Chapter 184 Finally, We Meet
"Oh? Is it really Xiang Yu, a descendant of the generals of the Chu Kingdom?"
"And what about Tang Yu? As a nobleman of Qin, how could he harbor such strong opinions against Qin?"
"It seems that the tyrannical Qin dynasty truly had many supporters for those who followed the righteous path, and few supporters for those who strayed from it!"
"The eyes of the people are discerning!"
At this moment, the elder of the Mo family looked at the envelope with shining eyes, his expression extremely satisfied.
He had previously investigated the identities of Tang Yu and the others.
However, they still left people in Xianyang City to conduct another inspection.
If there is anything unusual when Tang Yu and the others leave, then today's meeting will be canceled immediately.
After all, the Mohist school and the tyrannical Qin dynasty were sworn enemies, destined to fight to the death.
They cannot coexist under any circumstances, which is why this desperate measure was taken.
Since being ostracized by the Qin state, the Mohists had been hiding in this mountain cave.
There are so many caves in this dense forest that ordinary people would not be able to identify them.
Danger lurks from time to time, with various venomous snakes and ferocious beasts.
Only the Mohists could create various tools, and they were also proficient in medical techniques.
So they were able to survive in this dense forest.
At the same time, this dense forest is also very close to Xianyang City.
Therefore, it was extremely easy for them to gather intelligence and spy on the activities of the Qin Dynasty.
Yes, if this dense forest were to be described in later generations, it would be called the Qinling Mountains!
It's quite understandable that the Mo family members hiding here haven't been found.
But what they didn't expect was...
Just as they were about to rebel against the tyrannical Qin Dynasty, the Mohist disciples were simply going out to sell books and earn some extra money.
Don't ask why I'm earning extra money...
After all, even if you are a disciple of the Mohist school, you still need to eat. You can't rely on mechanical arts to make a living every day.
Or could you build your own mechanism? So you wouldn't need to eat or drink?
Unexpectedly, while trying to earn some extra money, he encountered someone who truly wanted to rebel against the Qin state.
This person even recruited them; they were incredibly lucky.
Since the other party genuinely wants to cooperate, our Mohist school absolutely cannot break the rules.
At this moment, the old man pointed to the cane in his hand and said loudly.
"The Mo Family's grand formation is activated; we are preparing to welcome our distinguished guests."
At this moment, he felt that the arrival of Tang Yu and the other two was definitely an opportunity for the rise of his Mo family.
It was also an opportunity for the Mohist school to fulfill the long-cherished wish of its ancestors and resist the tyrannical Qin Dynasty to bring peace to the people of the world, so he adopted the highest standards and etiquette.
……
"Brother Xiang, is this road really the right one?"
Tang Yu looked at Xiang Yu, who was searching for various marks along the way.
He was searching like a bear looking for honey, and I felt genuinely worried for him.
Fortunately, Xiang Yu found him each time and led him in one direction.
Hearing Tang Yu's complaints, Xiang Yu also felt a little embarrassed.
“Brother Zilong, what the Mo family members told me is the way and the mark that can be used to find them.”
“I don’t know the way either, this is my first time here, so I have to follow the instructions of the Mo family.”
Although Tang Yu was complaining, he was actually observing the patterns among these marks and the routes they indicated.
At this point, he had already had the system help him to completely measure the route.
Since entering the Qinling Mountains, they have been winding and turning, seemingly intricate and complex, making it impossible to find a way forward.
According to the path recorded by Tang Yu's system, this area was basically going around in circles.
However, due to the large area covered by the circle and the terrain, most people simply cannot react in time.
Tang Yu now knows the approximate location of the Mo family.
……
When Tang Yu and Xiang Yu finally arrived in front of a huge rock, Xiang Yu had not yet spoken.
Tang Yu then saw the huge rock in front of him begin to slowly rotate, even emitting a somewhat ear-piercing friction sound to the side.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The largest round stone was clearly used as a stone gate, and it has now been opened.
Tang Yu looked around and saw many people dressed in animal skins and all sorts of clothes.
The Mohist disciples behind them also raised their rather complex-looking bows and arrows.
Facing him at the very front was an old man leaning on a cane, surrounded by a group of all sorts of people.
Judging from their clothes and thin physiques, they had clearly suffered some hardships here.
The old man looked at Tang Yu and Xiang Yu in front of him and said seriously.
"I wonder if the visitor is Xiang Yu, a nobleman from the State of Chu?"
"Of course it is me."
Xiang Yu immediately and boldly accepted his title.
As the saying goes, "He doesn't change his name or surname," so Xiang Yu certainly had that kind of confidence.
"Since it's Young Master Xiang in person, then the other person must be Young Master Zhao Zilong, whom Young Master Xiang mentioned, right?"
Tang Yu nodded and then said.
"I never expected that the Mohist school would be located in such a remote place. It has truly broadened our horizons. We are truly impressed."
When Tang Yu said this, the admiration on his face was genuine, and as the saying goes, everyone carries a splendid sedan chair.
The Mohists immediately addressed the two of them.
"You two really managed to overcome numerous obstacles and find your way here based on the clues."
"They were already outstanding and intelligent figures at the time, and our Mohist school is grateful for their persistence and dedication."
"In that case, please come inside..."
Looking at the enormous cave, Tang Yu nodded.
Good heavens, they used stones as a door and a cave as cover.
From any other perspective, isn't this clearly a cliff face?
No wonder the Mohists were able to survive for so long...
After entering the cave, Tang Yu discovered that the seemingly dilapidated cave was actually a hidden paradise.
This cave has been transformed by the Mohists, and it seems to resemble a modern military base located inside a cave.
It contains not only weapons made of various kinds of wood, but also barricades, and even a wide variety of daily necessities.
Good heavens, they truly live up to their reputation as the Mohists!
I was somewhat prejudiced before!
Tang Yu sighed with genuine emotion.
Xiang Yu, standing to the side, nodded repeatedly.
Clearly, he hadn't expected the Mo family members to live in such a place, and that their craftsmanship was truly trustworthy.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xiang Yu immediately chose to get to the point.
For him, all sorts of foreplay and excuses were unnecessary.
"My purpose in coming here, Xiang Yu, is to unite with the Mohists to resist the tyrannical Qin Dynasty. I wonder what the elder thinks about this matter."
