Chapter 345 Mo Family Disciple
"Grandpa, don't talk nonsense with them, they are all Zhu Yuanzhang's accomplices." The girl with an owl on her back said coldly, "Today our disciples of the Mohist school will show Zhu Yuanzhang a lesson. The Mohist family is very aggressive!"

"That's right!" A young man next to him said coldly, "We Mohist disciples are not so easy to bully."

"Back then, Qin Huali, the second generation giant of the Mohist family, created a feat of helping the Song State guard an army of 50. Although we only have [-] people now, it is no problem to wipe out this group of villains who have no weapons at hand!"

"That's right." Another Mohist disciple said, "After our whereabouts are exposed, the big deal is to move again."

"Bold! Wait, do you know who you are facing?" The lieutenant next to Lan Yu said coldly, "He is the famous General Lan Yu, you and the mob are vulnerable to General Lan!"

"Although none of us are armed with weapons, it's a big joke that your fifty Mohist disciples want to annihilate a thousand of us." Another lieutenant general laughed.

"Yeah, this is the first time that this general has been underestimated by others. It's interesting." Sapphire laughed.

"Sapphire? I haven't heard of it!" The girl sneered, and said to the old man next to her, "Grandpa, let them see how powerful our Mohist disciples are, otherwise Zhu Yuanzhang will get worse!"

"Shut up!" The old man scolded after hearing the words, "We Mohist disciples, we must not ignore the overall situation and act quickly."

"Our biggest task at present is to bear the burden of humiliation and preserve the thousand-year inheritance of the Mohist lineage, so as not to let the Mohist academics disappear in the long river of history."

"Since the Qin Dynasty, the Mo family has been suppressed. We have endured it for thousands of years, and the inheritance of the Mo family has been preserved until now. If we could endure it before, why can't we bear it this time?"

"But, Grandpa, they are going to dig the ancestral graves of the Mohist sages!" the girl said.

"If we attack now, although we can defeat them, it will definitely attract a crazy counterattack from the imperial court. The whole world belongs to Zhu Yuanzhang. If we anger Zhu Yuanzhang, I am afraid that there will be no place for the Mohists in the world." Hearing this, the old man sighed , stopped the girl from continuing, "Be patient with a knife on the head, but bear it no matter how difficult it is."

Then Xiang Lanyu said in an almost pleading tone, "General Lan, please let our Mohist family go, and don't disturb the spirits of the Mohist sages. Digging up people's ancestral graves is a disastrous thing."

"We, the Mo family, just want to live on, and we don't want to fight against the court."

"The Mo family never thought of destroying Zhu Yuanzhang's country."

"Old man!" Lan Yu said, "To be honest, if the emperor hadn't issued a strict order, I would not be able to harm people from all families. I really want to see what the non-attack of the Mo family is like."

"I remember that the siege ladders in the Spring and Autumn Period were invented by your Mo family. I don't know if the Mo family has developed to the present and whether the mechanism has improved."

"What did you just say?" The old man was surprised. "You said that Zhu Yuanzhang issued a strict order that you are not allowed to harm people from hundreds of families? But you..."

Since Zhu Yuanzhang told him not to harm people from hundreds of families, why did he dig up other people's ancestral graves?
"Let me tell you the truth." Lan Yu said, "The emperor has ordered the construction of a huge Jixia Academy on the top of Zhongshan Mountain, and the restoration of the Hundred Schools, and plans to invite the descendants of the Hundred Schools to give lectures in it."

"You should know the Jixia Academy in the Warring States Period. It is mainly based on Huang Lao's learning and compatible with hundreds of schools."

"In the newly built Jixia Academy, the emperor has set up the Academy of Military Affairs, the Academy of Agriculture, the Academy of Medicine, the Academy of Yin and Yang, the Academy of Taoism...and of course your Mohist Academy."

"Your Majesty, are you really planning to build Jixia Academy?" The old man was dumbfounded, his heart beating non-stop.

"Grandpa, don't listen to his nonsense!" the girl said, "Emperor Zhu probably wants to trick us out and catch us all. He is so cruel to Confucianism, will he show mercy to our Mohism?"

"You know that the emperor is cleaning up the Confucianism, but you don't know the news that the emperor is going to restore the hundred schools?" Lan Yu asked.

"Although we live in seclusion in the mountains, the flames of the emperor burning books are everywhere, and there is blood everywhere. It's hard for us to know." The old man said, "As for the news that the emperor wants to restore the Baijia, we really haven't heard. "

"However, we have already sent our disciples to investigate in the city."

"I didn't lie to you. The emperor really wants to restore the hundred families. I hope that the heirs of the hundred families will take the initiative to report in Yingtian Mansion, and then enter Jixia Academy. When your disciples who inquire about the news come back, you will know what the general said. It’s true.” Lan Yu said, “The news of the restoration of the Hundred Schools should reach here soon, and the construction of Yingtianfu’s Jixia Academy has already started.”

"It is estimated that it will be completed within half a year."

"General Lan, since the emperor wanted to restore the Baijia, and didn't want to annihilate us, why did you come to dig the graves of the Mohist sages?" the old man asked, "If the general can't explain this clearly, the old man will say nothing." will believe it."

"What is the old man's name?" Sapphire asked.

"I can't help you, I am the No. 20 second-generation giant of the Mohist school." The old man said.

"General Lan, his name comes from the words Kong Xibunuan and Mo Tubuqian, which means..." the councilor next to him whispered.

"You are the only one who has knowledge, and you bullied me without reading?" Lan Yu interrupted him, and said to the old man, "Mr. Fu, how much knowledge of the Mohist school do you have? How is it compared to the previous giants?"

"I'm ashamed!" Fu Buqian said, "Mohism's mechanical and non-offensive techniques have been lost and broken since the Qin Dynasty. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the damage to Mohism's knowledge was particularly serious."

"The knowledge of the Mohists that the old man currently masters is estimated to be only one-tenth of that of the sages."

"Isn't this the end?" Lan Yu said, "The emperor wants to restore the contention of a hundred schools of thought, and what he wants is the complete knowledge of all the schools of thought, not the superficial knowledge you have mastered."

"You only know one out of ten. How will the Mo family shine in Jixia Academy in the future? What's the point of the emperor restoring the hundred schools?"

"The emperor guessed that there must be many classics of the Mohist school buried in the tombs of your sages. Therefore, he ordered us to dig them out and recreate the glory of your Mohist school."

"The emperor really said that?" Fu Buqian's eyes widened.

"How many brains do I, Sapphire, dare to make up the imperial decree of the emperor?" Sapphire said, "Presumably, the great masters of your Mohist family will also leave legacy instructions, and you can dig out those classics when the right time comes."

"That's right!" Fu Buqian said, "The giants of the Mo family have indeed left such a legacy."

"When the world is peaceful and the emperor respects Mohism's academics, he can dig out Mohist classics and create another Mohist glory. But we have been waiting for more than 1000 years."
