    It must be said that the Nvwa lineage was in the highest inspiration when building houses, Deng Chanyu's sudden wit, finally grasped the momentary luster three days ago.

    What kind of book should I write?

    Yes, you can write about the Book of Changes (I Ching). Since the term "Zhou" is ignored, you can call it the Han Version of I Ching!

    With the cave repaired, Deng Chanyu calculated with her fingers, and indeed it was roughly what she had guessed.

    The original author of the Zhouyi should have been Ji Chang, but in this time and space, Ji Chang had already died nearly three years ago. He also lacked the seven years of experience being imprisoned in Youli. He only had the idea of writing the Yi Jing. In the last ten or so years of Ji Chang's life, he was constantly being harshly beaten by the Great Shang Dynasty, either farming or moving mountains, with no energy to write and no quiet environment for creative work.

    The Yi Jing claims to have "three sages of human kind, three ages of the world, and three dynasties of the land."

    In the primitive age, the Yaozhixiang was left by Fuxi, who depicted the laws of the universe. In the middle age, Zhou Wenwang developed the principles of Yijing. In the modern age, Confucius combined Wenwang's Yijing with his own interpretation, which ultimately became the Yijing.

    As expected, Confucius should be Kong Xuan or at least a clone of Kong Xuan. This is someone from within the same group, so there's no need to overthink it.

    Who is Fu Xi? He is Kong Chanyu's grandfather. Kong Chanyu's grandfather taught her the Yi Jing and then she compiled it into a book. After a few hundred years, Kong Xuan pulled a few more hairs, which is also reasonable.

    Deng Chanyu went through the process, thinking that she involved herself in it, which can be said to be a traditional and orderly inheritance, passed down from generation to generation, with absolutely no dissonance. On the contrary, Ji Chang was added to it and it felt dissonant.

    The will of heaven was to prosper Zhou and destroy Shang, but it didn't say that it had to be the birth of the Yi Jing. It's not necessary for it to have such a broad reach. Writing a Han Yi (Han Version of I Ching) would be completely sufficient.

    Our Han state is just not cultured. Before going to war, there is no such thing as consulting the temple. Instead, we consult and divine. If there is a "good" character, we go out to fight. If a "bad" character appears, we return home. If the flagpole breaks in the wind, it means someone is coming to raid our camp. We don't look at any military strategies or wisdom before going to war. It's all about being adaptable and taking things as they come!

    Deng Chanyu thought and thought, and even felt a sense of pride that she couldn't let anyone else do it.

    Deng Chanyu finished repairing the damaged areas where the cave was leaking and rain was entering, told Baxie, and left Mount Emei in a hurry.

    To keep tabs on the true progress of the Yi Jing, she decided to come to Xigui herself.

    Otherwise, if she wrote the Han Yi (Han Version of I Ching) and found out that the Ji descendants on the other side were also working on something similar to Ji Chang's legacy, it would be awkward.

    Xigui City was much more prosperous than before.

    Without the hindrance of Yin Hong and Bo Yi Kao, Ji Fa was able to take full rein. With Jiang Ziya's ability to govern fully utilized, Xigui City had already begun to show signs of a flourishing society where one could leave one's property unguarded on the streets and not worry about it at night.

    Yang Jie was off-line, and Lei Zhen had not yet descended. Deng Hua and Xiao Zhen were the second generation of disciples, while Jiang Ziya's disciples, Wujidilu and Longxihu, were the generals. Awu Bing, the disciple of Shen Gong Bao, recently returned to the East Sea, saying that he was going to celebrate the birthday of the West Sea Dragon King.

    It seems that there are a wealth of talents, but in reality, the senior generation of Mantou disciples who are taking on major responsibilities in Xigui are Wei Hu, Han Du Long, and Xue Ehu. It's quite coincidental that these three are all disciples of the Taoist Immortal Dao Xingzun.

    That's it! Nothing else!

    Your three disciples are all in the front lines. Can you really sit still? Tao Xingzun, such an exceptionally low-profile high-grade exponent of the Mantou Sect, has to sit on top of a mountain not far from Xigui City.

    He sensed Deng Chanyu's arrival and felt that there was no karmic cause between them. He simply nodded slightly, without any intention of greeting.

    The death of Yu Ding Zhen has also led Guang Chengzi to be criticized by the Primordial Heavenly Lord. As the leader of the twelve divine golden immortals, he can't avoid responsibility for his brother's death.

    Is it more important to support Zhou and defeat Shang, or is the same-school friendship more important? Even if his relationship with Yu Ding was just average, he had to say that the same-school friendship was more important at this time.
