Or maybe... my understanding of Tao is wrong?

In the world, there have been countless ways since ancient times. The Great Way is at the top, followed by the way of heaven, the way of humanity, the rules of things, geography, etc...

But in general, it can only be divided into two kinds of paths, because the escape of the great path, the physical geography, etc. actually belong to the way between heaven and humanity. However, after the Nine-Nine Human Emperor Supreme Fruition status is cut off in the west middle, the physical world

All disciplines and geography belong to the way of heaven, while only humanities, talents and ethics belong to the way of humanity.

In other words, at this moment, there are only the ways of heaven and humanity in the world.

Humanity is declining, maybe... the Tao that creates oneness is the Tao of Heaven?

After all, I, Li Er, was also a native of the Western Zhou Dynasty. After I traveled west, the battle between Wang Zichao and Wang Zimeng confirmed the emergence of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and began the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period...

In other words, the Tao mentioned by Laozi and Li Er in the Tao Te Ching is very likely to refer to the Tao of Heaven or directly the Tao. However, in any case, in the era when the human emperor's status was eliminated, there was no such thing as the Tao of Humanity...

…

so……

The Tao that creates oneness is the Tao of Heaven?

Rather than the Tao of three returning to two, two returning to one, overturning one and returning to the Dao?

If it is the way of heaven...does it mean that to shape the world, we need to grasp the way of heaven as the core and beginning?

Or... is it the avenue?

Regarding this, the more Qin Ge thought about it, the more confused he became. After all, it was something that even I and Li Er felt he couldn't explain clearly, so he just put it into words.

Shaking his head slightly, Qin Ge remembered the location of Emperor Qin Shi Huang's underground tomb.

When he went to Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum in order to obtain the Tai'a Sword, after passing the test and inheritance of Lianxin Stream, he entered the real underground imperial mausoleum and obtained the edict left by Qin Shihuang.

In that edict, in addition to explaining the essence of the eastward journey in search of immortals, the critical situation at that time, and the First Emperor's hopes for future generations, it actually also explained why the underground tomb of Qin Shihuang Emperor was so prosperous.

You must know that the first emperor of Qin was the descendant of the Zhao family named Ying, and the Zhao family Ying was the surname of the Shang Tang family general. In other words, the Zhao family of Yingxing was the same surname as the Zhao family of Zhao and the son of Song.

The blood of Shang.

In other words, the Yingxing Zhao family should inherit the legacy of Dashang. In addition to the legacy of Dashang, in addition to never giving up the position of emperor, there are also this series of things, such as Wu Geng Shetian's struggle

Spirit, such as various regulations among the ten sins listed by Ji Fa and Ji Chang of King Zhou of Shang Dynasty, especially the most important sin listed by Ji Chang and Ji Fa is - King Zhou abolished human sacrifice and funerals,

It is not tolerated by heaven, earth and man.

How ridiculous is this?

The Western Zhou Dynasty overthrew the Shang Dynasty with such justice, and used the bizarre method of depriving themselves of the human emperor status and considering themselves the sons of heaven to promote justice.

Such behavior is inferior to that of the later Emperor Jin, and inferior to the slander and slander against the Ming Dynasty by the previous dynasties?

Two hundred years after the 20,000 muskets from Wang Gong Factory of the Ming Dynasty were sealed up, they were opened by the Eight-Power Allied Forces after they invaded China. The advanced level of these muskets shocked the Eight-Power Allied Forces and completely convinced them that the former dynasty was a good servant of the great powers.

, is the most sincere dog of the great powers.

why?

Was it because the former dynasty suppressed the Boxer Rebellion?

No, for the great powers at that time, the former dynasty's backhand suppression of the Boxer Rebellion could not offset the former dynasty's sins of supporting the Boxer Rebellion. Therefore, the purpose of the Eight-Power Allied Forces starting the war was to destroy the former dynasty and replace it with an obedient one.

The servant Zhonggu came up to control China for them.

But when they invaded the capital, opened the Wang Gong Factory, and discovered the 20,000 muskets that were more advanced than the guns of their great powers, the great powers were moved.

Why didn’t the previous dynasty use 20,000 muskets to attack them?

Because...Qian Qianchao is really their most loyal dog servant!

Therefore, the great powers were extremely friendly and invited a series of people, including Little Buddha and his godson, who had fled to Chang'an, back to the capital, and asked them to continue to help the great powers control China...

What a similar scene!

When the Western Zhou Dynasty conquered the world, they gave up the weapons of the entire six hundred years of great merchants, and even the weapons accumulated for countless kalpas throughout human history, in exchange for the heaven or the gods recognizing the Western Zhou Dynasty as a loyal dog, and then...giving peace, giving

What about the decency of loyal dogs and servants?

Therefore, logically speaking, according to the legacy of the Ying Zhao family who inherited the Shang Dynasty, after the Shang Dynasty abolished human sacrifice, the First Emperor did indeed do so. His original intention was to use pottery figurines to replace living people, but later

Having to fight against the Netherworld, he summoned the dead souls of the Xuanyi Army, and even sacrificed some of the Xuanyi Army alive to form the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Xuanyi Army.

But in any case, he did inherit Shang Zhou's teaching of abolishing human sacrifice.

Therefore, it stands to reason that he should also inherit the legacy of observing funerals, instead of wasting time and money to build an extremely huge underground palace, and the lives of seven million people were wasted for the sake of an underground palace.

why?

Why did the First Emperor insist on building that huge underground palace, even at the cost of nearly 10 million lives to build that underground palace?

Jewels are stars, mercury and rivers, mountains, rivers, sun and moon, everything.

Why is it built like this?

Was Qin Shi Huang really as cruel as later criticized by Confucianists?

No!

Not to mention that the Emperor Qin Shihuang burned books and enslaved Confucian scholars only to burn the evil books that connected the gods, but retained all the knowledge books accumulated by human nature to understand the world and transform the world. It is also said that the people he killed were warlocks and dedicated to connecting the gods.

The only warlock, the First Emperor, seems to have never sinned against Confucianism.

Therefore, this is simply a trick of Confucianism.

Just like the Confucian saint Confucius and Kong Zhongni said, "The one who started making figurines has no descendants?"

The first person who sacrificed his life with a pottery figurine was actually considered to be extinct by Kong Zhongni?

Although there are many Confucian scholars in later generations who endorsed Confucius' words, they said that Confucius did not even approve of being buried with pottery figurines, let alone those who died in death... In other words, the burial of pottery figurines preceded his death.

Because the pottery figurines resemble humans, later generations directly sacrificed their lives...

Various far-fetched explanations seem to be the same thing, but what is actually the case?

In fact, the earliest record of burials of pottery and wooden figurines in normal history books is from the Yu and Shun period, while death in life can be traced back to the Longshan Civilization period 70,000 years ago, and death in life is earlier than the pottery figurines.

In the archeology of Li Huatang, it was discovered that when Taihao's son died, seventy-two of his wives and servants were martyred. It was not until the Zhuanxu period that pottery figurines were buried for the first time.

This also means that the pottery figurines ended life-martyrdom, rather than the pottery figurines causing life-martyrdom. This is based on facts...

Of course, some Confucian scholars said that this sentence was fabricated by Mencius, not what Confucius said... But, Mencius is so stubborn and unreliable, in short, a stupid and stubborn person, would he fabricate facts?

Therefore, it is openly said that those who use pottery figurines as a substitute for life and death should have no descendants...is this Confucianism?

It is indeed a school of thought that regards Jichang as its first sage and Confucius, who only knew how to praise Zhou rites but did not know how to adapt, as its second generation sage.

It's really...indescribable!

Therefore, in general, the First Emperor was not actually cruel.

At least according to Qin Ge's understanding, the First Emperor of Qin really worked hard for mankind, and finally died violently in a sand dune due to injuries and conspiracy. It can be said that the First Emperor of Qin was also a figure like Zhuge Liang who dedicated himself to death and died.

so,

Why did he spend so much time and money building such a huge underground palace?

It was mentioned in that edict.

The purpose is... to leave a place for mankind to recuperate and a chance to make a comeback in the event that the world collapses or the gods invade in a high-profile manner and mankind has no power to resist.

Because...under the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang, there is not an underground palace, as recorded in unofficial history books. It is the First Emperor who was greedy for power and glory in the world, and wanted to build a world and establish a hegemony even after his death.

But... that underground palace is just a small world!

Qin Shi Huang spent nearly 10 million lives and 40 years to create a world that could exist independently.

A completely independent and barely self-sufficient small world that can be opened at any time by injecting enough biological energy!

At this moment, Qin Ge's eyes flashed with light.

Perhaps, this small world that Qin Shi Huang spent all his efforts to build will not be used as the last habitat of mankind, but will be used as an excellent auxiliary place for Qin Ge to attack the sky with his sword.

Use that small world to seal off the control of the so-called destiny, the so-called peep of heaven, and then rely on the axis of the earth to find the traces of heaven or destiny, and then... use the sword of the Human Emperor to stab out the fate of humanity.

From then on, kill the way of heaven and restore the way of humanity. Then in this boundless world, redefine the status of the human emperor and re-incorporate all the other ways under the great road, such as physical geography and geography, into the category of humanity, instead of letting them remain the same.

Belongs to the category of heaven.

Weiwei thinks about this.

Qin Ge said softly: "Let's stop here!"

"Um!"

Jiang Wen nodded obediently.

Qin Ge glanced at the sky slightly, but could not see the existence of the boundless phantom of heaven.

Immediately, Qin Ge said: "Contact Ham and ask him to gather at least 10 million Kunlun slave captives. No matter what method he uses, I want all those Kunlun slaves to voluntarily trade with me for at least thirty years!"

Jiang Wen's heart trembled slightly, and then she regained her composure.

Kunlun slave...is not human after all!

At least since Taihao at the beginning of humanity, among the nine ancient civilizations of the Nine Continents, there is no such thing as a Kunlun slave, and there is no such thing as a white man...
