When Wei Zhaotian saw her he took off his shoe and slapped her face with it. Her face was very swollen afterwards. During the 600km (about 375 miles) drive back, Wei handcuffed Xi in an uncomfortable position and used this pain as a way to punish her till the car arrived at the county government building. Her arms lost feeling for a long time. To add to her pain, the government forced her husband to take the responsibility of monitoring her. If she went away, the government would double the punishment to her husband. Thus, her husband forced her to give up practicing by beating her till she was unconscious. He also used a spade to beat her body. He attempted to break her legs but instead did horrible damage to her knees.

12. Shi Xiaoqing is a female resident of Cuimiao Town. In December 1999, she went to the county government to tell them the truth about Falun Dafa and request a peaceful environment to practice. The security guards answered her request with a brutal beating. Later they grasped her hair in their hands and asked her, "Do you give up practicing?" She answered firmly, "No." Then the guards used sticks to beat her. The temperature was freezing that night. The thugs took off her clothes and shoes and forced her to stand outside in the wind for the whole night. The next day, they tied her up with thick ropes and paraded her around in the streets as an example. In May 2000, she went to Beijing to appeal. The men from the county government broke all the doors and windows in her house like bandits. They took all the grain and all her property and fined her 3000 Yuan (about $375 in US currency).. The thugs showed her no mercy and she is now living a hard life as a single mother with her two kids (her husband passed away) . It is just like the Chinese proverb: "The gangsters entered the party; the government became a family of bandits."
13. Song Qingyun is a female resident of Gucheng town. The authorities arrested her because she practiced Falun Gong. As soon as the policemen entered her house, they yelled, "We heard you are a core member of Falun Gong. Today we will teach you, the so-called core member, a lesson." They asked her if she would keep on practicing. She answered, "Yes!" So two policemen began to whip her with electric power cable wires. Soon, her body was full of wounds and bruises. She didn't give up. The policemen shouted angrily, "I don't believe that I can't break your will." So they stripped off her clothes and put a fan in front of her. It was wintertime, and she had to stand under this cold wind for two hours. In the end, the policemen said, "Falun Gong is so strange. Even the cold wind can't hurt her." This threatening and violence cannot conquer people's hearts. On the contrary, it will only strengthen practitioners' belief.
