The origin of tomb robbers can be traced back to ancient times, and since human beings began to consciously purchase burial goods in funeral activities, the profession of tomb robbers has begun to rise! However, in the beginning, due to the equality of status between people, in addition to vendetta and revenge between tribes, the main purpose of tomb robbers to go deep into the tomb was only for the burial goods in the tomb, most of which were the production tools used by the deceased during his lifetime.

However, this kind of behavior has changed greatly with the gradual differentiation of classes, because after the class differentiation, the people engaged in the tomb robbery industry are almost always poor or lowly, and the nobles in the ruling class are more and more addicted to luxury and pleasure, and the atmosphere of thick burials has also risen, making the tomb robbers who were originally only for wealth hated more and more for those nobles who built luxurious mausoleums and tried to continue to enjoy themselves in the underworld!

-- As a result, it is not only the theft of the wealth in the tombs, but also the fact that some of the tomb robbers are very keen to destroy the tombs, and even commit crimes that are not tolerated by the morality of the world, such as the abuse of the bones of the dead!

And even among the group of tomb robbers, such behavior is extremely extreme and not recognized by most people!

After the ancient wilderness, ****, Zhou and the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, to the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the cultural development of the profession of tomb robbers has been quite mature, not only has a large number of professional practitioners, but also developed a set of mature and complete tomb robbery etiquette, including when the tomb robbers who only seek wealth enter the tomb, how to virtually talk to the deceased, when they accidentally offend the bones of the deceased, just to seek wealth How the tomb robbers should behave to calm the anger of the tomb owner, etc., and comfort themselves. to steal property with peace of mind, etc......

Of course, this set of peace rituals is only for tomb robbers who respect the dead, and if those who have a deep hatred for the tomb owner during their lifetime, or want to destroy the tomb out of class hatred, and break the body of the tomb owner to ashes to vent their hatred, then it is in the tomb robber's etiquette. There is also a corresponding radical code of conduct!

This is the culture and civilization that has been passed down from generation to generation by tomb robbers! Although it has always been in the dark, far less bright and dazzling than the hundred schools of thought in the sun, but in the footsteps of time, this culture born in the dark is still growing and gradually maturing in the footsteps of time......

If Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty could follow the ideas of his ancestors and continue to use the Huang Lao doctrine to rule the empire, then even if all the sons of a hundred schools coexisted, the doctrine of the world was chaotic. However, the academic boom will reduce the risk of social unrest, so that the tomb robbery culture will be hidden in the darkness forever! However, Emperor Wu defeated the hundred schools of thought, but because of this, some other things that were covered by the glory of the hundred schools of the sons in the past were displayed in front of the world.

"Time is mourning, and giving is like dying!" -- Since the seeds of hatred have been planted, we are willing to die with you!

For the poor people of the world who are filled with hatred. This kind of pleasure and revenge in the culture of tomb robbers is a tooth for a tooth. The idea of revenge with an eye for an eye will of course be more recognized by the poor people! As for the "love" and "non-attack" ideas preached by the Mo family before, it is a pity that unless Mozi, the founder of the Mo family, is resurrected. Even if the Mo family is still a whole at this time and has not been divided, the group of Mo disciples who are far from being able to reach the Mo family's ancestor Mozi will definitely not be able to calm the anger in the hearts of countless poor people in the world who have no way out who are forced by tyranny!!

And so, in that era that was distorted by tyranny. The culture of tomb robbers, which should have been permanently hidden in the shadows, has come to the light of day and is known and believed by more and more people! Even after the deposition of the Hundred Schools, some of the depressed former Hundred Elites threw themselves into it! So much so that it had a huge impact on the later tomb robbery civilization!

For example, Xie Bo, who was called the evil emperor by the Demon Gate in later generations!

Of course, the evil emperor Xie Bo was not a tomb robber at the beginning, but a disciple of the inheritance of the hundred schools of the princes, but after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed the Confucianism of the hundred schools, due to the weakness of the school he was in, the foundation of the school was easily destroyed by the power from the imperial power, and Xie Bo also hated because of this, and angrily threw himself into the ranks of tomb robbers!

Therefore, Xie Bo robbed the tomb, the purpose is to vent his anger, and because of this, the tomb he stole is only the aristocratic and wealthy families throughout the ages, but they never extend their hands to the commoners' homes, and when Xie Bo goes deep into the tomb, of course, he will sweep away the money in the tomb, but then the more important thing is to open the coffin of the owner of the tomb and abandon the corpse to vent his anger! Therefore, at the beginning, Xie Bo's tomb robbery was almost devastating to the destruction of the ancient tomb!

However, after robbing the noble tombs several times, Xie Bo quickly changed his behavior, because Xie Bo was surprised to find that in the process of robbing the tombs, there are often hidden in these ancient tombs, which are often unknown in the past and extremely brilliant civilization and culture, and with Xie Bo once as the identity and insight of the descendants of the hundreds of families, it is natural to be able to easily distinguish, although the civilization revealed in these tombs is only the tip of the iceberg, but its highly developed, mysterious and magical, But it is still on top of the collection of the inheritance of all the sons and hundreds of schools of thought today!!

What's going on here?

Based on Xie Bo's insight as a person who inherits the hundreds of schools of thought, he certainly knew that in ancient times, because of the antagonism between races and tribes, civilization and culture were relatively closed, however, this was not the reason for the isolation of this culture in the pre-Qin era!

Therefore, there is only one reason, that is, when the society began to divide into classes and class oppression appeared, the ruling class at the top artificially closed and isolated this civilization, so that the common people at the bottom could not obtain this extremely advanced culture to resist themselves......

Therefore, when Xie Bo learned this truth, his goal of going deep into the tomb again had changed, no longer just to vent his anger, but to unearth the civilization that was hidden by the ruling class in the past and see the light of day!

And therefore, although in the process of tomb robbing later. Xie Bo would still open the coffin and throw the corpse of the owner of the tomb, but for the entire tomb itself, he would be very careful not to be damaged in the slightest, for Xie Bo, all the noble tombs at that time were not just evidence of the ruler's oppression of the common people in the world, but the wealth that originally belonged to all the people in the world. Therefore, Xie Bo needs to be more careful to protect!

It is also under this concept, after years of searching, Xie Bo's efforts finally paid off, that is, in a pre-Qin tomb, Xie Bo found a strange yellow transparent essence ball, and it is this strange yellow essence ball, the discovery of the evil emperor relics in later generations shocked the whole world, thus making the influence of tomb robber culture at that time also reached the extreme!

At that time, although the Mo family was still quite large in terms of the remaining power of the Mo army, the people's hearts fluctuated and the belief was lacking due to the split of the Momen forces. So much so that in fact the signs of extreme danger of a total collapse have already begun to appear within it!

In such a situation, the remnants of the Mo family, who seemed to be at the end of their rope, could only choose to replace the lack of Mojia beliefs and thoughts after the departure of the Mo Yan family with the extremely prosperous tomb robber culture at that time, so as to maintain the continuation of the Mo family, and as for the consequences of doing so, for the Mo family, which is facing the disaster, it is really not so much!!

But then again, as a grassroots civilization that is also rooted in the poor. Although tomb robbers and Mohist ideas are at their own extremes, it is undeniable that they are even so. There is still a lot in common between the two, and this is a fact that the soil that gave birth to these two lineages was determined from the beginning, and no one can deny it, so although the integration between them is bound to cause some conflict and loss, but on the whole. But whether it is for the tomb robbers or the remnants of the Mo family, it is a good thing for both parties.

Therefore, after countless setbacks, the two sides finally came together. However, the price paid by the remnants of the Mo family is very great, because they have given up the ideological theme that the Mo family has adhered to since its establishment: love and non-attack!

――Can a disciple of the Mo family who has lost his love and non-offensive heart still be called an orthodox Mo heir?

So in the following decades, the Mo family and the tomb robbers concentrated on the integration of the two sides, one is that both sides are indeed behemoths, so the integration of each other does require great energy and a long time, and the other is that after the death of Emperor Wu, the successive emperors are actively maintaining social stability, so that the class contradictions are eased, the cultural inheritance of the Mo family and the tomb robbers has been recognized by the majority of ordinary people in the world again, but social stability, In this way, during this period of time, not only the new forces after the merger of the Mohists and tomb robbers, but also the other sons of the hundred schools of thought, as well as the Taoists and the ruling class, except for a restless Confucianism who continued to stir up the wind and rain, everyone's life was still very peaceful!

Until Wang Mang, the relative of the respected Confucian and praised by Confucianism as the living saint of the Zhou Dynasty in the current dynasty, made a big news.

After Wang Mang usurped power, he didn't know how to govern the country, which led to the world's economic chaos and the people's livelihood, and under the swarming of the righteous army, the original royal forces surnamed Liu also raised the banner of recovering the country, and in such a situation, the new Mo family was of course not willing to be left behind, so they formed the Red Eyebrow Army and joined in this feast of troubled times!

Then, and then these Red Eyebrow Army, which was composed of the New Mo Family as the core, reached its peak in a flash in the pan - they were beaten by the combination of Liu Xiu, the son of the plane, and Yin Lihua, the first Yin Queen!

In all fairness, the Red Eyebrow Army, which is composed of the backbone of the New Mo family, is indeed strong, and its own ideological beliefs are also extremely firm, however, although the New Mo family has its own huge advantages, but also, because of its background at the grassroots level, the New Mo family is seriously lacking in knowledge at the level of national rule, which is also the fundamental reason why the Red Mei Army is rapidly corrupted after entering Chang'an.

So the ending, in fact, has been decided from the beginning. The Red Eyebrow Army was defeated by Liu Xiu, but in fact, it was not unjustly lost.

Therefore, in the future, Liu Xiu and his descendants each generation polished their eyes to resist the Mo family, lest this restless force would pose a serious threat to the rule of the imperial power, and after being monitored by the ruler and the witch from the court and the rivers and lakes respectively, even though the new Mo family was rooted in the toiling masses, the belief in hatred of the ruling class did not change. But it can only be in such a situation, and I have to be a man with my tail between my legs unwillingly!

The humiliating period lasted from the founding of the country to the end of the empire...... However, in such a long period of time, the real enemy of the Mo family in the future, Buddhism! But it has really grown up, and Buddhism, which was born in ancient Tianzhu and was born out of the original religion of Tianzhu, not only has its religious ideology and belief been more mature than the consistent inheritance of Mohists. It is also because of its consistent idea of persuading people to tolerate and give up fighting spirit for goodness, and has won the favor of rulers.

In this way, with the acquiescence and indulgence of the ruling class, although the spread of Buddhism has not been as fanfare as great as Confucianism, it has been steadily and rapidly expanding its influence in the land of China. Not only is the Mohist family, who is at the bottom of the society, suffered a major impact from Buddhism, but even the Taoist faith, which has always been escaping from the world and having no quarrel with the world, has also felt the major threat brought by the growth of Buddhism! It is precisely because of the great threat brought about by the spread of Buddhism that under pressure, Taoism has also begun to transform rapidly, thus completing the transformation from academic thought to religious belief in this short period of time! Although it is only the prototype of a religion, yet. After all, Taoism has become Taoism after all, and. I have to admit that at this stage, the object of Taoist learning is his enemy, Buddhism! Therefore, the threat of Buddhism was also at the end of the empire. The many factions of Taoism will unite in an all-round way to jointly decide an important reason to aid the Mo family!

However, at that time, the influence of the Mo family in the poor people of the world had long been inferior to Buddhism, and even because of their own civil strife and the fact that the Buddhism's perfect creed of "love, indisputability, and forbearance" was very similar to the original Mojia belief, some Mojia disciples who were very dissatisfied with the changes of the Mohist family even threw themselves into the increasingly prosperous Buddhism, and became the backbone of Buddhism in the future! Therefore, under this trend, if the Mohists do not change again in response to this phenomenon. Then the remnants of the Mo family will inevitably be replaced by Buddhism soon!

What to do?

Perhaps in fact, from the very beginning, when the Mo family inheritance became a vested interest in the war at the end of the Qin Dynasty, he was also doomed to be unable to turn back!

If it can't be turned into medicine, it will become poison, and the former prominent Mo family can't turn into water after all, since they have all chosen to integrate with the tomb robber culture, and in fact have completely transformed into a new inheritance, then the remnants of the original Mo family that have been transformed don't mind going further......

If it is said that before Wang Mang's usurpation of power, the Taoists of the WTO sect would still have illusions about the ruling class, then the fact that Liu Xiu restored the Han Dynasty but still reused Confucianism and failed to reuse Taoism was undoubtedly a powerful slap in the face to all the Taoist people who were full of hope.

At this time, then, there is only one way to reappear in the court of Taoism: to completely abandon all previous efforts in the temple, and to turn to the management of the people's resistance rooted in the grassroots, and then to grow their own power while quietly waiting - until the world changes, and then seize the world, just as the Han Gaozu Liu Bang took the world, and then, Taoism is replacing Confucianism and re-becoming the governing doctrine on which the rulers depend!

However, this requires the support of many large and small factions led by the Mo family, which have long been rooted in the people at the bottom!

However, the Taoist faction had to go underground because of the exclusion of the ruling class, and it has not been very satisfactory since the period of Emperor Wu, so the connection with the many factions at the bottom led by the Mo family is also getting closer and closer, and now it is not very difficult to fully integrate into the lower class, and now the bottom forces have been continuously suppressed by the ruling class, and they are in urgent need of foreign aid when their strength is greatly damaged, so the Taoist joining, In fact, the low-level faction led by the Mo family must also be extremely happy.

However, this is not enough......

――So, how about adding the Fangshi lineage?

As the so-called name of the person, the shadow of the tree, although the Fangshi lineage collapsed after the Han Dynasty, but because it was reused by the ruling class twice, its means of deception among the people have become more and more perfect, so that although the essential inheritance of the pursuit of immortality has been lost, the people who have not been able to deceive the people who have not seen much to deceive the money, but they still succeed repeatedly, and such a method has naturally been seen by the Mo family for a long time!

The original Mo family, of course, scoffed at such a means of exploitation, and even if it weren't for the fact that the Mo family was caught in infighting, they would inevitably take the initiative to take action for the people in addition to this great harm, but unfortunately, because in the end, the Mo family's internal struggle led to the split of the Mo family, so that until the end, the Mo family could not really free up their hands to carry out this plan!

And when the Mohist split and changed and merged again, the new Mohist view of the world also had a new change: although the monks who specialize in deceiving the people are inferior, they can gather a large number of people's hearts, which is also an excellent method, and the Mohist may not be able to use it in order to develop, besides, the Mohist at that time has long been defeated by Buddhism, and its influence in the folk has been defeated by the impact of Buddhism, and therefore, in order to continue the Mohist inheritance so that it will not be cut off, the disciples of the new Mohist family can only use unscrupulous means, Do everything you can!

As a result, after merging with the Taoism that entered the WTO, the new force that transformed into a new force directly took action and swallowed up the inheritance of the remnants of the Fangshi lineage among the people!

There is no way, after passing through the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, the real inheritance has long been cut off, and because the sect has been devastating twice, the Fangshi lineage has actually been scattered and scattered throughout the people of the empire, so that it is difficult to condense into a whole to tide over the difficulties when the crisis comes, and therefore, the emerging forces formed by the fusion of the emerging Mohist and the Taoist sect of the WTO will annex it without much effort!!

In this way, a new, mixed but absolutely based on the people, completely opposed to the ruling class, was formally formed, this force did not exist for a long time, because soon, it will fall apart again because of another major setback, and start the long evolution again, but at this time it is extremely stable, and because the chaos in the world has gradually appeared, this force, at this time, is full of hope and ambition to make a big thing! (To be continued.) )
