Features: The Rural Archive is an exceptional novel set in the theme of rural anti-corruption. It tells the story of Kuting River Township in Xian County, Xiling City, where a river blocks the path, making transportation inconvenient and the lives of the farmers impoverished. Generations of people in Kuting River Township have long dreamed of building a bridge over the river. However, the main leaders of the township embezzled the hard-earned money of the farmers for the bridge. The newly arrived Party Secretary of the township, eager to achieve political achievements and return to the county capital, raised funds again to build the bridge. This led to a severe conflict between the farmers and the township government, resulting in major tragedies: the farmers gathered to smash the township government, the County Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary narrowly escaped assassination, and a beautiful girl died violently with her body disposed of. These shocking events forced the farmers of Kuting River Township to unite and engage in relentless struggles against the evil forces.
