Ye Su did not stay in this village for too long. After quickly completing the investigation of the two children and the woman, he left the village with Shentu Yunyi and the other six.
Until he left, Ye Su didn't make any promises to the old village chief who was willing to go all out, although he did want to help the old village chief change the fate of the entire village.
But there are some things that even with Ye Su's current influence, it is simply impossible to do.
He could help the village build a direct road to the countryside by contacting Li Qingmei or the family businesses of other students in the class through donations, and then find other ways to diversify the village's income. Ye Su believed
, as long as he is willing, the village will have a new look in a few years.
But then what?
In the entire northwest region, there are only eight thousand villages in this impoverished mountainous area. How much can Ye Su do with his own strength?
When leaving the village, Ye Su almost couldn't help but feel defeated under the expectant eyes of the old village chief, but in the end he still endured and did not look back again. The number of poor people in the entire country of 90 million, this
The numbers are so huge that even a cultivator like Ye Su feels desperate.
This is the first time since he entered the world to practice spiritual practice that he has felt so inadequate!
There are too many things that cannot be solved by strong force.
No matter how powerful a monk is, the only thing he can do, or the most convenient thing he can do, is to destroy.
Destruction is easy, but construction... is too difficult.
On the way to the second village, Ye Su felt a little heavy as he recalled the previous conversation with the old village chief.
The old village chief didn't know what kind of official he was, but he would rather expose the business of buying and selling women than tell Ye Su about it. He was completely desperate, even if Ye Su really wanted to arrest him.
He also wants to draw real attention to the idea by exposing this serious disease.
Ye Su could somewhat understand the old village chief's mood, but he couldn't interfere too much in many things.
After all, this is the world of ordinary people, and ordinary people's problems must ultimately be solved by ordinary people.
The only thing he could do was to report what he saw to the prince through private channels after returning to the Special Operations Office.
But it is unclear what kind of changes this country will undergo.
Even if the crown prince wholeheartedly hopes that the country will be strong and prosperous, specific people will ultimately need to take care of specific things.
No matter how good a policy or idea is, if grassroots officials distort the essence, it will only turn into evil things that harm the country and the people.
In the final analysis, it still depends on whether the entire country's system is suitable and whether it can be maintained healthily.
With such complicated emotions, Ye Su led Shentu Yunyi and six other people in helicopters to dozens of other villages with missing persons.
These villages are all spread across the northwest boundary. Although the distance between each other is not particularly far, together they are spread over a radius of hundreds of kilometers. Therefore, even if Ye Su and the others are extremely efficient,
The speed was extremely fast, but after visiting all the villages with missing persons records, it was already night.
Coming out of the last village with a missing person record, the look on Ye Su's face became more solemn.
These villages are all poor villages similar to the first village. Even in the villages with the best conditions, people can only live in brick houses. The vast majority of villages are still dominated by adobe houses.
In today's era, it is really unimaginable that there are such large areas of poverty-stricken areas.
As the village chief in the first village said, in such a poor place, which girl would really want to marry?
Apart from exchanging daughters and marrying each other, the only way... is to buy...
These people were all very simple and honest, which Ye Su could tell through the spiritual sense of the monks and the eyes of these farmers.
The excessive poverty makes these people willing to share, unselfish, and so simple that you can't see the ugliness and filth between people in big cities at all from them.
But it is this group of people who are the nightmare of many trafficked women and the final place of sale for those trafficked women. It is precisely because of their existence that the sinful business of human trafficking has continued to flourish.
Good and evil... have they ever really been able to distinguish clearly?
"Boss, did you find anything?"
Seeing Ye Su's dazed look, Shentu Yunyi hesitated for a while and couldn't help but ask.
They had visited so many villages with Ye Su, but Shentu Yunyi and the others found nothing. They were confused at this time, and Ye Su remained silent, which really made them stupefied.
Enough.
"Shentu, tell me...what can we do to make these people's lives better?"
Ye Su did not answer Shentu Yunyi, but asked another question.
Shentu Yunyi was stunned and turned to look at Wei Feng and the other five in astonishment, not knowing how to answer Ye Su's sudden question.
"Boss, if you just want to make their lives better, it's very simple. The 19th Bureau has enough funds every year. You have the right to use these funds at your discretion. The villages we have visited,
There are about 20,000 people in total, and allocating special funds of almost 100 million a year can change the lives of all of them. But... it's useless."
Wei Feng scratched his head and said.
"It's useless? Yes... It's useless... If this country cannot make some fundamental changes, then this situation will inevitably exist forever. Forget it, let's stop thinking about this and get down to business."
Ye Su shook his head, the dazed look on his face disappeared, and a solemn expression reappeared.
"It's basically certain that they are indeed practicing the evil technique I mentioned. However, the people who abducted these women and children from the village were not those who practiced this technique, but those who were under their control.
Ordinary people! Judging from the aura fluctuations perceived in the homes of each missing person, some of them were abducted at the same time. And the evil aura remaining in these villages is mixed and impure, each one
The strength of the aura fluctuations in the village is also quite different. So it should be that the practitioners of the technique have controlled the consciousness of ordinary people. There is only so much that can be known for the time being."
"Can you follow the aura fluctuations to find the person who practices the evil technique?"
Shentu Yunyi continued to ask.
"No, the aura is too weak. It is so weak that there are only some fragmentary remnants left in these villages. The fluctuations of the aura of ordinary people are far from strong enough to last for a long time. So tonight I will separate the six of you.
Demarcating a range will also leave a sample of that aura in your sea of consciousness. Don't take any rest tonight. Just patrol within the range I have demarcated for you. Once you find a similar aura appearing, remember not to alert the snake.
Just notify the others, and then... we'll follow them!"
