Chang Shuxin, a security policeman from the Chuyang Township Police Station, was filled with bitterness. As a grassroots rural cadre, he was most afraid of such mass incidents. If these villagers really got confused and swarmed them, the consequences would be disastrous.
He wears a 64 pistol on his waist, commonly known as a small smash gun. Its power is very limited. If the shot misses the vital point, it can choke even a drunkard. Moreover, this gun is considered an old antique and no longer used.
Over the years, even the rifling was almost worn away, and it was only equipped with five rounds of bullets.
Moreover, facing the villagers who gathered to make trouble, he not only did not dare to draw his gun, but also regretted bringing it out. Even if he fired a warning shot into the air, he would have to write a bunch of reports when he turned around. As for shooting at the villagers, he simply couldn't imagine it.
Not to mention whether it can be blocked, if something goes wrong and causes public pressure, no matter what the reason is, the person who bears the responsibility must be himself. There have been too many such examples in recent years, and I have seen many in newspapers.
Even if he didn't shoot, if he lost his gun during the conflict and someone took it away, he would still be in bad luck.
After receiving the alarm from Expert Chi, he came here on a broken motorcycle. Yesterday, someone fired a cannon and wielded a hoe to rob ancient tombs. They accidentally blew up three Han tombs at the same time, including the main tomb and the accompanying tombs on both sides.
The murals on the dome of the main tomb were also wiped out, and only some traces were seen on the remaining bricks. Since the criminal had explosives, he brought a gun.
The police force of the township police station is very tight. There are only five police officers in the formal establishment, including the director. The rest are hired personnel and co-police officers who cannot handle cases independently, and are in charge of the public security liaison officers of the villages below. When the alarm was received, the remaining police officers were
All the police officers were on duty, so he had no choice but to come when the director sent him.
By the time he arrived at the scene, the archaeological team had already been guarding the Han tombs, and the tomb robbers had long since disappeared. Where to catch them? Feiju Village occupied the valley to rob tombs and make money. Chang Shuxin had heard about it in the local area, but this kind of thing
It's very difficult to deal with. As long as you don't catch him on the spot, he belongs to the fellow villagers, so why can't he just go around and ransack your homes? The police officers are also ordinary people in the local area, and they don't want to suffer retaliation for no reason.
In fact, the archaeological team called the police as soon as they entered the village. They saw stolen cultural relics in the villagers' yards. However, the villagers argued that these were dug out during farming. For example, there were bricks in the ground. They didn't know what happened.
Can't he take it home and build a courtyard wall? It's hard for him to deal with it even though he knows these words are all lies.
For the grassroots police officers, there is an even more troublesome problem. They are not experts in cultural relics. To be honest, there are so many stolen items that they would not be able to recognize them even if they pass them by in front of them.
At that time, Director Chi sent by the superior cultural relics department asked him to cooperate. He led the archaeological team to go door-to-door to publicize the cultural relics protection law, and symbolically confiscated a batch of cultural relics. Finally, the situation was temporarily dealt with. Unexpectedly, a bigger trap appeared today.
.
In the past few years, Director Yuan has had a very good relationship with Director Fei Mi of Feiju Village. When did he come here so drunk that he spent the night in the guest house before going back? Not to mention Director Yuan Guitu, even Township Head Chen Qingyu was one
Virtue, there are many things that you would rather turn a blind eye to.
But today, expert Chi called the police and had to deal with it. The director also had to send someone to show off, just like the village cadres in front of him were also pretending to persuade the villagers. From the township chief to the director, they all knew what the archaeological team was doing.
It is reasonable and legal, especially for an influential and reputable expert like Director Chi. Although he cannot control government officials at all levels, if he catches any problem, he can just say a few words or express some official opinions after he goes back, and it will definitely be solved.
It's not something they, the township cadres, can afford, and they have to cooperate on the surface.
Chang Shuxin had a problem that she couldn't figure out, and she even wondered if the villagers in Feiju Village had taken the wrong medicine.
Since the archaeological team is here, those illegal activities cannot stop for a few days. If they have to make such a big noise, isn't it an obvious eyesore? A while ago, the archaeological team stayed in the village's guest house and paid the villagers every day.
A lot of labor is being excavated and the excavation is being carried out. On the surface, everything is going well, isn't it?
Taking a step back, even if you still want to do something secretly, wait until they leave, why bother to make trouble in such a hurry? A few days ago, he heard expert Chi popularize common sense about cultural relics protection, and he already knew the nature of the archaeological team's work very well. They just
We are here to clean up and rescue ancient tombs that have been robbed by villagers, and will not actively excavate undiscovered intact tombs.
According to expert Chi, under current technical conditions, even the most scientific excavations cannot preserve the cultural relics in ancient tombs intact. A large number of objects and information with cultural value will be destroyed, causing irreparable losses. Best
The way is to try not to disturb the sleeping of the ancestors. This is the cultural wealth left to future generations.
In many modern excavations, some of them were caused by urban construction touching on ancient monuments, so measures had to be taken, while most of the others were forced by tomb robbers and had to save the mess. The pain and regret are indescribable.
Chi Muduo only said that after completing the work here, he will call on the local government and law enforcement agencies to strengthen the protection of this wild mountainous area and severely punish criminal tomb robbers. However, the archaeological team does not have law enforcement power and cannot always stay here.
What's wrong with the villagers? Shouldn't the local government handle the next thing on its own?
It's impossible that the villagers haven't heard of this. Even though the archaeological team is surrounded by them and helpless in the mountains, if something goes wrong today and someone is hurt, and an expert like Director Chi has some shortcomings, the nature of the problem will completely change.
! It is no longer just a case of tomb robbery in the mountains where no one can be caught. The impact will be extremely bad and the consequences will be quite serious.
When the time comes, the relevant departments in the county, city, and even the province will not care whether they take it seriously or not. As long as they really come to investigate the incident strictly, Feiju Village will be asking for trouble. But before that, the first unlucky person must be Chang Shuxin who was present at the scene.
Even if the policeman barely restrained the villagers, he still offended the whole village today. No matter what, he will be blamed!
I really don’t understand whether these villagers collectively took the wrong medicine or were instigated by someone? Resentment and anger arose in Chang Shuxin’s heart. He had almost had enough! Many people shouted for justice every day.
They enforce the law and call for the rule of law in society, but it is their turn to be responsible for breaking the law, and they want to gather people to cause trouble without punishing the public, which seems so justified.
"The most damn annoying people are this kind of people!" - Chang Shuxin suddenly cursed in his heart. When he saw several villagers holding hoes and trying to rush up, he gritted his teeth and gave in anyway.
It's going to be unlucky for you and me, so I'll just help the manager instead of the bride, and besides, there's not much to marry in this village!
He finally pulled out the gun, clasped his hands and pointed towards the sky, and cursed: "Fuck, do you want to die? Get back here! You shameless people, you still have the nerve to talk about Feng Shui? You are digging in the mountains."
How many holes have been dug? Who dug it? I didn’t catch it. Don’t you know how to count it yourself? Do you understand the cultural relics protection law? Expert Chi has been telling you in vain these days? These underground are cultural relics that have been left to all descendants by our ancestors.
, is it from your family, you can blow it up if you want?...If you catch it, everyone will be shot, how dare you make trouble here?"
He was yelling, pulling out a gun, cursing and threatening. If law enforcement was carried out openly in a big city, this would be absolutely inappropriate. But for a small police officer in a remote mountainous area, in this situation, only this law enforcement style can be used to control the situation.
.
Seeing that Mr. Chang really dared to draw his gun, several villagers who were trying to go up with hoes yelled and stepped back. A woman in her fifties stepped forward, pointed at Chang Shuxin and reprimanded: "This is not a mountain."
Are you that douchebag from the Chang family over there? You're acting like a police officer. If you dare to threaten people with a gun, come on, shoot your aunt!"
Chang Shuxin did not talk to her and continued to shout loudly: "I'm here to enforce the law today. I don't care who is the one who breaks the law. Whoever breaks the law will be punished! What are you doing by copying the guy? You want to attack the police? You're really in a hurry. Bullets don't have long eyes."
!" Then he shouted to the village director in front of the crowd: "Femi, Director Fei! If you dare to let people rush over and take action today, smash my job and take my life, I will take your life first, even before you die.
Get on your back, all the bullets in this gun will fall on you!"
If Xie Xiaoxian were here, he would be stunned to see Chang Shuxin enforcing the law like this. He even threatened the village director with a gun. The village director was also startled, turned around and said: "Public Security Chang, why are you coming at me? You didn't see me here."
Are you stopping the folks?" At the same time, he waved his hands and winked, and the people around him calmed down a lot.
Chang Shuxin: "The villagers here elected you to be the director. If they didn't criticize you, who would? If you really wanted to stop it, this wouldn't happen today!... Director Fei, I remind you, if you really want to stop me,
The matter has become serious and the higher ups have to deal with it. The unlucky one is your village. Who knows who has shit in his crotch? Did you take the wrong medicine or go crazy and want to die?"
This sentence is quite correct. If you really dare to rush in and rob cultural relics and hurt the archaeological experts, if the matter becomes serious and a special operation is launched, there will definitely be no good fruit in Feiju Village. As the village director, it is impossible not to understand.
…
You Fang quietly walked out of the forest from the side with a big bag, stood behind the crowd, and listened carefully to people's conversations. Although the people in front were all aggressive, indignant and excited, the villagers standing behind the team looked very relaxed.
There were many people chatting and laughing with their hoes, almost like going to the market.
You Fang changed several places one after another to listen to the gossip, and Guukong greeted a villager: "Uncle Dabao, what's the excitement? I heard that an archaeological team came here. How big a fight, so many migrant workers need to be hired to dig out the excavations."
?”
The villager who had just finished chatting with his neighbor was standing on tiptoes and stretching his neck to look ahead. The villager named Fei Dabao was startled. He turned around and asked in surprise: "Where did you come from? How did you get here?"
Yes, you still know my name?"
You Fang: "Uncle Dabao, I don't remember. I came to your village to collect local specialties two years ago, and I stayed in the guest house run by Feicai's family."
The so-called local specialties are the cultural relics stolen by the villagers. He just heard people talking in the back. The villagers said that the archaeological team came to dig up their local specialties. Fei Cai's guest house cannot be left alone. And Fei Cai was obviously there.
In the crowd, he said to the people around him: "My guest house has been open for three years, and this is the first time that I have to drive out guests." He understood the general idea as soon as he thought about it.
You Fang had been riding in a farm vehicle and tractor for a day. He looked dusty and carrying a large travel bag in his hand, much like the cultural relics dealer who had frequented this village in recent years.
Fei Dabao looked at him for a few times, frowned and said: "You should wait in the village to collect local specialties, you can't come here!"
You Fang smiled and said: "I met an older lady on the road. She was almost shocked. She said she was from the archaeological team and was doing excavations in the valley behind. I entered the village with her and stopped by to see the excitement.
...There is no one in your village. The guest house doors are closed. Why are you all here? Oh, why are there police? Your village has stopped doing business recently?"
Fei Dabao glanced around and whispered: "It doesn't matter, business as usual. You can go to my house later. If you have good things, it's the one with the persimmon tree in the east courtyard of the village."
Just now, Fei Dabao and a neighbor were whispering at the end of the crowd, as if they were saying bad things about the village security guard Fei Cai. Fei Cai opened a guest house and intercepted all the guests who were collecting local specialties. He even asked for a share of the villagers' goods they sold.
The introduction fee was euphemistically called safety management. The two people discussed that it would be best to prevent the recipients from coming to their home, so as to make more money.
When You Fang heard this, he was both angry and happy. Did Fei Dabao really think that underground cultural relics trading was about collecting local specialties? He had no awareness of illegal risks and was greedy and stupid, so he deliberately targeted him and talked to him.
"The police are here to keep an eye on us. How can we do business? This trip is not at the right time." You Fang looked worried.
Fei Dabao comforted him: "Don't be afraid, there are still a group of people who receive goods living in the guest house, and they are waiting to leave. Public Security Chang was called by the archaeological team. Did you see it? We are going to drive the archaeological team away today."
All the folks are here to steal it."
You Fang nodded: "Well, they are a bit of an eyesore. It would be best to try to get rid of them. Why are Director Mi and Secretary Huo still blocking them in front?"
The director of Feiju Village is called Fei Mi, the party secretary is called Fei Huo, and the local villagers call them Director Mi and Secretary Huo. You Fang knew it after listening to a few villagers' chats, and now he calls them like this, as if he is very familiar with this place.
His conversation with Fei Dabao also attracted the attention of several villagers nearby. When they turned around and saw this foreigner, they also came over and asked about his origins.
There is no problem with You Fang making a temporary guest appearance as an cultural relic dealer who accidentally breaks into the valley due to special circumstances. There have been many such people in the village in recent years. Fei Dabao chuckled and said: "As for cadres, the play still needs to be sung, otherwise it will not be easy to talk to the township chief.
Let me explain, in fact, we were all brought here by Director Mi just to watch the show."
At this moment, Chang Shuxin drew a gun and warned Director Mi. What he said could be clearly heard later. You Fang frowned and said: "Then what the police said makes sense. If you make such a big deal, it will do harm to yourself."
It’s no good. If something goes wrong and attracts outside attention, we will have to be careful when collecting local products from now on.”
The honest and honest Fei Dabao had a bad smile on his face: "Don't worry, we drove the archaeological team away. It has nothing to do with tomb robbing. We want them to leave in shame. I guess there must be an expert to guide the director. Just wait and see the show."
Another villager next to him also gloated: "If you don't sell them food, don't give them shelter, and then make the director of the pool stink, then drive him away in disgrace. Look, the show has begun!" Then a few people next to him said:
Stimulated by some unknown excitement, they began to push forward. They didn't bother to talk to You Fang, and everyone stretched their necks to look inside.
You Fang also pretended to find a good seat and want to watch the fun, but disappeared.
…
Hearing Chang Shuxin's threats and questions, Director Mi coughed and said: "Public Security Chang, we know the Cultural Relics Protection Law. Director Chi has been seriously promoting it for so many days. How can we do anything illegal?... But today, folks
That's not why we came to make trouble. Since you even took out your gun, I will expose the scandal... Fei Cai, call Xiaochun, the waiter at the guest house, over here!"
Fei Cai led an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl to the front. The girl named Xiaochun lowered her head with a sad look on her face, glanced at the opposite side, pointed at Chi Muduo and said: "That's him!
Last night he asked me to bring water to the room, gave me money to sleep with him, and said he was the leader of some unit... I didn't agree, he had already locked the door and hugged me..."
The surroundings were very quiet, but she shouted loudly, and the villagers' emotions suddenly boiled. Not only did they have a good show to watch, but they could also hear dirty jokes on the spot. They were all so excited that they shouted one after another.
: "An archaeological expert said they were promoting the protection of cultural relics, but they actually came to harm our girls in the mountains. We must not let them go!"
This group of people is really good at playing, with all the meat and vegetables! This kind of thing is too lethal. Even if there is no real evidence and the matter is finally settled, the reputation of Chi Muduo and the entire archaeological team will be completely ruined in the local area.
It would be a shame for Chi Muduo's identity to be involved in a lawsuit with this kind of person in this kind of place.
Moreover, for this kind of one-on-one accusation, it is legally easy to settle the matter due to lack of evidence, but it is difficult to counter-sue the other party. Chi Muduo will probably be driven away with the archaeological team in despair. It is difficult for anyone to say anything. It will be embarrassing to say too much.
Chi Muduo's face turned the color of pig liver, and his hands were shaking. He pointed at Xiaochun and said, "You are spitting blood!"
The sudden accident made Chang Shuxin at a loss. She put away the pistol, frowned and asked: "That one named Xiaochun! You said Director Shangchi did that to you in the room last night. How did you do that?"
Why don’t you call someone?”
Xiaochun covered her face and cried: "I was so frightened that I couldn't control my hands and feet. He took off my clothes and pushed me down on the bed..." According to her description, the incident turned out to be a so-called rape without resistance.
It would be difficult to define it legally.
The mood of the surrounding villagers became even higher, and they all shouted to drag the beast out. On the contrary, Fei Huo, Fei Cai and other village cadres stopped in front and tried their best to dissuade them. Director Mi spread his hands with a frown on his face: "Public Security Chang, originally the villagers wanted to drag the beast out.
The reputation of the girl’s family, I don’t want to say it out loud, just to teach that beast a lesson. If things are like this, you should take them all away quickly. If I can’t control the situation, I can’t bear the responsibility.”
