Chapter 76: Smelting of the bones, Zhu Rong blood (3)

By the time we arrived in Pei, Mozi had been here for six days.

This time, the ink masters who went to Peidi did not come out in full bloom. In addition to the things that had been decided before, some of the ink masters had to stay in Shangqiu to deal with the craftsman association.

In addition, there were only one hundred and fifty people brought in advance by Gong Zaoye.

Peicheng is a small city, not big, with a circumference of only six or seven miles, and the longest wall is only two miles.

Built on the mountain, south of Weishan. Weishan is just a mound with no stones on the mountain. As a small city, Pei cannot have too long walls, each with its own system.

Before entering the city gate, the mai Qisui, who followed Mozi to take the lead, was already waiting on the road.

I saw the carriages that Shi was leading from afar, hurried over and counted them and asked, "Is it okay on the road?"

"It's okay. Although there are not many people, no one dares to take action. Where is the giant?"

"Lecture notes outside the city. The giant said you are coming over. Gong Zaoye found some things here, and this place is not as good as outside Shangqiu."

Shi looked at the small town, handed the bamboo slips in his hand to Zaomei Qisui and said, "Tao people here first, I'll go in a moment."

After getting goodbye to Zaomai Qisui, I went to the place where Mozi’s lecture notes first.

Before he got close, he saw several sword-holding ink men patrolling there. When he saw Shi, he nodded and asked Shi to come over.

When he approached, he found more than 30 mourners kneeling on the ground. Luo Chuili was keeping a questionable posture, and the expression on his face seemed to have been persuaded.

After getting closer, I heard Mo Zi say, "...even if it is customary in China, it is the same. Why do you kill your father and reward your son? How can you eat your son and reward your father if you don't use benevolence and righteousness? Why don't you eat your son if you don't eat your son? Later, Wenjun from Luyang asked me again..."

Shi didn't know if other scholars also had the habit of calling China, but Mozi did call China directly, and without changing a word, it was the original meaning, not only the concept of geography but also the dual identity of cultural concepts.

When he heard Mo Zi talk about this, he felt a little moved. People like Mo Zi have a wide range of interactions and telling stories is different from those of him, the son of a shoemaker.

He, the son of a shoemaker, can only tell some common trivial things. When Mozi spoke, he usually said, "When the Lord Wen of Luyang saw me, when the Lord Lu asked me, when the King of Chu talked to me, when the Lord Qi asked me about political affairs..."

After a while of emotion, I listened to the lecture notes of Mo Zi and these Momen, and roughly understood the causes and consequences.

Wenjun of Luyang once said that in the southwest of Chu, there was a barbarian country called Qiao.

People in Qiaoguo have a habit of eating the first child they gave birth to, and they called it Yidi. Anyone who gave the first child delicious food to the king, and the king would be rewarded. This may have been casually mentioned by Wenjun and Mozi when they were talking nonsense, so they asked Mozi whether it was ridiculous or not.

Mo Zi replied: Isn’t the same in Chinese customs? My father was forced to conscript him to fight an unjust war and exchanged his son’s wealth for death. Isn’t this just giving his father to the king for food and his son receives rewards? There are also nobles who summoned labor to build palaces, and people often died of starvation. Isn’t this a sacrificial man? At least the barbarians even gave rewards. Building palaces and sacrificial man can’t even give rewards.

Therefore, to change these unjust customs, there will be no unjust wars in China, and the nobles will no longer recruit farmers for their own selfish interests... After doing this, we will mock the barbarians.

He is a person who is good at finding common ground, otherwise he would not have been able to summarize the geometric definition of circles, nor could he use induction to find the eight foundations of optics.

When I first came, I wonder why Mozi talked about this. After listening for a while, I realized that Mozi was using this to prepare for the future.

It is probably because there are too many unjust customs in the world and need to be carefully distinguished. It is not that what has always existed must be in line with the righteousness.

Therefore, since Luo Chuili feels unrighteous about the sacrifices and wealth accumulation here, he must also recognize the rest of the unrighteous things in the world, be good at distinguishing, and oppose them all in the future, even if they are deeply rooted customs.

At the end, he seemed to praise Luo Chaili a few more words, saying that he would keep his mind of being angry when he saw something wrong, and to distinguish more injustice in the future. There will always be endless sword skills.

Then we talked about some things that seemed natural and had been passed down for a long time, but they were actually unjust and ridiculous, and needed to be changed in the future.

Mozi often evaluates the governance of various countries, and often criticizes them in front of the kings of various countries. The kings can do nothing. It is normal for them to curse the unrighteous policies of various countries among the Mo people.

It sounds like Mozi is a bit like changing customs and changing the three views of the world. He thinks again and again, isn’t the so-called synonyms the same thing? Instilling what is good and what is wrong, hasn’t it been doing this all the time and present in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad? It’s just that the difference between time and space and geography is different, right and wrong.

After a while, after Mo Zi finished speaking, he saw Shi listening, and waved at Shi and said, "You are here just now. You also heard these things. Mr. Sai and Tang Han knew a lot about it. I wonder if they had heard about the affairs of Qiaoyi and the people? What would you say?"

After thinking for a while, he said, "Mr. Tang Han's meaning is similar to that of a master. Mr. Sai rarely talks about meaning, only talks about the origin. He has a few words that mention the affairs of crossing the bridge and barbarians and eating people."

When Mozi heard about the origin of things, he became interested. He was a person who liked to explore the origin of things and asked, "What did you say?"

"The giant also knew that Mr. Sai had the saying that the nine-level paradise was. He also knew that many barbarians lived together when they got married, and knew that their father did not know their mother. According to Mr. Sai, the bridge and barbarians should be at the end of the second-level paradise. Originally, women collected men and lived in groups and crossed, and the children only knew that their father did not know their mother."

"After understanding the will of heaven and learning to slash and fire, men can support their families, and naturally hope that their bloodline will be passed down. However, the custom of group marriages is still there, so I killed my first son because I don't know if the first son is his own bloodline. The so-called Yidi is actually the continuation of the bloodline of the man who cultivates the bloodline."

"If you break the customs, you must not only have the sage king to make rituals, but also innovate the methods of farming and labor. The former is light, but there is no light, and there is no shadow. The horns of light and darkness that are shot in the incoming light and dark may also change the appearance of shadows; the latter is objects, and there is no shadow, and there is always a shadow of things."

He simply said something similar, including the I-Tian military system and other issues. Everyone nodded, thinking it made sense.

Mo Zi thought for a moment and praised: "That's true. This is what you said. If you want to reach this paradise, you must have iron tools, silk from plants, silk from clay seals, and eight-brush official script? These are things. Only with these things can you cast a shadow that matches things? Otherwise, it will only rely on the transformation of light and light and dark, and it will not last long?"

Shi nodded, Mo Zi stopped talking, and was still thinking about the questions Shi had just mentioned. The more he thought about them, the more he felt it made sense, and he was a little surprised.

I have heard of so many things and have always believed that everything has its origin, but I have never thought that these things that seem to be just customs actually contain these principles that conform to the origin of things.

When I thought of applying similar methods to evaluate the Icefield Final Military System, I felt more eager to see with my own eyes what the world would look like after the popularization of iron tools, words, grass and silk.

When Mo Zi was still thinking, he took the opportunity to instill some similar truths for those Mo people, all of which were simple truths and were only used for enlightenment.

He said a lot more. When everyone was fascinated by the sound of the sky, Mozi looked at the sky, let everyone disperse first, and asked them to prepare supper.

He also said that more than 20 people he brought with him were also here. After dinner, the squad leaders from all over the country gathered together to listen to Gong Zaoye’s discussion on the matter of Peidi and discuss countermeasures.

Even if the Mozhe did not come out in full, he had made long-term plans and carried bottles and jars. He asked someone to buy corn and then buried a pit in the wilderness to cook.

After the meal, more than 30 leaders of Mo Wu gathered in one place and formed a semicircle.

Mo Zi sat in front of everyone in the middle. On the left were Qi Wuhao, Ji Chengzi, Gong Zaoye and other seven-wonders present, and on the right were Shi and other secretaries, responsible for recording, as well as those radicals and subordinates who were not Qi Wuhao.

Gong Zaoye first talked about the matter of Peidi, and then talked about the trend of sacrifices and wealth here. This is the reason why Mozi, Luo Chuili and others gave lecture notes in the afternoon.

According to Gong Zaoye, on the fifth day of May this year, a major sacrifice will be held outside Peidi. Not only will it be a sacrificial sacrifice, but it will also be a sacrifice for living people.

At this time, it is normal to worship a living person or use humans to bury him for his sacrifice. The customs on the Central Plains gradually changed, but even if it was one of the seven heroes, the custom of changing the custom of worshiping a human being for his sacrifice would have to wait until the prince who was exiled to Wei successfully seized the throne.

"Records of the Grand Historian" once recorded that in the first year of Xian Gong, Fang Zhicheng died. In the Qin State, it was normal that there was a living person sacrificial sacrifice on this old land of the Xia and Shang Earl Kingdom.

According to Gong Zaoye's investigation, these sacrificial witches were originally sacrificial witches from various ancient Xia and Shang dynasties. They had some sacrificial methods and divination methods. They looked extremely high, as if they were indeed skilled in heaven and earth.

After the country was destroyed, the original monarch family either went into exile or was taken back by the great power to raise. These people who stayed here used these ancient customs to make money and win people's hearts.

At this time, Wu, Shi and Medical had just separated, but in these ancient places, the three were one family.

Shi felt that these people might have used their own methods in the village and community and mastered some treatment methods at the beginning. At the same time, they were not good at sacrificing their own sacrificial sacrifices, and these people were professional, and it is very likely that they wanted to win people's hearts and make people believe it.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but laugh in my heart, thinking that this was a match for the opponent.

When I thought about it, I felt that this was just a collision with me. I was really trying to make a big axe in front of Lu Ban, and compared myself with someone who had been close to science for ten years to practice feudal superstition. Isn’t this arbitrary?

If you go against the practice and approach science, and engage in feudal superstitious tricks, who can match the world at this time?

However, it is clear that the root of the problem is not to use means to break superstition, but to the interests between these local tribes and the old nobles.

If the power of sacrifice is to completely remove the ruling foundation of these old nobles. Furthermore, if the way to move people's wealth is like killing parents, the entire Peidi is easily incited to oppose the Mo people.

The Mo people still have no foundation here, and fighting can easily cause the world to be furious and work together to kill them, so they can only play the edge ball.

The so-called "one-touching" moves the whole body is not as simple as you do in a village community.

To deal with such a thing, you need to take a two-pronged approach. A pair of materialistic farmers' iron fists will be smashed over and kicked out with popular science legs. You will definitely be able to treat both the symptoms and the root causes.

It’s a pity that he has the ability to popularize science. He should basically understand any feudal superstitious means that Wu Zhu could use at this time. At this time, this trick may not be as good as his use of honey to attract ants.

However, the pair of iron fists of the Kunnong were not yet able to practice, so they couldn't even slap them at this time, and at most they were a little finger.

Don't hurt yourself and break your bones...

Half of the ink people were glaring at the ears of the sky, each of which was exactly what Luo Chuili looked like. When he heard that he wanted to burn the living people to death, he wanted to kill the other party's family now.

But half of the mature people are left, but they understand that it is difficult to do. As Gong Zaoye said, if you kill people directly, those who are deceived will hate you, and the Mozhe may find it difficult to gain a foothold here.
