Chapter 12: A Special Soul in the Village of Wronged Souls

When I came out of the hut of the security officer, I felt a little tired, so I didn't plan to talk to anyone anymore. Besides, although everyone's grievances are different, the common denominator is that they were unjustly killed, and they are all related to my enemy, Inspector Liu Mazi, Black Dog, so it doesn't make much sense to talk about it anymore.

The director said, "You don't have to talk to other villagers, but there is a special villager, and you should talk to it anyway." ”

I asked, "Do you have any special villagers in this Soul Village?" ”

He said: "This villager, it is said that it is special but not special, and it is not special but it is special, and this is a special place. ”

I asked him, "Your tongue twister confuses me, is it special or not?" ”

He said: "There are special and non-special places, there are non-special and special places, you will know when you go." ”

I asked him, "Which one?" ”

He said: "The house not far in front of us is the well-known 'little village chief' here, and you can hear the cry in his hut, so you don't have to ask anyone." ”

The more he said this, the more strange I felt, I have seen all the village cadres, how can there be a "little village chief"?

This strange feeling sparked a great deal of interest in me to explore further.

Walking further along the gloomy village road, I heard different cries coming from a thatched hut. Most of the cries in other huts are single, they are single souls, and there are a few households with two or three people, it is said that the souls of a family of two or three people have come together after their deaths, and they are still a family. Only the cries of this one household were continuous, almost drowning out the cries of the neighboring households.

However, when I walked into the door of the hut, the continuous crying came to an abrupt end.

I still say the same thing, "You can cry if you want to, it's okay." ”

A middle-aged man knelt on the ground and said, "There is a rule in the village that if someone comes to chat, you are not allowed to cry." ”

I said, "There are many of you, I heard that you are special villagers, so you can cry if you want to." ”

The middle-aged man said: "It is precisely because we are special villagers that we should especially abide by the rules of the village, rather than engage in specialization." We can't cry. ”

I asked him, "Are you the 'little village chief'?" ”

He said, "Exactly below." ”

I said, "Isn't there a village chief in the village?" How can you set up another village? ”

He said: "Our small village is a special village authorized by the village of unjust souls, and everything is completely subordinated to the leadership and arrangement of the village, and there is never anything special. ”

I said, "Then tell me where you came from." ”

He asked, "Is it simply?" Or in detail? ”

I said, "Whatever you say, the more detailed the better." ”

Here's what the "little village chief" told about them -

This was originally a beautiful village not far from the outskirts of the city, with a population of nearly 300 households and nearly 500 people at its peak, because there is a large natural reservoir in the place near the mountain, and the rainwater flowing down from the side hillside is all stored in the reservoir, which can not only meet the daily water supply of the villagers, but also irrigate the farmland during drought.

Therefore, in the good years, there is plenty of food and clothing, and it can be regarded as a well-known rich village. Even in the event of a drought, the water in the reservoir has never dried up, and it is basically a good place.

Because of an epidemic of infectious diseases, the population has been reduced.

Later, because of the warlords' scuffle, they grabbed troops everywhere and grabbed food, and the original nearly 300 households were suddenly halved, and the remaining population was less than 200.

But no matter what, the life of the people in the village still goes on. Later, two great warlords fought, one losing and one winning. Those who lost abandoned the city with their tails between their legs and fled, and those who won got an empty city, and they were unwilling, and they stepped up the pace of looting people's wealth. There was nothing left to scrape in the city, so it spread to the surrounding countryside.

As a result, some bully squires who have a black conscience have the capital to bully their neighbors, and under the guise of raising food and money for the warlords, they run rampant in the township, doing all kinds of evil, in addition to currying favor with the warlords, they are also looting the people's fat and ointment behind their backs, and wantonly collecting money.

There is a wicked young man in the village who has never done his job, he is lazy on weekdays, stealing chickens and touching dogs, and is deeply abandoned by the villagers.

After the victorious warlord occupies the city, the villain thinks that the opportunity to turn around has come, relying on the fact that he has a distant cousin who has never been in touch with him to be a detective in the city - this person is Inspector Liu Mazi of Black Dog.

The evil young man found Liu Mazi and wanted to get ahead, Liu Mazi looked down on him, and wanted to drive him out of the house after a scolding.

The evil young man was unwilling, and offered advice to Liu Mazi, saying that there were many people in the village who hid food and did not give it to the army, and suggested that Liu Mazi report to the army and send people to grab food. Liu Mazi was worried that he couldn't please the warlord, and after listening to the advice of the evil young cousin, he smiled happily, and immediately took the evil young man to the military to inform.

The report was received by a company commander who had died in a battle not long ago, and he was worried that his anger was nowhere to be released, so he immediately led a platoon of troops, under the leadership of this evil young man and Liu Mazi, and rushed straight to the village overnight, surrounded the village to the ground, washed away all the money, food, and livestock, and sent people to blow up the reservoir and dam, drowning nearly 200 people in the village, and none of them were spared.

After the villagers were drowned, except for a small number of unjust souls who went missing, most of the unjust souls followed the respected village chief to the unjust soul village.

The Soul Village took them in, but according to the rules of the Soul Village, no matter how many people there were, as long as they came in at one time, they could only be given one hut according to the regulations.

They were also content, and felt that they were grateful that they could still have a place to live when they became ghosts, so they used this thatched hut as a faΓ§ade, and did it themselves, digging soil and prying stones, planting trees and flowers, and building an irregular but connected home in the mountain stream and ditch behind the house.

Because of the large number of people, the village decided through deliberation to allow them to exercise partial autonomy under the unified leadership of the village, and appointed the middle-aged man who was the village chief as the internal manager. Therefore, he was jokingly called "Little Village Chief" by everyone......

After listening to the narration of the "little village chief", I felt that their story was a bit legendary, but also a little angry and unfairβ€”this injustice further increased my hatred for Inspector Liu Mazi, the black dog.

At the same time, I feel that the village administration of this unjust soul village seems to be a bit rigid. I think we should adopt the method of analyzing specific problems on a case-by-case basis, and give these people a few more huts.

The "little village chief" said: "This is the rule set by the village of people's unjust souls, and we can't break the rules of others because we have many people!" No rules can't be a circle, rules are rules, no one should break them! Since we came in, we have never broken any rules in the village of unjust souls, all our actions are to obey the unified arrangement and command of the village, and never cross the thunder pond half a step, this is the duty of being a human being, and it is also our duty to be a ghost! ”

Hearing this, I understood the tongue twister of "special and not special, not special and special" that the director of the security department said before, and understood that the villagers of this village are highly conscious, and everyone strictly implements any decision in the village, especially the village officials who take the lead and no one is special, which is very gratifying and admirable!
