Chapter 303 Torn fragments

Guang Ren circled around like a whirlwind, came back and said solemnly: "Within a two-kilometer radius, there are at least more than 3,000 remains, many of which are children's remains. Could it be that a massacre occurred here?"

In fact, on the way there, they discovered some human remains buried under the sand. Considering that this is not a peaceful place, wars occur from time to time, and the desert is a dangerous area, it is not too surprising that there are victims.

But it is obviously too abnormal to have so many remains concentrated in one place. Shi Shuangcheng's face turned pale and he said, "Can you determine the time of death?"

Guang Ren: "About fifteen to sixteen years ago."

Hua Zhenxing: "I know what's going on. These are all refugees from back then..."

The great riot that took place sixteen years ago swept across the entire country. It was a vendetta provoked by external forces. Many places were littered with corpses. Many people in Wage City in the south are trying to cross the desert to Banda City in the north to seek refuge; while many refugees in Banda City have the same idea and cross the Madarao River to escape to Wage City through the desert.

Some people should have reached their destination, but many others never made it out of the desert.

The most tragic time and place is probably when people fleeing from the north and the south meet in the middle of the desert. They are all fleeing to the other side, but they learn from the people they meet that the other side is also hell.

Although it was the dry season, most of the refugees had no transportation and had to walk across the desert. It was impossible to carry enough food and water. Desperate people gathering in the middle of the desert may also trigger a fight for survival supplies. The road that Hua Zhenxing and others took happened to pass through the gathering place of the refugees in the desert sixteen years ago...

After hearing Hua Zhenxing's speculation and looking at the numerous bones scattered among the sand dunes and water pools, everyone fell silent for a moment. The drizzle stopped, Shi Shuangcheng also put away the bamboo magpies, and they walked quickly through the area in silence.

After a long time, the sand under his feet gradually turned into gravel. Shi Shuangcheng suddenly asked: "Hua Zhenxing, what was that commotion you mentioned?"

What's the riot about? Since Hua Zhenxing can remember, there have been constant riots in the country, large and small, and in Fesuo Port, where he lives, people die in various accidents almost every day. If it were in Dongguo, these would be serious and vicious public security cases, but here almost no police would enforce the law.

Even so, the great riot that swept the country sixteen years ago still makes everyone who experienced it feel palpitated. Hua Zhenxing had just been born at that time, and many things were told by others.

The country of Kilili only became independent in the 1960s. It was originally a geographical concept and was successively classified as a colony of several Western powers. In the 1970s and 1980s after its independence, when the United States and Mauro were competing for supremacy, the Kingdom of Gilly ushered in a period of golden development.

The prosperity at that time was superficial in many aspects. In order to exploit local resources, consolidate the international camp and influence, and achieve better control in politics, economy, and culture, the original sovereign power groups invested in and established some enterprises, A group of local forces have been fostered. But no matter how you say it, the country of Kilili did usher in a rare period of rapid development at that time.

The situation changed in the late 1980s and early 1990s. This seemingly prosperous development stalled, and control and plunder became increasingly serious. Within the country, more and more people are beginning to realize how oppressed and exploited this country has been.

There are also growing calls to develop national industry, achieve economic and political independence, and get rid of new forms of colonial control. In response to this situation, the method used by the original suzerain power group was to pry open cracks within Jili.

If the country's society is torn into different groups and falls into endless internal friction, then it will be unable to struggle anymore.

How to tear society apart? The most common and common approach is to design a set of templates and then look for conflicts. If you can't find them, you can create them yourself. The two parties in the conflict are given preset labels, with a label representing a certain group, and then the conflict is expanded to between the two groups. This operation is repeated in multiple directions until the society is torn apart.

For example, there is a conflict between Zhang San and Li Si. The normal way of cognition and handling is that this is a matter between the two of them. The first thing is to clearly distinguish the right and wrong between the two. The wrongdoer should be punished and educated, and the victim should be punished. Get compensation and comfort.

However, some people used another trick, labeling Zhang San as a person of tribe A, a person from land A, and a person of type A, and labeling Li Si as a person of tribe B, a person from land B, and a person of type B. Then propagate among type A people that type B people are oppressing type A people, and among type B people, they propagate that type A people are oppressing type B people, tearing everyone into two groups and provoking internal conflicts and conflicts. Hatred.

As for who Zhang San and Li Si are, why they conflicted, whether there was a conflict, whether there were even these two people, and what the truth is, it doesn't matter to those who provoked the conflict. Their purpose is just to tear apart a certain society.

This method of tearing society apart is usually vertical and within the same class, rather than horizontally and between different classes. Through vertical social tearing, it can actually cover up the real social differences between different classes. source of conflict.

It is difficult to heal a society after it is torn apart. A or B will be torn apart again by the same means. In the past, most of the daily conflicts in Fiso Port were characterized by neighborhood gangs, and the entire society has been completely fragmented.

So what role does the person who provokes the conflict play at this time? They have become the speakers who guide the country and the saviors from above.

So in many conflict incidents, how to tell whether there is such a direction? There are two judgment criteria. First of all, to borrow the words of a great man, has anyone forcibly twisted the contradictions among the people into contradictions between ourselves and the enemy? Secondly, is there anyone who forcibly labels both parties in occasional, individual conflicts as a certain group, and then provokes division and confrontation in the group?

Until now, Kilili Country has not established a real resident registration system, but sixteen years ago, with the assistance and instigation of unknown forces, it actually issued passports to all citizens that most people had no need for.

From the perspective of living habits, cultural traditions, and blood relationships, there is actually no real ethnic division in Kilili Country. However, in the officially issued passports, all citizens are divided into different ethnic groups, roughly based on their appearance. Well, in fact, only the instigator himself knows the true standard.

At this point, Hua Zhenxing asked again: "Have you ever seen brothers with different nationalities on their passports? There were many such things back then. Just because they lived far away and didn't look alike, someone's The nose is a little flatter.”

When and where did the riots start? No one could tell for sure afterward. It might have been because of the inconspicuous civil conflicts that occurred every day, which were magnified into group conflicts. They appeared from multiple locations at the same time and quickly swept across the entire country, including other surrounding countries. .

The aftermath of the riots was the disintegration of the country, which continues to this day. The entire country was almost smashed to pieces. It was in poverty and chaos. There was almost no oil and water to squeeze out. It had been forgotten by the world for a long time.

Why would the former colonial masters who controlled the country prefer to destroy the country rather than allow it to become stronger? Because they cannot tolerate challenges to their original status, this is an extension of gangster logic. Deep in the subconscious of their group, they are probably also full of fear.

Because they plundered this place, accumulated primitive capital, left numerous bones on this land, and countless sins have not yet been liquidated. On the other hand, they also like to preach in the name of God that everyone is guilty and that love and forgiveness are the noblest qualities.

Ordinary people in the country of Jili in purgatory want to struggle. They have no choice but to trample on the bodies of their compatriots and become high-level gang leaders, and then accept the control of larger gang forces. In the end, they still serve their will and interests. There is no other choice. There is no other way out.

Why did Charles's speech, which never concealed his past, arouse the widest resonance among the people of this country? Because the new alliance led by Ciel has given the vast majority of people another choice, allowing them to see truly beautiful hope.

Hua Zhenxing talked about the riot that year and the country of Jili before and after the riot. They finally arrived at Wage City at noon.

Wage City also has relatively "noble" neighborhoods. There are always police patrols on the streets. The major gangs try their best to avoid causing trouble in this area and maintain a relatively stable order on the surface.

But leaving a neighborhood like this, things immediately change. The way the four of them were dressed, especially their appearance and skin color, should not have appeared in many places in this city, but they did appear, so they seemed unusually abrupt, like a few lambs breaking into a pack of wolves.

There were sewage-filled streets and dilapidated and messy houses. At the entrance of the alley was a tall, idle man with a dagger hidden in his clothes. When he saw them, he showed a fierce look and yelled: "This is not the place for you to come, get out of here!"

Without saying a word, Hua Zhenxing turned around and left with the other three people. Shi Shuangcheng muttered: "It's so cruel. Are all people here like this?"

Hua Zhenxing smiled bitterly and said: "Maybe he is a good man and told us to get out, but actually he didn't want us to be in danger. He knows the situation in his neighborhood very well."

Guang Ren: “Fellow Taoist Hua’s perspective on the problem is quite unique.”

Shi Shuangcheng: "What is he doing standing at the entrance of the alley?"

Manman explained: "The gang in that neighborhood is a lookout. In every gang-controlled neighborhood, there are usually people like this at the intersection. They will not let outsiders in casually."

Shi Shuangcheng: "Isn't it okay to even visit us?"

Manman: "Looking at us, we don't have many relatives or friends there. If something really happens, we have to tell him who we are looking for and what we are here for."

They soon turned into another block, and there was also a big man with a sinister face standing at the entrance of the alley. He looked up at them, his eyes were like a lion's when it found its prey, but he didn't say anything.
