Chapter 91 The Real Disaster Area Is Never Full of Truth, Goodness, and Beauty
After distributing the supplies, Lin Linhou quickly headed to a more distant disaster-stricken village.
With his abilities, he could rescue an entire village all by himself without needing anyone else's help.
"This is the place. There are really a lot of people buried here."
"Also..."
As far as Lin Linhou could see, half of the village had been buried under earth and rocks, and what remained were collapsed houses.
Furthermore, within the range of its spiritual detection capabilities, every detail of the entire village was clearly visible.
A small number of survivors were digging to rescue people, while others simply wanted to make some money in the chaos, such as digging up other people's gold and silver jewelry or money.
Even more despicable are those who take advantage of earthquakes, using the guise of rescue efforts, to kill neighbors with whom they have grudges, or to molest corpses, or even to drag women who are not yet dead but have been knocked unconscious by stones to secluded places to humiliate them.
In any case, with the cover of a natural disaster, these things won't be carefully investigated afterward.
In the face of disaster, the brilliance of humanity is always revealed, but the darkness of humanity is also magnified infinitely at this moment, even without any restraint.
These little tricks naturally did not escape Lin Linhou's discerning eyes.
"That's really true, there are so many people, I suddenly don't want to save them anymore."
Or I could add fuel to the fire and bury most of the people here, then go back and say there was an aftershock.
[After all, the world wants to promote truth, goodness, and beauty, so disaster news will only pick out the good stories. Only through genuine on-site investigation can we see the evil in human nature.]
In the disaster area, some people may take advantage of the earthquake to rob banks, and even go so far as to kill surviving security personnel.
Some people would pick up a brick and secretly give their enemy, who was still breathing but was being crushed, another blow, and then make a quick getaway.
Some people will use the threat of being saved or given food and water to coerce women or even minors into doing indecent things to them.
What's more, this is a remote mountain village that doesn't usually communicate much with the outside world.
As the old saying goes, "Poor mountains and bad waters breed unruly people," and this saying is not without merit.
[Especially in modern society, transportation is more convenient, but many people are not incapable of leaving the mountains; rather, their upbringing prevents them from doing so. Generations of "evil" education have accumulated, making them inherently bad. They either face rejection from civilized society or even imprisonment if they venture out, or they cannot bear the oppressive constraints of "public morality" and are simply unwilling to leave.]
Even if you manage to walk out, you will eventually come back.
Of course, this is not irony, but simply an accumulation of objective facts.
They would smash people and cars because a car parked on the side of the road ran over their wheat seedlings, even though the wheat seedlings had already been planted beyond the field ridges and onto the road.
Even the dirt road that was originally two meters wide gradually became only one meter wide.
They would poison the neighbor's dog to death if they didn't like the sound of it barking.
They are driven by envy and aversion to the poor, and their favorite pastime is belittling others to gain pleasure.
Some people, if they hear others talking badly about them behind their backs, may even have the idea of finding an opportunity to kill that person, and then take action.
When they can't find their belongings, their first reaction isn't that they've lost them, but that they suspect someone else stole them, and they're so sure of it that they start cursing.
If they can't find a wife, they'll just kidnap her. They figure that as long as she's kept in the house for a few years and they have a couple of kids, she'll be completely obedient and theirs.
Some mothers-in-law who favor sons over daughters will throw their daughters-in-law into the pigsty to feed the pigs if they see that the daughters-in-law have given birth to a girl.
There was no awareness that this was wrong, or that it involved murder.
The list is too long to list, it's no exaggeration...
The real reason behind this is that the harsh conditions in these remote and impoverished areas have made it difficult for generations of them to survive. As a result, they have had to sacrifice their moral qualities for the sake of profit, with everything done for the sake of survival and the continuation of their families.
Moreover, due to their remote geographical location, the law often doesn't apply to them, leading to a complete lack of awareness in this regard, or rather, the perception that the law only applies if you can catch them.
Furthermore, even if they are caught, they can often escape due punishment by using various means such as "ignorance is no excuse," "pretending to be from a vulnerable group," and "being arrogant and unreasonable."
Over time, this situation became increasingly serious.
[In this situation, it would take at least three generations of comprehensive education to filter out these historically accumulated negative traits.]
One of the most important functions of compulsory education for all is to eradicate bad habits to the greatest extent and with the greatest effect.
It's just that for the previous two generations, even reading and education were useless; they only turned "true villains" into "hypocrites."
Because of the education they received from their parents or grandparents, they subconsciously still believe that it is right, and their moral values have not changed. They are just constrained by the law and dare not openly express it.
Therefore, it takes three or even four generations to improve the overall social atmosphere.
That means it will take sixty years, or even eighty years!
[In your previous life, Lin, wasn't it only after your death that the vast majority of the nation's new generation began to understand righteousness, shame, and the law?]
Lin Linhou nodded in deep agreement.
"However, there are still some people in the village who show that kind of simplicity and kindness."
[Because these people are the true representatives of those from impoverished backgrounds, or those who have been influenced by education received in impoverished circumstances.]
[It's impossible for a village to be entirely populated by poor and wicked people. Whether in the past or present, there will always be one or more families who have been wealthy for generations and have provided excellent education for their children.]
Only through good education can one escape poverty and hardship, and achieve prosperity.
[These people are generally from clans with genealogical records, wealthy families who have been merchants for generations, or those with relatively good relationships with these powerful figures.]
As the saying goes, wealth lasts three generations and produces nobility; wealth lasts five generations and creates a prestigious family.
True scions of noble families are always those who excel in both character and academics. Even if they are hypocrites, they must remain hypocritical for life, rather than being the "purely stupid idiots" depicted in TV dramas or novels.
After all, if not for this, how could they have prospered for generations? After all, it only takes one generation to truly squander a fortune.
Even if such families decline, their family traditions remain unchanged, and they can always rise again. Moreover, it is difficult for them to associate with the wicked people around them.
Only when pushed to the limit will they transform into "righteous messengers" who solve problems with physics...
"Forget it, I can't be bothered to judge other people's affairs outside of my mission."
Lin Linhou adjusted his mood. He was here to provide disaster relief, not to reward good and punish evil.
By this time, he had used his mental detection to locate all the trapped individuals and the victims.
They also created many teleportation marker items with effects similar to "Flying Thunder God".
Lin Linhou then went to a relatively open space, set up a large military tent, and took out a megaphone to shout to the crowd in the distance.
But the loudspeaker was just a cover; in reality, he used his ability to transmit his voice to everyone's ears.
"This is the Great Xia military. I am the vanguard of this disaster relief effort. Everyone, come over here and follow the unified arrangements for disaster relief!"
The sound also carries a slight hypnotic effect.
