During the Warring States period, the theory of five elements of geomantic omen rose, and people believed in ghosts and gods very much. If a person has theocracy, then many people are willing to go through fire and water for the chosen person, even if they die without regret. Liu Bang knew this very well, so he asked his wife, Lv Zhi, to preach everywhere that he had a son of heaven. Liu Bang's gang followed him when they were young, because they thought that Liu Bang had a son of heaven and would succeed in the future. Liu bang saw that there were uprisings all over the world, and it was the time to make contributions, so he also remembered things. There must be something mysterious about the uprising. Liu bang can't figure it out. He can't learn Chen Shengzai's fish.
One day, Liu Bang met a white snake in the wild and bit him. He was too scared to think carefully, so he drew his sword and cut it. Hearing this, Lv Zhi thought that the white snake was rare and could make a big fuss, but the white snake had been eaten by Liu Bang and others. So Lv Zhi publicized everywhere that White Snake was Bai Di's son and was beheaded by Chi Di's son, so Liu Bang became Chi Di's son with immortal blood. Once the story spread, there was an endless stream of people who took refuge in Liu Bang. Soon Liu Bang recruited thousands of soldiers and completed the accumulation of original capital.
"Historical records. Biography of Gaozu reported the former: "There is a big snake ahead, and I would like to return it." Gaozu was drunk and said, "A strong man can swim, He Wei!" Naiqian drew his sword and stabbed the snake. The snake then split into two parts and opened. Miles, drunk, lying down. Later generations came to the snake house, and an old woman cried at night. When people asked them why they were crying, they said, "People killed my son, so they cried." The man said, "What does the son want to kill?" "I, the son of Bai Di, became a snake and had power. Now I was beheaded by Chi Di's son, so I cried. " People are insincere because of their feelings, and want to say it, but suddenly disappear because of their feelings.
According to historical records, the person who told the world that Liu Bang was the son of Chi Di was an old woman who claimed to be the White Emperor (that is, the White Snake). She appeared only for one purpose, that is, to tell the world that Liu Bang is the son of Chi Di. The author thinks that the story of Liu Bang's killing the white snake must have been performed by Liu Bang and Lv Zhi for the world to see. The old woman may have been tricked by Lv Zhi, and her sudden disappearance must be a cover-up, similar to a magic show. There is nothing strange in the world, people think strangely, people believe in God, and many ghosts and gods are actually farce written and directed by human beings.
