Chapter 97 The king sacrifices to Dajia, and the book is Zhou Fangbo!
After a few days, choose an auspicious day.
Near the Ancestral Temple, the sacrifices began.
The major affairs of the world are only military affairs and sacrifice. As a king, as long as he is good at war and sacrifice, he is a qualified king.
The scale of this sacrifice, the number of sacrifices, and the joy of the people are truly rare.
Moreover, the ceremony was personally presided over by the monarch, who danced, prayed, and sang, and nothing was careless.
At night, in the large square, a fire was burning. Liu Xiu was among the crowd. Surrounded by noble officials, the King of Shang Dynasty and many wizards walked out of Maomen, passed through the court, and entered the square. .Then the drums started to play loudly, and soon singing came out.
This is a sacrificial song!
Under the attention of many witches and wizards, Emperor Xin of the Shang Dynasty personally stepped forward to sing and preside over the sacrifices. There should be no mistakes in the sacrifices. If they were wrong and the gods were neglected, it would bring disaster to the Shang Dynasty.
"The mysterious bird of destiny descended to give birth to Shang, and its residence in Yin was radiant.
The ancient emperor ordered Wu Tang to govern the four directions.
Later, Fang Ming was about to die.
In the Shang Dynasty, he was ordered to survive, and he was in Wu Ding's grandson.
Wu Ding's grandson, King Wu was invincible.
The dragon flag has ten vehicles, and Dazhen is the successor.
The territory of the country is thousands of miles away, and the maintenance of the people is limited to the whole country.
People come from all over the world to visit Qi Qi, and people from all over the world come to visit Weihe.
It is appropriate for Yin to receive orders, so what is Bailu?"
Di Xin wore a ghost mask on his face, singing and dancing at the same time. Among the ancient tunes, the sacrificial songs were full of hope.
The sacrifice is going on without any mistakes.
When the sacrifice was completed, the nobles and officials bowed to the ground again, feeling a little more pious in their hearts.
After the singing, hundreds of people presented the prisoners to the Ancestral Temple, and then the owl's head was sacrificed. Finally, it was made into a jingguan and piled up in the palace to be sacrificed to the ancestors. This is not cruelty, but the honor of the Yin and Shang Dynasties.
Amidst the sound of drums and instruments, King Wen of Zhou was escorted to the square, and then five hundred prisoners of the Shang Dynasty were escorted forward one after another.
Emperor Xin of the Shang Dynasty held a bronze battle ax in his hand. He struck the ax on King Wen of Zhou's neck and cut off his head. He then used a sharp ax to kill him and dismembered him into several pieces. A wizard came forward and cut him into pieces. The corpse was placed on a plate, and with the plate in hand, it was placed in front of the ancestor's spiritual tablet.
Then Queen Su Daji came forward, beheaded Boyikao with a sharp ax, put him on a plate, and offered sacrifices to his ancestors.
Another warrior came forward, beheaded the Zhou captives, piled their bodies into a jingguan, and placed them in the center of the square.
A wizard took a bronze carving knife and carved words on the turtle shell: In the 20th year of the reign of Emperor Xin of the Shang Dynasty, the king sacrificed Dajia and named him Fang Bo of Zhou. The late king wished him good weather and good weather.
The fire was burning, setting off the view of the capital next to it, and showing Di Xin wearing a grimace mask. Many people knelt on the ground again, mixed in with the crowd, and Liu Xiu also knelt on the ground.
The sacrifices continued all night long.
The next day, Liu Xiu returned to his residence, but he was in a trance.
"King Wen of Zhou is dead, Boyikao is also dead, the Shang Dynasty was too cruel!" Liu Xiu took a deep breath.
Legend has it that King Wen of Zhou was imprisoned in Youli by King Zhou and created the Book of Changes, which evolved from the Eight Trigrams to the Sixty-Four Hexagrams. Finally, Taigong Jiang offered beautiful women and treasures. King Wen of Zhou returned to Xiqi, returned to the Zhou Dynasty, and died.
But in this world, King Wen of Zhou was defeated in the battle and was captured by Emperor Xin. He was sent to the Ancestral Temple and beheaded as a sacrifice to his ancestor Taijia.
In other words, this is the real history.
This is not the future, but the barbaric tribal era.
The era of Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors was a tribal era, barbaric and bloody, with all kinds of vendettas and various power struggles. As for the prosperous age described by Confucius, it was just Confucius' fantasy.
In later generations, emperors would pardon surrendered kings out of mercy. For example, when the Shu Kingdom fell, Adou would be imprisoned and made a marquis; Jili Khan, captured by Li Shimin, would only be imprisoned in Chang'an and not killed. The Song Dynasty
The second emperor was captured by the Jin army and was only imprisoned.
However, the Shang Dynasty was a bloody and barbaric era. If the Shang Dynasty captured the enemy chiefs, there would be no surrender. They would only sacrifice to the Ancestral Temple, kill their chiefs, and sacrifice their ancestors.
[Ding dong, congratulations to the reincarnator for gaining the authority of the Lord God again!]
[The person with the authority, Ji Chang, is dead. The authority is being transferred. According to the principle of proximity, it has been transferred to the reincarnation person]
[Permissions are being escalated...]
[Permission is 100 parts per trillion]
The increase in authority came out of nowhere. Liu Xiuruo realized that in the past, when he learned about the increase in authority, he would have been ecstatic, but now he couldn't be happy.
King Wen of Zhou was also a reincarnator, and had the authority of the main temple, with a higher authority level than him, but now he is dead and was used as a sacrifice to Taijia, the ancestor of the Shang Dynasty.
[Added function: memory privilege escalation]
[Part of the memory of the reincarnated person can be extracted, depending on the situation]
Liu Xiu closed his eyes, and suddenly scenes of memories appeared. He entered the sea of consciousness, and the battlefield scenes appeared.
On the battlefield, thousands of horses galloped, and the Shang army and the Zhou army collided.
Di Xin held a spear and charged towards him, like a tank. Wherever he went, he looked sternly and was invincible. Every enemy was strangled, and every powerful enemy fell one after another. Wherever he went, no one was his opponent.
There is no single enemy.
Boom, boom, boom!
The war drums were beating, and King Wen of Zhou attacked.
Behind the scenes, the soldiers evolved into a military formation and were blessed on King Wen of Zhou. As a result, he was only a great master, but he was able to unleash the fighting power of a martial saint.
The two sides fought fiercely and fought hard, evenly matched.
At the fierce moment of the bloody battle, a warrior wearing armor, running like lightning, attacked the flank of the Zhou army. The Zhou army was defeated and the whole army was defeated.
This warrior is called evil!
The Zhou army was defeated, and the Shang army took advantage of the victory to pursue them and captured countless prisoners.

Liu Xiu opened his eyes and sighed: "Shang Wang Di Xin is really good at fighting!"
In terms of character, Emperor Xin of the Shang Dynasty was similar to Wang Mang and Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. They were both radical reformers. However, Wang Mang was unable to fight and suffered constant defeats. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was also unable to fight and suffered constant defeats. However, Emperor Xin of the Shang Dynasty was an exception.
exception.
Emperor Xin, the king of Shang, experienced dozens of battles, all of which were victorious and never defeated.
…………
The years are passing by, and Liu Xiu is waiting.
Calm returned to the capital, but soon the Dongyi rebelled. Emperor Xin, the king of Shang, sent Prince Wu Geng to lead an army to attack the Dongyi.
The war was going on, but it had nothing to do with him.
On this day, Liu Xiu cleaned up the stall, and suddenly saw purple air coming from the east, turning into a dragon shape, and red air lingering around him. He couldn't help but shuddered in his heart: "Good guy, the purple air coming from the east is not the arrival of a saint."
, it’s the arrival of the true dragon!”
"King Zhou has such strong luck, he is simply the son of destiny!"
Liu Xiu looked into the distance and saw a middle-aged man accompanied by several guards.
The meat show is coming!
…………
"I heard that there is a man named Yun Zhongzi in Chaoge, who can tell fortunes and fortune-telling. He is said to be 'nine out of ten hexagrams are inaccurate, and one hexagram determines the world'. There is also a rule, no more than ten in a day?"
Di Xin walked a few steps and suddenly asked.
"Your Majesty! Exactly!"
A guard commander next to him immediately stepped forward: "This person just appeared in Chaoge City. He has many legends..."
It's just a few sentences that almost describe Liu Xiu in a good way.
"Didn't you say that you should call me Young Master outside?"
Di Xin frowned.
"Promise!...I obey, Young Master!" The commander bowed slightly. Even though he was already a great master, there was some cold sweat on his forehead.
Seeing the commander's appearance, Di Xin was too lazy to pay attention and continued to ask: "What is the foundation of this Taoist? Does he have any features?"
"This man comes from the east and is a wise man. He once calculated that the king defeated Fang Gong of Zhou Dynasty!" said the guard.
"oh?"
Di Xin frowned and said, "This person seems to have a lot of moral integrity!"
After a while, Di Xin arrived at the stall and saw a Taoist priest who had just cleaned up the stall and said: "The calculation of the ten hexagrams has been completed. The guests can come tomorrow!"
"Bold..." the guard was about to say something.
Di Xin waved his hand and the guard immediately stopped talking.
"I'm not here for fortune-telling, I just have doubts in my heart and I specifically asked sir for advice!" Di Xin said.
