Road to science and technology

Chapter 225 Warring States Period

Obviously, the place where Zhuang Zhou is now is Yue Yuanzhou's hall. This place has been transformed into a hall, and the size is almost as big as the hall in the City of Angels. Outside the hall is a huge park.

It is actually not accurate to say that it is a park, because the buildings here are functional buildings, including various buildings for scientific research, education, military, literature, etc. For example, what Zhuangzi saw before was a materials technology research institute.

Rather than saying it is a park, it is more impressive to say that it is a comprehensive university, but it is larger and covers a wider area. If I insist on saying so, it is probably the size of a county town. This is actually very small, and is simply insignificant compared to the entire planet that is larger than the Earth, so it does not participate in the transformation of the planet here.

Ah Zhui did not design it into a more exaggerated style like a floating city, but a simple garden city with beautiful mountains and clear waters.

Although there are currently no people in this county-sized central area, it is part of the plan, and the four-season simulated day and night system above it is already functioning normally.

The reason why Zhuangzi appears here begins with Yue Yuanzhou's shuttle to this world. At that time, Yue Yuanzhou came to integrate into this universe. After completing a routine self-examination, he began to observe the universe, and then discovered that he actually appeared on Vega this time. nearby.

This reminded him that he met Ah Zhui here more than two thousand years ago, so he simply took the livable planet Vega with him, and of course the same was true for the Proxima Centauri home planet. This is not all. If you look at it from space, you will find that there are several satellites surrounding the parent star of Shenzhou and Proxima Centauri, which are located in different orbits in the habitable zone. These satellites are all warships slightly smaller than the moon. Of the eleven warships, six are on Shenzhou and the rest are surrounding the Proxima Centauri civilization mother planet.

After that, Yue Yuanzhou sent several detectors with large space bridges to the solar system to find out. Since detector-level spacecraft did not have the ability to leapfrog between stars, they could only travel at warp speed, 25 light years away. That’s it, these detectors arrived in more than a month.

Yue Yuanzhou was planning to use this time to reorganize the civilization, but when the detector sent back information through quantum entanglement, he changed his mind. Of course, it’s not that I’ve changed my mind and not rectified things, but that I’ve changed the way of rectifying things.

This was a decision he made after being stunned for a long time when he saw the condition of the earth, because he saw a planet with extremely high vegetation coverage and no satellites in synchronous orbit. If the landforms were not similar, he would have thought it was not the earth. When the detector probed deeply, he found that the population in China was sparse and basically concentrated in the Central Plains.

In the following time, Yue Yuanzhou discovered the stage that China was in at that time from the information successively transmitted from the detector, the Warring States Period! Because the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei and Han have already appeared on the land of China, the existence of these three kingdoms means that it must be the Warring States Period. After all, the division of the three families into Jin is the most obvious sign that distinguishes the Spring and Autumn Period from the Warring States Period.

At that time, the detector happened to see an old man who was about to lose his life. This haggard old man was about to run out of oil. However, from the words of several people next to him who were enduring grief, Yue Yuanzhou realized that at this time, Yue Yuanzhou Of course, he already understands the language of many people of this era, so he knows that what these people call should be teacher or my master, master, etc., and he should be an outstanding person.

So he ordered the detector to release a large space bridge in the clouds, then turned into a robot and turned on the optics, then directly picked up the old man from the hospital bed and flew into the sky, and then passed through the large space bridge to reach the Shenzhou planet.

All the students of this dying man thought that their teacher had become a saint. Even today, sixty-five years later, the legend of this old man becoming a saint is still circulating in the land of China.

Yue Yuanzhou, who thought this person should be a big shot, discovered after rescuing him that the dying person turned out to be the famous Mo Zhai.

Mo Zhai is Mozi, the founder of the Mohist school.

Mozi, who was suddenly pulled back from the edge of death, was very confused at first. At first, he thought he was so dead that he was like a ghost. However, Mozi, who lived for almost ninety years, actually understood that the point of what he said about the will of heaven and the clearing of ghosts is actually the will of heaven, and the clearing of ghosts is just a helpless move.

But at this time, Mo Zhai couldn't help but not believe it, and what he didn't expect was that the young man who met him, whom he thought was a ghost, actually wanted him to try to govern a country. At this time, Mo Zi thought that he had really died and arrived in the kingdom of ghosts and gods. Moreover, in the kingdom of ghosts and gods, he still had the opportunity to apply his teachings. So with this mentality, Mo Zi began his extremely exciting second adventure. Life.

At that time, Yue Yuanzhou also had the attitude of trying it out, so he separated a small area in one of the dungeons and asked Mo Zhai to try out his Mohist theory.

Mozi went there with full confidence, but Yue Yuanzhou did not tell him anything at that time, because the divided area only had a population of about four to five million, the size of a medium-sized city. So Yue Yuanzhou directly gave him the title of mayor and began to observe.

And this observation lasted for decades, from Mozi's surprise, being overwhelmed by not understanding anything new, to slowly understanding and adapting, and finally starting to use his theories to govern. The initial result was obvious: Mo Zhai's Mohist theory, which was called the most prominent theory at that time under the productivity of the Warring States Period, would not work here.

After experiencing failure, Mo Zhai naturally became more and more courageous, so the next step was to reflect and summarize, and then try again based on reality. This process lasted for decades, and finally it started to show results, so the very patient Yue Yuanzhou decided to get some more people.

He was now also curious about what it would be like to have hundreds of schools of thought gather together as the true source of thought for Chinese civilization, so Zhuangzi came.

Zhuang Zhou, who was still a little confused, looked around the red carpet. It was a very empty and large hall with not even a pillar in the middle. There were strange chairs randomly placed beside it, and some plants he didn't recognize were planted outside. .

Zhuangzi looked away. He didn't think about why such a big house didn't collapse without pillars, because now he seemed to know where it was.

So he picked up his straw sandals and continued walking along the red carpet. At the end of the red carpet, he raised his hands and bowed casually, asking, "Why is this?"

"sit!"

Yue Yuanzhou, who was sitting upright in his seat, did not directly answer Zhuangzi's words, but said this in the same language as Zhuangzi.

Hey. This person is very unreasonable. When Zhuang Zhou heard this, he felt that the young man in front of him was very rude. Even the state of Qin knew that it was basic etiquette to bow to guests. Although he didn't care much, he actually asked his guest to sit directly on the ground after hearing this.

Zhuang Zhou thought so and looked at the ground. The red carpet was very clean. And when he saw it, he saw a scene that shocked him. A strange thing flew towards him.

"Ouch!"

Zhuang Zhou, who thought he was going to be hit by something, was startled and almost drew his sword. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and discovered that this thing seemed to be similar to the thing the man was sitting on.

Huh. It seems like a strange kind of cushion. He found it strange because in this period, the seats were basically covered with cotton cloth, and then one could sit on it while kneeling.

Of course, the sitting posture of kneeling began to appear in the Spring and Autumn Period. Now is the Warring States Period, and of course kneeling is still the main method. The Warring States here is a time of great strife in the true sense, not a fight at the entrance of a village on an island.

Zhuang Zhouke followed the host and sat down on the sofa that flew over. This sitting brought his thoughts back from the flying seat. It was too soft and he couldn't help but jump a little.

This was very new to him, and this dream was so strange. It was so clear, completely different from the hazy feeling before. Maybe this is not a dream, but where is it? Does such a place exist between heaven and earth? Are there flying chairs? Do the ghosts and gods mentioned by the Mohists really exist?
