By the time he arrived in Pei, Mozi had already arrived for six days.

This time, the inkers who went to Peidi did not come out of the nest. In addition to the things that have been decided before, there are still some ink masters who have to stay in Shangqiu to deal with the affairs of the Craftsmen's Guild.

Including these people brought by Gongzao Metallurgical in advance, there are only one hundred and fifty people.

Peicheng is a small city, not big, the circumference is only six or seven miles, and the longest city wall is only two miles.

It is built on the mountain, in the south of the micro mountain. Weishan is just a mound, and there are no stones on the mountain. As a small city, Pei can't have too long walls, and each has its own system.

Shi hadn't entered the city gate yet, and the first step ahead of Mozi was already waiting on that road.

Seeing the carriages from a distance, he hurriedly ran over to count them and asked, "Are you okay on the road?" ”

"It's fine. Although there are not many people, no one dares to do it. What about the giants? ”

"Handouts outside the city. The giant said you were coming. Gongzaoye found out something here, and this place is not outside Shangqiu. ”

Shi Shi looked at the small city, handed a few pieces of bamboo slips in his hand with the number recorded to the maker Qisui and said, "You bring someone over first, and I will go in a moment." ”

Don't make a new year, and go to the place where Mozi lectures first.

Before he could get closer, he saw several sword-wielding inkmen patrolling there. When you see the suitability, you nod your head and call it suitable.

When he got closer, he found that more than thirty ink artists were kneeling on the ground, and Luo Qianli maintained a posture of asking, and the expression on his face seemed to have been convinced.

When he got closer, he heard Mozi say, "...... Although it is a Chinese custom, it is still the same. For if he kills his father and rewards his son, why should he eat his son and reward his father? If you don't use benevolence and righteousness, why don't you eat your son? Later, Lu Yang Wenjun asked me again......"

I don't know if other princes also have the habit of calling China, but Mozi did call Huaxia directly China, and it was the original meaning without changing a word, not only the dual identity of geographical concept but also cultural concept.

As soon as he heard Mozi talk about this, he felt a little emotion in his heart, a character like Mozi has traveled extensively, and his storytelling is different from that of him, the son of a shoemaker.

He, the son of a shoemaker, told stories only the mundane little things. When Mozi opened his mouth, it was generally "when Luyang Wenjun saw me, when Lu Hou begged me, when the King of Chu talked to me, and when Qi Hou asked me about political affairs......"

sighed for a while, and listened to the handouts of Mozi and these ink artists on the side, and roughly understood the cause and effect.

At that time, Luyang Wenjun once said that in the southwest of Chu, there is a barbarian country, called Qiao.

The people of the bridge country have a habit of eating the first child they give birth to, and they call it Yidi. Whoever makes the first child delicious will give it to the king, and the king will be rewarded. This may have been said casually by Lu Yang Wenjun and Mozi when they were talking nonsense, so they asked Mozi if this matter was ridiculous.

Mozi replied, "Isn't that the same way Chinese customs?" Isn't the father, who is forcibly called by the king to fight an unrighteous war, and who dies in exchange for the riches of his son, give the father to the king to eat and the son to receive the reward? There are also nobles who conscripted laborers to build palaces, and some often starved to death, isn't this cannibalism? Those Yidi cannibals at least give rewards, but they don't even have rewards for building palaces and cannibalism.

Therefore, it is necessary to change these unrighteous practices, so that there are no more unjust wars in China, and the nobility no longer regularly recruits farmers for their own personal gain...... Once you've done that, taunt those Yidi.

He was a man who was good at finding common ground, otherwise he would not have been able to summarize the geometric definition of the circle, and he would not have been able to find the eight foundations of optics by induction.

When I first came, I don't know why Mozi talked about it. After listening to it for a while, I realized that Mozi was using this incident to prepare for the future.

It is probably that there are too many unrighteous customs in the world, and it is necessary to distinguish them carefully, and it is not necessarily in line with the righteousness that has always existed.

Therefore, since Luo Qianli feels unrighteous about the sacrifice and wealth here, he must also recognize the rest of the unrighteous things in the world, be good at distinguishing, and oppose all of them in the future, even if it is some deep-rooted customs.

In the end, it seemed that he praised Luo Qianli a few more words, and only said that he should keep this mind of seeing injustice and anger, and distinguish more injustice in the future, and there will always be an endless time when the swordsmanship is used.

Then he talks about something that seems to be taken for granted and passed down for a long time, but in fact it is also unrighteous and ridiculous, and needs to be changed in the future.

Mozi often commented on the governance of various countries, and in front of the kings of various countries, he was prone to accusations, and the kings of all countries were helpless.

It sounds like Mozi has a lot of meaning to change customs and change the three views of the world. Turning his mind and thinking, isn't that what the so-called synonymous is? Isn't it true that instilling what is good and what is wrong has always been done in ancient and modern times? It's just that under the distinction between time, space and geography, right and wrong are different.

After a while, after Mozi finished speaking, he also saw Shi Zai listening there, so he beckoned to Shi and said, "You came just in time." You also heard these things just now, Mr. Nasai and Tang Han know a lot of things, I don't know if you have ever heard of Qiaoyi cannibalism? What do you think of it? ”

After thinking for a while, he said: "Mr. Tang Han's meaning is similar to the righteousness of the giant. Mr. Sai rarely talks about righteousness, only about the origin, and he has a few words that mention the cannibalism of the bridge. ”

Mozi was also interested when he heard Shi talk about the origin of things, he was a person who likes to explore the origin of things, and asked, "What do you say?" ”

"The giant also knows that Mr. Sai has the theory of the Nine Paradises. I also know that many Yidi live in groups, and I know that my father does not know my mother. That bridge, according to Mr. Sai's division, should be at the end of the double paradise. Originally, women gathered men to hunt and lived in groups to interbreed, and the children only knew their fathers but not their mothers. ”

After comprehending Tianzhi and learning slash-and-burn farming, the man can support his family, and naturally hopes that the blood will be passed on. But the custom of group marriage is still there, so he killed the first son, because he didn't know if the first son was his bloodline. The so-called Yi brother, what is suitable is actually the continuation of the bloodline of the cultivator. ”

"If we break the customs, we must not only have the ritual of the holy king, but also innovate the method of cultivation and labor. The former is light, and if there is no light, there is no shadow, and the angle of light and shade may also change the appearance of the shadow; The latter is a thing, there is no thing and there is no shadow, and what kind of thing there is, there will always be what kind of shadow. ”

He briefly said some similar things, including issues such as the Ida military system, and everyone nodded their heads, feeling that it was very reasonable.

Mozi pondered for a moment and praised: "That's true, that's what you said, if you want to reach this land of happiness, you must have iron, silk of plants and trees, clay prints and eight official scripts?" These are things, and only with these things can we cast a picture that is in harmony with things? Otherwise, it can't last long only by relying on the conversion of light and light? ”

Shi nodded, Mozi stopped talking, and was still pondering the questions Shi just said, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense, and he was a little surprised in his heart.

I have heard so many things, and I have always believed that everything has an origin, but I never thought that these things that seem to be just customs actually contain these truths that are in line with the origin of things.

Thinking of applying a similar method to evaluate the military system of Ida Division, my heart is even more eager to see with my own eyes what the world will look like after those ironware, writing, straw silk and other things are popularized.

Seeing that Mozi was still thinking, he took the opportunity to instill some similar truths to those Mozi, all of which were simple truths and were only used for enlightenment.

He said a lot, and when everyone was fascinated by what they were listening to, Mozi looked at the sky, asked them to disperse first, and told them to prepare dinner.

He also said that more than 20 people who were suitable for him also came, so after dinner, the commanders of the various Mo Wu gathered together to listen to Gongzaoye talk about the affairs of Xia Peidi and discuss countermeasures.

The ink man's trip, even if he didn't come out of the nest, made a long-term plan, carrying bottles and cans. He asked people to buy corn and bury it in the field for cooking.

After the meal, more than 30 Mowu Wu chiefs gathered together and formed a semicircle.

Mozi sat in front of everyone in the center, on the left were the Seven Enlightenments of the Seven Enlightenments of the Immortals, such as Yu Huali, Ji Chengzi, and Gongzaoye, and on the right were the people of the appropriate secretary and responsible for the records, as well as those who were not the leaders and subordinates of the Seven Enlightenments.

Gongzaoye first talked about the affairs of Peidi, and then talked about the atmosphere of sacrificing and collecting money here, which is the reason why Mozi and Luo Qianli and others gave lectures in the afternoon.

According to Gongzaoye, on the fifth day of May this year, a big sacrifice will be held outside Peidi. Not only to collect wealth and sacrifice, but also to sacrifice living people.

At this time, it is normal to sacrifice a living person, or use a person to be buried or something. The customs on the land of the Central Plains gradually changed, but even the Qin State, one of the Seven Heroes, changed the custom of human martyrdom and sacrifice until the prince who was exiled in Wei succeeded in seizing the throne.

"Historical Records" once contained: In the first year of dedication, Fang stopped from death. The Qin State is still like this, in this kind of hometown of the original Xia Shang Earl's Kingdom, it is normal for the fact that there is a living sacrifice or something like that.

According to the investigation of Gongzaoye, these sacrificial witch blessings were originally the witch blessings of various ancient Xia and Shang countries, and there are some means of sacrificial divination, which seem to be extremely high-level, as if they do have the art of reaching heaven and earth.

After the country was destroyed, the original monarch's family either went into exile or was brought back by the big country to raise them, and these people who stayed here used these ancient customs to collect wealth and win people's hearts.

At this time, witches, historians, and doctors had just separated, but in these ancient places, they were three families.

Shi thinks that these people may have also used their own means in the village community, and at the beginning they mastered some methods of curing diseases, and at the same time, they were not at the level of their own sacrifices, and these people are professional, and it is very possible to win people's hearts and make people believe.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile in my heart, and said that this was an opponent.

After thinking about it, I felt that this was simply bumped into my own hands, it was really Lu Ban who made a big axe in front of the door, and compared with a person who has watched for ten years and approached science, he engaged in feudal superstition, isn't this a death?

If you go against the grain, get close to science, and engage in feudal superstition, who in the world can match at this time?

However, it is also clear that the root of the problem is not the use of means to break superstition, but the interests between these local clans and the old aristocracy.

The right to sacrifice is tantamount to completely uprooting the ruling foundation of these old nobles. In addition, moving people with money is like killing their parents, and it is easy to be incited to oppose the Mo.

The ink artist has no foundation here, and it is easy to cause the anger of the world to fight to death, so he can only play the side ball.

The so-called pulling a hair and moving the whole body is not as simple as doing it in the village community.

To deal with such a thing, it is necessary to take a two-pronged approach, a pair of materialist agricultural iron fists to smash over, and then kick out with the legs of the science god, which will definitely be able to cure both the symptoms and the root causes.

It's a pity that he has the ability to popularize science, and he should basically be able to understand any feudal superstitious means that the other party's witch Zhu can use at this time. At this time, this trick may not be as good as his use of honey to lure ants.

But that pair of Shunong iron fists, the ink master has not yet practiced, and at this time it is not even a slap, at most it is a little thumb.

Don't break your bones and tendons if they don't hurt people......

Half of the ink people listened with angry eyes, and they were exactly what Luo Qianli looked like at the beginning, and when they heard that they were going to burn the living for sacrifice, they couldn't wait to kill the other party's entire family now.

But the remaining half of the old people understand the difficulty of this. As Gong Zaoye said, if you kill people directly, those who are deceived will still hate you, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for the ink artist to gain a foothold here.

So half of them were excited, half were silent, but they couldn't think of a truly effective means of doing righteousness. When everyone was at a loss, they stood up and said, "I have a solution, but I can try it." ”
