The black robe took a deep breath of air: "I almost forgot that there is such a thing as a mirage, and in the desert, there are huge sandstorms. If there is really a magical power that can do wonders, we can use these to create all kinds of illusions.
But, facing such power of heaven and earth, Lu Guang can actually block it?"
The ancestor said calmly: "Yes, because at that time, Lu Guang was accompanied by monks who were good at Taoism, magic and immortality. He was Wang Jia, a very famous Taoist in the Guanzhong area. This man had a high level of cultivation and was a famous member of the righteous Taoist lineage.
The monk wanted to go to the Tianshan Mountains of West Kunlun to explore the traces of the Queen Mother of the West, so he went on an expedition with Lu Guang's army. He watched the sky at night and knew the sky in the Western Regions.
The god would help, and he knew that he was good at using illusions and sandstorms, so he made preparations early. He asked Lu Guang to cut down trees, made ten times the number of arrows as usual, and set up a deep trench outside the city to form a long-term encirclement point for reinforcements.
The purpose is to complete all the efforts in one battle and wipe out the entire army of the Western Regions in one battle at Kucha City, including defeating the local gods who have the power to assist the countries in the Western Regions."
Doupeng sighed: "I see, it seems that the gods of our Central Plains are still better than the gods of the foreign lands. However, in the final analysis, it is still the army of the Central Plains, whose combat effectiveness is far stronger than these armies of the Western Regions. We fought tens of thousands
The battle of the year is based on this
On the basis of various military techniques and strategies, the ordnance and armor are far stronger than those of the small city-states in the Western Regions. As long as the armies of these foreign lands cannot defeat the Central Plains army through the blessing of their gods and the power of heaven and earth,
Then it will be conquered and the country will be destroyed!"
The ancestor nodded and said: "Yes, so our Central Plains China has developed from a small territory only in the Yellow River and Yangtze River Basin to a large country spanning thousands of miles today, relying on continuous external expansion. Gods in the sky, ancestors
, regardless of the Central Plains or foreign lands, they are all transformed from the protective gods of each tribe. In fact, they are the ancestors of each tribe.
They are just gods. Relatively speaking, the gods of several tribes are limited in number and their magic power is not too strong. Ancient China used to slowly expand externally, especially through connections, to lure other tribes to destroy those hostile tribes together. Not only
It is divided and disintegrated in the human world, but even in the heaven, it can cause the protector gods of the same race to fight against each other, unable to form a joint force."
"When the Shang Dynasty was strong, they let the Zhou tribes who belonged to the Western Qiang tribe capture the Qiang people for them. In other words, they let the gods of the Zhou people compete with other similar gods of the Qiang tribe.
However, the Shang king did not expect that the Zhou people would actually change the
The nomadic way of life was converted to farming, creating a new civilization, blessed by new gods. The former nomadic gods of the Qiang and Di barbarians turned into the Taoist gods of the Central Plains. This was something that the evil emperor and many ancestors at that time did not have.
What I thought of was also ruined by this."
"Although the Western Region is very large, most of it is desert. There are few oases and grasslands, and the population is not large. It is far from comparable to the Central Plains. Wang Jia's magic broke these illusions of the gods of the Western Region and allowed Lu Guang to obtain
After the victory, Lu Guang captured Kumarajiva and brought him back to the Central Plains
, but I now think that this was Kumarajiva's intentional act. He was called a living Buddha in the Western Regions at that time. His magic power was very powerful, but he did not use it. He was allowed to be kidnapped by Lu Guang and taken to the Central Plains.
Behind this, I am afraid that Buddhism also wants to take the opportunity to expand to the Central Plains."
Doupeng frowned: "I'm afraid not. Kumarajiva and I have known each other for many years. He is proficient in Buddhism and has some spells. But if he has the power of heaven and earth to decide the outcome of a war, he doesn't have this ability.
.Not only in the Battle of Kucha, but also when he went to Chang'an or Guzang City, he didn't save anyone."
The black robe smiled slightly: "Venerable Doupeng, I'm afraid you ignored what the ancestor said. What he said was intentional, just like the technique of spreading smoke across thousands of miles that we are using now. We don't have such a powerful spell in the Central Plains.
Kumarajiva can use it so that we can talk here. Do you think he has other powerful spells? Even if he doesn't, can't he summon the Buddha or Bodhisattva from the West to show his power?
?”
Doupeng sighed: "What you said makes sense. Maybe he has been hiding his strength in front of me. It seems that with this old monk behind him, I have to be more cautious to prevent him from letting me go like Liu Tingyun.
Eye-catching."
The ancestor nodded: "That's good. Never underestimate these people with magic background, whether they are allies or opponents. Then Wang Jia retired with great success. I don't know if he found the Queen Mother of the West and obtained the power of the Dao Ancestor, but later in
When the former Qin Dynasty was defeated and Fu Jian was trapped in Chang'an, this Wang Jia appeared again. Coincidentally, it was Liu Yu who went to Zhongnan Mountain to invite him.
He, let him enter Chang'an, relying on Wang Jia's appeal. Although he did not show any magic or Taoism, at least it made people's hearts more stable, and Chang'an was defended for two more years. In the end, Murong Chong captured
In Chang'an, this Wang Jia disappeared. I don't know whether he escaped through Taoism or died in the rebellion. In short, no one has seen him again."
The black robe said in a deep voice: "So, this Wang Jia is a member of the righteous cultivating sect. He helped the former Qin to expand towards the Western Region. However, with the demise of the former Qin, the Western Region was gained and lost again.
What’s the point of him doing these things?”
The ancestor shook his head: "I want to avoid people from such righteous cultivating sects as much as possible, and you'd better hide them. After all, our evil sect lost the battle of the Conferred Gods, and even the Tiandao Alliance must try to hide them.
That's it. Damn black-robed Murong Chui, actually
For my own selfish reasons, I made our existence public to the world, which forced me to show up now. In my opinion, Liu Yu is not the most terrifying enemy. Those Taoist sects who also cultivate immortals may be the ones who want to follow the trend.
Come here and kill us all."
Doupeng frowned: "But since the Qin and Han Dynasties, haven't the righteous sects also known about the existence of our evil sect, and they have also joined forces to deal with the prairie gods, why are they killing us now?"
The ancestor's eyes narrowed slightly and he said: "Now is different from back then. Wuhu has been in chaos for more than a hundred years. I'm afraid that the righteous Taoist immortals will reduce the world's population so much that they will lose their incense and lack of spiritual power."
It is attributed to us, and Wuhu occupies the northern Central Plains, they will also think that it is our evil sect gods and
The monks in the world have brought foreign gods and Buddhas in to deal with them, so they will be angry with us. Murong Chui himself is also a barbarian, which will make them believe in all this even more. Therefore, we have become the leading birds, and it is really a matter of life and death.
It’s time. And the righteous Taoist immortals have a ready-made human hero to deal with us, and that is Liu Yu.” (End of this chapter)
