This scene left many people who had come from afar dumbfounded. They had seen monasteries with abundant incense offerings, but they had never seen one with such abundant incense offerings!
At the same time, people began taking pictures and sharing them on their WeChat Moments and Weibo.
The Internet was already in an uproar from last night's events. Today, seeing how popular One Finger Monastery was and the Living Buddha Laba Congee was, countless people beat their chests and wailed.
"I just want to ask if I can make it if I fly back from overseas."
"I want to ask the same question. I'm closer. I'm in Hebei."
"Can a beauty cut the queue?"
…
"Don't even think about it. I heard that One Finger Monastery only cooks nine pots of Laba Congee. Even if everyone gets a spoonful, it's hard to say who will get it! But what's certain is that more than half of the people lined up for nothing, "someone said.
Everyone sighed when they heard that, regretting not taking action earlier.
"I heard that One Finger Monastery gives out congee every year during the Laba Festival. Those who want to drink it have to wake up early next year!"
"Don't listen to him. It's useless to wake up early! The villagers near Mt. One Finger all come up the mountain a day earlier and line up through the night! They bring their tents up the mountain! If you really want to drink it, stay in One Finger Village and follow the villagers up the mountain ahead of time! That's the way of the king! "
"Previous poster, you work in One Finger Village, right?"
…
There were more and more discussions about Mt. One Finger, One Finger Monastery, and Fangzheng on the Internet. All sorts of headlines appeared, and instantly, Fangzheng's name rapidly spread across the country.
However, there were pros and cons. For example, Fangzheng had finally caught the attention of some people, and some people had finally cast their gazes on One Finger Monastery.
In Spring City, on Old Fenghua Street, there was an old mansion left behind from the Republic of China era. Two armed guards stood at the entrance of the old mansion, their gazes extremely sharp. If someone were to observe carefully, he or she would find that the people around the siheyuan seemed to have countless connections with the siheyuan.
In the courtyard house, a man was whispering something as an elder listened while tidying a pine tree in front of him.
After hearing that, the elder nodded slightly. "It's the country's blessing to have capable people in the country. What did the higher-ups say? "
"The higher-ups' intentions were subtle, but they ultimately said to let you make the decision. After all, no one has ever experienced something like this … Living Buddha … "The middle-aged man sighed.
The elder said with a smile, "It's true that I haven't experienced it before. However, be it a living Buddha or a fake Buddha, it's useless to look at the process. Bring some people to take a look and do a detailed investigation. I want all of his information. "
"Don't worry, Elder Yu. I'll handle this personally." The middle-aged man nodded.
Elder Yu waved his hand and said, "Go. Don't come to my place if you have nothing to do in the future. I'm old, and I don't have the energy to compete with you young people. If you have any problems, solve them yourself. "
"Elder Yu, although we are young, we still haven't traveled enough. We need your guidance," the middle-aged man said respectfully.
Old Man Yu smiled and didn't think much of it. He continued to take care of the tree in peace, his gaze growing more serious and curious. Living Buddha? Does Buddha really exist in this world? It seemed that they knew about that matter. Otherwise, they wouldn't have let me come into contact with him. Thinking of this, Elder Yu shook his head slightly and went back to pruning his old tree with peace of mind.
After the middle-aged man left, an old woman walked out of the room and said, "Old man, Qing-er said she will be back in two days."
"Qing-er? Didn't that darn lass run off to the deep mountains in the south to squat there? She's been gone for so many years. What kind of demonic wind blew today to actually blow a 'deity' like her back? "Elder Yu said with some displeasure.
When the old woman heard that, she pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Don't pretend in front of me. I know what you pee on the moment you lift your leg. Laugh if you want to! Just don't laugh your teeth off! "
Indeed, the moment Elder Yu heard that, his tense face instantly turned into a smile. Following that, he said with a smile, "That darn lass, after she comes back, she has to give me a good back massage. There are so many massage masters, but none of them are as good as her. By the way, when is that lass coming back? "
"She said in two days. I wonder if it's today or tomorrow …" The old woman said with a smile.
"Little Li? Go buy groceries immediately! Also, clear all the chicken, duck, and fish out of the kitchen! I want to be a vegetarian for the next month! "Elder Yu shouted.
Although Little Li was puzzled when he heard that, unsure why the old man, who loved to eat meat, would suddenly change his mind, he still did as he was told.
At that moment, on Mt. One Finger, Fangzheng had no idea that a storm was coming. However, the storm on Mt. One Finger was already giving him a headache! This was not the first time Fangzheng had dreamed that One Finger Monastery would be on fire. The incense offerings would gather together like a dragon made of green smoke that soared into the clouds. Even the strong winds wouldn't disperse it!
And he had also become the best master in the world. He was honored wherever he went.
But when he suddenly woke up from his dream and realized that he had really become famous, he suddenly realized that being famous wasn't a good thing! At the very least, he no longer dared to head to the front hall.
Fangzheng slumped over the wall and watched as more and more people gathered in One Finger Monastery's front hall. Outside the door, there were people lining up on the Bridge of Helplessness. Even further away, there was a black mass. He didn't know if he should be happy or sad.
Outside the door, Red Boy had already lit up all the Laba Congee. Just as everyone expected, the number of people who received the congee compared to the number of people lining up was less than one percent. Faced with the huge group of people with bloodshot eyes, Red Boy felt a little apprehensive. He hurriedly put away the pot and other equipment and ran back to One Finger Monastery.
Fangzheng had no intention of cooking any more. It wasn't that the System was stingy and didn't provide the ingredients, but if he continued cooking, he would have to shut up for another day. This made him, who was a little talkative, feel terrible. Therefore, he decided not to cook anymore.
"Master, there are more and more people at the foot of the mountain," Squirrel ran over.
"Master, there really isn't enough incense cauldrons. Many visitors are complaining," said Monkey.
"Master, we can't just ignore the money, right? People have no place to insert the high incense they bought! "Lone Wolf ran over as well. He was still holding a high incense stick in his mouth.
"What are you doing?" Fangzheng asked out of curiosity.
Lone Wolf said, "People bought it, and I agreed to insert it for them. But I bragged too much, and there's no place to insert it. All I can do is continue holding it in my mouth. Now, I don't even dare return, afraid I'll be seen and accused of tricking him. "
