Chapter 144 Guiguzi

The old man said: "This is a small village in the northeast of Yanmen Mountain, called Yannan Village, I brought you here." You were knocked off a cliff by a falling rockfall and hung unconscious from a tree. After I rescued you, I had to bring you here. ”

The plateau was stunned, Yanmen Mountain is located about 40 kilometers northwest of Yanmen Pass, and is an important part of the Yanmen Pass Fortress. However, now the Yanmen Pass Fortress has not been fully formed, and Yanmen Mountain basically belongs to the outside area, but Yanmen Mountain is more than 500 kilometers away from Jingcheng Mountain, if you say that you have been in a coma at that time, then you are not just in a coma for a few days.

So Gao Yuan said: "So how many days have I been in a coma?" ”

A faint smile appeared on the old man's face, and he said, "Twelve days." ”

Gao Yuan was shocked when he heard this, it turned out that he had been in a coma for twelve days, but his physical condition did not seem to be bad, and it didn't look like he had been in a coma for more than ten days at all. But he didn't care about it, and said, "So who are you?" ”

The old man smiled: "I am Li Mu's teacher, you should have heard of it, but the world usually calls me Guiguzi." ”

Gao Yuan couldn't help but be surprised, of course he had heard of Li Mu's teacher, but he didn't expect that Li Mu's teacher was actually the famous Guiguzi.

Guiguzi's great name, Gao Yuan of course knows, and it is not enough to describe him as famous, it is not enough to show that he has the fame of the Warring States Period, it can be said that in this era, Guiguzi is a demigod and half-human master. The famous soldiers of the Warring States Period, Sun Bin, Pang Juan, Zhang Yi, and Su Qin were all his disciples, and they also left many legends about him, all of which made him godlike, and almost all the celebrities of the Warring States Period, such as Wu Qi, Shang Ying, Gongsun Xun, Le Yi, Xinling Jun, Mao Sui, and even Guan Zhong, Sun Wu, Fan Li and others in the Spring and Autumn Period were counted as disciples of Guiguzi, of course, including Li Mu. Even in the eyes of some conspiracy theorists, the general trend of the entire Warring States is actually Guiguzi manipulating behind his back.

However, according to the research of some historians, Guiguzi should indeed have a person, and the main activity time was in the middle of the Warring States period, and it can be determined that Sun Bin, Pang Juan, Zhang Yi, and Su Qin were all his disciples.

And this person should be regarded as a whole material, the author of "Guiguzi Soldier Book Fourteen" and "Benjing Yin Fu Seven Techniques", the former is the six Tao and three strategies of the political zhì family, the vertical and horizontal art of the diplomat, and also has the yin and yang family, the prophet's rivers and lakes, and the latter is the method of practicing qi and cultivating the spirit, maintaining the body, dispelling illness and prolonging life, it can be said that it takes into account several schools, including soldiers, Taoism, vertical and horizontal families, yin and yang families, health preservation, education and so on. Therefore, later generations of Taoists and fortune tellers all regarded Guiguzi as a sage.

However, the era of Sun Bin and Pang Juan's activities was about 350 BC, and although Zhang Yi and Su Qin were a little later, they were also between 320-300 BC, if Guiguzi really lived to the present and became Li Mu's teacher, then he would be at least one hundred and fifty years old, but the old man in front of him was only sixty or seventy years old at most, and he didn't look like an old goblin who had lived for more than one hundred and fifty years. Therefore, Gao Yuan also said tentatively: "I heard that Sun Bin, Pang Juan, Zhang Yi, and Su Qin are all disciples of your predecessors, is this true?" ”

Of course, Guiguzi could guess what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "Do you think time is too long?" ”

Gao Yuan was also a little embarrassed by Guigu Xiao's words, and said: "The era of Sun Bin and Pang Juan is almost one hundred and twenty or thirty years away from now, if they are all disciples of the teacher, then the teacher is long-lived, at least one hundred and a half years old." ”

Guigu smiled and said: "This secret is only known by the children of Guigu, Guiguzi does not refer to a person, the lords of Guigu in the past generations are called Guiguzi. In fact, the first generation of Guiguzi was a famous hermit in the era of King Zhou Ping's eastward migration, because he lived in seclusion in the Guigu of Qingxi in Zhouyang City, so he called himself Guiguzi, and later inherited the Guiguzi doctrine of the successors, all of whom were called Guiguzi, and passed to my generation, and they were the twelfth generation of Guiguzi descendants, and Sun Bin and Pang Juan were the disciples of the tenth generation of Guiguzi, and Zhang Yi and Su Qin were the disciples of the eleventh generation of Guiguzi, and Li Mu and Zhao Xuan were all my younger brothers, do you understand? ”

Gao Yuan then understood, and hurriedly said: "It's my shallow knowledge that makes my seniors laugh." After a pause, he said: "It turns out that I have been in a coma for twelve days, and I don't know how the war is going on at the front. ”

Guiguzi said: "Are you worried about Li Mu's old department, they are okay for the time being, before I saved you, I had already ordered them to give up the Fanwu camp and retreat to Daijun, temporarily avoiding the edge of the Qin army, not far from us, and when Handan City was broken, Gong Xiaojia led hundreds of Zhao clans, tens of thousands of troops, fled Handan, and also retreated to Daijun, they should meet in Daijun, the Qin army suffered heavy losses before, and in a short period of time, it is difficult to use troops to Daijun, you can rest assured." ”

Gao Yuan listened, and then he was a little relieved, but he immediately remembered a little more, and said: "No, although it is difficult for the Qin army to send a large army to attack Daijun, as long as the five thousand men and horses of Han Teng's army are dispatched, it is enough, I will rush to meet them immediately." ”

Guiguzi shook his head and said: "Han Teng's casualties are greater than those of the Qin army, and less than half of the five thousand men and horses can be used now, this army is Han Teng's family, so he doesn't dare to march at will, of course, this is also thanks to you." ”

Gao Yuan was a little puzzled, and said, "Why is it thanks to me?" ”

Guiguzi said with a smile: "Almost all of Han Teng's lost troops were killed in the battle of Jingcheng Mountain Road, and later he shook the mountains and rocks with a whistling sound, knocking down a lot of soldiers, so he suffered heavy losses, isn't this so difficult that it is thanks to you?" ”

Hearing Guiguzi say this, Gao Yuan was completely relieved, but he immediately remembered the talisman again, since it was Han Teng also had the same power as the amulet ability, and now Gao Yuan could also conclude that he came to this time and space, it must be related to this amulet, thinking that Guiguzi is well-informed, he can be regarded as half an immortal, maybe he will know the origin of this amulet, so he briefly told Guiguzi about the battle of Jingcheng Mountain Road, and then untied the amulet and handed it to Guigu Xiao.

Guiguzi took it and looked at it, sighed, and said, "I guessed that it was true, Han Teng had indeed gained this power, and you were the only one who could stop him from descending the star into the world, and it was indeed for this reason." ”

Gao Yuan was stunned for a moment and said, "Do you know the origin of this talisman?" ”

Guiguzi nodded, pointed to the humanoid pattern engraved on the amulet and said, "Do you recognize this image?" ”

Gao Yuan originally wanted to say Yaksha or Zhang Fei, but immediately remembered that Zhang Fei was a person from the Three Kingdoms period, and Yaksha was a figure in Buddhism who did not appear in this era, so he shook his head.

Guiguzi said: "This is the image of Chiyou, this talisman contains the power of Chiyou, and what Han Teng obtained is also the power of Chiyou." ”

Gao Yuan was stunned, he didn't expect this talisman to be involved in another legendary figure from ancient times.

Chiyou is an ancient tribal leader in Chinese mythology and legend, famous for fighting the Yellow Emperor in the Battle of Zhuolu. Ju said that there are eighty-one brothers, and the beast body human language, copper head and iron forehead, eat sand and stones, build a soldier to fight the sword and halberd crossbow, the power of the world, change the clouds and mist, in the battle of Zhuolu, the Yellow Emperor nine battles and nine wins, and later the Yellow Emperor got the help of Ying Long and Xuannu, only to defeat Chiyou, because the Yellow Emperor was afraid that Chiyou would make trouble after his death, so after the execution of Chiyou, his head and body were buried in two places far away.

However, after the Yellow Emperor defeated Chiyou, he still admired his courage and good fighting, so he respected Chi You as the "master of soldiers", that is, the god of war. And painted his image on the military flag, which was used to encourage his army to fight bravely, and the princes saw that Chi You seemed to surrender without a fight. In the Qin and Han dynasties, the folk are also the Chi You as the god of war to worship, after Qin Shi Huang unified the world, in the Feng Chan Tai Tai, Chi You is also one of the main gods to be sacrificed, was listed in the third place, called the master of soldiers.

On the whole, in the Qin and Han dynasties, the evaluation of Chiyou was basically pertinent, with praise and disapproval, but later in the Chinese society, which has long been dominated by Confucianism, because of the emphasis on the concept of "orthodoxy", historians have a tradition of "becoming a king and defeating a villain". Therefore, after the Tang and Song dynasties, the war between the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou was gradually described as a war between justice and evil, and the image of Chiyou gradually changed from the god of war to an evil god and a fierce god.

This is the myth and story of the Yellow Emperor's battle against Chiyou, but according to the research of historians, Chiyou is also a real person, he is actually the chief of the Jiuli tribe in ancient times, in fact, like the two emperors of Yan and Huang, they are one of the ancestors of China. The Battle of Zhuolu was actually a tribal war between ancient times, and it is estimated that the two sides were fighting for hegemony in the Central Plains, that is, the Yellow River Basin. Therefore, it is impossible to talk about which side is justice, but after the victory of the Yellow Emperor, he unified the Central Plains and became the orthodoxy of China. Assuming that Chiyou was defeated at that time, perhaps the Chinese nation in later generations would also be called Chiyou's grandson.

After the defeat of Chiyou, the Jiuli tribe lost the opportunity to gain a foothold in the Central Plains and fled to the south. Therefore, Chiyou is also the ancestor of the Miao, Li, and Yao ethnic groups in China.

Gao Yuan is not a historian, and he is not interested in the myth and true image of Chiyou, but this talisman and Han Teng are all related to Chiyou, so he can't help but ask, and said: "Senior, what is Chiyou's power?" Is Chiyou a human or a god? ”

Guigu glanced at the plateau and said with a smile: "Do you think I am a human or a god?" ”

Gao Yuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the meaning of Guiguzi, of course, Guiguzi is a person, but he is not an ordinary person, but a person with high wisdom and strong strength, who can do things that many people can't do, so in the eyes of ordinary people, he may be a god. This is not surprising, if he brings a set of high-tech equipment from later generations and drives a plane to this time and space, it is estimated that he will also be regarded as a god in this time and space, and the Yellow Emperor and Chi You should also be such people.

So Gao Yuan said again: "So what is the relationship between Han Teng and Chiyou, and what is Chiyou's power?" ”
