Confucian and Taoist scholar

After hearing Du Ning's explanation, all the friends believed that Du Ning was not joking with them, but really hoped that they could go on a mission to the Seven Islands Sea Country together.

Fan Rulong said: "Thanks to Du Jun's trust, if the Holy Court agrees, I, Fan Rulong, am willing to go to the Seven Islands Sea Country with you to help you."

Tian Feipeng thought: "I heard that the Holy Academy has the intention to attack the Seven Islands Sea Country. It is precisely because of your suggestion that I chose to use another method. If I can do my little bit for the human race to recover overseas bloodlines,

, then I, Tian Feipeng, am duty-bound."

Fu Yue joked: "We are all three outstanding Jinshi students who came out of the same dormitory. You are all gone, so don't leave me behind."

"I do too."

"And me."

Others actively expressed their willingness to follow Duning to the Seven Islands Sea Country.

Du Ning said solemnly: "This task is very arduous. This trip to the Seven Islands Sea Country is mainly to eliminate the pirate forces in the endless sea and show the power of the human race on our mainland. Only then can it be possible for the people of the Seven Islands Sea Country to change their attitude towards

The view of our mainland human race. There are certain dangers in it, which may make us return without success, or even cost us our lives. In this case, are you still willing to go to the Seven Islands Sea Country?"

Everyone's expressions changed slightly, but they quickly responded to Du Ning.

"It's a joke, we are all scholars who came from the Three Realms Mountains, so what should we be afraid of?"

"We have also experienced the battlefield of life and death, what else is there to be afraid of?"

"Du Ning, don't worry, if we are allowed to go to the Seven Islands Sea Country, even if we die, we will not dishonor the face of our mainland human race!"

Du Ning was very moved when he heard this. He cupped his hands and said to everyone: "You are so kind, Du Ning thanks you in advance."

"We are all friends, why are we so polite?" Tian Feipeng said disapprovingly.

Fan Rulong said: "You have given us such an opportunity to make contributions to the human race. We should all thank you."

Others nodded solemnly.

Du Ning looked at the sky and saw that the sun had already set, so he said to everyone: "It's getting late, I'm going back to Kongcheng soon, so I'll say goodbye first."

"Okay, be careful along the way."

"Take care, we will come to Kongcheng to find you soon."

After saying goodbye to many friends, Du Ning drove the dragon carriage back to Kongcheng along the original route.

…………

Above the literary world.

Du Ning's new work "Sword Song" written in the Liao Kingdom was quickly published on the headlines of literary newspapers in various countries, causing a great sensation.

Many people have seen with their own eyes that after using this war poem, Du Ning was able to transform his ancient sword into the form of a real dragon to fight, which was extremely powerful.

So many scholars began to practice "Sword Song", only to find that this war poem was not as simple as imagined.

Because this "Sword Song" is extremely consuming of talent and power, after using it, ordinary Hanlin scholars can certainly strengthen their ancient swords into the form of a true dragon, but they can only attack for a short period of time, and they will collapse within a short time.<

/p>

Only a few Hanlin or those with profound academic foundations who are more talented and powerful than ordinary people can barely control the power of "Song of Swords", but few people can control it as freely as Du Ning.

Therefore, many scholars have learned through practice that only scholars with strong talent and strength can perfectly control the power of "Song of the Sword".

As a result, many scholars have classified this "Sword Song" into the bachelor-level genre, which is a war poem that is relatively difficult to practice.

Two days later.

After screening, the Great Confucian Hall confirmed the people who traveled to the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom with Du Ning. Including Du Ning, there were a total of thirty scholars, a representative team composed of fifteen Jinshi and fifteen Hanlin.

p>

Among them are three very close friends, Fan Rulong, Tian Feipeng, and Fu Yue, and the others are relatively reliable scholars selected from the All Saints family.

When selecting these scholars, in addition to considering their comprehensive abilities, Da Rudian will also refer to their relationship with Du Ning in the literary world.

As long as there are scholars who have a grudge against Du Ning, they will basically be ignored by the Confucian Hall.

Those scholars from aristocratic families who had no disputes with Du Ning and had real talents became the priority of the Confucian Palace.

After the number of people going to the Seven Islands Sea Country was determined, Da Rudian quickly summoned these scholars and conducted a three-day training.

During these three days, the Holy Academy sent a scholar who had special research and understanding of the Seven Islands Sea Country to give lectures and tell everyone about the geographical environment, customs and customs of the Seven Islands Sea Country.

p>

At the same time, he will also tell everyone all the information about the court forces, different parties, and the known files in the Holy Court of the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom.

After a series of trainings, the Holy Academy officially appointed scholars headed by Du Ning to go to the Seven Islands Sea Country.

April 18.

Du Ning and others used the power of the "Great Relocation of the Holy Temple" to teleport to the sea border of the Holy Forest Continent and boarded a ship specially headed for the Seven Islands Sea Country.

This is a sea-going ship built by the "Mo Family" of a semi-sage family of engineers based on Mohist mechanical techniques. It can use a small number of manpower to drive the mechanism and convert it into the driving force of the sea-going ship. It can also allow scholars to directly inject their talents into special cultural treasures.

Let special cultural treasures transform talents into power to drive the organization.

The man driving the ship is named "Chen Mingwang", a bachelor of navigation appointed by the Holy Academy. He often rides the wind and waves in the sea and is very familiar with the environment of the endless sea.

The wind and water were smooth today, and after the ship set sail, it sailed towards the endless sea at a speed comparable to flying on the blue clouds.

Standing on the deck and feeling the oncoming sea breeze, many readers were amazed.

"This Mo family's mechanism technique is really exquisite. I remember that there were only about ten people on the boat pushing the mechanism, but it was able to give this ship such a huge power. It's really amazing!" Tian Feipeng said in shock.

"How does the Mo family's mechanism technique work? How can the power of ten people be so great?"

"How do I know? If you ask me, who should I ask?"

"Du Ning, you are knowledgeable, do you know the principles?"

Everyone immediately looked at Du Ning.

Du Ning said with a smile: "Actually, this is using the concept of 'four ounces to pull out a thousand pounds', combining many gears of different sizes to cleverly convert weak power into huge power, thereby pushing the seagoing ship forward. In addition to artificial power,

In addition, with the help of wind and seawater flow at sea, the speed of seagoing ships can be greatly increased in a smooth wind and water environment like today."

After listening to Du Ning's explanation, many scholars still have a little understanding, but they seem to be able to understand the general principle.

Fan Rulong said: "I remember that the Gongshu family, which is as famous as the Mo family, also had great attainments in the art of mechanism. At that time, Gongshu Pan built a ladder for the Chu State to attack the Song State. It was Mozi who went to the Chu State to resolve the war. The two families also

As a result, many feuds were forged."

Tian Feipeng said a little angrily: "The Gongshu family advocates killing, and its attainments in machine arts are far inferior to those of the Mohist family, but it is the most popular family of organs. On the contrary, the Mohist family, which has the most exquisite skills in machine arts, was not favored at that time.

Wait, how ridiculous it seems now!"

Du Ning couldn't help but burst into laughter. There was a reason why Mohism was not liked by everyone at that time. This must mention the ideas and thoughts of Mohism.

The main ideas of Mohism are "universal love" and "non-aggression".

"Universal love" can be regarded as an ancient "universal love" thought, developed from the Confucian "benevolence" and "propriety" of "not only relatives, not only children".

Confucius added the content of patriarchal hierarchy to "benevolence" which means "loving others", and transformed it into "benevolence" which means "loyalty and forgiveness".

However, Mozi advocated "making the world love each other", which removed the content of the patriarchal hierarchy, because common people can also be promoted to the emperor, thus breaking the boundaries of the hierarchy.

Therefore, Mohism's "universal love" is the development of Confucian "benevolence", and it is also a negation of Confucian "benevolence". In Mozi's view, Confucian "benevolence" that does not have universal love cannot be regarded as "benevolence".

p>

Because of this, the actual status of the Moh family in that era was not as good as that of the Gongshu family.

It was not until after the Great War that all the countries in the Sacred Forest Continent came together, and the saints led human civilization and ideas to make leaps and bounds, and abolished many unreasonable patriarchal systems, that they gradually began to accept some Mohist ideas that were originally contrary to Confucian ideals.<

/p>

The Holy Court was compatible with the mechanisms of Mohism and Gongshu, and each took advantage of their strengths. In terms of siege, the Gongshu's techniques were mainly used, while in terms of defending the city, the Mohist techniques were mainly used, thus allowing

Craftsman skills are on the rise in the Holy Forest Continent.

Later, with the advancement of Confucianism and Taoism civilization, Gongjia was gradually overtaken by other schools, and even escaped everyone's attention in the literary circles of various countries.

It wasn't until Du Ning developed the mysterious cannon last year that Gongjia once again rose to prominence in the literary world, creating many things that span hundreds of years in the current era.

It was precisely because of his outstanding contributions to the industry that Du Ning became one of the reasons why he was canonized as a literary monarch by the Holy Court.

Speaking of which, Du Ning also has some subtle relationship with Gongjia.

Fu Yue suddenly pointed in the direction of the cabin of the seagoing ship and said, "Look, this seagoing ship is also equipped with powerful weapons developed by Duning."

Everyone looked in the direction and saw more than ten mysterious cannons placed inside the ship, which were Du Ning's masterpiece last year.

Tian Feipeng said with a smile: "If we encounter pirate forces in the endless sea, these mysterious cannons can come in handy. I have to say that the things designed by Du Ning are easy to use. Equipped with this thing, our mainland human navy

The combat power has increased tenfold. If there is a war with sea monsters in the future, I don’t know how many sea monsters can be killed with one shot."

"I heard that the pirate forces in the endless sea are so rampant, I don't know how many shots they can take."

Others are also looking forward to it. If the Holy Academy wants to eliminate the pirate forces, the mysterious cannon will become a super powerful weapon for long-distance attacks.

Everyone has never seen the pirates from Lingwu Continent, but everyone is full of confidence in the power of the mysterious cannon.
