Unbelievable, Far Too Difficult
After leaving Wu'an City, Liu Yi continued his travels across the land with Little Yellow.
Standing on territory controlled by the Peasants' Association, the sight before him made him pause:
Some wielded knives, unleashing blade energy to cut through the mountain; others swung shovels, creating numerous afterimages; still others used their lightness skills to carry loads, swiftly moving away the rolling rocks and soil.
The scene of road construction was bustling with activity, and resounding slogans echoed through the mountains:
"One for all, all for one; with everyone working together, let us strive to build an equal, free, and harmonious society!..."
He stared at everything before him, first bewildered, then shocked, and finally fell silent, his mind buzzing, a thought uncontrollably popping into his head:
Surely no one actually wants to build a harmonious society?
Although he wrote "How to Go from Uprising and Rebellion to Establishing a Harmonious Society in Three Years,"
The book combines elements of Xiaohongshu (Xiaohongshu), the essence of Huaxia Civilization, and rebellion strategies with the author's analysis and deductions, and was subsequently uploaded to the System Store for free.
But he never thought anyone could actually realize a harmonious society; he only hoped that this book could provide a spiritual baptism for people.
It would be enough to conduct some ideological education, guide social trends, and instill revolutionary spirit in more people.
After all, this is a world of cultivation where great power resides within oneself and one person can withstand an army of thousands; establishing a harmonious society is extremely difficult.
As he expected, many years after the book was published, he traveled from the Eastern Desolation to the Central Continent, passing through various countries, and never saw anyone attempt to establish a harmonious society.
Only the system's hosts have access to this book, but they've long been exposed to the various books in the System Store and the diverse viewpoints on social media platforms, turning them into seasoned veterans.
Having a clear understanding of the world and being well aware of the difficulty, or even the impossibility, of building a harmonious society, naturally no one attempts it.
But now, he actually saw someone trying to build a harmonious society, and for a moment he could hardly believe it.
But hearing those slogans made him somewhat believe that someone was genuinely interested in building a harmonious society and had already taken the first step.
Little Yellow had also read "How to Go from Uprising and Rebellion to Establishing a Harmonious Society in Three Years".
Gazing at the bustling scene before it and hearing the slogans, it couldn't help but feel a jolt in its heart and exclaimed in surprise:
"Master, it's unbelievable that someone actually wants to build a harmonious society!"
Who did it? Didn't they know it was difficult to accomplish?
Liu Yi snapped out of his daze and exclaimed in amazement, "Yes, I can't believe anyone would actually dare to try to build a harmonious society."
I'm so curious about the circumstances and mindset with which he made this decision.
Little Yellow asked again, "Master, do you think a harmonious society really exists in this world?"
Liu Yi replied with a complicated expression, "That depends on the world. In a world without supernatural powers, there is still hope for building a harmonious society."
However, in this world of cultivation where power resides within oneself, establishing a harmonious society is extremely difficult, if not impossible.
After all, there is no absolute fairness and equality in the world, and given the endless desires of humankind, a harmonious society is not so easy to achieve.
Unless we erase human emotions and desires, turning everyone into puppets...
Alternatively, one could impose restrictions on each individual, regulating their behavior and forcing them to abide by rules and regulations.
However, these are all coercive methods, and none of them constitute a harmonious society.
He paused, then continued, "Let's walk a little further and see. What we see now is only a small portion of the population; it doesn't represent everyone."
After saying that, he continued walking forward.
As he traveled, all he saw was a bustling, vibrant scene:
Some were busy repairing roads and building bridges, digging irrigation canals, and the crowd was shouting loud slogans, working with great enthusiasm;
He also witnessed a plea meeting where corrupt officials, landlords, and local tyrants who had oppressed the people were all executed after being tried.
They even witnessed the scene of land being seized from landlords and distributed to peasants, whose faces were filled with ecstatic joy when they received their own land.
What he saw left him no choice but to believe that there were indeed people trying to build a harmonious society.
"The Peasants' Association, and Li Zhiyuan? I never imagined they were actually building a harmonious society."
The persecution by the Evil Soul Hall and the oppressive rule of the Qing State were truly unpopular; no wonder everyone wanted to overthrow the court and establish a harmonious society.
Looking at everything before him, Little Yellow exclaimed in amazement:
"Li Zhiyuan and the Peasants' Association genuinely want to build a harmonious society!"
Moreover, it seems they have already conquered most of the Qing State, and judging from this momentum, they are still controlling the pace of their offensive and consolidating their foundations; otherwise, the Qing State would probably have been destroyed long ago.
It's just a bit strange, why hasn't the Qing State's National Guardian Immortal Master made a move yet?
Furthermore, judging from the information gathered along the way, the cultivator sent by the Evil Soul Hall was a vicious and ruthless person. How could he tolerate the existence of the Peasants' Association?
Upon hearing this, Liu Yi said, "The Qing State's national guardian immortal master has probably been suppressed, otherwise the Peasants' Association could never have developed to this point."
It seems that some people are secretly observing, wanting to see if this harmonious society can actually be built.
Little Yellow suddenly realized. "That's the only possibility!"
However, this harmonious society is indeed different. Look at the eyes of those people; they are full of hope and a spirit of transforming the world.
Their mental outlook is completely different from that of people in other systems' coverage areas.
Moreover, I just checked them specifically, and their minds and spirits are all normal. They haven't been misled by any bewitching methods, and their mental state is genuine.
This is truly incredible. I doubt there are many people in the entire Azure Billows Realm who possess such a mental state.
Liu Yi smiled slightly and said softly, "This is the charm of a harmonious society."
Those people possess a spirit of fearlessness, dedication, and sacrifice.
If they were to cultivate mental or spiritual Cultivation Method, their cultivation would surely advance by leaps and bounds, at an alarming rate.
Even if one were to practice other Cultivation Method, with this unwavering belief, their progress would far surpass that of ordinary people.
Building a harmonious society is still too difficult. Even if the Qing State Dynasty is overthrown, the Evil Soul Hall will still be a challenge.
Even without the Evil Soul Hall, there are still various problems to solve.
Little Yellow said somewhat dejectedly, "I've also read 'How to Go from Uprising and Rebellion to Building a Harmonious Society in Three Years,' but why don't I understand anything about it?"
"Is it because I'm a dog that I can't understand?"
When Liu Yi heard Little Yellow attribute its lack of understanding to being a dog, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"What does this have to do with you being a dog? If you haven't grasped it, you haven't grasped it."
You see, Human Race haven't grasped this either. This matter is only related to oneself, and has nothing to do with race.
We continued towards Antai City; I was curious to see just who this Li Zhiyuan was.
"And while I'm at it, I'll also take a look around and see how the harmonious society the Peasants' Association' association is really doing."
After saying that, he headed towards Antai City, while simultaneously using his Divine Sense to access the system and search for videos about the Peasants' Association on TikTok.
