Chapter 62: The Roots of the Truth (5)
The Mo family can only use this method to punish Shengyu.
It's not that there is no other way, but he has his own set of theories, and the rewards and punishments for ink artists must conform to the whole set of theories he upholds.
Mozi's definition of sin is as follows: "Sin: Breaking the forbidden, but harming is not guilty." ”
When a ban is enacted, as long as the ban is not violated, then even if the harm is caused, it is not guilty.
If the order does not prohibit, it is permitted, and even if it is harmful, it is not punished.
The harm caused can only be punished according to the prohibition it violates, not according to the degree of harm, but the decree must be made according to the degree of harm.
Sheng Yu caused harm, violating the prohibition of not doing righteousness, so the punishment can only be punished in accordance with the order of not doing righteousness, that is, to let him no longer engage in politics.
Sheng Xuan directly tore his face, saying that the righteousness of the ink is a low-class thing in the world, and it has never been published.
Since it didn't appear, I didn't expect it.
All that can be done is to expel the Ink Hunter from the team, and then use this as a warning to fill these loopholes and enrich the ban.
However, before the ban is made, it is not possible to punish the sin at that time with a future ban.
Similarly, his praise of Shizi is also in line with Mozi's theoretical system.
"Reward: Report the merit of the report."
If you want to repay the merit, it is appropriate and light on the gold and righteousness, so there is really no way to repay the merit except praise.
Shengqiu called Shi "shoemaker Shi", which is also the reason why Mozi praised Shi like that.
In his view, "no one is young, noble, or low, and all are ministers of heaven."
Heaven has endowed people with equal rights and qualifications, and there is no high or low under the sky, and it is reasonable for everyone to be equal.
Therefore, "those who are farmers and industrialists will be lifted if they have the ability".
Don't look at the bloodline, don't look at the qualifications, don't look at the elderly, don't look at the background, only look at the ability, the sentence "shoemaker suitable" is an important reason for Mozi's discourse to criticize the contrast.
In fact, there is a saying that Shengqiu is not wrong. Just because God has given everyone equal rights and qualifications, Mozi's righteousness has been "inferior" in this era.
But in Shi's view, it is precisely this that is the most amazing.
Obviously, Mozi only needs to change the minister of the heavens to the heirs of the heavens, so that he can seamlessly connect with love and run all the way towards the evil path of the monotheistic religion.
But after Mozi demonstrated the theory that everyone is equal and is a minister of heaven, he used an extremely secular explanation on the issue of love: mutual benefit, people can get more benefits by loving and helping each other, so they should love each other. Not everyone is a child of heaven, so the theory of blood kinship at this time should naturally be loved.
In addition to interests, Mozi also uses dialectics to complete the internal logical cycle of love: loving everyone does not mean not loving himself, and he himself is also among everyone. Since he is in love, love is added to himself. To love others without distinction means that everyone loves themselves. Loving oneself can only get one love, loving others can get all the love of others plus loving oneself, as long as there are more than two people who love at the same time, it is profitable.
What is appropriate for the village community and for the righteousness of the wheat flour is not necessarily out of love for all.
But it is appropriate to use words to attack the victorious who has a bad reputation, but others cannot use the words of punishment to attack the popular one.
You can only observe its deeds, see its effects, and know its heart with its deeds.
Therefore, in Mozi's view, all these actions are precisely the expression of love for everyone.
Mozi believes that Shi is a person who loves others as himself, and deserves such praise.
Except for Sheng Xuan and others, the vast majority of ink artists felt that such praise was okay, and it was also a spur to themselves to the rest of the ink artists.
Only a person who was very close to Heshi had a trace of doubt.
The six fingers that followed Shi looked at Shi, pondering Mozi's praise just now, and recalling the story Shi had told.
Although he was a little nervous, after swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he asked in a suitable manner, "Giant, are you ...... Do you think that you are not able to use Brother Shi by praising him like this? ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed, Six Fingers is the youngest ink master, although he claims to be a self-proclaimed, but his previous performance has won everyone's recognition.
At this time, he suddenly asked such a strange sentence, and everyone thought that he was young and maybe he thought something wrong, but he just laughed and did not refute it.
Mozi smiled at this child who made him feel very good, and asked with a smile, "Why do you say that?" ”
Six Fingers has always listened to the story of the Mozi and has a lot of respect for Mozi, but when it comes to Shi, he still musters up the courage to speak.
"Giant, Brother Shi and I told a story. Say that the more you value someone, the easier it is to get your scolding. Brother Shi said, if I become an ink artist in the future, if someone scolds me and it is reasonable, then I must not be angry but feel that I am valued, otherwise why scold? ”
"Brother Shi said that he was unhappy when he was scolded by you all day long. You said, if you want to go to Taihang Mountain, a horse and a cow, which one will you choose to spur? Spurring a horse, not hating horses, but thinking that horses are faster than oxen. And for the oxen, it is useless to spur, it is better to put them there and feed them well, and wait until they are sacrificed as sacrifices...... You don't want to make a sacrifice to Shige, do you? ”
The timid voice, the hesitant and nervous expression, the desire to defend the heart of the person he respects, are mixed together in this child who is less than fifteen years old, complex and interesting.
The inkers, including Mozi, were amused by the words of the six fingers.
Only Shi, who didn't even care about the curse of victory before, was excited in his heart, trembling all over, and cold sweat was dripping on his back.
Just now he was still immersed in the excitement of Mozi praising himself, and this sentence was recorded on the bamboo slip, this is what he really wants, and it is not the same as Shengxuan's gift.
But the six fingers seem to be childlike words, but they give Shi a great warning.
This story is what he will give to Six Fingers, but now this story has been told by Six Fingers, which seems to be a child's words, but in fact, it makes Shi Shi sweat coldly.
I'm not dead yet! Only the dead are likely to be evaluated like this.
The sacrificial talk or nonsense, Mozi must have a back hand in doing things, and I am afraid that the joy I was just now is a little early.
He raised his eyes and quietly looked at Mozi, the expression on his face was a little strange, Mozi didn't pay attention, but came to Liuzhi's side with a smile and said, "Child, someone feeds the horse with beans." The horse eats very fat, so he thinks that animals like to eat beans. One day, someone gave him a tiger, and he also fed the tiger with beans, but the tiger did not eat it. Then let me ask you, is it wrong that horses like to eat beans? Is it wrong that tigers don't like to eat beans? ”
Six Fingers shook his head and said, "That's right. ”
Mozi nodded and said, "That's it." Some people need to spur and scold, this is their bean. Some people need praise and reward, this is their meat. Feeding horses meat, that's not right. But you can feed the tiger with beans, is it right? They are all foods, but they are divided into beans and meat because of tigers and horses. ”
Six Fingers seemed to understand, and felt that since the giant didn't want to make a proper sacrifice, there was no need to worry.
After bowing, he obediently retreated behind Shi and continued to arrange the bamboo slips.
After Mozi finished speaking, he glanced at Shi again, and suddenly said to the group of ink scholars: "Why do people only have a word when they die?" ”
"Because a dead man cannot change what he did in life." It can't be changed, that's why it's fixed. ”
Mozi asked again: "Then does it mean that it is not because of death, but because it cannot be changed?" Death can not change, but death is only a small cause that does not change, not a big cause, is this the truth? ”
The fowl nodded, and so did the inkers who approached.
Mozi suddenly faced Shi and asked, "Shi, since you have become a Mo Master, can your righteous heart remain the same?" ”
Shi barely hesitated or paused, and used a sentence that did not exist at this time.
"I also have a good heart, although I have not regretted it after nine deaths! The good of the disciple's heart is to do righteousness, so the heart of righteousness will not regret nine deaths! ”
Mozi laughed and said, "I once said that if the Son of Heaven is wrong, he must be punished. You said that you want my ink artist to cast a sword to reward and punish the world, but you are not the Son of Heaven, and you can't use this sword to reward and punish the world, so you can use a three-foot bronze sword. This is the order, and it is also the alliance. ”
After that, Mozi didn't look at it appropriately, and called out a few names in a long voice.
Every time one person was called, one person stepped forward.
"Poultry slippery!"
"Yes!"
"Gongzaoye!"
"Yes!"
"Meng Sheng!"
"Yes!"
"Luo Huali, Gao He, County Zishuo, Cao Rang, Wei Xili ......"
shouted the names of more than a dozen people in a row, and each name surprised Shixin.
In addition to those familiar ones, the latter few people were either evil boys who were originally rampant in the countryside, or "warriors" who killed people at every turn, or assassins who had killed nobles and changed their names and surnames and hid among the ink people......
These more than ten people stood in front of Mozi, and Mozi still smiled and said: "The order is issued by the giant, and if you don't break the order, you are not guilty, and I will make an order today." ”
"If he does not do righteousness, he will do harm to the world, more than ordinary people. The Son of Heaven is guilty, but he still needs to be punished, what is the right situation? From today on, if Shi is still in the Mo family, if there is something against the general righteousness, the thirteen of you will definitely carry a three-foot sword to kill him! ”
Poultry slippery and gongzao metallurgy were very admirable, but when they heard Mozi say this, they did not hesitate at all.
"Honorable Giant Order! The disciple swore that if this is the case, even if he hides in the Luoyi Royal City, even if there is a guard by a soldier, even if the disciple dies, he will be killed! ”
Shi swallowed his saliva and looked at the thirteen people who received the order, which one of them was not a famous person.
A person like Gongzaoye has the strength to kill dozens of armor soldiers in one blow.
Besides, the bird slip is still the next giant who is basically the king, and since the bird slippery received the order, it means that all the ink masters in the future have received this order.
The Tianzhi, Mr. Sai and Tang Han that he said, Mozi didn't care, but he cared very much, and he also understood how much power was contained in them.
That's why I will hold myself high with that hymn, and then use the three-foot sword of these people to oversee.
That praise is a net woven by Mozi in the name of knowing people in his life, a net that spurs Shi Shi to move forward, and a net that makes Shi Shi's betrayal increase countless psychological costs.
Those who are praised all day long, those praises are also a kind of bondage, forcing them to move forward and not retreat.
The three-foot sword is Mozi's reaction after listening to the sword that suitably said to reward and punish the world, and whether he believed that the heavens punished the Son of Heaven so he wanted the ink man to cast the sword of rewarding and punishing the world, Mozi cast thirteen three-foot swords according to what he said.
The punishment is suitable, you don't need a sword in the world, you only need a three-foot sword.
Those Tianzhi, Cutting Circles, Straw Silk, Lishu, World Sword, Paradise, and Four Hundred Hills are all ink...... All these statements made Mozi have to be on guard, and he had to be so cautious.
It's not unbelief, it's just that it increases the cost of betrayal so that it doesn't betray. This is the function of the law, so that the world will no longer need the law.
Mozi was still reasonable after all, and after the oath of more than ten people, Mozi asked: "If you don't want to, you can leave Mozi like a victory." If you leave the Ink Warriors, the order of the giant will not be able to control you, and unless you do something that causes chaos in the world, your life will not be in danger. But if you really want to do what is right in the world and stay among the Mo, you must carry out such a law. Do you think about it, is it leaving? Or stay? ”
When everyone thought that Shi would say something amazing like what his heart is good and he has not regretted his death, he didn't want Shi to directly answer whether to leave or stay, but asked: "Sir, there are two things I haven't figured out, so I can't decide yet." ”
"First, righteousness always has a purpose, what should the world look like in our hearts to do righteousness and benefit the world? That's what I need to know. ”
"Some Shangqiu people want to go to Chu, but they go north, they will be wrong. I know that. Now the gentleman is doing righteousness, just as the gentleman wants to go to Chu, but instead of telling the driver that he wants to go to Chu, he sits on the left side of the car and says, "Go forward, go around that tree, go over that river, turn around that mountain......
"Every word of the gentleman is right, it is righteousness, but just like those who doubt and do not distinguish between righteousness, they don't know where they will go."
Therefore, the Mo Scholar must have a charter, and this charter is to tell each Ink Practitioner what the world should be like after doing righteousness. Knowing this, then you can know whether you are doing righteousness or not. There will be no divergence from the south, so that we can truly share the same meaning. ”
"When you know the purpose, you know if it's the right thing to do. Only when you know to go to Chu can you know that it is wrong to go north. ”
Mozi did not answer, nor did he teach, nor did he scold or be disappointed.
Instead, he smiled and asked, "Second?" ”
