"Huh?" Fowl Slippery screamed in surprise, Mozi glanced at him, and asked in a low voice, "Master, are you saying that the junior sister is the ghost Ji Niangniang?" ”

"Yes, she was originally a soul cultivator, and I persuaded her to worship under the door and make her do good in the world, and I refined the jade pure bottle for her incarnation. You know this, don't talk about it with others! Mozi also wanted to let the bird slip know some things about Guanshiling, so as not to fall into it and not be able to extricate himself.

"I see! Don't worry, Master, disciple understands! ”

Ningyi (now Xiuwu County, Jiaozuo, Henan), the ancient place, after years of change, is now just a small city, located on the north bank of the river, at the foot of Taihang. The heavy rain of the past few days moistened the lush flowers and plants along the road, and occasionally a few deer and birds chirped, bringing some vitality to this boring rush. In order to adjust the taste, the bird slippery took the two junior brothers to hunt a deer nearby, a burst of peeling and cleaning, roasting on the fire, the original game, fragrant for a hundred meters, the smell of the saliva flowed, and even the goshawk in the sky smelled the smell and landed next to the tree and waited.

After enjoying the desire of the tongue, the four masters and apprentices continued to hurry, and finally entered Naningyi before dark, found a large family, and rested for the night. In the early morning of the second day, the four of them set out on the journey again and went straight to the next stop, Yewangyi.

Yewangyi (now Qinyang, Henan), the north bank of the river, the south of Jinshui, the southern pass of Taihang. According to the danger of the river in the south of this place, the west is the Wangwu Yiguan, and the east guards the song of the court. Since ancient times, there have been Qin Huaigu County, Heshuo Famous State, Shangyin Hometown, and the hometown of Lesheng. It is really the most important strategic city of the Jin Kingdom.

Such strategic places are important places for military defense, and the troops are strictly controlled; However, it is also an economic artery, and merchants from the south to the north pass through here; Of course, it is also a cultural center, on the other side of the river is Luoyi, the capital of the Son of Heaven, and the capital of Jin is Jiangdu when you go west through Yiguan, and the old capital of the Shang Dynasty is Chaoge in the east, and you will enter the hinterland of the Jin Kingdom when you go north to Taihang.

Of course, such a strategic location is a city with many defenses. For example, Naquyang and Yuancheng guard the west, Xiangcheng, Dengcheng, Heyang, Wencheng and Xingqiu guard the banks of the river, Zhoucheng and Huaicheng guard the west bank of the Jinshui River, Kuicheng and Shanyang guard the east bank of Jinshui, Tianmen Pass and Gaodu guard the north into the Central Plains and so on. These many cities are like the stars holding the moon, guarding this wild king's city.

With such a strategic city, Mozi would naturally explain its importance to his disciples. Traveling around the world, is to see the mountains and rivers, customs, strategic layout, economic development, human environment, etc., only know these, if it is useful in the future, you will know it. Along the way, many cities, Mozi himself has never been, and the information obtained is also a brief record, hearsay, this time just confirmed and formed his own opinions.

Approaching August, the day is the hottest, the wings on the trees are vibrating like a competition, and under the scorching sun, it is difficult to see a trace of wind on the mountain road, and it is extremely hot. Fortunately, this is a mountainous area, and there is no shortage of mountains and rivers along the way, otherwise it would be strange to rely on this rush, I am afraid that I will not collapse. Gao He and Xian Zishuo held a branch and leaf on their heads, grinning and opening their arms, and a big leaf in their hands was snorting and fanning, even then they were drenched, like rain. It is also a bird slippery, and it is also a big leaf on his head with one hand to shade his head, and he keeps his head down, holding a bamboo pole, and follows behind the master. Only Mozi is still striding meteors, not afraid of the scorching sun.

Gao He and Xian Zishuo in the back saw that they were a little far away, and they ran a few steps and caught up with Mozi: "Master, Master, let's rest for a while, I really can't walk." ”

"Hold on any longer, see the stone in front of you, there's a stream there, let's go there to rest, and we can drink water by the way." Mozi pointed ahead.

"Huh? Master, your eyes are so good, I can only vaguely see a stone, not the stream. Well, just listen to Master. Gao He shook off his sweat and said, "Master, why aren't you tired at all, we are all sweating, and you are just a little sweaty." ”

"I'm used to the cold and heat, and I've practiced it since I was a child. As long as you don't think about it, you don't feel tired, so you can walk far, otherwise take a few steps, you will remember to rest, and the time to walk is not as long as the rest, when can it come to an end? You can try as I say, don't always think about resting, empty your brain, if you want to think, think about things that have nothing to do with walking, such as reading, cultivating, and think about things that you find interesting, so that time will pass quickly. In addition, adjust your breathing, adjust your breathing, and don't breathe through your mouth, so that your body is not likely to run out of water too quickly. Then run the Qi method I taught you and let the Qi circulate in your body, and it will be much better. Mozi explained in detail.

Sure enough, under Mozi's supervision, the speed of using the method was much faster, and I didn't feel tired. Finally, before dusk, the four masters and apprentices crossed the Jinshui and entered the wild king.

At this moment, no matter how prosperous this Yewangyi is, it can't move the hearts of Gao He and County Zishuo, all they want is to quickly eat a cold meal of melons and fruits, and then sleep beautifully.

Mozi is a good master, knowing that his disciples are in a hurry, when he arrived at Yewangyi, he found a big inn, and hung the guise "Zhao's Inn" in front of him. I first asked for two guest rooms, and asked the shopkeeper to arrange dinner, and after dinner, I let the disciples rest early, and I sat in the guest hall, asked for a pot of herbal tea, asked for some wine and side dishes, and invited the shopkeeper to come over and chat while drinking.

"Shopkeeper Zhao, how long has this inn been open? Business is booming! After taking a sip of wine, Mozi said to Shopkeeper Zhao.

"Hehe, it's okay, it's okay, thanks to the care of new and old friends, it's okay! The dissatisfied guest officer said that this inn has been open for many years, and if I remember correctly, it must have been nearly two hundred years, and it has been in my hands for twenty years. Shopkeeper Zhao said with a smile.

"Oh, this is an old store with a history, no wonder the business is so good!" Mozi complimented, "To be able to inherit it for so long, could it be that you, the Zhao family, are the descendants of Zhao Chengzi?" ”

"Hehe, it's no secret, my ancestor is Zhao Chengzi." The shopkeeper is honest.

"Disrespectful! Disrespectful! When Mozi heard this, he stood up and hugged his fists, "Zhao Chengzi assisted Duke Wen to achieve the hegemony of the Jin Kingdom, regardless of personal gains and losses, such a mind is admired by the real order!" ”

"It seems that the guest officer is also a person who is familiar with historical books, and he has a reputation as a guest officer, and we are also protected by Tuo Zuyin!" Shopkeeper Zhao also hurriedly stood up and returned the salute, "I don't know what the guest officer is called?" ”

"In Xia Mo Zhai, the surname of the child, a person from the Song Kingdom." Mozi replied, "I took my disciples on a trip today, and I happened to pass by here. ”

"Sub-surname? Could it be that Mr. Fei is a descendant of SenseTime? "This shopkeeper is not an ordinary person, as soon as he hears Mozibao's surname, he knows the root.

"Exactly, in the lower ancestor is Shang Huizi, Feng Song, and Zhixianggong branch is Ziyu." Mozi also replied.

"Descendant of the Duke, disrespectful! Disrespectful! This shopkeeper Zhao didn't expect Mozi to be a descendant of Ziyu, "I think that the ancestor Chengzi and your ancestor Muyi were also close friends!" ”

"Exactly!"

As soon as these words were exchanged, they were friends for many generations, and there were more words between them, and the shopkeeper poured a bowl of wine for Mozi: "Come, we are the confidant of our ancestors, and you and I will meet again in this life, do it!" ”

"!"

After coming and going, the more this was said, the closer it became.

Shopkeeper Zhao asked: "Seeing that Brother Mo Zhai is so young, he should not be more than two or five, but he actually brought a disciple, which is really amazing!" I don't know what art the Mo Zhai brothers have passed on? ”

"Thanks to Brother Zhao's praise, there are many methods passed down below, including the way of governing the country through the world, the way of attacking and defending, and the way of practicing martial arts." Mozi replied.

"Huh? Brother Mo Zhai's words, I don't seem to have heard it somewhere. Shopkeeper Zhao rubbed his head and slapped the table, "I remember, Doctor Guanqin, yes!" It's Dr. Guanqin. ”

As soon as he heard the words "Doctor Guanqin", Mozi knew it, and smiled silently.

"When Dr. Guanqin first met Yi Zai, he said that the way taught by his teacher can govern the country through the world internally, and attack and defend the city externally, and the way of cultivating martial arts is the way of fine martial arts. Isn't this exactly what Brother Mo Zhai said? By the way, Dr. Guanqin respectfully calls his teacher 'Mozi', isn't it your brother? Shopkeeper Zhao said excitedly.

Mozi didn't answer "yes" or "no", but asked, "I wonder if that Guanqin doctor is still in Yewangyi?" What are his achievements, can you please tell the shopkeeper Zhao? ”

"A genius who rules the world!" As soon as the shopkeeper Zhao heard it, he knew that Mo Zhai must be that Mozi, but it had not been officially confirmed, and when he saw Mozi asking about Guanqin, he immediately gave a thumbs up and gave a comment.

"Oh? How to govern the world? Could you please tell the shopkeeper Zhao in detail? Mozi picked up the wine bowl and saluted the shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper Zhao took a sip of wine, put down the wine bowl, and said: "Although this Yewangyi was originally a rich city, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, this kind of wealth lies in the exchange of merchants and merchants. But at the beginning of spring the year before last, a handsome man came to Yewangyi, who called himself Guanqin. Shopkeeper Zhao said in detail.

In the spring of 457 B.C., a young man came to Yewangyi, who inquired all the way to the Yizaifu and recommended himself as a guest.

At that time, the shopkeeper Zhao was chatting with Zhao Wuxing, the shopkeeper of Zhao was also a person with a head and face in this Yewangyi, and he was a member of the Zhao clan, so he often went back and forth to the Yizai Mansion. When Zhao Wuxing saw this self-recommended person, he was dressed in gray linen clothes, wearing tattered straw sandals on his feet, and a gray cloth package on his shoulder, just dressed as a rural villager. This is the kind of person who also came forward to recommend himself, and no one in the Yi Zaifu can harvest it? At that time, Zhao Wuxing looked at this crown qin, and he didn't have any enthusiastic words, and asked indifferently: "Since you recommended yourself, are you a family student or a teacher?" What kind of talent you have, let's talk about it first. ”

The young man also knew that his dress would be despised by people, but he didn't care about it, but said with a smile: "The adults treat me so indifferently, or do you see that I am dressed in shabby clothes and look like a person?" The great husband stands in heaven and earth, not in the face of a coat and hat, but in his inner beauty. Don't you see that the flowers are not blooming, the beans are pregnant and the beans are raised, and the beauty of the orchid is tempting, and there is nothing to play with. Does Eizae-sama want a flower or an orchid? ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Wuxing immediately stood up and said secretly: Even if you can say this, this person is not simple. immediately changed his attitude, stood up, and arched his hand: "It's Zhao who is rude, please take a seat." After the young man sat down, Fang arched his hand and asked, "Mr. Fang only said a few words, which is really alarming, Zhao is willing to ask for flowers, and please introduce himself." ”

The young man stood up and saluted before sitting down: "In the Xia Lu country, people from civilian background, Guanqin is also." What he learned is inherited by the teacher, and the teacher does not dare to speak out, respecting his Mozi. Our division is talented and knowledgeable, knows astronomy and geography, and preaches the way of the world, which can govern the country through the world internally, and attack the city and defend the fortress externally, and cultivate the way of fine martial arts. In the lower dull, in the teacher's door for eight years, only to strengthen the body, the way of the world, the learning includes the teacher Mo Shi and love, the virtuous, non-offensive thoughts, but also learn "Guanzi", "Ziyu Law", "Yuan Zhen", "Liutao" and other sages to govern the world, the art of war. ”

"Oh? He has learned so much that he can learn even such unpassed books. People who don't know who to respect the teacher? ”

"Lord Yi Zai, it's not that Guanqin doesn't say it, but without the permission of the teacher, he doesn't dare to talk nonsense. However, the teacher set up a 'Mo's School' in Qufu, with dozens of disciples, and then there was Yique's 'Mo's School', with dozens of disciples, and Guanqin learned from the 'Mo's School'. Guanqin said with a fist to the east.

When Zhao Wuxing heard this, he wrote it down in his heart. Another detailed discussion, sure enough, as Guanqin himself said, it is really the head of everything that is said, and several cases are talked about, citing classics, reasoning and analysis, which is extremely admirable. In the end, Zhao Wuxing asked this wild prince that he was now politically harmonious, how to govern, and how to improve.
