Chapter Ninety-Nine: Qi Shooter
After the solemn apprenticeship ceremony, Zhao Yong became Dai Yan's official disciple. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Master, since your knowledge is so profound, why don't you go to the Jixia Academy to give a lecture?" After Zhao Yongyi apprenticed, he immediately began to persuade Dai Yan.
"I've always been a little worried. After all, my identity is still a proton, and if I rush to give a lecture in the Jixia Academy, I'm afraid that there will be criticism at that time! Dai Yan said truthfully.
"If Master is worried, I didn't ask the Prince of Qi State, as long as the prince nods, I don't dare to criticize anyone!" Zhao Yong said to Dai Yan.
Immediately, after Dai Yan agreed, he left quickly.
"Childe, do we really want to explain science in this palace?" After Zhao Yong left, Tangzi asked Dai Yan.
"Of course. The disputes between the world are not only between countries, but also extremely tragic in academic thought. Since its founding, Mohist has been competing with Confucianism, and the two cannot coexist, why is this? Because the two doctrines have different foundations, there is no room for mediation between the two sides. If Confucianism wins, the world will establish an order dominated by Confucianism. If Mo Jiasheng wins, the same situation will be true.
It seems to me that the effects of victory or defeat in wars between nations over land can last for years or decades at most. However, the impact of victory and defeat in the battle of academic ideas will last for hundreds or even thousands of years! It seems to me that this is a greater battlefield than the conquest of the nations! ”
Dai Yan has the historical experience of later generations, and of course he knows that in the end, it is Confucianism that has triumphed. Confucianism later established an order throughout China for more than 2,000 years, and its influence even continued into modern times and modern times, becoming the core idea of Chinese civilization!
To be honest, Dai Yan has never been impressed with Confucianism in his heart.
In fact, the ruling order of Confucianism also has many advantages. In later generations, it also created the "prosperous era" of many great unified dynasties. However, in Dai Yan's view, no matter how good Confucianism is, it is a ruling ideology that represents the interests of the landlord class. It does not allow Chinese civilization to evolve from an agricultural civilization to an industrial civilization.
For this reason, Dai Yan will ruthlessly abandon it.
Today, the Jixia Academy is at the heart of a hundred schools of thought, and the debate here may affect the history of future generations for thousands of years! Here he must make a name for a new doctrine, science, and put it on the throne of thought, making it the "orthodox" idea of the future!
Dai Yan is to occupy the high frontier of thought!
With Zhao Yong's efforts, when Tian Bijiang heard that Dai Yan had created a new doctrine, he was very interested, so he quickly organized a debate and summoned Dai Yan to come.
Dai Yan was not afraid at all and happily went to the meeting! The elites of the Mo family and the peasant family, Tangzi and Chen Xiang, also followed Dai Yan to the meeting.
The debate is free for both sides to debate whatever they want, and the prince only presides over the debate on both sides as the moderator.
When the two sides sat down, Dai Yan only glanced at the opposite side for the first time, and knew that Tian Bijiang was uneasy and kind.
Because the first person sitting opposite him was an ink man in a short-sleeved and brown suit!
Tian Pijiang is especially fond of learned people, and he also understands the knowledge created by Dai Yan. However, he himself never looked at the writings of various schools, but only asked scholars from all walks of life for the general idea of the doctrine.
Therefore, when he learned that Dai Yan had created a new doctrine and absorbed the Mo family and the peasant family, he knew how to see the real excitement!
Tian Pijiang is not too interested in academic disputes, and the biggest reason why he presided over this debate is that he can see these great sages arguing with each other for their own Taoism! He is a very lively person, and in his heart, this kind of excitement is the most interesting!
The Mohist school is the school with the strongest organizational ability and the strongest combat effectiveness in the world. Now that the new doctrine created by the prince of the Song Kingdom integrates Nanmo, and he wants to teach in the palace under this Ji, then the first hurdle he has to pass is this Dongmo, which has taken root in the Qi country!
So what kind of excitement can compare with the Mohist school of Shangmoism?
Qi Jiaozi is very angry in his heart now!
As Wu Hou's personal disciple, one of the three inks in the world, the giant of Dongmo, when the personal disciple of the giant Tian Jiu of Nanmo followed Dai Yan to the Qi country, he was extremely vigilant, worried that Nanmo would ignore the rules and privately develop in Qi and encroach on Dongmo's territory!
Now, that fear has finally come true!
Since Nanmo came to encroach on Dongmo's territory, Dongmo no longer needs to take care of the friendship of the same family!
Therefore, as soon as everyone sat down, he couldn't wait to take the lead and said to Dai Yan: "I heard that Gongzi has created a new scientific science, and even the giant of the south, Tian Jiu, is willing to serve Gongzi. As the giant of Dongmo, I want to ask: Are you Nanmo going to betray the ancestor Mozi and join him? ”
In the last sentence, he said it to the entangler.
Such a question has a strong suspicion of sowing discord, and Dai Yan is not easy to answer it.
So Tangzi spoke: "I, the disciples of the Mo family, still respect the giant son, and are we willing to be the corpse of the giant son?" When did you say that you would deviate from the way of your ancestor Mozi? ”
Qi Jiaozi sneered, "Haven't you already turned to the door of science? Isn't this a betrayal of the patriarch? ”
Tangzi replied: "It seems that Xie Zi (Qi Shezi, also known as Xie Zi) has never understood science at all. The so-called science refers to the many disciplines and systems formed by the study of different disciplines and the refinement of knowledge, which we call science. As a giant, Xie Zi certainly knows that my Mo family is realistic, and he is constantly seeking the truth. I lectured in the Song Kingdom before, and later studied the geometry and logic taught by Gongzi, only to find that although my Mohists are realistic, their own knowledge structure has great fallacies, so we have improved the doctrine, and from the knowledge of the Mohists, we have continuously divided new disciplines, thus creating many basic disciplines!
Although we call this new knowledge science, the main body of people who study this knowledge is still my Mohist disciple, and then joined the peasant family. And I did not go against the knowledge of the ancestor Mozi, on the contrary, we actually magnified the knowledge of the ancestor!
In our opinion, you Dongmo only know how to shake your lips and debate now, but do not make a reference to reality. This is actually going down the wrong path! A situation like yours is the real betrayal of the ancestor and the deviation from the way of Mozi! ”
Eastern Mo and Southern Mo are very different. Because Qi Guoji's school palace treats the Magi well, Dongmo's life here is extremely nourishing, and they don't need to work for others to survive like Nanmo before they met Dai Yan.
They had the privileged status provided by the Qi state, and instead began to study knowledge and dialectics.
They have a lot of experience in debate, so when they heard that Nanmo had actually created a discipline, Qi Jiaozi laughed, and he said: "My Mo family is divided into three factions, which is a last resort, how can anyone in the world learn to separate themselves from the discipline?" Could it be that you Nanmo actually want to learn Confucianism and divide it into eight schools? ”
Hearing this, Dai Yan began to refute: "The Book of Ink has clouds: know: smell, say, pro, name, truth, combination, for." This is the Mohist view of knowledge, which in my opinion is the Mohist induction of knowledge. However, in my opinion, this generalization is not accurate! Smell, say, dear, these are the ways of the source of knowledge; And name, substance, and combination are the types of knowledge that the Mohists have.
The induction in the Book of Ink is very similar to the logic pioneered in the next place, but in my opinion, this kind of induction of the Mohists is indeed inaccurate, so of course it needs to be corrected! Doesn't Xie Zi think so?"
"Correction is correction, so what does it mean to create a new discipline? Isn't this an act of betrayal of the Mo family? Qi Shotzi asked sarcastically.
Hearing this, Chen Xiang, the elite of the peasant family, began to answer this question: "How much is there in the world? Induction is to find out the similarities in all things and put them together, which is induction. However, in our view, if we look carefully, all things in the world can naturally have similarities, and therefore can be summed together; However, even the closest things in the world have differences between their individuals.
Take our farmer, for example, who believes that no two leaves are the same. The biology pioneered by the farmer is divided into botany and zoology. If we look at the similarities, trees and sheep are both alive, and they both go through the process of life and death, and we can classify them as living beings. But can we say that trees and sheep are the same? What a difference between them: a sheep can run around, while a tree stays where it is, detached from the soil, and it can't survive! This is the separation of zoology and botany.
In order to understand the world more clearly, isn't it the right to unify the newly summarized things and study them together, and to create a new discipline? ”
Qi Jiaozi was speechless.
