Bai Yun Chapter 73: Konoha and Daimyo

Walking in this town named Anduofu, Duanmu also felt very novel. He has never observed the lives of ordinary people in the Land of Fire so patiently.

In the middle of the town, Duanmu found a square.

On both sides of the square, there are six marble pillars.

Across the square is a shrine.

Logically speaking, Duanmu would choose to stay away from such religious buildings. But tonight out of curiosity, he walked to the temple to see what was going on here.

There is a plaque on the temple with the words "Shenwu Temple" written on it.

No one was around, Duanmu pushed open the door of the temple.

By the moonlight, Duanmu looked at the decorations in the temple.

On the front are two statues. One is Shenwu Dashen, the first name of the country of fire. The other one, known to Duanmu, is a contemporary name.

Duanmu looked at the statue of the contemporary daimyo, thinking in his heart, that this is one of the means of daimyo to rule the country of fire...

The moonlight shines on the two statues, and the eyes of the statues hidden in the shadows are even more gloomy.

The statue is three meters high and even majestic.

Duanmu saw fragments that had fallen over the years at the foot of the statue, which were just clay sculptures.

Withdrawing his gaze from the statue, Duanmu walked around the temple.

The walls and roof of the shrine are painted with continuous frescoes.

A big ship rides the wind and waves, sailing on the boundless sea, and the **** of martial arts stands on the bow...

A group of people are landing at a port. The Great God of Shenwu is the leader, followed by many pairs of boys and girls, as well as various craftsmen.

A line of words is written on the mural here: "In the name of Xunxian, the great **** of martial arts came from heaven across the sea, with five hundred boys and girls, two thousand craftsmen, a total of more than three thousand people."

Duanmu looked at these descriptions, and sure enough, it had something to do with Xu Fu Dongdu, who Duanmu knew.

Afterwards, the murals began to display the miracles of Shenwu.

Beckoning to the sun, the fire that brings people.

Beckoned to the earth and brought rice seeds to the people.

Beckoned to the mountain, brought iron ore to the people.

The almighty first-generation daimyo, the almighty daimyo of all dynasties...

Going forward, the God of War moved to the current position of the capital and established the Kingdom of Fire.

The mural is not over yet, the kingdom of fire, under the leadership of the **** of martial arts, is fighting against ancient alien beasts.

In these murals, Duanmu saw many ancient giant beasts such as the Orochi, Penghou, and Jiaojiao.

Perhaps, many of the strange abilities in the ninja world originated from the era of Shenwu.

After the death of Shenwu, his sons traveled to other parts of the continent and established the Kingdom of Water, the Kingdom of Wind, and other countries.

It turns out that in mythology, all the countries in the mainland originated from one family.

I don't know if Shenwu God knows that his descendants will fill the Nanhe River with the brains of their descendants...

The last mural in this shrine is a scene of talks between the grandfather of the contemporary daimyo and the first-generation Hokage of Konoha Village signing a contract to establish a one-village-one-nation system.

"Come out!"

Duanmu shouted back, he had already sensed that another person had also come to the temple.

A figure appeared at the door, it was Dororo.

"Let's go, let's talk somewhere else, it makes me uncomfortable."

After that, Duanmu walked out with Dororo.

Across the aisle square, the two sat down on the roadside chairs and looked at the dark temple together.

The two of them wandered, thinking about their own business.

Dororo was silent for a while, then said:

"Teacher, do you feel uncomfortable in the temple?"

"Yes, the education I received from childhood made me very uncomfortable."

"Teacher, can you help me?"

"Of course."

"Teacher, what do you think about the name?"

Duanmu scratched his head, this is a bit difficult:

"What do you want to ask me about?"

Dorolo frowned and thought: "For example, in mythology, the **** of martial arts asked for fire for human beings, but... but after our research, this is wrong!"

"You?"

Dororo said in a low voice: "Maybe... now I'm the only one left..."

Duanmu doesn't care anymore, everyone has a story.

Duanmu thought about it and said:

"As for the origin of the fire you mentioned, of course, it is not something that the name of the gods and martial arts seeks for human beings. Flames are natural phenomena, and flames may appear when there is burning material and oxygen."

"Isn't that big name lying? Why isn't anyone correcting these mistakes?"

Duanmu is also very difficult, try to explain his thoughts clearly:

"Well...now, it's not a wrong question, it's a religious question.

Many natural phenomena were inexplicable in ancient times.

People live in endless dangers and unknowns. Facing the fear of nature and the violence of human society, people need spiritual sustenance.

This kind of spiritual sustenance is the root of religion, which is the meaning of daimyo in that era.

Daimyo used to be a bond and banner that united people to fight in ancient times, and it was very important in that era. "

Dororo doesn't listen to the name at all, so I hurriedly received:

"What about now? Does the name still make sense?"

Duanmu has figured out Dororo's attitude. It seems that this kid is very dissatisfied with the big name.

“Now?

Daimyo is a product of history, it happened and developed in history.

The origin of daimyo is ignorance and incompetence in the face of nature and violence.

It can only die naturally because of the disappearance of its roots.

In other words, when people are strong enough to rely on their own strength to solve the problem of nature and violence, instead of asking for help from the gods, then the daimyo will naturally have no soil to survive.

The name is raised by the people and must be eliminated by the people themselves. "

Dororo said excitedly:

"Teacher Duanmu, have you seen the extravagant and brutal lives of the daimyo and princes in the capital?

Can't the daimyo be eliminated as soon as possible? "

Duanmu said hesitantly:

"From the point of view of force, the daimyo is easily eliminated by the ninja.

There are many ninjas in history who were able to raze the land of fire to the ground.

But do you know why the ninja villages in the Five Kingdoms never did this? "

Dororo asked in confusion:

"Why? Can't the ninja kill the daimyo to replace him? The country of fire can change a ruler at random, even if it is a ninja, it must be better than the daimyo!"

Duanmu returns to:

"Because, the daimyo of the Fire Nation is not just the daimyo, but a whole set of religions.

What if the daimyo were killed?

Shrines around the world will also elect new daimyo with the bloodline of the Great God of Martial Arts.

The history of ninjas is only a thousand years, but the history of daimyo is more than two thousand years.

During these two thousand years, the daimyo has encountered many enemies, but the daimyo still stands.

Although this is the first time I come into contact with a daimyo's shrine, there must be a strong shrine system in all parts of the Fire Nation.

Their combat prowess may not be very strong, but they must have developed a powerful means of apologetics and preaching.

In more than two thousand years, these methods have been repeatedly polished and experimented, and every reaction of people has been predicted and responded to, forming a strong inertia.

It is easy to kill the daimyo, but it is very difficult to solve the situation after.

The same sentence, the daimyo can only perish naturally.

As the boundaries of people's abilities expand, as people conquer more and more unknowns, daimyo will naturally die out.

Force on the daimyo will not solve the problem.

On the contrary, once resorting to force, countless violent extremists will be created.

So, that's why Konoha chose to work with Daimyo. "

Duanmu's past life science is so advanced, religion still has strong vitality, not to mention this ninja world. The first generation can eliminate the daimyo, but it cannot eliminate the fanaticism in the eyes of countless believers.

Dororo lowered his head in disappointment, he raised his head again, and asked suspiciously:

"Teacher Duanmu, why did you know so much about the temple of the daimyo for the first time?"

Duanmu patted Dororo on the shoulder and said:

"How dare you come out to be a teacher without a diamond?"
