Zhou Chen turned his head and looked sideways, and saw a tall man in rough clothes and bare feet, standing two feet away. This man is about forty years old, with a thick and ancient face, a vast sky, a pair of eyes as deep as the sea, revealing the light of wisdom, and his hands are particularly thick, as if he is used to asceticism. Zhou Chen bowed and said, "Thank you, Mr. Mo, for taking me in." His thanks were not for himself, but for Xia Ji. After leaving Xiapu, in just one day, there should be pursuers behind him. Zhou Chen turned around and fought back a few waves, but the people behind him still gathered more and more, and Xia Ji didn't know how to do it. Martial arts brought her some inconvenience, until she met Mr. Mo who lived in seclusion here. Zhou Chen and Mr. Mo hit it off at first sight. After several trials, he felt that Mr. Mo was an upright gentleman, so he left Xia Ji here temporarily while he returned to continue dealing with the pursuers. Mr. Mo smiled faintly and said: "I, Mo Zhai, have been traveling around all over the world in my life. I have been thinking about one or two issues these days, so I am living here together. It is fate that I happened to meet you." Zhou Chen said: "Mr. I am lucky enough to meet you." Mo Zhai said: "No, no! Originally, I saw that you were full of murderous intent, and many people must have died at your hands. I didn't want to help you, but I wanted to get along with you. "I think you have a beautiful mind and are a rare talent, but I feel sorry for you, so I don't want to help you a little bit. You don't have to thank me." These words were not polite, but Mo Zhai said them in a natural way. His majestic demeanor makes people feel that this is a matter of course. Zhou Chen was not angry when he heard this, but just said: "That said. I am still grateful in my heart, but I don't agree with one thing. Sir, you pay too much attention to appearances. Those who kill a lot are not necessarily bad people, and their hands are not stained with blood. Those who are angry may not be good people. " Mo Zhai smiled faintly. Zhou Chen felt that this man gave people a sense of detachment. Even his words and smiles were tolerant and peaceful, without any excessive demeanor. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart that the Mo family's saw was indeed not a simple character. Mo Zhai looked at Zhou Chen deeply. His eyes were like two bright lights, seemingly able to see through all the sorrow and joy in Zhou Chen's heart. Mo Zhai said: "If you can defend the law with a sword, no matter how many people you kill, it will be gratifying. But now you are just doing it for your own selfishness." He turned his head and glanced at Xia Ji beside him. Then he continued: "Everyone has his own standards and principles. Therefore, the Tao of big countries becomes their excuse to invade small countries, and the Tao of big families becomes the reason to bully small families. The strong and wise oppress the foolish, and people The conflict with others is that everyone is a different individual with different standards and principles." After a pause, Mo Zhai said: "The so-called etiquette held high by various countries today is actually full of contradictions, ignorance and selfishness. Looking for trouble, etiquette and righteousness are actually just fifty steps and a hundred steps apart." Zhou Chen retorted with a smile: "Etiquette and righteousness are the source of all order in today's society. Without etiquette and righteousness, we would not be the same. Returning to the world of beasts, and everything in this world is about the weak and the strong, doesn't Mr. Mo know that the cycle of heaven has its own truth? " Zhou Chen actually wanted to say that if people don't do it for themselves, heaven and earth will destroy them, but he felt that this was a bit arrogant and unreasonable. There are too many loopholes to show your superiority. Mo Zhai said solemnly: "What are the so-called etiquette and justice? Why is killing one person a capital crime, but killing thousands of people in a war of aggression is rewarded? Or even praised? Why are plundering other people's treasures, chickens and dogs called thieves, and Those who seize other people's cities, towns and countries are called famous generals and heroes?" Zhou Chen fell into thought. This is something that has happened every day since the beginning of history, but it is as natural as breathing and no one has ever mentioned it. Come out and question. Mo Zhai continued: "Why do most of the people have to live frugally and even die of hunger and cold, so that the ruler can indulge in extravagance? Why should the power of rule be continued by one family for generations, no matter how cruel their descendants are? Why should a nobleman Why should a living person be killed and buried with him? Why should a person's descendants pretend to be mourning within three years after his death? What is the purpose of all these morals and customs? Besides, there are more than tens of millions of people in the world. Aren't they the real strong ones because of their strength? How can those nobles prey on them? But it's just the other way around. The nobles are at the top, while the poor people have nothing to eat and are oppressed every day. Why is this? "Well, discussing universal love and non-aggression with a Mohist patriarch is purely selfish. Looking for trouble, Zhou Chen felt dizzy and his head was as big as a bucket. "What you said is really thought-provoking, I can learn from you." Zhou Chen quickly surrendered and did not want to listen to the other party's long story anymore.?Discussion. Mo Zhai had a look of unfinished expression on his face. He felt that he still had many thoughts that he had not expressed yet. However, Zhou Chen's "abandonment of weapons and surrender" made it difficult for him to continue to pursue and fight fiercely. After all, the core ideas of universal love and non-aggression quite a bit mean ¡®everyone is equal¡¯, and he can¡¯t always ¡®overwhelm others with force¡¯, right? "If you really think so, what I said today will not be in vain." Zhou Chen said seriously: "I have gained something." Mo Zhai nodded with a smile, with a 'little boy can be taught' expression, this Then he turned around and went back to the house. Zhou Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief outside, feeling quite like "surviving the disaster". Xia Ji smiled half-heartedly and seemed to be in a very good mood. Zhou Chen didn¡¯t feel too embarrassed to see her ¡®gloating¡¯ about her misfortune. He just said, ¡°It¡¯s funny¡± Xia Ji let out a puff and couldn¡¯t help laughing anymore. When the other party stopped laughing, Zhou Chen asked Xia Ji how her life had been these days. More than ten days later, Zhou Chen and Xia Ji finally left Chu State and arrived in Suiyang, a large city in Song State. Suiyang is located in the north of Suishui River, with convenient transportation. Because it faces the river valley and has fertile soil, it is the capital of Song Dynasty. The monarch's palace, pavilions, gardens, treasuries, temples, shrines for worshiping the Earth God, Ji for worshiping the Grain God, residences of ministers and officials, and guesthouses for foreign envoys are all concentrated in the city. In the center, surrounded by private houses and markets. The market in Suiyang City is next to Kuomen Avenue. Outside the gate is a moat, relying on a suspension bridge for entry and exit. At the entrance is a hanging door that can be lifted and lowered, which is guarded during the day and closed at night. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
