Chapter Seventy-Six: Shefan
"We are called Taoist priests, I would like to ask you, what is a Taoist priest?" asked Ling Hengsanren.
Tianzun said: Taoist priests have three things, one is called a monk, the second is called entering the Tao, and the third is said to be a monk. Therefore, the person who is called a Taoist priest is said to live and sit and lie down, raise his heart and mind, only do the Tao, fasting and praying, chanting with sincerity, burning incense and scattering flowers, repenting with lamps, giving alms and vows, preaching Mahayana, teaching sentient beings, sending great hearts, making all merits, and doing everything for all. Scholars are also in charge. How many things there are, the learning is different, where there are seven orders, they are all called Taoists. At this time, someone replied that the Linghengsan people knew him and that he was pure and pure.
Lingheng Sanren bowed his hand: "Qinghe Daoist is polite." Then he said: "Zhang Yunheng is in his old age, his Taoism is shallow, and now he has a burden, and he will not dare to resign, and I hereby announce to you that Zhang Yunheng will remove the crown from this moment on, fade the Dharma body, and scatter all his family wealth, and please also ask you to be a witness." ”
"You, you! Zhang Yunheng wants to deviate from the norm!" Yu Hengzi's expression changed greatly, and he was full of anger.
Zhang Yunheng smiled lightly, "Daoist Yuheng, this country has laws, freedom of religion, and freedom of belief, is it that I am not free yet?"
"Lingheng Daoist, why are you suffering? Do you know that you are insulting to morality like this!" said Daoist Qinghe with a serious tone.
"Qinghe Dao Chief, my Heavenly Master Dao has been passed down for nearly seventy generations, this Tao and virtue have long been integrated into the bloodline, what can not be given up outside the body?" Zhang Yunheng said easily, and then asked Yu Hengzi: "Yuheng Dao Chief, Pu Hui accused me of corruption, and now there is so-called evidence for that wine game, as for the rest, I think you also know that it does not violate the laws of the country, does not violate the regulations of the research society, if there is any new evidence, take it out, I will continue!"
"Is that all there is to your question? The investigation has no results, do you think that just such a sentence of 'remove the crown and hang the crown, fade the Dharma body, and scatter all the family wealth' can push everything clean! Zhang Yunheng, you think so well!" Yu Hengzi said in a gloomy tone.
"Oh, then I want to ask, when will your investigation have results? You have seized my Shangqing Guan and frozen all the property in my Zhang family's Shangqing Town, for so long, have you found out that my Zhang family has a little illegal income?" Zhang Yunheng asked rhetorically.
Yu Hengzi stared at Zhang Yunheng with a cloudy face, and now he really didn't find any problems in the accounts of the Zhang family and Shangqingguan.
"Daoist Yuheng, if you have no results, will I stay here until I die?" Zhang Yunheng continued, "Now I am still a Chinese citizen, I have cooperated with your investigation for so long, and I have been locked up for so long, now that the old man wants to leave, it should be no problem, right? I think I can also go to the Religious Affairs Bureau to apply for reconsideration, depending on whether your practices are also in violation!"
"Zhang Yunheng, do you want to go to the public gate to solve the matter of my Xuanmen?" asked a true Taoist priest, Zhang Yunheng knew that he was a Hongda Taoist priest
"Daoist Hong Da, now that Zhang Yunheng is no longer a member of the Xuanmen, and now that his personal freedom is restricted, and his family and property are also in danger, if he doesn't look for the state, is he looking for your research society? Besides, is the investigation of the research society an abuse of public power? Do you need to talk about this?" Zhang Yunheng said in a conclusive manner.
"Zhang Yunheng, you can't go!" Yu Hengzi said with a watery face.
"Do you want to illegally detain me all the time?" asked Zhang Yunheng, not to be outdone.
"Do you think that your Taoist book says that you can get rid of it, and if you want to get out, you can get out, is there such a good thing?" Yu Hengzi shouted.
"Oh? Then what do you say, write confession materials? And then what? Do you want you to imprison me to death, or send me to prison? Ladies and gentlemen, Zhang Yunheng is going to leave now, go to the Religious Affairs Bureau to complain, if I break the law and discipline, I will be punished by the laws of the country, and it will not be the turn of the research society to deprive me of everything, which of you thinks it is inappropriate?" Zhang Yunheng didn't pay any attention to Yu Hengzi, he asked the other people who came to monitor.
Others are just silent, religious matters are already complicated, the Taoist Research Society is recognized by the state, and there are many policies and grants, but those are limited to engaging in religious affairs itself, and now Zhang Yunheng is directly not playing, so legally speaking, he is still a citizen, and any investigation of him should be done by the judicial organs of the state, not the people of the research society.
Seeing that no one spoke, Zhang Yunheng walked out of the room directly, and then walked out of the gate of the research institute, dressed in a plain robe, he stopped a taxi, and then said to the driver: "Go to the Religious Affairs Bureau." ”
The taxi driver saw that it was an old Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe, and this was the first time he had pulled it, so he asked: "You are old, which religious bureau do you go to?"
Zhang Yunheng thought about it, and then said: "Then go to the police station first, and then go to the police station in the capital!"
"Okay, you're always sitting tight!" the taxi driver said, and then he galloped all the way to pull Zhang Yunheng down to the Beijing police station.
After arriving, Zhang Yunheng realized that he didn't have a penny on him, not even a mobile phone!
"This, young man, do you think this will work, my Dao robe and Dao crown are worth a few dollars, so I will pay you the fare?" Zhang Yunheng said with some embarrassment, so he was about to take off his Dao robe.
"Oh, I said old man, don't joke when you're old, what am I doing with your clothes, you better put them on, if you get cold, I can't afford it! The taxi driver was a man in his thirties, and when he saw Zhang Yunheng's beard and hair all white, and he was dressed as a Taoist priest, he could only say helplessly.
Zhang Yunheng arched his hand to the taxi driver and said, "In this way, thank you." After that, he found a talisman from his sleeve and handed it to the taxi driver, "Young man, this is a talisman drawn by the old man who has nothing to do, but it can be safe." After the taxi driver took it, he waved his hand and said nothing, and drove away.
Zhang Yunheng stood at the door of the Beijing Police Station, took a deep breath, and then walked in.
The Beijing Police Department has not had a religious person report for many years, and it is also an old Taoist priest who looks like a fairy wind and bones, and the police is a young man who has just graduated, in his early twenties, after asking the old Taoist priest the reason for calling the police, he can't make up his mind, so he made a report to his superiors.
Many reports have been received about cases of impersonating monks and Taoists, but few have received reports from Taoist priests, and they also said that they had been illegally detained and that their personal and property had been threatened. Then the police found out Zhang Yunheng's identity, and the result was really shocked, this is a real Taoist priest, and it has been hyped on the Internet.
Du Gang heard that Zhang Yunheng came to the police, and he immediately rushed to the reception. Du Gang knew that Qiao Minshan had been to Shangqingguan, and he also knew that now Qiao Minshan was going to investigate the kidnapping case of Li Mo and Chen Xia, and he also heard that Qiao Minshan had mentioned Lingheng Sanren several times, and recently there was a news report about Zhang Yunheng, so Du Gang also paid attention to this matter, and also saw Xin Yifan in the video posted on the Internet.
Now hearing that Zhang Yunheng actually came to the police, saying that he was illegally imprisoned and his person and property were threatened, Du Gang intuitively felt that there was something wrong with it.
After seeing Zhang Yunheng, Du Gang introduced himself, and asked Zhang Yunheng about the specific situation again, combined with the time when Xin Yifan's parents and Li Mo were kidnapped, Du Gang felt as if someone was carefully planning these cases behind his back.
As if suddenly enlightened, Du Gang recalled all the cases related to Xin Yifan in his mind, from the crystal skull robbery more than two years ago to the current kidnapping case.
Xin Yifan and crystal skulls, antiques, these things are all connected, and Ye Zhengfei was killed, Qiao Minshan had a car accident, and now Xin Yifan's parents and Li Mo were kidnapped, so there must be a force behind the scenes manipulating all this.
What is the purpose of this force? Did Xin Yifan know some secrets? Did Xin Yifan not tell the police about something? Does Qiao Minshan know?
This series of questions surfaced in Du Gang's mind, he brushed up his thoughts and asked Zhang Yunheng a question: "Mr. Zhang, do you know Xin Yifan?"
Zhang Yunheng didn't expect Du Ganghui to suddenly ask about Xin Yifan, and he replied after a pause: "Officer Du also knows Mr. Xin Yifan!"
Du Gang nodded and said, "Not only do we know each other, but we have dealt with each other a lot. Mr. Zhang, do you know that Xin Yifan has been in trouble recently, and his parents have disappeared!"
"What?" Zhang Yunheng was very surprised, and then asked again: "Then why didn't your police investigate?"
Du Gang spread his hands and said, "You have to ask him about this, Xin Yifan has not come to the police so far! ”
Zhang Yunheng thought for a moment and then asked, "Is it that Officer Qiao?"
Du Gang nodded, and then asked, "Mr. Zhang, is there any secret on Xin Yifan, and you also know this secret?"
Zhang Yunheng glanced at Du Gang with some surprise, nodded slowly, then sighed, and said: "Officer Du, this matter belongs to our Xuanmen secrets, and I can't tell you about it." ”
"Mr. Zhang, I don't care what secrets of your Xuanmen are here, I only know that someone has been kidnapped now, and it is possible that someone will die because of your secrets! Among them are my colleagues! I don't understand the affairs of your religious circles, and I have no right to manage them, but that is on the premise that there is no violation of the law, and now as far as I know, several people have died in several cases related to Xin Yifan, and you are now using the secrets of your Xuanmen to prevaricate me, do you know that this will kill Xin Yifan!" Du Gang said with a slight anger, his tone was a little anxious, and he stood up unconsciously.
"Officer Zhang, you don't have to be excited, the matter of my Xuanmen, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, there is a Religious Affairs Bureau in management, they have a department that is more aware of these things, if you really want to know, you can go to the Religious Affairs Bureau to understand. Zhang Yunheng said lightly, not annoyed by Du Gang's excitement.
"Also, Officer Zhang, if you really want to help Xin Yifan, then find a way to rescue his parents first. Zhang Yunheng continued.
Du Gang wanted to say something, but then his phone rang, and when he saw that it was Qiao Minshan's phone, he immediately answered it.
"What? Xin Yifan was arrested, and Ye Zilan killed someone?" Du Gang exclaimed after receiving the call.
