Chapter 1367 Success is also the Mandate of Heaven, and defeat is also the Mandate of Heaven
Smith. Zhou's gritted teeth expression really made it impossible to see that he was telling a myth that condensed thousands of years of history, the history of the blood and tears of the human race. But what he tells is really about that, and as he tells it, the story gets deeper and deeper.
The rise of a race cannot be bright and majestic, and there will definitely be all kinds of conspiracies in it. And Smith. What Zhou is doing now is to uncover this conspiracy to Zhou Yi little by little.
"King Yu became the first generation of the Son of Heaven of the human race, but it is precisely because he became the Son of Heaven that I can no longer assist by his side. The Eight Lords of Heaven and Earth are closely monitoring him, and if they discover my presence, everything I plan will be affected. I couldn't allow that to happen, so I continued to dismantle and wander the world as a reincarnation, silently plotting everything. ”
"It's almost 2,000 years away, and my arrangement has finally reached the most critical time. Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. And this Dongfeng is a man of destiny like Xuanyuan and King Yu. Destiny didn't disappoint me, and he did. And this person is Zhao Zheng, Qin Emperor Zulong! ”
"Emperor Qin swept Liuhe, looking at He Xiongzai. Swing your sword to break the clouds, and the princes will come to the west. Li Taibai's poems are indeed a word that exhausts the majesty and strategy of the first emperor. To put it bluntly, with the appearance of the first emperor, even compared with the emperor and King Yu, it is not inferior. For the human race in this land, his greatest achievement should be to unify China, with the same books, the same track, and all things as one. But the real merits of the First Emperor go far beyond that. In my opinion, his greatest achievement should be to conquer the heavens and overturn the heavens and the earth! ”
"Conquest of the Heavenly Court?" Hearing such a statement, Zhou Yi couldn't help frowning. The history of the Yellow Emperor and Dayu is too far away, and there is no real historical record to verify. So it can only be Smith. Whatever Zhou says is what it is. But the First Emperor was different. The history from the Warring States period to the Qin Dynasty is clear, even if it is a little biased, it will definitely not deviate anywhere. And Zhou Yike, who is very familiar with this history, doesn't remember at all that the First Emperor did any major things to conquer the sky.
You must know that in that era, this kind of thing would definitely not be a trivial matter. Even if it is not found in the official history, there will be corresponding records in the wild history. But is there such a record in the wild history? Zhou Yi is very clear, no. So he was very suspicious of Smith. The authenticity of Zhou's words. But looking at the way he said it, it didn't look like he was talking about a guy. So after thinking about it for a moment, he turned to Smith. Zhou asked.
"I have a question. You say that you have been secretly manipulating all this in the form of reincarnation. So what was your identity at the time of the First Emperor? ”
It's a temptation. And in the face of this temptation, Smith. Zhou smiled slightly, and said such a name.
"Fang Shi Xu Fu. That's who I was in that life, and I'm sure you'll be familiar with this name. ”
Of course, Zhou Yi was no stranger to this name, and he asked what he knew almost immediately.
"Xu Fu, is it the Xu Fu who took three hundred boys and women to the sea to find the elixir of immortality?"
"That's right, that's me, I'm that Xu Fu. But the elixir of immortality, this kind of thing will be talked about later. For now, let's move on to the previous topic. I know what you're baffling with in your mind, and you think what I'm saying is a bit unrealistic. Because there's no real record of that in the history you're seeing now, right? ”
"Here's what I can tell you about that. It is true that such things are not explicitly recorded. However, there are some clues here. For example, the Twelve Golden Figures! ”
"Twelve Golden Men?" Zhou Yi does have some impressions about the twelve golden people, and there is such a passage in Jia Yi's treatise on passing Qin, collecting the soldiers of the world and gathering Xianyang. Pin Feng Di, cast as the golden man twelve, to weaken the people of the world. On the surface, this means that Qin Shi Huang collected all the weapons in the world and cast twelve golden figures, so that the people of the world would not have weapons to resist him. But for this statement, Zhou Yi scoffed in his heart.
Does this method of confiscating weapons really work? You know, so-called weapons are always man-made. As long as you have a heart to resist, what if you don't have a weapon in your hand. Isn't it possible to resist when you rise up and chop wood as soldiers? Chen Sheng and Wu Guang didn't think so when they rebelled.
And besides, with the strength of Qin Shi Huang's soldiers and horses, is it necessary to be afraid of these? You know, it was a powerful army that shocked the world and annihilated the Six Kingdoms, and it was the most powerful arrogant soldier in the world. When the Six Nations were at their peak, they couldn't be enemies of them, let alone these remnants of the Six Kingdoms were defeated.
In the final analysis, it was only those scholars and experts who came later who could not make a reasonable explanation for the Twelve Golden Men at all, so they would far-fetched to make up such a reason. And now, Smith. The meaning of Zhou's words is clearly that he knows the secrets of the twelve golden people. This made Zhou Yi couldn't help but be curious, and wanted to find out what was going on.
For Zhou Yi's curiosity, Smith. Zhou can feel it. He didn't sell anything, and explained it to him directly.
"The so-called Golden Man Twelve is not an ornament for the people of the weak world. They have a huge effect, and they can even be said to be terrifying combat power, and these are all prepared for those gods of Heavenly Court! ”
"Since the time of the Yellow Emperor, I have been laying out a big plan. Back then, the Yellow Emperor and I worked together to refine an artifact called the Heavenly Demon Mirror. Using this artifact, we have subdued countless fierce gods and demons, imprisoning them in the Demon Mirror. In the era of King Yu, taking advantage of the convenience of water control, King Yu built Jiuding at my suggestion. The tens of millions of demons who have surrendered to us have been sealed in Jiuding. Jiuding is a foreshadowing I left back then. And this foreshadowing was finally used on the twelve golden men. ”
"The Twelve Golden Men are a sharp weapon for conquering heaven with Jiuding as the core and the soldiers of the world as the material. He has the resentment and magic of thousands of demons in it, and he has the sharpness and blood of the soldiers of the world. Even if it is the gods in the sky, few people can resist such an existence. And as long as we subdue the Eight Masters, then the so-called Heavenly Court will not be able to stop the First Emperor's troops at all. ”
Speaking of which, Smith. Zhou's eyes were already shining. Obviously, the story he was telling had reached its climax, to the point where it could make his blood run high.
"The first emperor enshrined Mount Tai in the name of the Son of Heaven. The Eight Lords of Heaven and Earth are the main lords of the Heavenly Court, and they must come forward to deal with it. And taking advantage of this opportunity, with the divine power of the twelve golden people and the power of the heavens to shine on the demon mirror, the eight masters of heaven and earth were knocked down by me in one fell swoop, and they were completely suppressed under Kyushu. And now that the eight masters are gone, the dragons of the heavenly court are leaderless, and the first emperor pointed out that those so-called innate gods were simply defeated and were killed cleanly. Since then, the road to heaven has been cut off, and no god above Shenzhou dares to override the human race. ”
"So in the end you won?"
This result was somewhat unexpected by Zhou Yi, because in his mind, since Smith. Zhou can always be reincarnated and is still making trouble, so he must have fallen short back then. But judging from the stories he told, it seems that he did not fail, but showed his ambition and achieved something earth-shattering. This made him a little puzzled, things shouldn't be like this.
Zhou Yi, who couldn't figure it out, could only ask curiously, and when he heard this question, Smith, who was already in high spirits. Zhou immediately sank his face, and then replied with a gloomy face.
"No, I lost. Because I miscalculated one thing, that is, my greatest enemy is not Heavenly Court at all, but the so-called Mandate of Heaven! ”
"When the First Emperor ruled the world, I thought that what I wanted in my life was finally granted. But what I didn't expect was that things weren't what I thought they were at all. Destiny, damn Destiny! When I was refining the elixir of immortality for the First Emperor, I let the First Emperor be victimized by the two traitors Li Si and Zhao Gao. He allowed a Son of Destiny to appear in the world, completely destroying the First Emperor's country. ”
"Xiang Yu, this son of destiny with the same eyes as King Yu is crazy to destroy everything that the First Emperor has established, even if it is me, I am driven to the sky and have no way to enter the earth. Destiny is directed, and I am not his opponent. In order to save my life, I had to go out to sea to the west, away from this homeland. And since then, Shenzhou Huaxia has completely stepped out of my control. That's when I realized a serious problem. That is, if I do not defeat destiny and fate, everything I pursue will not be achieved at all. ”
"After all, the son of destiny is born of destiny, and destiny allows him to live and die. Whether it is the Yellow Emperor, King Yu or the First Emperor, or even Xiang Yu's puppet. Their lives are in the hands of Destiny. No matter how much I do, there is no way to change their destiny, so I finally understand that pinning my hopes on the children of destiny is a mistake in itself. So from that moment on, I had already decided that my long-cherished wish had to be done by myself, and everything had to be led by myself. ”
"For this decision, I began to travel the world, from east to west, I have been to all the countries of the world, and all the history of the world has my footprints. Step by step, I planned my great cause, calculating little by little for my long-cherished wish. If you don't succeed in one life, you will live another life. After 500 lifetimes, it has finally arrived today. Finally with me and you today. ”
"You know, my son. Everything you have now is the result of me, your strength, your feats. It's because of me that you're where you are today. You were born to be on my side, and you belong to me, you know? ”
