Chapter 256 Immortal Class
When school started at the end of August, Xie Hongdan was the only one absent from the class.
"What happened to Jie Hongdan?"
Wei Siyu shook her head.
Liu Qingqing said, "Ask the instructor."
If you fail to report suddenly, your student qualification may be revoked.
The counselor hadn't received any news either: "I'll contact the brigade where Jie Hongdan is and see."
After making this connection, I learned that something big had happened in the village where Jie Hongdan lived.
More than fifty villagers died at the same time.
It has been classified as a major case by the local authorities.
When everyone was worried about her, Xie Hongdan appeared in the dormitory with a sallow face.
"Xie Hongdan, you're finally here. What happened? The instructor said something happened in your village. Many people died. We were all scared to death."
Xie Hongdan looked at the three people who surrounded her, her eyes reddened and tears fell down.
Liu Qingqing and the others' hearts beat fast and they hugged the man in their arms.
When I touched Jie Hongdan's flesh, I found that he was much thinner than before the summer vacation. When I pinched him, it felt like his bones were covered with skin.
Xie Hongdan cried bitterly, and after she had cried enough, she took a nap. Only then did she talk about the bad things that happened in her village during this summer vacation in a disjointed manner.
During the summer vacation, she just arrived in the village and discovered something unusual.
The uncles, aunts and uncles who usually chat and gossip no longer gather together.
They went to Quanshan's yard in the village to gather.
Quanshan has always been a well-known idler in the village. He doesn't support his mother, doesn't marry, and works intermittently.
He has always had a bad reputation in the village.
Xie Hongdan didn't take it seriously and just thought that the villagers were organizing people to conduct ideological mobilization for Quanshan.
It was not until half a month later that Xie Hongdan accidentally learned that Quanshan had become the spokesperson for "God" in the village.
And most of the people in the village still believe it.
This includes her parents and many relatives and friends.
She simply couldn't believe it.
Quanshan has always been a person who just eats and waits for death. He has never had any sense of responsibility. We must have taken some kind of magic potion to believe the lies of such a person.
After several days of investigation, Xie Hongdan found out that it was a man named Chen Tiandao from the neighboring Jianxing Brigade who came to the village and claimed that he was the founder of "Tianyi Dao" twenty years ago.
Come with memories of the past.
He had already reincarnated 98 times before, and this was his last reincarnation. Once the number of 99 was complete, he would return to the immortal class.
In fact, the villagers might not believe this alone.
But there is a "believer" named Quanshan who keeps helping him brag about various "miracles", and there is also one thing that can prove that Chen Tiandao is a god, which is curing diseases.
Jie Hongdan didn't know whether it was true or not, but her mother believed it and said that Chen Tiandao saved the person who was not even cured in the hospital. He just touched the head and recited some spells, and Lu Laoer's youngest son was cured.
With this "miracle" witnessed by everyone around, half of the people's doubts were dispelled.
Chen Tiandao had said earlier that "the world is going to be destroyed, disasters are about to break out, these are all signals from God to everyone. If you don't believe in Tiandaoism, you will be destroyed along with the world." And so on. It happened that this time was indeed not peaceful, with frequent disasters in various places, which seemed to confirm his words.
Many people did believe it and started spending money to "buy peace."
After a few days, it seemed that not enough people were buying Ping An.
Chen Tiandao and Quanshan began to promote the "world destruction theory" again, saying that Chen Tiandao's immortal friends in heaven would send a divine ship from heaven to pick them up. If the believers in the village wanted to avoid the disaster, they could buy tickets and follow Chen Tiandao.
Xie Hongdan felt that she could not wait any longer. Her mother was a little possessed, and her two brothers and sister-in-law were also crazy. They refused to work and did not want food. The autumn harvest was about to begin, and all the men, women, and children in the village gathered at Quanshan's house to chant spells, waiting for the "magic ship" to pick them up. Even the team leader had no mind to work. They were all crazy.
She decided to report to the police and ask them to arrest the man.
As a result, before she even left the village, she was tied up by her mother who loved her the most.
It turned out that Quanshan had been keeping an eye on the college student who had returned from Jicheng in the village. In their minds, the college student might not be easy to deceive, so they had to keep a close eye on him.
The result was just as they expected, after a beating.
Jie Hongdan was gagged by Jie Xu and Jie Mu and tied up in her room.
Nothing happened to Jie Hongdan after she was captured, but her parents still doted on her and wanted to take her "on board".
Jie Hongdan was on the verge of collapse. It was no use crying and shouting.
That night, my family took me to the river in a line.
Everyone believed what Chen Tiandao said about the invisible fairy ship. Because Jie Hongdan struggled so hard, his family was reluctant to tie him up too tightly.
Because they were busy holding her down, Xie Hongdan, her parents, and one of her brothers were pushed to the back. As for the rest of her family, they were already anxious to "get on board" first.
Those who went into the river first had already begun to struggle, but as more and more people pushed forward, those who wanted to run back were pushed in front of them. The water was in chaos, with cries for help and splashing sounds. Some people choked on the water and came to their senses, while some people still stubbornly believed that they would go to heaven until their death.
Chen Tiandao and Quanshan slipped away when the first group of villagers went down to the river.
Jie Hongdan's little niece was only six years old. She didn't know what they were here for, but she was a little scared that the most promising aunt in the family was captured by her father, grandmother and grandfather. Taking advantage of the chaos, she wanted to untie the rope on Jie Hongdan, but failed, so she went to help Jie Hongdan tear off the black tape on her mouth.
After the stuffing and tape in Jie Hongdan's mouth were removed, she had already collapsed. Many people had already been thrown into the village river. After she spoke out to remind people, the few people who realized they had been deceived were busy saving themselves or others.
By the next day, nearly half of the villagers had died, including Xie Hongdan's eldest brother and his wife. Fearing they would miss the boat, they hurriedly took their youngest son and died first. Also among them were her grandfather and uncle's family...
Liu Qingqing and the other two were shocked and looked at each other.
No wonder the crackdown on feudal superstition was so severe at this time.
It is hard to imagine that in such a serious era, there is still such a crazy cult organization, not to mention the chaotic two months ago.
During the tenth month of the Cultural Revolution, most of the initial decisions were probably made for the benefit of the people and to stabilize the country.
It's just that the back is tilted.
