Chapter III. Sword Asks Beiyan 56.Villain Role (2)
As for why these cases of missing persons will eventually be involved in this so-called 'Huashen Sect'? This matter will begin with the 'main doctrine' of the Huashen Sect.
Because this founding patriarch of the 'Huashen Sect' was originally just a 'faithful' believer of the Celestial God Sect, it was precisely because of this 'apprenticeship experience' that the teachings of the early Huashen Sect were simply a 'plagiarized version' after being 'localized' and then 'revised'. With the development and growth of the 'Huashen Sect' in the Northern Yan Dynasty, it has successfully attracted some 'creative talents' to join, so today's 'Huashen Doctrine' has added the part of 'independent innovation'.
Religious organizations can be broadly divided into two sects: 'monotheism' and 'polytheism' in terms of doctrine alone. For example, in the Shimenism, which also belongs to the 'localization of imported goods', although their gods can also be divided into three different forms: the past life, the present life, and the next life, in the final analysis, they are still personal images that have been interpreted by myths; And often in the teachings of 'monotheism', there is also a strong 'concept of exclusivity'.
As for the doctrine of polytheism, there are not so many rules and regulations. In their view, even a single name can become a devout belief for certain groups. For example, Shen Gui's 'mother's shamanism', although all branches have the same species and origin, the 'gods' that each shaman or goddess believes in and worship are different; There are also flowers and trees, mountains and rivers; There are also animal protectors who worship foxes, yellows, whites, willows, and grays; Even those apocryphal characters that originally existed in folklore and storytelling have a group of faithful believers in the 'middle two diseases'.
However, in the 'polytheistic religion', both the Xuanmen disciples and the shamans, seem to uphold a tolerant and even 'conniving' attitude towards these acts of renovating the 'basic doctrines', and even this 'indifferent' attitude makes outsiders vaguely think that they may only pay lip service to their beliefs......
And whether it is the 'Authentic Celestial God Sect' or the 'Modified Huashen Sect', both are real monotheistic sects. Perhaps the only difference between the two is that the founding patriarch of the Heavenly God Sect has now 'attained the Tao and ascended to heaven', while this founding ancestor of the Huashen Sect is still walking in the 'purgatory on earth' and saving the world.
Don't look at this 'traitor' of the Celestial God Sect who has no moral bottom line, but he is definitely not a fool! According to Mr. Water Candle, it has been more than 20 years since the rise of the Huashen Sect; The Huashen Sect, which is widely believed, has never touched the main towns of the Northern Yan Dynasty! This extremely keen sense of smell and judgment alone was enough to impress Shen Gui at this 'sect leader' who pretended to be a ghost!
Although the Emperor of Heaven of Northern Yan has always adopted free-range methods for religious personnel like them; The Taoist temples of Xuanmen and the temples of Shimen are now also blooming everywhere in the land of the Northern Yan Dynasty; But the specific situation between the Huashen Sect and the two of them is indeed completely different, and it cannot be said in the same day!
First of all, most of the believers in Xuanmen are either rich or noble, and even the current Beiyan National Teacher was once the eldest disciple of the Xuanyue Dao Palace; Although the Shimen are not as favored as the Xuanmen, they are also inextricably linked with the generals of the Northern Yan Dynasty; It can even be said that all the brave generals who were famous and famous in the Northern Yan Dynasty were lay disciples of Zen Buddhism nine times out of ten.
Moreover, these two sects are also subject to the control of the imperial court's 'Monk and Taoist Division'. Every person who is a monk and cultivates 800 must have a degree issued by the Yamen of the Sangha and Taoism, and beware of illegal acts such as pretending to be a monk and cheating, shaving his ordination without permission to avoid paying taxes, and so on. Therefore, these two sects have a very strict set of orders and rules for accepting disciples.
However, the Huashen Sect was completely different from them, and it was just that they had not been officially recognized by the Northern Yan Imperial Court, but they simply started because they absorbed the victims! Based on this alone, as long as this Huashen Sect leader dares to show his face in broad daylight, Emperor Tianyou will definitely not sit back and watch him 'get away with it', even if he is convicted of 'abducting a woman from a good family', he has to send this kid to the mountain nest of Sanjin and let him go down the mine to dig coal for a lifetime!
In other words, if Shen Gui wants to investigate the disappearance of the population, he must leave Yanjing City and go deep into those remote areas that are rarely populated; But now that Liu Zhi committed the tragedy of the Wang family's annihilation, he has not shown up, and Shen Gui has fallen into an embarrassing dilemma for a while......
"The slave family feels that although these disappearances are a major matter that His Majesty personally inquires, you don't need to worry about it at the beginning. Just thinking about it, you can know that the 'Sect Master' kicked away the Celestial God Sect, obviously trying to fool the people through some tricks to achieve the goal of amassing huge wealth. Anyone who is so greedy for money will never give up the prosperous and luxurious life in the city! Therefore, according to the Nu family, this person should be hidden in a large city on weekdays; But if we want to see the demeanor of this 'Huayu God', we must start from the countryside and forests, so it is not a problem that can be solved in a moment. What's more, although the slave family suspects that the case was committed by the 'Huashen Sect', why they kidnapped so many ordinary people has not yet figured it out......
When Shen Gui heard this, he quickly turned around and asked Li Le'an, who was bowing his head and contemplating:
"Le'an, according to your diagnosis, how long will Lord Feng have to cultivate before he can come forward to take charge of the big and small government affairs of the government?"
"Actually, it's okay now, but maybe because the high fever hasn't completely faded, Lord Luo should still have a spinning dizziness in his head! If you want to be safe, you should be completely cured after three days. ”
And Mr. Shui Zhu listened to the conversation between the two, reached out and pinched his tight eyebrows, and said with a little impatience:
"Isn't it true that you still can't see it? The 'troublesome things' in the Yanjing Mansion have always been handled by the slave family. Although my lord is rich and has a compassionate and kind heart, he is really not very good at handling cases and government affairs. So whether my husband is in good health or not, in fact, has nothing to do with these two cases! ”
When Shen Gui heard her words, he also smiled and shook his head:
"Mr. Shui Zhu is Lord Luo's real 'staff master', which Shen already knew when he first met. And the reason why I mention the recovery of Lord Luo's body is not because I want him to come forward to deal with the problem, please rest assured that Mr. Water Candle is this; In addition, in Wang Yutian's murder case, we also ignored some details before......"
As soon as Mr. Water Candle heard this, he immediately cheered up his spirits:
"Oh? May I hear it! ”
Shen Gui snapped his fingers and counted them carefully:
"First of all, Mr. Fang said that the loss of the file of Wang Yutian's murder case was caused by a greedy arrester in the government and colluded with the murderer Liu Zhi; On the face of it, the two of them responded to the theft of the file inside and out, as if there was no problem; But if it is really the murderer Liu Zhi who wants to steal the file, it is obvious that he doesn't want this case to be turned over again. If this is the case, then he can sneak into the mansion silently, and then unknowingly set a fire and directly burn down the entire study. In this way, not only can the work be done neatly, but also his original intention can be hidden; I think that with Liu Zhi's skills, it is not difficult to put a fire at all. And if he were to act alone, the chances of revealing his identity would be much smaller. ”
When Mr. Water Candle heard this, he didn't show any objections in other respects except that he didn't know much about Liu Zhi's skills.
"This brings me to the second point. In the Renhe pawnshop where Wang Yutian works, there is also an eyeliner who has been monitoring him for more than 20 years. According to the results of Shen's investigation of him, now that Wang Yutian was killed in a pawnshop, Chen Qichang Chen, the secretary of the military department who is the proprietor behind the scenes, has turned a blind eye to this matter! Even if it is a small industry, after all, it is a homicide that happened at the feet of the Son of Heaven. As a second-rank member of the Northern Yan Imperial Court, how dare he turn a deaf ear like this? Could it be that he is not afraid of some people who disagree with his political views and use the topic to play? ”
When Mr. Water Candle heard this, he was a little unimpressed. But Shen Gui's next question made her fall into a long contemplation:
"The third and most important point. The other party obviously got the tip, and also knew that Wang Yutian's Zhenlong nail had been handed over to me Shen Gui, but why didn't he come to Shen, but instead went to Wang Yutian, a 'useless person', for bad luck? Besides, judging from the means they used to kill Wang Yutian's family, there should be no habit of destroying corpses and destroying traces! But Wang Yutian's body is now gone, what is this for? ”
After Mr. Shui Zhu was silent for a long time, he finally sighed, and led Shen Gui and Li Le'an to the front of the bookshelf with his eyes.
She first gently turned a plum vase on the bookshelf...... After hearing a few 'rattling' sounds, the entire bookcase moved a small gap to the right......
At the same time, Mr. Water Candle immediately shouted into the crack of the black press:
"Who's coming?"
It didn't take long for a man's answer to come from the cracks:
“…… Sells smoked chicken sauce meat. ”
This set of passwords that have no head and no brains, and have changed the role, really made Shen Guisheng feel like he couldn't cry or laugh.
