Cao Cao asked me to go rob a tomb

Chapter 759 Rules of Strategists (4100)

That's why.

To ordinary people like Wu Liang, "The Seven Techniques of Yin Fu in This Classic" seemed too deep and dark.

In particular, it also mentioned the concepts of "real person" and "sage".

The so-called "true person" is a person who has obtained his nature from heaven and thus mastered the Tao.

The so-called "sage" is a person who gradually masters the Tao through learning and tempering.

Comparing the two, the biggest difference is that the former belongs to the "innate" masters of the Tao, while the latter is the "acquired" masters of the Tao.

So what is the so-called "Tao"?

"Tao" is the beginning of heaven and earth, Tao produces one, one is the beginning of all things, the creation of all things, and the production of heaven are all the functions of Tao.

The above are all the contents that Wu Liang saw in the "Seven Techniques of Yin Fu of the Classic" handed down to later generations. Although it is not the original version of classical Chinese, it is definitely the original words.

And "The Seven Techniques of Yinfu in This Classic" combines Taoism theory to teach people how to enrich their will, cultivate their spirit, and how to use their inner spirit to the outside, thus affecting people and things outside.

To put it more simply.

Wu Liang felt that the content in "The Seven Techniques of Yin Fu" is actually somewhat similar to the "mind power" fabricated in some online novels of later generations, which can also be called "spiritual power".

"Mind power" or "spiritual power" is relatively easy to understand, and many people will classify it as "supernatural power".

However, the "mind power" in "The Seven Techniques of Yin Fu" is completely different from the "mind power" that people understand, such as fetching objects from the air, remote control, and bending spoons.

Wu Liang only remembered one skill mentioned in the book that was quite powerful and easy to understand, it seemed to be called "Tao Zhi".

The so-called "Tao Zhi" is to keep the five viscera in harmony, the six viscera to be unobstructed, and the spirit, spirit, soul, and soul can all be steadfast, so that the mind can reach an ethereal state without distracting thoughts, waiting for magical inspirations to come and go, so that you can observe the world to understand the laws of creation and creation, and finally reach the realm of "one can understand everything in the world without going out of the door, one can understand the law of change in nature without sticking one's head out of the window, and one can call things by their names without seeing them" .

As for other content.

In addition to being obscure and difficult to understand, it is mostly something similar to psychological warfare or influence, and these things are also combined with Taoism theory and the viscera. Appreciate the real subtlety in it, so there is no gain.

But now I think about this book.

Wu Liang felt that the "knowledge" in it was very suitable for the identity of the "spiritual boy" he made up. Isn't "spiritual boy" just "knowing the world without leaving the house, seeing the way of heaven without peeking at the world, dying without seeing it, and dying if you don't do it?" Is it the representative occupation of ", so is the real "spirit boy" just mastering the ability of "knowledge"?
"This……"

After pondering for a while, Wu Liang already had his own thoughts in his mind, so he said to the invisible Xu Fu, "To be honest with Xu Jun, I can be regarded as a well-read book, but I have never seen the Yin Talisman of the Book of Classics that is now circulating in the world. Therefore, it is not sure whether this book has been lost. If this book is very important, it is better to ask Xu Jun to tell the contents of it, and Miss Hu will record it and hand it over to me. I am happy to contribute my own little effort to the transmission of the essence of our country's culture. Besides, Xu Jun specifically mentioned this book. I think this book is also of great significance to Mr. Guigu. But the huge loss of our country for thousands of years is a great regret for Mr. Guigu, right?"

After saying these words, Wu Liang took out a few pieces of silk cloth and charcoal pencils that he carried with him quite proactively, stepped forward and handed them to the witch Hu.

He had thought about it a long time ago. If he wants to go into the sea again when he leaves later, he will not be able to bring out the larger bamboo slips properly, but it will be much easier to take out the silk cloth, because the silk cloth can be easily stuffed into those In the water bag, as long as the opening is sewn with a cork, the seawater cannot soak it.

"The ancestor god promised you."

The witch quickly relayed Xu Fu's decision, "However, the ancestor god also made some demands on Wu Taishi. The ancestor god said that although "捭he Ce" is a wonderful book for a political strategist, if Wu Taishi meets someone with both ability and political integrity in the future , You can decide whether to teach this book according to your own wishes, but "The Seven Techniques of Yin Fu of the Classic" is different. The secret, if it is not a closed disciple of the Zongheng sect, it must not be granted... When the ancestor god decided to leave the country, the first thing he did was to destroy the "Seven Art of Yin Fu" that he brought with him back then. If you want to get this book, you must first follow the rules of the Strategist to perform the discipleship ceremony, and you need to make an oath to abide by the rules set by the Immortal Master Guigu for the rest of your life, is Wu Taishi willing?"

saint?

Guiguzi was indeed revered as "seeking saints" very early on, and it is also the same in later generations.

But Wu Liang could tell that the "sage" mentioned by Xu Fu was obviously not a simple honorific title, but the sage mentioned in "The Seven Techniques of Yin Fu", that is, a person who gradually mastered the Tao through learning and tempering. "Saint" in the sense.

Such a person, at worst, must be a "living fairy" or "earth fairy" as people often say, right?
Then the books he wrote after he became a "sage" must hide some secrets and rules of the universe that only he can see through. They are the books closest to the heavenly books, and they are rare treasures.

Of course, as to whether other people can understand the content and grasp the essence of it, this is another question.

But judging from the rather strict rules Xu Fu mentioned.

Wu Liang felt that the "Seven Techniques of Yin Talisman of the Ben Jing" handed down by later generations is very likely to be a fake, and at most it can only be a copy with key content deleted or tampered with, because this rule has already determined that this book will not be widely circulated However, there are quite a few books on "The Seven Techniques of the Yin Fu" discovered by later generations, and most of them came from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which is very illustrative.

"I would like to ask Mr. Xu to show you how to implement the ritual of being a closed disciple."

Wu Liang nodded and asked.

"Whatever I do, you follow. How I swear, you have to repeat it together, understand?"

Miko Hu said to Wu Liang with a serious face.

"Do you also want to join the Strategist?"

Wu Liang frowned.

"The ancestor god said that if I help to record, I will know the contents of the book. Therefore, I must first perform the ritual of a disciple, and I must swear to follow the rules set by Immortal Master Guigu, otherwise the rules will be broken."

The witch said it was a matter of course.

"Makes sense..."

Wu Liang nodded slightly. Although he didn't worry about this issue any more, he was thinking whether this book would flow into the Japanese country from then on, and whether he should silence it later... But after thinking about it again, in fact, this may not necessarily be a bad thing, at least This book has another way to survive. After all, with such a secretary and such rules, the possibility of being lost is too high.

What's more, the essence of the book may not be understood by anyone who reads it. After all, this is a heavenly book written by a "sage".

When thinking about it like this.

The witch shouted again: "The ancestor god has warned me that even if I know the contents of the book, I will never give these contents to foreigners in the Japanese country, so I will make one more oath than Wu Taishi. In addition, the ancestor god also said that the secrets in this book People who are not destined to learn the technique cannot learn it. Although he remembers the words and sentences in the book, he has never comprehended the mystery in it. It is not that he has not comprehended it. Not explained to anyone."

As expected of Xu Fu, he saw through Wu Liang's thoughts in just an instant and made corresponding arrangements.

But Xu Fu's words also surprised Wu Liang.

Wu Liang knew who Su Qin, Zhang Yi, and Gongsun Yan were. All of them were representatives of political strategists. It can be said that the Warring States period is chaotic or not, and it is up to them to decide, which is called a master.

If these people have never understood the mysteries of "The Seven Techniques of Yin Talisman in This Classic", then this book is too profound, right?

"Ancestor God said that he once heard from Immortal Master Guigu that among his disciples, there was only one person who understood half of the mystery, and that person was called Cai Ze."

The witch said again.

"Cai Ze? But that Cai Ze who made Fan Ju, the famous minister of the Qin Dynasty, hand over the position of prime minister just because of his remarks that 'the middle of the sun will shift, and the full moon will lose'?"

Wu Liang asked subconsciously.

As far as Wu Liang knew, Fan Ju was also a member of the Zongheng family, but he was from the Lianheng faction of the Zongheng family. In the Battle of Changping and the Battle of Handan, he advised King Qin Zhaoxiang and defeated the Zhao army.

In addition, the well-known military theory of "distance from distance and near attack" was first proposed by Fan Ju.

It can be said that Qin was able to unify the six countries and achieve hegemony in the end. Fan Ju played a role that cannot be ignored and laid a very important foundation.

However, it is such a resourceful prime minister who was persuaded by Ji Liu in a few words to retreat bravely and take the initiative to give up the position of prime minister. It can be seen that this Cai Ze is indeed capable... Is it because he has mastered the "Seven Art of Yin Fu" in "The Classic of Classics" Half of the mystery?

In fact, Cai Ze is indeed not simple. After he took over the post of Prime Minister of Qin, although he retired soon after, he stayed with the royal family to serve King Zhao, King Xiaowen, King Zhuang Xiang and Qin Shihuang in turn. The four generations of kings were one of the very few in Zongheng's family who had a good death.

It is worth mentioning that Fan Ju, who was persuaded by him to voluntarily give up his aspect, also died without illness or disaster.

While thinking of these historical facts.

Wu Liang also became curious about the rules of the Strategist.

Originally he thought that the Strategist was just an academic faction, similar to a certain academic field in later generations, but now Xu Fu taught him how to behave like a disciple, which showed that the essence of the Strategist should actually be a sect-like organization.

But it is different from other martial arts organizations.

Strategists can see the contradictory nature from the name. As the saying goes, the vertical is to unite the weak to attack the strong; the horizontal is to attack the weak by the strong.

The facts are indeed true. For example, Fan Ju, Cai Ze, Su Qin and others mentioned just now belong to the Lianheng faction, while Zhang Yi, Gongsun Yan and others belong to the Hezong faction. The Lianheng faction and the Hezong faction have always been incompatible In terms of relationship, Fan Ju will design to disintegrate the joint vertical alliance against Qin, and the joint vertical faction will also try to dismantle Qin's long-distance and short-range attack strategy, and the two sides will never hold back because they belong to the vertical and horizontal family.

If this is really a sect-like organization, it can definitely be called the most special sect organization in the world, even if the Huashan sect divided into Qizong and Jianzong in later martial arts novels does not seem to be so incompatible.

"Exactly."

The witch nodded.

"Xu Jun, I'm a little curious now, what kind of organization is the Strategist? Why do they divide their disciples into the Lianheng sect and the Hezong sect? Killing each other and framing each other, Immortal Master Guigu doesn't know about these things, right?"

Wu Liang finally couldn't help asking. After all, he was about to join this organization, so he had to figure out the situation first.

In fact, the strategists stopped showing up after Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms. Later, when the situation became more stable in the Han Dynasty, the strategists disappeared even more. After hundreds of years, except for the records in the history books, few people mentioned it.

"I am a chess piece, I make a chessboard from the ground, I plan in my heart, and I am a yin and yang."

The witch recounted, "This is the political strategist. The world is not benevolent and treats everything as a straw dog. In a troubled world, no one can be alone. Why don't you throw away your worries and have a fun game, manipulate the wealth and royal power in your palms, and fight with your fellows?" Wouldn't it be a great joy in life to test what you have learned in the middleman's chic game?"

"game?"

Wu Liang was stunned.

These words sounded extremely heroic, and one couldn't help but be excited. Naturally, one would unconsciously regard the Strategist as such a lofty organization. After all, not everyone can manipulate wealth and royal power in the palm of their hands. He played the world as a chessboard, and he also treated himself as a chess piece to end the game himself.

But then I thought about it and looked at the essence carefully... Dare to be emotional is to cultivate a group of lunatics who are broken and broken in troubled times?

On second thought, Guiguzi, who founded Strategist, also played a good game of chess.

Lianheng is my strategist!
He Zong is also my strategist!

No matter who is the final winner, they will definitely not be able to escape from my strategist anyway!
"Forgive me for asking, Xu Jun, as one of the closed disciples of Immortal Master Guigu, has he ever acted like Su Qin and Zhang Yi?"

Wu Hao asked curiously. If there is no record in the history books, it does not mean that there is no record.

"The ancestor god said, this is another rule of the strategists."

The witch said, "The disciples of the Zongheng family walked in troubled times, hibernated in the prosperous times, and should not be kings or dominate. When the ancestor god worshiped under the ghost of the ghost valley, the situation in the world had already been determined, and the disciples of the Zongheng family had retreated bravely. Therefore, the ancestor god also I can only dormant... But now we are in troubled times again. Although the ancestors don't know what the situation is, they can be sure of one thing. Same door."
