At the same time, a figure appeared not far from where Fangzheng was reciting the scriptures.
"This fool is actually reciting the scriptures to the fields. Can chanting scriptures make the seeds resistant to the cold?" Li Xueying looked at the scene in front of her speechlessly.
However, the scene in front of her was truly beautiful.
There were the hegemons of the world — humans. There were wild carnivores — wolves. There were clever and obedient squirrels and lively monkeys. Logically speaking, it should have been a chaotic battle when they were gathered together. But at that moment in time, it was so harmonious. Together with the sun, it did not look like a scene from the mortal world. It was clearly a painting!
Li Xueying took out her phone and snapped a photo of the scene. She subconsciously wanted to share it on her WeChat Moments, but she paused when she clicked confirm.
Looking at the young monk in front of her and the few animals before looking back at the tranquil monastery, Li Xueying shook her head and said, "It's rare for it to be peaceful. Why bother with the bustle?" Hence, she clicked cancel.
However, she did not know that her click had caused Fangzheng to miss another chance to complete the mission. If Fangzheng knew, he would probably cry …
Li Xueying came in front of Fangzheng who did not know of her arrival. He continued reciting the scriptures.
As Li Xueying listened to the scriptures, she watched the setting sun scatter across the tiny paddy. The golden light reflected off Fangzheng's face. At that instant, Li Xueying felt like she was looking at a golden Buddha. Unknowingly, her heart calmed down. She sat on the ground, ignoring the mud and cold. She just sat there and looked at Fangzheng. Her eyes were filled with peace and serenity. It was unknown what she was thinking about. Perhaps she was not thinking about anything. She enjoyed the tranquil feeling of being undisturbed and not thinking about anything.
After sitting there for an unknown period of time, Li Xueying suddenly felt an itch near her ankle. She looked down and was instantly stunned! She saw a few blades of grass stuck in her socks. When she moved them away a little, she was surprised to discover that around her … or to be precise, around Fangzheng, the grass seemed to grow faster than other parts of her body!
Li Xueying rubbed her eyes, feeling incredulous. Was this possible? Absolutely impossible!
Li Xueying was someone who had seen the world. Be it filming or personal interests, she had traveled nearly the entire world. He had visited all the major religions and seen countless eminent monks and capable people, but he had never seen such a capable person.
"It must be an illusion. Maybe the grass grew faster because of the water." Li Xueying thought to herself. However, she still paid attention and noted down the height of the nearby grass. Then, she took out her phone and began to record. She continued to listen to the scripture, and slowly, she calmed down without any distracting thoughts.
The sun went down and the moon rose. A layer of silver light shone on the mountaintop.
In the distance, there was an additional group of people. Director Yu had arrived with a group of film crew. When they saw Li Xueying there, they felt relieved. They returned after a meal, but Li Xueying was still sitting there motionless, facing the young monk.
The little monk was dressed in white and was bathed in the silver moonlight. He was accompanied by animals. It was as if he was emitting a pure and holy radiance. Anyone who saw him could not help but praise him for being beautiful.
Li Xueying was equally quiet. Dressed in black, she sat opposite Fangzheng. The black and white formed a strong contrast. But for some reason, everyone felt that this internationally renowned big shot was actually … a head shorter in front of this young monk.
It was as if the young monk was Buddha, and Li Xueying was a devotee who was listening to his teachings. This feeling made everyone very uncomfortable. Their idol was shorter than others by a head. How could this be?
Someone wanted to call Li Xueying away but was stopped by Director Yu. All he did was get Xiaoliu to bring a thicker cushion over. Xiaoliu walked over and sat there motionlessly.
It left Director Yu dumbfounded. He did not know what was happening. He said in disbelief, "I'll go listen as well. I want to know what scripture the monk is chanting to have such magical powers."
Just as Director Yu was about to leave, Old Tao came over and said, "Director, get a cushion. If you don't return, you will have something to sit on."
"Pui! You don't return," Director Yu scolded jokingly. He took the cushion and walked over.
Director Yu was truly curious. Was it really that godly and pleasant to listen to?
As he approached, Director Yu heard the chanting of scriptures. It did not sound any different. But as he approached, Director Yu saw Fangzheng in front of him. He felt that the monk exuded a unique bearing that made him feel at peace. It felt like all the chaotic thoughts in one's mind were swept clean. The feeling of being tangled by countless vexing threads was suddenly removed. The feeling of having a mountain weighing on one's heart removed made him feel like a farmer who had been liberated. It made him feel refreshed.
He turned back to look at Old Tao, Lin Dongshi, Luo Li and company. Then, he waved his hand, indicating for them to scram. As for himself, he placed the cushion on the ground and sat down. He quietly listened to the Buddhist scriptures and enjoyed the man's moment of tranquility.
"Odd. Odd. Even Director Yu is in such a state. Could he have been possessed? "asked Old Tao.
Lin Dongshi looked at Luo Li. "Luo Li, you are brimming with vitality. You aren't afraid of ghosts or evil. Why don't you give it a try?"
"F * * k off. Why don't you just say that I'm burly, brainless and easily fooled?" Luo Li scolded jokingly. However, he still wished to give it a try. Therefore, he flung his arms and walked forward.
"The winds are howling, the waters are cold, the heroes are leaving!" Lin Dongshi shouted at the top of his lungs.
Luo Li turned his head and glared at him. "If you dare shout again, I'll break your legs when I return!"
Lin Dongshi chuckled and did not say a word.
Luo Li took a deep breath and walked towards Fangzheng. He thought to himself, "Is there really such a strange thing in this world? That's impossible, right? "
With suspicion and vigilance, Luo Li approached with the intention of retreating at any moment. He got closer and closer, and finally … he sat down beside Director Yu. He rubbed against the cushion and chose a comfortable position to sit there. Then, he went to listen to the scripture.
"Holy sh * t, even the hot-blooded blockhead is in such a state. Isn't this way too strange?" exclaimed Lin Dongshi and Old Tao.
"Why don't we head over to take a look? The more people there are, the more vigor there is. All sorts of evil will be washed away, "said Old Tao.
Lin Dongshi clenched his teeth and said, "Let's go. Let's go take a look."
Therefore, the group of people walked over in a hubbub. Along the way, they mustered their courage. When they really arrived nearby, Lin Dongshi and company were collectively dumbfounded.
Finally, the few of them were chased away reluctantly. Not long later, they brought blankets and a stove over. Then, everyone surrounded Fangzheng and collectively sat down to listen to the scriptures. No one dared to make a sound the entire time, afraid that they would disturb Fangzheng's chanting.
