Chapter 386: Form and Knowledge
The Chu army eventually retreated, and after the fierce fighting on the second day, the Chu generals finally gave up their plans to attack Cao and retreated. The Mo family completed the first defense of the city, but the sacrifice was also very large, seventeen Mo people were sacrificed, and thirty-eight were injured, which was a big blow to the newly established Mo school.
The ink masters were all excellent craftsmen, and they died in a foreign land in order to defend the Cao Kingdom. Juzi mourned: "The ancients, the princes and princes who govern the country, all want the wealth of the country, the people, and the rule of the administration. The three husbands are also the pursuit of the Mo family, and now they have not yet prospered the benefits of the world, and in addition to the harm of the world, they will turn into ghosts, whining and mourning......"
Yun Yao was also quite moved when he heard this, and through 'rejuvenating the world's benefits and eliminating the harms of the world', the country's prosperity and strength, population growth, and smooth administration were completed. In addition to the seemingly very high-end and atmospheric concepts of love and non-aggression, the Mohists are actually very simple and give a very clear standard, that is, the country is rich and strong, the population is large, and the politics is clear.
And in order to achieve this goal, the ink man sacrificed his young life.
Because the Mo scholars oppose 'thick burials and long mourning', the funeral is very simple and simple, that is, one person and one grave.
Cao experienced a war, and the Mo family had to guide Cao how to restore the economy, that is, to save.
Eat simply, dress simply, and don't waste any more. Of course, it is mainly for the monarch, and ordinary people have no way to waste it.
To say to the monarch 'not to be extremely the tune of the five flavors' is not to pursue the harmony of the five flavors, and to firmly oppose Confucius's saying 'do not get tired of eating, but not tired of fine', just eat to your heart's content.
And it is also necessary to 'serve the people with enough work', that is, the craftsman does not make too many things, everyone has enough on the line, in short, it must be saved, not wasted.
Cao Jun also agreed again and again, and hoped that the Mo family would not leave in a hurry and stay to give lectures first.
The giants also have this plan, and they are indeed ready to stay and continue to promote their 'love and non-attack' and expand their personnel.
The more Chinese listened, the happier he became, and he rushed to do it every time he worked, and in the working atmosphere of the Mo family, every Mo man was proud of his hard work and ashamed of his laziness. Work during the day and attend classes at night.
In addition to the various definitions of 'love and non-attack' and the needs of craftsmen, Juzi occasionally talks about some of the content of 'words have three expressions', that is, how to speak and how to express. Later generations of writers will continue to expand on this basis to form a complete set of debate logic.
For example, when the ink writer proposes a debate, the standard must be the same, otherwise the chicken and the duck will talk, for example, the length of the wooden stick and the length of the long night cannot be compared with the length.
Juzi is indeed erudite, if 'love and non-attack' is a high summary of the simple desire of the Chinese people to accumulate wealth, and the definitions are the standards made by craftsmen in order to work better, then 'words have three expressions' is the extraction of the knowledge that Juzi has mastered.
Every time he listened to the class, Lingbao Daoist was fascinated, because the Mo family's knowledge was very appetizing to him.
The Mo family repelled the Chu State, and the news soon spread all over the world, and many people came to Cao State to apprentice, of course, there were also many Confucians who heard that the Mo family was 'non-Confucian', so they wanted to come to Mozi to debate.
In fact, the two debates couldn't come to any reason, so the result was that no one was convinced.
Yun Yao continued to work on his own robot, at this time the robot had already taken shape, and it could simply take two steps. But it is obviously not possible to say that it is life, because it also requires intelligence.
"Ugly, ugly." This is not Xia Ji's own opinion, but the four beauties think so.
It's really ugly, Yun Yao also thinks it's ugly, but there's no way, who let her not draw the design drawings, and the parts are not accurately manufactured, it is to build a steam-powered robot by hand with the technology of the Spring and Autumn Period, except for the power is mana real fire, the others are at the level of the Spring and Autumn Period.
Its ability to move has proven that Yun Yao's hands-on ability is good.
"You can only move one pot of steam." Yun Yao thought to herself that creating artificial intelligence was really not so simple, and this homework was about to fail.
Because the steam cannot be recycled, it is necessary to refill the pot after boiling. Unless the volume of the pot is increased, in that case, the robot will become larger, and it may become a steam locomotive.
Steam trains in the Spring and Autumn Period? I can definitely make it, but it's not homework, it's an additional question. Yun Yao's homework is 'life, form and knowledge'.
"This is the life you made?" Lingbao Daoist happened to pass by, and when he saw the robot made by Yun Yao, he turned in, looked up and down and did not laugh, but judged very professionally.
If it comes to life, Lingbao Daoist knows very well that immortals can ignite stones, plants and trees, that is the real life, and what Yunyao makes is at most a utensil, which cannot contain the soul.
"It doesn't look very smart, even if you turn a stubborn stone into a child, at least you have seven or eight years of intelligence, and you are smarter than you." Lingbao Daoist knew that Yun Yao's purpose was to practice Mozi's teachings, and he did the same, but he had to remind him and said: "Although Juzi did say 'life, form and knowledge', he didn't say what knowledge is. ”
The sentence "force, the reason why the shape is excited" is much simpler, force is the cause of deformation and movement, and it is easy to understand that fen is movement and change. Therefore, force, form, and fen are all very clear concepts, but Juzi did not define 'knowledge'.
It's completely Yun Yao, as a traverser, who preconceived that 'knowledge' is something like artificial intelligence, and didn't ask Mozi what knowledge is.
Yun Yao suddenly realized that why the homework could not be completed, it turned out to be the teacher's sake, so he bowed to the Lingbao Taoist and said, "Thank you for your advice." ”
Lingbao Daoist didn't dodge and accepted this thanks.
So Yun Yao found Mozi and asked for teaching.
"What do you want to ask?" The giant knows everything about the ink and will not hide it.
"Juzi said before, 'Life, form and knowledge', form is our body, so what is knowledge?" Yun Yao asked.
Mo Zhai was stunned for a moment, obviously he hadn't thought about it, knowing was born, and he knew that this was to do 'knowledge'. If he were to explain what innate knowledge is, how would he know?
However, Mo Zhai felt that this question was very good, and after thinking about it for a long time, he said, "I don't know how to answer this question. But do you remember when we talked about 'whiteness'? ”
"Yes." Yun Yao naturally remembered that this topic was quite interesting, so he recalled: "It was about the firmness and color of the stone, and finally came to the conclusion that the firmness and color of the stone cannot be separated from each other, and are one." ”
Later, the famous famous Gongsun Long put forward the views of leaving Jianbai and white horses and not horses. Leaving the white means that there are only white stones and solid stones in this world, because the eyes can only see white, and the hands can only touch the firm, so there is no stone in the world that combines white and solid. Just like the white horse is not a horse, it belongs to the idea of stealing the concept.
The ink scholars discussed the whiteness and came to the conclusion that the whiteness is something that cannot be excluded from each other. But what does this topic have to do with Yun Yao's question?
Yun Yao quietly listened to Juzi's teachings.
"I think form and knowledge, hard and white are the same, form and knowledge cannot be excluded, there is knowledge in the form, and there is knowledge in the form." That's what the giant said.
Yun Yao thought to herself, just that her robot is not delicate enough, not real enough? If the form is false and true, the spirit is self-generated?
