The sense of oppression in Shiqu Pavilion was not dissipated until the Mohists came to power.
Why did the Mohists let this oppression dissipate as soon as they came to power?
The reason is simple: something more attractive has appeared.
An extremely huge monster, made of canvas and rough paper glued together, flew over Shiqu Pavilion from the air.
The huge monster was oval in shape, with pictures of ghosts and gods painted on it. It was ferocious and terrifying, and frightened many people.
It wasn't until everyone discovered that there was a wooden frame hanging underneath this oval spherical object, with the Mohist logo hanging around the wooden frame, that countless people knew that this was a man-made object.
Even so, the entire Shiqu Pavilion was in panic for a while.
Until the sphere flew over Shiqu Pavilion and then landed within the palace grounds of Weiyang Palace.
Only then did people regain their composure.
"What is that?" Countless people asked and speculated in shock.
The Chinese have seen countless objects that can fly into the sky.
As early as the late Spring and Autumn Period and the early Warring States Period, Mr. Mo Zhai created the first artificial flying device in human history, the Wooden Bird.
Later, the famous craftsman Lu Ban improved Mo Zhai's design and created a lighter bamboo kite.
After Jinshang organized craftsmen to produce white paper, the improved kite based on the bamboo kite has now entered thousands of households, and has even become one of the best-selling products of the Han Dynasty handicraft industry.
However, even the largest kite that people have ever seen is not as huge as the monster that just flew over Shiqu Pavilion.
Not to mention the ferocious ghosts and gods drawn on this monster, which frightened many people into scattering their souls.
Just by visual inspection, this monster flying over Shiqu Pavilion was at least two feet in circumference!
Moreover, its flying height was more than twenty feet. Without ground control, it stayed in the sky for at least two quarters of an hour, passed through the entire Shiqu Pavilion, and finally landed in an open space southwest of Weiyang Palace.
"What did the Mo family want to do by creating this thing?" Countless people looked at each other, with some bad premonitions in their hearts.
But Liu Che, who was sitting at the top, said nothing.
Yang Yi, who was standing on the stage, was also smiling slightly.
Only Han Ying and Wu Qui in the audience were shocked!
"The Mo family actually did this..." Wu Ban's heart was filled with turmoil and excitement.
He was the first to discover it, by burning mugwort in an empty egg shell to make the egg shell float.
He regarded this as entertainment.
However, after being discovered by a Mohist who was a Mohist, he immediately asked for advice on the principles.
Then, officials from Xiuyiwei came to his door immediately and warned him that he must keep it completely confidential.
Wu Bei had always felt that the Mohist family was taking things so seriously, perhaps a little too much.
But today, he realized that he was a frog in the well!
The people of the Mo family really succeeded in making a huge object lift off and fly through their little entertainment invention!
Since, today the Mohists can already launch such a huge object into the sky.
So, in the future, they can send people and weapons up there from time to time?
If it is really possible!
Then, I'm afraid the whole world will have to change from now on!
Han Ying was also dumbfounded. He heard that Wu was told that the Mo family asked him for an entertainment game creation.
At that time, Han Ying also scoffed, thinking that the Mo family was crazy!
Why?
Because letting people fly into the sky is something Mo Zhai has not been able to do.
If the forefathers couldn’t do it, how can future generations do it?
However, today, that behemoth passed by Shiqu Pavilion and dealt a heavy blow to Han Ying's long-held three views!
"Could it be said that what Teacher Xunzi said is right?" For the first time in his life, Han Ying had doubts about himself and his thoughts: "The king before the law is not as good as the king after the law."
…”
But if Xunzi is correct.
So, doesn’t this mean that Confucius, Mencius and other Confucian sages were all wrong?
This made Han Ying immediately terrified.
Because he knew that the creation just now was indeed the product of Mohist creation and invention.
Then, I am afraid it will shake the values and idea systems of countless schools of thought in the world today, including Confucianism, and tear apart and destroy the three views of countless people.
It is almost equivalent to breaking the truth that it is impossible for future generations to surpass the previous kings.
And if the former king can be surpassed, then I am afraid that all rules will have to be rewritten and all ideas will have to be rethought!
this is too scary!
Han Ying instinctively felt fear.
Even the ministers and princes were puzzled.
Liu Che's guards and attendants tightened their nerves and were nervously alert to everything around them.
Only a few people can remain calm.
………………………………
On the podium, Yang Yi kept looking at the hot air balloon, which was called an 'airship' by the emperor but code-named 'Kunpeng' within the Mohist family, until it disappeared into the distant sky.
Then, he coughed lightly into the phone: "Gentlemen, don't panic, don't be nervous..."
He said slightly: "What you just saw is a creation of my Mohist family, code-named 'Kunpeng'. Its principle comes from a small thing discovered by Mr. Wu of the Zajia family. Mr. Wu used mugwort to burn egg shells."
, making it float in the air. When we, the ink writers, saw it, we were very happy, so we submitted to His Majesty for approval to set up a group to study this phenomenon. Not long ago, we finally achieved some results..."
Yang Yi's explanation made the princes and princes suddenly quiet down.
Because everyone in the world knows that the Mohist family’s achievements in instruments are comparable to those of heaven and man.
The number of things and instruments they invented and created is incalculable.
The waterwheel they invented is now used almost all over the world.
The breastplate they invented and manufactured is currently the standard equipment for the absolute main force of the Han army.
An army without breastplates is too embarrassed to go out and meet people.
And the various agricultural tools they invented and improved became popular all over the world.
In last year's Battle of Gaoque, the so-called unfallable Gaoque Fortress was wiped out in front of two heavy trebuchets of the Mohist family, and the Huns fled in panic, which further proved the Mohist family's strength in this aspect.
Nowadays, although the Mohists have gone a little too far.
but……
Certain princes and ministers who are in high positions and are able to explore and learn certain secrets know it very well.
The creation that passed through Shiqu Pavilion just now is probably the least powerful product within the Mohist family.
There is no proof of the 'Thunder of Heaven's Punishment' that was passed down orally in the palace, the 'forbidden thing' that was vaguely spread within the Shaofu, or the explosion that once caused an unprecedented scale in Moyuan, like an earthquake.
Yes, the Mohists hold some terrifying power in their hands that is beyond ordinary people's knowledge and understanding.
However, these things seem to have been blocked by the Mohist family and the emperor.
Except for the prime minister and a few important ministers, it is difficult for outsiders to see his true face. (To be continued.)
