Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 606: Mo family’s death~!

I have to say that Li Zexuan's heart is really big enough, he wants to directly earn the Mo family capable people, all of them~!

Of course, it’s no wonder that Mo Huai’s ability, especially in astronomy, physics, and optics, is indeed the perfect teacher for Li Zexuan, who has just built Yanhuang Academy. ~! With the addition of Mo Huai, his future workload at Yanhuang Academy will be greatly reduced~!

After Li Zexuan said that, Mo Zhong and Mo Yun both had their eyes flashed, and there was a trace of hope on their faces. They said that they were better than the core disciples of the Mo family, but their work was no different from that of a farmer. They usually need to do it. Farmers, what else do they eat? What to drink? Only during the slack in the farming will they return to the Mohist school and receive organizational training or other arrangements.

They are all capable, but because of the identity of the Mohist, they must stay in a desolate place and engage in hard work. It didn’t matter if they continued like this, but they came here for the appointment with Mo Huai and saw After the prosperity of Chang'an City, their hearts were shaken~!

The suffering of Mozhe is something that disciples of other schools can't realize, but now Li Zexuan's words make them start thinking about things, why can't they rely on their own ability to make their family live a good life What~?

However, although they think so in their hearts, they will not easily say it. The organizational discipline has been deeply engraved in their hearts through the years of the Mozi career~!

Mo Huai frowned, he straightened up and stared at Li Zexuan seriously:

"The kindness of Lord Li Jue, the old man took it with my heart~! But as an ink person, you must wear a fur coat, wear a slap as your clothes, day and night, and take self-sufferment as the ultimate~! Blindly covet the pleasure of the world, What qualifications do you have to become a Mohist~? The old man promises you to become a teacher at Yanhuang Academy, which has violated the law of my Mohist school. I will no longer be qualified to lead the world Mohist and carry forward Mohism~! Therefore, the old man must be a giant. Quit~! As for the other ink artists, I advise you not to waste your time~!"

Mo Huai said, the faces of Mo Zhong and Mo Yun showed seven points of shame and three points of regret in an instant, and the two of them lowered their heads and said nothing.

Li Gang frowned and said, "Brother Mo, you are confused~! The Mo family has hundreds of thousands of disciples from the heyday of the Pre-Qin Dynasty to less than a hundred disciples today. You didn't think about the reason for this~? Do you think Is the decline of the Mohist school only due to the suppression of the emperors of various dynasties~?"

Mo Huai was a little uncomfortable: "Isn't it~? If it wasn't for Emperor Wu to ban all the schools and dominate Confucianism, why did my Mo School end up where it is now~?"

When Li Gang heard the words, he said with great pain: "Absurd~! I didn’t expect you, brother Mo, to see the real reason for the decline and fall of the Mo family~! Not to mention, the old man will wake you up~! The authorities are fans, the bystanders are clear, the old man Although he studied Confucianism, today, the old man does not help Confucianism or the Mohist school. The old man will analyze it with you as an outsider~!

You said that the decline of your Confucianism was due to the suppression of the emperors of various dynasties. But since Emperor Wu deposed a hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism, why did the Mo School, which is also known as the most prominent school of Confucianism, decline rapidly, while the Taoism and Law two schools, Can survive in the cracks of Confucianism to this day~? Have you ever thought about the root cause~? "

Li Gang’s remarks directly revealed the root cause of the decline of the Mo family. Mo Huai couldn’t help but suffocated. His face paled for a while, but Li Zexuan listened carefully to these old things. Obviously Li Gang knew better than him. It’s good to take this opportunity to learn.

Li Gang didn’t wait for Mo Huai’s answer, and continued: “In the eyes of the old man, the reason why the Mo family has fallen into this situation is because your Mo family’s requirements for the children of the family are too harsh~! Why can Sage Kong “not get tired of eating” Essence, you never tire of fine", but you ink people can only "dress in fur, wear stumbling as clothes, day and night, take self-suffering as the ultimate"?

Perhaps at this time because you have your beliefs, but who said that people with beliefs cannot rely on their own hands to live a good life with plenty of food and clothing~? Could it be that living in dire straits and hot waters every day can make you ink artists superior to the world~? "

I have to say that Li Gang’s remarks pointed to the point, and Li Zexuan couldn’t help but clap his hands~! It makes sense~!

Of the hundred schools of pre-Qin scholars, the four schools that have the greatest influence are naturally Confucianism, Mohism, Taoism, and Law. But after the Qin and Han dynasties, their destiny began to diverge: Confucianism became the orthodox and mainstream of Chinese culture; Legalism, because of its special nature, dominated the temple politics of the authoritarian court for two thousand years; Taoism accepted believers and occupied Civil society has become the spiritual home of Youren hermit.

Only the Mohist school, after a glorious moment, whether as a doctrine or as an organization, it disappeared and disappeared in the long river of history.

Why did the Mo Family end up so sad? Is the Mohist's thinking not clever enough? Certainly not, the Mohist ideological system is full of great humanitarianism and scientific spirit~IndoMTL.com~ Even from the perspective of modern people in the 21st century, it is still so shining.

In addition to the external cause of "removing a hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism," the demise of the Mohist school has its own internal reasons: if a person wants to become a loyal follower of the Mohist school, he must have a strong spirit of sacrifice and dedication, and he must have an attitude towards everyone. The heart of fraternity, but not personal feelings.

So, "Zhuangzi·Tianxia" criticized Mohist school: "It is also diligent in life, and its death is thin, its way is big; it makes people worry, makes people sad, and it is difficult to do it. I fear that it may not be the way of a saint. , Against the heart of the world, the world is unbearable. Although Mozi is alone in doing his job, how can the world be! Leaving the world, his destiny is far away!"

In contrast, being a Taoist disciple is much happier. The goal of Taoism is to become immortals. This is a beautiful wish that can attract a large number of believers. And for Taoism, especially the long history of Zhengyi, there are not too many regulations on abstinence, and Fangzhongshu is even a kind of fairy family secret technique.

As a religion from the world, although Buddhism requires abstinence, monks can enjoy spiritual satisfaction while abstinence, and thus regard all suffering as a raft to the other side of happiness. Because of this "chicken soup for the soul," devout Buddhist disciples can ignore the physical hardship and pursue the metaphysical Zen pleasure.

The Mohist thoughts of universal love, non-attack, virtuousness, loyalty, non-fate, non-music, festival, burial... these thoughts are not enough to become the foundation of the Mohist disciples’ soul beliefs. And if it is not based on a firm belief, the life of hard and abstinence will not attract fresh blood to join the Mohist school, and the number of Mohists in the world will only decrease~!

This is the inner reason for the decline of the Mohist school~!
