Chapter 392: Heaven is the king, and Coix is given the surname (5k)
Is there a corresponding relationship between "fish pond breeding" and spiritual practice? Zhao Qing thought thoughtfully. Could it be that the fish pond is equivalent to the inner world of the "Six Qi Realm" cultivators, and the fish raised are equivalent to the Tao produced in it?
Yun? In this way, the image of "that friend" is actually just a general reference?
"The art of fish farming that I just mentioned is actually an epitome of the way to govern a country." Wenzi glanced at her and Mr. Yuan, and said seriously: "The distinction between the six qi is just like governing the country. It requires
Obtained from the greatness of the territory and the way of the Holy King, we can achieve the best results."
"The universe of heaven and earth, including the inner heaven and earth of practitioners, their owners, or the corresponding 'Dao of Heaven', is equivalent to the operator of the "fish pond", and can also be regarded as the monarch of a country; and the emperor controls the yin and yang and the six qi
The Taoism is the key to developing the national economy..."
"If there are ways to make money, there should also be ways to spend money." Zhao Qing asked aloud: "So, between different fish pond owners, for example, between this world and a high-level practitioner in it,
Is there some kind of 'transaction' that can be made with each other?"
Looking at her with admiration, Wenzi smiled slightly and explained: "That's true. And the currency they used in the transaction process is the so-called 'Dao Yun', an equivalent that can be said to be universal in all worlds.
In exchange for the other party's majestic power and special authority in the world."
"In my opinion, the endless chaotic void and all the worlds can be regarded as fish ponds of different sizes and development levels. The 'owners' of the fish ponds are engaged in fair and orderly competition.
Daoyun' trading, and because the fish ponds representing a world have different development stages, the total fish production, cost price, and transaction price are also different."
"As long as a sufficient price is paid, objects will always fall from high to low, things lighter than water will float from the water, people, animals and plants will grow old, sick and die, etc. In the eyes of ordinary people, these unchanging laws of heaven and earth are not impossible.
Easier absolute rules..."
"At the stage of the 'Six Qi' realm, during practice, by enshrining the virtues of the Holy King and entrusting the Government of the Holy King, the small 'fish pond' that was originally a low level can develop towards a higher stage, become more perfect, produce more and more fish, and be able to
Earn more 'Daoyun'..."
Zhao Qing was shocked. Wenzi's words suddenly enlightened her and gave her a new perspective on spiritual practice:
Treating the acquisition of strength through practice as a kind of commercial trade with the outside world, and using the method of governing the country to guide the practice of the "six qi" realm and above is undoubtedly a very valuable idea and is very consistent with the other party.
The identities of the Ji Ran family and Huang Lao Taoist family.
The mature and perfect big world, according to Wenzi's fish pond-state system development stage theory, is obviously at the advanced stage of "governing by doing nothing". Therefore, "heaven and earth are unkind, treating all things as stupid dogs", allowing the creatures in the world to notice
There is no subjective intention of "the way of heaven".
This kind of "Heavenly Way" is like a sage monarch with noble moral character. The "virtue" displayed by the person and the "government orders" issued by him are probably the "five" required for the next stage of "dream introduction".
"The Rhythm of Virtue" and "The Government of the Five Constant Beings".
If this principle is generalized, then cultivating the inner world is like governing a country. It requires the use of weight and weight techniques to weigh the balance of yin and yang and the six qi. Just like the monarch of the country needs to formulate policies, adjust the economy, and maintain social order, it tests the
Their understanding and application of the laws of heaven and earth.
These "virtues" and "government orders" not only affect the development of the inner world of cultivators, but also affect their own path of cultivation.
…
Seeing that Zhao Qing seemed to have basically understood the relationship between these people, Wenzi was quite relieved and said lightly: "That's it for the story I want to say. Do you have anything else to ask?
"
Not prepared to hide anything, Zhao Qing directly asked some questions about the inheritance and understanding of King Yu's Mausoleum and the subsequent policies of King Gou Jian of Yue, and got a clear answer from Wenzi:
The reason why the other party used metaphors before was to make it easier for him to understand, and he was definitely not beating around the bush.
To put it simply, according to Wenzi’s knowledge, since the Yue State has not collected taxes for ten years and the people in the mountains have even forgotten the management of the country, Goujian is planning to implement the "household counting" policy after the end of the Yu Festival, and
Consider returning to land tax of 20 to 1 tax, city tax of 50 to 1 tax, and customs tax of 1 to 100 tax.
There is no doubt that such a tax rate can be said to be very low for the people of Vietnam and does not increase much burden. The main intention is to strengthen the state's control over local areas and formulate it more accurately by counting household registrations across the country.
Next development policy.
You know, there is no head tax that was formalized by Shang Yang and brought heavy pressure to the common people in later generations, nor is there a series of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes with many names. One-twentieth of the tax is a real low amount, which is much lower than that of later generations.
Many dynasties that appear to be light on corvee and light on gifts, but in fact are often at or above the survival line, are much stronger.
More importantly, in today's world, under normal circumstances, civilians only need to perform corvee for one to three days a year, and they can pay for it. If it is a large-scale project that lasts for several months, they only need to participate once.
They can be exempted from labor for life, and the degree of hard work is far less than that of the feudal dynasty where the average annual labor force was more than one month.
It has to be said that the development of ancient society was a process in which bad money drove out good money and exploitation became more and more severe. Although science and technology drove the continuous development of productivity, the country was always rich and the people were weak. There were also serious land annexations. In the Western Zhou Dynasty,
The Spring and Autumn period may have been a better time.
"I've almost explained your question. Let's leave the other things to the next time!"
Thinking about the impact of the upcoming "census", Zhao Qing looked at Wenzi who had finished answering the questions and saw that the other person packed up the fishing tackle he was carrying and let a golden carp jump onto the ape's head.
On the shoulder, and then toward the hand, it disappeared.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!...
No, it seems to be the two of us who disappeared, right? Moreover, it seems that this is not only a teleportation in space, but also a reversal of time?
The next moment, Zhao Qing was on a wide and flat mountain road, looking at the huge Kuaiji City spread out in the shape of a parallelogram to the north, and the sun hanging above his head. Zhao Qing blinked in confusion, and suddenly recalled a series of events related to her previous experience.
It was a completely different past experience.
It was a memory that seemed to be true from beginning to end. The content was that when she was teaching Zheng Dan in the morning, she took the time to contact Shi Yuanluo, and then she and Yuan Gong were led to the Mausoleum of Dayu at noon.
Wanwei Mountain on the side is climbing close to the cemetery.
Glancing at Monkey King, who looked equally confused, and experiencing this strange feeling as if the timelines were splitting and merging, Zhao Qing thought about the possibility that he had fallen into an illusion before, and suddenly remembered what Wenzi said earlier, "In the eyes of ordinary people,
"Following the unchangeable laws of heaven and earth are not absolute rules that cannot be changed." I couldn't help but feel deeply shocked.
"Although you both have obtained permission to enter the outer area of King Yu's Mausoleum, and you can move freely outside the cemetery, in any case, you must not make any blasphemy in front of the relics related to King Yu.
Well, Xiaobai, just follow what Ah Qing does..."
He looked suspiciously at the ape man who was supposed to be unethical according to common sense. He was flying a few feet in front of Zhao Qing. Shi Yuanluo, who was leading the way, sensed the mood swings of the two people behind him, so she turned her head and reminded her.
:
"In this area where there are many inheritances that can be understood, relying on the temporarily given Si bloodline, normally you only have three days to stay here, so don't overestimate your abilities. Try
Try to understand content beyond the limits of your current realm.”
"The best situation is to find an intermediate inheritance that suits you as soon as possible and enter a state of deep enlightenment. Since this kind of opportunity for enlightenment is very rare, even if the three days have ended, someone will help you to continue it.
Go on until the state of enlightenment subsides."
"Do I need to say which one is more valuable compared to a high-level inheritance that is incomplete, maybe even less than 1%, and cannot be practiced at all, or a mid-level inheritance that is generally complete?"
She lowered her voice and told Zhao Qing what the monkey master had done, and then smiled slightly. Seeing that she was not far away from the formation barrier guarding the tomb of King Yu, she turned her sleeves and took out two inch-diameter
Xu's smooth ball was thrown into the hands of the latter two.
"If you are not a descendant of Dayu, or if your bloodline is too thin, and you want to enter the realm of King Yu's Mausoleum and live safely there without being excluded, you need to refine this extremely precious 'God Pearl Coix' and change your physique.
, thus being temporarily given the 'bloodline' of Si's surname."
Pointing to these two seemingly inconspicuous beads, Shi Yuanluo introduced: "In the past, when Yu's mother was traveling in the mountains, she saw shooting stars flying across the sky, and she dreamed of meaning. She swallowed the magic pearl and gave birth to Yu with a lump in her chest.
.'This precious and rare variety of coix is the origin of the surname Si in ancient times."
"Among the strict guard arrangements of King Yu's Tomb, only in the depths of the cemetery and within ten feet of Yu's Tomb can the 'God Pearl Coix' be planted and bred, which can temporarily give other people the ancient 'Si' surname. Every year,
The output is quite limited, and only a small amount can be harvested during the spring and autumn festivals."
"However, when you refine the divine power of Coix outside, with its blessing, all the facilities and inheritance in the cemetery will judge you as a direct descendant of Dayu. When you gain enlightenment, you will not
Encountered obstacles arising from distant blood relationships."
…
"At the same time", thousands of miles away in Shenyang Village, Nanlin Township, on the river bank on the edge of the mountains, Wenzi took his fishing gear and just stepped off the wooden pier bridge, casually folding a piece of green reed leaf.
With great interest, he knitted it into the shape of a straw boat, bent down and gently placed it on the water.
The next moment, he felt someone tap him on the shoulder, so he turned around and saw an old businessman in gray clothes, stroking his beard, with a slight smile on his face, as if everything was unspoken.
Rubbing the jade crutch with two fingers, the old businessman also smiled slightly, and then spoke solemnly and asked: "Are you sure?"
"It used to be about 80% to 90%, but now it's 100%." Wenzi replied calmly.
The old Shangzi was silent for a moment, and then asked: "Do you need me to take a closer look at Yuejun's appearance as a human being, and use the power of heaven to get a glimpse of his destiny?"
"'To accept the country's filth is to be called the master of the country; to be the country to be ominous is to be the king of the world.' If Gou Jian can maintain his current state of being willing to bear all the responsibilities of the Yue people, even if this country was only a small country in the past, it will have a bright future.
." Wenzi said calmly: "And once he changes his original ambition, how can I not notice it?"
The pace of the two was obviously very fast. In just a few words, they arrived at the place where the child had caught the loach. Seeing the child sitting by the water with a depressed look on his face, the fishing rod in Fumiko's hand suddenly shook slightly.
After a few clicks, several small fish were picked into the opponent's bamboo basket one after another.
…
The scenery of the rivers and lakes at the foothills of Kuaiji Mountain is excellent. The light rain is pattering down, like threads, falling softly. The jade curtains, stone cabinets, and overlays in the distance, and the peaks of Busan are looming in the clouds and mist, as if covered with a layer of mystery.
veil.
In the sky, phoenix-shaped white clouds surround the five phoenixes with their wings spread out, as if they are guarding this sacred land. The sun shines through the clouds and onto the mountains and rivers near the Tomb of King Yu, reflecting a peaceful and solemn beauty.
.
Standing on the east side of the mountain mausoleum, looking to the west, I can see that the entire mausoleum faces east to west, facing Mount Mao, with Mount Kuaiji on its back and facing the Shanhui Plain. On this precious land surrounded by mountains and rivers, Dayu the Great
The mausoleum stands quietly, telling the vicissitudes of history and the changes over the years.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The most eye-catching thing is the black and white Xiang Hall and Yu Temple in front of the mausoleum. They are solemn and solemn, but full of simple and elegant feeling.
The eaves and corners of the palace are high, like a bird spreading its wings to take flight.
Inside the Yu Temple is a statue of Dayu, which is so lifelike that it seems to remind people of Dayu's heroic deeds in controlling floods.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to Dayu, there is another smaller female statue in the Yu Temple as an additional worship. It is said that God rewarded Dayu in recognition of his contribution to water and soil control, also known as Yu's maid.
The Saint Aunt of the East China Sea came from the depths of the East Sea in a stone boat and sailed in the past.
The ancestral temple here is not large in scale, slightly smaller than the one in Kuaiji City, but the materials used are much more precious. Plum trees that are thousands or even tens of thousands of years old are used everywhere as pillars and beams.
The built temples and palaces shine in the sun.
Approaching the moat surrounding the cemetery wall, it is a wide and deep trench, like a giant dragon winding and circling, guarding the peak where the entire cemetery is located. The moat is rectangular and surrounds the entire mausoleum.
The structure is rigorous and spectacular.
Huang Moat is also a waterless city moat. It was originally set up around the city as a moat. Later it was borrowed and set up around the mausoleum. The mausoleum is regarded as the city and the owner of the mausoleum is regarded as the lord of the city. Although there are no water waves here, the invisible
The protection makes people feel at ease.
The Shinto Road that crosses the four sides of the moat is hundreds of feet wide and dozens of miles long. Adding together the four east-west, north-south avenues, there is not even a single convex or concave place. It can be said to be extremely flat; on both sides of the Shinto Road, there are huge
The eight-sided stone pillars stand tall and straight, like giants guarding the cemetery.
Zhao Qing and his party entered from the mountain road in the peripheral area, and then entered the straight Shinto Road. They saw that these pillars were engraved with pictures and texts about Dayu's life deeds and meritorious achievements. The pillar caps on the top towered into the clouds and were full of carved
To ward off evil spirits, the patterns of celestial deer, dragon horse, Haechi, nine-tailed fox, Yinglong and other miraculous beasts.
Inside the cemetery, a series of Yue mound tombs can be seen stretching on the ridge line. The mounds are towering and surrounded by stone walls. Depending on the status of the tomb owner, the circular diameter ranges from ten to one hundred feet, like a tomb.
A small mountain peak protects the Dayu Mausoleum in the center, serving as a memorial to ancestors.
Although these mound tombs have been eroded by wind and rain for thousands of years, they are still extraordinary and undulating. They form a grand and spectacular formation with the mountains in the distance and the arching peaks. It is said that they are a continuation of the layout of the Xia Houqi in the past.
, used to strengthen the defense of Yuling.
It is said that during the Xia and Shang Dynasties, more than 50% of the Yuyue Gong clan's various incomes were spent on the repair of Yuling Park, accumulating a country's profound heritage for thousands of years. In a sense, it can be said that the entire
The Yue Kingdom is where the tombs of King Yu are located.
As for Dayu's Mausoleum itself, due to the custom of "no sealing, no trees" during the Yu-Xia Dynasty and the adoption of thin burials, the view is completely blocked by the surrounding buildings and facilities, making it difficult to see the specific scene of Dayu's tomb inside the cemetery.
…
At this time, in the distance to the west, the outline of the city on Kuaiji Mountain is vaguely visible. This is the Qishan Mountain where King Gou Jian of Yue was defeated and besieged. Since this big city is very close to Yuling, if you move further back, you will be able to separate the ancestral temple from it.
The sacrifice was exposed in front of the Wu army, so the Yue people stopped there and did not want to retreat any further.
The villages nearby, which are clustered in the mountains, are villages of tomb-keepers who have stayed in the local area for generations and are diligent in offering sacrifices. There are many respected wizard families in the village who have been passed down from generation to generation. If they are regarded as
As an independent sectarian force, it is definitely the top existence in the country.
Different from the witches and wizards in other parts of Yue Kingdom, the patterns on the shamans Zhao Qing saw from a distance on the road were all in the shape of mountains. There were few birds and snakes, and there were also fewer tattoos. This was because Yu the Great was the
The Lord God of mountains and rivers in the world has a unique symbol.
There are many cultivated fields in every area of Shouling Township, and the fields are filled with plum blossoms, cherry blossoms and other flowering trees. In this cherry blossom season, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom in the mountains and fields, like clouds and mist.
, the pink and white petals are even more beautiful against the green leaves.
In the sky above the flowers, trees and spring fields, many colorful birds are constantly picking up the grass roots in the fields. They are moving forward and backward, working hard, and seem to be helping the local people to cultivate. This is the auspiciousness of the bird fields in the Yuling area.
"How long will the cherry blossoms bloom? I don't know how long the willows will be green and the peaches will be red."
A breeze blew by, and the petals fluttered down one after another, as if they were auspicious snow scattered by a fairy. Zhao Qing closed his eyes and listened to the sound of flowers blooming and falling, feeling the tranquility and peace of being integrated with nature, and became more and more relaxed and happy.
As she gradually walked deeper into the cemetery, the simple and elegant sacrificial music "Xia Jue" was heard from the ancestral temple and echoed in the valley, making people feel solemn and respectful.
In this vast cemetery area where the main cemetery area is hundreds of miles square and the peripheral cemetery areas are included, it covers an area of almost one-tenth of Kuaiji City. I want to find the many inheritances distributed in it and choose the one that suits me.
