Chapter 70 She once saw the light (8)
"This matter needs to wait a little longer. Prepare the things first, and send people here every day to watch and prevent people from running out."
Qiao Shi heard the village chief's words clearly inside, but he didn't argue about anything. He found a pair of clean clothes, wiped himself clean, changed his clothes, heated up the food, and ate some food.
The village chief is a local emperor in this village and has supreme power.
even……
The power of life and death.
The one who can make the village chief wait must be someone from above, so he doesn't want to cause any trouble at this time.
If Qiao Shi hadn't caused too much trouble, I'm afraid the village chief wouldn't have chosen to lock up Qiao Shi at this time.
——
All night long, there were people taking turns watching around the house, fearing that Qiao Shi would run away.
At noon the next day, the number of guards suddenly decreased by half. They left in a hurry without saying a few words. Qiao Shi's heart moved and he listened to the conversations of several people outside.
From the beginning, it was just a matter of family affairs, and then we finally talked about the people coming from above.
"...I heard that someone is coming from above. No wonder the village chief doesn't dare to take action at this time. It's a pity for Mei Chun, who is as beautiful as a flower."
"Bah, this monster should have been burnt earlier. If it hadn't been for the people from above, how could this monster have survived to this day? We still have to watch here. We don't know what the people above want to do. Burn a monster in our village. Monsters have nothing to do with them.”
"You can't say that. But when you come here, come here. Anyway, you will walk around for a while and then leave. I heard that they are people from the city. Those people all ran to see it. I don't know what to see."
"I heard that people in the city have electric lights and telephones upstairs and downstairs. I don't know if it's true or not. I'm sorry. We only have two telephones in the whole village."
…
As the two chatted, they changed the topic to things in the city, their words full of envy and jealousy.
Qiao Shi didn't listen any more. He put a big straw hat on his head to cover his face, found a wooden stick, and ran to the backyard to climb over the wall.
There were originally eight people taking turns looking at her, but now there were only four people left, two in front and two behind.
Quietly observing the movements of the two people behind her from the top of the wall, Qiao Shi saw that only one person was left, squatting in the corner with his back to her and not knowing what he was doing. The other person ran away to who knows where.
Seeing this, Qiao Shi quietly jumped down from the wall, walked around behind the man and knocked him unconscious with a stick.
Immediately afterwards, Qiao Shi ran directly towards the village chief's house.
Even if people come from above to promote something, they will only be at or near the village chief's house.
Along the way, there were almost no people in every house in the village. Until he approached the village chief's house, Qiao Shi heard something shouting from a loudspeaker. When he got closer, he saw a bunch of people, all gathered together.
A high platform was set up in the middle, and someone was holding a loudspeaker and laughing and saying something on it. From time to time, there was laughter from below. The men and women were very cheerful and enthusiastic.
The village chief was also smiling with everyone on the side. He looked honest and courteous, holding a dry tobacco bag in his hand, and his face was full of kindness.
It is hard to imagine that this group of people were discussing how to burn a person, a living person, who they thought was possessed by an evil spirit.
…
"...Don't laugh, everyone. MZX said that women can hold up half the sky. Women are not just about giving birth to children. They can go to work and make money. They can also support their families. They are no worse than men. Does the mayor of x city know that? Strong women, don’t think that it’s not good to have a girl. Daughters are also little cotton-padded jackets. I don’t have a daughter yet..."
"...I heard that in ancient times, this woman would be thrown into the pond if she committed a crime. Do you think that's right?"
When the people above talked about this matter, there was another burst of laughter below. Some said it was wrong, and some said it was natural. If a woman loses her virginity and does not sink into the pond, wouldn't it be an insult to the family lintel, etc...
"We are now in a socialist society. Killing requires a life penalty. Can a couple divorce if their relationship is not good? In today's society, no one has any reason to take another person's life. This is not feudal dross..."
As he was talking, Qiao Shi noticed that some of the people below had strange expressions on their faces.
That's right, what they did before was just killing people!
But most people still don't take it seriously, because they all think that what they are killing is just an evil spirit, not a life.
"Oh, that's a good idea, but I don't know if it can really be done when things get to that point."
Qiao Shi walked around to the edge and stepped onto the high platform, reaching out and taking off his straw hat.
The villagers and village chief below became shocked and even a little frightened.
The publicist looked at Qiao Shi in confusion, then turned to look at the village chief.
"Village Chief Du, what's going on?"
"Comrade, what happened to you?"
After speaking, he asked Qiao Shi kindly.
Before Qiao Shi could answer, the village chief quickly stepped forward and spoke before Qiao Shi.
"Commissioner Chen, don't listen to her nonsense. She is a lunatic in the village. She misses her children so much that she talks nonsense all day long."
As he said this, he prepared to have Qiao Shi taken away. At the same time, several strong men jumped up and prepared to take Qiao Shi away.
Qiao Shi pushed the village chief away directly, his face full of anger.
"You are crazy about your child. If I don't say anything now, I will be burned to death by you tomorrow. Burnt alive!!! I am a human being, not an animal!"
Qiao Shi roared at the top of his lungs, and Committee Member Chen's expression changed. He quickly pulled away from the village chief and began to ask Qiao Shi about the specific reason.
In this regard, Qiao Shi did not hide anything and carefully told the cause and effect.
This was the time to vigorously promote the abolition of feudalism. How could Commissioner Chen not care if something like this happened.
If handled well, it can definitely add to his political achievements.
"...I have been abused by my man for a long time. I never thought of resisting before, but later I was completely heartbroken... But when I resisted, these people said that I was possessed by an evil spirit and wanted to burn me..."
"Don't talk nonsense here. When are you going to be burned? It was obviously you who chopped off your man's fingers with a knife. We were afraid that you would hurt others, so we locked you up. Aren't you crazy like this? I dare to chop off a man’s fingers!”
The village chief quickly found a reason to refute Qiao Shi's words, but Qiao Shi sneered.
"I chopped off his fingers because he was addicted to gambling and lost my wife to others. Why can't I chop off his fingers! I am a human being, not a commodity for sale, and I am not his slave! Commissioner Chen, I But I heard that gambling is illegal, and you will go to jail if you are caught!"
Commissioner Chen frowned slightly when he heard this.
"That's right..."
But this kind of place still retains even the dregs of feudalism. How can he talk about gambling and breaking the law?
"Commissioner Chen, since my man sold me to others like a commodity, I hurt his finger, but these people said that I was possessed by evil spirits and wanted to burn me. There are now piles of firewood in front of my house. There are several people who take turns looking at me, waiting for you to leave and light a fire. If I hadn't escaped by chance, my living life would have been burned alive by these people!"
