Then we went back to the village committee, which is the village chief's office.

"Bang bang bang!"

It seems that no one responded.

"How do you do it every time! When I came to look for someone, I couldn't find anyone. I said depressedly.

"Bang bang bang!"

I knocked on the door again.

I've been knocking on the village chief's door for a long time, but there is still no response, no response.

"Do you think it's a little strange, like we just now, and then at this moment" ......? ”

I said to Xigui Huang Na and Wang San.

"I feel it too, quick! Get out there and check it out! Huang Na said nervously.

Then Xigui also seemed to understand something, and quickly ran out with Huang Na, and I quickly followed out.

"Sure enough, what we see at this moment is exactly the same as when we first came to the village."

Huang Na muttered to herself.

"At this point I suddenly realized a problem, oops! Forgot to ask one thing! ”

"Zhou Cheng? You have been talking to the village chief for so long, didn't you ask where the village people were just now? Xigui asked me.

All the people looked at me in unison, like they were staring at me. It embarrassed me.

"I'm sorry, but you just focused on asking for news of the deceased and the people in the village. I asked without paying much attention. Embarrassed! I couldn't help but smile.

Huang Na gave me a roll of the eye.

"Let's go! Otherwise, let's go around and see if there are any clues. Huang Na suggested at this moment.

So we started driving around.

The muddy roads along the way are bumpy and thin, and it is very difficult to walk. "This road should also be repaired, the family pays a little money, and the government subsidizes it, it's perfect, hasn't anyone in this village proposed so? Wang San spoke at this moment.

"Hey, Zhou Cheng! What did you know about it over there, so long? Tell us about it

It's too boring to be on the way. Xigui said.

"Okay, then I'll give you a detailed description of what I said, and you will be as shocked as I am!" I said confidently.

These are the exact words of the village chief.

Village Chief: "Our village has existed in this village since my grandfather's generation, and since the feudal period of the Republic of China, some things have been prescribed and acquiesced. This is already a kind of social culture similar to our village. It has taken root.

"To burn at the stake is to punish with fire. Anyone who violates the village rules and regulations shall be punished by gathering the people of the village at night, setting a fire, and allowing the erring villager to walk over the red and purple coals after the fire is completed. That way they won't make mistakes again, because they're afraid! "Calm.

"And what's next? Say it! Seeing that Huang Na couldn't wait, I continued.

"Anyone who is charged with theft, robbery, or corruption will be punished heavily," he said.

”

"It's not like it's a political system of its own. If that's the case, it's terrible, and the people here know how to use private criminal law to restrain it.

”

I think this has formed a small society, the people want it, and the villagers seem to be brainwashed by them! "Thinking of this, my sweat and pores suddenly tightened a lot.

"Then how serious is the second- and third-level criminal law on your side?"

Both the second and third are similar. It is still burned at the stake, and there has been such a legend in our village since ancient times.

”

"That is, a long time ago, when our village chief's daughter was taken by people from a neighboring village to become a daughter-in-law, and was thinking about how to save her, his daughter's body appeared naked at the village gate the next morning.

When the village chief saw his daughter's body that morning, he cried to death. Then I fainted, and I never woke up since, and I didn't bat at death, and my eyes were wide open! ”

"Then the whole village was ready to organize to help the village chief find this justice, trying to arrest the other party to accompany the burial, on that day the whole village ran to Ling Village with torches, regardless of the other party's obstruction, rushed into that person's house, and set fire to people!"

"But I searched all over Ling Village, but I couldn't find that person, and since then, the people in the village have unwritten rules, which are the so-called village rules!"

The village chief said to me. In the future, the descendants surnamed Li who caught him will be killed! Since that person is not caught, kill his descendants"

It was as if he hated that person to the core.

"So much so that after this incident later, some people proposed to set up a new rule to commemorate our innocent death of the village chief, before the village chief passed away, he took great care of everyone on weekdays, and was kind, and the village chief saw that they all silently did good deeds to help them. At this moment, the village chief seems to be telling something unwilling.

Then the village chief continued. "Our village rules are also due to the development of this matter, so we use fire xing in the regulations, and it is also to prevent this situation from happening again!

"If someone kills someone in the village, colludes with the people of Ling Village to persecute the interests of the village, or if the circumstances are particularly heinous, they will be punished with a pig-cage type fire!

"Is it so cruel?"

"But in my opinion, this village chief has gone too far, let's apply to ban this village chief, they don't know the law, and they don't know what crimes they have committed!"

I said to a few of them.

"What does a pig cage burn look like at the stake? Huang Na asked. That's what I asked him at the time.

"Pig cage burning at the stake is a very painful penal law, which is to put the person in a cage that resembles a modern seesaw structure, capable of turning, and then there is a fire on one side and a pool of water on the other.

”

"Put the offender inside, turn it around through a turning seesaw, and after a while, the one inside will first be on the torch and roasted for a while, then he will be put into the pool and submerged, and then he will be scooped up and roasted on the fire! And so on and so forth," the village chief told me unhurriedly.

"So what will happen to this person in the end? Xigui asked.

"Eventually, it's going to die, just slowly."

"Such a cruel criminal law directly puts people to death, and the private criminal law here is simply a phantom of feudal society!"

Huang Na was a little emotional at the moment.

They are mainly aimed at intentional homicide, rape of others, especially rape, but also because of the village chief's daughter, it is precisely because of such a feeling, then the criminal law in the village is relatively straightforward, the criminal person is naked and tied to a cross, and then the cross is hung high, and a firewood pile is piled under the cross, and then a fire is lit!

"Burn people?!" The four of us said in unison. No one was in the village just now, could it be ......!!!

"Hurry up!"

"Now they must be here for something related to this, such as the village rules, such as the lynching that the village chief just said!!

All of us began to shudder at the thought of this, and I even felt that they were like the terrible cannibals of primitive societies: "Eat human flesh, drink human blood, cook human heads!" ”

Speaking of which, all of us are in good spirits. There may be a tough battle for this!

At this time, Xigui said to us: "It's useless to be anxious now, call the captain, and let them come to reinforcements if there is an emergency!." ”

"If that's the case, then it's terrible, it's good that the people here don't have guns, otherwise I'm afraid it will develop into a really powerful force, in any case, we can only ask the national defense anti-terrorism special team to help us solve the case."

”

"The National Defense Anti-Terrorism Special Combat Team is a secret organization belonging to the state, with extremely strong individual combat capabilities, and its influence can be imagined.
