Yu Gong was considered a fool. But I consider Huang Dafa to be wise.
Indeed, the legendary Yu Gong's success in moving mountains was ultimately because he had the gods on his side - albeit unbeknown to him.
Huang instead believed he could accomplish the seemingly impossible mission of leading villagers to carve 10 kilometers of irrigation channels into the dizzyingly precipitous bluffs of three karsts without assistance from above.
