He later walked out with righteous thoughts after hunger striking for several months. Practitioner Mr. Ge Xinzhong from Lianggang Village, Yongnian County, Hebei Province, took in Mr. Cheng Fengxiang and for this he was arrested and put in a detention center after police officer Yang Qingshe and his assistants came to Mr. Ge's home.

After being tortured by force-feeding until he was at his last gasp, Mr. Ge Xinzhong was sent to the county hospital, where all efforts to save him failed. He died on March 25 of this year.
