I have to say that Li Zexuan's heart is really big enough. He wants to directly bring all the capable people of the Mo family under his command~!

Of course, this is no wonder he is, it is the ability that Mo Huai has shown, especially in astronomy, physics, and optics. For Li Zexuan, who has just built Yanhuang Academy, he is simply the most perfect teacher candidate~! With the addition of Mo Huai, his workload in Yanhuang Academy will be greatly reduced in the future~!

After Li Zexuan finished speaking, Mo Zhong and Mo Yun both blinked, with a hint of hope on their faces. They said that they were the core disciples of the Mo family, but their work was no different from that of farmers. Usually they also needed to do farming. Otherwise what do they eat? What to drink? Only during the slack season will they return to the Mohist school and receive training or other arrangements from the organization.

They are all capable, but because of their status as Mo, they have to stay in a desolate place and engage in hard work. It was nothing to go on like this, but they came here with Mo Huai to make an appointment and saw the people of Chang'an City. After the prosperity, their hearts were shaken~!

Disciples of other schools can't understand the suffering of the Mozhe, and now Li Zexuan's remarks have made them start to wonder, why can't they rely on their own skills to let their family live a good life~?

However, although they thought so in their hearts, they would not say it easily. The long-term career and organizational discipline have been deeply engraved in their hearts~!

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

"Master Li's good intentions are accepted by this old man~! But as an ink artist, you have to wear fur and brown as your clothes, and take your sloppy clothes as your clothes. Qualified to be a Mohist~? This old man has violated the law of my Mo family by promising you to become a teacher of Yanhuang Academy. In the future, I will no longer be qualified to lead the world's Mohists and carry forward the Mohist school~! Therefore, as a giant, this old man must resign~! As for the other ink practitioners, I advise you not to waste your efforts~!"

After Mo Huai finished speaking, the faces of the two young people Mo Zhong and Mo Yun instantly showed seven points of shame and three points of regret. The two of them lowered their heads and did not say a word.

Li Gangda frowned and said, "Brother Mo, you are so confused~! The Mo family has grown from hundreds of thousands of people in the pre-Qin heyday to less than 100 disciples today, and you haven't thought about the reason for this~? Do you think the decline of the Mo family is only a matter of Is it because of the suppression by the emperors of various dynasties~?"

Mo Huai said with some resentment, "Isn't that right~? If Emperor Wu hadn't dismissed the hundred schools of thought and respected only Confucianism, why would my Mo family end up where it is now~?"

Hearing this, Li Gang said quite sadly: "Ridiculous~! I didn't expect you, Brother Mo, to see the real reason for the decline and fall of the Mo family to this day~! Anyway, this old man will wake you up~! It's Confucianism, but today, I don't help Confucianism or Moism, so I will analyze it with you as an outsider~!

You said that your Confucianism declined because of the suppression by the emperors of various dynasties, but since Emperor Wu deposed the hundred schools of thought and only respected Confucianism, why did Mohism, which is also known as the world’s most prominent school of learning with Confucianism, decline rapidly, while Taoism and Law were able to survive Survive to this day in the cracks of Confucianism~? Have you ever thought about the root cause of this~? "

Li Gang's remarks directly revealed the root cause of the decline of the Mo family. Mo Huai couldn't help suffocating, his face paled for a while, but Li Zexuan listened carefully. Obviously, Li Gang knew more about these old things than he did. This opportunity to learn and learn is also good.

Li Gang didn't wait for Mo Huai to answer, and continued: "In the opinion of this old man, the reason why the Mo family is in this state is because your Mo family's requirements for the children of the disciples are too harsh~! Don't get tired of being fine-tuned", and you Mo people can only "wear fur and brown as clothes, and wear waders as clothes, day and night, and take self-suffering as extreme"?

Maybe it's because you have your beliefs, but who said that people with beliefs can't rely on their own hands to live a good life with plenty of food and clothing~? Could it be that living in dire straits every day can make you ink masters rank higher than the rest of the world~? "

It has to be said that Li Gang's remarks are straight to the point, Li Zexuan couldn't help but clapp his hands and applaud~! It really makes sense~!

Among the hundred schools of thought in the pre-Qin period, the four schools of Confucianism, Mohism, Taoism and Law had the greatest influence. However, after the unification of Qin and Han, their fortunes began to diverge: Confucianism became the orthodox and mainstream of Chinese culture; Legalism, because of its special nature, dominated the temple politics of the autocratic court for two thousand years; Taoism widely accepted believers and occupied the Civil society has become the spiritual home of the hermits.

Only the Mohists, after a moment of brilliance, both as a theory and as an organization, all vanished into thin air and disappeared in the long river of history.

Why did the Mo family end so sadly? Is the Mohist thought not smart enough? Certainly not. The Mohist ideological system is full of great humanitarianism and scientific spirit. Even from the perspective of modern people in the 21st century, it is still so splendid.

Apart from the reason of "dismissing a hundred schools of thought and respecting only Confucianism", there are internal reasons for the demise of the Mohist school: if a person wants to become a faithful believer of the Mohist school, he must have a strong spirit of sacrifice and dedication, and he must have a fraternal love for everyone. heart, rather than personal feelings.

Therefore, "Zhuangzi: The World" criticized Mohist saying: "Its life is also diligent, its death is weak, its Tao is great; it makes people worry, makes people sad, and its behavior is difficult. I am afraid that it cannot be the way of the sage, and it is against the world. The heart of the world is unbearable. Although Mozi can only be in charge, what is the world! If you are away from the world, he will be far away from the king!"

In contrast, being a Taoist disciple is much happier

. The goal of Taoism's practice is to become an immortal, which is a good wish that can attract a large number of believers. And for Taoism, especially Zhengyi with a long history, there are not too many regulations in terms of abstinence, and the room-in-the-room technique is even a kind of Xianjia secret technique.

As a religion born in the world, although Buddhism requires abstinence, monks can enjoy spiritual satisfaction while abstinent, so that all sufferings are regarded as a boat leading to happiness. It is precisely because of this "chicken soup for the soul" that devout Buddhist disciples can ignore the physical hardships and pursue the metaphysical Zen joy.

However, the Mohist ideas of universal love, non-aggression, virtuousness, sympathy, non-life, non-music, frugal use, and burial... These ideas are not enough to become the foundation of the Mohist disciples' soul beliefs. And if it is not based on firm belief, the life of abstinence will not attract new blood to join the Mo family, and the number of Mo people in the world will only decrease~!

This is the internal reason for the decline of the Mo family~!
