Chapter 123: Burial or Cremation
"Draw, we are all strong guys in our twenties and thirties, you can rest assured."
Looking at these strong guys in their twenties and thirties, Zheng Xiong looked unbelieving, this old man's appearance was said to be believed in his thirties and forties.
Facing Zheng Xiong's skeptical look, Minfu wanted to explain a thing or two, but he didn't know where to start.
"Withdrawal, we have all registered, if you don't believe it, you can check one or two."
"Check it out, forget it, so be it!"
Looking at the old appearance of everyone, Zheng Xiong is not interested, the perennial work is really great for an ordinary person, and compared with the people of this age in later generations, the gap is not clear in a few words.
is like a star on TV who went to the countryside to visit the elderly, and was called grandma with an old face, but the star was older, and the old one had to call his brothers and sisters, where to reason.
There is no comparison between people, Zheng Xiong is not a saint, even if he works hard to manage his own mess, he has done a lot of things in the pharmacy, and he is worthy of living a new life.
How difficult the people's livelihood is, Zheng Xiong doesn't dare to think about it, who can be better than whom.
Doctors perform surgery, one drag three configuration, seriously injured plus dying, there are dozens of people, one person surgery, three people assist, the problem is not big.
The little official ran over, and Zheng Xiong's requirements were all satisfied, not to mention Zheng Xiong's own capital, but the blacklist from the pharmacy alone also made him jealous.
People, in addition to moral constraints, many times are for themselves, such as raising children to prevent old age, including the piece of paper with blood.
It's about morality, and it's even more reasonable to put on this coat.
The matching process was relatively smooth, and a lot of people were called, so the matching was relatively fast.
The paired doctor led the person into the operation, and the chickens were slaughtered, and after the intestines were processed, they were sent to the doctor.
Zheng Xiong was idle for a while, and followed the little official to count the ants.
A few screams came from time to time in the camp, but they couldn't shake Zheng Xiong's mood of counting the ants.
Before the sun was about to set, all the surgeries were basically completed, and the whole camp was a little more alive and wailing.
The reason for doing it quickly has to be a simple and crude method, which saves a lot of time.
There was no place to stay in the camp, so Zheng Xiong left half of the people on duty, and the rest were brought back to the place where Yanmen was left for accommodation.
On the first day of surgery, more people can be left in case of one-on-one service, so as to provide better treatment.
Early the next morning, Zheng Xiong took the rested doctor to the camp for handover.
The yawning doctor endured his sleepiness and said to Zheng Xiong one by one.
"Withdrawal, a few people have undergone surgery, they have symptoms of high fever, shortness of breath, and the urine that appears is blood-red and white, some have already left, and some are about to die now."
How many people die in the world every day, who can come and grieve, are all passers-by in a hurry, and can only work hard to live a little longer, leaving without regrets.
"Are you still awake? If they are sober, ask them if they have any other wishes, and the official will convey them to them. ”
"Yes, my subordinates will ask."
"You guys go back and rest first, it's hard for a day and a night, let the rest take over."
"Thank you for the kindness."
After speaking, the doctor, who was already sleepy, hurriedly went back to rest, and the handover doctor inquired.
"Do you still have any wishes, we have mentioned them, if you have any wishes, you can put them forward to help convey them."
"Much~ thanks, I ~ cheap life~ one, no~ dare to work hard~ draw ~ worry, just begging~ can~ let the family~middle~old~can~can~receive~me~body~ death's bereavement, just ~ satisfied."
Before the doctor could say more, the wounded soldier died, and there were several other places in the same situation.
After listening to the doctor's advice, Zheng Xiong stood for a moment, collected his mood, and replied.
"You go somewhere else first and see if there's anything you need help with, and go and help."
"Yes, withdrawal."
After giving the order, Zheng Xiong found a few remaining sergeants.
"A few people have just left, and when they left, they made a small request, hoping that the bereavement pension could be given to the family, and they would help convey it."
"Yes."
Zheng Xiong, who should be mentioned, should not be said, should not say much, the affairs of the army, be cautious in words and deeds.
"Let's see what to do with these corpses."
"What we can do is to find a place to bury them, speaking of which they are okay, there are no more, set up a tombstone for them, and enjoy incense for a few years. Those who died on the battlefield were buried on the spot, except for their families, I'm afraid no one still remembers their existence! ”
Listening to the emotion of the little soldier, Zheng Xiong felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, the hero was nameless.
"You are all good, what if you are not famous, as long as you do it, you are heroes, people are lighter than feathers or death is heavier than Mount Tai."
"Thinking that Your Majesty has you to restore my Han family, all Han people will remember your merits, and your descendants will regard you as glory."
"After receiving the award, the little ones can't afford it, they just want the world to be peaceful as soon as possible, and they will be satisfied with a stable life."
"Well, if there are no taboos, a few of them have a place to check, and they can also burn their ashes to their roots, how to do it, you make your own decisions, and the official is just a mouthful."
After saying this, Zheng Xiong left, and the guards quietly watched Zheng Xiong leave.
Then with his companions, he carried out several wounded soldiers who had died, without too much sadness, only the sad empathy of the rabbit and the fox.
There are not many people who can treat people as people, and they don't have the same fate, Zheng Xiong left a deep impression on this little soldier, and it is really difficult to find an official who has the patience to talk so much to a small soldier.
Xiaobing informed his companion of Zheng Xiong's words, and the companion was silent, and then replied.
"The body is skinned, the parents who receive it, dare not destroy it, the beginning of filial piety, but it is also human nature to return to the roots, this is not on the battlefield, the enemy and I can't tell the difference, and I don't know how to get this situation."
"Since the Song and Yuan dynasties, cremation has been prohibited, isn't it inappropriate for us to do this?"
In the third year of Jianlong in the early Song Dynasty, the emperor ordered a ban on civil cremation because "in modern times, in accordance with the law of Yi and many cremations", but with little effect.
In the twenty-seventh year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, officials wrote to Song Gaozong: "There are so-called cremators in today's folk customs. Burnt and abandon donations... The burner was placed in the water", arguing that such a funeral custom was contrary to Confucianism and the system of science initially established by Zhou Dunyi, Zhang Zai, Shao Yong, and Ercheng.
Therefore, he asked for a ban on cremation, but this measure, which had already been promulgated, was equivalent to a dead letter in the people, and it did not have much effect when the two Song Dynasty destroyed the country.
The subsequent Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties also vigorously banned cremation, but they were all received from the people to varying degrees of cold reception, from the "Marco Polo's Travels" in Ningxia, Sichuan, Jiangnan and other places repeatedly banned cremation, to the Qing Dynasty "Rizhilu" in Hangzhou City accustomed to cremation customs, the people will ban cremation government orders as a deaf ear.
I have to say that the people in our country are somewhat rebellious, and modern people advocate cremation and want burial.
Who is right and who is wrong, who can tell clearly, different needs and different decisions are made.
