Traveling thousands of miles is not as good as breaking through thousands of books.
Hearing with the ears is false, seeing with the eyes is true.
Many times, only through personal experience can one grow rapidly...
In a short period of time, Zhou Shengsheng understood why Delia was able to fight alone in the mountains and forests regardless of the opinions of others.
It's too cruel, too bad.
When extreme evil is presented in front of you, the goodness of human nature will be infinitely magnified. Of course, she is not a savior, so what she does has always been down-to-earth and step-by-step.
Run a school to popularize basic medical knowledge.
These actions are naturally not intended to allow the primitive tribesmen to step out of the shackles of the jungle one day, but only to avoid injury and death at certain times and in certain matters.
Tetanus is 100% curable during the incubation period, but the possibility of being cured during the onset stage is extremely slim.
Children are a group with low immunity. It is difficult for adults to cure the disease during the onset period, let alone children.
Local stiffness, organ infection, difficulty breathing, decreased heart rate...
The final result is death.
morning.
The sun is shining and the breeze is just right.
The two children died with hideous faces because their faces were stiff due to tetanus bacteria, making it impossible for them to restore their facial expressions.
Because of this.
The holy priest read out the devil's evidence of guilt——
"They failed to defeat the evil erosion. This is a dirty and despicable performance..."
"Only light can dispel darkness, and fire will take away all filth."
after her words.
The sadness of the parents of the two children was even replaced by panic.
Isn't the ferocious look of the children the appearance of the devil? They were possessed, and they failed to defeat the devil, so they died... maybe it would be better to die, as they would not bring the devil into the family or tribe.
The natives have built a burning platform, and the two demons will be purified by the flames.
The periphery of the ceremony.
Zhou Sheng, He Congshuang, and Delia watched all this silently.
"Death is a kind of relief, otherwise there will be more suffering in the future." Delia's words may seem cruel, but it is the fact. In the rest room last night, the three of them were chatting.
There was once an old man in his sixties or seventies who married a teenage girl. The girl's family only paid for the three milk goats that the old man paid.
The torture will continue after marriage...
After going through circumcision and cruel suturing, every sexual intercourse will be a cruel and inhumane injury.
Pain is not the final result. The closed environment of the female vagina will naturally breed many diseases, rot, trichomonas and even cancer. People outside will be helpless against gynecological diseases, let alone in this deep mountain and old forest.
Almost all women have gynecological diseases of varying degrees.
"The remaining children need treatment!" Zhou Sheng said.
He Congshuang also looked at Delia.
Delia nodded, then shook her head: "Tetanus vaccination treatment can be provided, but this is not the fundamental method. There will be similar rituals every month..."
What is the fundamental solution?
Zhou Shengsheng and He Congshuang looked confused...
Perhaps, Delia actually doesn't know the answer.
finally.
The flames ignited, crackling and burning, and gradually burned the two girls to ashes.
"Sorry to trouble you, go back to the Gray Worm Department and bring the medicine. I'll stay here and pay attention to the children's health."
The two of them nodded immediately, then returned to their residence to pick up their luggage and set off.
The return trip was easy because there was no weight to bear, but the faces of Zhou Sheng and He Congshuang were full of heaviness.
On the road.
He Congshuang asked: "Have you seen a movie called "Desert Flower"?"
"No, what are you talking about?"
"The true growth history of a world-famous model. She personally experienced all the vicious things we saw yesterday, and when she was fifteen years old, she was married by her father to a fifty-year-old middle-aged man."
"Only her mother helped her on the eve of her wedding and allowed her to flee her hometown and come to the city to look for her elderly grandmother."
"Through her grandmother, she got a job opportunity as a maid at the British Embassy. When that country was in war, she went to the UK through the embassy, wandered around and became a model by chance."
"What happened next?" Zhou Sheng asked.
"Later, she devoted herself to the cause of women's liberation."
Speaking of this, He Congshuang, who was walking in front, paused: "Actually, I came to Africa just because I had an opportunity to talk to her about this matter... Today, 130 million women in the world are still going through the torture of circumcision, with an average of
Six thousand children are circumcised every day."
"But really, what can we change?"
"The abolition of old rituals will be a major event that rises to the national and world levels. Even that person has no good solution and can only take care of what he sees in front of him."
"As far as I know, circumcision is also popular in cities. Someone once told me smugly that circumcision in the city is safe, with complete disinfection measures and standardized surgical systems."
"Yes, circumcision won't kill anyone, but what about the future of those children?"
"The rescuer used his own hands to help complete the vicious ritual. Is this good or evil?"
After Zhou Sheng heard this, his mind was in a mess and he could not give an answer.
And there seems to be no standard answer to this matter.
But look at this rationally...
"If, I mean if..."
"If we take it step by step, first avoiding the risk of death, and then thinking of ways to abolish the old rituals, is that also the way to go? Tall buildings are not built in a day, right?"
He Congshuang smiled and shook his head, mocking himself: "Actually, I don't know either, and neither does Ms. Delia. She and I have also talked about this matter, and she has also wavered and wanted to try this method.
.”
"But like I said, if the saving hand is stained with blood, is it good or evil?"
The words fell.
He Congshuang raised his feet again and continued to set off.
And Zhou Sheng also fell into endless thoughts.
The return trip was very fast. It took about half the time it took for the two of them to return to the Gray Worm Department.
When Dan and Asan saw them, they were extremely surprised: "Have all the things been delivered? Why didn't Ms. Delia come back?"
He Congshuang was silent. Zhou Shengsheng took a deep breath and briefly recounted what happened in Mulebu...
Then.
Dan also fell silent.
Only Asang was not surprised and said: "Circumcision is a ritual that cannot be avoided. After my two brothers and I drove away the herbalists, no one could perform the circumcision ceremony. People from the tribe would even go to other tribes for help."
"But in recent years, the situation has improved a lot. Foreign companies have settled in and are also contributing to this matter. One of the requirements for many companies, especially the Chinese aid construction companies, when recruiting employees is that they do not accept women who have undergone circumcision."
"Nowadays, many women are working outside, and men are trying to make a living so that their wives and daughters can earn a good salary. Gradually, some people are starting to ignore circumcision."
"However, in most people's eyes, circumcision is still necessary. It is a custom and etiquette."
