The moment he saw Mo Jia, He Ao burst into tears.
It has been almost half a year since the closed beta test of "Bai Jia Zhu Dao". During this half year, He Ao, as a first-beta player, after getting over the initial confusion, he resolutely decided to throw himself into the arms of Mohism.
In the beginning, there was no profession of Mohism in "Hundred Schools of Thought", but only four schools of military science. In order to catch up with the progress of the game, He Ao chose to join the school of military skills and learned a magical power of "showing off one's skills in front of an expert".
After all, showing off one's skills in front of an expert is just showing off one's skills in front of an expert. This magical power is used by the skilled military officers to quickly manufacture weapons when they encounter an emergency situation of lack of weapons on the battlefield.
The weapons made by this magical power are all fakes, but they can be used and are definitely better than having no weapons at all.
But it is only slightly stronger than bare hands.
Whether it is Yancheng's standard weapon, the ring-handled sword, or the carefully crafted Mo Dao, neither of them can be compared with weapons made by experts.
The military skill faction mainly focuses on improving their own strength and mastering the use of large weapons. Yancheng does not have any large weapons, and because He Ao is learning the magical power of "showing off one's skills in front of an expert", he is not strong enough in single-soldier combat.
He and Niu Bu were both players in the same test. Not only did Niu Bu enter the realm of self-cultivation early on, he also inherited the power of his ancestors and fought hard against Qi Jiajing. Although he died in the battle, he also cut off one of Qi Jiajing's hands, shocking all the players.
The second-test players Zhuge Wangye and Yileimiao, and even the third-test player Zhang Xiaoti have all entered the self-cultivation realm during this period. Only He Ao is still stuck in the study realm, and is nowhere near the self-cultivation realm.
Now, He Ao finally waited for the Mo family he had been thinking about. He cried with joy and shouted to the sky: "It's been half a year, half a year. Do you know how I have been living in the past six months?"
After venting his anger for a while, He Ao quickly clicked on the link and jumped to the exclusive page of "Bai Jia Zhu Dao".
The exclusive page of the second expansion pack "Hundred Schools of Thought" is divided into three parts: Mo, Agriculture, and Hedao.
From this exclusive page, it is not difficult to see that this second expansion pack will add three new professions.
The profession of farmer was announced long time ago. He Ao directly skipped the profession of farmer, stopped briefly at Taoism and Mohism, and finally chose Taoism.
Delicious food should always be tasted last. The best thing to do is to eat some appetizers before tasting the delicious food.
He Ao clicked on the Taoist page, and the next second, a Taoist priest riding a flying sword appeared in front of He Ao.
???
He Ao: Black question mark face.
No, what the hell is this sudden flying sword? Isn't this an oriental fantasy game? Isn't it a game based on the theme of a hundred schools of thought?
How come a Taoist priest flying with a sword suddenly appeared?
A game with oriental fantasy themes instantly turns into a fairy-tale game?
In He Ao's opinion, flying with a sword has always been a standard feature of cultivating immortals. When he saw the Taoist flying with a sword, He Ao felt that his brain was not enough.
Fortunately, at the very beginning of this exclusive page, there is an introduction to Taoism. He Ao carefully read the introduction to Taoism and suddenly he understood.
Taoism is the ancestor of all schools of thought. Taoist beliefs and ideas are to sense nature and comprehend heaven and earth. Their immersion in self-cultivation is an act of putting their beliefs and ideas into practice.
Taoists believe in non-intervention and rule. Most of them are not interested in secular dynasties and concentrate on cultivation and research. Therefore, regarding the Taoist school, it is stated on the dedicated page:
Taoism is divided into two schools. The concepts and beliefs of the two schools are only slightly different. Whether it is Huang-Lao School or the Hermit School, both pay more attention to self-cultivation.
When changing careers to Taoism, players should not focus on which school of thought it is, but which direction it is heading.
Spiritual value, formation, alchemy, talismans, spells, magical powers, etc. Hundreds of skills are available for you to choose from.
"Array? Magic?"
"And other schools of thought can also be studied. These things of Taoism do not conflict with the magical powers of the various schools of thought?"
Looking at the introduction of the Taoist skills, He Ao's mind immediately turned. If some Taoist skills can be applied to Mohist mechanical techniques.
Wouldn't the fusion of Mo and Dao produce a stronger chemical reaction?
"It's a good thing I took a closer look at the Taoist profession, otherwise I would have missed out on the Taoist formations and spells."
He Ao carefully read the explanation of Taoism on the exclusive page.
Taoism is a very inclusive school of thought. Since the general principles of other schools of thought are all extended from the "Tao Te Ching", in terms of cultivation, the various schools of thought and Taoism are of the same origin. They all absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to nourish and strengthen the soul.
If we talk about the differences among the various schools of thought, it is the different uses of spiritual energy.
For example, Confucianism. The Confucian spiritual energy is transformed into righteous energy after being transformed by the Confucian practice "Five Constant Virtues". The righteous energy can greatly enhance the physical strength of Confucianism. From the point of view of physical strength alone, the physical strength of the military strategists and the school of tactics may not be able to beat the Confucianism.
The same is true for other schools of thought. Except for the differences in cultivation methods and supernatural powers, all other schools of thought are interconnected.
If you want to abandon Confucianism and turn to Mohism, you can completely give up the Confucian practice methods and practice the Mohist methods instead.
Except for Taoism, the various schools of thought paid more attention to practicing their own beliefs and ideas. They combined their own ideas and beliefs with supernatural powers, or to put it more accurately, it was because of the practice of their own beliefs and ideas that their own supernatural powers were born.
Supernatural powers are the external manifestation of their beliefs and ideas.
As for Taoism, since its belief and philosophy is to comprehend nature and focus on spiritual practice, they are far superior to other schools in terms of spiritual practice.
The hundreds of skills that emerged from them far surpassed those of other schools of thought.
During the Shang Dynasty, all the various schools of thought cultivated the same spiritual energy passed down from generation to generation. Therefore, apart from the magical powers, the other skills of Taoism could be combined and integrated with those of other schools of thought.
The spiritual plants of Taoism are almost the same as those of farmers. The puppetry of Taoism and the mechanical engineering of Mohism are similar in nature. The principles of Taoist elixirs and medical prescriptions are also almost the same.
Tao, the ancestor of all schools of thought, can be integrated with all schools of thought!
After learning about Taoism, He Ao immediately had a little idea in his mind. He added puppetry to the magic and formations he had originally planned.
Learn Taoist techniques, formations and puppetry, and see if they can be applied to Mohist mechanical techniques.
As for whether the integration of Mohism and Taoism will cause dissatisfaction among Mohists or Taoists.
He Aocai was too lazy to care about these things. Besides, aren't there enough great scholars with a Confucian appearance and a legalistic mind on Earth OL?
"The most classic palm thunder must be learned, but I don't know if this palm thunder is similar to the one under One Person, and why it is divided into Yin Five Thunder and Yang Five Thunder." "The reverse formation method must be learned. Reversing the five elements can make the spiritual energy burst out with more terrifying lethality. Although reversing the five elements will hurt the root and even backfire on oneself, who cares? Power is everything."
"We'll see about puppetry later. There is a difference between Taoist puppetry and Mohist mechanical engineering. Puppetry pursues wisdom, while Mohist mechanical engineering emphasizes machinery."
After reading about Taoism, He Ao remembered what he was going to do after the update. Then, he took a deep breath and jumped from the exclusive page of Taoism to the Mohist school that he had been thinking about!
Like the Taoist sword-flying, the Mohist school’s first and foremost thing is the Mohist mechanical technique, which gives people a sense of super-mechanical beauty.
He Ao couldn't remember who said that when judging whether an item is good or not, one should first look at its appearance.
If the appearance of this item gives you a stunning sense of beauty, then this item cannot be too bad.
Only when an item is confirmed to be fully functional and easy to use will people start pursuing its appearance.
For example, mobile phones, cars, and even the country’s most important equipment, Dongfeng Express.
It takes a long time for something to go from being ugly at first to being beautiful later on.
The same is true for the Mohist mechanical art on the Mohist exclusive page in front of him. This Mohist mechanical art called Mo Gong Tian Hao gives people a very violent mechanical beauty. He Ao only took a look at it and felt that he had fallen deeply in love with it!
"You are worthy of being my white moonlight. It's worth my waiting for you for half a year!"
When He Ao saw this scene, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. At this moment, he was like someone who had played LOL for half a year, saved up 6299 gold coins, and bought the Monkey King he had always dreamed of.
The general outline of Mohism is "Jingbian" and its practice method is "Skillful Craftsman".
Different from all other cultivation methods, the cultivation methods of other schools of thought mainly focus on opening up the Ren and Du meridians in the body, allowing the spiritual energy to circulate through these two meridians in the body, forming a circulation.
The Mohist practice of "Skillful Craftsman" mainly trains the hands.
The meridians of "The Craftsman" also start from the Ren and Du meridians, but after reaching the arms, the spiritual energy enters the palms from the arms, opening up the six main meridians, various small meridians, and twenty-eight acupoints on the palms.
To become a disciple of the Mohist school, the most basic requirement is dexterity, and "Skillful Craftsman" can open up all the meridians and acupoints on the palm, allowing an ordinary person to have the most sensitive hands and the most flexible fingers!
In addition to practicing "Skillful Craftsmanship", Mohist disciples also need to master a most basic magical power [Seven Skills of Mohist Heart].
Acquiring [Seven Ink Hearts] can greatly enhance the Mohist disciples' ability to multitask. Secondly, after actively using this magical power, Mohist disciples can forget about other messy things and focus all their attention on Mohist mechanical arts, and concentrate more on manufacturing or researching Mohist mechanical arts.
It is worth mentioning that Mohism respects the laws of nature and emphasizes the principle of use it or lose it, as well as the combination of work and rest. Mohist disciples must frequently use [Seven Ink Hearts] to focus on the practice of mechanical arts, but they cannot use [Seven Ink Hearts] for too long at a time and must leave themselves a certain amount of rest time.
At the same time, Mohist disciples must have their own way to relax and empty their minds, which can be drinking tea, watching plays, listening to music, or even going to brothels to enjoy playing the flute.
In short, the Mohists emphasized the need to combine work and rest within the scope of imperial and commercial laws, and within these laws, listening to music in brothels was reasonable.
“Is this the Mohist school?”
"I suck it!"
"Love it, love it!"
After reading the introduction about Mohism, some of its magical powers, and some of its mechanical techniques, He Ao's eyes widened.
Just by reading the introduction about Mohism, he fell in love with it.
Not to mention that Mohism is the school he has always wanted to join. Now He Ao has ten thousand reasons to join Mohism.
Stop talking, once the Mohist school comes out, just go to the Mohist school!
As a prominent school of thought in the Imperial Shang Dynasty, Mohism seems to have a low threshold and many teachings, but in fact, the difficulty of practicing the Mohist practice "Skillful Craftsman" is very high.
To practice "Skillful Craftsman", one needs to open up the six meridians in both hands, twenty-eight acupuncture points and various small meridians.
People’s hearts are connected by their fingers.
The pain that one has to endure when practicing "The Craftsman" is far greater than that of other schools. Not everyone can endure such a test of willpower.
But for He Ao, this is not a problem at all.
Users of virtual helmets have no sense of pain, and only by using a holographic gaming cabin can they adjust their sense of pain.
Without the sense of pain, there is no pain in practicing "Craftsman". From this point of view, players have an innate advantage over the natives.
Moreover, the magical power of [Seven Skills of Mohist Heart], seemingly the concentration of Mohist disciples, is actually a magical power to train the strength of the soul. In addition to the various skills mastered in "Bai Jia Zhu Dao", the only thing that players can bring back to reality from "Bai Jia Zhu Dao" is their own soul.
From the player's perspective, Mohism is the most suitable school of thought for players, although this school is very difficult to practice in the early stages.
After closing the exclusive event page with great satisfaction, He Ao was just about to express his opinion on the second expansion pack "A Hundred Schools of Thought", but suddenly he discovered that the forum was flooded with discussions about the three new professions: ink, farmer, and Taoist.
"Great, great, I finally made it to the Taoist temple. I want to go there and cultivate myself to become an immortal. If anyone dares to disturb me, I will strike them with a palm thunder!"
"Stepping on a flying sword, flying on it, who doesn't have a dream of being a fairy hero? Forget it, I will immediately change my job to Taoism, and no one can stop me!"
"Am I the only one who wants to farm? The magical powers of the farmers are too amazing. Automated transplanting and automated watering are fine, but they can also force the growth of seedlings. If I change my job to a farmer, will I still be short of food?"
"Can you be a little more ambitious? You didn't come here just to farm, did you?"
"Fuck, you are useless. Do you know what it means that the whole world belongs to the king? I just want to farm. If anyone dares to stop me in the place I like, I will kill them with a hoe!"
"??? So what you understand by farmers is, I like your land, please let me farm, otherwise I will kill you with a hoe, occupy your land, and then farm!"
"How else can I grow some plants in specific environments? If I don't occupy all the climates and land resources in the world, how can I grow crops properly?"
"Good, good, what an honest farmer!" (End of this chapter)
