The advantage is that it can reduce production costs, allowing more consumers to enjoy chicken. However, the downside is that its muscle fibers are too loose, resulting in a relatively ordinary texture.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, these poultry resembled pheasants in a wild and active state, showing traces of domestication. Especially the Daxiong Chicken in the group, with its comb held high as it strutted, exuded an impressive and vigorous aura.
"Immortal Master, all the livestock are ready," Zhao An instructed as he set down the animals. "We shall take our leave for now."
However, Yun Xiao Yi waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to rush. "I will be using these livestock for a while. Afterward, you will need to take them back. Therefore, if there are no urgent matters, it’s fine to wait here for a moment."
Before departing, Zhao An had learned from his earlier conversation that Yun Xiao Yi was about to demonstrate some kind of magical power with this batch of livestock. Now that he had the chance to witness it, he readily agreed, as it would serve as a topic of conversation for future bragging rights.
"Have any of you ever witnessed the miraculous powers exhibited by the Divine Lord?" he asked. "If not, I have only had one opportunity to observe it myself. What I share with you must remain confidential."
At that moment, Zhao An quickly chimed in, "There’s no urgency; we can wait here."
Yun Xiao Yi nodded slightly in acknowledgment but then recalled something important and turned to Zhao An. "There’s one more small matter I would like to trouble you with."
Hearing this, Zhao Anxin respectfully inquired, "Please, Immortal, clarify your words. We will not refuse to bear any hardships or dangers."
Seeing this situation, Yun Xiao Yi gently waved his hand. "It is not a matter of great danger. I simply hope that if there is any surplus water at home, please divert it towards the Hutuo River as much as possible. At the same time, if you have the capacity, it would be good to care for some of the wandering people."
Faguang Xu Qi's Huang Jin was only halfway to the time when Zhang Jiao declared Qingtian and Huang Tian would surely rise, during the Jia Zi period of Peace and Prosperity. However, this was not an event triggered in an instant; it was actually the result of long-term social contradictions reaching their peak. The anger and despair among the people had accumulated to a critical point, leading to a violent rebellion.
It can be seen that even at this moment, the signs of such an event were already manifesting. Naturally, the number of wandering people should not be small by then. Since there is the ability, one should strive to benefit everyone. Under permissible conditions, assist others as much as possible.
Unlike those who accumulated merit from the eradication of the Yellow Turban Army, Yun Xiao Yi did not intend to oppose them. Moreover, he held no prejudice against this people's movement; rather, he felt more sympathy and recognition for it. As some historical figures have pointed out, movements initiated by the people often carry a certain inherent legitimacy. However, perhaps due to limited vision from their leaders or suppression from various forces, such people's movements often struggle to escape the fate of eventual decline.
Then they are swiftly crushed. Their initial wish was simply to survive. Natural disasters and human calamities followed one after another. What the common people sought was merely a glimmer of hope; could there be anything wrong with that? Thus arose the farmers' uprising. The pent-up anger of the populace erupted after reaching its peak.
Theoretically speaking, signs of this uprising had already begun to show themselves long ago.
It was a time when many wandered without a home. A gentleman, when successful, helps the masses; when in despair, he focuses on his own well-being. Since he possesses such abilities, he should strive to assist more people.
Unlike protagonists in certain novels who rise to power by eliminating the Yellow Turban Army, Yun Xiao Yi had no intention of harming them. In fact, he felt more sympathy and understanding towards the Yellow Turban Army than doubt. As the leader said: farmers possess a kind of primal justice.
Perhaps due to the narrow vision of their leaders and the oppression from various forces, these movements often faced a fleeting fate, swiftly crushed afterward. Yet their initial motivation was simply the desire to survive. In the face of frequent natural disasters and man-made calamities, the common people did not aspire for abundance or health; they merely hoped for a chance to live. Was that wrong? Thus, when rural uprisings occurred, the fault did not lie with the brave people resisting but rather with the heartless social system, with those in power who imposed oppression, and with feudal landlords who would rather let grain rot in storage than share it with the populace.
Of course, attempting to advance socialism at that time was nearly impossible. It was an era devoid of a complete industrial system and a large-scale educated populace; most intellectuals were descendants of privileged nobility. Who would willingly sacrifice their own comfort? More importantly, human hearts are ever-changing. Even a divine being with extraordinary abilities cannot control everyone’s inner thoughts. Once the old dynasty is overthrown...
