Chapter Eighty-Six: Wumo Stone Rock

On the Shili River near the stone fort, there are hundreds of similar boats floating on the surface, and dozens of people on the boats are busy casting nets and fishing, but their faces show a very satisfied expression from time to time.

Wei Xing walked slowly along the river bank with more than 5,000 refugees, the carts and carts were loaded with pieces of wolf meat, and the 2,000 soldiers and horses led by Zhang Hua did not return, and continued to wander outside looking for wolves.

The sound of trampling horses' hooves came from a distance, and Huyan Leopard immediately went up with five hundred cavalry.

And Wei Xing didn't have the slightest anxiety or worry, it was only seven or eight miles away from the stone castle, and there would be no major accidents.

As he expected, it was indeed Meng Ping who came over with hundreds of cavalry to greet the team in advance.

"Childe, you've worked hard all the way!" Meng Ping happily jumped off the war horse road.

"Uncle Meng Ping, you keep collecting food at home, it's also very hard, it's not easy for everyone!" Wei Xing also replied happily.

Meng Ping carefully looked at the team behind him and asked, "Childe, there seem to be a lot of children and old people among this group of refugees!" ”

"A considerable part of them are dragged with their families, and it is unavoidable for children and the elderly; The afternoon before yesterday, I happened to meet Uncle Hua on the way, and took the opportunity to bring back all the wolf meat they had collected! Wei Xing explained.

It is generally difficult for young men to leave their wives and children behind and flee alone, and Meng Ping understands this custom of the Central Plains people very well, and he is not good to say anything more.

Wei Xing casually pointed to the boats in the river and asked with great interest, "Uncle Meng Ping, how did you build such a fine boat?" Could it be that among the first three groups of refugees were some civil masters of shipbuilding? ”

"Childe, do you remember the ranger who came over with the Tiger Dart Bureau last winter?" Meng Ping didn't answer, but asked the question first.

"How can you forget? In the spring of this year, more than a dozen guys did not return to Liangzhou with the team, but stayed, saying that they wanted to live with us for a period of time and experience the customs and folklore of the Western Regions! After Wei Xing finished speaking, he immediately reacted and asked in surprise: "Uncle Meng Ping, won't the shipbuilding master be these dozen or so rangers?" ”

Meng Ping smiled mysteriously and said, "They are not just a group of wandering rangers, but also another identity, they have important matters to discuss with you!" ”

"What about the other identity?" Wei Xing muttered to himself, his heart full of doubts.

Stone Fort Chamber

"The contemporary disciple of the Mo family, the ink man Shi Yan, has seen the son of Wei Xing of Phoenix Castle!" A middle-aged man who has been vicissitudes but has a strong force bowed his hand very straightforwardly.

Hearing Shi Yan's self-introduction, Wei Xing was quite surprised, and asked incredulously: "Mo family, ink master?" Are you really Mo Zhai's apprentice? ”

"It's true! If it's fake! Shi Yan replied in a positive voice.

Mojia is a philosophical school in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty of China, one of the hundred schools of thought, together with Confucianism represented by Confucius and Taoism represented by Laozi, which constitute the three major philosophical systems of the Han nation, and is one of the former scholars!

Mohist is a well-disciplined society, members mostly from the lower strata of society, they have a strong spirit of social practice, the hard-working, strict self-discipline, maintenance of justice and morality as an unshirkable responsibility, the main ideas are: advocating equal love between people (love), opposing wars of aggression (non-offensive), advocating economy, opposing extravagance and waste (thrift), attaching importance to inheriting the cultural wealth of predecessors (Ming ghosts), mastering the laws of nature (Tianzhi), etc.

After the death of the founder, Mo Zhai, it split into the Ranger School, the Debate School and the Youshi School.

By the late Warring States period, it was merged into two branches: one focused on the study of epistemology, logic, mathematics, optics, mechanics and other disciplines, which was called "Mohist Post-Studies" (also known as "Later Mohists"), and the other was transformed into rangers in Qin and Han society.

In the Western Han Dynasty, on the one hand, due to the great influence of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who deposed the hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism, on the other hand, due to the changes in social forms and the fact that not everyone could achieve the level of hard training, strict rules and noble thoughts, the Mo family gradually weakened after the Western Han Dynasty.

At this time, it is very rare to hear the words and figures of the Mo family in the society!

This is the main reason why Gongzi Wei Xinggang heard about Shi Yan's self-introduction and felt incredible.

"Your Excellency Shi Yan, please sit down, I just heard that you are an apprentice of the Mo family, and I was a little surprised in my heart, please don't be surprised! Uncle Meng Ping, hurry up and let people serve tea, good tea! Wei Xing showed an extremely enthusiastic look, and then asked excitedly: "By the way, I don't know if Your Excellency is Wu Mo or Mu Mo?" ”

"Wu Mo, Mu Mo?" After Shi Yan sat down, he was a little confused, and he read in a very puzzled mouth.

Wei Xing slapped his forehead, then reacted, and immediately explained: "My husband, I once divided your Mo family into two branches, and called the ink who devoted himself to studying various techniques as Mu Mo, and the rest of the ink who became rangers as Wu Mo!" ”

"Mr. Wei Gongzi's call us the two veins of the Mo family, which is also very appropriate; Shi is considered martial ink, not those pedantic and unrelenting wood ink! ”

When Shi Yan found that Wei Gongzi showed a disappointed expression on the spot, he immediately realized that Phoenix Fort was now very short of some skilled craftsmen, and immediately added: "The two factions of the Mo family have their own focuses, and everyone in our martial arts knows martial arts, and is more proficient in the art of war, and also has various skills, but it is not that they are not as superb as the Mumo disciples in terms of technology!" ”

Wei Xing's mood is much better, Phoenix Castle is now extremely short of all kinds of skilled craftsmen, and there is no shortage of martial artists for the time being!

There is no love for no reason in the world, and there is no hate for no reason, Wei Xing understands this simple truth very well, and asked very euphemistically: "Thank you Brother Shi and others for their great assistance to Phoenix Fort for a period of time, Phoenix Fort dare not forget, I don't know what Phoenix Fort can do to help Brother Shi?" ”

Shi Yan was very satisfied, and felt that Wei Xing was a leader who was very knowledgeable, so he slowly told the Mohist apprentices that they were persecuted and attacked by the Confucian faction in various parts of the Central Plains, and were forced to hide in the shadows.

It is a matter of doctrine and Taoism, Wei Xing doesn't need to think too much, he can know in his heart that the bloodiness and cruelty in it are, to a certain extent, even more cruel than the battle for imperial power!

The losers in the struggle for imperial power will generally only kill some important people and families, and the vast majority of soldiers and followers will be exiled.

But the battle between Taoism and doctrine is not only to destroy the other party's body, but more importantly, to destroy the other party's soul and erase the traces of the other party!

Wei Xing didn't like Confucianism too much in his heart, which made the Han people become sheep, because Confucianism was dominant, which would only make more and more people in the land of China more and more pedantic, narrow-minded and arrogant;

With the rolling wheel of history, it slowly entered the situation of being closed off from the country, backward and beaten, and was put on the hat of shame of being the "sick man of East Asia"!

"In the Western Regions, the influence of Confucianism is very weak! Shi has been quietly observing here for more than half a year, we have a good foundation for cooperation, and the Mo family hopes to form an alliance with your Phoenix Fort to develop and move forward together! Shi Yan solemnly said what he thought in his heart.

Zhang Hua and Tang Zhongwei, who were at home, had already known about Shi Yan's proposal, and they were very willing to form allies with the Mo family;

This is of great benefit to the Phoenix Castle side, especially at this extremely critical stage, Phoenix Castle is in great need of the Mo family's craftsmen to join, like a tiger with wings;

However, due to the temporary absence of Gongzi Wei Xing, the proposal had to be put on hold for the time being.

Wei Xing thought seriously about the kung fu of a stick of incense, and he suddenly responded: "I'm sorry, Your Excellency Shi Yan, I disappointed you!" ”

As soon as these words came out, not only did the ink artist Shi Yan be surprised, but also made Meng Ping and Hu Yanbao on the side feel unsurprising, and they were extremely puzzled in their hearts!

Meng Ping hurriedly said: "Childe? You 、、、、、、"

Wei Xing immediately waved his hand to stop it, and said, "Don't worry! I have my plans! ”

"Wei Gongzi, why? Are you still thinking about the court in the Central Plains? Afraid of the reproach of the Central Plains court? Brother Meng Ping can tell me that you are a descendant of a criminal minister, and there is a great grudge between you and the imperial court! Shi Yan stood up with an ugly face and asked loudly.

The Mo faction in the Central Plains was almost unable to support it, and the persecution of Confucianism was getting more and more serious, so they sent people everywhere to find life!

Shi Yan, a dozen people, accidentally discovered a new style of tables and chairs in the Zhenhu Dart Bureau last year, so they wanted to go to Phoenix Fort to have a look!

After more than half a year, I got to know it thoroughly, and found that Phoenix Fort was very suitable for the survival of the Mo family, which revealed my identity.

finally found a trace of vitality in the Mo family, but now he was politely rejected by Wei Xing on the spot, Shi Yan naturally didn't understand it in his heart, and he was also very depressed!

"Although Phoenix Castle is in great need of craftsmen now, it can't be an ally of equal status with your Mo family!"

"However, our Phoenix Fort can become friends with your Mo family to help each other and give each other some rewards!" Wei Xing said solemnly.

Shi Yan suddenly showed a very confused look, and asked puzzledly, "What's the difference?" ”

"The difference is big, wait for me to talk to you about it in detail!" Wei Xing smiled.

Wei Xing was extremely jealous of the Mo family in his heart, because the Mo family was a well-organized righteous group, and this kind of group could be quite demagogic;

will quietly and silently infect the spirit of the people of Phoenix Castle, and slowly take away the real power of Phoenix Castle.

This is not unbelievable to Wei Xing, the Turkish Communist Party of later generations can defeat the national army that occupies an absolute advantage in all aspects and take away the country by virtue of strict organization, strict discipline and extremely tempting slogans!

"Your Excellency Shi Yan, you drink tea first, calm down, and wait for Wei to speak!" Wei Xing stretched out his right hand and gestured gently to the tea bowl on the table.

Shi Yan exhaled a few breaths, then slowly sat down, drank a large bowl of tea, quickly adjusted his mentality, and patiently waited for Wei Gongzi's next words, what is the difference between the two?
