Chapter 288 Everything is according to your will



Some people seemed shocked by what Mo Hui said, some fell into deep thought, and some walked away angrily.

Mo Hui looked around, and although his expression was indifferent, there was still excitement in his eyes.

The two younger men behind him held their heads high and chests puffed out, looking quite dignified.

After learning about the immortal's questions and selection of talents, the Mohist school came to Chang'an almost immediately, and the more they understood what the immortal said, the more excited they became.

On the surface.

The current situation is indeed very consistent with their Mohist teachings.

In particular, the worldly truths spoken by the immortals are more in line with the Mohist research on the nature of instruments and worldly phenomena.

Just as Mo Hui said at the beginning.

In their view, this is an era in which Mohism is prominent.

"Interesting." Shen Yi couldn't help but chuckle as he watched this scene. "If he hadn't said that, I wouldn't have noticed. It seems to be quite consistent."

The biggest shortcoming of Mohist doctrine is its utopianism that is divorced from reality.

What impressed Shen Yi the most was universal love.

Confucianism's "benevolence" emphasizes blood relationships, leadership relationships, and relationships of precedence, which is not only in line with the interests of the ruling class, but also in line with human nature.

Who doesn’t have a better relationship with their parents and family?

The Mohist "benevolence" emphasizes "love without distinction". It is a universal love and an idealized equal relationship between people.

Don't talk about ancient times like this.

Even in a more modern civilization, this kind of universal love cannot be achieved.

But here’s the thing.

This kind of utopianism that transcends ordinary reality is possible under certain circumstances that also transcend ordinary reality.

Even in the inheritance that Shen Yi obtained, there were examples of the existence of this kind of civilization.

——The Kingdom of God.

That’s right, it’s the kingdom of gods.

In some worlds where true gods exist, there is the kingdom of God.

The residents of the Kingdom of God are all believers of God. They not only love God, but also have selfless and equal love for each other. It is a truly utopian social structure where everyone's spiritual life is extremely fulfilling and their material life is extremely rich.

But this state is only based on the existence of "God" and God's will.

It is equivalent to a special society constructed with a powerful force that transcends civilization.

And there are also considerable risks.

One is "self-awakening". After all, to a certain extent, the people in the kingdom of God are equivalent to puppets of God on the spiritual level, and "self" is the instinct of all life. Once the self begins to awaken, it will only be extremely painful in such a society.

The other is the fall of the "God".

Today, Shen Yi can also be called a "god", and he also has his own world.

But he knew clearly that his strength was nothing in the powerful world.

However, even after raising the level, the so-called "universal love" is still just a fantasy.

After all, other gods would not talk to him about universal love - unless a stronger god established the rules.

Dingxiang didn't know that so many thoughts emerged in Shen Yi's mind in such a short time.

She turned her head, looked at Shen Yi, and asked softly: "Captain, if you want to turn this world into an ideal civilization, you can do it with your strength."

"Of course, it's nothing more than turning this world into my 'kingdom of God'."

Shen Yi said this in a joking tone, but he was soon surprised to find that Ding Xiang's expression was very serious.

"You don't really want to do this, do you?" Shen Yi couldn't help but ask.

"Guiding the development of civilization originally has different directions, and this is indeed a feasible solution." Ding Xiang was indeed thinking about this approach, and did not think there was anything wrong with it. She just said, "Everything is according to your will."

“.”

Shen Yi was silent.

He looked at Dingxiang's flawless face and was silent for a long time.

Then he slowly said, "You should understand my will. The association itself is the embodiment of my will. I have no intention of becoming a true god, but only want to become a human with great power - so, the association will only be an association, and will not become a kingdom of God."

"Yes, of course I understand your will." Ding Xiang was not surprised by Shen Yi's answer, but she showed a smile on her face, "But will can change. What Ding Xiang means is that no matter what kind of will you have, Ding Xiang will act according to your will."

".I see." Shen Yi understood, and he smiled, "Don't worry, if I really change, I will still let you help me, but for now, what you have to do is to guide this civilization to grow into a civilization that can develop independently, because after we solve the end of the world, we will leave."

"Yes, Captain!" replied Ding Xiang.

This sentence basically means that Mo Hui's dream of making Mohism the dominant school of thought in the world has been shattered.

At least it is impossible until its idealistic core changes.

After all, thoughts are something that must constantly change and grow.

At this moment in the banquet, Mo Hui has become the most handsome boy.

Not only Li Shimin was by his side, but other people also gradually gathered around him to listen to him talk about the ideas of Mohism. Among them there were many who refuted, but Mo Hui argued with them one by one. Even if some of them were unanswerable, he was still unwilling to be outdone. He seized upon the parts of Mohism that were in line with the changes of the time, and spoke at length about them, becoming more and more confident.

An hour passed quickly.

Accompanied by a clear and pleasant piano sound, everyone stopped, and the whole place went from noisy to silent in a short period of time.

Everyone looked towards the platform.

Spots of light kept appearing out of thin air, gathering together, and finally turning into the Lilac Fairy. Her dreamlike face made many people who saw Lilac for the first time look dazed. They simply couldn't imagine that there was such a beautiful face in the world.

But when they saw Dingxiang's eyes, that stupid look disappeared without a trace in an instant.

The vast eyes, like smoke, even overshadowed this peerless face.

Just looking into those eyes is like looking up at the vast galaxy.

It makes people feel insignificant and humble, and they dare not blaspheme in the slightest.

Some people even couldn't help but lower their heads, not daring to look anymore, with only unspeakable shock left in their hearts.

Is this the Lilac Fairy?

He is indeed a person with great supernatural powers who can see through everything. Compared with him, the wisdom of mortals is so insignificant.

Even Mo Hui, who was quite proud just now, was humble at this moment.
