Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 9 Heaven and Human Induction
Although the hut where Gai Nie lives looks unattractive from the outside, just like a hut in the country, but once inside, it seems to have a different world.

Knives, forks, swords, halberds, axes, axes, hooks, guns, and various weapons, as well as rows of bookshelves, and many delicate objects filled the small room to the brim.

Gai Nie casually picked up a fine incense, silently inserted it into the incense burner of the incense table in the main hall of the house, and bowed respectfully and deeply to the statue of Mozi hanging in the hall.Seeing this, Sima Shang and Ziying followed suit.

Then Gai Nie held both sides of the incense burner tightly with both hands, and pressed down hard. The three legs of the incense burner actually sunk down a little.

In this era, besides Lu Ban's descendants, only Momen, who has just dabbled in modern mechanics, can create such ingenious mechanics.

After the entrance was opened, Gai Nie turned around and said something to keep up, then turned his head and entered the tunnel first. Sima Shang was worried that Ziying was too young, so he quickly picked up Ziying, told Sima Jingjing not to run around outside, and followed into the tunnel.

Gai Nie, who was one step ahead, had already lit the oil lamp, and when Ziying and Sima Shang entered, the small underground space was already filled with light.Taking a closer look, it has an area of ​​about 20 square meters.

The furnishings in the room are extremely simple, there are five memorial tablets placed on a huge chopping board, and there is nothing else.

Ziying didn't recognize the tablet in the house, but Sima Shang was extremely shocked when he saw it.Hastily asked: Master Juzi, do you want it? "

"I've been wrong all my life. This time I want to bet one last time. If the bet is right, then our Mo family may have an answer to the question that our Mo family has been searching for for hundreds of years. If the bet is wrong...forget it, Ziying is still young anyway. There is still a chance to correct, and I plan to teach him personally in the future, I hope he can stick to his heart in the future." Gai Nie said a little sadly but loudly.

After finishing speaking, Gai Nie took Ziying from Sima Shang's arms. "Come on, kowtow to the patriarchs. This is the patriarch Mo Di; this is the patriarch Meng Sheng; this is Tian Xiangzi....

Following Gai Nie, numbly kowtowed to the five tablets, and Ziying, who understood what was written on the tablets, finally understood why Sima Shang was so shocked.

This shouldn't be simply taking an apprentice.If Ge Nie accepts his disciples alone, he will not be able to kowtow to the previous Mohist giants, and it is impossible to directly appoint himself as the Mohist giant. After all, he is only a two-year-old child, but I am afraid that he wants to treat himself as the next one. If Ge Nie's performance satisfies Gai Nie, it is very likely that the next Mohist giant will be himself.

Thinking of the possibility that the Mo Sect, which has countless disciples, might be passed on to him, Ziying's heart suddenly felt a little overwhelmed.If there is such a force in his hands, whether it is to conquer the six countries or face the bloody massacre of the clan by Hu Hai in the future, he will have some confidence to protect himself.

Of course, this is something to say later, everything depends on whether you can meet Ge Nie's conditions.

Of course, considering from the heart, the Mohist group takes "righteousness" as the guide, regardless of self-interest, and takes "benefiting the world" as their own responsibility. It can be said that they are a group of selfless people who pursue the world as their lifelong pursuit.

Nowadays, when benevolence and morality are mentioned, many people’s first reaction is that this is a thought exclusive to Confucianism. Whenever it is mentioned, it is attributed to Confucianism, as if other academic schools do not talk about benevolence and morality. The requirements for benevolence and morality are only higher than those of Confucianism.

Confucian love is mainly aimed at relatives, father, filial piety, brothers and friends, younger brothers and brothers, and so on.The Mohist advocates that "universal love" extends the love for relatives to other strangers.In other aspects, it opposes unjust annexation wars, advocates meritocracy, advocates controlling one's own destiny through personal efforts, opposes luxury, and advocates thrift.The idea of ​​Mohism can be said to be the most progressive school of thought in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

It can be said that the Mohists are a group of people who gather together for lofty ideals, and under the leadership of Juzi, fight for the common people all their lives and die.

With a turbulent mind, I have infinite admiration for the pioneers of Momen.After kowtowing, Ziying said involuntarily: "Grandfathers and grandpas, I, Zhao Ziying, would like to uphold the will of all of you, assist the Ming Lord, and help the world, so that hundreds of years will be destroyed. If the world changes, I would like to hold three feet Longyuan, guarding for the common people. In this life, I swear to take the rise and fall of the world as my own responsibility, and love the common people. If you call yourself lonely in the south, you must appoint people on their own merits. Thrift is for self-cultivation, and frugality is for cultivating virtue. This is an oath, and everyone in heaven can see it.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ziying came back to his senses.I thought: "It's bad, this is not what I should say at my age. Not only did I make a grand plan, but I also said the most core views of the Mohist school, such as universal love, non-gong, valuing the virtuous, and thrift." These are all summed up by later generations of scholars with great difficulty. Just now, under the turmoil of the mind, they accidentally said it together with the help of their own oath. I am afraid that even Sima Shang and Gai Nie are the first to hear that a person can tell them A lifelong pursuit can be summed up in a few words.”

Seeing Gai Nie and Sima Shangshihua at the side, I thought it was true, if I can't tell Ziwu Yichou, don't let these two old guys get me to slice it and study it.

In this age, ghosts and gods are flourishing, and even the Mohist school, which has sprouted a simple modern science, still has ideas such as "wisdom of ghosts" and "will of heaven".

In "Han Feizi", there is even a story that makes modern people dumbfounded. A Yan Guoren's wife, Hong Xing, had an affair. When the wife's husband came home suddenly, in desperation, he broke the jar and smashed the "traitor". "Husband" simply walked out in front of her husband with her body swaggering like no one else.

But his wife and the servant who had already been bribed insisted: "We didn't see anyone, you must be dazzled." The husband who was blatantly wearing a green hat thought he had seen a ghost and exorcised it. The way to ward off evil spirits is also very creative, that is, to take a "**** bath" with **.It can be seen that people had a deep belief in ghosts and gods at that time.

Thinking of this, Ziying rolled her eyes and squatted on the ground.Pretend to be weak and said: "Grandpa, it seems that someone taught me a lot of awkward words in my ear just now, let me remember clearly when I get older, don't forget, I am suddenly very tired, Ziying went to bed first." After speaking, he pretended to lie down on the ground and fell asleep.

Sima Shang and Gai Nie, who were standing beside Shihua, never imagined that a two-year-old child would have such scheming. In their subconscious mind, the two-year-old child was still at the age of ignorance.

Ziying's oath, coupled with the explanation just now, was obviously misunderstood by them as a connection between heaven and man, and the magnates of all ages recognized Ziying's identity.

"Master Juzi, this..."

"Fortunately for the Mo Sect, Ziying is the person whom all the patriarchs in the past wished for in the spirit of the heavens, and the destiny belongs to them.

It can be slowly said that the ancestor has a spirit, and the next giant has been determined. When he completes his studies, he will follow the ancestor's will and lead the future of Momen. After a short pause, Gai Nie added: "For the time being, Ziying's identity is known by heaven and earth, you know me, and you must not let others know." "
