Chapter 186 Revolutionary old and new strategies are endless (9)
There is grass in Chu, which is called zhe. When you squeeze juice and drink it, it is sweet and pleasant.
The zhe mentioned by the King of Chu was sugarcane. A hundred years later, the Sanlu doctor made the Chu Ci Ci: "The turtles and cannons are more zhejiu, and the scattered swans are sour and ducks are sour, and the wools are sore and the wools are sore.
The jujube is to boil sticky sugar cane juice, which is a unique cooking ingredient in the Chu people.
The words of King Chu were translated into Shi's ears through Mozhe's translation. The person in charge of the translation had only heard of Zhe before, but because of the special species in Peixian, it could be translated more accurately.
Zhe has existed for a long time, but in Zhou's elegant voice, it is not sugarcane, but a tree that can be used as bows and arrows.
However, Pei County has planted a lot of corn. After harvesting in autumn every year, many children will take the harvested corn stalks, chew the juice inside, and exclaim sweet admiration. In the story of "Shan Hai Jing", a country called Barbados is created, surpassing space and then transcending time.
I only say that people in that mysterious country can plant jujube and can squeeze juice into sugar. Its white is like snow, not maltose, and thus transport it to various countries.
Sugar cane looks different from corn, but in the ears of the ink-speaking story, it is somewhat similar to corn, and you can also imagine the children chewing with the zhejie piece by piece.
So when they translated it, they did not think about whether the Mohist school had the saying that "the world is determined to be one"...
They believe in Shi, and they believe that Shi can give a clear enough answer, and it must be an answer that conforms to the meaning of the Mo, so they feel as at ease as well.
The King of Chu gave the example of sugarcane and salt, not because he had already thought about it, but because he liked to eat sweets and liked the jujube that paid tribute to the south of Chu, so he had such a metaphor.
In his opinion, zhejiu is a sweet thing in the world, just like salt is the representative of salt. As for salt and sweetness, are they just like the Mohist definition of "profits and harms" and "rewards and punishments" as contrary to the word, he did not consider it, and even the people in the world would not consider it like the Mohist... Are sweet and salt relative?
This example is casual, but the doubt that "the world is terrible and decisive" was not thought out in an instant, but a sentence that had already come to mind when I was preparing to meet with the Mozhe.
On that day, he asked all the ministers, but no one dared to argue with the Mo family to avoid seeking humiliation. The King of Chu could only find a way for himself.
The righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period and the famous divisions are still left behind at this time. The name of the Chu people sent troops this time was that the Song people defeated the alliance.
But reason is just an excuse, just as when Qi Huan fought for hegemony, the Chu people joined forces with the princes to pay tribute to the Chu people because they did not pay tribute to the sacred tribute to the Chu people. That is not a reason, but when needed it is a reason.
The King of Chu admired the talents of these Mo people very much, and hoped that Mo people could use it for themselves and become his team to fight against the nobles.
At this time, reform was extremely difficult. In order to fight against the nobles, the king of Yan cultivated a group of "girlfriends" partners since childhood. He wanted these "girlfriends" to seize the power of the nobles when they grew up, but in the end they failed and even became a reputation as a foolish and close male lover.
As a representative of the power of the public clan that was too strong and weakened, this kind of reform was more difficult than imagined. Xiong Dang, as the hero, had read all the centralized theories of the Mohist school, and had seen the methods of the Mohist school, so he developed a desire to recruit the Mohist school.
So he thought of the theory of benefiting the world in the category of Mozhan, and convinced the Mohist school.
If the saying of benefiting the world is not used, even if he can find other reasons, the Mozhe will still not be able to use it for him.
Originally, he wanted to debate with the Mohist to benefit the world, and to make the world one.
But unexpectedly, Shi almost subconsciously responded to the sentence "Stay on One", which surprised the King of Chu for a moment. Those speeches that had been prepared for a long time seemed to be useless at all.
He looked carefully at Shi who was kneeling on the side. He had already introduced it before and thought to himself: This person is so young, his knowledge is amazing. He only said that he studied with the two hermits first. I asked the crowd, but he didn't know that there was such a hermit.
But the King of Chu did not doubt that it was fake. After reading many of the knowledge, he felt enlightened. Some problems were obviously not something that a shoemaker in Shangqiu City could know by himself, and those novel grains could not have been produced out of thin air.
Chu and Song were not blood feuds between Zheng and Han. This time, they surrounded Song to fight for hegemony, because they had no hatred for the Mo who guarded the city.
The King of Chu observed his words and expressions. When he saw Mo's answer, he answered without any doubt. He knew that Shi was the leading figure in Mo's speech this time, so he asked him head-on: Your Mo family thinks that the world is determined by one, but he helps the weak country defend the city. Isn’t this a contradiction?
The feeling of kneeling on the ground is almost a subconscious answer. This subconsciousness is not brought by historical view, but is just a habitual reflection left by reciting the text in the previous life - is the world a terrible thing? It is determined...
When he realized it, he knew that this sentence must be explained clearly and within the framework of the Mohist school, otherwise even if it is explained clearly, it will be useless to him.
Fortunately, he looked around and found that no one, including Gong Zaoye, had doubts.
Perhaps, these people have become accustomed to Shi mastering the right to interpret many principles of the Mohist school and are used to this, so they are not confused, but believe that Shi can give excellent reasons.
This trust was added to Shi, and Shi thought quickly, afraid that she would feel embarrassed and unlucky after thinking for too long, and even lost in momentum first. So she raised her head and laughed a few times, and said a few nonsense on the scene.
There is no need to translate laughter, but those nonsense in the scenes require translation, and translation takes time, which leaves more time for thinking.
After a while, he replied, "You probably don't know that the Mohist school has a saying of big things and small things."
The King of Chu asked him: I don’t know, please ask for advice.
Shi replied: If you hold a sword and cut a head, you will die if you are beheaded. Is the dead man definitely the one who has been beheaded? This may not be. The person who has been beheaded will definitely die, but the dead man may not be beheaded. Can you understand this?
The King of Chu nodded and said that he could understand. Shi said: "If the world wants to be stable, it must be determined to be one. If it is determined to be stable, will it definitely benefit the world? This may not be. If the king enforces the laws of Houyi, Xia Jie, and Shang Zhou, then even if the world is determined to be one, can it benefit the world? On the other hand, if the world cannot be one, the princes are in dispute, and fierce soldiers are rising everywhere, this will definitely not benefit the world."
"So, if you benefit the world, you must be one. If you determine it, it is only the basis for benefiting the world, but it cannot necessarily benefit the world."
The King of Chu smiled and said, "I heard that Qi people are good at racing horses, and they have two good horses, and are named A and B. Even if the divine horses are, can they compare with Chiji, Tuoli, Baiyi, Julun, Shanzi, Quhuang, Hualiu, and Lu'er?"
These eight horses are eight divine horses driving to Egypt in "The Legend of Emperor Mu". At this time, cultural life was scarce, and the articles of Mozhe were also widely spread to Chu Capital. The King of Chu naturally read them and had fantasized about having these eight horses.
He used the eight horses in "The Legend of Emperor Mu" as a metaphor, which is also an idea of a good person.
He did not expect Mo to accept it and bow to him, nor did he expect Mo to make a good relationship with him and give up defending the city. Duke Luyang and Modi are both teachers and friends. When Duke Luyang wanted to attack Zheng State, Modi still said that even if you are my friend and regard me as a husband, I will still help Zheng people defend the city.
The King of Chu believed that his relationship with Mozhe had not reached this point, so he just hoped to plant the seeds of friendship at this time and to attract Mozhe when the business in Shangqiu is over in the future.
The King of Chu said again: "Even if the A and B are divine horses, they must not be able to meet the Eight Horses of the Pharaohs by Emperor Mu. But each of them has their own speeds and slowness. Isn't that the fast one closer to the Eight Horses? If the Mohist family believes that the world of profit must be determined first, then is it up to me to determine one? Isn't it closer to the world of profit?"
In fact, the truth about the King of Chu is appropriate.
Later generations all said that Qin had tyranny, but after seeing the problems of the bloodline, aristocrats, culture, weights and measures, language, and writing, I really felt that the achievements of the Ancestral Dragon could be said to have created the unification of the world.
However, these words cannot be said at this time, at least they cannot be said that all wars are just, which does not conform to the three views of Mozhe.
After thinking a little, he said, "I once studied with Mr. Tang Han. He had a magical skill that could cure people and give birth to white bones. I once saw a man with an unbearable headache. Mr. Tang Han used Mafei Powder as a medicine and took it. This man was sleeping and did not know the pain. Mr. Tang Han used a sword to open the cranium and took out three worms. The blood flowed like a stream, and told me that this worm was a headache. Later, this man recovered and his head did not hurt..."
This is another story of a maze, but it is full of imagination and is more accepted by people in the Warring States Period. At this time, it has not yet entered a blind spot, and anatomy has developed, not an era that cannot be dissected in the next thousand years.
This story is full of novelty, and everyone present fantasized about Mr. Tang Han’s medical skills and couldn’t help but sigh.
At this time, a slight illness will kill people. Medicine is not developed. The witch doctor has just separated and is still in its inception.
Bian Que's master Changsangjun has already begun to travel around the world. Most of these people have heard of them. Some nobles have also received favors. However, even Changsangjun's methods are not as clever as the so-called story made up by Hua Tuo, who is actually called Tang Han.
Some people may think that if there is such a magical skill, even if the daughter of the daughter wants to find this person as a doctor, it is a pity that the two masters who heard that Shi were both dead and turned into ashes and scattered into the earth. If Shi, the senior brother named Republic, could find it, it would be fine.
Some people also think that Mozhe has never lie. Since he is a senior figure among Mozhe, his words must always be like Mozhe.
But he didn't know that there was only a few words of truth in his mouth. At this time, he first called everyone and said, "Mr. Tang Han's Ma Fei San uses several strange poison medicines, one of which is called Caowu. Ordinary people will die if they eat it. They need to be supplemented with different drugs to neutralize the toxicity."
"From this perspective, can we say that Caowu is Mafei San? If someone is unbearable in illness and needs a craniotomy, are you going to feed a large amount of Caowu and say that Caowu is closer to Mafei San, so is it surely useful?"
He stood up and saluted the King of Chu and said, "That's the reason. In the Mohist school, in the eyes of the giants, it is determined to benefit the world, just as grass and black is to Ma Fei San. In the eyes of the Mohist school, you and these meat eaters are actually very poisonous grass and black, which is unwise."
