In the past five years, as many as 100 young women have disappeared in Changzi County, and there have been reports that members of a church in the county have been responsible, and the church is also involved. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the beginning, the families of the missing people went to the Manchu government to sue the church, but the Manchu government shielded the church and beat the family members of the missing people, and the local people dared not speak out.

The Changzi County Government directly mobilized police forces to seal off the church, arrested all the personnel of the church, and found tens of thousands of taels worth of silver in the church, as well as more than a dozen pistols and rifles.

After interrogation, it was learned that five missionaries and most of the parishioners of the church were involved in trafficking. Cases of women who were abducted. The Changzi County Court sentenced anyone involved in the abduction and trafficking of women to death by the Elder Son County Court.

Tongshan County, Wuchang City, Hubei Province

Three years ago, a church in the area forcibly occupied many households to build a factory, but the people refused, so bloodshed occurred, and many people were killed and injured, but the local Manchu government did nothing and allowed the church to forcibly occupy the people's farmland.

Now the people have filed a complaint with the Tongshan County Court, and in addition to the three French missionaries who have been imprisoned, the Tongshan County Police Station has also sent people to arrest more than 20 parishioners involved.

After investigating the matter and learning the truth, the Tongshan County Court sentenced three French missionaries and five parishioners to capital punishment, while the remaining parishioners were sentenced to several years of hard labor.

From south to north, from east to west, wherever there are Western churches, there are ordinary people who are oppressed by the churches, but under the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the local people dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, because those who rushed to stand up and speak did not have a "good end", so no one dared to stand up again.

When Yan Xueyi's order reached all levels of government, governments at all levels quickly closed down churches and arrested missionaries, and ordinary people who had suffered all kinds of oppression stood up to testify about the crimes committed by missionaries and parishioners.

On 11 August, the latest issue of China Daily was launched, which focused on several cases of church oppression of ordinary people.

The people of Siqi Province, who first saw the newspaper, were outraged, and the Western missionaries actually used Chinese babies as experiments, cruelly dissecting live babies, and Western missionaries deserved death, even if death was cheap.

After that, the non-missionary Westerners who were still staying in Siqi Province fell into bad luck, and the common people, regardless of whether you were a missionary or a non-missionary, whether you were a man or a woman, saw them and smashed them with things, throwing dung, throwing rotten eggs, and throwing stones.

As long as no one is killed, the police and auxiliary police who are responsible for maintaining law and order will not come forward to stop them, because they also hate Westerners very much after reading the newspapers, but they cannot do it themselves because of their duties.

Westerners staying in Siqi Province have such a encounter as long as they do not die is lucky, more importantly, Westerners can no longer sell things from the hands of the Chinese, although the people of Siqi Province also have some rejection of Westerners, but Westerners will still sell things when they come to buy, and now, the people who hate Westerners will not sell anything to Westerners, even if Westerners add money, they will not sell.

Not long after, the first case of a Westerner starving to death on the street with paper money in his hand.

With the expansion of the distribution area of "China Daily" to the whole country, an anti-ocean storm began to blow from Siqi Province and quickly spread to all parts of the country, but the governments at all levels of the Han Kingdom did not stop it, but deliberately led the people to turn their attention to the British, French, Russians, and Yue himself, because the Han Kingdom is now at war with these four countries.

The foreigners in Siqi Province have money to buy food and starve to death, but the foreigners outside Siqi Province are better, although the common people treat foreigners in the same way, but these areas are occupied by the Han Kingdom, there are many people who forget their righteousness, as long as foreigners spend money to buy food.

Now the foreigners are trying their best to escape the country, for fear that they will be "eaten" by the angry Chinese people that day.

Of course, foreigners cannot all be evil, there are also some good foreigners who have helped the Chinese people, but these are useless, Westerners bring too much suffering to the Chinese, the Chinese do not care whether you are good or evil, as long as you are a Westerner, you are guilty.

Shencheng Pier

A Chinese girl of about 16 or 7 years old, dressed in a white classical Western-style princess dress and wearing a black veil hat, threw herself into the arms of a middle-aged Western-aged woman dressed as a nun and cried quietly, tears falling to the ground one by one.

"Sister Marianne, don't go, I don't want you to leave." The girl said with tears in her voice.

"Son, it's not that I want to leave, it's that the ruler of this country wants me to leave." Sister Marianne, with a somewhat haggard face, gently stroked the girl's hair draped over her shoulders and said softly to the girl.

Girl: "Why?" Why did they let you go? ”

Sister Marianne: "Son, there is a distinction between good and evil, because we will be driven out of our country by those who are evil. ”

Girl: "Sister Marianne, you are so kind, unlike those bad people, shall I go and intercede with them to let you stay?" ”

Woo! Woo! The ship's whistle sounded, and the ship was about to depart.

"Child, I'm leaving, don't cry, you have to learn to be strong, and use the knowledge I gave you to help more people who are suffering." Sister Marianne said, picking the girl up.

"Sister Marianne, will you ever come back?" The girl asked.

Sister Marianne shook her head and did not answer, she did not know if there was a chance to come to this country again.

"Kid, I'm gone, goodbye." Sister Marianne turned to leave, tears streaming down her eyes the moment she turned, and she didn't want her students to see her crying.

"Sister Marianne, goodbye, woo."

Woo! Woo!

The girl watched as the ship carrying Sister Marianne slowly sailed away from the dock.

At some point, a middle-aged man with a relatively rich body and a kind face appeared behind the girl.

"Daughter, go home." The middle-aged man said softly to the girl, it turned out that he was the girl's father.

"Daddy, woo, why did they drive away Sister Marianne, she is so kind." The girl turned around and threw herself into her father's arms and continued to cry.

"Daughter, I don't know, this kind of thing is not something that I can touch as a businessman." Father sighed.

"I must get justice for Sister Marianne." The girl secretly made up her mind. (To be continued.) )
