Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

C1297 Sublimation of the People's Heart

"Look at that statue of mother and son outside Boss Mi's shop, it's just a bronze statue, in my eyes, it's the Bodhisattva that righteousness our hearts, because the mother and son met calamity let us see the ignorance and greed in our hearts, their blood washed away the filthiness in our hearts …"

A high-spirited youth stood in the crowd without any fear. He looked at these people, who were more likely to be uncles or grandpas than him, and said what he was thinking.

"Why? Have you ever thought about why? "

"Why don't the Russian fleet dare to take a detour against us? Why did they only dare to sneak attack the Amami Oshima? "Isn't it because we became stronger …"

"Why are thirty thousand enemy troops in the vicinity? Our Na Ba doesn't have a curfew? Why was everyone still able to sit in the tavern and talk about current affairs? "Why didn't you run back home in fright and guard that jar of rice from the others?"

"Why is the commercial street still open? Why did the Boss Mi's food shops not only not increase the price while there was a robbery, but also not restrict the supply? Are we really in a war? "

The continuous stream of question marks left countless adults speechless. Right? Why? Why aren't we afraid? Why is the order of the city not disorderly at all?

"Because we are strong! Not only are the weapons in our hands stronger, our minds are also stronger! "

"In the past, we were just a bunch of mice that were scared out of our wits. We were afraid of not eating, afraid of not having anything to wear, afraid of not having a place to live … "Even if we have all of these, and are afraid of any robbers at any time, if they break into the house and take everything from us …"

"Aren't there many bandits in this world? When the Japanese Shimadzu Family colonized the Ryukyu, what kind of life did we lead? When everyone was wandering around Qing Dynasty, how did those corrupt officials and Baji s bully us? "

"Not to mention the British, the French, the Russian... "So what if those non-humankind beings don't want to drink our blood?"

"Because everyone has fear in their hearts and because everyone does not have a sense of security, when faced with such a life and death situation, the first thing you will do is to protect your own personal interests and the small benefits of your own family …" This is not shameful, this is only for survival, because you do not know who will save you, and even more so, do not know how to save yourselves! "

"It was just like that statue. At that time, we were like children under our mothers' feet. We didn't dare to stand in the face of the outside world's harsh weather. We didn't know that the next moment, it was that big foot that stepped on us, trampling us to death …"

"He has no one to rely on but is as pitiable as a child. He has no means of resisting against all the storms, and all he can do is rely on his instincts to defend. Therefore, when facing bandits, he chose to rob weaker people to survive."

The young man clenched both his fists and all the muscles in his body tensed up. He held his neck up and shouted, "But it's not the same now …" We are not orphans, we have the Prime Minister's protection, and we have the Chinese army to protect us! "

"Just like how a wandering orphan has found her scattered parents, from now on our hearts are at peace! We know very well that even if we meet with the most brutal enemy, at the very least, there will be a strong army protecting us, and at least tens of millions of Chinese people will be hugging us to protect us. At least, there will be a Prime Minister who will act like a good father and come up with ideas for us to protect us from the wind and rain! "

"Because of this sense of security, we can sit here and talk, point at the rivers and mountains. We don't have to worry about whether our rice vat is empty, and we don't have to be afraid that our beautiful daughter-in-law will be taken away by the hungry wolves!"

"Do you know what a nation is now? Do you know what the Chinese are now? Let me ask you, do you want to go back to the old life? To trample the poor mother and child to death just for the sake of a handful of rice, to not hesitate to make a move on the weaker ones just for the sake of their own family's survival? "

"Is that the life you want?"

Everyone at the scene cried. "No …" I won't be able to live the past even if I'm beaten to death. I've lived enough of that kind of life! " The crowd roared in unison.

"That's right! Since we don't want to live our old lives, then let's start from ourselves, from everyone … "We are not fated to go to the new army to help the prime minister fight, but we can contribute to the prime minister's army. We can begin from this moment onwards correct our own words and deeds!"

"From now on, don't spread rumors, okay? From now on, cooperate with the police and control your own neighborhood together. Can't you keep an eye on every stranger? "

"Walk out onto the street and keep order, and promise not to rob, okay? "Old, sick, sick, and disabled families, can we give them something to eat and give them some food to eat?"

"From now on, everyone will settle down in their own little homes, then in their neighbors, and finally in the whole block... If all the neighborhoods were settled, the city would be peaceful! This is what we should do. I just want to ask everyone, can you do it? "

"Sure!" Everyone shouted in unison, "What is there to be afraid of? We won't spread rumors or rob each other. We will protect our families and neighbors and help each other out. This is what we Chinese should do every day …"

The young child took off the student hat that resembled a military hat, and then bowed deeply to all the uncles and brothers present, thanking you! Thank you everyone... I still need to go to the next block to spread the news. Even though I'm just a child, we have our own ways to help the Prime Minister and our Chinese people! "

"As long as our hearts are strong, the Chinese people will naturally be strong! As long as our hearts are at peace, the Chinese will naturally be at peace! "This is what the Prime Minister taught us. This is what the Prime Minister told us about the spirit of our nation!"

"Thank you! "Thank you!" The applause was thunderous. The young child's face was flushed as he squeezed through the crowd and rushed to the next preaching block.

Nearly a thousand of the most talented students in that tyrannical city volunteered to participate in this public lecture. With their propaganda and encouragement, the Chinese people's emotions quickly stabilized.

All walks of life worked according to the rules, the people lived their lives as usual, there was no chaos in the city's municipal supply, the gas lamps on the streets were still bright, the new water system was functioning normally, food rations were normal, and the health and medical industries were in perfect order.

It could be said that Ba was the Ba of the past, but at the same time Ba was no longer the Ba of the past. Even Xiao Letian did not expect that this war would cause countless people to have a clear understanding of the Chinese people, and at the same time, have a faint sublimation of their spirit.

That was no longer a noun floating in the air or flying in the mouths of politicians. Millions of Chinese people finally understood that these two words were actually related to everyone's happiness.

The Chinese are themselves, they are the Chinese. If you are not happy, the Chinese will not be happy. If you are strong, the Chinese will be strong.

People for me, I for everyone! This kind of ideal social realm was strangely stimulated by the war. This was truly an unexpected gain in the Sino-Russian war.
