Hearing Xiao Xizhi's words, the faces of the two middle-aged men changed, did he really know, although this thing would definitely know what it was in the end, but if he delayed a little time now, he could also let his friends fish them out, after all, without knowing it, it was just some beads of unknown composition.

"Old Xiao, what do you think of?" Gao Cunzhi immediately asked, I didn't know before, but now I suddenly knew, only when I remembered something, I thought of these beads.

Xiao Xizhi nodded, looked at the stone carved Buddha statues used for the storage of these beads, and said with a solemn face: "I should have thought of it a long time ago, but this kind of cultural relics are not usually rare, and suddenly appeared in front of me for a while, but I didn't think about it in that place, because these people still use Buddha statues to present these beads, do you think that the Buddha will bless you in this way." ”

"Lao Gao, remember what I told you a few months ago, when the Hangzhou Cultural Relics Bureau and the Religious Affairs Bureau jointly issued a notice to the national cultural relics department, and more than ten relics were stolen from the relics of the high monks enshrined in a temple in Wuyun Mountain, Hangzhou, so that our local cultural relics departments assisted in finding them, and this high monk is one of the famous four great monks of the Ming Dynasty, Master Yunqi Qihong." Xiao Xizhi looked at the two middle-aged men lightly, and then said in a solemn tone.

Gao Cunzhi looked at the fifteen beads in the box, with a little surprise on his face, "Are you saying that what is in this box may be the relics left by the stolen Yunqi master." ”

"It's not possible, but there is a high degree of certainty, the relics left behind by the Buddhist monks after they sat down. The composition is unknown, but due to the special significance of the relics. Some institutions wanted to study, but the Buddhists directly refused, but there is a testing center in the United States, and a relic stolen from another country has been obtained, and the research has shown that some of the components of the relics are very similar to diamonds, which can undoubtedly explain why the relics are not damaged even when hit with a hammer. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Xizhi couldn't help but say to the young man who came with him: "Xiao Wang." Let the bureau send the photo sent by the Hangzhou cultural relics department last time to your mobile phone, let us see. ”

"Okay, Xiao Bureau." The young man immediately made a phone call and asked some technicians in the bureau to send the photo to his mobile phone, and within a few minutes, after getting the photo, he walked quickly to Xiao Xizhi. handed over the phone, "Bureau Xiao, the photo has been transmitted." ”

Xiao Xizhi took the phone, glanced at it, and a smile appeared on his face, "Lao Gao." The relics in this photo are exactly the same as those in this box. ”

"It's really exactly the same, I can't imagine that these colorful and seemingly ordinary beads. But it is the relics of Buddhist monks after they sit down, which is unbelievable. I couldn't imagine that these people wanted to smuggle the relics of Chinese monks abroad. Looking at the photos in the phone and comparing the beads in the box, Gao Cunzhi said with a sigh on his face.

Xiao Xizhi looked at the two middle-aged people and smiled faintly, "I heard that there are also a lot of monasteries in Germany, and they are deeply influenced by Buddhist culture, it is estimated that these two people want to smuggle them abroad and let Master Yunqi settle abroad, just with these fifteen relics, you will be sentenced to at least ten years or more." ”

"It's none of our business, we also bought other people's stone carvings, and we don't know what relics are in them." Hearing Xiao Xizhi's words, the faces of the two middle-aged people changed suddenly, and then they hurriedly denied it.

"Director Xiao, please ask, I know the relics, but who is Master Yunqi." At this time, Director Zhou of the customs department asked Xiao Xizhi with doubts on his face, with Xiao Xizhi's words just now, this Yunqi master must be a great figure, otherwise, the relics he left behind would not be so precious.

Xiao Xizhi smiled slightly, "Director Zhou, Master Yunqi is one of the four great monks of the Ming Dynasty, there are many sects of Buddhism, there are Faxiang Sect, Three Treatise Sect, Tiantai Sect, Zen Sect, Pure Land Sect, etc., and among them, the Pure Land Sect and Zen Buddhism have the greatest influence in China, and Master Yunqi is the eighth generation patriarch of the Pure Land Sect, whose name is Qihong, but because he has lived in Hangzhou Yunqi Temple for a long time, he opened a special session of Yunqi Dao, and is known as Master Yunqi, his greatest merit is that he integrates the teachings of Zen Buddhism and Pure Land Sect in one, and has reached great success. After his death, although the Pure Land Sect had great monks and great virtues to promote the Dharma, but with little success, Master Yunqi can be said to be the most outstanding Buddha of the Pure Land Sect and spared no effort. ”

"At the time of Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty, I learned of the merits of Master Yunqi, and was given the title of Jingmiao Zhenxiu Zen Master by Emperor Yongzheng to commemorate the great merits of Master Yunqi, and the relics of the master after sitting were put into the pagoda at the foot of Wuyun Mountain by the disciples, but in the Republic of China, Yunqi Temple gradually declined and declined, and there was not even an apprentice among them, and at that time other monasteries of the Pure Land Sect in Hangzhou invited the relics out of the tower, and then stored in one of the temples."

Speaking of this, Xiao Xizhi's tone became colder, "I didn't expect these people to dare to risk the disapproval of the world to steal the relics left by Master Yunqi in the temple, and disappeared for several months, I didn't expect to come to Haoyang, ready to smuggle out from Haoyang, with such merit and fame of Master Yunqi, the relics he left behind can be said to be the precious cultural relics of the country, stealing and attempting to smuggle the precious cultural relics of the country, you will definitely be severely punished, Director Zhou, and then I will notify the Hangzhou cultural relics department to come and confirm, The two were then handed over to the judiciary. ”

"Okay, Director Xiao, your identification ability is really excellent, no one would have thought that in these Buddha statues, there will be relics, and these relics will become the largest smuggling case recently investigated by our customs, Director Xiao, thank you." Director Zhou said with gratitude, smuggling relics, this is simply he has not seen in the customs for ten years, and now it is seized, not only the Hangzhou cultural relics department, and even the religious department will express their gratitude to them, which can be said to be a great contribution to Haoyang Customs, involving religion, there has never been a simple matter.

Xiao Xizhi smiled slightly, "Director Zhou, this is what we should do, however, I have to mention that this time I was able to find the relics, I should thank my little junior brother, without his subtle observation, we are preparing to treat it as a modern handicraft, if we let it go like this, it will be our heavy mistake." ”

"Oh, it was this young man who discovered the relics, young and promising, amazing." Director Zhou looked at Chen Yi and said with some surprise, and at the same time had a further understanding of Xiao Xizhi's character, in the officialdom, he had seen many officials desperately take credit for themselves, like Xiao Xizhi did not shy away from his mistakes, and pushed out the real meritorious people, it is indeed rare to see.

"Director Zhou, thank you for your compliment, if it weren't for Senior Brother Xiao and Senior Brother Gao talking to the two people who smuggled, I wouldn't have realized that something was wrong with this matter." Chen Yi smiled slightly, and then said, he did use the identification technique after realizing that something was wrong with these two people, and he never thought that there would be something stored in it.

Xiao Xizhi couldn't help laughing, "Senior Brother Chen is still so modest, okay, Director Zhou, our appraisal is over here, I will bring these relics back to the Cultural Relics Bureau for preservation first, and you will directly transfer these two to the judicial department, and after the Hangzhou Cultural Relics Bureau comes over to confirm, we will make a final conclusion." ”

"Okay, Director Xiao, I'm sorry for you, I'll send you." Director Zhou nodded, and then personally sent Xiao Xizhi and the others to the door and got into the car.

Watching Xiao Xizhi and the others leave, Director Zhou sighed and smiled, and a staff member next to him asked with some curiosity: "Director, this relic belongs to the national cultural relics." ”

"As long as it is a relic, it belongs to the supreme holy relics of Buddhism, the relics left by the Buddha Shakyamuni, known as the national treasure, remember that when it was transported to the treasure island for exhibition in the past few years, the gilded copper pagoda where the relics were placed installed a bulletproof, fireproof, shockproof glass cover weighing more than 200 kilograms, and there were more than 400 people from the Buddhist circles, escorted by two special planes, after arriving, along the disciples 100,000 believers greeted, and by the mainland more than 20 warrior monks and 120 treasure island King Kong composed of the Dharma Protector Group, and other armed police and other departments, forming four barriers, 24-hour guard, you can see the preciousness of the relics. ”

Director Zhou sighed a little and continued: "Although these relics are not the Buddha's, but according to what Director Xiao just said, they are also the relics of the patriarch of Buddhism, and their precious Cheng dΓΉ should be a first-class cultural relics if calculated by the classification of national cultural relics. ”

On the way, Xiao Xizhi couldn't help but thank Chen Yi for discovering the suspicion, otherwise he would not have found the matter of their cultural relics department, but this was also their mistake.

"Lao Gao, Zheng Lao is really lucky, he has received so many good disciples, Senior Brother Chen, Senior Brother Xu knows that the future achievements are limitless at a glance." After that, Xiao Xizhi said with a sigh.

Gao Cunzhi smiled slightly, "Hehe, thank you Director Xiao for your compliment, if you want, I can tell the master, and he will definitely accept you as a disciple." ”

"Ahem, I'm so stupid, I'll embarrass Mr. Zheng, okay, no kidding, the antique city has arrived, Lao Gao, thank you for your help this time, and Senior Brother Chen, Senior Brother Xu, I will report the matter this time, and you won't be missing when the time comes." When he arrived at the antique city, Xiao Xizhi smiled, and then said to the three of them, he didn't care about Chen Yi and Xu Guoqiang, but he didn't expect that this incident was discovered by Chen Yi, a young man.
