"How vast and vast our country is, with its innumerable forests and grasslands, where it can breathe freely... From the capital to the distant frontiers, people can walk freely, they are the masters of their homeland... Young people have a bright future ... The spring breeze ripples on the vast ground, life is getting faster and faster day by day, and there is no other people in the world who can laugh more than us... Amid the cheerful singing, a group of middle school teenagers were riding in a long-distance bus speeding forward. The clean short hair and even the school uniform, from the costumes of the characters to the scene outside the car window, are very different from the fantasy world of the boundless continent of the ancient agricultural society. In the eyes of the monks of the Boundless Continent, it seemed to be a wonderful world beyond their imagination. But in Zhang Fan's view, although he felt a little unusual at the beginning in his heart, he didn't think too much about it.

At this time, Zhang Fan seems to have a relatively complete memory, he was born in a family in a medium-sized city in a socialist society with the level of capitalist social productive forces in the twenties and thirties of the 21st century. Parents work only 24 hours a week, 9 to 5, four days a week, three days off, and it's easy to take time off and even adjust their working hours. Because there is not much difference in social class, and the distribution of graduation packages, the learning pressure from parents and schools is not very large.

The human heart is always greedy, and it doesn't seem to be pleasant good news for children that their parents have too little time to work. Although it doesn't seem to be as good as the generation gap between the post-60s and post-80s or the post-70s and post-90s, there is not much generation gap even if it is just a difference in identity. More often than not, children are reluctant to engage in any "discipline" with their parents. It's just that Zhang Fan's parents seem to be an exception, whether it is his father who works on the intelligence line or his mother, who is a teacher, they have almost no expectations or even discipline for Zhang Fan, giving Zhang Fan a happy childhood to the greatest extent.

When I was a student, because the grassroots organizations of primary and secondary schools in a socialist society were still able to "reach the heavens" and to a large extent were organized internally, the Young Pioneers and even the Communist Youth League had not lost their proper functions, and specialized "work-study and discipline schools" still existed, and in addition to the necessary political high-pressure environment. There is little room for "school bullying", or if it is, it is not something that most people hear about or experience.

The relatively closed political environment of propaganda and public opinion is also changing people's ideological and moral environment all the time, and it seems that even in middle school, people's thinking is not much more complex than in elementary school or kindergarten in the 80s. There is no need to worry about any interpersonal matters.

A society that is relatively rich and free, but does not lose equality, security, and even a sufficient moral environment, will not make people who have lived in this environment since childhood feel like the "sweet and greasy" life in the propaganda, which seems to be so ordinary, but it nourishes the heart and soul all the time in the depths of the heart.

Zhang Fan was not able to easily recognize this illusion after falling into the illusion after the catastrophe like the protagonists of many fantasy novels. The rational thinking ability and even the constructed dream under the thirty-ninth order of spiritual power are completely different from the dreams of ordinary people, it is very realistic and logical to reproduce a certain understanding and desire for happiness in Zhang Fan's heart, which can make every detail in the dream stand up to scrutiny. Moreover, in this unique social environment, there will be no too complicated interpersonal relationships or even too distinct personality traits.

In this society, Zhang Fan is not a prominent and excellent person, but because the difference between social classes is not very big, coupled with a certain "political correctness" that tends to the middle and lower classes, in the marriage arrangement that the organization is responsible for, those who are not good at falling in love will often have a happier and more satisfying family in their later married life. The changes in the moral environment of the whole society have also made the traditional marriage like a "besieged city" very different. Perhaps it is precisely because too many people are not free to love, and there is no excessive love fantasy and expectation caused by free love, that the collectivist ideology from the student days has been imperceptibly changed, and many egoism in traditional society does not exist...

As the saying goes, happy lives are always similar, while unhappy lives have their own misfortunes, but Zhang Fan's "happy life" is not so monotonous. Because the technology of the times seems to be progressing unconsciously. From the popularization of ultra-light intelligent piloted private jets, to the health monitoring network system, to the "smart companion" and even the "head replacement technique" to spy on the art of immortality, a broader and splendid era of civilization seems to be quietly approaching, and the connotation of life is gradually changing. The years of the ideal society are not only quiet, but also like songs and drunkenness, making people unconsciously indulge in this era of striving for progress. . .

Unconsciously, a full 200 years have passed from the era of the heterogeneous plane, which seems to be the situation of the twenties and thirties of the twenty-first century, to the twenties and thirties of the twenty-third century. The "socialist society" in which it is located has also developed and progressed from the era of the Dyson ring with an average annual growth rate of about 15 percent of the average economic scale of about 15 percent, first slowly, then fast, and finally stabilized, and has progressed to the era of the Dyson ring with trillions of times the total amount of energy and economic scale. The social relations between people are also gradually becoming relatively independent, because everyone seems to be able to own a Battlestar-like spaceship made of carbon nanotubes, and almost everyone can control an industrial system with all the knowledge on their own. The intelligence of ordinary people has also evolved a lot in the progress of technology, and it seems that it is not inferior to the feeling that they once had when they had the thirty-ninth order spiritual power, and they were able to read a large number of books and information in a short period of time. After getting used to the "fantasy virtual game" of the Dyson ring era, Zhang Fan also occasionally remembered some of his hobbies in history and even economics.

However, when turning to some economic history-related materials, Zhang Fan was a little puzzled: the economic history-related materials after the 21st century seemed to have no problems. However, from about 1979 in the 20 th century to the thirties and forties of the 21 st century, why did the rate of progress in labor productivity increase so much under the same similar social, political, and economic mechanism? Why did the conflicts of interests be so slight when some new industries emerged under the traditional socialist mechanism and when units and departments were readjusted? In addition, such lax discipline and management of enterprises and units, and even social pressure, benefited from such a small management interest, and the "quality revolution" How is it done?

Of course, such doubts are only doubts in the end. After all, there are many other reasons to explain, and there is a lot of information about the explanation. For example, the improvement of the educational environment. The whole society has not moved towards extreme democratization and populism, the digestion and introduction of foreign technology, one country, two systems, and the fact that after becoming a superpower, it does not impose the same social system on a global scale, etc. Many of the initial doubts seemed to fade away at this time. Zhang Fan seemed to subconsciously feel some kind of warning at this time, after all, he was not a cultivator of the thirty-ninth order of spiritual power in the real sense at this time, and this kind of warning was gone in a flash. Subsequently, Zhang Fan lived a happy life with the "artificial intelligence spouse" in the Battlestar again...

In this way, under the pressure of the illusion that can only be found in the primordial infant of the Tribulation in advance, Zhang Fan, who is only a monk in the foundation building period, and is not a monk who has experienced ups and downs and richness in the foundation building period, is not too surprised that he will eventually die of old age in the illusion of the tribulation, indulging in the life and era that he expects in his heart.

But at this time, Zhang Fan felt that everything in front of him seemed to be starting to blur a little. This made Zhang Fan, who has a rational consciousness, suddenly begin to doubt the authenticity of his world, and some other memories suddenly gushed out of his mind". Maybe that's not the case in history? No, I'm dreaming。。。 My experience should be ... ”

Zhang Fan in enlightenment finally got rid of this illusion, and everything in front of him returned to normal, he was not in the twenty-third century of the Dyson ring era where almost everyone had the comprehensive strength of the god realm, but should still be in the Qiankun shield, he was reincarnated into another plane of law and martial arts double cultivation monk, this is his true identity?

When Zhang Fan examined his spiritual power again, he suddenly found that based on his internal vision ability and ability to analyze the cycle of exercises, his spiritual power also crossed the threshold from the thirty-ninth to the forty steps that he had not stepped for a long time. Although it was only a difference of the first order, the actual effect brought by this level seemed to be much higher than any threshold for the improvement of spiritual power before.

"Congratulations, it seems that you are now also a strong person in the early stage of the Yuan Infant. Generally speaking, among the righteous path monks of the human race, whether it is a martial artist or a dharma master, there has never been a genius who has such spiritual power cultivation in the foundation building period, or even when the foundation building peak is not at the peak... A bewitching middle-aged woman said at this time.

Of course, Zhang Fan also understood everything that happened before: "Thank you seniors for helping me survive the tribulation of the Yuanying Illusion Realm." Although this does not make me a true Infant Monk, I feel that it must have benefited me a lot... At this time, Zhang Fan carefully thought back to everything in the past, if this middle-aged woman seventh-order demon beast seemed to have at least helped herself survive a fantasy tribulation that benefited him a lot, it didn't seem to have done anything to herself, and there was no need to identify her as an enemy for the time being. Although the soul core of a seventh-order spiritual power demon beast must be very valuable, Zhang Fan did not intend to do some unrighteous things without the other party's hostile behavior. What's more, even if it seems to be still within the Qiankun Shield at this time, a showdown is still an adventure.

"My help is certainly not gratuitous, you should know what my original intention was. The Yuan Infant Heart Tribulation that I inflicted with my mental technique is a common attack method, which is basically based on the monk's original cognition and original appearance, and creates an illusionary world that compounds his ideal happiness. I have seen the spiritual world of people who love the invincible world and enslave the world from now on, I have seen people who expect to live a life of bullying men and women forever, people who only want to live a quiet life with their sweethearts, and people who expect to stay in the master forever and be with the master. I have also seen some overseas monks who have some different worlds from the Infinite Continent. But this world that is too real in your mind must not have been made up by your own fantasies at all, and many of the things in it have a practical basis, right?" said the middle-aged woman-looking seventh-order shape-shifting demon beast.

What Zhang Fan didn't know at this time was that many of the life and environments that were taken for granted in a normal modern capitalist society were very attractive to the demon cultivators who had survived the catastrophe of transformation in the harsh competitive environment of the Demon Beast Dao. Not to mention the "modern socialist society" that I once imagined in my mind after a series of reasonable processing based on the small circles of certain departments, enterprises and institutions in the eighties and nineties, and even the near-future Dyson world under reasonable science fiction, how attractive it is to this kind of person who is almost equivalent to a hungry ghost.

Not every monk in this world is as smooth sailing as the protagonist in a fantasy novel. If it weren't for the pursuit of immortality, I am afraid that the mortal life of this ancient agricultural era would have attracted many people.

In that modern scientific world, it only took a few hundred years of evolution for a mortal world to progress from the agricultural era that seemed to make little difference to the era of "everyone turned into a god and immortal Dyson Ring"? This certainly aroused the keen interest of this Seven Tribulation Demon Cultivator, who had had a rough and tumble experience.
