When people looked up at the huge Buddha statue in the sky, they saw a person in the palm of the Buddha statue. The person was dressed in snow-white clothes and had a jade-like face. However, he looked solemn and dignified, making people feel deep veneration!
"That's Abbot Fangzheng!" Someone recognized him.
"Abbot Fangzheng saved us!"
"Amitabha. Thank you, Abbot Fangzheng, for saving my entire family …"
"Thank you, Abbot Fangzheng."
"Thank you, Abbot Fangzheng."
…
Everyone bowed and expressed their gratitude.
In midair, Fangzheng's eyes swept across everyone like the eyes of a god. He saw the mother who sacrificed herself to save her son. He also saw the husband who did not hesitate to save his wife. He saw the teacher and the students who protected the students. He also saw the mother who held the baby with a smile on her face. He saw the father who protected the child even in death …
Fangzheng smiled when he saw their smiling faces.
He, who had spent so much merit points and everything, suddenly felt that his mood was not that bad after all!
[One minute is up. Hurry up and dispel the spell.] The system prompted.
Fangzheng nodded. Just as Fangzheng was about to retract his divine power, he suddenly thought of something. He waved his hand and said loudly, "With kindness in your heart, you are Buddha! After today, This Penniless Monk shall depart. I hope that benefactors will cherish today's rebirth and treat yourselves and others well. Amitabha. "
With that said, the gigantic Buddha statue soared into the sky with Fangzheng and disappeared …
Everyone was dumbfounded and didn't know what to say.
It was only after a while that the crowd regained their senses.
"Master Fangzheng has left."
"Master Fangzheng seems to have really left. Why did he leave?"
"Yeah, why is Master Fang Zheng leaving?"
"He is the guardian of Huaxia."
"Master once said that if there is goodness in our hearts, we are Buddhas. After experiencing life and death, I've seen through many things. No matter how much you have, when you die, you can't take anything with you. I just want to cherish the present and love everyone around me. "
"Yeah, I crawled back from the brink of death. I suddenly feel that those so-called setbacks I encountered before are nothing. It's good to be alive … I just want to live a better life for the rest of my life. "
"The great master helped us, but he left. I truly suspected that his departure was due to this great divine ability … Just like in the novels, the eruption of power was too great, and the natural laws were unable to suppress him any longer. Thus, he ascended. Since the Great Master wants to help more people, then let us fulfill his wish. "
Everyone nodded in agreement …
"Master, you are finally back. Our family suddenly changed." Fangzheng obviously did not fly far. Instead, he feigned ignorance and immediately ran back to One Finger Monastery to check on the situation.
However, the moment Fangzheng landed, he realized that One Finger Monastery had completely changed!
The Heavenly Dragon Pond, Bridge of Helplessness, and Frost Bamboo were all gone. All that was left was a dilapidated temple. On the temple was a sign that was trembling in the wind: "One Finger Temple"!
"Master, those workers were just transferred to the foot of the mountain. I didn't let them come up when the mountain suddenly became like this. Besides, no one knows when there will be aftershocks, so they are all hiding outside, "said Lone Wolf.
Fangzheng nodded without a word.
Salted Fish said, "Sigh, what's going on? Our beautiful monastery has been reduced to such a state in a short time. At least leave me a water hole … Great, as a fish, I don't even have a water hole. "
"This is the most dilapidated monastery I've ever seen," said Red Boy.
"Thankfully, my home is still here." Squirrel looked at the lush bodhi tree and patted his chest, heaving a sigh of relief.
Fangzheng did not say a word the entire time. All he did was look carefully. Now, One Finger Monastery had really returned to the appearance of One Finger Temple of the past. The dilapidated walls, dilapidated houses, and dilapidated doors … Even the Skanda statue was dilapidated.
The only thing that was different was probably the bodhi tree that had sprouted in the winter under the influence of Buddhistic aura, wishes, and incense offerings.
But overall, Fangzheng immediately found the feeling he had when he lived in the monastery with Zen Master One Finger. The feeling of returning to his childhood made his heart tremble. That familiar feeling made Fangzheng's eyes moisten … At that moment, he suddenly felt that no matter how big or glorious a monastery was, it wasn't what he pursued. What he pursued was, in fact, everything from the very beginning!
Vaguely, Fangzheng seemed to see Zen Master One Finger standing at the door, using one finger to hook a brush and write a couplet.
He also seemed to see Zen Master One Finger in the yard, bending his back and sweeping the ground …
He also seemed to see Zen Master One Finger standing in the monastery, smiling at him …
"Don't stain a square inch of your mind with gold. Vanish all the splendor to reveal the truth … I didn't understand it in the past, but I do now. Amitabha." Fangzheng pressed his palms together.
"Master, what do you mean?" Squirrel didn't understand.
Fangzheng thought for a moment and said with a smile, "It means that no matter how good or bad a place is, it's still inferior to one's own kennel. Let's go home!"
Fangzheng walked into One Finger Temple.
Red Boy, Salted Fish, Lone Wolf, Monkey, Squirrel, and company exchanged looks. Clearly, they didn't understand what Fangzheng meant, but they still followed.
The moment Fangzheng entered the backyard, the first thing he did was find some things and help Lone Wolf make a brand new kennel.
Fangzheng realized that although the System said that everything would be taken away, he still retained the skills he had learned. Therefore, it was naturally very easy for him to make these things.
Then, Fangzheng found some broken wooden boards and made a new bed for Monkey. As he didn't have any extra materials, Red Boy decided to temporarily squeeze with Monkey.
"Master, they already have a kennel. What about me?" Salted Fish looked pitifully at Fangzheng.
Fangzheng thought for a moment and said, "Sleep in the temple hall."
Salted Fish didn't mind. On the contrary, the temple hall's architecture was better than the kitchen. Hence, he left happily.
After everyone was settled, Fangzheng turned his head to look at the meditation room in the middle. It was Zen Master One Finger's meditation room. Later, the System renovated the monastery, and Fangzheng entered it to look like it had been renovated. Back then, Fangzheng felt that the clean environment was pretty good …
But now, Fangzheng realized that what he yearned for back then wasn't a clean and beautiful meditation room, but to distance himself from Zen Master One Finger. He wanted to forget some things and suffer less. It was a form of escape …
Now, when he looked back at the meditation room, Fangzheng wasn't afraid. All he felt was excitement … The excitement of returning home in glory!
