Chapter 728 Secret(1/2)
The woman seemed to notice Yang Fan's mentality and giggled: "It seems that the master knows everything, but he doesn't know everything!"
As she said that, her eyes were shining and staring at Yang Fan, and she said slowly: "The little woman has lived on an isolated island since she was a child. The tribesmen there have been pursuing the way of immortality all their lives. Even if there is no chance, they have studied various strange techniques to pursue more in line with the way of heaven. The words of the Grand Commander just now gave the little woman a little insight..."
"The way to immortality? Is there really a technique to immortality in this world?" Yang Fan frowned, a little unbelievable.
The woman nodded undeniably: "I don't know whether a person can live forever, but it is certain to prolong life. Have you heard of the "Mo family"?"
"I've heard of it!"
Yang Fan paused and added: "The Mo family is one of the hundreds of schools of thought, and the founder is Mozi (Mozi). The Mo family is a disciplined academic group, and its leader is called Juzi."
"It is said that the Mohist school was a philosophical school in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and belonged to a school that specialized in natural science among the hundreds of pre-Qin schools."
"According to historical records, Confucian representative Mencius once said: "If the words of the world do not belong to Yang (Yang Zhu, a representative figure of Taoism) will belong to Mo (Mozi)," proves that the Mohist thought has been glorious for a period of time."
"The main ideas of the Mohist school are: equal love (either love), oppose war of aggression (non-attack), advocate saving, oppose extravagance and waste (spendence), attach importance to inheriting the cultural wealth of predecessors (intellectual ghosts), and mastering the laws of nature (heavenly aspirations)....”
As he said that, Yang Fan explained the evaluations and records of later generations of Mohism one by one.
When the woman heard Yang Fan telling some information about the Mohist school like reciting documents, the woman's eyes widened, and she seemed a little incredible.
You should know that since the pre-Qin period, the Mo family has retired to the mountains and forests and traveled to overseas islands.
But I didn't expect that a young man like Yang Fan would have so much knowledge of the Mo family.
Although a lot of the content is heard, being able to know so much is enough to show that Yang Fan has special attention to the Mohist school.
At this moment, the woman hesitated a little.
She didn't know whether it was a blessing or a disaster to come to Yang Fan today.
Seeing the woman's hesitation, Yang Fan was not in a hurry, but instead poured a cup of tea and slowly savored the tea.
After a while, the woman looked at Yang Fan with an unknown expression and said, "Since the Duke knows so much about the Mo family, the little woman will not explain much."
"However, there is one thing that the prince misunderstood. People all think that Yang and Mo represent two sects of Taoism and Mo. In fact, it is not only Yang (Yang Zhu, a representative figure of Taoism), but Mo (Mozi, a representative figure of Mohism)" school, but almost all the schools of the pre-Qin period originated from priests during the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors... but later Taoism and Mohism inherited more inheritance..."
Through the woman's narration, Yang Fan has a certain understanding of the origin of the Hundred Schools.
It turns out that in ancient times, gods were the existences that people feared and respected.
During the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors period, in order to have connections with the gods and immortals in the sky, the emperor communicated through sacrifices.
The priest is a clergy who communicates with the Heavenly Court and is a unique existence except the emperor.
With the change of dynasties, hundreds of schools of thought also evolved within the priests.
The Mohist school and the Taoist school have inherited most of the inheritance.
After Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, in order to prevent these clergy who knew how to practice from disrupting the national order.
Therefore, Qin Shihuang cast the twelve golden men to suppress the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, making the environment increasingly unsuitable for the survival of Qi Refiners.
With the changes in the environment and the passage of time, fewer and fewer Qi training men have become legendary figures.
This also led to the Qi training genius disappearing quickly on the stage of history.
Some priests who pursue immortality had to stay away from the Central Plains to seek suitable places to practice, which also led to the Qi Refiner almost disappearing from the world's vision.
What remained in the Central Plains was actually just some research equipment, elixirs and other Momen’s children!
On the contrary
Those priests who jumped into great gods became emperors and sacrificial officials... instead gained a firm foothold, which is the so-called Taoist sect.
Yang Fan was shocked when he heard the woman's story.
I didn’t expect that the real Mohist school had such a connection with Taoism.
According to historical records in previous lives, the Mohist schools were divided into three schools: Xiangli's ink, Xiangfu's ink, and Dengling's ink.
According to Yang Fan's understanding, the ink of Xiangli and Xiangfu's ink actually represent the hands-on and theoretical schools of handicraftsmen.
The ink of Deng Ling's family represents a qi-refining man who pursues immortality, which is what people call a raider.
It is obvious that the women's tribe members had actually moved overseas before Qin Shihuang was unified, and it can be said that they retained the most complete inheritance.
It is no wonder that a weak woman can have such strong combat power, and she can be said to be a true Qi Refiner.
In the words of later generations, women and those who moved overseas were understood by dialectical materialism.
These people are equivalent to the ancient architects, physicists, chemists, astronomers, medical scientists, prophets, metaphysicists... they are definitely advanced talents.
No wonder the woman just looked at her rocking chair for a while and then explained all the principles.
The Mo family is a steward and a practical person...
In short, these people even represent the best talents in construction, physics, chemistry, etc. of this era!
But Yang Fan felt a little regretful.
These people have wasted their talents and did not use the knowledge accumulated and inherited from generation to generation to improve people's lives. Instead, they have spent their entire lives exploring those illusory immortal paths.
Is there really immortality in this world?
Yang Fan once again had such a question in his mind!
But he dared not deny it.
After all, the system and traveling to the Tang Dynasty are not something that science can explain.
Apart from theology, Yang Fan really couldn't think of any force that could drive all this.
Looking at the unpredictable look on Yang Fan's face, the woman was very proud.
In her opinion, Yang Fan was shocked by their identity.
The woman was more confident about what she was going to say next.
It's just a pity!
This prince has too many bonds in the world and cannot be devoted to seeking immortality.
Otherwise, Yang Fan, who had become the governor of a party before he was young, would definitely be their target of absorbing.
According to the investigation during this period, the great governor in front of him not only has extraordinary wisdom and insight, but also has a innocent heart for the country and the people.
If you step into the path of immortality, you are likely to be able to see through the supreme heaven!
The woman was looking forward to Yang Fan exploring the way to immortality from her.
After waiting for a long time, Yang Fan did not move at all, and the woman was a little stunned!
This is a little different from her expectations!
Logically speaking, shouldn’t these ordinary people be anxious to ask how to live forever when they hear the way to live?
Why is Yang Fan not in a hurry at all?
The woman didn't know that Yang Fan had long seen that the woman in front of him was obviously asking for something.
If you say it first, won’t you have no bargaining chips for negotiation?
Yang Fan was very envious of the tribe members mentioned by the woman, which was a free labor force!
He should do the most important thing at the moment when he is planning his affairs and building Jiangnan into a rich place.
It is too far away from him to cultivate immortals and seek Taoism, so there is no need to be so anxious.
What's more, if the other party really wants to spread the way to cultivate immortals, the other party will also deliver it to the door without having to speak.
The woman seemed to notice that Yang Fan was playing deeply, but she just smiled distractedly and said, "It seems that the man knows that the little girl has something to ask for, so I won't go around in circles."
After saying that, the woman's beautiful eyes shining through the veil, staring at Yang Fan shinyly and said, "The little woman said just now, we are a group of pursuits."
Qi-training men of the Way of Eternal Life moved to an island overseas in the pre-Qin period."
"As time goes by, the sea water gradually increases. Now the area of the island can be used is less than 2/3 of the previous one, and it is becoming increasingly unsuitable for living."
"Since I saw the Grand Commander's new sea ship, it was not only the huge hull of the sea ship, but also the steel body that was not corroded by the sea water... Everything was really shocked!"
"Therefore, the young woman wanted to ask the master for the skills of casting immortal steel so that the tribe members could build a place to live on the sea so that the tribe members could continue to survive on the island. I wonder if the master could tell me?"
When Yang Fan heard the woman's words, he thought this guy was simple and cute.
Who would spread the method of forging steel at will?
More importantly, Yang Fan was shocked by the woman's wild idea.
It's incredible to build a steel fortress on the ocean.
Even in later generations with advanced technology, no one dared to regard the ocean as a livable place.
However, according to this woman, her tribe members are all skilled craftsmen, and some of them are superhuman Qi Refiners.
If there is an advanced method of steelmaking, it is really possible to build a Great Steel Wall on the sea.
But Yang Fan is definitely not a philanthropist. If you want to get the method of making steel from yourself, Yang Fan will certainly not do the business that loses money.
"I am the lord of Jiangnan, so I naturally have to plan for Jiangnan. The method of steel forging can build sea ships and start shipping for Jiangnan, which can bring huge benefits to Jiangnan. These benefits are enough to allow the people of Jiangnan to live and enjoy peace, and even make the empire prosperous. The foundation of the country is such that a certain person can only meet a female hero. Why should I give you such a thing?"
Yang Fan felt that these people who practice the way of immortality were too ignorant of human nature.
If you don’t give anything, you just want your own technical patent. How can you do such a good thing?
To be continued...
