Chapter 301: The Mo Family

The little Taoist priest said: "What about the Mohist organization, what do they believe in, what is the composition of their organization, and what kind of people are most of their members?"

Doll said: "That is, there were so many philosophical schools of thought at that time, and I didn't see any other schools of thought have their own fixed organizations, how come their Mo family has its own upright organization." Even our young master Nangong and Brother Maitreya are just a small and little-known folk group under the Legalist school. There is also the pylorus handed down by our Brother Turtle and their ancestor of the King of Guigu, isn't it just obscure and nameless. Why was their Mo family unique at that time and able to have its own fixed organization?"

Xiao Qingfeng said: "This is indeed inevitably related to the environment of the times at that time, you must know that Mozi, the founder of the Mo family, was the only philosopher and thinker who was born as a peasant at that time. Most of the founders of the other philosophical schools were from some aristocratic backgrounds at that time, so later generations understood it in this way. It is precisely because Mozi's background is relatively humble, and if he wants to truly expound and propagate his own doctrines and ideas, he must make greater efforts and sacrifices than others. Perhaps only in this way will some of his academic ideas be recognized and affirmed by the society at that time. Therefore, he first conquered and united a large number of people with his academic thoughts, formed a fairly tight group organization, and then expanded the influence and persuasiveness of his academic ideas through the uncompromising implementation and implementation of these people. ”

Jing Xin said: "Yes, this Mozi did use this method to quickly stand out among the hundreds of schools of thought at that time, and became the most influential philosophical school at that time. One of the most famous examples of that year was that Mozi won the simulated offensive and defensive battle with the Gongyi Ban (Luban), and successfully prevented the King of Chu from attacking the Song Dynasty, and his reputation has since been shocking to the world. Of course, later generations only knew that it was the siege equipment developed by Mozi at that time, which was better than the siege equipment of the Gongyi Ban (Luban), and thought that it was just a paper battle between two skilled craftsmen. But most people don't know that the offensive and defensive equipment that the two of them studied separately did play a great role, but the most decisive of them was the group of dead soldiers under Mozi who swore to serve their lives, that is, the people of later generations called Mo. ”

Xiao Qingfeng said: "The founder of the Mo family is called Mo Zhai, a native of the Song State during the Warring States Period, one says that he is from Luyang, and the other is from Tengguo (now Tengzhou, Shandong). His main academic ideas roughly include ten propositions: Jianai (equal love between people), non-aggression (opposition to wars of aggression), Shangxian (breaking the hierarchy and employing meritocracy), Shangtong (unifying the standard and justifying the name), Tianzhi (following the laws of nature and acting according to the statute), Ming Ghost (believing in the existence of ghosts and gods and being vigilant against the monarch), Feile (opposing the enjoyment of sound and sex), Fei Ming (opposing the enjoyment of sound and sex), Fei Ming (opposing the existence of fate and not believing in the arrangement of fate), thrift (advocating economy and opposing extravagance and waste), and Jie Fu (opposing thick burial). Of course, these are the ideas that the Mohist organization must believe in later. ”

Taking the mineral water handed over by the doll, Xiao Qingfeng took a symbolic sip, and then continued: "As for the Mohist organization founded by Mozi, it is an extremely disciplined academic group, the supreme leader of the Mohist family is called 'Juzi', and the members of the Mohist family are called 'Mozi', passed down from generation to generation, and all Mozi must obey Juzi's command and absolutely obey Juzi's guidance. The discipline of the Mo family is strict, even very harsh, according to legend, 'the law of the Mo, the murderer dies, and the wounder is punished', even if it is Juzi himself or his close family, it must be strictly followed, without the slightest ambiguity. In a certain sense, the Mohists belong to a kind of group with religious beliefs, and their cohesion and execution are very strong. ”

The doll said, "Then who are their so-called ink masters?"

Xiao Qingfeng said: "Most of the ink artists are from the lower strata of society, and most of them are laborers with a certain amount of knowledge, but not all of them are illiterate lower-class people. Although they live a very hard life on weekdays, they take the benefits of the world and eliminate the harm of the world as their own responsibility, and they can even truly 'go to the soup and fire and die without spinning'. To put it in layman's terms, that is to say, the Moists bear hardships and stand hard work, are strict with themselves, and regard the maintenance of justice and morality as an unshirkable responsibility. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Qingfeng paused slightly, and then continued: "In addition, at that time, according to their functions, ink scholars were generally divided into two categories: those who engaged in debate were called 'ink debate', and those who engaged in martial arts were called 'ink warriors'. However, in the later period, the Mohists slowly divided into two branches: one focused on the study of epistemology, logic, geometry, geometric optics, statics and other disciplines, and was called 'Mohist Post-Studies' (also known as 'Later Mohists'); ”

The lone wolf said: "Okay, about some academic things about the Mojia organization in the official historical materials, Brother Qingfeng, they have already explained it to you roughly. Due to the time constraints, I will now continue to tell you about the later evolution of the Mohist organization in some wild historical notes. Especially the heavenly killing organization we talked about today, and some of the hidden stories behind the peculiar tattoo patterns, as well as their internal connections with the later Mohist organization. ”

It turned out that after the Western Han Dynasty, the Mohist organization in the real sense had indeed basically disappeared, and there was no more news about them. It was not until the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, when fighting against foreign invasions, that their figures reappeared in the public eye.

But this time it was just a flash in the pan, and soon disappeared completely from people's vision. Later, some researchers believed that their short-lived Mojia team at that time should have all died in the battle with the Qing soldiers, so that there was no news of them later.

As for the later period of the Anti-Japanese War, it is said that some people pretended to be Mohist organizations to carry out some secret assassination activities, but there was no real evidence to prove that they were the real Mohist organizations, so many people thought that this was not credible, but some anti-Japanese people at that time pretended to be mysterious and pretended to be Mohist organizations, in order to build momentum and expand influence.

But more than ten years ago, a senior agent of the National Security Bureau unexpectedly found a very strange thread-bound ancient book in an extremely secret cave in the mountains. After the things recorded in this thread-bound ancient book were completely deciphered and understood, many people were surprised, and even caused quite a shock.

It turns out that this ancient book of threads clearly records the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the once short-lived Mohist organization, the final ending and subsequent evolution.

At that time, the Mojia team was indeed killed and wounded in a fierce battle against the Qing soldiers, and most of the Moshi were killed one after another, and finally their leader Juzi was under the cover of the death of his Mo, and took the only two remaining disciples to fight desperately out of the encirclement and fled into the mountains.

Since then, the seriously injured Mo family has taken these two disciples and lurked in a hidden cave in the deep mountains. It wasn't until a few years later, when this great man was dying, that one of his disciples should be released and let him go far away to find another way.

And let another disciple who voluntarily stayed, and closed their last so-called

The Hidden Spirit Secret Mansion was buried with him with this ancient Mojia organization.

From then on, the Mohist organization in the true sense of the word completely disappeared with the death of the last Mohist giant. Of course, no one really knows what he thinks about why the last Mojia giant at that time did this, why he personally ordered to completely end this ancient Mojia organization, and even his disciple who was exiled couldn't understand it.

It is estimated that only he himself, or the disciple who volunteered to accompany him to the funeral in the end, can truly understand.

But the disciple who was exiled was very unwilling, and many years later, he himself actually re-established a mysterious association.

It's just that because the last Mo family giant once made him make a heavy oath, he will no longer be allowed to do anything in the name of the Mo family in the name of the Mo family, and he can no longer even admit that he is the descendant of the Mo family organization. Therefore, as a last resort, he had to start a new business and create another group organization.

It's just that he has been deeply influenced by Mohist thought since he was a child, and although he is unconventional and starts anew, he still can't get rid of the original things that have long been ingrained in him.

From the name of his group, the Short Clothes Society, it can be seen that he is still secretly adhering to some of the ideas of the Mo family.

Not only that, but even the purpose of this short clothing society is also an extension of some of the ideas in the Mohist thought of the past, and they clearly proposed: "Respect the will of heaven, promote the good and eliminate the evil, and the ghosts and gods, promote the good and punish the evil." ”

And it is especially obvious that all their members must have a tattoo on the upper end of their left arm, wearing a linen shirt and a short coat of Mozi's upper body. This is also an extremely special symbol of theirs, and perhaps this is also their inheritance and remembrance in another sense.

Of course, as for the upper body portrait of this Mozi, whether there is really an ancient version of the portrait, or whether they made it up by their own imagination, it is not known.

It's just that the leader of this short-clothed society no longer dares to call himself Juzi, but changes his name to the Netherworld Ghost King, and his subordinates are called ghost pawns. From these titles, it can be seen that this short clothes society has been different from the traditional Mohist organization to a certain extent, and they have become the kind of secret society on the rivers and lakes.

And from these simple names of theirs, it can also be seen that although this outgoing disciple, although he still has not completely departed from the basic theory of the Mo family, he is already in a certain sense. From a complete philosophical system at the beginning, it has gradually become an explanation of a simple proposition.

When the lone wolf said this, the doll couldn't help but ask: "In this way, hasn't this short-clothes club become a secret organization in a sense, and what is the difference between it and those Qinggang, Hongmen, and Elders' Association back then." ”

Lone Wolf said: "Yes, the nature of this short clothing society is indeed as you said, and it is not fundamentally different from those folk secret societies that appeared in a specific period, but they are still more or less influenced by the early Mojia organizations. ”

The doll said: "Brother Wolf, what is the situation with the ancient book you just talked about, what is the situation with the ancient book found in some mysterious cave, it can't be the disciple who founded the Short Clothes Society back then, he left it by himself." ”

Lone wolf said: "This is really not, according to the careful research of relevant departments, that ancient book should be something from the Republic of China." ”

The doll said: "Then who is the author of this ancient book, can't it be the leader of the short clothes club in the early years of the Republic of China, and the ghost king himself wrote it." ”
