Chapter 218 Have you experienced despair?

Wu Chenzi looked at Tianze, thought for a while, sighed, and wanted to speak but stopped. He wanted to speak several times, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Fu Nian looked at Wu Chenzi and then at Tianze, as if he had thought of something, but in the end he didn't speak.

"Please teach me sir!" Tianze looked at Wu Chenzi, knowing that he had a way to solve the Baiyue problem.

Wu Chenzi shook his head and said, "There are two ways to solve the problem of Baiyue. One will make you and me bear the blame for ten generations of life, or even thousands of years of infamous. The people of Baiyue will be killed or injured. The second one I can't tell you, and even if I tell you, it will only allow Baiyue and the Central Plains to experience a hundred generations of war."

Tianze was silent, and was infamous for thousands of generations. Who could bear it? "Is there no other way?" Tianze's red eyebrows were filled with pleading and desire.

"Maybe there, but not now." Wu Chenzi sighed and said.

"Even if it's just a little hope," Tianze said almost begging.

"I will go to Baiyue when I have time, and there may be a better solution at that time." Wu Chenzi sighed and said. He had never seen the people of Baiyue, so he dared not make a conclusion lightly.

"Then please let me learn with my husband." Tianze said.

Wu Chenzi shook his head and said, "You need to go back to Baiyue and do something for me."

"Sir, please tell me!" Tianze said hurriedly.

"I need to know how many ethnic groups and tribes there are in Baiyue, their beliefs and their desires." Wu Chenzi said.

Tianze frowned. Baiyue was too big. Even when Baiyue was still alive, they could not count how many tribes and beliefs there were, let alone he had only one person now.

"Can this copper box save Baiyue?" Tianze suddenly thought of it, and then took out a copper box.

Wu Chenzi looked at the copper box in Tianze's hand, which was one of the seven copper boxes of Emperor Zhou, and then shook his head and said, "I have two such boxes, and I threw them in Taiyi Mountain for two iron-eating beasts to play with."

Tianze was stunned. The secrets of the seven copper boxes that everyone was pursuing were abandoned by Wu Chenzi. But he was shocked again. Wu Chenzi actually raised two mounts of the war god Chi You. You should know that Chi You is the highest god they believe in Baiyue.

"The secret of the seven copper boxes is probably impossible to untie it, and it is even possible that it is empty inside." Wu Chenzi said.

Fu Nian was a little surprised. He knew that Yan Lu had given one to Wu Chenzi. He thought that Wu Chenzi had unlocked the secret of the copper box, but he didn't expect that Wu Chenzi would throw it to two iron-eating beasts as toys. And his guess was the most surprising.

"If the copper box really has a secret that can make a country powerful, why don't the Zhou emperor use it? The princes in the world may not know the secret of the copper box, but the emperor of the Zhou emperor cannot know it. You don't have to think that it may be because of the loss of the way to open the secret. That is absolutely impossible. The royal family will have one or two backups of this secret that concerns the danger of the country. If it really works, why would the Zhou emperor give them to the princes?" Wu Chenzi said.

Fu Nian nodded and agreed with Wuchenzi's guess that the seven copper boxes were very likely to be empty at all, because there was no way to open them. After all, such a small box can hide something.

"I once heard a story where a general was about to go to the battlefield, but he was always worried that he would die and lose. So his father gave him an arrow pouch and told him that there was a magic arrow passed down from their family in the arrow pouch. With it, he could be invincible and defeated. So the young soldier carried the arrow pouch on the battlefield. Because of the protection of the magic arrow, he killed all directions on the battlefield, invincible and defeated all sides, and soon surpassed his father and became a general." Wu Chenzi said.

Fu Nian was stunned for a moment. Why did you suddenly tell a story? You want to tell us the story. I will take my disciples to hide away. As a result, you are halfway through your words, and we want to leave and listen to you.

"What happened later?" Tianze asked. He didn't know the power of Wuchenzi's storytelling.

"Later, this young general went to war again. This time the strong enemy was very strong and they were fighting fiercely. In the end, the young general thought of the magic arrow in the arrow bag. He wanted to use this magic arrow to shoot the opponent's commander with one arrow to win the final victory. However, he failed." Wu Chenzi sighed.

"Did the arrow miss the wrong person?" Tianze asked afterwards.

"He didn't shoot that arrow, because when he opened the arrow bag, he found that there was a broken arrow inside, an ordinary broken arrow. So his faith collapsed, he lost his former confidence, and was shot and killed by the opponent's sharpshooter." Wu Chenzi said.

Tianze, Fu Nian, and the Confucian disciples were stunned. They did not expect that this would be the result, and it was a broken arrow.

"Whether the broken arrow or the seven copper boxes are all the same, they are more of symbolic meaning. Is it because of the power of the copper boxes that Zheng Zhuang Duke can dominate? None of them are the ones who can dominate the government, such as Ying Kaoshu, Ji Zhong, and Prince Lu He Zifeng, rather than the copper boxes." Wu Chenzi said.

"I'm afraid the bronze box was given to Duke Zhuang of Zheng on purpose by the Emperor Zhou, just to make Duke Zhuang of Zheng lose his confidence in himself like a young soldier. Therefore, the Emperor Zhou commanded the princes to attack Zheng, but eventually returned with great defeat. From then on, the Emperor Zhou's majesty no longer existed." Wu Chenzi continued.

Fu Nian and others nodded and pondered. Perhaps the original purpose of these seven copper boxes was to deliberately send them out to deceive the princes, but in the end they backfired, which made the reputation of the copper boxes soar.

"Instead of believing in these false things, why not believe that you can do better?" Wu Chenzi sighed.

Qin was the only country among the seven countries without copper boxes, but it was the efforts of generations and eventually became the most powerful existence among the seven countries. As a result, the six countries were still superstitious about the copper boxes that could help them fight against Qin.

Han was originally one of the Three Jins, and had the martial arts of the Three Jins. The world's strong bows and crossbows were all made of Han, which is not a false reputation. Han had never had a famous general, but he was able to fight against Wei, Qin, and Chu with his most advanced strong bows and crossbow skills. Unfortunately, since Shen Buhe entered South Korea, Han has never introduced a talent or a famous general, and has been self-confidant, which has led to the current situation.

"So, you have to do what you can to the best of your ability to be the best for the people of Baiyue." Wu Chenzi said to Tianze.

"I understand!" Tianze nodded, bowed to Wuchenzi again, then bowed to Fu Nian and the Confucians and left.

"What are the two methods you mentioned?" Fu Nian asked at Wu Chenzi.

Wu Chenzi shook his head and said, "The first way is to let Tianze restore Baiyue, and then I will lead my troops south, killing you in one word! Kill until blood flows into a river, killing everyone until they are scared. Then return Baiyue to Qin."

Fu Nian frowned. He understood that this was not only about killing, but also about erasing all the beliefs of Baiyue. That was why Wuchenzi said that he and Tianze would leave a stigma in Baiyue for thousands of lifetimes.

"What is the second solution?" Fu Nian asked again. What would Wu Chenzi dare not say?

"Learn, practice etiquette in Baiyue, actively learn the methods of the Central Plains. From words to witch doctors and musicians, etc. Because the war in the Central Plains is impossible to end without more than ten years. This is the opportunity for Baiyue learning to develop and rise. But in the end, it will only create a huge country and then continue to fight." Wu Chenzi said.

He would think of this method because of the island country in later generations. If he continues like the Meiji Restoration template, he will only create a stronger opponent than the island country in later generations. Which race can survive in the Asian Monster House is simple. So he can't say it, nor dare to say it.

Fu Nian was also frightened. When the seven kingdoms fought, there would definitely be many scholars who were unwilling to see war, witch doctors, musicians, Baigongs and others who fled to Baiyue. If Tianze gathered these people together and taught the people of Baiyue, Fu Nian would not dare to think about the consequences at all.

"Do you have any other way?" Fu Nian thought about it and asked.

Wu Chenzi nodded. Of course, there is, but he just can't tell Tianze, otherwise how can he control Baiyue? Once a person controls absolute power, his ambition will grow. Don't look at Tianze being respectful to him now. Once he controls Baiyue, he will help Baiyue get out of the predicament. Tianze will definitely turn his guns around to compete with Daqin.

"What method?" Fu Nian thought about it, but he couldn't think of any other way to conquer Baiyue without a large-scale massacre and return to his heart.

Wu Chenzi smiled and looked at the sky, saying, "A method that you Confucians hate."

Fu Nian frowned. There are so many things that Confucianism hates. There are so many rude, untrustworthy, and unrighteous. Who knows which one you are talking about?

"You said, what do people do when they are desperate?" Wu Chenzi asked at Fu Nian.

Fu Nian shook his head. How could he know who could push him to the point of despair? No, Xunzi forced him to the point of almost despair. That terrifying blind date was so desperate. Otherwise, he wouldn't have run to Xianyang Lang for a long time, and then slowly returned to Xiaoshengxian Village, and then passed Xinzheng to take Zhang Zifang back to share the firepower.

"What kind of experience is despair? It means that you can't see any hope, and no matter how hard you work, it's useless, helpless, powerless and helpless. "Zuo Zhuan? Xianggong's Fourteenth Year", if the lord of the people is trapped, the gods are scarce, the people are desperate, the country is not alive (there are also things, masters, and individuals tend to live), how can you use it?" Wu Chenzi looked at the sky and stretched out his hand, and couldn't grasp anything after grasping it. This is the feeling of a desperate person.

Fu Nian frowned. This was what Shi Kuang said to the Marquis of Jin, but Wu Chenzi reduced the previous sentence. The king is the master of gods and the hope of the people.

"This is what Baiyue is now. Without a king, without property, the fields and grains are declining, and the family and country are broken. What kind of despair is that?" Wu Chenzi said.

"You don't let Tianze restore his country and ask him to collect the Baiyue faith, which is very contradictory in itself. Without a country or a king, there is naturally no hope. How can you solve the Baiyue problem?" Fu Nian said.

Wu Chenzi looked at him with a smile and stared at him like this. He really thought I had forgotten the previous sentence, "The Lord of God and the Hope of the People"?

Fu Nian was a little uncomfortable with him, and then he understood that Wu Chenzi deliberately erased the previous sentence. Moreover, the ruler of the country was still the birth of the country, and Confucianism itself was arguing, and Wu Chenzi could not know it, but he did not use the master but the birth of the word, and kept avoiding the word "jun".

"What do you want to do?" Fu Nian asked. He had already guessed, but he didn't dare to believe it.

"So this is a method that you Confucianism hates very much." Wu Chenzi said with a smile.

Fu Nian looked at him seriously and then didn't say anything. After all, Baiyue is not my race, and his heart will be different. Wuchenzi and Taoism can make them return to their hearts, and he doesn't want to ask about it or care about it.

There is no country or ruler, only gods. This is something that Confucianism cannot accept. It is not as simple as hating that almost all Confucian taboos have been violated.
