Deng Xing, a judge of the People's Court of Gongshan County, carries the national emblem on his back, walks with his colleagues on a bridge over the Nujiang River in Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture, southwest China's Yunnan Province, Aug. 30, 2019. Deng Xing, a man of Lisu ethnic group, comes from a small village nestled at the valley and has worked in the court for over 20 years in the Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture. The transportation in the prefecture is extremely inconvenient because 98 percent of the prefecture is mountains and valleys. To better provide legal services to local residents, Deng usually carries the national emblem on his back and walks to carry out his work in rural areas. Locally, there are few judges who can speak Lisu language. Deng's ability of speaking Lisu language appears especially important. Every year, he visits more than 50 villages and towns, traveling near 10,000 kilometers. He hopes disputes between locals could be solved through peaceful or mediatory ways. (Xinhua/Jiang Wenyao)
