In the twenty-fifth year of the Xia Dynasty, after the autumn harvest.

The most leisurely day of the year is not the seemingly coldest winter day, but after the autumn harvest.

The weather at this time of year has not really turned cold, and the people who have been busy for a year will also be busy with the work in the fields, and the harvest of the year will be in hand, and the surplus wealth will be left in their hands.

At this time of year, the voices of small traders and vendors in the past will be louder, and business travelers will start to move around frequently.

Most of the money in the hands of the people will be saved for the winter and beyond, but after all, the harvest has just been sold, and it is a little more generous than usual, and it is inevitable to buy it.

In addition to these obvious changes, the biggest difference is that the people also have more free time.

Originally, this free time could only be used by the parents of the neighborhood to entertain themselves, but this year is different.

Outside the palace, not far away, there is already a palace gate, which is quite large, although it is not very luxurious, but it is also frequently eye-catching.

This palace has a name that is not humble at all, Tianxia Xue Palace.

In the twenty-third year of the Xia Dynasty, the Xia Emperor had issued a recruitment order, inviting people of insight from all over the world to come here to preach the scriptures and discuss the Tao, regardless of country, status, age, as long as you feel that you have mastered the way to make the country strong, you can come and say.

Although the court of the Xia Dynasty decided for itself that the time for this grand event to start was after the autumn harvest, as early as the news came out, a sage had already run over and took the lead in telling his own ideas and morals.

If it can be convincing, it is not impossible to be crowned with a wife and a son, and to be promoted to a knighthood.

But it is precisely this kind of condition that seems to have no threshold, is extremely broad, and can get quite a lot of benefits, and it is even more difficult to stand out from it.

Not to mention that there is a Mo family pressing there, no matter how to talk about morality, can it be stronger than the Mo family?

Many people feel that this recruitment order is just a way for the Xia Dynasty to show its national strength, so that sages from various countries can come here for a trip, and if they can stay, they can earn a few.

If that were the case, the event would be too boring.

Fortunately, not no one dared to challenge the Mo family.

To be precise, there are really a lot of people who dare to challenge the Mo family!

Even take out the ten meanings of the Mo family, and you can see the targeted and argumentative madness.

The most frustrated one also prepared a tirade to directly attack Moqiu, and he was thrown into the cell before he could finish his words.

The ink artist hadn't heard the wind yet, and the people who had listened to him were about to drown him.

Although the word is usually a little dejorative, today, the name of the Holy Master of Moqiu has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and many people in the Xia Dynasty grew up listening to Moqiu's story, and there is no room for insult or even slander.

It is a place to speak of morality and show one's own meritocracy, not to seek suicide.

Throwing it in prison is a kind of protection.

In addition to these people who want to be famous, want to go crazy, and do whatever it takes, there are not a few people who really have meritocracy skills.

And the reason why the sages of various countries really confirmed that the Xia Dynasty was not deliberately making a big scene, but only playing the real thing, was because the people who really launched a fierce attack on the Mo family were none other than the Xia Dynasty's own people.

Or both!

One is Xun Ke and the other is Zou Dan.

In the summer of the twenty-fourth year of the Xia Dynasty, with the help of Aoki Liquid, Xun Ke quickly completed the qi and blood obstacles, and was also lucky to be promoted to the realm of the grandmaster.

After being promoted to grandmaster, Xun Ke began to preach his own philosophy everywhere.

He takes the words "benevolence" and "righteousness", which is different from the morality of the Mo family, and his benevolence and righteousness are more in line with human nature, containing temperature, which is not as selfless as the iron face of the Mo family, but it is also quite promising.

According to an insider who refused to disclose his name, it was secretly spread that this grandmaster was still Mozi's original closed disciple!

Mozi's closed disciple, after becoming a grandmaster, the first thing he did was to jump against the Mo family!

Even if the truth itself should not have so many twists and turns, and it should not be the first to preset a position, it is impossible to stand that the people have an extremely strong concern about this kind of thing.

Especially after knowing that this is the same as the Mo family giant, he is also a grandmaster.

Grandmaster, in the eyes of many people, he is already second only to the emperor and under one person.

The two grandmasters do not agree in philosophy, or they are from the same school, and I don't know how many people want to see the excitement.

But in addition to the core concept of benevolence and righteousness, Xun Ke also advocates a concept that has caused countless people to frown, which is even more headache than facing the selflessness of the Mo family.

Xun Ke said: Human nature is evil.

Because of this, when the sages of various countries besieged the Mo family, they did not forget to bring him to scold.

No matter how treacherous and sinister people's hearts are, even if it was a great prayer that divided people into several ranks a few decades ago, no one dared to shout that human nature is evil.

For the real ruler, it is enough to know in his own heart and stand up and tell the people what is going on?

Aren't you asking for trouble for everyone?

And for those sages who have a realm and a pursuit, the ideal they have fought for all their lives is to establish a peaceful and prosperous world on earth, which is simply digging their roots, because their own ideas are established in accordance with the inherent goodness of human nature.

Agreeing with Xun Ke means denying all his efforts, which is unacceptable no matter what, and it is contrary to the universal concept at this time.

Everyone originally thought that a Mo family in the Xia Dynasty would be enough for people to use all their energy to deal with it, but after they came, they found that there were other big troubles waiting here!

The turmoil stirred up by Xun Ke seems to be even more eye-catching than the Mo family, and every day there are new people of insight who form a group to find Xun Ke to argue, and Xun Ke. All won.

It is not very appropriate to describe the debate as winning or losing, and it is more accurate to say that Xun Ke can often debate those who oppose him into speechlessness and walk away.

Of course, even so, they absolutely do not approve of the idea that human nature is inherently evil, and they hate it!

Compared with the Mo family's prosperity and Xun Ke's deviance, Zou Dan is much gentler, and even more high-end.

Zou Dan divides all things into yin and yang, believing that they are the two coordinated forces within things, which are the laws of generation that give birth to all things in heaven and earth.

The five elements are the five elements that are more embodied under yin and yang, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are all gathered together to form the whole of the world, and no one can get rid of them.

This concept is called together, which is the five elements of yin and yang.

In this way, it will still seem a bit abstract and even conceptual, and if you want to correspond to the present world, rather than a simple concept, you might as well understand it like this:

Yin represents the woman, the characteristics of weakness, and the things and phenomena that have these properties, and the yang represents the characteristics of the man, the characteristics of strength, and the things and phenomena that have these characteristics.

The basic content of the five elements of yin and yang can be bracketed by the eight characters of "opposite, mutual root, growth and transformation".

The yin is prosperous and the yang is declining, and the yin is declining, and the cycle is repeated.

What human nature is good and evil, what virtuous and treacherous, all go back a little, it is not a thing on the track at all, but directly aimed at the underlying logic of the universe.

No one can say he's right, and certainly no one can say he's wrong.

As long as Zou Dan can give a reasonable explanation and complete self-consistency, the doctrine can be established, unless no one can find evidence that cannot be refuted, but no one has done it.

This is a technique of seeing the small from the big, from the whole to the part, which is not understandable by ordinary people, and is not friendly to the people at the bottom, and is only widely circulated among students and sages in various countries, but it does not make any waves in the outside world - they can't understand it, and naturally they won't discuss it.

In addition to the two surprises brought by the Xia Dynasty, there is another existence that stirs up the storm in the city.

To be precise, it is aimed at the Mo family, and the firepower is full, which is simply the same as the Mo family, in contrast, Xun Ke also has to go back a little.

His name is Yang Zhu, and he is neither a person from the Xia Dynasty, nor a person from Daqi, Dayong, Daqing, or Dayue, but simply a Taoist priest who travels the world.

After traveling here, he heard about Moqiu's deeds, and heard that the Xia Dynasty was going to sit and talk about it, so he stayed here and promoted his own ideas.

What is the idea?

It can be abbreviated as "for me", "noble self", and "full fidelity", which is completely opposite to the Mohist love.

He advocated that people should be responsible only for themselves, in other words, selfishness.

Individuals sweep the snow in front of their own doors, and don't care about the frost on others.

As long as everyone is left alone, the world will become a better place.

The Mo family wants everyone to love both, which is very difficult.

But it is easy to understand that people love themselves by nature, and I am afraid that no one can argue with this.

In that case, why love?

If your love can reach the world of great harmony, can everyone love themselves?

There is no such reason!

And no matter how you think about it, it's much easier to love yourself than it is to love others.

So the Mo family hurry up and flash aside!

Wang Mang originally wanted to put some pressure on the Mo family, urging the Mo family to transform quickly, at least not to be so rigid.

I never thought that when someone from outside came up, he was ready to directly cut the roots of the Mo family, leaving no room at all.

One is self-interest, self-interest to the extreme is altruism, the other is altruism, everyone is altruistic.

There is no possibility of blending between each other's ideas, although they have the same path, but the paths are far from each other, and only the final realm has some similarities.

What's even more terrifying is that under this guy's concept, what kind of situation will the country itself be in?

This is not just preparing to overturn the Mo family, but preparing to even stop the imperial court.

Compared with Yang Zhu, even Xun Ke's human nature is evil, he seems quite amiable, even gentle.

So a lot of firepower was transferred to Yang Zhu's body.

But Yang Zhu is not an ordinary person.

He is a grandmaster himself, and his eloquence is quite good.

One person fights with words, fights the sages, and does not fall behind.

What's even more exaggerated is that the ink man was not convinced, and he asked him to theorize, and he actually persuaded the ink man to become his follower.

It was not that there were no ink people who left the Mo family on their own and returned to their own lives, but it was the first time that they changed their doors like this and directly embraced the opposite path of the Mo family!

The smell of gunpowder has been imperceptibly filled with it.

But the Mo family's giant bird Li Sheng, but he never made any moves, even if the ink returned to Yang, he never came forward to touch Yang Zhu.

But everyone knows that sooner or later, Yang Zhu will have to meet the Mo family giant.

Two completely different concepts, and even abducted the Mo family's supporters, how can it be possible if they don't collide with a little spark?

It is precisely for this reason that when the appointed day comes, the gate of the Tianxia School Palace is already crowded, rubbing shoulders and being airtight.

People who are truly capable of showing their talents are invited.

And some students who are not so capable and have not been invited do not want to miss this grand event, and would rather watch outside the Tianxia School Palace.

The debate inside will be transcribed by someone and posted as soon as possible, so it is quite important to grab a good position in order to be able to see it.

"The Summer Emperor has arrived~"

The crowd was divided, and Wang Mang came by the frame of the Son of Heaven.

For the first time, he made a special trip to observe and show the importance of talents.

Similarly, there are still many guards in the Tianxia School Palace who are wearing armor and hanging sharp weapons from their waists, and they are not all to ensure Wang Mang's safety, but what they need to do is to prevent those sages from fighting each other.

Yes, this kind of thing happens from time to time when you are reasonable, and when you talk about it, you will fight.

A better one hangs the lottery, and a little more ruthless one can't wait to die.

It fully demonstrates that the fist itself is also a truth.

After all, people's emotions are not always full of reason, and it is normal for blood to rise after a lifetime's hard work has been dissipated and argued to the point that it is useless.

As long as the people who disagree with me are dead, I am speaking the truth!

Of course, in addition to those guards, all the grandmasters of the Xia Dynasty also came, and there were other grandmasters from other countries who came to see the excitement.

They were mainly responsible for staring at Yang Zhu and Yu Lisheng.

If the grandmaster fights here, the impact will be too bad, and whether the Tianxia School Palace built with hard work can be kept is two words, and I don't know how many accidental injuries there will be, so we must prevent it.

As for the disgusting Yang Zhu, it is impossible to attack, this time he sat down and talked about it, just to explore the morality of the world, not to block the mouth of the people.

If you don't even let people speak, you will be killed if you go against the tune, then what is it about? Directly to a life and death platform, both high and low and life and death, the one who lives to the end is the one who is right.

It is precisely because of this that not only can they not hurt Yang Zhu, but they must even ensure Yang Zhu's safety, otherwise this grand event will become a joke and will be absolutely intolerable.

With Wang Mang's arrival, the atmosphere was obviously warm.

Countless cheers soared into the sky.

Wang Mang waved to the many students who were staying outside and were not allowed to enter, and then stepped into it.

He did not sit in the main seat, and he was by no means the protagonist today, but he sat in the same chair as a mere listener with many sages.

In the crowd, Wang Mang nodded quietly to a man sitting on the side, dressed in a green robe, with an extremely handsome face, which was regarded as a greeting.

When Wang Mang sat down, someone immediately ran to the stage and shouted: "Below, please invite the Mo family giant, Yu Lisheng to tell everyone about the righteousness of the Mo family, if there is any objection, you can raise your hand." ”

This grand meeting, known as the Four Saints in history, has finally kicked off.
