"Holy sh * t, I finally know why Sima Guang smashed the vat back then. Ah pui! I mean why Sima Guang smashed the vat. If it was such a huge vat, I would have smashed it too! System, although the System's products are economical, aren't you a little too big!? Are you sure this was prepared for me and not for an elephant? "Fangzheng circled the water vat.
The mouth of the water vat was 1.5 meters in diameter and almost two meters tall! The brown water vat had a gilded Buddha character engraved on it! The Buddha character was written in a very imposing manner. At a glance, it looked rather imposing. Together with the huge water vat, it added a bit of grandeur.
Fangzheng pulled at the golden border of the Buddha character on the water vat but failed to remove it. He bit it again and spat, "It's so hard. It's indeed not gold! System, aren't you being a scammer? You made it gold, but it's not gold. Aren't you just fooling me? "
"This is Buddha Gold, not mortal gold. Buddha Gold has the effect of exorcising evil and turning calamities into blessings. It's best you don't have any designs on it. These are the words on the Buddha Vat. Even if you crack your teeth from biting it, the words will not change. "
"Ahem … What are you talking about? I'm just seeing if it's real gold. Who wants it? " Fangzheng rubbed his nose in embarrassment when his thoughts were seen through. He flicked his sleeves and was about to drink some water when he turned anxious.
Fangzheng circled the kitchen a few times before shouting, "I … Amitabha! Where's my water vat!? Was I robbed? That's not right. Which villager doesn't have a few water vats? Why would they steal mine? "
That's right. The water vat in Fangzheng's kitchen was gone along with the water in the vat!
"That water vat is a secular object. With the Buddha Vat, the water vat naturally had to be thrown away. I helped you throw it away. There's no need to thank me. "
"Thank you my ass!" Fangzheng cursed inwardly as he said, "Thank you? You are overthinking things. I want to smack you! That's my water vat! Can't you inform me before throwing it away? Also, where's the water inside? "
"It's all gone." The System showed no signs of repentance.
Fangzheng was exasperated as well. He leaned over the Buddha Vat's side and peered inside. It was clean without a drop of water.
Fangzheng was immediately too deep for tears. He couldn't even take a sip of water.
Fangzheng ran to the well in the backyard and pressed down on it. The crystal emitted a sizzling sound, but it could not be pressed out. Without water as a primer, it was basically impossible to count on it to drink water.
"Sigh, it looks like I really have to go down the mountain to fetch water." Fangzheng was truly helpless. However, he still picked up the shoulder pole and picked up two buckets of water.
"Eh? So light? That's not right. It wasn't this light in the past. It was very heavy. "Fangzheng weighed the metal bucket in his hand. The metal bucket clattered loudly, so it was clearly not fake. Fangzheng immediately reacted. He had cultivated the Great Strength Vajra Palm, so his strength was incomparable to before.
Fangzheng said with a bitter smile, "Come on, System. You already planned for me to fetch the water, right? No wonder he gave me such a martial art. Turns out he was just a coolie. "
The moment he stepped out, he saw Lone Wolf running back from afar while wagging his tail. Fangzheng's eyes darted around when he saw Lone Wolf.
Mt. One Finger was perfectly straight. The path up and down the mountain was similarly uneven. The steep steps, coupled with the lack of maintenance over the years, had many places broken. One had to be especially careful when walking. Thankfully, the path was two meters wide. As long as one did not deliberately jump to the side, there was no danger. Instead, it added a unique flavor to Mt. One Finger.
At the same time, Mt. One Finger did not simply point towards the sky. Instead, it was segmented. There were a total of three segments, resembling bamboo shoots or human knuckles. Every joint was an area of its own. There were forests, grasslands, and springs.
Fangzheng was headed for the second segment. There was a natural spring there, and the spring water that flowed out was extremely sweet. It flowed down the mountain and passed by One Finger Village. Many people in the village drank the water from the spring. However, with the development of technology, every household had a mobile underground water supply. The number of people who drank the spring water decreased. In addition, the village had been developing the desolate lands, destroying the waterways of the spring. The waterways had been turned into paddy fields. If people wanted to drink the spring water, they could only go up the mountain.
It was not easy to go up the mountain, so few people drank it.
With regards to this, many elders found it a pity. However, they continued reclaiming the land. Everything was for survival.
Fangzheng could only sigh with regards to this. Technology was changing with each passing day, but nature was also suffering even greater destruction. People's memories were also being wiped away by technology. If a person were to leave the village for a few years and then return, it would basically be the same person as before. That was change. Fangzheng always shook his head with regards to this change. Development that destroyed the environment would not end well in any place.
At that moment, on the steep steps, a person was carrying two water buckets. Behind him was a wolf the size of a calf. However, the wolf was following behind in an aggrieved manner. On its back were two tiny water buckets. The water buckets were tied to its body with a piece of wood and rope. It looked rather odd.
"What are you shouting for? Do you want to eat Crystal Rice? If you want to eat it, work hard. That's not right. This is called cultivation! Do you know what cultivation is? Cultivation of the body, cultivation of the mind. What is cultivation of the body? It is to train one's body. Look at me. These two buckets of mine are bigger than yours. Are you not convinced? You are now my monastery's Guardian Dog. In the future, you will be like Buddha and become the Left Guardian God. Now, with just this bit of training, why are you crying like a wolf? "reprimanded Fangzheng.
Lone Wolf whimpered a few times before falling silent. It was probably thinking, "I only whimpered twice. Do you have to say so much … Sigh, life sure is tough."
The man and wolf arrived by the mountainside as they conversed. Fangzheng fetched two large buckets of water and filled two tiny buckets for Lone Wolf. Only then did the man and wolf return.
When they returned to the mountaintop, Fangzheng looked up and saw the dark clouds in the sky. At the same time, the wind had clearly become stronger.
"Sigh, the wind is blowing. After this rain, the weather will change. The Grotto-heaven is coming soon. It's time to stock up on things for the winter. But … What should I stock up on? " Fangzheng was vexed once again. He only had 1300 yuan in his pocket. It looked like a lot, but it was not much to spend. More importantly, he had no way of going down the mountain to purchase supplies for the winter!
"Forget it. I'll give Grandpa Tan a call when I return. I'll get him to help me purchase some food for the winter," mumbled Fangzheng.
"A friendly reminder. Money that has been tainted with the wishes of all living beings cannot be used to purchase mortal items. It's called fate when someone gives it to you. You can't buy it yourself! "
"F * * k you. How am I supposed to live like this?" Fangzheng cursed inwardly, but he exclaimed, "Are you kidding me? It's winter. It's going to be three to four months! I only have two bags of rice. Do you want me to freeze to death? "
