Pearl Volume XXXIV, the way of the Mohists

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Zhou Tianzi was cowardly and incompetent, and the princes of all parties rose up strongly, each of them strengthened, and wanted to win the Central Plains, and the world was constantly fighting.

This is true from country to country, and the same is true between academics.

At that time, there were many scholars, and there were hundreds of schools of thought. Among them, Confucianism, Mo, Law, Taoism, soldiers, celebrities, and Yin and Yang are the mainstays.

Celebrity: Good at sophistry, although no one in the world can speak, but the losers are all unconvinced, and there is no practical rhetoric, and gradually no one can use it.

Taoism: advocating non-action and pure cultivation, since Laozi, Zhuangzi, Liezi and other great sages, the rest of the talented people are all retreating to the countryside.

Soldiers: Conspiracy, Su Qin and Zhang Yi are in the text, and Sun Bin and Pang Juan are in the martial arts. It is a talent that is urgently needed on the battlefield of various countries, and it will not be at a disadvantage at any time.

The Yin-Yang family belongs to a metaphysical metaphysical theory, and it has been justified by various countries. Although they can create public opinion for the victors for a while, if they lose, they have no better theory to support them.

The main ideas of Mohist ism are: equal love between people, opposition to wars of aggression, advocating thrift and opposing extravagance and waste, attaching importance to inheriting the cultural wealth of predecessors, and mastering the laws of nature. It seems that contrary to the Yin-Yang Family, their theories are all scientific practice, but they believe in ghosts and gods more than the Yin-Yang Family. In their minds, there is no distinction between countries and only between strong and weak.

Their way of doing things is that they will help the weaker party when they ask for help.

In this way, they offend the strong country, and the weak country they help will become the object of their resistance after it becomes stronger.

Academically, they are in opposition to the others.

Legalists once said, "Confucianism uses literature to mess with the law, and chivalry uses martial arts to violate the ban."

This chivalry refers to the chivalrous deeds of the Mo family to prosper the world and eliminate the harm of the world.

But in the eyes of the Legalists at the time, their behavior was completely a kind of self-centered illegal behavior.

After the Warring States period, the Mo family has declined. The Qin State was strong with the study of Legalism and swept away Liuhe. When he arrived in the Western Han Dynasty, he respected Huang Lao Taoism in the early stage. In the later period, due to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's exclusive Confucian policy, changes in social mentality, and the hard training, strict rules and noble ideas of the Mohists themselves, which were not accessible to everyone, the Mohists basically disappeared after the Western Han Dynasty.

In the imperial court, it cannot become an official scholar, and it is difficult to have believers among the people.

Over time, these people develop radical thoughts.

They believe that those weak people in the rivers and lakes are neither righteous nor evil, but neutrals who are neither side nor have protection.

Thus, a neutral organization, the Mozun Mansion, was born.

However, due to the intolerance of good and evil, it is not dependent on the power of the imperial court. Over time, they were classified as outliers. The more this happens, the more extreme they become.

In the end, even the name was changed to "Demon Venerable Mansion".

In order to prevent ruining the reputation of the Mo family, even the martial arts they practiced were no longer the original martial arts of the Mo family, but the Yin and Yang family, which was also one of the hundred schools of the Warring States Period.

Perhaps, this is what they have preserved, the last dignity of the Mo family.

At the same time, in order to let the disciples remember that they are not tolerated by good and evil, these people never show their true faces, all of them are black clothes, black pants, black shoes, and black big hats. Of course, those who break into the martial arts naturally don't need to use these as disguises.

Now, standing in front of the two of them, it is such a dress.

For the stunned look of the two, the man in black had already guessed the reason with self-righteousness.

In his mind, this transaction was extremely secretive, so Feng Renyu didn't dare to come forward in person, nor did he tell anyone who came to the transaction.

The man in black's question was only symbolic than practical, because before the two of them could speak, he continued: "It seems that you don't know anything. But it doesn't matter, dead people, you don't need to know that much. ”

The implication is that he wants to kill.

Everyone, the process of generating ideas in their minds is different.

Some people have a whim after seeing something, and some people have an idea after experiencing something.

Others, it's a combination of the two. After experiencing some things, I have some ideas, and then when these thoughts converge in my mind, brew, and suddenly explode, I take action.

Obviously, the transaction of this Demon Venerable Mansion is the third type.

As early as in the Demon Venerable's mansion, he had a rebellious heart. It's just that because the Demon Venerable's position in the mansion is difficult to shake, the three Venerables all fell to him.

Among the twelve brakes, only the insect brake and the taste brake are his people, and the emperor brake and the divine brake remain neutral.

Therefore, if he wants to achieve the goal of sitting in the position of Demon Venerable, he must borrow external power.

Fortunately, he can wait and endure.

Endure the torment of suppressed desires, and wait for the opportunities brought about by the rapid changes of the times.

The opportunity finally came, a mysterious lobbyist, brought the jade pearl that made the world want to grab it, and found the Demon Venerable to trade.

There are two best ways to deal with such a hot potato: one is to resolutely refuse and get rid of all relationships, and the other is to kill people and seize things.

In such a situation, the other party did not dare to speak out, because once it spread, the unfavorable rumors of the Yongle Gang before would be confirmed.

But strangely, the Demon Venerable did not make the above two choices, but agreed to the deal. What made him even more excited was that the Demon Venerable still sent him to make a deal. It seems that all these years of careful efforts to win the trust of the Demon Venerable have not been in vain.

Receiving this task, his opportunity came.

As long as he kills all the people present during the transaction, and then fakes a few injuries, then he will frame the Yongle Gang and the Demon Gate with the Jade Pearl as bait, kill people and seize things, and weaken the strength of the Demon Mansion.

When the time comes, if this news is disseminated, then all three parties will have to deal with external forces, and there will be no way to confirm whether his words are true or false.

From the moment he received the assignment, he began to plan.

Until now, his killing intent has finally been revealed.

☯☯☯☯☯

In the secret room, Zhu Changle, who was waiting for the result, asked the person beside him curiously: "How did you convince the Demon Venerable to agree to this deal?"

The man said: "It's very simple, use a deception." ”

"Don't tell me your deceptive theories, I'll hear you tell you the specifics. ”

There is no way, since Zhu Changle wants to know, that person can only "confess with him".

Speaking is a very skillful knowledge, which not only convinces Zhu Changle, but also avoids some unnecessary content.

But he said that the person, using his connections and ability, found the main altar of the Demon Venerable Mansion.

Contrary to what most people think, the Demon Venerable Mansion was not built in that gloomy and desolate cave, but in a small valley with beautiful mountains and rivers.

If it weren't for the fact that there was not a large mansion in front of you, but a small thatched house, you would definitely think that you had come to the legendary Peach Blossom Spring.

Don't look at the elegant environment here, there is a scene of autumn harvest everywhere, but in fact, it is full of murderous opportunities. The people of the Demon Venerable Mansion are all farmers in peacetime and generals in wartime.

As soon as he stepped into the valley, two sharp arrows were fired at his face.

The man leaned, and the arrow grazed the tip of his nose and landed on a nearby tree.

Seeing that the other party took the lead in attacking, the person who came was not surprised, but just hugged his fist and said: "In Xia Yongle Gang, the envoy Ji Tianxia, come to visit." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw several people jumping out from behind the boulder to the north of the big tree, each holding a weapon, aiming at the world.

These people are burly, naked, and look at Ji Tianxia strangely.

Everyone in the world knows that the Yongle Gang belongs to the evil way and has a close relationship with the Demon Gate. And their Demon Venerable Mansion is the head of neutrality.

Although both forces are demons, they are incompatible.

I don't know how many times the Twin Demons have fought in the past.

This self-proclaimed Yongle Gang Ji Tian came to the Demon Venerable Mansion, is he sick in the brain?

"I'm not sick in the head. ”

Saying what everyone thinks in one sentence makes them nervous for a while.

"Please put aside your hostility, I'm here to make a deal, and I'm sorry for you to report it. ”

Several people looked at each other for a moment, and then one person went to report to the top, and the others continued to look at Ji Tianxia.

And Ji Tianxia, he doesn't care about the hostility of the other party, and enjoys the surrounding scenery by himself.

The valley here is a natural Bagua array, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but also can change continuously according to the change of time, and there are various vegetation around it to cover up, which is difficult for ordinary people to find.

The mystery of this is far better than the gossip array that Zhuge Wuhou temporarily arranged to besiege Lu Xun back then.

If you don't understand the mystery of this formation, you will be trapped in it and in a dilemma.

However, this is indeed a rare and extremely intelligent person in the world, and after closing his eyes and thinking about it, he has already seen the secret.

When I opened my eyes, the reporter hadn't come yet, but I faintly heard footsteps.

After a while, I saw the reporter leading a man to come.

As soon as the man arrived, he pointed to the world and asked the people, "Is he the spy?" Without waiting for the people below to answer, he ordered, "Tie me up." ”

Ji Tianxia smiled, but did not resist, and let the gang tie himself up and blindfold him.

In this way, Ji Tianxia was led by everyone to the Demon Venerable Mansion Tower.

Although the eyes are covered, the world is known to be reasonable, and everything is clear. Even without looking at the roads around him, he knows how to walk.

After walking for a while, I heard the people in my ears shouting, "Stay here, and the master will come to you in a moment." ”

After speaking, the footsteps disappeared, and there was no movement around.

It seems that these people are going to cool him here first.

Do you want to kill his arrogance, or discuss the purpose of his coming here and how to deal with it.

But for these, Ji Tianxia didn't care about it, what he wanted to think about was how he should face that enemy in the future when the four universes were parallel.
