被真理唤醒的心(39)

大法弟子必要时会设法聚在一起交流。在一次交流中，我认识了北京大法弟子小阎。

一九九九年十二月三十一日夜晚，小阎和一万多名大法弟子从各个方向自发汇集到天安门广场, 在广场上举行了一个抵制迫害法轮大法的和平集会。

大法弟子们几乎每个人都准备了或大或小的横幅， 在广场上展开——

“法轮大法好！”

“中国需要法轮大法！”

“世界需要真善忍！”……

天安门广场成了一片壮观的横幅的海洋。

大批警察挥舞警棍毒打大法弟子。

大法弟子们一边承受警察毒打、一边拚命护住横幅。

“那天晚上警察打大法弟子都打疯了。”小阎说。

警察一拳砸向小阎的眼睛，使她的眼睛肿了三个月，一拳砸向她的鼻子，打的她鼻血直流。当小阎被打的快晕过去时，一位女弟子赶过来用自己的身体护住小阎。警察马上掉转拳头打那位女弟子。

小阎被警察关进天安门派出所里施一种叫“背宝剑”的酷刑。

“疼的当时都想撞墙死了。”小阎说。

警察把小阎的丈夫叫到派出所，让他看自己妻子忍受酷刑的惨状，以为他会叫妻子妥协。

结果却相反。

小阎的丈夫，一位平素胆小怕事的工人，见到妻子受酷刑后大声谴责警察暴行并鼓励妻子：“你要坚定！不要妥协！”

他对我说，“我真的被我妻子震撼了，一个女人那么坚强的忍受男人都受不了的酷刑。”

酷刑也没法让小阎妥协，警察只好把她放了。

小阎的丈夫本来是反对妻子去天安门的，从那以后他支持大法弟子上天安门为大法和平请愿，并且开始修炼大法。

他对我说：“有一天，我也会去天安门。”

小阎十一岁的儿子、一位小大法弟子对我说：“我也想去天安门。”（待续）

Dafa practitioners would manage to get together to share thoughts when necessary. In one gathering I met Yan, a Beijing fellow practitioner.

On the night of December 31, 1999, Yan, along with over ten thousand Dafa practitioners, spontaneously gathered in Tiananmen Square from all directions. They held a peaceful rally of resisting the persecution against Dafa in the square.

Almost each of the Dafa practitioners had prepared a banner small or big. They unfolded them in the square —

“Falun Dafa is Good!”

“China needs Falun Dafa!”

“The world needs Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance!”…

Tiananmen Square turned into a spectacular ocean of banners.

A large number of policemen fiercely struck at the Dafa practitioners with police batons.

The Dafa practitioners desperately protected their banners while enduring the fierce beating.

“That night, the policemen beat Dafa practitioners extremely frenziedly,” Yan said.

A policeman threw punches on Yan’s eyes, making her eyes swell for three months; he threw another punch on Yan’s nose, making blood surge out of her nose. When Yan was beaten to nearly fainting, a female practitioner rushed up to protect Yan with her body. The policeman immediately turned to beat her.

Yan was taken into the Tiananmen Police Station and was tormented with a torture named “Carrying a sword.”

“The torture made me so painful, for a moment I really felt like striking my head against the wall to kill myself,” Yan said.

The policemen summoned Yan’s husband to the police station, making him look at his wife suffering the torture. They thought he would ask his wife to give in.

Yet things turned out the opposite.

Yan’s husband, a usually timid and cowardly factory worker, loudly condemned the police abuse and encouraged his wife, “Stand firm! Don’t give in!” when he saw the brutal sight.

“I was really shaken and awed by my wife. She was so toughly enduring the torture even men couldn’t endure,” Yan’s husband said to me.

Even tortures couldn’t make Yan give in. Police had to release her.

Before, Yan’s husband opposed his wife going to Tiananmen Square. From then on, he approved of Dafa practitioners going to Tiananmen Square to peacefully petition for Dafa, and he began practicing Dafa too.

He said to me, “Some day, I’ll go to Tiananmen Square too.”

Yan’s eleven-year-old son, a little Dafa practitioner, said to me, “I want to go to Tiananmen Square too.”
