Chapter 123 Lord Shang (asking for monthly votes)

Late night, ruined temple, old man, worshiping gods...

Zhong Shenxiu was half leaning against the wall, as if watching a drama. After the old man finished worshiping the god, he asked: "Do you believe in the Bull God?!"

"There are so many gods in the world. Everywhere you go, you have to pay respect. This is an old habit. Haha, would you like some dry food?"

The old man laughed and looked at Zhong Shenxiu.

"No need." Although he was hungry, Zhong Shenxiu was also an old man and would not eat food from strangers recklessly. He was still a pair of strange grandfather and grandson.

"Speaking of it...this Ox God is not a simple one. He was the one who protected the Shang Dynasty for a long time before the Wu Dynasty. No other righteous god can compare..."

The old man seemed to be interested and started talking.

"Oh? Please tell me in detail, father-in-law."

Zhong Shenxiu became a little interested.

It's a long night, so I have to find some entertainment, not to mention that Xun Liuyi didn't read much. I really didn't know this.

"This dynasty is called 'Dawu'. Taizu was the number one master in the world at that time. He pioneered martial arts and established the country with martial arts. It has a history of thousands of years. It was only after the establishment of the Dawu Dynasty that martial arts developed rapidly. It has three rankings in the world. , spread for five hundred years!”

The old man smiled, showing a mouth full of black and yellow teeth: "About a thousand years ago, there were hundreds of small countries on this land, fighting endlessly with each other, and there was no inheritance of martial arts. At that time, martial arts were just pure fighting skills. .”

Zhong Shenxiu nodded to express his understanding and automatically entered the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

"At that time, there was a small country named 'Shang'. The leader of the country was Lord Shang, who had been passed down for seven generations." The old man continued: "This seventh generation Lord Shang had some fantastic ideas. He proposed to equalize wealth and poverty. Farms were distributed to each household, and citizens and civilians were treated equally. Nobles committed crimes and common people were equally guilty. We also established papermaking, blacksmithing and other departments..."

Zhong Shenxiu was shocked: ‘Did you do this during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period? Could this guy be a time traveler? ’

He quickly asked: "What happened next?"

"Later, papermaking and forging of iron failed, and the people were in chaos. The surrounding countries took the opportunity to attack, and they lost sixteen cities in one breath, leaving only the last capital, which they struggled to hold on to..."

The old man smiled strangely.

'The heart is as high as the sky, and the life is as thin as paper. This is a good example of high vision but low hand... But it is normal. Someone does not just travel through time and bring a big encyclopedia with him. If he is one step ahead of the times, he becomes a madman...' Zhong Shenxiu nodded secretly: "Then this person betrays all his relatives, how can he make a comeback?"

If there had been no comeback, this man would probably not be remembered, and people would still talk about it thousands of years later.

"At that time, there were tens of thousands of enemy troops. The city had been besieged for three years, and the capital was about to be broken. At this moment, an epidemic broke out in the army city!" The old man's voice was ethereal.

In ancient wars, it was common for cities to be besieged for several years, and then to be broken after the city ran out of food.

And it is normal for a plague to follow when more people die.

"That epidemic was caused by pox!"

"Pox?" Zhong Shenxiu was stunned. After comparing it with the symptoms in Xun Liuyi's memory, he immediately understood that it was smallpox. Even though it has been suppressed by modern medicine, in ancient times, it was a serious infectious disease. The fatality rate can reach 30%!

"The pox first spread from inside the city, and quickly spread to the enemy troops outside the city, causing heavy casualties. As a result, all countries retreated their troops, and the Shang Kingdom narrowly escaped death..." The old man's voice returned to calmness: "However, that generation of Shang Jun did not Instead, he claimed to have received the protection of the Ox God, built the Temple of the Ox God, received his blessings, was not afraid of pox, built a thousand troops, and began to regain the lost territory, and even attacked other countries. The armies of various countries were plagued by diseases, and the Shangguo army He was safe and sound, so he was invincible. Everywhere he went, there was no need to attack the city. The soldiers and civilians in the city directly asked to surrender, all because they were afraid of being infected with the plague... From then on, the Shang Kingdom jumped up and dominated the world, established the Shang Dynasty, and spread the country. The Niu Shenjun Temple was established, but it died within sixty years of the second generation..."

Zhong Shenxiu's expression became even weirder: 'Smallpox, cowpox, immunity... Damn it, are you using the gods to hide the truth about vaccination? This Shang Jun is probably a time traveler, and he has even engaged in biological and chemical warfare. ’

Facts have proved that as a person who has traveled through ancient times, he does not know how to make paper, do not know how to farm crops, cannot forge iron, cannot lead soldiers, and he has no personality charm. These are all irrelevant!

As long as you rely on advanced vision and seize a few opportunities, you can make a comeback!

The lower limit of this Lord Shang is really a bit low.

Zhong Shenxiu knew after thinking about it that this person not only immunized his own army, but also took the initiative to spread the smallpox and used the plague to open the way, otherwise he would not have won so smoothly.

'In ancient times, it was simply a fantasy to develop a vaccine. Only this method of cowpox is the most convenient...'

‘It just feels like it’s a little too smooth. Maybe the mortality rate and contagiousness of smallpox in this world are higher? ’

'However, even if we conquer the world with plague, it will be of no use. Once the time traveler dies, it will be over...'

Zhong Shenxiu asked: "Why did the country collapse in sixty years?"

"Hey, Lord Shang brought plague to the world, how can we not get the public's outrage? The Taizu of this dynasty rose up and mastered the martial arts. He also created martial arts. Everyone can refine their Qi and strengthen their bodies, so they are not afraid of the plague. Later, they conquered the capital of the Shang Dynasty and conquered the Shang Dynasty. All of your bloodline has been wiped out... The Shang Dynasty has been destroyed, but the Temple of the Ox God has spread throughout the world and is the god of disease..."

The old man slowly explained the origin of the Niu Shenjun Temple, which made Zhong Shenxiu sigh a little.

This Shangjun is also Xiuer!

He looked at the figure of the divine king with a bull's head, wearing a robe and holding a jade plate, and suddenly felt a little emotional.

Boom!

At this moment, there was a muffled sound from the sky, and raindrops poured down.

The rainstorm was falling, and the old man stuffed a steamed bun to the girl in red, and said slowly: "There are even rumors that the Taizu of this dynasty pioneered martial arts and received the Mengqi from the God, and even that it was the same Ox God Lord. !So the Shang Dynasty died, but the belief in Lord Niu Shen still exists, but most people think it is nonsense..."

"I think so……"

Zhong Shenxiu nodded, otherwise this Niu Shenjun would have a big problem.

"Things that happened thousands of years ago are now commonplace... It's rare that you are still interested in hearing it." The old man smiled and continued to bake steamed buns: "You really don't want to try some?"

"Thank you. I appreciate it."

Zhong Shenxiu smiled and declined.

At this moment, the broken door of the small temple was pushed open again, and a tall man dressed as a man in the martial arts world walked in, wearing a strong suit and carrying a long knife on his back.

Seeing that there were already three people inside, he seemed slightly surprised, but immediately ignored them and found a corner to rest and take shelter from the rain.

‘This ruined temple in the wilderness is also attacked by evil spirits today. Are there so many people? ’

Zhong Shenxiu rolled his eyes secretly and looked at the old man: "It's a long night and it's boring to talk about history. Let's talk about Jianghu. I'm very interested in that day's list."

"Those who are famous on the heavenly list are all supreme masters. They have unpredictable powers. They can break mountains with one punch, cut off rivers with one palm, and even reverse life and death. If we can even see it, it is because we have accumulated merit for eight lifetimes." Ah, I dare not say this, I dare not say..." The old man waved his hands repeatedly.

Zhong Shenxiu was dumbfounded: ‘Is this still a warrior? There is something wrong with this world! ’
