Since ancient times, there has been a saying in China that there are three religions and one level.

The so-called three religions refer to the three religions of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism. Among them, Taoism was the earliest, but at that time, Taoism was not called Taoism, but was called Taoism.

The earliest appearance of alchemists can be traced back to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty when heroes emerged from all over the country, and the princes were in power, and everyone wanted to dominate the world.

But not everyone has a military force that can compete with the great princes, so some people place their hopes on gods and ghosts.

In the early Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Taoist metaphysics was not the prevalent in the Jiuzhou Province, and the Buddhist teachings had not yet been introduced eastward. The leader of the Chu State at that time, the most popular sacred cauldron in Yunmeng Daze was witchcraft.

Today's Taoist metaphysics are mostly derived from the witchcraft of the time. After Qin Shihuang devoured the six kingdoms, the wizarding style of Chu State declined. The Yunmeng Daze, which had countless legends in the past, was missing, and those displaced wizards

After many twists and turns, I finally found a way to survive

——Alchemy.

When it comes to alchemy, we have to talk about the emperor Qin Shihuang, the eternal emperor. Now Xu Fu travels to Japan to seek immortal medicine is well-known. Everyone knows that Qin Shihuang is an ideal young man who is passionate about the cause of immortality.

The wizards at that time understood this truth deeply, followed their preferences, and combined with the theory of the five elements of the Yin and Yang family, they created the later alchemists.

Today's Taoist priests were disfigured among alchemists.

Later generations criticized Qin Shihuang as a tyrant for "burning books and burying scholars" incident. After repeated verification, it has been confirmed that the ones Qin Shihuang killed at that time were actually alchemists, not Confucian scholars.

It is precisely because of this major historical event that Taoism almost died of a fetal birth.

At this critical moment, two people saved these alchemists.

One of these two people is Zhou Dunru and the other is An Qisheng. The other is a disciple of Taoism and the other is Zou Yan, the founder of the Yin-Yang family during the Warring States Period.

They traveled through Xianyang, secretly rescued some alchemists, and led them to escape into Taibai Mountain and build a hut in the mountains. The two obtained their usual methods of practicing qi and refining alchemy from the alchemists, and then based on Taoist theories,

Combining the mixed teachings of various schools such as Yin and Yang, Confucianism, military sects, etc., it combines them and calls itself a school.

This is the prototype of Taoism.

Later, Chen Sheng and Wu Guangdaze Township Uprising were rebelled and Qin II died.

Liu Bang and Xiang Yu fought for the world, and finally the overlord Wujiang committed suicide. Liu Bang won the world, and it was the Han Dynasty.

Dong Zhongshu advised the emperor, abolished all schools of thought and respected Confucianism alone.

Confucianism was thus formed.

It was also in the Han Dynasty that Zhang Qian took the Silk Road to the Western Regions for the first time, opening the door to the 36 countries in the Western Regions, and Buddhism was introduced from this.

Since then, the three religions have appeared in China.

In fact, compared with the Three Deeds, Nine-Rank is the existence that runs through the five thousand years of history from beginning to end.

The reason why the three religions are ranked before the ninth level is that in feudal society, the emergence of a religion often affects the entire world to a greater extent.

However, no matter in any era or place, Jiuliu will always occupy the majority of positions.

The situation of the Nine-Rank we are talking about now is very complicated, but the earliest word "Nine-Rank" is actually a general term for the various schools of thought that bloomed in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

The reason why it was a nine-rate is probably because there were nine schools that had the greatest influence at that time, namely: Confucianism, Taoism, Yin-Yang School, Mohism School, farming school, Legal school, famous school, traitor, and miscellaneous school.

On this basis, there are also genres such as geomancers, novelists, merchants, doctors, etc., so I will not go into details about these.

However, what I heard from senior Liu Sa later, there is actually another version of what I said about Jiuliu.

That is, the Nine Rd refers to the Nine Aristocratic families.

According to senior Liu Sa, the existence of the Nine Ages even appeared earlier than that of the various schools of thought.

It can be traced back to King Yu casting a tripod and Jun Ding Jiuzhou.

It is said that at that time, Dayu controlled the flood and defined the Jiuzhou. In order to determine the Jiuzhou, he asked his nine generals to take the bronze tripod of King Yu to the corresponding nine sea eyes of Jiuzhou, and sank the nine tripods into the sea eyes.

These nine generals and officials were the ancestors of the nine generations later.

The tripod we found in the Haiyan Dragon Palace corresponds to the Yuzhou Haiyan guarded by the Ji family, and the Liangzhou Haiyan guarded by the Lu family.

However, according to Liu Sa, the Ji family has passed away for a long time now, and I only heard that their current resident is in Qingzhou.

[To be honest, I have been using wild fruit reading to read books and follow updates recently, changing sources and switching, and pronunciation aloud for many tones, www. Android and Apple are available.]

I heard that it should have been the residence of the Liu family, but because the ancestors of the Liu family and the Ji family had both become emperors of Jiuzhou and China.

As the saying goes, the king will succeed and the enemy will fail, so the Ji family had to move to Qingzhou, which was far away near the Bohai Sea, and the Liu family went deep into the heart of the Central Plains.

This situation has not changed until the Han Dynasty.

As for the other nine families, I only listen to Liu Sa’s general introduction.

For example, the Han family is in Jizhou, and today Jizhou refers to Hebei, but thousands of years ago, Jizhou was larger than it is now, covering most of North China, and even some territory in Inner Mongolia.

The most famous Han family is Han Feizi and the military saint Han Xin. Many people in their family admire Han Xin and pursue joining the army as their lifelong pursuit.

It is said that the head of the Han family joined the army very early and participated in the counterattack against Vietnam. He was only in his teens at that time.

The Han family can be said to be a loyal family. Two-thirds of the former Han family were wrapped in horses during the War of Resistance.

After hearing from senior Liu Sa, the Han family army was guarding an isolated city in Jizhou for three months, and they were exhausted from ammunition and food, and finally died of the city collectively, which was extremely tragic.

Nowadays, as a family with relatively few people in the Nine Clans, the Han family also has historical factors.

But for this reason, no one underestimated the Han family's military strength and influence on it.

However, in the eyes of the younger generation like Liu Sa, the one who heard the most may not be how the Han family fought hard on the battlefield.

It is the story of a man named Han Wusheng in the previous generation of the Han family.

But this story is very long and needs to be put behind and talked about it separately.

The one with the closest relationship to the Han family should be the Sun family.

The ancestors of both families were from military strategists, especially the Sun family. The most famous heads of the two families were all famous and outstanding military strategists in history.

One was Sun Wu, who wrote Sun Tzu's Art of War, and the other was Sun Bin, who studied under Guiguzi, personally directed the Battle of Maling and captured and killed Pang Juan.

As the saying goes, I am a hero.

The people of the Sun family are no less than the Han family in terms of being strong and strong.

During the war, the Sun family and Han family members were the most injured.

The two of them always appear on the battlefield in a tie. If the Han family is the commander, the Sun family will be the general.

If the Sun family is the commander, the Han family will lead by example.

There is a staff officer next to Han Wusheng, named Sun Minghua. I heard that Sun Minghua is Sun Qianli's nephew.

It was not the Sun Qianli who lured us, but the Sun Qianli who died under Gersa's hands.

These two people can be said to be sympathetic.

When I heard Liu Sa tell their stories, I even felt that if Sun Minghua hadn't been a man, he would have tied the knot with Han Wusheng.

In this peaceful and prosperous era, the Sun and Han families have fewer places to use their skills.

But when I heard the heads of the two families sigh, I felt that maybe such a peaceful life is more suitable for them.

Although the world is indeed peaceful now, the children of these two families are always active in the corner of the world.

When we later wiped out the undercover agents of the Nine Clans, I once witnessed the body of the youngest child of the Sun family transported back from the other side of the Pacific Ocean. The man had just celebrated his 20th birthday when he died.

He died on the front line of peacekeeping troops fighting. It is said that when the body was dissected, nearly fifty shrapnel were dug out of his body, twenty of which were fatal injuries.

I have to admire these strong men.

But the Nine Clan family is not without women in charge.

This is the case with the Mo family.

When senior Liu Sa talked about the Mo family, I asked him, other families have celebrities, who are the celebrities in the Mo family?

It can't be Mo Yan, right?

Liu Sa said that the Mo family has always been women in charge for generations, but in ancient times, most women took their husbands' surnames after getting married, so there are very few historical records.

But there is someone I must have heard of.

That is Moye.

Yes, it is the legendary Gan Jiang Moye who forged a sword.

I thought it was just a groundless legend, but after Liu Sa said that this matter was true.

Moreover, the location of the Mo family is now located next to the lake where Ganjiang Moye Lake was later sunk.

Then I asked him again, the Mo Ya I saw that day was obviously a man.

Mo Ya is indeed a man, and the kind of man who looks good.

In a sense, Mo Ya may be more like a beauty than a beauty. When I first saw him, I almost couldn't move my eyes away.

In fact, Moya is just a generation of agents of the Mo family, equivalent to a storefront.

It is said that there are eleven sisters on Moya who are responsible for the affairs of the Mo family. He grew up in a pile of women since he was a child.

But if no one dared to say that Mo Ya is a sissy.

When he was in school, someone laughed at him as being spoiled by women and Mo Ya cut his tongue on the spot.
