My weird life

Wei Huan was about to make a distinction, but Bigan's expression turned grim.

He stared at Wei and said: "After I left the palace, I immediately began to investigate the matter of the sacrifice of sons from the Nine Kingdoms. I have a clear view of the Yindu nobles frequently gathering treasures and transporting them to your family!

There’s no need to make any distinctions about this anymore, Wei.

Although I am old and blind, fortunately, my public heart to serve the great merchants has not completely turned blind. Although I have not been involved in government affairs for a long time, Xin still regards me as the Grand Master of Dayi Shang.

You have secretly challenged your brother many times. You should know that Xin is by no means a stupid person - in this case, why does he still regard me as the great master of Shang?

It's because I finally have some ability!

but……"

Having said this, Bigan paused and then said: "You are indeed very close to the nobles of Yindu. I didn't expect that you could borrow such a huge amount of treasure so quickly. You are very close to the nobles of Yindu." I will report this matter to the king as soon as possible and ask him to be careful."

"Yes! Uncle, Wei was indeed at fault!" Wei suddenly raised his voice. He looked directly at his uncle's face, trying to figure out from this face that seemed so familiar on weekdays but seemed so strange now. I can see some clues, "The state of Zhou presented money and silk, and used it for his own selfish purposes - but that's all!"

Compared with the countless crimes committed by the king, this small mistake is actually insignificant!

He gathered the legitimate sons of the Nine Kingdoms Fangbo in the Yin capital, which caused the world to be separated from the merchants of Dayi. If the situation continues like this, the merchant kingdom of Dayi will not survive, and the ancestral foundation will be ruined in his hands! "

"The Nine Kingdoms have long had the intention to rebel against the merchants. If their power is not cut off and their countries are not wiped out, the great merchants will perish faster." Bi Gan looked down coldly and said, "They are already enemies. Since they are enemies, they will naturally want to Use all means to eliminate them, so why care about their human hearts?

You don't think as far-term or as profoundly as your brother.

Don't be greedy for the throne in the future. You are his elder brother. You have fought with him secretly countless times. He is on top of the throne, but he rarely blames you. This is his maximum tolerance. He will never do this again. Overstepped! "

Bigan originally wanted to tell Yu Wei about Emperor Xin's strategy against the Nine Kingdoms, but as soon as he said it, he stopped it in time. He just scolded Wei repeatedly and didn't say much about the Nine Kingdoms.

"If Zu Jia hadn't changed the etiquette system, I would be the King of Shang now!

If I were a great king, I would be tolerant to Xin Yourou, and be as generous to him as he is to me, and never care! Wei's face suddenly turned red, with flames of hatred dancing in his eyes, and he repeatedly said to Bigan, "Xin is by no means a wise king. He will be called 'Zhou' after his death!"

He actually tried to ban human sacrifice and no longer offer sacrifices to heaven!

Being the son of the Emperor of Heaven, and being the Emperor of Heaven, yet disrespecting Heaven is an unforgivable sin! "

"Dashang revere heaven, has heaven ever given us any benefits?" Bigan murmured, "I have been staying in the ancestral temple for a long time. In recent years, I can hear my brother Wang, father, and ancestors almost day and night. Their wails and cries..."

Before he finished speaking, he looked up and saw a look of astonishment on Wei Man's face.

Wei looked at Bigan and couldn't believe what Bigan said: "What promise did Xin make to you? What benefits did he give you to make you say these words?!

You have always regarded sacrifice as the first priority of the country, how can you disrespect heaven now?

You actually disrespect heaven..."

With a look of disbelief in his eyes, he looked around and saw the male goat that was tied to the stone pier and grazing nearby. Then he pointed at the male goat and said: "There are gods in the world, and all gods return to the Tianmiao. The Tianmiao Appear for heaven!

If you no longer believe in heaven or the gods of the world, why do you still keep this haechi? !

Your mind has been bewitched by Xin!

You should let this Haechi restore your sanity! "

Wei Lian yelled, pulling the rope around the neck of the billy goat, which had its neck raised and a bewildered look on its face, pointing the other hand at Bigan, and shouted to the so-called Xie Zhi: "Kneel down, kneel down!

Bring back my uncle's mind!

Don't make him go crazy again! "

"Baa-baa-"

The billy goat was frightened by Wei's violent actions. Its body kept retreating, trying to stay away from Wei, a human who seemed to have gone crazy and was full of dangers. However, Wei held the rope that restrained it tightly in his hands. Make it unable to retreat!

Wei pressed the billy goat's back with his elbow. Under his strong force, the billy goat finally couldn't bear it anymore. Banglang suddenly raised its front hooves and knelt down towards Bigan!

Bigan's expression was dull as he knelt down in front of the 'Xie Zhi'.

He shook his head, walked up to his nephew Wei, and suddenly reached out and pulled out the bronze sword from the side of Wei's waist - Wei was so frightened by Bigan's sudden move that he stepped back, and the servants and soldiers surrounding him came up one after another. I want to surround Bigan to prevent him from going on a rampage and hurting his master!

"Do you dare to face the Great Master Shang with swords?

Kneel down! "

Boom!

Along with Bigan's final drink, a majestic and upright aura erupted from his body. All the soldiers who gathered towards him felt as if a heavy hammer had fallen on their heads, and as if their whole body was broken. The heart was gripped by an invisible force and tightened for a moment!

Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding...

The soldiers' weapons fell all over the ground, and they knelt down involuntarily!

Bigan's expression was calm, and he retreated with his eyes. He wanted to avoid Wei, but he smiled, with a hint of sarcasm in his smile: "Are you going to compete for the throne with your brother Xin in such a cowardly manner? ?

Even when blood is dripping all over your body, you never show fear!

How did you achieve your human spirit through cultivation? Could it be that you only rely on slaves and servants to pile up incense and gather people's wishes for you? ! "

Hearing Bigan mention Di Xin's name, Wei plucked up some courage, but under Bigan's blunt rebuke, all the secretiveness in his heart and the 'little' hidden under the leather robe were all revealed again. After squeezing it out, his face turned earth-colored for a moment - just as Bigan said, his human-god cultivation never came from being down-to-earth, sharpening his will, strengthening his body, cultivating virtues, and using all these to attract the respect and worship of the common people - his human-god practice Physical fitness depends entirely on the accumulation of incense and human wishes!

Bigan looked at Wei's appearance and felt more and more disappointed.

"If it were Xin, if his human and divine physique were also obtained by the accumulation of incense and human wishes, he would never be timid or guilty.

He said to me: I am the king of the world, so I should naturally accept the incense and incense offerings from the people of the world!

You are so much worse than your brother.

All the plans are used to deceive others with unfair methods, threats, intimidation, inducements, and bewitchments. Bigan gently caressed the head of the kneeling male goat. He looked at the Haechi he called in Wei's mouth and said in a low voice, "You said that I spoke disrespectful words to the sky because I was deceived or because I was deceived." Crazy - in the past few decades, I have been sincere and respectful to heaven.

For decades, I have worshiped heaven sincerely and without any selfishness.

I truly believe in the principles passed down by our ancestors.

how about you?

Do you believe in heaven? Do you believe that this Haechi can distinguish between loyalty and treachery, and know good from evil?

If you really believe in heaven and respect heaven, why do you have to bring up heaven to subdue others whenever something is not good for you?

If you really think that this haechi can distinguish between good and evil, then why do you often feed it with precious food and train it in private?

For people like you, heaven and earth are nothing but your tools.

Now, I finally have it figured out..."

In the midst of the words, Bigan smashed the male goat's head with one palm. The bronze sword in his hand plunged directly into the ram's chest. When the ram's body twisted unconsciously, he took out the goat's head. A bloody sheep heart——

He ate the sheep heart in front of Wei!

Wei Wei was shocked beyond words. His scalp was numb and his hands and feet were cold!

He vaguely understood Bigan's intention behind such an almost crazy move - the uncle who ate the sheep's heart was completely different from the uncle before!

A strong and upright aura surrounded him, a black-golden horn protruded from the majestic aura, and then a body with black hair and beard loomed behind Bigan!

Now in his twilight years, he has broken all the rules he has always followed in the past!

He personally shattered his previous persistence, and now he has established new principles!

He broke free from the decline of the gods and humans and became the king of humans!

"Let's go.

In the future, please don’t plot against your Majesty again, otherwise, I will kill you first. "Bigan's beard and hair gradually returned to darkness, and he left a word to Wei.

Wei Wei's clothes were soaked with sweat. He was so frightened that he turned around and left. With a group of dejected soldiers, he escaped from Bigan's residence in a mess!

Bigan returned to the side room, found a bronze shovel, dug a deep pit in the corner of the courtyard, and buried the male goat in the pit.

Not long after that, another sound of wheels rolling over the soil approached his residence.

Wearing white clothes and being welcomed into the palace by the king, Tianchen Nuo 'Daji', who had never appeared in front of outsiders, stepped on the slave's back and got out of the chariot.

She walked into Bigan's residence, and the first thing she said to Bigan was: "The king's life is in danger, and he has less than a month to live.

There must be a human heart as a sacrifice.

Please give me your heart to save the king's life. "

…

At the gate of Yindu City, there is a large thatched shed built along the city wall.

The drinkers were sitting on the floor, and in front of the disheveled people were wine cups with more or less wine in them.

They were either talking loudly or whispering, and it was a vivid picture.

Being among these drunkards with fleas and lice crawling in their clothes and hair, Su Wu didn't feel any discomfort. He leaned against the earthen wall behind him and stared in the direction of the depths of the thatched shed.

There is a mountain of earth piled up against the city wall.

The stall owner of the Chengmen wine stall was now removing the floating soil from the mountain of dirt with his bare hands, revealing a clay pot that was only higher than his knees and covered and sealed with various barks and leaves.

Most of the drinkers stretched their necks and watched the stall owner's actions.

The wine jar placed on the table of the stall owner had already sold out, so the stall owner took out the newly brewed wine.

After he took the pottery altar out of the mound, he placed it on the ground.

His son built an 'altar' with two rows of stones in the open space behind the pottery altar, and then filled the two rows of stones with pieces of firewood.

Qu sat next to Su Wu and was also watching the actions of the wine stall owner's son. While observing with interest, he explained to Su Wu: "It can be as small as going out and returning home in daily life, or as big as the king's battle." Everyone will perform various sacrifices.

Buried in that mound should be a batch of wine brewed recently by the stall owner.

He is now unsealing the batch of wine. Before unsealing, he must offer sacrifices to the God of Heaven, hoping that Heaven will give him a sweet taste of the brewed wine. "

"Is there anyone who chooses to open the wine directly without performing the sacrifice?" Su Wu asked Qu.

Qu hesitated and shook his head: "Probably not."

"They didn't invite a fortune teller to preside over the sacrifice. Is it okay to do it this way?" Su Wu asked again.

Qu nodded and said: "For such a small sacrifice, there is no need to invite a priest. Just ask the priest to explain the divination results to them after the sacrifice.

There are many fortune tellers among these drinkers. When the time comes, just ask any one to explain the divination results."

"Is that so." Su Wu nodded.

"Master, you see those stones are arranged in two curved rows on the ground - this is the 'Kan Sacrifice' among the five sacrifices, and the two curved rows of stones represent the river channel.

The stall owner needs water to make wine, so it is more appropriate to use the Kan Sacrifice.

It is also possible to use the 'She Sacrifice' to sacrifice to the gods of the land, but the requirements of the She Sacrifice are higher, and it is not as convenient as the Kan Sacrifice." Qu took the initiative to explain to Su Wu.

Deep inside the thatched shed, after the stall owner and his son set up the altar, they lit the firewood in the ‘river’ and threw a tortoise shell into the gradually burning fire.

Turtle shells are also a kind of currency today.

It can not only be traded as a commodity and circulated among people, but is also often used for sacrificial divination.

After throwing the tortoise shell into the fire, the stall owner and his son knelt on the ground, shouting loudly, mostly praying to the gods to make the sweet wine he brewed this time sweeter and more intoxicating.

Su Wu turned his eyes away from this small sacrifice and looked elsewhere.

There were more than ten wine stalls set up around the gate of the current Yindu city, so that the sweet aroma of sweet wine was floating all over the street.

Or because there were so many people entering Yindu today, the sweet wine sold by more than ten wine stalls was mostly sold out.

At this time, there were also several other wine stalls performing the ‘Kan Sacrifice’.

The sacrifice at a wine stall was almost over. The stall owner used a wooden stick to pull out a tortoise shell from the ashes. He didn't care that the tortoise shell was still hot, and held it high up, calling on the onlookers to ask the diviners among them to come out and help him "divine".

Ordinary diviners who did not enter the level of "adult Nuo" had the same status as ordinary common people.

When they walked into the crowd, others might not be able to distinguish them from common people.

But after all, because they were diviners, they were treated differently than common people.
