Wukong drives cattle, drives, and walks out of Zhongnan Mountain for several days. He has gradually passed the border of Qin State, Guanzhong Resort, and the lush forests and plains slowly have undulating mountains. Although there are a lot of remains from Xirong, it is still the land of Qin, and it was the work of Baili Xi, a Wuyangskin doctor a hundred years ago.

It is here that Baili Xi Zuogong destroyed the twelve kingdoms of Xirong and expanded the land for thousands of miles.

I think that the first emperor of the Qin State was a descendant of a merchant, a descendant of Xuanniao blood, and he was of the same clan as Zhao Qing of the Jin State. A hundred years later, during the Warring States period, the three families were divided into Jin, and Zhao Qing established his own country, which was Zhao Guo. The two countries of Qin and Zhao are both descendants of Feisiam, the Ying family is the eldest son of Fei Lian after Elai, and the Zhao family is the second son of Ji Sheng. The surname is Zhao, so it bears the surname Zhao.

Qin Shihuang Ying's family name was Zhao Zheng, so Ying Zheng's real name was Zhao Zheng.

Now the two families still have some affection, but in the Warring States period, the two countries both had the surname of Zhao, but between Qin and Zhao, they were already sworn enemies.

Qin Feizi, also known as Zhao Feizi, the ancestor of the state of Qin, shepherds horses in Quanqiu for King Xiao of Zhou, and occupied the land of Qin. After five dynasties, he defeated the dog army, expanded the barbarians, cut down the thorns and expanded the size of the land, and finally assisted the Duke and ascended the princes, Mu Gong And the land that expands thousands of miles westward is Huaxia Xiping, a big country in Guanzhong.

The ox cart was walking faintly on the Qin Road, when a businessman grazing cattle in front saw the bronze frame of the cart, came up and said, "Master on the cart, don't go any further! If you go any further, you will be the Yiqu tribe. They The barbarians are bloody and tyrannical, and they are the most vigilant against the people coming from our country of China. Except for the businessmen who are familiar with their tribes, any Chinese who go to their territory will be killed by them!"

Wukong saw that the person who came up to advise was a childish young man, so he replied: "My little brother, we didn't even bring an inch of armor, and there were only two masters of my family in the car, taking us to study in other countries. Seeing that we are empty-handed, the Yiqu people will never treat us as villains! Let's do harm at every turn!"

The young man was startled when he saw Wukong's true face, pointed at Wukong and said, "Why do you have hair on your face? Like a monkey?"

Wukong laughed and said: "I am a native of the Maoren country in the south, and I admire the culture of the Central Plains, so I worship under the teacher!"

"So that's how it is!" said the young man embarrassedly: "I have never been out of the Qin Kingdom, and the farthest I have gone is to go to Guanzhong with my family to sell cattle. It's so rare and strange! I heard that people from the Chu Kingdom in the south grow feathers on their bodies and wholesale thorns, like ghosts and gods. , I think the southerners are so weird, not as pure as our northerners. But you don't even wear armor, I'm afraid you will be killed by that Rong Di!"

"Rong Di is afraid of power but not virtuous. You put on your armor. Their small tribes see that you have some strength to resist. They are afraid that the young and strong in the tribe will lose too much, so they won't do anything. Only those big tribes with thousands of people, Only when you go west with bare hands like this, you will probably be killed by those dog soldiers in less than two days!"

The young man vowed: "When we went to Xirong to sell horses, we sold them salt and silk, sold their cattle and horses, and exchanged supplies. They are the people most needed by the Quanrong people. That's it. Every time we go to Yiqu One or two times out of ten times, the merchants in our caravan will be killed by those dog warriors who are greedy for our wealth! Everyone in our caravan is armed with soldiers and armor, and there are strong bows and crossbows. Proficiency, only in this way can you not be harmed by them, if you really want to go to Xirong to verify your knowledge, it is best to find a caravan that you come and go to borrow."

Seeing him riding a horse and bowing his bow, Wukong turned his eyes and said with a smile: "If such an armed caravan encounters a smaller Rong tribe, they will change their status and start a business without capital, right?"

The young man smiled shyly, a little embarrassed, but without the slightest hint of shame and said with a smile: "If you meet a small tribe with rich cattle and horses, of course you have to snatch him. Those barbarians are just like us Qin people. Just like domestic animals, the animals have bad horns, and if they grow fat, they will naturally be slaughtered. When we Qin men grow up again, we will kill and plunder them to expel them and expand our land."

The young man looked up at Chen Ang and Lao Tzu, who were indifferently listening to the car,

Asked: "The two masters seem to be learned people, but do they look down on us?"

Chen Ang said with a smile: "Respecting the king and destroying barbarians is the righteousness of China. Is there any courtesy to look down upon? Besides, the way of man is self-improvement, and the way of heaven is the survival of the fittest. Isn't it in line with the will of heaven and people to expand the land and kill?"

Lao Tzu said: "I don't know if you are too high; secondly, praise it; secondly, fear it; secondly, insult it. If you don't believe it, you don't believe it. If you are lazy, your words are precious. When the success is achieved, the people all say that : Of course I am."

The young man's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "The two doctors are indeed learned masters, not like some stupid people who mutter some pedantic words of treachery, robbery and viciousness. A year ago, there was a Qiren, and his brain was like this Not sober!"

This is a bit strange, this style of pre-Qin scholar-bureaucrats is not the sour and corrupt Confucianism of later generations, who complain about benevolence, righteousness and charity, and treat barbarians with leniency.

The pre-Qin period was when China was expanding its land, and when the martial arts were at their peak, Confucius was here. When he saw the people of Qin enlisting the army, he might have praised him: "Wei Bailixi, I have been sent to the left!" Therefore, the Qin and Han Dynasties inherited the style of the princes of the pre-Qin period, with great martial arts, chasing soldiers and dissidents, and conquering barbarians. They have always only praised the martial arts of conquering barbarians, and never persuaded people to hypocrisy.

Under such a morality of respecting the king and rejecting barbarians, the Qi people are actually a strange flower.

The young man was very fond of him, and he couldn't bear to see them go to death, so he suggested: "Those Quanrong people are murderous and extremely vicious. You should not go west for now. It's almost winter now, and it won't be long before you go west to Quanrong. Counting down to the cold winter, there will be no firewood on the prairie, and there will be white disasters, snowstorms, and the danger of losing the road, it is really close to death."

"It's just a blessing, I met the winter camp of the Yiqu Quanrong people. Those Quanrong people lack food and clothing in winter, and they will definitely not let you go. Maybe, their flesh and blood will be cheaper than those Rongdi."

"Let's go traveling with those big caravans when the Quanrong people urgently need salt and copper in the spring of next year!"

Although this young man is also kind-hearted, and what he said is somewhat reasonable, Chen Ang, Wu Kong and others are not ordinary people, and they are going to go to Huahu, and they will go to the Western Heaven to be poisoned, so they will stop for half a year today and two days tomorrow. Months, it takes a few years to complete. The road to the west now is different from that of the Tang Dynasty a thousand years later. At that time, the countries in the Western Regions had already had contacts with the Tang Dynasty, and there were many business travelers. It is a Silk Road. But it is not difficult to go to Tianzhu.

But now the martial arts in the capital of China have not faded, and the Western Regions are even more barren. Well-known and unknown nomadic tribes such as the Huns, Dog Rong, Turks, Yuezhi, etc. walk along this road. A little later, maybe we can meet the Eastern Expedition The Greek Macedonians are all barbarians, who drink blood and kill each other. Chen Ang and his party go west like this, they have to kill a bloody road.

Wukong couldn't figure it out, so he had to come back and ask Chen Ang: "Master, all the way to the west, they are all barbarians and savages, maybe they don't even talk much. I have seen such people when I traveled east in the past. On the island, the savage tribe can't reason at all, they are like beasts, they are not human. This kid is right, it is really difficult to go west, and I have to kill hundreds of people under the stick of my old grandson. I can't bear to kill those savages, and Master, you don't want to show your supernatural powers, what should I do?"

Chen Ang said with a smile: "It is the barbarians who need to be educated by the teacher and Lao Tzu. We went all the way not only to get rid of the poison and discuss the Tao with the Tathagata, but also to sow the seeds of civilization along the way and educate the Buddha. The road to the west is not to visit, teach, and teach the chieftain the knowledge and principles, but to fight, conquer, kill, and preach."

"Where there are demons, there is you, the Demon Emperor Qi Tian, ​​who can fight demons and suppress demons. I know that all the way to the west, humans and demons are mixed. Going to the Western Paradise here is to make the tribes who believe in my great religion prosperous, to conquer those more barbaric Rongdi, and to make them fight with swords and kill each other to bleed."

After Chen Ang said, he pondered for a moment and said: "However, the Yiqu tribe is a little different. It has been close to China for a long time. When Emperor Mu was a vassal of the country, he rebelled later, but he also learned some principles from China and has laws, isn't it? The completely barbaric tribe has sprouted the seeds of civilization, although it also has the barbaric customs of wizards and shamans offering blood sacrifices to demons, but it is different from those demons who live together, and even Rongdi, who is half-monster and half-human, Wukong is hard for you to make a move."

"A hundred years from now, this place will belong to the state of Qin. Don't confuse it with Yaorong!"

The young man riding a horse outside the chariot saw that Wukong was going to ask the two "scholar officials" on the chariot, and he was a little curious. He stretched his neck and looked there. When Chen Ang saw the young man, he suddenly had an idea, and said, "Go and ask the young man." , is there any caravan going to Yiqu this winter?"
