Fahai travels through Tang Sanzang Chapter 650: Those who use dance to seduce the gods are called witches; conquest does not necessarily require the use of force
Chapter 650: Those who use dance to seduce the gods are called witches; conquest does not necessarily require the use of force
This Tianchi is anything but ordinary.
I am afraid that the records of it in the True Lord Temple are not detailed.
witch.
Zhu Ye, a woman can do invisible things and can enchant gods with her dance.
Among ancient human beings, those who could dance to subjugate gods were called witches.
The gods among them are not the "gods" of heaven, but generally refer to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that pervades the three realms. For example, they can control the power of the five elements through witchcraft, wind, rain, thunder and lightning...etc.
There are also some witches who can borrow the power of their ancestors through witchcraft. However, such witches have a certain upper limit compared to those witches who can override the power of heaven and earth, because the power they borrow is usually
It is impossible to surpass the power of their bloodline ancestors.
From another direction, this can also be regarded as an inheritance of human power.
It's just that the inheritance of the power of the same bloodline is completely different.
Just like the Tianchi Witch in Changbai Mountain, she is a descendant of the Winter God Xuanming. The reason why she can become a witch is because she can draw on the power of her ancestor, the Winter God Xuanming... But because the Winter God Xuanming is in Xuandu City
She died while fighting against the demon outside the territory, so the power she could draw on weakened day by day until it completely disappeared.
But this does not mean that the Tianchi witch has lost her power as a witch. Xuanming is the human winter god, the god of the north, and belongs to the righteousness of water. Therefore, the Tianchi witch can use the power of her ancestor Xuanming to communicate with the water in the three realms.
Form a contract with the power of action, and then use your own witchcraft to override it.
It's just that such a tricky method is naturally much inferior to those witches who rely on their own power to connect the world.
Xuan Ming is a great witch who controls the power of heaven and earth by herself. The reason why she is the God of Winter is because her understanding of the power of heaven and earth is no longer as simple as manipulation. It should be regarded as a kind of control over the power of ice.
The realm of power.
In addition to Xuanming, Gonggong and Zhurong are shamans who control the power of water and fire respectively, so they are called the water god and the fire god.
In ancient times, when people prayed for rain, they basically asked a shaman from the tribe to open the altar.
However, there are really very few human beings who have the talent to practice "witchcraft"... Therefore, witches generally only exist in medium and large tribes. Some small tribes can only offer incense and pray to the Dragon King and the Water God.
The ancient human race dared to smash those ineffective Dragon King temples, and their confidence also came from "witchcraft".
But in fact, even among the entire human race, there are only a handful of witches who can support a rainfall... And at that time, witches and human kings could not actually live in peace.
There were some overt and covert struggles between the two sides...especially when Emperor Xuanyuan Huangdi and Jiuli Chiyou were competing for the throne of the human king, the conflict between the two sides reached its peak.
The reason why people and witches have conflicts.
It was because the Human King discovered that the witches were constantly assimilating with the power of heaven and earth they controlled. From witches to gods, although they only changed from personality to godhead, this was the beginning of being assimilated by the power of heaven and earth... Then
As their understanding of the power of heaven and earth deepens, these "witch gods" will gradually lose their self-consciousness, completely become one with the power of heaven and earth, and become the nutrients of the power of heaven and earth.
But of course the wizard gods themselves would not think so. They would think that the human kings were jealous of their power and were afraid that they would take away the human kings' right to rule over the human race.
Of course... In fact, the Witch Gods do have this idea, just like the Water God Gonggong... After he was able to truly control the power of water, he thought it would be more appropriate for him to be the human king and lead the human race to dominate the three realms.
This is why, as the Emperor of Water Virtue, Zhuanxu, as Shuizheng, the shaman god who assisted him was the winter god Xuanming, not the water god Gonggong.
Gonggong was by no means a peaceful person in the Three Realms. He fought with Zhurong, the God of Fire, competed with Emperor Zhuanxu for the throne, obstructed Dayu from controlling floods, etc... But as Emperor Yan, Houyi did not lose his reputation among the human race.
.
When Xuandu City was first built, he and Zhu Rong were the Dinghai Shenzhen of Xuandu City... Dozens of demon lords died in their hands. It was precisely because of their protection that Xuandu City was able to survive.
The capital city was successfully built, and those latecomers in Xuandu City gradually grew up.
And in a big battle before the Great Tribulation of the Gods, Gonggong and Zhu Rong used the method of dying together, hurting their origins and almost perishing... However, Master Xuandu took action in time, using the Tai Chi diagram of his master Taiqing Laozi,
Forcibly protecting the two true spirits, they were sent to the Three Realms for cultivation.
If ordinary creatures in the Three Realms were so seriously injured in the chaos, it would be almost impossible to survive. But they, the Witch Gods, had a glimmer of hope because they were one with the power of heaven and earth in the Three Realms.
But not all the witch gods were able to grasp it. Xuan Ming, Gou Mang and Ling Shou, the three former Wang Fuchen, sacrificed their lives in the chaos one after another.
What the human kings can realize, Xuandu Archmage can naturally also see. When Xuandu City was established, Xuandu Archmage took all the witch gods and witches with him after King Yu ascended to the Fire Cloud Cave.
Enter Xuandu City to resist the demons from outside the territory.
Of course, those warriors from the human race who have reached the peak of their bloodline power are also indispensable... They originally came from the same lineage. Although there will be some ideological disputes between the two sides, now that they are unanimous in dealing with the outside world, those insignificant people in the family
Contradictions, of course, don't mention them.
The two sides cooperated tacitly and quickly established a foothold in the chaos.
To this day, there are still banners of witch gods such as "Gonggong" and "Zhu Rong" in Xuandu City. This is because although these witch gods suffered a lot of casualties, their descendants of the tribe still entered Xuandu City in a steady stream and inherited.
He fulfilled his ancestor's ambition and fought to the death against the invasion of demons from outside the territory.
That is to say, the Zhurong clan and the Gonggong clan were two major tribes under the Yandi tribe. In addition, they were very active in the Three Realms, so they had a prosperous population, otherwise it would be impossible to compete for the position of human king.
Tribes such as Xuanming and Jumang perished early in the long river of history.
But in fact, as the ancestors of the human race, their blood also flows in the human races of later generations, but they are collectively called Yanhuang... After all, these witch gods themselves are inherited from Yanhuang.
Bajie followed his master to the west, so he had seen a lot.
But it is true that I have never dealt with "witches", and the reason is actually very simple... because "witches" have long declined among the human race, and even in today's Tang Dynasty, they are rarely seen.
But they are basically distributed in the Yangtze River Basin in the south, as well as in the Sichuan-Sichuan Mountains, western Hunan and other places, and with the development of the times, they all have their own regional characteristics.
In addition, shamanism on the grassland also comes from "witchcraft".
A large part of the reason why nomadic peoples repeatedly invaded the Central Plains is probably the continuation of the battle between the "Witch God" and the "Human King" in ancient times, with both sides winning and losing.
Of course, there is also their own shamanic culture in the Changbai Mountains.
Bajie has not been in Changbai Mountain for a long time, but he has also heard such a rumor. It is said that after the death of the "heroes" and great shamans of the tribes in Changbai Mountain, their souls will not reincarnate in the underworld, because Changbai Mountain is the
The place where the souls of great shamans and tribal heroes return after death.
These tribes have always regarded Changbai Mountain as their sacred mountain, which is sacred and inviolable.
But now it seems that the souls of these great shamans and tribal heroes were captured by this Tianchi witch from Changbai Mountain.
Today's shamanism in Changbai Mountain is actually not developed, let alone prosperous. Even though there are some shamans in various tribes, after seeing them, Bajie knows that most of them are superficial and have no real talent.
Real material.
Many "wizards" are just a symbolic existence, more often the leader of a tribe, used to maintain their rule over the tribe.
However, there are also some shamans who have gradually awakened to the true power of "witches" due to the great rise of humanity. However, after all, they have just supported Su, and their power is still very weak. Compared with the "power of human blood" that has been developed for more than ten years,
, there is still a big gap.
Tribal leaders actually deliberately control the development of "wizards", at least to keep them within their control.
Once a shaman's power exceeds his own, it may not be a good thing for the tribal leader... After all, tribal leaders often use the name of the shaman to act.
Therefore... even if the tribal leader knows what happened, it is really unclear what kind of choice those tribes under his account who are daily bewitched will make between the shaman and the tribal leader.
This is also an important reason why Datang currently does not plan to interfere too much in similar areas.
There are still considerable cultural differences between China and the Central Plains in terms of region, religion, and beliefs.
Such a phenomenon is not uncommon even in the Central Plains... Different pronunciations are different from ten miles away, and customs are different from hundreds of miles away. It is not just a matter of words.
To truly complete a great integration, it cannot be achieved in a short time, but the First Emperor has already given the answer - "The books are written in the same text, and the cars are in the same track." As long as future emperors can effectively implement it, sooner or later there will be success.
It can be achieved in one day.
Li Shimin established Confucianism in various places for this reason.
From the inside to the outside, point by point, spread step by step... The reason why Bajie came to Changbai Mountain at this time was actually because he learned from Junior Brother Sha that the next step of the imperial government's policy was to manage the grassland and develop the Northeast.
In order to achieve more than just territorial borders with Beizhou and Dongzhou, the two sides must have deeper exchanges.
Conquest does not necessarily require force.
Let the "barbaric and uncivilized" monsters in Beizhou realize the advanced and civilized human culture, and let the human beings under the control of sects in Dongzhou truly realize the pride of being human... In this way, it may not seem complicated.
All the clue problems will be solved in the future.
Just like today's Xizhou, the countries there have begun to accept Confucianism. Even some die-hard conservatives still have a tough attitude... But the torrent of the times is already rolling in, and it is not something that their meager strength can resist.
Moreover, even the Tathagata Buddha in Lingshan turned a blind eye to the "invasion" of Confucianism. How could the believers below have the confidence to resist the invasion of Confucianism?
Changbai Mountain Tianchi is located among the sixteen peaks of Changbai Mountain. It is backed by Baitou Peak, the main peak of Changbai Mountain. It is about ten miles long from north to south and seven miles wide from east to west.
Bajie was standing on the edge of Tianchi at this moment. He saw that the water of Tianchi was deep and clear, and the pool surface surrounded by peaks reflected a colorful scene, which was spectacular. The shadows of these sixteen peaks were all in Tianchi, connected to each other.
The blue sky on the top can be said to be that the mountains and rivers are connected, and the water and sky are one color.
Bajie covered the entire Tianchi with his spiritual consciousness, but he only saw the water outlet, not the water inlet. However, the water of this Tianchi has been flowing since ancient times and has never been cut off. It can be regarded as a magical place.
In fact, this Tianchi is not an ordinary thing.
It was originally a treasured mirror of Venus in the sky. During a peach gathering, the two daughters of the Queen Mother wanted to compare their appearance, so Taibai Venus took out the mirror and said: As long as you look at it, the mirror will be beautiful.
Give the answer.
After the two sisters looked in the mirror, the mirror said that the younger sister was more beautiful, which angered the elder sister. In anger, the elder sister threw the mirror down to the mortal world and landed in Changbai Mountain...
It also happened that there was a demon in the Changbai Mountains that breathed fire and smoke, which caused the vegetation in the mountain to wither and the flames to cover the sun all day long. The people were miserable, so the Queen Mother asked her sister to reincarnate and descend to earth to subdue the demon.
My sister was reincarnated into a human girl called Duzahua. When she grew up, she picked up the precious mirror that she had thrown into the mortal world, and used it to defeat the demon, and the precious mirror turned into the Changbai Mountain Tianchi.
As for the Azalea Girl, her origin was damaged by the demon, and she has been sleeping in the Changbai Mountain ever since, and her spirit has been reincarnated in the human world.
My elder sister was reincarnated as Azalea Girl, and my younger sister... was Princess Longji during the Conferred Gods War. She was said to have been demoted to the mortal world, but in fact she didn't want to stay in that kind of atmosphere in the heaven, and she followed the rules.
The restraint made her feel a little out of breath.
Therefore, in a subsequent peach gathering, Princess Longji deliberately told her father and mother about her sister, thereby offending them. She was sentenced to a crime of disrespect, expelled from heaven, and demoted to the mortal world.
It's just that few people know about these things...even the six-eared macaque doesn't know, and there is no record of it in the information of the True Lord Temple.
Apart from a few parties involved, I am afraid that among the Three Realms today, only Tingting and Bai Ze may know about this matter... But even if they knew it, they would never publicize it everywhere.
Hong Yangzi's soul was hovering and lingering above Tianchi at this moment. Bajie still maintained his invisibility, waiting for changes.
Not long after, there were some ripples on the surface of Tianchi Lake.
Bajie subconsciously held his breath and looked intently, but he saw a strange thing, its head slowly emerged from the Tianchi. Its body was black, its head was as big as a basin, it had a square top with horns, and a long neck and many beards...
It looks like a dragon, but actually it looks more like a hidden dragon.
After all, the little white dragon is a true dragon from all over the world with pure blood, and Bajie can still recognize him clearly in this aspect.
Moreover, there is also a record in the information sent by the six-eared macaque, saying that the Tianchi witch raised many strange beasts in the Tianchi, and this black latent dragon is one of them.
