Dajing Village became lively again, but this time it was different from the panic and anxiety last time, this time it was more about watching the excitement.
People from half of the village surrounded the woods on the edge, and people from Xiaojing Village also ran over to watch.
Facing Bai Shan and these yamen servants, some people still couldn't hide their hatred and fear, but this didn't affect them watching the fun.
Some young people even climbed onto the trees and poked their heads to look into the middle.
Jia Wu and Jia Dalang, father and son, were escorted to kneel beside them, while the yamen servants were digging the soil with hoes and shovels.
After digging for a long time, they finally found some traces, so everyone began to sweep away the soil carefully...
Zhao Shan had been buried there for ten years, and it was already a pile of bones.
The yamen servants dug out the bones and threw them on, while the county yamen's clerks squatted beside them and put together...
Some of the little finger bones could not be found, but most of the bones could be turned out, and after splicing, it could still be seen that it was a person.
The Zhao family who came along saw it, no matter what they could see from the bones, they jumped up and were about to cry, but were stopped by County Captain Dong and his men, and scolded: "We just put together the bones, if you mess up, turn around I'll let you fight it out, and there's another charge of obstructing official duties."
The Zhao family didn't dare to rush forward.
The person I haven't found for ten years is such a villain, how much affection can the Zhao family have for him
They shouted and cried so actively, not because of feelings, but because they wanted compensation.
But they also deserve compensation.
Wu Zuo carefully inspected the bones, and saw that there were many cuts on the skull, so he said to Bai Shan, "He was hacked to death."
The Zhao family cried loudly, "Wow, wow, wow".
Bai Shan nodded, and asked Jia Dalang and Jia Wu who were kneeling beside him: "Is this the skeleton?"
Jia Dalang ignored him, Jia Wu repeatedly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, this is it."
Bai Shan looked around the corpse, and said to Jia Wu, "You can sleep well for the past ten years."
Jia Wu hurriedly said: "I, I can't sleep, my conscience has always been troubled, my lord, it's none of my business, people are killed by this rebellious son."
"Whether it has anything to do with you is not up to you, but the law has the final say, even those who don't understand the law, they can judge whether this matter has nothing to do with you," Bai Shan pointed A circle of onlookers asked them, "Tell me, does this matter have anything to do with Jia Wu?"
Shouting loudly: "Coherence!"
Everyone stared at Jia Wu and Jia Dalang angrily.
In their view, the reason why their family members were arrested and the village has become a well-known "bandit den" is because of Jia Dalang, and Jia Dalang became so evil because of Jia Wu, so they hated their father and son to death There are two.
However, Jia Wu has always been a villain. Although the villagers hate him, they dare not do anything to him. At most, they scold him in private, but they dare not let him hear.
Bai Shan looked back at Jia Wu, "You heard me," he said in a deep voice with cold eyes, "You covered up Jia Dalang's murder and also helped him dispose of the corpse, this is the same crime."
When Jia Wu heard this, his face turned pale, and he couldn't help taking two steps on his knees, and shouted: "No, no, my lord, I can't help it, he threatened me with a knife, and if he wanted to say cover up, many people in the village would cover up They robbed people from Xiaoliu Village, why didn't you arrest them?"
The villagers couldn't help shouting, and someone shouted in the crowd: "Jia Wu, don't stop us if you are dying..."
"Kill him to death. The reason why the village has become like this is because of their father and son."
Immediately, someone threw clods and stones at Jia Wu, and someone fished in troubled waters and threw them at Bai Shan. Daji knocked off the flying stones with a wave of his scabbard, and looked sharply at the direction where the stones came from.
Bai Shan's face darkened, and he shouted: "Bold, this county is talking about Zhao Shan's death, the looting of Xiaoliu Village has been judged, and the county has arrested everyone who should be arrested. Why, you are the same as Jia Wu Do you think this matter is not over yet, and go to jail for a while?"
When everyone heard this, they didn't dare to throw stones at them any more.
Bai Shan raised his chin slightly and said: "The reason why such a tragedy happened in Xiaoliu Village, and why your Dajing Village and Xiaojing Village became what they are today, is all due to ignorance, ignorance and heartlessness. Virtue, people's customs are impure, so many evil thoughts are born, and the evil thoughts are put into action and become evil things... "
When Bai Shan said this, many villagers were ashamed and angry. If this word spread, it would be even more difficult for the two villages to gain a foothold here in the future.
"So next, the county will tell you what is wrong, what is right, and what is not allowed by the law." Bai Shan looked at them one by one and said: "The folk customs are not good, so we will change them. We are short-sighted. Let's learn, who is born a wicked person?"
Bai Shan pointed to Jia Dalang who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Could it be that he was fierce and surly from birth, destined to be a murderer? Or is it obvious that the children in your family are rushing to become bandits as soon as they are born?"
"It's not true. The sages have said that the son does not teach the father's fault. This county just asks you, are the young people in your family who have committed crimes with Jia Dalang, have they been punished by the family?"
In the crowd, many people lowered their heads.
More than one-third of the households in a place have committed crimes, such as robbery. How bad is the folk customs
And the folk customs are like this, which is a bad custom accumulated from the previous generation, or even the previous generation. If you want to say how good their parents and elders are, Bai Shan doesn't believe it.
Comparing with Qili Village in Dali Village, you will know that folk customs are passed down from generation to generation.
For the people in this area, the heavy code has already been used, and the next step is to educate.
"All of you have failed to fulfill your responsibilities as parents, and he," Bai Shan pointed to Jia Wu, who was already pale on the ground, said: "He is one of the most dereliction of duty fathers."
"Do you think that as a father, you can bully, beat and kill your children at will?" Bai Shandao: "Do you think that as a husband, you can beat and humiliate your wife? Not to mention secular ethics, both of these are against the law!"
"Jia Wu has committed four crimes. Hiding his son's murder and assisting Jia Dalang in disposing of the corpse is just one of them. His worst crimes are unkindness, beating his wife and humiliating his son, and ruining the morale!"
Someone in the crowd couldn't help asking: "My lord, is he going to jail?"
Bai Shan: "He doesn't need to go to jail, according to the law, he should be exiled."
Everyone took a step back in fright, exile is more terrifying than imprisonment.
But everyone was a little pleased, they looked at Jia Wu gloatingly, thinking that if he was not in Dajing Village, there would be much less criticism in the village.
Bai Shan glanced at their faces and sighed, it seems that things like folk customs really have a long way to go.
Bai Shandao: "Your Jia Lizheng has been imprisoned for covering up Jia Dalang and others. The county will assign another Lizheng to you. From now on, you must learn the law from Lizheng and turn the people around."
Bai Shan threatened: "If you don't want to commit crimes and go to jail in the future, or if the people's morals are corrupt and your children can't get married, just listen to the lectures with Li Zheng honestly, and the county will come to see you from time to time."
