Fangzheng came to the meditation room that Hong Xiang had arranged for him. At that moment, Monkey could no longer hold it in. "Abbot, what are you talking about? That young monk was mumbling a bunch of stuff. I don't understand either. "
"If you don't understand, watch. If you don't understand, think."
Monkey wore a dumbfounded look. "What if I don't understand?"
"Then what's the point of keeping you?" returned Fangzheng with a question.
Monkey was stunned.
Fangzheng laughed out loud when he saw Monkey's dumbfounded look. "Monkey, you sure are curious. However, what I said was not a joke. If you don't understand, watch and think more. If you really can't understand, remember more. If you encounter such a thing in the future, you will know what to do. In addition, This Penniless Monk made you wear monk's clothes. You have to act like a monk. Don't scratch your ass for no reason. It's inelegant. "
"Oh, I understand." Monkey subconsciously wanted to scratch his ass but he held back midway.
Fangzheng nodded in satisfaction. "Alright, get some rest. After having a vegetarian meal tonight, we will be busy tomorrow."
Monkey nodded again and mimicked Fangzheng. He sat cross-legged on the bed and looked like a meditating old monk.
The day passed quickly. The next day, at daybreak, it was already bustling outside. The monks got up and began setting up the temple hall. As the doors opened, visitors swarmed in. Instantly, incense offerings surged into the sky. It was extremely lively.
Fangzheng was envious when he saw this scene. When would One Finger Monastery have such a scene? It would truly rise.
At that moment, Fangzheng saw the Hong brothers again. Fangzheng could not help but recall the System's words. Good to look at? What was considered good to look at?
With this in mind, Fangzheng suddenly recalled something. He said with a wry smile, "I'm really stupid! Heavenly Eye, open! "
Fangzheng opened his Heavenly Eye and looked at the duo. He was once again dumbfounded. Fangzheng saw a blurry image. He could not see anything clearly. It was as though several images were mixed together. He could not distinguish anything.
"System, is there something wrong with my Heavenly Eye? Why do I feel like I'm seeing double? Or is it jammed? "Fangzheng was surprised.
"The future is filled with variables. Some have few variables, while others have many. The further the matter, the more variables there are. The more unstable a person's karma and merit was, the more variables there were. Once there are too many variables, the Heavenly Eye won't be able to see only one result. There will be many results, and then these results will be played together. What you will see is this kind of phantom image chaos, "the system said.
Fangzheng said, "Then how do we crack it? Don't tell me I'm just going to see the future of this effect? "
"Raising the Heavenly Eye's level is the simplest method, but to a poor monk like you, it's also the most difficult." The System prodded at Fangzheng's wound in all seriousness as it sprinkled salt on it.
Fangzheng rolled his eyes bitterly and asked, "Is there anything simpler?"
"Think about it yourself." After saying that, the system fell silent again.
Fangzheng was rendered speechless. The service was just too terrible. If not for the fact that there was no place for him to lodge a complaint, he would definitely have lodged a complaint!
Since the Heavenly Eye didn't work, he would open his All-Seeing Eye! With this in mind, Fangzheng immediately took action!
The moment he activated his Wisdom Eye, Fangzheng immediately smiled! Fangzheng saw a golden Merit Lotus Flower appear above the duo's heads. Although the lotus flower wasn't big and its projection was very faint, it was indeed a lotus flower. To be precise, it was a lotus flower bud! Just as Fangzheng looked over, the lotus flower bloomed. However, only a single petal had bloomed. The petal pointed at a middle-aged man who was quite a distance away from the duo in Hongyan Monastery. The man didn't look impressive, and he was dressed very casually. He had a bag slung over his shoulder as he sat there in a composed manner. It was as though he was waiting for everyone to finish paying their respects before paying their respects to Buddha. He didn't look anxious at all.
As the duo moved, the lotus flower spun as well. The bloomed petal was constantly pointed at the man. At the same time, Fangzheng saw negative karma condense beneath the lotus flower like a flame. However, the flame's embers were pointing in a different direction. Furthermore, it was erratic as it moved here and there. Clearly, it did not know what it was pointing at. It felt like it was there to confuse Fangzheng's listening. Fangzheng thought carefully and understood the reason behind it.
Just as the System had previously said, the secular world was a huge dye vat. It was hell. The people here would more or less be tainted with negative karma. Good people also had negative karma, but it was very small and almost invisible. It was unlikely that it would cause good people to have bad luck. However, it could affect people like Fangzheng who wanted to help good people have good luck. Therefore, it would create many possibilities, but the chances of it happening were extremely low.
It would confuse the public, but under the Wisdom Eye, this little trick appeared laughable.
As for the lotus flower, it was likely pointing in the direction of good luck. The higher the merit, the more realistic the lotus flower was. The more resplendent the golden light and the more petals it bloomed, the better the good luck it pointed at! Then, when Fangzheng gave pointers, the person would clearly receive more benefits!
With this in mind, Fangzheng smiled. He walked towards the duo. Just as Monkey was about to follow, Fangzheng shook his head and said, "Monkey, your mission today is to walk among the crowd and interact more with humans. Don't think of yourself as a monkey. Think of yourself as a human and experience what it feels like to be a human. You are a monk of One Finger Monastery. Your every action does not represent you but One Finger Monastery. Do you understand? "
Monkey scratched his head in thought and pressed his palms together. "This Penniless Monk understands."
Fangzheng smiled in satisfaction. Then he strode towards the Hong brothers.
The two brothers were lining up to offer incense. Hong Qianjie was looking around blindly when he suddenly saw Fangzheng walking towards him. He shuddered as he tugged at Hong Qianxi, "Brother, Brother Water Ghost is here."
Hong Qianxi looked at Fangzheng and then at the shadow. He immediately heaved a sigh of relief. "It's not a ghost. It's a human. He has a shadow."
Hong Qianjie heaved a sigh of relief and said with a wry smile, "I feel like the two of us are being overly suspicious."
Just as Hong Qianxi was about to say something, the monk had already arrived in front of them. He pressed his palms together and gave a Buddhist proclamation. "Amitabha. Patrons, greetings."
"Mage, what can I do for you?" Hong Qianxi looked warily at Fangzheng. He found it odd that the monk had specifically sought the two of them out of so many people. More importantly, the monks of Hongyan Temple all wore gray robes, but the monk before him was dressed in white. No matter how he looked at it, he seemed different and unreliable. But when they looked at Fangzheng's face, which was warm and sunny, his eyes as clear as a pool, they immediately relaxed their wariness.
Fangzheng said with a smile, "Patrons, have you saved anyone recently?"
