Chapter 607 What's the Use of Excellence
In the quiet little mountain village, the sound of crying was deafening.
When Lu Chaochao and his companions went over, they saw that the women were all sitting on the ground, pounding their chests and crying.
The men in the village couldn't even hold their tobacco pipes. They stumbled in front of the ox carts, crying heartbreakingly.
On the ox cart, there were several boys wearing women's clothes, with dull eyes and blood all over their bodies.
Someone had the courage to lift up the hem of her skirt, but her eyes went dark and she fainted.
"My Chen family has only one male like this! Village chief, what happened?"
"Aren't you going to school?" The old ladies slapped their legs and cried, as if the sky was falling.
"Someone come, help me. Amitabha, please bless me, Bodhisattva, please bless me. This is the son my family had only born after drowning six expensive daughters. Who could be so cruel as to not let even a child go?" He kept saying Amitabha and drowning six daughters, as if he was not telling fortunes.
"Grandma, grandma... wuwuwu, it hurts so much, my grandson is in so much pain. Please save me..." The boy in the car clutched his grandmother's hand and cried so hard that he started bleeding from under his body again.
"Hurry up and call the village doctor." Immediately, some villagers hurriedly went to call the doctor.
The crowd surrounded the village chief, pulling and pushing him: "Village chief, you have to give us an explanation. These are the family's gold nuggets. You took them out safely, but why did you come back..." As he spoke, he started to cry.
The village chief's face was pale. He looked up and saw Lu Chaochao and others watching the show, so he didn't care about keeping the family's disgrace private.
"Shut up now, pack up your things and leave the village."
"Hurry up and go as far as possible." The village chief roared in a deep voice.
"Village chief, what do you mean by this? You have harmed our precious child, and you want us to leave the village?" Someone immediately expressed his dissatisfaction and questioned.
Seeing their angry faces, the village chief raised his hand and sighed heavily.
"If you don't leave now, you won't be able to leave!"
The village chief's face was full of fear when the officials delivered the news to various villages. It was once said that girls' schools only accept girls. If a man pretends to be someone else, his roots will be cut off and he will be held accountable.
At that time, no one in the village took it seriously.
Boys can inherit the family business and are more valuable than girls. Ten girls are not worth one boy.
My son is precious to me. Who can torture him?
The village chief felt uneasy at the time, but when he thought of the great scholar and spiritual practice, this was a matter of great honor to the family. So I did it bravely...
Who would have thought that when it came time to enroll, the legendary immortal who could fly would personally select the students.
The immortal saw through him at first sight.
The village chief felt that the immortal's look was so chilling that his whole body was shaking.
The Immortal was kind, and his first words were: "Leave now, I will pretend you have never been here."
The village chief was about to take the children away humbly, but those children, who usually bullied others in the village, said on the spot: "Master, I am a boy, let me be your student."
"What can girls accomplish? They are all money-losing goods, cheap girls."
"That's right, Immortal. This money-loser is not even worth a pig. In the future, she will be a toy for us men." Wang Tianci, who replaced Wang Zhaodi, said proudly.
The immortal was stunned by the constant talk that I was a boy and I was noble, and girls were as cheap as animals.
Some of the people around frowned slightly, while others echoed loudly.
She even clamored to give the girl's place to her son.
The situation started to get out of control.
What shocked him the most was that Wang Tianci was spoiled by his family, or perhaps the life of a girl was not worth mentioning in their eyes. Although it has not grown yet, it has already rotted from the root.
The immortal was stunned for a moment, and he was very proud of the people around him who cheered and supported him.
"Master, you see, everyone supports the boy to replace the girl."
"Why not just agree to it?"
"Besides, what's so good about girls? What's the point of being smart, capable, and hardworking? They'll get married in the future and become men's playthings, worthless things. I'm different, I'm a boy. I can bring honor to the family and carry on the family line."
There was a sudden noise all around.
The village chief's heart sank. It was all over. Today the immortal would definitely use them as a punishment to scare the people! Otherwise, things will get out of control.
The immortal attacked without hesitation. The county magistrate stood aside with a sullen face and said, "Come here, the prisoner's family members will be punished together. Go and execute him immediately!"
The village chief hurried back via a shortcut, his face pale with fright.
When everyone heard this, their faces turned pale.
"The immortal is so confused... How can our Tianci survive? The roots of my Wang family will be cut off!" The woman cried miserably.
As he said that, he kicked Zhaodi, who was curled up on the edge.
"You stupid girl, it's because of you that my son suffered because of me taking your place. It's all your fault! Even if you die ten times, it's not enough!"
On the ox cart, Tianci was crying and snotting: "Why? Why can't I live a good life and have to live with money-losing goods?"
"Mom, kill that money-loser and throw him into the baby ditch."
"If I can't live a good life, then she can't either!"
The woman immediately grabbed Zhaodi and tore her apart. Zhu Mo flew forward, kicked the woman away, and slammed his body heavily against the wall.
Lu Chaochao waved to her, and Zhaodi hid behind her without hesitation.
"I didn't do anything. I clearly didn't do anything." Zhaodi finally couldn't help herself and burst into tears.
Lu Chaochao's face looked extremely ugly.
Just as the conflict was about to break out, the sound of horse hooves was heard outside the village.
"The government is here to question us..." Someone shouted, and the old, the weak, women and children rushed out of the door and ran towards the mountain.
The village was suddenly in chaos, with people crying, making noises, and running away.
In such remote and poor areas, the village rules are often more important than those of the government. Even when something big happens, they don’t report it to the officials, but only to the village chief, and the matter is resolved within the village.
This also led to the death of countless baby girls in the village.
Gradually, they began to ignore the law and rules, and formed their own system in the village.
This is also the most troublesome part of girls' education.
If the government fails to take over, strike hard and impose severe punishment, I am afraid the situation will never be reversed. There will still be countless innocent baby girls dying.
Women's education cannot help women improve their status, but instead becomes a stepping stone for men.
If anyone is found to have replaced someone else’s place, they must be severely punished!
In order to make an example of someone, their village is bound to be severely punished.
Some of the old, weak and sick ran to the mountains, and the young men in the village tried to fight back with hoes.
But soon, he knelt at the feet of the officer.
"Wang Tianci, Wang Zongbao, Li Tianze... Wang Xianzu... family members of the prisoners, please stand up!" The police officer rode on a tall horse and read out a string of names.
All the villagers knelt on the ground trembling with fear.
The officer saw Lu Chaochao and others. They all had extraordinary auras and the guards behind them were wearing armor. It seemed that... they were from Beijing?
"How many are you?"
Zhu Mo raised his head proudly: "This is Princess Zhaoyang, who was personally conferred by His Majesty."
"This is the Prince of Jingxi."
"We are passing through here and staying overnight in the village."
When these words were spoken, the villagers looked at each other in horror.
Princess? ?
