Chapter Twenty-Nine: The True Taoist
"Can't I find it even if I go?" Zhao Xuan asked in surprise.
"It's different, it's not the same. Change the person and think differently, and if you don't do it, you can find it. Zhang Yuan waved his hand, pointed to the luggage rack above his head, and said, "Besides, I didn't bring enough things with me last time, but this time I was prepared." ”
Zhao Xuan asked some more questions, and finally figured out the cause and effect of the incident.
Since the return of the fourth generation of Heavenly Masters to Longhu Mountain, especially after the Tang Dynasty, it has gradually become the orthodoxy of Taoism and developed into a huge family, which is called "South Zhang and North Kong" together with the Yansheng Gong Confucian family in the north.
In the history of nearly 2,000 years, the Heavenly Master has accumulated countless treasures, gold, silver and jewelry, but some unsightly things, naturally need to find a place to hide privately, that is, the "small Taoist temple" in Zhang Yuan's mouth.
The name of the small Taoist temple is "Sanqing Temple", and the Taoist temple with this name in the whole country must have 800 if there is not a thousand, which is inconspicuous.
It is not far from the "Zhengyi View" of Zhengyi, about ten miles, but the mountain road is difficult to walk, and the successive heavenly masters have the intention to conceal it, so the incense is naturally not prosperous.
And the sixty-third Heavenly Master fled in a hurry with the Guo Party, and the gold and silver were all in Zhengyiguan, so they naturally took it away, but the secret treasures of Sanqingguan had no time to clean up.
After years of war, plus the previous activities after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the role of this Sanqing Temple is even more unknown, and it is so dilapidated, until the 21st century after the local development of tourism, only to renovate the dilapidated Taoist temple, open to tourists, but because it is not on the main tourist route of Longhu Mountain, the popularity is still tepid.
However, compared to these, what surprised Zhao Xuan was another news.
"Director Zhang is your grandfather? Is Curator Zhang his father? ”
Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, dear." ”
Zhao Xuan folded his fingers and calculated: "Director Zhang must be ninety this year, right?" ”
"Eighty-nine, born in 30 years."
Zhao Xuan smiled: "I really didn't see it, you are still the second generation." ”
"I haven't met my grandfather, and when I was born, he and Director Zhao had already gone to track down Zhao Yi." Zhang Yuan shook his head and said, "Gao Gan is not, but to be honest, if it weren't for my grandfather, our family might not have survived the catastrophe." He and Director Zhao established this bureau, and maybe he also has this in mind. ”
"That's true." Zhao Xuan agreed. According to the origin of Zhang Yuan and his family, it is really hard to say what the outcome will be in the turmoil.
"What about your parents?" Zhao Xuan was a little curious.
"My parents are both teachers." Speaking of homely things, Zhang Yuan's tone also relaxed: "I heard the older generation say that my father originally wanted to study these things with him, but he was beaten a few times, and he was honest." Later, the college entrance examination was resumed, and he was admitted to university, and then he has been working as a teacher in middle school, and gradually this idea has been abandoned. ”
"Then why did your uncle do this again?"
"Isn't this going to be reform and opening up later?" Zhang Yuan smiled.
"What about you? And why? Zhao Xuan continued to inquire about the news.
"When I was a child, my parents were busy, and I was naughty, and I often skipped class and messed around. When my uncle went on a mission, if the level of secrecy was not high, he often took me, and those miscellaneous things were learned during that time. Later, when my uncle got older, he gradually became less out of task, and I was able to calm down and go to school. ”
Zhang Yuan stretched out his finger and pointed at himself: "After that, I will naturally graduate from college, and then I will be recruited into the bureau." I guess that even if I refuse to come, my uncle and the Forestry Bureau will change their tricks to bring me in, just like you. ”
"Tell me clearly, what do you mean to be the same as me!?" Zhao Xuan discovered the blind spot.
"Damn, I didn't say anything." Zhang Yuan waved his hand again and again.
Zhao Xuan definitely couldn't let Zhang Yuan go, and after making a fuss for a long time, Zhang Yuan said it one by one.
"So, in the past few years since I graduated, it's all your fault that you're so poor?" Zhao Xuan slumped in the chair, covered his face with his hands, and asked Zhang Yuan weakly.
"It's not us, it's them." Zhang Yuan pointed behind him and said correctly: "This matter has nothing to do with me, the Forest Bureau and my uncle did it." Before the interview that day, I had no idea that you were such a person. ”
"And you know what they did?"
"It's nothing, I used some small means that are not easy to explain, naturally no company dares to use you."
"Then why didn't you bring me in sooner?"
"This position has been hanging for three years, what can you do if you don't come to report?" Zhang Yuan spread his hands.
"Do you mean you blame me?" Zhao Xuan was a little angry, pulled Zhang Yuan's clothes, and asked, "Do you know how I've spent the past two years?" I'm about to doubt my life. ”
"I don't blame you, I don't blame you, why don't I call the Forestry Bureau and ask in person?" Zhang Yuan shrank his neck, took out his mobile phone and asked Zhao Xuan.
"Forget it." Zhao Xuan pinched the bridge of his nose vigorously with one hand, and waved at Zhang Yuan with the other.
Now that it has been decided to join the abnormal bureau, it is really unnecessary to dwell on these things again, so that the forest bureau cannot come down.
"Actually, the bureau is pretty good to you." Zhang Yuan saw that Zhao Xuan didn't have any intention of pursuing it, so he put his mind at ease and enlightened Zhao Xuan: "You are the fastest person in history to reach the second level of authority. ”
"Alright, let's not talk about that." Since Zhao Xuan didn't want to pursue it, he was naturally unwilling to continue this topic.
Then the two stopped talking about these things at work, and began to discuss the topic between young people, and both of them were chattering again, bickering while talking, and they were happy, but they were happier than before.
The two talked about something again, and Zhang Yuan began to fall asleep again.
During this time, he was also complained by the passenger next door, saying that he was snoring too loudly.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the two of them rushed to N City, and they didn't have time to go to Longhu Mountain, but they just found a hotel in the city to stay.
Early the next morning, Zhang Yuan was unusual, and actually got up early in the morning and dragged Zhao Xuan to Longhu Mountain.
"Damn, I miscalculated." Zhang Yuan stood in front of the gate of the Longhu Mountain scenic spot, with a look of chagrin.
It really underestimates the enthusiasm of Chinese people to travel!
During a small Dragon Boat Festival holiday, the two of them went out on leave in advance, and they still looked crowded.
"This way, this way." Zhang Yuan bypassed the crowd in line, walked to the side, pointed to the entrance and exit of the staff next to him, took out a document from his clothes, and raised it at Zhao: "Fortunately, your grandfather and I have this." ”
"Your grandfather!" Zhao Xuan talked to Zhang Yuan while reaching out and snatching the documents in Zhang Yuan's hand. It was actually a Taoist clergy card, and when I opened it, it was really a photo of Zhang Yuan.
Zhao Xuan was surprised: "Huh! It's true. ”
"My grandfather is okay, right? Don't talk nonsense! Zhang Yuan didn't care about grabbing the Taoist certificate, and looked around nervously: "This is true!" Don't let people hear it, it really makes people think it's a false testimony! ”
With Zhang Yuan's documents, the two of them really entered the scenic spot from the entrance and exit of the staff.
It wasn't until he got on the traffic bus in the scenic spot that Zhao Xuan turned his head and asked Zhang Yuan: "Are you still a Taoist priest?" Aren't you a party member? ”
"I'm a party member, yes." Zhang Yuan glanced at Zhao Xuan and said, "Are you not only a policeman or an armed policeman?" Same as those. ”
"Then why didn't I?"
"Can it be the same? Do you know what the three clears are? ”
"I know." Zhao Xuan counted solemnly with his fingers: "Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, Taiqing Daode Tianzun." ”
"Fuck off. Did I mean that? Zhang Yuan glanced at Zhao Xuan and said, "Then I will give you a pilot's license, you really have the ability to fly into the sky and shoulder to shoulder with the sun?" What are you doing with it? ”
"Oh? Can our unit still have this? Get me one? Zhao Xuan seemed to have discovered a new world.
"Do you want a death certificate? You can get that, absolutely. ”
"Do you want to pay for the funeral?"
"Send your uncle." Zhang Yuan found that Zhao Xuan just wanted to be poor, and he was too lazy to deal with Zhao Xuan.
The two got out of the car directly in front of the Zhengyiguan Gate.
Zhao Xuan took a look at this thousand-year-old temple, which was built against the back of the mountain, not very high, and the scale was average, with white walls and green tiles, red pillars, and brown solid wood doors and windows.
"Your ancestral court is small enough." Zhao Xuan turned his head and asked Zhang Yuan beside him: "It's not magnificent at all, it can't be compared with the Confucian Temple in Qufu." ”
"Be as happy as you like." Zhang Yuan didn't seem to be arguing with Zhao Xuan, pointed to the mountain behind him, and said, "Over there, let's go over." ”
The two of them did not take a look, but went directly to the back mountain and walked along a path to the mountain.
After walking along a bluestone path for an hour, the two turned around a hill, and then they saw the Sanqingguan that Zhang Yuan said. It is an antique building with a small patch of reinforced concrete.
"That's what you mean by no incense?" Zhao Xuan looked at the Taoist temple standing on a high place, looked at the Taoist temple in the mountain col, looked at the black head in the small Taoist temple, and asked Zhang Yuan next to him.
"This ...... I don't know what's going on, huh? Zhang Yuan was also dumbfounded and said: "There were no people last time, when did it become a popular attraction?" ”
"Let's go down and ask." Zhao Xuan shook his head.
"I'll go." Zhang Yuan trotted down the mountain, pulled someone on the side of the road and started talking.
Zhao Xuan was not in a hurry, walked down the mountain slowly, and saw Zhang Yuan finish asking, so he stepped forward and asked Zhang Yuan: "How is it?" ”
"It's a big deal." Zhang Yuan said with a serious face: "I may have to contact the unit." ”
Zhang Yuan told Zhao Xuan that there was indeed not much popularity here, but since the beginning of this year, pilgrims who have come here to burn incense suddenly found that the well water in the backyard actually has the effect of "curing"!
So the surrounding villagers immediately flocked to it, and by now, it is not only the people from the neighborhood who have come here, but even the people who have come from afar.
Fortunately, most young people scoff at these things, but no one has spread the news online, and the impact is all word of mouth.
"It's ...... Something unusual? Zhao Xuan asked Zhang Yuan in disbelief: "Such a coincidence?" ”
"I haven't seen it, I'm not sure, but it's possible." Zhang Yuan said while taking out his mobile phone: "It is impossible for the rumors alone to make such a big fuss, otherwise there are rumors that cause trouble, or there is some reason for the well water to really have an effect." ”
Zhang Yuan called the bureau, and then called the Eastern Branch, after all, Province J belongs to the jurisdiction of the Eastern Branch, and it stands to reason that they should handle it.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yuan turned his head and said to Zhao Xuan with a crying and laughing face: "Yes, those lazy people in the Eastern Bureau pushed the matter to us." ”
