Fangzheng teased Squirrel Monkey and shouted, "Begin!"
With that said, he raised his arm and threw!
Sou!
Ga! Squirrel, Monkey, and Lone Wolf were collectively dumbfounded!
With Fangzheng's monstrous strength, although the pole was a little light, he was still able to cross the river with a throw!
Monkey was indeed a cunning thief. He suddenly came to his senses and ran!
When Lone Wolf saw this, he howled and ran as fast as he could. At the same time, he shouted, "Darn Monkey, I'll show you what speed is!"
As they were too close to the river, Monkey reached it in a few steps. The moment his feet touched the water, he shuddered and immediately retracted his feet. He exclaimed inwardly, "It's so cold! It's even colder than White River's water! "
While he was in a daze, a white figure appeared and soared into the sky. With a plop, it plunged into the river. Then, he heard it say, "This is speed. It's so fast. I … I … It's so cold. Awoo … Cold …"
Others might not understand, but Fangzheng did. He immediately rolled over in laughter. The stupid wolf was indeed stupid. Monkey had only probed the water, but the fellow had plunged in … It would be a wonder if he wasn't cold.
However, the river wasn't wide or deep. Gritting his teeth, he crossed it in two steps. Lone Wolf was willing to go all out for food. He charged over and picked up the wooden pole with his mouth. Immediately, he beamed. He jumped on the spot a few times, clearly showing off to Monkey. In his heart, he thought happily, "Awesome! I'm indeed the best. I'll have an extra meal tonight. Haha … I want to eat two bowls! Yes, two big bowls! Abbot, I'll go broke from eating. "
Lone Wolf thought happily as he took small steps and entered the river. Instantly, he sobered up from the cold. He quickly crossed the river and completed the mission.
But … a figure came straight at him.
"Ga! Ga!" Monkey stood on the riverbank and looked at him with a nefarious smile!
"F * * k, what's going on? Go away! Don't come over! "Lone Wolf cried out inwardly. Monkey was going to intercept him!
Lone Wolf hurriedly swam downstream. He could not be intercepted by the darn monkey!
However, Monkey continued running downstream. Helpless, Lone Wolf swam upstream once again, hoping to avoid Monkey. However, although he ran fast on the road, he was not as fast as Monkey in the water. Whether he went up or down, he was blocked.
Lone Wolf was about to cry as he shouted inwardly, Are you shameless? Don't even think about snatching my stick. The extra meal is mine!
Lone Wolf tried several rounds but failed to reach the shore. Monkey followed him the entire way.
When Lone Wolf saw that this couldn't go on, he thought to himself, "It's just a monkey. How can he stop me? Let's go all out, charge! "
Lone Wolf gritted his teeth and charged out of the deep water region. He stepped into the shallow water region and sprinted with all his might! "Charge! Once we're ashore, we won't be afraid anymore! Holy shit … why is there another pit?! "
Lone Wolf's foot missed, and his valiant and high-spirited aura instantly vanished. All that was left was solemn and stirring …
When Lone Wolf fell into the pit, his mouth loosened and the rod floated up. Monkey went forward and grabbed it. Then, he stood by the river and waited.
When Lone Wolf appeared, Monkey very naturally turned around and handed the pole to Fangzheng in front of Lone Wolf. Then, he threw a disdainful look at Lone Wolf!
Lone Wolf immediately had the urge to burst into tears as he looked pitifully at Fangzheng. He was the one who had picked him up! That darn monkey hadn't done a thing!
Fangzheng looked at the smug Monkey and the bitter Lone Wolf. He laughed out loud and said, "From the looks of it, Monkey has won this round."
Lone Wolf immediately wore a bitter look.
Monkey winked and smiled. However, the moment Fangzheng said that, he raised his hand and gave Monkey a slap. Monkey sprawled to the ground and nearly vomited.
Monkey was perplexed, and neither was Lone Wolf.
Fangzheng smiled. "This Penniless Monk doesn't mind taking shortcuts, but harming others to benefit oneself is not to do so. Tonight, Lone Wolf will have an additional meal. Monkey will have it for dinner. "
Monkey was instantly dumbfounded. His smiling face instantly turned bitter. He finally understood that it was very displeasing to be harming others to benefit oneself!
As Fangzheng's figure disappeared into the distance, his voice sounded. "Do unto others what you would not have them do unto you. This logic applies to all living beings. Monkey, you are quite wild. There's still a long way to go before you can join my Buddhist sect. "
Monkey was taken aback. After hearing Fangzheng's words, he scratched his ass as though he had gained some enlightenment. His displeasure dissipated as he hurriedly followed.
Lone Wolf followed in high spirits. To him, having food to eat and having an additional meal was enough.
Fangzheng regretted giving him an additional meal when he saw the disappointing fellow!
As for Monkey's reaction, Fangzheng secretly nodded in approval. Monkey's perceptivity was indeed high. However, there was one thing Fangzheng did not understand. How could a wild monkey become so smart after eating some Crystal Rice?
"The Lotus Flower Conveyance General's scripture coincidentally gave him sentience. That's why he is so smart. Once one gains enlightenment, one can become a Buddha. Although this monkey did not become a Buddha, he received great benefits, "explained the System.
Only then did Fangzheng understand the reason.
He returned to the temple's entrance with the wolf, monkey, and squirrel. Looking at the small temple and his rice vat, Fangzheng sighed. "I'm still not hard-hearted enough. Now that I have another mouth to feed, the days ahead won't be easy."
With that said, Fangzheng returned to the temple hall. He opened the Merit Incense and looked inside. There were some loose change and a few hundred-yuan bills. They were all money from high incense. Added together, Fangzheng smiled wryly. "It's less than a thousand yuan. It's just a few Crystal Rice seeds. It looks like I have to consider the problem of food … "
"System, do you have cheaper Crystal Rice? Since we are so familiar with each other, why don't you give me a discount? "
"Yes, but the maturation period is very long," said the System.
"How long?" Fangzheng's eyes lit up. With the production of Crystal Rice, it was not a problem as long as the maturation period was not a few years!
"You have six months to mature. However, Crystal Rice is very picky about its environment. If you take good care of this crappy mountain of yours, you should be able to harvest it in eight months. However, if you are lazy, you will probably freeze to death in the winter. Not a single grain will be harvested … "said the System.
Fangzheng was stunned. Eight months? Wouldn't that mean that it would be growing every day except winter?
"Then, what do you mean by taking good care of it?" asked Fangzheng.
"Crystal Rice needs to be nourished by Buddhistic aura. It needs the nourishment of scriptures and incense offerings. It does not like weeds or pests. Crystal Rice itself is not polluted, so you cannot use pesticides. At most, you can water it with Unrooted Clean Aqua. Other than that, there is nothing else. As for the exact steps, I will give you a planting guide when you buy the seeds, "said the System.
"Uh … That troublesome? Isn't this the rice that Buddha eats? Does Buddha also plant rice and do farm work? "asked Fangzheng.
