Chapter 593 The Frightened Bole Jun

The setting sun was slanting down, the golden color was like blood, and the hustle and bustle of Bole City gradually returned to tranquility.

"Corporal" Cao He had dinner and sat quietly for a while. When it was getting dark, he got up and went out in a hurry.

When he arrived at the outer room, he looked around sharply, until he confirmed that there was no abnormality, then he suddenly quickened his pace and turned into a nearby alley, lowering his head from time to time, for fear of being noticed.

After circling the neighborhood for a full circle and changing directions continuously, he pushed open the door of a big house and stepped into the hall, with his back bent and his steps light, worried about disturbing others and breaking the atmosphere here.

Such actions were not only because of fear of becoming the target of public criticism, but also subconsciously. The lectures of Mr. Su and others made people admire them involuntarily.

The hall was covered with straw mats, and all kinds of people were kneeling, some dressed as scholars, some dressed as retainers, some wandering warriors, and some ordinary people. They had different identities but were equally focused, and vaguely revealed a bit of piety.

At the top, it was Meng Qi's turn to give a lecture today, and he was talking about "Love each other and benefit each other".

"Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and treat all things as straw dogs. It is not tyrannical, but there is no difference in affection, and everyone is treated equally." Meng Qi racked his brains to improve the concept of "universal love", and even used the content of the "Tao Te Ching" that has not appeared in this world.

"Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and treat all things as straw dogs... There is no difference in affection..." As a scholar, Cao He savored this sentence carefully, and the more he savored it, the more profound it felt. It was simple but pointed directly to the essence of heaven and earth!

Mr. Su is really a great talent. He not only has a deep understanding of worldly affairs and the accumulated evils of the world in his heart, but also can peek into the way of heaven... Cao He sat down quietly, not daring to make any noise.

He noticed that the innermost circle included Zhao Bai, Wang Qi and other strong men and a dozen warriors and scholars with solemn expressions, and nodded secretly. Is this the "Mohist" who followed the gentlemen?

"In today's world, the noble despise the humble, the rich humiliate the poor, and the strong bully the weak. Is there no other way of being compassionate? This goes against the will of heaven and will be punished by ghosts and gods. It will be difficult to ascend to heaven after death. Therefore, everyone must have a compassionate heart, not only love themselves, but also love others..." Meng Qi couldn't help but say, "Moreover, among the princes and nobles, there are many whose ancestors became gods and immortals during the war against King Zhou. Before that, they were all civilians. Some got the opportunity to be taught the Dharma, take elixirs, or make great contributions and be praised by ghosts and gods. Are gods, Buddhas, immortals, saints, kings, princes, generals, and ministers of different species?"

Are gods, Buddhas, immortals, saints, kings, princes, generals, and ministers of different species? Cao He and others felt their scalps numb when they heard it, and their bodies felt as if they were struck by lightning. They felt fear and comfort at the same time.

Meng Qi stopped talking and said, "As long as you study hard and practice for the benefit of the world, you will be praised by ghosts and gods sooner or later, become an immortal, a god, a king or a duke. The destiny is in people's hands, not predetermined, this is 'non-destiny'."

This excited the people present. Among Mr. Su's "Ten Words of True Secrets", the word they liked and were most willing to listen to was "non-destiny". It was connected with Tianzhi and Minggui to form a whole. As the basis of respecting the virtuous and respecting the same, it was the premise of loving all and not attacking.

Meng Qi seemed to be sitting upright, talking freely, and having a plan in mind, but he was actually trembling with fear. The nobles in this world were too powerful, even the immortals, gods and Buddhas, and he could not defeat them for the time being, so he had to reform them and not point directly at them, but he had to be consistent and form his own system, which was really difficult.

Just like before, although Meng Qi argued that gods, Buddhas, immortals, and saints, kings, princes, generals, and ministers are of the same species, on the one hand, he took it as the basis of universal love, but on the other hand, he affirmed the efforts of the ancestors of the princes and nobles, acknowledging that they were descendants of immortals, descendants of gods, and had the legitimacy of ruling and a temporarily superior status, and only expressed the "upward channel".

His face was serious: "Seeking benefits and avoiding harm, everyone has the instinct to protect themselves, which is understandable. However, when interacting, we must uphold the heart of universal love and conduct it in a way that is beneficial to both parties. Only when both parties are beneficial can universal love last for a long time..."

Meng Qi's words were not fast, but Cao He and others felt that they were "overwhelmed" because every sentence was profound and thought-provoking, but if they savored it carefully, they would miss the following words. They just wished they had ten heads!

It was almost midnight, and Meng Qi tapped the chime next to him:

"That's all for today."

Cao He and others hurriedly got up, thanked and sent Mr. Su off respectfully, and felt that their hearts were satisfied, their spirits were fulfilled, they had gained a lot, and they had unprecedented pleasure.

Just when Cao He was about to leave, he suddenly saw a person standing in the corner next to him. His pupils suddenly contracted and his body subconsciously wanted to avoid him.

But the person had already seen him and greeted him with a smile: "Brother Cao, are you here to listen to Mr. Su's lecture?"

Cao He forced a smile and said, "I never thought I would meet Mr. Zhou."

This is Zhou Xin, Bole Jun's counselor. He actually appeared here!

Zhou Xin laughed and said, "Mr. Su has the world in his mind. I don't know how many carriages he has learned. He often has profound ideas. How can I not listen?"

"Besides, I am also a commoner. I agree with Mr. Su's words from the bottom of my heart.

Cao He exchanged a few words with him and said goodbye cautiously. After Zhou Xin left Zhao's house, he went straight to Bole Jun's mansion.

Agreeing is agreeing, but it does not mean supporting!

Bole Jun put his hands behind his back and walked slowly. Zhou Xin was talking about the Mohist doctrine he had heard in the past few days.

When it comes to the "Shangtong" that the action viewpoint is unified with the superior and the leader adheres to the will of heaven, Bole Jun couldn't help but clapping his hands:

"Good, good! They are indeed talented, have great ambitions, understand ghosts, value virtue, and value unity. They all hit the nail on the head. It makes me want to not build a tomb, but to seek a place in the afterlife. In the past, our ancestors had made great contributions and were deified in the flesh. With such financial resources, why not seek great things? "

But when Zhou Xin recounted the story of universal love and non-fate, Mr. Bole's face turned slightly gloomy, and he thought to himself: "They are still too unrealistic, with complex people's hearts, endless greed, and the most serious selfish thoughts. What about those in the upper position?" Can you love both? This must be controlled by ghosts, but ghosts and gods also have selfish motives! And no gods have come to earth for many years..."

"However, in order to win over talents, recruit people, and fill the fiefdom, it is not impossible to adopt a universal attitude, just like the courtesy and virtuous corporal I am showing now."

He nodded gently and motioned for Zhou Xin to continue.

"Love others all together, and do not use your own selfish interests to start a war that will bring disaster to all living beings..." Zhou Xin said while peeking at Bole Jun.

Sure enough, Mr. Bole's face changed slightly and he said in a deep voice: "It's ridiculous, arrogant, and unrealistic. If you don't attack other countries and plunder people, land, and treasures, how can you strengthen yourself? And if you don't grow stronger, in other countries How can one survive by just "defending" when they are growing stronger? You can ask him tomorrow, how can he make all the princes love each other and not attack? "

This is simply an impossible ideal!

"Yes." Zhou Xin was prepared and remained calm.

…………

The next day, Zhao Heng gave a lecture at Zhao Bai's house.

When it came time to ask questions, Zhou Xin stood up immediately, repeated Bolejun's question, and finally said:

"Please also ask Mr. Zhao to answer my questions."

This problem also made Zhao Bai, Bai Song and others become solemn. Indeed, relying solely on universal love and not attack, unless it can influence everyone, will be in danger when others attack and plunder rapidly.

Zhao Heng frowned. This was the key to his lack of confidence in Mohist theory. For other content, as long as he entangled helpers and formed a force, in order to treat the virtuous corporal and recruit sages, the ambitious and sensible princes or nobles would at least pretend to act. , To implement the move, if it lasts for three months, it will be considered a success.

It seems that only a small country like that can do it... He thought to himself.

Seeing his silence, Zhou Xin said again:

"Please also ask Mr. Zhao to answer my questions."

Zhao Heng racked his brains and thought hard. Just when he wanted to send a message to Meng Qi, the four people who had been listening behind the screen already had the answer.

Meng Qi stood up, stepped out, and said loudly: "We will not fight unless we are attacking or right, but we will not engage in meaningless wars, and we will not destroy the common people for our own benefit.

"To bring benefits to the world and eliminate harm to the world are to 'kill' and 'attack'. Therefore, in the past, King Zhou was unruly and King Wu punished the people for their crimes, which was also 'non-attack'."

"In today's world, disputes among princes are the source of turmoil. If a virtuous king takes it as his own duty to unify the world, eliminate all countries, write with the same text, and drive with the same track, end the troubled times, and restore peace to the world, wouldn't it be 'righteous'?"

Since then, the Mohist theory has finally adapted to the current world of gods!

Isn’t it “righteous” to destroy all the countries and unify the world? Zhou Xin felt his mind buzzing, and could no longer hear any other words. He was in a daze. He didn't know how to leave the Zhao Mansion and pay homage to Mr. Bole.

In today's world, no one has ever had the ambition to dominate the world!

No, it should be said that since the beginning of the country, it has been "natural law" to enfeoff princes!

Mr. Bole was holding a bronze wine cup in his hand. After hearing Zhou Xin's words, his eyes widened, his breathing became thicker, his hands loosened, and the wine cup fell to the ground with a clang.

Destroy all countries and unify the world, with the same writing and the same track?

He suddenly became a little enthusiastic. Even though he had lofty ambitions, in the past, he only thought about attracting followers and waiting for the opportunity to become the overlord of the world, just like the "Six Hegemons" before him, or even replace the Zhou royal family and become the emperor, but he never I thought about annihilating all the countries and becoming the true unifier of the world.

Because it has never happened before!

Taking a deep breath, he suddenly felt inexplicable panic, and his face became solemn: "Please ask them to leave Bole tomorrow, and they are not allowed to stay!"

I am still Lord Bole, not the lord of Han. Even if I am the lord of Han, these remarks are the enemy of the world!

Zhou Xin was stunned for a moment. Seeing that his master was firm in attitude, he did not dare to ask any more questions and hurriedly left.

In the quiet room, Mr. Bole pondered for a long time. He suddenly stood up and said to the air: "They have been asking about Huanguo a lot these days. They are afraid that they have the intention to go there, so they dare to speak frankly..."

"It is not convenient for me to use such talents, nor can I let others use them!"

His tone became serious, implying murderous intent: "I am Lord Bole of Corporal Li Xian. It is not convenient for me to do anything about this matter. Please go to the Xiaogan Cave in Yuxu Mountain and ask them to come forward!"

"Yes, Lord." A deep voice sounded inexplicably in the room where no one else was. (A great pie-in-the-sky event, cool mobile phones are waiting for you!
