Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 8
"Then, after learning martial arts, which country do you want to help dominate the world?" The old man continued to ask.

"Of course it's Qin!" Ziying replied immediately.Although he is now in the capital of Zhao State, in fact, he lives in the mansion of General Zhao State.But after understanding the identities of the old man and Sima Shang, Ziying no longer feared them, and expressed his thoughts openly.

Because Ziying knows that Momen is only against war and hopes to create a stable and peaceful world, not against a certain country.

"Why do you want to help Qin State? Is it because you are from Qin State and your uncle is the monarch of Qin State." The old man continued to ask with a calm smile.

Ziying thought about it for a while, and thought about what kind of sentences would suit his tone of voice, and said: "I have heard my father say that the state of Wei in South Korea has been maimed by the state of Qin, so there is nothing to worry about; A prostitute, close to villains and distant from virtuous ministers, generals are short-sighted; although Chu State is very discordant, after Han, Zhao and Wei are pacified, they can defeat it by gathering all the soldiers of the whole country; while Yan State is too weak and Qi State only wants to protect itself We will definitely not take the opportunity to send troops to attack Qin, and it will be difficult to save Qi Yan after the rest of the countries are destroyed."

Moreover, I heard from my father that since the Reformation of Lord Shang, our country, Qin, has become stronger day by day, and we also have enough food from Bashu soldiers.If I learn martial arts well, of course I will assist Qin. "

If a two-year-old child of mine utters such truths, others will definitely not believe them, and they can only push all the words on his father, Cheng Yu. "When I go to other countries to fight against Qin, don't I just hit a stone with an egg."

"It's a good sentence to hit a rock with an egg." After hearing Ziying's words, the old man seemed a little unable to control his emotions. He was obviously laughing but laughed so much that tears flowed. "It turns out that the old man has been running around for half his life, but he has been hitting rocks with eggs."

"Unfortunately, the old man has lived for most of his life, and at the end of the day, the loess is almost buried up to his neck before he understands this truth.

The old man claims to be good at astronomy and geography through ancient and modern times, which is hard to match.I have never thought about it, but I can't see it as thoroughly as Rao Yangjun. Such a smart person must have a plan to betray Qin and Zhao. Could it be that the heavens are about to destroy the six eastern countries! After a short pause, after a long laugh, the old man sighed sadly: "I accept you as an apprentice!"From today onwards, you are my closed disciple of Gai Nie."

After hearing what the old man said, Ziying's first reaction was to make a fortune!

This is Gai Nie, who can be called the number one master in the Jianghu during the Warring States Period.Jing Ke, who assassinated the King of Qin, was considered to be a master of martial arts, but after being glared at by Gai Nie, he ran away like a shit.

What a stroke of luck!

"You go and call Sima Shang over, I have something to ask him, and I will give you a teacher's apprentice ceremony by the way!"

After listening to Gai Nie's words, Ziying took Sima Jingjing and ran all the way to Sima Shang's office.He didn't bother to explain the reason, just said that Grandpa Gai Nie asked us to come and let you stay, and dragged Sima Shang to the small courtyard of the back house.

After Sima Shang arrived, he first heard that Gai Nie was going to take Ziying as his apprentice, and Dang even petrified on the spot.

He stammered and said: "The giant wants to accept disciples, I shouldn't have said anything, but Ziying is the clan of the Qin State, how can he accept the inheritance of my Mohist sect? And according to the news from our Mohists in the Qin State , Lord Chang'an Chengyu has a very close relationship with the King of Qin, we suspect that Lord Chang'an has hidden secrets behind his betrayal of Zhao, how can..."

"I know what you said. Another thing I asked you to come over today is that from now on, our Momen will no longer resist the Qin State. If the war is tight, we can even help the Qin army to wipe out the six kingdoms." Sima Shang Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ge Nie.

After hearing Gai Nie's next words, Sima Shang's eyes widened in shock, his facial muscles twitched several times, he swallowed deeply, and was speechless.

Compared with this order, the matter of taking Ziying as a disciple is nothing at all.

After hearing Sima Shang's address, Ziying finally figured out the identity of the old man.The contemporary Mohist giant!

Compared with other schools in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, Mohism is significantly different.Compared with academic schools such as Confucianism and Legalism, the organizational structure of Mohism is more like a modern political party organization, but its control is stricter. Its top leader is called Juzi, and the members of the school are called Mohists.

Because it mainly represents the rights and interests of small and medium-sized people and handicraftsmen, it became famous during the Warring States period as a "distinguished school". Returning to Mo (Mozi)" remarks, it can be seen that the thought of Mohism was widely spread, and Mohism even had its own armed forces and legal system at that time.

Lu Jia's "Xinyu? Siwu" has a saying: "Mozi's family is full of warriors." "Huainanzi Taizu Xun" also records "? Mozi served 80 or [-] people, and they can fight fire and death. Death does not repay the heel, it is caused by transformation." It can be seen that the Mo sect has a strong control over the sect.

As far as Ziying knows, Mohists at the present stage are mainly divided into several parts, one part is the handicraftsmen in the society, who mainly inherit Mozi's theory on mechanism and mathematics; the other part is the rangers in the society, these people It can be said that everyone is highly skilled in martial arts and is the main source of armed forces of the Mohist school; the other part is scattered in various countries to serve the monarchs of various countries and spread Mohist ideas, such as Sima Shang.

Seeing that Sima Shang was stunned and remained silent, Gai Nie continued: "This old man has been bumpy for half his life, and he claims to uphold the righteous way to help the weak and force the strong. It is only now that he realizes that all he has done is to make the world more beautiful. lonely soul."

"After King Zhou lost power, there have been endless wars in the Central Plains for hundreds of years. All countries have disregarded the loss of life for their own interests. If the heroes continue to stand side by side, the war will never end. Therefore, from today, my Momen will no longer go against the current and arrive at the Qin Dynasty. Edge."

After listening to Gai Nie's words, Sima Shang froze there.After all, he is also an old man in his 50s. Everything he had done for most of his life was suddenly reversed, and he couldn't react at once.

However, it is not unreasonable to savor what Ge Nie said carefully.The world is suffering. If we continue to maintain this situation of separatist rule, I am afraid that the war will not stop in the future. Unless one of the countries is wiped out, the hatred accumulated over hundreds of years of war will be difficult to dispel.Then the pursuit of oneself and others will never be achieved.

Thinking of this, Sima Shang let out a long breath, as if letting go of some burden, he said firmly: "The Mohist Sima Shang takes orders."

Gai Nie nodded slightly, and continued, "Today I'm taking Ziying as a disciple, so come over and be a witness!"

While talking, Gai Nie went to his hut and muttered in a low voice: "I hope today's decision will make this world no longer chaotic, and let my Mohist sect flourish."

Sima Shang was in a daze when he heard it, looking at Gai Nie in front of him whose body was no longer tall and straight, he wondered whether what the giant was referring to was his decision against Momen, or whether he accepted Ziying as his disciple.
