"Our Director Jia attaches great importance to this project. She wants to build Zhuge Fairy Mountain into a well-known tourist attraction, Buddhist and Taoist resort. Therefore, Xuanwei Temple and Xifei Temple must be renovated and upgraded. Taoist Master Hunyun, don't you think Is the micro too shabby?" The girl's name is Liu Shuyuan, a staff member of the subdistrict office. This is the second time she has gone to the mountain to do his ideological work. This time she also brought Xuanwei's renovation plan. In this design, Xuanwei has been transformed beyond recognition, and all the buildings will be torn down and rebuilt. The vegetable garden at the back will also be filled in and built into a magnificent hall, which will become the last of the three entrances to the Taoist temple.
But under the vegetable field is the resting place of their Xuanwei ancestors. How could Xu Zhipeng be willing to let them build large-scale construction and disturb the peace of the ancestors.
"I have no objection if you want to renovate Xuanwei. However, you have to keep the main hall and the vegetable garden behind. I don't want to touch these two places!" Xu Zhipeng expressed his meaning very firmly and his tone was very stiff.
This is the second time he has expressed this opinion.
The last time Liu Shuyuan came, he told her that he did not want to reshape Xuan Wei. There are no roads on this mountainside. Even in this technological society, it takes a lot of effort to build a Taoist temple. He still needs to clean up, so he can't tolerate trouble.
But later, Senior Brother Zhichen persuaded him that their Xifei Temple also needed to be renovated, and they had renovated it before, so it wouldn't have much impact. Moreover, although Buddhism belongs to the outside world, it is also subject to secular jurisdiction. There is no way around it! Xu Zhipeng thought about it and agreed to the renovation, but he hoped to retain the basic architecture of Xuanwei. Who would have thought that as soon as the renovation drawings were brought up, he would see that the interior had been changed beyond recognition.
"In the main hall, the ancestor of our Lingbao Sect is enshrined, and under the vegetable garden at the back resides the spirit body of the ancestor of our Xuanwei sect. Reverend Shuyuan, you said that someone is going to develop on your ancestral tomb, would you be willing?"
Liu Shuyuan was speechless. She is from Shu and attaches great importance to her ancestral temple. If someone wanted to touch these places of theirs, the people in the clan would probably fight to the death.
"Taoist Priest Hunyun, but this is the approval decision of our Director Jia. It has been included in the 2024 Fairy Mountain reconstruction plan and submitted to the Municipal Party Committee and District Committee. I'm afraid it will be a bit troublesome to change it." Liu Shuyuan explained tactfully. It's the butt that determines the head. Since you join a government department, you must consider issues from the government's perspective and no longer mix personal feelings. This Xuanwei belongs to someone else's family, and her ancestors are also someone else's ancestors. As long as she doesn't meet her own family, she can only follow administrative rules.
"Since it's so troublesome, then I won't reform my Xuan Wei!" Xu Zhipeng sneered. "Pindao is about to start his homework, so walk slowly and don't send him away!"
Xuan Wei points out that he can still do it. Since it can't meet his wishes, it's better not to reform, and it doesn't matter to him anyway. They are just external things. No matter how magnificent the Taoist temple is, it will not add a trace of aura. It does not matter if it is changed or not!
"Taoist Master, please don't be angry. We can still discuss the specific methods of reform. I will go back and report to our Director Jia." Liu Shuyuan persuaded patiently. She still has experience in this regard. Although she has not been in the subdistrict office for a long time, she has already taken over this kind of transformation several times. She has a gentle personality and has enough patience and time to communicate with the parties involved to find a breakthrough that is satisfactory to each of them. "Oh, by the way, because we need to carry out unified planning and management, would you please take out your Taoist disc and let me register it. In this way, when the scenic spot is renovated, you can enjoy certain subsidies."
"Tao disc?" It seemed that there was such a thing, but he didn't!
"What's wrong, Taoist priest? Have you never registered and received a Taoist certificate?" Liu Shuyuan became curious when she saw Xu Zhipeng's expression was strange. She has an uncle who is also a Taoist priest. She has seen his Taoist disk and knows that it is an ultimatum granted by Taoism to those who practice Taoism. If it does not exist, then he is a legendary wild Taoist priest. If he is not protected by the law, he will naturally not be eligible to inherit it. This is too mysterious. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile.
"I really don't have the Taoist disc yet, but I should be able to apply for it. Is this related to Xuanwei's transformation?" Xu Zhipeng's face was a little gloomy. He glanced at the smiling girl. Although she also had bright eyes and white teeth, but from the He also revealed a little bit of pride, which made his heart start to feel tight.
Nowadays, we are a society governed by the rule of law. Under normal circumstances, we must act in accordance with the law, but it does not mean that we can be lawless just because we have a strong fist. Although Xu Zhipeng thought he had entered the ranks of monks and could use some tricks, he still did not dare or was unwilling to fight against the secular government. Therefore, matters that can be resolved by laws and regulations are still used to be resolved by legal means. Just like this renovation, if he doesn't agree, the government department has no choice but to negotiate a solution. But once they find a loophole, such as the issue of ownership, it will be troublesome. They will definitely come up with various legal provisions to prove that he does not own the Taoist temple, and then they can modify it at will.
"Taoist Priest Hunyun, if you have not registered a Taoist disc, you are not a regular Taoist priest, and naturally you have no right to inherit the Taoist temple." Liu Shuyuan explained with a smile. "Of course, for a Taoist monk like you who is full of Taoism, it is very simple to register a Taoist disc. You only need to go to the Taoist Association in the city to register, and then find a master to transfer the disc for you. ”
"Oh, by the way, which sect of Taoism does your Xuanwei belong to? If it is taught by Zhengyiyi or Tianshi, you have to find the main court of these sects, otherwise the rules will be messed up."
Xu Zhipeng frowned. He really doesn't know this knowledge, but he won't wait until now to pay the ultimatum. This little girl spoke carefully, but her heart was cruel!
It's not as simple as what she said, but it may not be so simple in practice. She can just find a reason to delay it for you. This is not unheard of.
It seems that some means can only be used!
"Liu Shi, do you believe it?"
"My belief is Marxism-Leninism!" Liu Shuyuan said firmly. "But among the elders in my family, there is someone who is cultivating Taoism. He is the Taoist disciple of Tianshi Dao."
"Oh, that's no wonder. The peace talisman on your body must have been given to you by him, right?" Xu Zhipeng had noticed the peace talisman on her body a long time ago. This talisman is full of Taoism. The person who drew it should be a Taoist person, and he must have used it carefully. If it were not someone close to the descendants, which cultivator would give such a spiritual talisman.
"This talisman is extraordinary. Remember to carry it with you." Xu Zhipeng said. "This is a talisman from the Celestial Master Dao. I, Xuan Wei, belong to the Lingbao Sect. I will hand-draw a talisman for you. You might as well take it back to your elder for appreciation."
After saying that, he walked into the main hall, took out a piece of talisman paper and cinnabar wolf hair, walked back to the courtyard, and spread it on the stone table. Snake Pen Longyou drew a golden talisman in the blink of an eye.
'Hey, his talisman drawing is so smooth! I just don’t know if it works or not? Liu Shuyuan stood aside and secretly slandered him. Seeing that he had finished drawing the talisman, after waiting for a while, he folded it into a triangle and handed it to her, so she took it easily. "Okay. The Spring Festival is coming soon, I will bring it back."
'Is this the rhythm of a battle of wits? Liu Shuyuan was a little excited. He carefully put the talisman paper into his bag, chatted with Xu Zhipeng for a while, and then went back to resume his life.
Xu Zhipeng also had a headache. I'm afraid this dish is not so easy to cross. He got up and walked to Xifei Temple and asked the old monk Zhichen.
"Amitabha, it's also senior brother that I ignored!" Monk Zhichen sang a chant with an apologetic look on his face. This dish is not important to begin with. If it were not involved in the renovation of the scenic spot, the government department would probably not be able to find Xuan Wei. "I know a fellow Taoist from the Religious Association. He is a lay disciple of your Taoist school. His surname is Liang, but I can't remember his name. I think he was called something. Junior brother, just go and find out. He also knows your master. You go and report Xia Xuanwei's name might be more prestigious."
"Oh. Then I'll go down the mountain later!" Xu Zhipeng nodded and said.
"Oh, yes, Senior Brother Zhichen, I always feel strange lately."
"Oh, what's going on?"
"Look, originally there weren't many people coming to my Xuanwei place, but in the past month or two, there were suddenly more people. What's going on?"
"Haha, this senior brother seems to understand a little bit."
"Uncle Master liked purity as he got older, so he set up a formation on the road leading to your Xuanwei to block pedestrians. Maybe the formation needs daily maintenance. With Uncle Master gone, it gradually lost its appearance. Effect. So people passed by."
