Three Kingdoms

Chapter 389 Ceremony

Only then did Fei Qian realize that the mutton was basically roasted and was exuding an alluring aroma. He took the knife and stood in front of the roasted lamb. He searched for the customs of the Huns in his mind and found that he had no impression of it. , pondered for a moment, Hi! No matter what, just follow Fei Qian's own customs in his impression!

Fei Qian took a knife, cut each of the sheep's heads, took a small piece of meat, and threw it into the sky. Then he cut a small piece of meat from the back of the sheep, threw it on the ground, and finally cut a piece of meat on the front legs of the sheep. A small piece of meat was thrown into the unextinguished fire...

After completing such an action, Fei Qian felt that it was pretty good, but when he looked back, he saw the dull eyes of everyone including Ada, and their faces seemed to be filled with question marks...

Oh!

Isn’t it possible that we don’t have this habit yet?

Fei Qian rolled his eyes twice, coughed twice subconsciously, and then said seriously: "The first piece of meat is to honor the sky, it is the heaven that gives us cattle and sheep; the second piece of meat is to the earth, it is the earth that nurtures us. , the third piece of meat is dedicated to the ancestors. It was the ancestors who came here first, discovered this place, and developed this place..."

"oh……"

The old soldier from Bingzhou explained in a murmur, and Ata suddenly understood. He knelt down in front of Fei Qian, held Fei Qian's feet, and kissed Fei Qian's shoes. Then he stood up happily and began to cut the mutton, carefully. It seems that after such a ceremony, this roast sheep seems to have become sacred...

And not only that, after Fei Qian made such a move on the spur of the moment, it even turned into a specific ritual requirement. When the other roast sheep were cooked, the barbarians also invited the Han army’s military commander or The village chief came to perform the operation.

Unexpectedly, Fei Qian saw that both Han and Hu people seemed to accept such a method easily, and no one found it incredible or difficult to understand.

When Fei Qian finished the work, he was still a little worried. After all, his practice of following the Mongolian habits in the impression of later generations would arouse the resentment of the Han people. As a result, it seems that the Hu people have not yet formed such customs...

Huang Cheng said with admiration: "Fei Langjun, how did you think of it? Look at the expressions of those barbarians now. They are obviously more relaxed than at the beginning, and in this way, they are also willing to listen. The military commander's orders will definitely be smoother if he is given instructions like this, tsk tsk..."

Maybe it was because of the fragrant mutton, or maybe they did such a ceremony together. The Han people and the Hu people were indeed not as distinct as they were at the beginning. They were doing their own things and no one paid attention to the other. Now they sit together and try to be with each other. Communicating using poor words and gestures...

Huang Cheng thought Fei Qian did it intentionally, but Fei Qian knew that it was just an unintentional move.

But the situation in front of him did make Fei Qian vaguely feel as if he had touched something. Thinking about the assimilation strategy he had talked about with Cai Yong before, there seemed to be some similarities.

Human beings are the most chaotic creatures, and everyone has their own thoughts and cognitions.

Therefore, the entire world mainly composed of humans is actually disordered, chaotic, and irregular. Even Zhuge Liang, who is almost as intelligent as a demon, may have considered everything thoroughly, but perhaps a general on both sides of the enemy and us suddenly ate too little. , or eating too much, or even having a bad stomach, may affect the state of the battle between the two armies. This can never be fully estimated...

You can guess and calculate, but no one can guarantee that others will 100% follow their own ideas. It's like walking on a long and dark road. No one knows when it will happen. Stepping into a dark pit and falling into the abyss...

However, we can use some actions to influence others, and then make others more inclined to act according to our previous assumptions, just like the clusters of fireworks lit on the main road of Huarong Road...

An act, a ritual, a hint.

Although Fei Qian was chewing mutton in his mouth, his mind was not at all on appreciating the sweetness of the mutton, but was constantly thinking about it.

Just like what he did just now, although it is not a big deal to people of later generations, for people in the entire Han Dynasty, whether they are Hu people or Han people, they have a typical sense of ritual.

The sense of ritual may bring another word - awe.

Fei Qian recalled the three aspects he had just dedicated, the sky, the earth and the ancestors...

People are creatures with a sense of experience. If something is familiar, they will naturally use the experience accumulated in similar environments to guide their behavior. What to do, how to do it, and the consequences of doing it will all be reflected in experience. There is a judgment in advance.

But if there is no experience at all, most people will be at a loss. This is why some people who are very confident seem to be a different person on another occasion.

To create a sense of ritual, we must first have a corresponding concept. This concept should come from life, but it should be higher than life, just like the sky, earth and ancestors just now.

Today, there are probably only a few people in the Han Dynasty who can clearly understand what is in the sky, what is under the earth, and where their ancestors have gone...

In other words, there may be only one, and that is Fei Qian himself.

Therefore, when facing the same unknown and the same mystery, both the Hu people and the Han people have the same inexperience, so it is easy to form a common suggestion, and the sense of mystery and awe is born...

Maybe I should make more use of similar rituals like this, Fei Qian thought. After all, rituals are easier to cultivate group consciousness, and they can also put people under the pressure of the group and unknowingly give in.

When most people agree, new ordinary people will also agree subconsciously.

Fei Qian squinted at the tricolor flag flying above the camp. The next step, after this battle, should be to sort out and establish the overall consciousness of the entire army immediately.

Fei Qian was suddenly very eager to finish the battle at hand first, fight it well, and then carry out some experimental actions first, and even invite Master Cai Yong to come if possible...

After all, there is a huge difference between playing this kind of ritual and this kind of group suggestion, with or without a figure who looks like a religious leader. What's more, in Confucian culture, there is a special one used to eliminate individuals. Chaotic consciousness, a classic work that instills ideas...

At that time, there were three brothers in Julu County, one was Zhang Jiao, the other was Zhang Bao, and the other was Zhang Liang. That Zhang Jiao was originally a scholar of no rank. He went into the mountains to collect medicines and met an old man with a childish face with blue eyes. He called Jiao Jiao to a cave and taught him the three volumes of the Book of Heaven, saying: "This name is "Taiping". "Essential Techniques"..." He asked for his name, and the old man said: "I am an old immortal from Nanhua."...

After Sun Ce died, Sun Quan fell down beside his bed crying. Zhang Zhao said: "This is not the time for a general to cry. It is better to attend to funerals and manage military and state affairs at the same time."... Invite Sun Quan to come out of the hall and receive congratulations from the civil and military audience. Sun Quan was born with a big mouth, [blue eyes and purple beard]. ... "I have looked at the Sun brothers all over, and although they are all talented and talented, they are all in the same position. But Zhongmou has a majestic appearance and an extraordinary bone structure, which is the epitome of great nobility. He also enjoys a long life, which is inferior to all others."
