At the same time, in a Porsche store in Black Mountain City, a woman nearly smashed her phone in anger. She said angrily, "This darn monk actually fooled me!"
Although Xiaorong was cursing, she knew that she had been too anxious this time. Every time she interrupted the monk at a critical moment, she would end up making a huge blunder! However, she had a nagging feeling that she had been scammed by the bastard monk!
"No, I can't take this lying down. I have to find out where this fellow is. Hmph … Isn't that fifty thousand? He even asked about the performance. He wants to test a Porsche Angel that costs more than ten million? Fine, just you wait! I'll sell you a plane next time. Let's see if you have any reason to reject me! " Xiaorong yelled inwardly. At the same time, Xiaorong wondered if she should make a trip to see how big this prank was!
At that moment, Fangzheng had already arrived in front of the Crystal Rice paddy. He sat beneath the Frost Bamboo's mother bamboo. This time, he did not bring the wooden fish. He calmly chanted the scriptures. As the scriptures sounded, the mother bamboo gently swayed with the wind as though it had understood something. At the same time, the Crystal Rice sprouts in the Crystal Rice paddy finally surfaced. They were green and looked especially beautiful …
Deep into the night, Fangzheng's cell phone suddenly rang as he slept.
Fangzheng picked it up helplessly. He did not look at the number as his mind was a little muddled. He heard a child's voice on the other end. "Hey! Is that Daddy? "
Fangzheng was instantly rendered speechless as he replied, "Hehe, This Penniless Monk really isn't your father …"
"Ah … Oh, sorry." The child's voice sounded a little disappointed before he hung up.
Upon hearing the child's disappointed voice, Fangzheng's pajamas suddenly disappeared. He lay in bed, feeling a little sour. He had never had parents since he was young. Although he had never lacked love, whose love could replace a real parent's? A life of luxury couldn't compare to the company of parents. This was probably what all children yearned for …
"Should I agree to it? Perhaps he will be very happy. But I don't even know his name. Wouldn't it be very awkward if I were to be exposed? "Fangzheng shook his head and flipped his body before falling asleep again in a daze.
The next morning, Fangzheng's phone rang again while he was eating. This time, Fangzheng was prepared. He first looked at the number and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that it wasn't the child. The first call was from Jing Yan …
Just as Fangzheng was about to pick up the call, he realized that the other party had hung up. After some thought, Fangzheng dialed back. However, the other party did not receive a beeping sound, but a ringtone. It was a song that sounded deep and melancholic. Fangzheng's heart palpitated when he heard two lines. Instantly, Liu Fangfang's figure appeared in his mind …
"White snow drifts in the quiet village. Pigeons fly in the hazy sky. The two names are carved on the birch tree …"
Fangzheng listened quietly and recalled. He savored the charm and listened to the story. At that moment, the singing stopped. A languid voice sounded. "Hey, Master. You're so early …"
Fangzheng said, "Amitabha. Patron, you were the one who called This Penniless Monk first, right?"
"Ah? Really? I just turned off the alarm clock, and I might have accidentally touched it. I'm sorry … "Jing Yan's voice was much sober now.
Fangzheng was rendered speechless. He never expected that to happen. However, Fangzheng still asked out of curiosity, "Patron, what's the ringtone of your cell phone? This Penniless Monk likes it very much. "
"'White Birch Forest'. I accidentally found it on the Internet. This song matches Granny Liu Fangfang very well. Although there are some differences, I like it. I like the flavor," said Jing Yan.
Fangzheng said, "It's indeed very sentimental and charming. By the way, how's Patron Liu? And the dock … "
"Hehe, Master, don't worry. The dock won't be demolished. In the past, it was demolished because the dock was dirty and messy. If the dock isn't moved, the other places wouldn't be moved either. But now, there's no such problem. The government plans on turning it into a martyr's memorial. In the future, it will be a place where we can remember the martyrs together. Furthermore, the city is planning on erecting an Unknown Martyr's Monument there. In the future, during Tomb-Sweeping Day, everyone will go there to sweep the graves. This is no longer a place where Granny Liu awaits the return of the martyrs alone, but a place where all of us await.
Now, the government is sending people to restore the old dock to its original state and reinforce it. Furthermore, there will be people specially cleaning the old dock. Furthermore, after this matter, the local citizens are very cooperative. They have come out to clean up the streets. Now, not only is it not dirty, it's very clean. It's just that the buildings are a little old, but that's good too. There's still a hint of the past.
Auntie Liu has returned to her hometown. Now, she's living a good life. The people in the village take good care of her. Her family has also acknowledged her once again. Her days are not bad, "said Jing Yan.
Fangzheng was extremely astonished. Although he hoped that the government could preserve the dock that had sent away the martyrs before they returned, he did not have much hope. After all, many things could not be changed because of a person's will. However, he never expected that the government seemed to place more importance on this matter than he imagined.
Upon hearing the good news, Fangzheng gave a Buddhist proclamation. "Amitabha. Very truly."
The two chatted for a while before Jing Yan said, "Master, that's enough. There's still a piece of news to interview today. Time to get up. Bye."
Fangzheng did not ask further. He hung up and began eating.
Red Boy sat opposite him, but he had been listening attentively. Seeing that Fangzheng was done, he swallowed the last mouthful of rice and grinned. He scoffed. "Master, chatting with a female patron? You seem to be having quite a good time. "
Fangzheng pricked up his brows when he heard Red Boy's eccentric tone. He said earnestly, "Jingxin, are you done eating? If you are, go fetch some water. "
Red Boy glared at Fangzheng with an aggrieved look. Fangzheng slowly ate his meal in a composed manner, looking as though he could do whatever he wanted. Red Boy wrinkled his nose and thought to himself, "If not for the fact that I can't beat you, I'd definitely beat you to death!"
Then, Red Boy went to fetch water in a depressed manner.
After seeing Red Boy carrying water and seeing Red Boy coming down the mountain, the members of the construction team were a little used to it, but they still watched his arrival and departure with sympathetic eyes, which made Red Boy uncomfortable. However, he was arrogant and could not be bothered to speak to mortals.
After Fangzheng finished his meal, he came to the temple hall and switched off his cell phone. Only then did he walk into the temple hall and strike the wooden fish as he recited the scriptures.
In the yard, the bodhi tree grew lusher as its crown grew larger. It swayed with the wind as its leaves fluttered. Under the tree, a monkey wearing a monk's robe was leisurely sweeping the fallen leaves. On the tree, a squirrel was diligently sending pine nuts into his private villa. The whole world seemed to be immersed in a kind of tranquility and peace.
