Volume 3: The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors Chapter 438: His Fame Spreads Far and Wide
Fuxi made a net, taught the tribe how to fish and hunt, and guided the tribe members on production matters, so that the Hua clan could obtain a more sufficient source of food and gradually embark on a path of rapid development.
The Hua clan supported him very much. When he was sixteen years old, clan leader Hua Yun stepped down and Fuxi officially became the leader of the Hua clan.
The people in Chengji saw the development of the Hua clan and heard of Fuxi's wisdom, so they sent their tribesmen to learn advanced production methods.
Fuxi welcomed this.
In the same year, Fuxi perfected the musical instrument he created in his childhood, the qin. It was seven feet and two inches long and had fifty strings. He used the qin to create a piece of music called "Li Ji".
When the instruments are completed and the music is composed, merits will be bestowed upon you by heaven.
Well, this was also given by Nuwa.
After hearing this music, people of all tribes were greatly impressed.
Because this kind of music can resist evil, prevent lust, cultivate self-cultivation and rationality, and return to innocence!
"You created this music, and opened a new chapter for our human race!"
The messenger reported the matter back to the tribe. The chiefs of the Chengji tribe had their own plans. They came to the Hua tribe to attend the meeting in the name of discussing the Dao.
Fuxi sat and discussed the Dao with the tribal leaders.
The chief of the Pixiu tribe, Shang Ci, is a gentle man. His tribe uses the exotic beast Pixiu as its totem. His hands can transform yin and yang, and the wind from his palms is sometimes strong and sometimes gentle. He tells everyone a story of black and white by performing martial arts.
Next, it was the chief of the Suanni clan. His eyes were like black stars and he was extremely majestic. When he appeared, he roared like a lion, deafening. A lion as huge as a mountain attracted and frightened everyone. He used the divine power of martial arts and displayed unparalleled tyranny!
Then came the leader of the Yuange tribe, a couple whose sacred animals were a pair of mandarin ducks. The two worked together to deduce a series of exquisite Taoist methods, which made everyone marvel and envy them.
The Fuyao wind of the Sky Eagle tribe, the mountain-opening power of the Bear and Bear tribe, the Gun and Yun formation of the Fish Abyss tribe...
There are more than one hundred tribes in Chengji, and the chiefs of all the tribes are showing their own ways.
Fuxi looked at them one by one and clapped his hands in admiration.
"We have heard that Patriarch Fuxi is an expert in music theory, having created the Jinse instrument and composed the music for 'Li Ji'. I wonder if we can glimpse its true meaning today?"
The chief of the Pixiu tribe, Shang Ci, invited Fuxi to play music for the chiefs of various tribes!
Fuxi narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "My music theory is a method of self-cultivation and self-cultivation. How dare I show off my ugliness in front of you?"
Shang Ci took the lead, and the tribal leaders insisted on doing so.
The Yuange couple said, "We have heard that the virtue of a wise ruler is as vast as the ocean, and he is generous in showing it to others. We are both fascinated by the music composed by Patriarch Fuxi, so please do not refuse."
Seeing this, Fuxi nodded in agreement.
He put down the qin and took the qin, showing it to people everywhere.
"You have all heard the sound of the brocade harp, why don't you see the virtue of this zither today?"
The tribe leaders were curious and asked, "What is the virtue of this zither?"
Fuxi said: "I made this zither from paulownia wood. It is three feet six inches and five points long, representing 365 days. It is six inches wide to correspond to the six directions. It has five strings to correspond to the five elements. It follows the laws of heaven and earth, so it is round on the top and square on the bottom. It harmonizes with yin and yang, so it is about two inches high. The large strings are like the ruler, broad and gentle, while the small strings are like the ministers, clear and not chaotic."
After Fuxi finished speaking, he played the zither and composed "Jiabian". The sound was like the sound of nature, pleasant to the ears and captivating.
The Pixiu, Suanni, bear, eagle and other mythical beasts were all frightened by the song and bowed their heads. The pupils of the tribal leaders trembled, they were horrified and their faces showed strange colors.
Only the Yuange couple were immersed in the music and intoxicated.
When the song ended, the tribal leaders fell silent.
The Yuange couple exclaimed: "This music of your virtuous king is even better than "Laiji". We can already understand his aspirations, and we envy his talents and virtues. It is truly the music of virtue in the world!"
After they finished speaking, they closed their eyes and savored the music for a long time, as if they had not yet walked out of the wonderful world of music.
Fuxi smiled modestly: "Thank you for your compliment, my dear husband and wife."
"No, no, your wise king deserves such praise." Yuange and his wife turned around and saw that the tribal leaders had not spoken for a long time. Each of them was silent, with confusion in their eyes.
"What are you doing?"
Shang Ci, the chief of the Pixiu tribe, was the first to break free from the restraint. Seeing the two of them asking each other questions, his face flushed, then he collected his thoughts and calmly replied, "The music of the Fuxi tribe leader is profound. We are fascinated by it and have gained something..."
The Yuange couple relaxed their brows and smiled, "Did you also gain something?"
Xiong Bin and other tribal leaders also came back to their senses and quickly responded, "Yes! Yes! Yes! That's it!"
"I didn't expect you guys are also experts in this field. This is truly a blessing for our human race!"
The Yuange couple were delighted and their tone of voice became cheerful.
The tribal leaders agreed.
Seeing Fuxi looking at him, he felt extremely embarrassed.
"Hehe, the joy of Patriarch Fuxi is truly unparalleled in the world. It is a great honor for Ci to hear it today!" Shang Ci is worthy of being the patriarch of the Pixiu tribe. He is very good at reversing black and white. He immediately switched his state and talked to Fuxi with a gentle expression.
The other clan leaders also looked friendly and praised him.
Upon seeing this, Fuxi took the opportunity to propose his long-held plan.
He said with a worried look on his face: "I feel ashamed of the praise from you gentlemen. How can a mere matter of music theory be compared to the great matter of the reproduction of our human race? Fuxi discovered the drawbacks but could not solve them. I was worried day and night because of this."
Fuxi sighed again and again.
Seeing this, Yuange and his wife asked with concern, "What are you worried about, my lord? Why don't you tell me? I have more than a hundred tribes in Chengji, so can't I help you share your worries?"
Fuxi looked at Shang Ci.
Shang Ci's mouth twitched, and he lowered his head and brows, and asked respectfully: "Reproduction is a major concern for our tribe. I wonder what problems Chief Fuxi has discovered?"
Fuxi then said: "I see that the human race lives in different places without any laws. Men and women can get married without restraint. People know the mother but not the father. In addition, it is not uncommon for close relatives to get married. Many children born have weak limbs and mental disabilities. I am really worried about this and want to change it through law. However, I am afraid that the different tribes will not agree. What can I do?"
Upon hearing this, the tribal leaders all agreed with it.
The Yuange couple asked, "I wonder what solution the wise king can give?"
Fuxi looked at Shang Ci again.
Shang Ci gritted his teeth, touched his head to the ground and bowed deeply.
"Please give me your instructions."
Fuxi nodded, "I want to set up a marriage ceremony. Close relatives cannot marry, people with the same surname cannot marry, and monogamy is the system. That is, if a man from one tribe and a woman from another tribe fall in love and want to spend the rest of their lives together, the man needs to marry the woman and use two animal skins as a betrothal gift, and the elders of the two tribes will witness it..."
Fuxi explained the wedding ceremony one by one. The tribal leaders nodded frequently after hearing it. The eyes of Yuange and his wife were particularly bright, as this method was very much in line with their wishes.
"Our tribe will certainly be the first to respond to your suggestion, my lord." They looked at each other and took the lead in expressing their attitude.
This time, without Fuxi's reminder, Shang Ci performed the three bows without hesitation: "Patriarch Fuxi, this method has set a precedent for the reproduction of our clan and will benefit the world for generations to come. This is a great achievement!"
The other tribal leaders also praised in unison.
"Wise king, we are willing to follow you !"
"Great kindness!"
Fuxi waved his hand and lifted up the tribal leaders.
"I still have many ideas that I would like to discuss with you. I wonder if you..."
"Please give me your instructions, my Lord!"
Shang Ci was faster than Yuan Ge and his wife. He led the way and bowed again.
Fuxi laughed.
…
Fuxi made the various tribes of the wild people in Chengji submit, treated them with courtesy, and harmonized them with music. He educated them, encouraged production and labor, and allowed the various tribes to develop together and live in harmony.
In order to promote the wedding ceremony, Fuxi also established surnames and clan names for each ethnic group according to their characteristics and preferences. With their own surnames, the human race could distinguish the closeness of their relatives, so that there would be no chaos in the wedding.
The promotion of surnames also greatly strengthened the cohesion of the tribe. The people of the Western Wilderness rushed to follow suit, naming themselves and making wedding plans.
The name of Fuxi spread throughout the Western Wilderness.
Oh, right.
Fuxi also gave himself a surname.
"Sir, your surname is Feng, so I will follow yours and also be surnamed Feng!"
On the bank of Qingtan Pond, in the octagonal pavilion, Fuxi, the wise king of the human race, had a brilliant smile and clear eyes.
Mingyu pushed the teacup in front of him and said, "Very good!"
"Thank you, sir."
Fuxi sat down and drank with him.
"Recently, a proud person from the ancestral land of the human race is coming to the Western Wilderness. He has practiced both immortality and martial arts, and has challenged the talents of various tribes of the human race along the way without ever being defeated. What do you think?" Mingyu asked.
Fuxi looked up and saw that his master had restrained his gaze and could not see any emotion. He thought for a moment and asked, "Master, do you want me to subdue him?"
Mingyu shook her head: "I'm not asking you to surrender, but how do you want to treat it?"
Fuxi understood what was going on. He smiled and said, "Teacher once said that the Great Dao is lonely and needs one or two companions and three or five people to help. I want to rule the world of the human race. This is not a one-day job, nor can it be done by my own efforts. The right way is to have many helpers!"
This Tianjiao, since he has been affirmed by the master, must be a talented person. He has been suppressing all tribes along the way, and everything has gone smoothly. Now that he is about to arrive in the Western Wilderness, I will let him experience the dangers of the world, so as to prevent this Tianjiao from being arrogant and breaking his heart! "
Mingyu smiled knowingly. He picked up the jade pot and filled it with tea. Then he said, "I'm telling you this. Just keep it in mind. I won't care about the rest."
Fuxi looked at him and knew that the teacher was not sincere, but he did not expose him.
"I wonder what the master has to teach me today?"
Since when, Fuxi has forged a tenacious heart of Taoism. He no longer shrinks back, but instead actively "asks for the hammer"!
Mingyu said, "Today I will not teach you magical skills or martial arts secret scrolls. I will take you to a cave to integrate what I have learned."
"Dongtian?"
While Fuxi was puzzled, he saw Mingyu knock on the jade pot in his hand, and the heaven and earth turned, things changed, the stars moved, and the sun and the moon changed.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them arrived in a new world.
"This is?"
Fuxi sniffed and smelled a faint fragrance.
"In the pot!"
Mingyu confirmed his idea.
Fuxi looked around. The wind was blowing in all directions, spring was in the air, and all things were flourishing. It was like a spring world and a paradise of life.
Here, peach blossoms are in full bloom on the branches, butterflies are dancing and flirting, streams are gurgling like the sound of jade pendants, the mountains and rivers are covered with brocade, and the country is wearing new clothes.
"gentlemen?"
Fuxi was contemplating the truth for a long time, and when he turned around, Mingyu had disappeared.
He wanted to explore, but the gentle spring breeze suddenly changed, and murderous intent arose in the world.
The swaying wind and rain are killing, the thousands of green ribbons are killing, the roaring rivers are killing, all living things are killing!
Fuxi was in a region where he had just realized the possibility of survival, but when he suddenly saw the killing spree, he could not help but shudder.
He complained in his heart: "Sir, do you have to play so excitingly?"
…
Qing Qian followed Rong Chengzi across mountains and rivers, challenging various tribes of the human race to hone himself, and was also instructed by Chisongzi, Ning Fengzi, and Wuhuaizi. He reached the third realm of martial arts at the age of sixteen, and his combat power was comparable to that of a true immortal.
"Teacher, Dating said that the Western Wilderness is remote and martial arts are not popular there, and the human tribes are relatively weak, and no strong people have appeared for a long time. Isn't it bullying for you to bring me here?" Qing Qian has won too much and is invincible in the same realm. Although he likes the feeling of crushing, he wants to challenge the strong rather than bully the weak.
Rong Chengzi replied with a smile: "Qian'er may not know, but recently our Western Wasteland tribe has produced a wise king who has brought enlightenment to our tribe. All the people in the Western Wasteland admire his virtues and are grateful for his achievements. They want to recommend him to the human king, so I brought you to see him."
"My clan's wise ruler?"
When Qing Qian heard this, he immediately became interested.
Rong Chengzi also told him what Fuxi had done, and Qing Qian praised him highly after hearing it.
"This man's achievements are worthy of the name of a wise king!"
When Qing Qian heard that Fuxi was the same age as him, he was even more delighted. "It seems that I still underestimated the human race in the world. I didn't expect that there are still great talents in this borderland of our race. I wish I could make friends with them!"
He is not just a martial arts fanatic who only knows how to practice. He also pays attention to all kinds of affairs of the human race. However, he can understand the problems but cannot understand the disadvantages. He is not clear about the harms, let alone good solutions.
"Teacher, if this boy is really a great sage, we must not miss him!" Qing Qian said solemnly.
Rong Chengzi nodded: "Master, I have already made a plan."
"Oh, by the way, teacher, why don't you talk about his merits and virtues but not his cultivation?" Qing Qian was puzzled. Relying on virtue alone might be able to conquer a certain area, but if it were applied to the entire human race, it would probably not work.
Rong Chengzi just smiled and said nothing.
Seeing this, Qing Qian immediately misunderstood: "Could it be that this gentleman is not talented, and the teacher came to the Western Wasteland to protect him and prevent him from dying young?"
After all, my old man is a rare powerful man among the human race, so it is very easy for him to protect an area.
"Okay, stop guessing. You'll know once you meet him." Rong Chengzi was mysterious, which made Qing Qian very curious.
He used his Taoist magic to deduce, but came up with nothing.
"I am confused too. Since he is a sage, how could the clan not make preparations? This is something I could not have predicted." Qing Qian sneered and followed Rong Chengzi.
"Teacher, now that we are here, let's not just go to the Hua tribe. Let's go to other tribes first. What if there are any talented people left?"
He changed his previous attitude and enthusiastically challenged the major human tribes in the Western Wilderness in the hope of finding like-minded people.
However, leave with high hopes and leave with low hopes.
It’s not that there are no talented people in each tribe, it’s just that they are far worse than Qing Qian’s expectations.
Until he arrived at the Hua tribe and met a handsome young man.
The meeting between the two young men seemed like fate, and Qing Qian felt a sense of depression for no reason.
Although the other person is gentle and elegant, I always feel that his nose is not a nose and his eyes are not eyes!
"Xi, I've been waiting here for a long time."
Fuxi was the first to break the silence.
Qing Qian frowned and asked, "Are you Fuxi, the wise king praised by the people of the Western Wilderness?"
Fuxi nodded and then shook his head: "I am Fuxi. As for the title of virtuous king, it is just a compliment from my people."
"I think so!"
Qing Qian said this against his conscience.
Fuxi was not annoyed when he heard this, but just quietly picked up a zither from behind.
When Qing Qian saw this, his eyebrows twitched.
This piano...
He immediately told himself a fortune.
Very bad!
Danger! Danger! Danger!
