After Hua Yuan left, Mo Wu bowed to Merton and said, "please forgive Mo Wu's wayward crime. Mo Wu was born in Mohism and should study ink skills. However, Mo Wu is obsessed with medical skills. Now he has separated from doctors and established a hundred other schools. He is really ashamed of the young master."
Among the hundred schools of thought, Mo Wu first joined the medical school, and then set up another biology school. He really failed to live up to the Mohist school that has been training him.
Merton didn't think so. He laughed and said, "it's the glory of Mohism that we Mohists can establish a hundred other schools. Moreover, the science of biology is also the science of studying all things in the world. It belongs to the same vein of physics as Mohism. It seems that two hundred schools have the same goal by different paths."
"Thank you, young master." Mo Wu said solemnly. With Merton's support, his heart was full of confidence.
Merton's words turned: "you do have a different way to experiment with medicine and use all things in the world to study the essence of birth, age and death, but it's not enough to rank among hundreds of schools."
"Please give me some advice." Mo Wu raised his eyebrows and asked for advice. In his opinion, his idea is enough, at least as good as geography.
"People! In fact, all schools of thought are created around people. Even geography is not only about natural geography, but also human geography. Your biology is not enough just to test drugs, because doctors can do these jobs," Merton said.
"Man?" Mo Wu frowned. Man is the research direction of doctors. Should his biology be studied?
Merton nodded and said, "man is also a kind of creature. Man has flesh and blood, and animals have flesh and blood. Do you think there is any difference between man and the orangutan you have craniotomy?"
"There's almost no difference except for long hair and crawling." Mo Wu's face changed and was content to tell the truth.
"Since there is no difference, can biology attribute people to the same kind of animals as orangutans and monkeys?" Merton nodded.
"How can people and livestock mix together." Mo Wu suddenly opened his eyes and said with an incredible expression.
Merton picked up a history book and put it in front of Mo Wu and said: "You don't think that human beings are really made of Nuwa's clay. They are naturally so intelligent! In the pre-Qin period, there was not much knowledge in the world, and hundreds of schools of thought were founded, which led to the situation of today's hundred schools of thought contending. Similarly, before Cangjie created characters, human beings were illiterate and could only be replaced by murals. In a further era? At that time, human beings were not as ignorant as beasts."
"The young master means that the more human beings go forward, the more savage they are. Only through continuous learning can they have today's strength." Mo Wu thought.
"The Yellow Emperor is only four thousand years old today. What was human like four thousand years ago, and what was human like forty thousand years ago? Four hundred thousand years ago? Before the Suiren family had no fire, human beings did not eat their hair and blood. Before Luozu invented the silkworm, human beings were not wrapped in animal skin. Before the Chaoshi family, human beings did not live in caves like animals Cave. What was the difference between man and beast at that time? "
Mo Wu was in a cold sweat. He wanted to refute the young master's words, but his reason told him that it was true.
Merton then said, "and human speed is not as fast as horses and strength is not as strong as tigers and leopards. If you were, how would you survive in the pre ancient period when there were wild animals everywhere?"
"Climb the tree!" Mo Wuyi said bitterly. When he said this question, his heart was a little more relaxed. There was a vague answer in his heart, but he was unwilling to admit it.
"What's the difference between humans climbing trees, collecting fruit, killing animals smaller than themselves for food and orangutans and monkeys?" Merton asked.
Mo Wu shook his head helplessly. From the current perspective, there was no difference between humans and orangutans hundreds of thousands of years ago.
Merton Road: "Let's push it backwards. A long time ago, a group of apes lived in the forest. Maybe they had to come to the ground to survive because of lack of food or forest fire. In order to survive, they learned to use weapons to defend themselves. In order to survive, they watched thunder chop wood and obtained fire. Later, they learned to drill wood for fire. They learned to build houses to avoid wild animals , learned to drill wood for fire, learned to hunt and plant, and gradually became the overlord of this land, established tribes, established countries, and gave birth to knowledge. "
"Rather than learning, they have been evolving. Not only humans, but all people are adapting to their environment. This is biological evolution, which you can call evolution," Merton said.
"Evolution!" Mo Wu's eyes lit up. As a son of Mohism, he naturally didn't believe in the so-called legend that Nu Wa made man, and evolution found a possibility for Mo Wu to appear.
"Why are humans, not orangutans, not monkeys, not other animals!" Mo WuFan asked.
"Natural selection, survival of the fittest! This is not only the struggle of mankind, but also the choice of God." Merton said seriously.
"Thank you for your advice!" Mo Wu was excited. He founded biology as a temporary inspiration. However, under the guidance of Merton, his biology was not only based on the theory of evolution, but also based on the concept of natural selection and survival of the fittest. So far, his biology really had a soul.
"Biology is an extremely profound knowledge, and the energy of a person's life is basically completed. I suggest you specialize in the study of animals. Mohist university has always been responsible for Mohist experimental fields and is proficient in farming, which can help you study the study of plants." Merton suggested. Merton's move is not to share the credit of Mo Wu, but to really think of Mo Wu.
"Thank you, brother." Mo Wu nodded without hesitation. Only with Merton's guidance, he realized how vast the hundreds of new houses he had inspired for a while, not to mention that one person can't complete them at all, not to mention that Mo Da is his family and the best choice to study plants. Naturally, he won't refuse.
As Hua Yuan left Mo Fu, the news about Mo Wu's preparation to create biology spread instantly, and all schools of thought were in an uproar.
"Biology studies all living species in the world."
All the hundred schools are surprised that there are living things in the world. This is indeed a remote knowledge, but it can also work in theory.
"Mo Wu really got lucky and thought of this remote knowledge." a scholar said sour. Although biology is very remote, it is different from other hundred schools of learning after all.
"In my opinion, this is not a new hundred schools at all, but a branch of doctors at most. After all, the purpose of Mo Wu's research on creatures in the world is to test prescriptions." some people also denied.
The other hundred schools nodded one after another. They did admit that Mo Wu's research was unique, but it was far from enough to achieve the achievements of all schools of thought. After all, all schools of thought had their own ideas and theories, rather than just putting forward a research direction.
"It's just people who fish for fame. I've been waiting for a long time, but now I'm disappointed." there are also Confucian scholars who despise them. As a child of a hundred families, they hold their own noble status. Li Tai, who had originally developed a geographical vein, naturally doesn't want to develop another biological vein of Mo Wu, let alone look down on Mo Wu from Mohism. Now they have caught the flaw, Naturally, the old don't mean to belittle Mo Wu.
However, it was not long before an article on Mo Wu in Mo magazine shocked the whole people.
The three characters of evolution occupy the front page of the ink journal. The subtitle of the three characters is that the best thing is to survive and let the people who hear it be.
At the same time, at the bottom of the article, a picture shows the evolution of an ape walking on four limbs into a well-dressed human step by step, which immediately caused a tsunami and huge waves in Chang'an city.
