yueying’s puppet skills.
But the art of puppetry is certainly not her first creation, so where did she learn it? There is no way to verify this. The only thing that is known is that the art of puppetry has existed in southern Xinjiang since ancient times. We all know that after death, the whole body of the body is
It will become stiff. The man who used corpse insects to create corpse soldiers must have also used similar puppet structures in the body of corpse soldiers. Otherwise, facing a bunch of popsicles that can only jump up and down, they can still be exterminated. Then
They are just pigs, they were stupid to death
As for things like witchcraft, there are no relevant records in the documents given by Chi Yueling, but Ye Feng does know a lot about this.
The history of witchcraft appearing in Huaxia is very old. In primitive society, because humans had relatively little knowledge and did not understand certain situations that occurred in this society, they combined thunder, lightning, rain, and volcanic eruptions in nature.
, earthquakes and other phenomena mistakenly think that a certain god is angry, and they are in constant fear all day long, fearing that God will send disasters to them if they are unhappy, just like diseases, plagues, etc.
Therefore, primitive humans used certain things to worship, because they felt that these things were the incarnations of gods, and that gods evolved from these things. This gave rise to "totem worship". Worship involves certain rituals.
, through these rituals, people express their piety to God, and also express some of their wishes, such as having children, longevity, hoping for good weather and a good harvest, etc., and if there is a ritual, there must be a leader.
Such people organize various rituals and convey people's wishes to gods. Such people are called "witches" or become sacrifices in some places. For example, in southern Xinjiang, they are called shamans.
It is not difficult to see that the existence of witches is related to the belief in gods, but most people outside southern Xinjiang believe in so-called good gods in a positive sense. But witches in southern Xinjiang represent not only good gods, but also
The so-called evil god
Witchcraft is a technique that attempts to use supernatural and mysterious power to influence or control certain people and things. The functions can include praying for help, summoning spirits, cursing, exorcising ghosts, avoiding evil, etc. Perhaps what Ye Feng is most interested in is...
Call the soul, but the call can only be used on people who have just died. The shorter the time, the higher the success rate, and the longer the time, the easier it is to fail. But Ye Feng guesses that the success rate is really related to whether the soul is still wandering in the world, because
Even two people who have just died will still succeed or fail. It has nothing to do with time. When the soul of a person dies before entering the underworld and wandering in the world, witchcraft can use the connection between the soul and the body to summon.
, the success rate is very high at this time, but once you go to the underworld, the soul will be under the control of the underworld. At that time, if you call the soul again, you are basically competing for business with the underworld. If you don't fail, who will lose? Of course you
Except for the legendary monkey who can kill and overthrow the underworld.
Generally speaking, the power involved in witchcraft, that is, witchcraft, seems to Ye Feng to be more like a mixture of divine power, human power, and yin power. Inner qi and yin power are closely related to each other.
It is far higher than divine power, so although there is divine power, witchcraft is destined to be a technique that people explore downward, not upward.
There are only so many things that Ye Feng is interested in, so it can be considered a fruitful harvest.
As for the five people in Southern Xinjiang, Ye Feng played a little trick. When Ye Feng was telling Chi Yueling about those things on the plane, wasn't there lightning and thunder outside the plane? Ye Feng was actually testing. He could tell
The bottom line of that war was there. To use a clichéd phrase nowadays, it was just frantically testing on the edge of being punished by heaven. The bottom line was tested, as long as the relevant news was not clearly conveyed to others with a clear voice.
From the beginning, Ye Feng could see that Chi Yueling's composition was very poor. It would be good to be able to express his own thoughts in the article at least five or six times, but for the old man Chi Rong, this five or six achievement was enough. Ye Feng wanted the old man to face difficulties and overcome them.
Retreat, don't get your granddaughter involved, take her away quickly. This is also why the old man thinks that Ye Feng is a thousand-year-old fox.
In fact, Ye Feng knew from the beginning that Chi Yueling's identity was extraordinary, because people from southern Xinjiang rarely moved around other places. A young girl with superb Gu skills suddenly appeared. You said she was just an ordinary person.
, fantasy novels are not written like this. Ye Feng just didn’t expect that in addition to the Chi family, he would also lead the Zhuge family out
But what Ye Feng didn't expect was that this old man named Chi Rong was so ruthless that he would still let his granddaughter get involved, who was probably not his biological child. The old man was telling the truth when he said that Chi Yueling would be betrothed to him. For them,
Women have always been just a tool for marriage to ensure family interests. At this point, family affection is pale and powerless. If you go forward, you will cling to the dividends of the possible rise of the human race, but if you go back, you will just lose a tool, and it will only be a possibility.
So Ye Feng wanted to beat Chi Rong sincerely. For this reason, Ye Feng never taught Chi Yueling anything that might touch the bottom line.
