warring states careerist

Chapter 118
When Mozi said this, Shi was extremely shocked.

Maybe others can't hear it, but Keshi can hear it.

Just like the story of Hu Feizi and Qu Jiangzi a few days ago, Mozi said this to tell Shi: Mozi will eventually be a gentleman like Cao Mo.

Regardless of whether the righteousness that the Mohist thinks is really the will of heaven, at least Mozi said to the widow Fei and the tens of thousands of people present: Mohist will fight against the existing rules of this world in the future!Because this rule is wrong, Mohist must establish a new rule.

He might die, but like Cao Mo who hijacked Duke Huan of Qi with a dagger, he would never regret it, even if there were tens of thousands of Qi soldiers with thousands of bows and arrows behind him, he would never look back.

I don't know whether it's excitement or fear, and my fingers tremble a little.

Picking up the piece of paper that had already been discussed with the high-level Mohists, he walked to the stage.

He didn't read it immediately, but glanced at Mozi quietly, unable to salute because he was on the stage, but kept his eyes on the old man for a long time, and didn't know if the seventy old man could see it or not. Feel the respect in your own eyes.

After a long time, Shi restrained his emotions and said loudly: "Through the confession of the three people, these Wu Zhu, who are the priests of Zhu Rong, know very well that they cannot communicate with ghosts and gods, and they are just taking the opportunity to make money."

"In 11 years, a total of [-] innocent girls were killed under the pretext of sacrifice. Killing innocent people to death is the will of heaven and the greatest rule in the world."

"This matter is before the law of all peoples, so the law cannot convict. But justice and the will of heaven must be upheld after all, and Mohist will be the one who upholds justice, and hereby declares all the hatred, resentment, revenge, and non-discussion of this matter, It will be borne by all Mohists."

"After discussion among all the Mohists in Peipei and the approval of the giants, it was decided to impose lightning punishment on Zhu Huaiqi, Zhu Huaishen, and Xu Jing, in order to show the will of heaven, to uphold righteousness, and to benefit the world."

"Divide the 12 people including Duishu, Rou, Xiao, Si, etc. by hanging."

"The rest of the people didn't directly participate. Knowing or not knowing doesn't hurt their hearts, but they also used the money they collected in the past 11 years, and the money didn't belong to them, but to the people of Peiyi."

"A total of about 11 yuan has been collected in copper for 14 years, all of which will be compensated by the widows to enrich the treasury and purchase cattle, horses, seeds, and agricultural tools."

"If it is not enough, the widow will do hard labor until it is paid off. The private land will be converted, but the private house will not be moved. The rest of the jade, gold, silver, and tin will be converted into money."

Three witches who should have been hanged were removed here, because keeping them would still be useful in the future.

The appropriate voice is very hoarse, and the voice is not too loud.

Every time a name was read, some of the bound Wu Zhu disciples behind would tremble and burst into tears, but their mouths were blocked.

Ordinarily, when they were dying, it might be interesting to hear these people cry a few words or say something about revenge, ghosts and gods, but now I am not in the mood.

After reading a name, two Mohists will pull a person out.

Hanging, this is a punishment that has existed since ancient times.

There are crueler punishments than this, such as car splitting, such as beheading in half, but they didn't read it, but read a thunder punishment that no one knew about.

Everyone knew that this thunder punishment must be a crueler punishment than hanging, but they didn't know what it looked like, so they were inevitably curious.

Mo Zhe knows that this thunder punishment may not be cruel, but it can deter those who are hostile to Mo Zhe. This is an unprecedented unknown punishment.

Gong Zaoye led Mo Zhe to tie the three men to the pillars that had been erected, and Mo Chengzi took the equipment that Mo Zhe used to dig tunnels for defending the city, dug a hole and erected the gallows.

The three people who were about to be tortured by thunder shouted cloth balls with wild chrysanthemum juice in their mouths, their tongues were numb and they were drooling continuously, but they couldn't spit out the cloth balls.

Several inkmen carefully opened a wooden box from the carriage, and took out three round tubes from the lime used to prevent moisture.

Everyone was curious to see what the instrument of torture was. To them, it seemed unattractive. It was just a round thing like a bamboo tube. There was a long line behind it, which looked like a river in spring. The tadpoles of toads swimming in the lake, or the snakes with four legs and long tails that are common in the big lake to the west of Peiyi, are not scary.

Bamboo tubes, clay, reinforced hard pottery, a catty and a half of carefully ground gunpowder, and three-foot-long lead wires. This is the thunder punishment to be shown to everyone, and it is also a weapon used to deter those who hate Mohists.

It's getting late, and he has to show up, even if he doesn't show up today, he will show up when the Chu people surround Shangqiu in a year and a half.

A catty and a half of gunpowder with a reasonable ratio is enough to kill a person, I am sure, and the movement will be very loud.

The three woods that bound Wuzhu were far apart and high enough to be seen by everyone present.

The big firecrackers in bamboo tubes, clay and hard pottery were tied to the bodies of the three Wu Zhu by the expressionless Mo Zhe, and they retreated far away.

Gong Zaoye, the fastest runner who stretched out his hand, was holding a torch, and his heart was pounding.

He had seen a demonstration of this kind of weapon that could be used to defend the city in Pei Ze, and he knew that this thing was loud and powerful, and this time it contained a whole catty and a half of gunpowder, which was much more than last time .

Shi looked at the sky and said with a smile, "Let's execute the sentence."

After saying that, he backed away, Gongzaoye lit the fuse, and also backed away.

After the sizzling sound of the fuse burning, the black fuse ash stretched and fell like a snake that shed its skin.

The people in the audience watched this scene in amazement, and then there was a loud noise that they would never forget, and they were shocked after the fire snake had shed all its skin!

They may have heard similar sounds many years later, and some movements were even louder than this, but they still couldn't forget this scene.

That's Ray.

That is the thunder before the dark clouds.

It was thunder with white clouds after there were no dark clouds and thunder.

The loud noise that shook the sky and the earth shook the ears of the onlookers. Many people sat down on the ground, their hearts were pounding, and they felt that there was an unbearable feeling in their heads that seemed to be rubbing against copper and iron. squeak.

This loud noise no longer needs to be transmitted by those who are the microphones, even the people at the back can hear it.

The only ones who could keep their expressions unchanged were those Mohists who had heard this loud noise several times, but they couldn't help muttering that the sound this time was much louder than the last time.

The huge explosive force ended the lives of those people in an instant, and the death was not painful, but this kind of shock that seemed to lead to the death of the thunder made those Mohists want them to panic more than those car cracks that could have imagined the scene flustered.

Three bundles of gunpowder and firecrackers were tied to people's heads, and Shi didn't even bother to check whether those people were dead or not.

I don't know if it was because the buzzing sound in my ears was too loud after the explosion, or because the loud noise like thunder shocked everyone present. The whole venue was quiet without the slightest sound.

The bitter taste of gunpowder smoke was blown to the tip of everyone's nose by the golden wind, and the sulfur mixed in it made them smell the fire of Shishan Zhurong again.

Perhaps in other places and other myths, it is the smell of hell.

But there is no hell here, only the black stone that once burned, so this is the smell of Zhurong, people think so, then this is it.

The people in the audience once again looked at the Mozhe on the stage with a horrified look, but when the gunpowder smoke cleared and looked at the indifferent appearance of those Mozhe, after a short horrified silence, they even gave out appalling cheers .

They weren't lunatics or perverts, and they weren't so excited to cheer at the sight of an uninteresting execution.

What they cheered was their own hope, the paradise the Mohists spoke of, their uneasy future, and the Twelve Grass and Silk Law that they had just recognized.

Mo Zhe gave them the hope of a happy life, and the sound of thunder is Mo Zhe telling them that Mo Zhe has the ability to protect their hope from being shattered. Anyone who wants to kill the hope of benefiting the world will end up like this in the end.

They thought, this is a proof that Mohists can communicate with ghosts and gods, otherwise, who can attract the power of thunder?Since this is possible, wouldn't the Mohist use such power to deal with those who kill the world's interests in the future?
The Mohist told them about the Promised Land, saying that when one day the Kyushus are unified, there will be no strife, and only those greedy barbarians will be left. At that time, the corvee can still be treated lightly, because a new weapon can ensure that there is no need to recruit too many people.

They thought, even if this is not the power of ghosts and gods, it is also the natural power of heaven and earth. Mohists can control such power and use it on weapons. Can those horse chariots withstand such loud noises and explosions?

The future that the Mohist talked about was too beautiful, and things that were too beautiful would always make people uneasy, even the newly compiled Twelve Grass and Silk Law made them uneasy, because it said too much about private property and land , while they do not appear to be at this time.

The Mohists stationed in the village also talked about the best way to prevent floods and droughts, which is to dig canals, but that requires too much labor.

Bronze tools are not even enough, and the iron of evil gold mentioned by the Mohist has not yet appeared in Peiyi. It is not that the people do not know the benefits of digging canals for irrigation. It is too tiring to rely on the tools at this time to dig canals too difficult.

They don't know that this thing may be used on the Bashu Mountain Road thousands of miles away, but it is not applicable here.

But they have heard the story of Dayu's water control who changed his appearance, and this changed water control story that appeared and circulated after the sound of Pei Ze that day is as follows:
When Dayu was controlling the water, he dug into Mount Tu, but the rocks blocked the river, so it was very difficult to dig.When Tu Shan's girl saw Dayu, she fell in love with him, but Dayu said that the water would not be cured and he would not marry, so Tu Shan's girl was heartbroken.

In the clan, there is a great witch named Qi who has the will to reach the sky, who has a crush on Nvjiao.

Seeing that Nvjiao was getting thinner and thinner, he secretly helped Tu Shannvjiao and told him so.

At that night, Nujiao of Tushan went to find Dayu, and said that the Tushan family had a great shaman who was known as the enlightener who knew the will of heaven, and could unblock the stones, so she asked Dayu if he could get married if he split these blocked stones.

Tu Shannvjiao is charming and beautiful, and Yu is also tempted, so he agrees.Tushan Nujiao didn't know what the big witch who knew the will of heaven would do, but she trusted her.

That night, there was a loud noise, like the sky falling. Dayu woke up to look, but saw that the stone was broken, as if it had been smashed open.

In addition to being excited, he and Tu Shannvjiao sat on the ground that night, but the great witch who knew the will of heaven never appeared again.

Some people say that the great witch loves the girl, but after seeing Dayu, she knew that she couldn't do it, and saw that the girl's heart was getting thinner and thinner, and then she left sadly.

Or some people say that in the future, Tushan Nujiao could not miss Dayu of her family, and she sang "Waiting for people Xiyi" to the moon. The feeling of tossing and turning was naturally to Dayu, but I am afraid that she was also somewhat grateful to the one who passed away sadly. The big witch in the clan asks for the deep meaning of goodbye and thanks.

Some people say that Dayu heard what Tushan Nujiao said, and praised the man who had the will of heaven, so he named his son Qi to express his condolences and reward him for his contribution to the creation of Tushan.

This story is very interesting, and the spread of the scriptures spread quickly. After all, it involves love triangles, giving, not asking for rewards, sadness, naming commemorations, etc., which are in line with popular elements. Compared with those thin legends Much more interesting.

Everyone thought a lot before, or the great witch who knows the will of heaven should see Nujiao and Yu Mutian reunited on the ground, and left sadly without a trace.

Looking at it today, many people think that the great witch who knows the will of heaven and the name of Qi also used such a method, but he was killed by the bomb before he could leave... After all, the thunder and fire that will blow up Tushan is more powerful than what he saw today. It is possible to be ten thousand times bigger.

Thinking about the method of splitting mountains and cracking rocks is even more exciting. Splitting mountains and cracking rocks is a method that only ghosts and gods can have!This is consistent with the myth. Does anyone who knows Tianzhi can split mountains and rocks?
If that person knows what the Mohists call the will of heaven, how is it different from ghosts and gods?

Quite a few people asked in trembling voices with a pious and spontaneous respect: "Mohists... can they really communicate with ghosts and gods directly? Can they use the power of ghosts and gods?"

Standing in the dissipated white smoke, knowing that the people were asking him, he laughed and said, "An Mohist can verify who can communicate with ghosts and gods. Anyone who is not Mohist can verify is false!"

He laughed.

Because he disdains being a god, but wants to make him more awesome than being a god—the Mohists must master the verification of those so-called god-like people at that time, and those who cannot be verified are all fake.

Want to be a person who communicates with ghosts and gods?Those who came to Mohism first took the exam and passed the certificate to be qualified. Whoever can pass it alive will be allowed to receive the certificate.

No god shall exist without the consent of the Mohist!
