Fangzheng subconsciously walked over with Lone Wolf. As he walked, he took in the sights. At that moment, two boys walked past him. Fangzheng vaguely heard one of them say, "The car accident a few days ago was too terrifying. I heard that a student from our school was crippled."
"That's right. If not for a few drivers passing by and sending him to the hospital, he would probably be in a worse state."
…
When Fangzheng heard that, he pressed his palms together and gave a Buddhist proclamation. "Amitabha. I hope such things will not happen again in the future."
While Fangzheng was distracted, he realized that something was missing beside him. When he turned his head, Lone Wolf was gone!
"Where did that stupid dog run off to?" Fangzheng turned anxious. Lone Wolf had never left the mountain and could be said to be a bumpkin and a fool. However, the fellow had immense strength and was terrifyingly fast when he ran. If he were to act recklessly, the damage he could cause would only be slightly less than Red Boy's. Fangzheng turned anxious as he looked around, but …
He saw an ice cream machine at the entrance of a small shop. An elderly woman sat beside it while three students stood in a row as though they were queuing up to buy ice cream. Strangely enough, there were so many food stalls, but only the elderly woman's ice cream stall had a queue. The rest were crowding around it like a swarm of bees.
As for Lone Wolf, he stood behind the three students. He wagged his tail and opened his mouth, drooling. Clearly, he was craving it again!
The students in front paid for the ice cream and left. Soon, it was Lone Wolf's turn. Lone Wolf stuck out his tongue and licked his lips as he looked at the granny with watery eyes.
Fangzheng facepalmed when he saw this. He finally understood what was going on. The idiot thought that he could get ice cream just by lining up. He was just trying to get some free food! Fangzheng hurriedly walked over and prepared to pull Lone Wolf away. What a joke. If she really gave it to him, Fangzheng had no money to pay! That would be too shameful!
However, before Fangzheng reached the place, the granny reached out her hand and patted Lone Wolf. Then, she handed him an ice cream.
Lone Wolf did not stand on ceremony. He took a bite and wagged his tail in delight. He was having a great time eating it!
Fangzheng was rendered speechless as he hurriedly ran over and rapped Lone Wolf on the head. "You idiot, you have to pay for it. Yet, you are asking for it. Do you have money? "
Lone Wolf naturally knew about the existence of money, but he didn't know what it was for. In any case, he had never seen Fangzheng use the money for anything other than throwing it on the bed … He had always been unable to figure out the use of those colorful and slightly dirty pieces of paper. Now that Fangzheng said that, he seemed to understand a little.
However, Lone Wolf was also a cunning person. He knew that if he caused trouble, he would most likely lose the ice cream. Thus, he opened his mouth wide and ate the entire ice cream! Then, Lone Wolf realized that although this thing was delicious, it was really cold! After swallowing such a big ice cream in one gulp, he felt unwell! He felt a chill in his stomach and a wave of cold air rising. His head was hurting! His tongue was already numb from the cold … His eyes were rolling back as he swayed unsteadily on the spot …
When Fangzheng saw this, he lamented the lack of teaching. He really wished to slap the disappointing fellow to death.
After eating it, Fangzheng could no longer dig it out. All he could do was come in front of the granny and press his palms together. "Amitabha. Patron, how much is this ice cream?"
However, the granny chuckled. "He queued up based on his own abilities. How can I ask for money?"
Fangzheng was taken aback before he laughed. He pressed his palms together. "Amitabha. Thank you, Patron." However, he thought to himself, "As expected of an elder from the city. Look at her standards. She's full of jokes the moment she opens her mouth … I'm impressed!"
At that moment, Fangzheng saw a tiny sign beside the granny. On it was written: "Queue up to buy or it won't be sold!"
Fangzheng was rendered speechless. She was truly an elder with character.
The granny said with a smile, "Venerable One, are you really a monk?"
Fangzheng smiled. "Yes."
"From the looks of it, your bearing is different from those rascals. Come, have some ice cream. This is my gift to you. "After the granny said that, she gave an ice cream to Fangzheng.
Fangzheng did not stand on ceremony as he generously received it. "Thank you, Patron."
"You're welcome. I haven't seen such a young monk in a long time," said the granny.
Just as Fangzheng was about to say something, he realized that Lone Wolf had run off again. This time, the fellow was even worse. He had run to a stall that sold boxed lunches to queue up.
Fangzheng looked at Lone Wolf before looking at the granny. She smiled. "Go on. This dog is rather interesting."
Fangzheng smiled helplessly and bade the elder farewell. He hurriedly ran over and grabbed Lone Wolf's tail before dragging him away.
Lone Wolf was indignant as he shouted, "Master, what are you doing?"
"What am I doing? What are you doing? "Fangzheng was a little infuriated. Couldn't this fellow give him some peace of mind?
"It's almost noon. I'll queue up to get something to eat. Why don't we starve? "Lone Wolf shouted in a justified manner.
Fangzheng rolled his eyes in a speechless manner. "Idiot, didn't I tell you? This needs to be bought with money! "
"I queued up based on my own abilities. Why should I pay?" returned Lone Wolf.
Fangzheng: "…"
After half an hour of preaching, Lone Wolf finally understood the use and importance of money. Then, he looked up at Fangzheng and asked, "Master, after saying so much, do we have money?"
Fangzheng looked up into the sky in a speechless manner. He patted Lone Wolf on the head and said, "If we don't mention money, you will still be my disciple."
"What if I mention it?" Lone Wolf asked, unwilling to give up.
"In the future, you will be in charge of sweeping the yard," said Fangzheng in all seriousness.
Lone Wolf immediately said, "Master, it's best I don't mention it. But … What are we having for lunch? "
Growl …
Fangzheng's stomach growled as well. Fangzheng continued, "If we don't mention food, you will still be my disciple."
"If … Forget it. There's no if. Master, then … Are we … just going to do nothing? " Lone Wolf looked at the various tiny restaurants on both sides of the street. When he saw the people sitting at the tables eating heartily, he could not help but gulp a few mouthfuls of saliva.
Fangzheng did not know how to answer. Back when he left the mountain, problems were quickly resolved. Even when he went to Daili Village, he was warmly received by the village chief. He never had to worry about food. But now …
By the side of the road, the man and wolf sat there in a daze.
After a long while, Lone Wolf sprawled on the ground and said, "Master, I'm hungry."
"It's fine. You are a wolf," said Fangzheng.
"Even a wolf will be hungry," cried Lone Wolf.
Fangzheng said in all seriousness, "The books say that wolves are fine even if they don't eat for a week. You are already so fat. Take the opportunity to lose weight. "
Lone Wolf: "…"
