Is Mr. Li a descendant of Luban?
But there is no way to make a decision on this thing, because now many craftsmen and carpenters regard themselves as the descendants of Lu Ban, but looking at this posture, it really looks like that.
Seeing Chen Tao dumbfounded and silent, Haozi thought he was thinking of Yang Lixuan, coughed and said, "I'm telling you, be careful about that person, he's not from the same group as us!"
"What's wrong?" Chen Tao was interrupted by Haozi's cough and raised his head to ask him.
"Anyway, the Mo family has the same moral character. A toad with chicken feathers on its butt is not a good bird."
"Mo family?" Chen Tao was surprised. This was the first time he heard the term Mo family.
But then again, when it comes to the first meeting between Haozi and Yang Lixuan, how can they be so bitter and bitter?
"Which Mo family?"
"Just that Mohist, Zhu"
Seeing that Chen Tao didn't understand, Haozi fiddled with his Bagua chain lock in his hand, thought for a while and said: "It's not something that can't be said, it's just that it's a bit far..."
This matter has to start with the founder Lu Ban in his mouth.
Around 440 BC, the Chu State was preparing to attack the Song State and asked the famous craftsman Lu Ban to make ladders and other equipment for siege. Mozi was giving lectures in his hometown and was very anxious after hearing the news. He arranged for his eldest disciple Qin Huali to lead 300 strong disciples to help the Song Kingdom defend the city; at the same time, he personally went out to dissuade the King of Chu.
Mozi hurriedly traveled day and night, with tattered shoes and torn feet. He didn't care. Ten days later, he arrived at Ying, the capital of Chu (today's Xuancheng, Hubei). After arriving in the capital of Ying, Mozi first found Lu Ban and persuaded him to stop making weapons to attack the Song Dynasty. Lu Ban introduced Mozi to the King of Chu.
Mozi said: "Now there is a man who throws away his colorful carriage, but wants to steal his neighbor's broken carriage; he throws away his gorgeous clothes, but wants to steal his neighbor's coarse clothes. Who is this person?"
The King of Chu replied without thinking, "This man must have theft disease!"
Mozi took the opportunity to say to Chu Yu: "Chu State has a radius of five thousand miles, fertile land and rich products, while Song State has a narrow territory and poor resources. The comparison between the two is like a float and a shabby carriage, brocade and rags. The king attacked the Song Dynasty Country, isn’t this just like a kleptomaniac? If we attack the Song Dynasty, the king will definitely lose his morality and will definitely fail.”
The King of Chu, Li Quciqiong, refused to give up his decision to attack Song Dynasty on the grounds that Lu Ban had already built siege equipment.
Mozi then said to the King of Chu: "The siege equipment made by Lu Ban is not a magic weapon for victory. If the king doesn't believe it, let me practice the offensive and defensive battle formations with him face to face and see how I can crack it!"
After the King of Chu agreed, Mozi used his belt to simulate the city wall, used pieces of wood to represent various instruments, and practiced various offensive and defensive formations with Lu Ban.
Lu Ban organized nine attacks, but was defeated by Mozi nine times. Lu Ban's siege equipment was exhausted, but Mozi's defense equipment was still there.
The difference between superiority and inferiority is determined by the difference between victory and defeat.
After Lu Ban admitted defeat, he was unwilling to accept defeat and deliberately said: "I know how to defeat you, but I won't tell you."
Mozi listened calmly: "I'm just like how you can defeat me, I won't tell you."
The King of Chu listened in confusion and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Mozi said righteously: "He thought that if he killed me, the Song Dynasty would not be able to defend it. However, I have already arranged a retreat. My eldest disciple Qin Huali can take my place and command with the equipment made by the Mohist family." Defend the city and stand ready together with the soldiers and civilians of the Song State to fight against the Chu army! Even if you kill me now, you will not be able to win!"
As soon as the King of Chu obeyed, he went to this point. Knowing that there was no hope of victory, he was forced to give up his plan to attack Song.
Although the two borrowed belts to form a city and wood pieces to form an array, and they resolved a war through conversation, they also forged a rift. Both families are good at machine craftsmanship, so naturally they have to compete.
The battle between Gongshu and the Mohists lasted for hundreds of thousands of years.
Hearing this, Chen Tao not only asked: "The Mohist family? The Mohist family among all the schools of thought? Haozi, are you too restless to tease me with your idle talk? I It seems that you are not only talking too far, but you are probably talking too much!"
When Haozi heard this, he became anxious, "Believe it or not, your special mother-in-law's love, I won't serve you anymore, Master Hao!"
After saying that, he shook his butt and went back.
"No, no, no, I believe it, why don't I believe it!"
Haozi snorted coldly and raised his big nose to the sky: "I know what you are thinking. This is all secret history, understand? It may be different from what you have experienced before. The successful ones are princes and the defeated are bandits. No matter how it is written in the history books, they will still be the same. It’s just a matter of words from the emperor. In fact, there are many things that are hidden from others.”
"So, Yang Lixuan is from the Mo family, and that's why you don't deal with him?"
"Well...it's not that we can't deal with it. How should I put it? Yes, business competition." Haozi waved his hand and said: "Anyway, this matter won't be clear for a while. I'm old! I really want to talk about it. The whole story of Zhongyuan can’t be explained even if you turn on the loudspeaker for three days and three nights. If you want to hear it later, go to my grandpa, he knows more than me!"
Although Chen Tao agreed, he kept muttering in his heart that Yang Lixuan was not only weird, but also had such an identity, which was really unbelievable.
If it is true what Haozi said, then what connection does this public loser and the Mohist family have with the things behind them?
The Qin corpses in the Cannibal Valley flashed through his mind, and Chen Tao couldn't help but take a breath. Judging from the age, it seemed that this was really possible!
Could it be that this matter is so complicated that even people and forces from thousands of years ago are involved?
"In short, the Mo family is now divided. He is not an enemy of our Chen family, but he will not help us. Anyway, just stay away from him!"
After bidding farewell to Haozi, Chen Tao wandered on the busy streets. As soon as he entered the door of his house, his cell phone rang in his pocket.
When I opened it, I couldn't help but feel happy.
Caller: Zhonghai Drunkard
It’s actually Professor Tian! It seems that he has received the items. This expedited express delivery is really efficient. I don’t think I was wronged to pay the extra money!
The phone was picked up and a familiar voice came from the other end.
"Chen Tao, you little brat, you didn't know how to say hello to me after graduation. You just threw a broken bag over here. I thought you had forgotten about this bad old man like me!" I heard the loud and slightly irritable voice on the other side. , Chen Tao felt a burst of emotion in his heart.
Since graduation, I have not had any contact with those teachers and classmates. Now that I think about them again, I can't help but feel nostalgic.
Although college life is fucked up, it also has its irreplaceable charm!
"I received the stuff. The day after tomorrow, no, tomorrow, I will give you an answer tomorrow!" Professor Tian still had the same old temper. He did not waste the polite words with Chen Tao and went straight to the point.
"Hey, hey, OK, OK! Thank you very much, Professor Tian!" Chen Tao didn't know what to say, so he could only keep nodding and saying, "Thank you for your hard work. I will bring a few kilograms of specialties to see you next time I have the opportunity." Professor Detian was agitated for a while.
Finally, when I was about to hang up the phone, I suddenly heard a broken voice over there.
"Who is it? Is it Chen Tao! Come on, come on, come on, tell me a few words!"
Just as I was wondering who it was, the phone on the other end seemed to have been snatched away, and there was a burst of noise inside.
"Hey! Chen Er, guess who I am, daddy!"
Damn it!
Chen Tao was shocked, why is this guy here?
"Xiao Qingqing?" I tried to ask, and a burst of laughter suddenly came from the other end.
"It's dad, why are you such a good boy? Did you miss me?"
The person over there is his college classmate and roommate, Li Qing, from Shaanxi. He is thin and tall, and can rival Haozi in black. After chatting, I found out that this guy didn't find any good job after graduating from college, so he simply returned to Zhonghai Drunkard and became an assistant and lecturer.
"I said you are very capable! Where is Kang Shen, is he there too?"
Kang Shen is another classmate of Chen Tao. Zhonghai Xianweng has a weird temper and has two or three big cats and kittens. There are only three students in total. It is said that he didn’t take any of them before, just Chen Tao and the three of them. At that time, the school was simply It's a miracle!
"I think he went back to his hometown to become a teacher. That kid Kang Shen is very comfortable! Let me tell you..."
After not seeing each other for a long time, the two of them exchanged greetings and missed life, which made Professor Weng Tian, the drunkard next to him, always despise the two of them for arguing, but he did not forget to add a few words to talk about this fault and his poor grades. In short, it was him Worst class ever.
There is no point in talking about it. On the afternoon of the third day, Chen Tao's computer beeped, and a waiting email flashed on the desktop.
Professor Tian, who deciphered the rubbing information, has news!
