With a clap of thunder, the roof cracked open as a bolt of lightning struck right in front of Fangzheng!
The group of people below scrambled away, rolling and crawling to escape.
Xu Yin rolled on the ground and hid to the side with his face covered in dirt.
As for Fangzheng, he took a step forward and stood in front of Chang Xiaohong. He was confident that the lightning would not injure her if it struck down. However, if the roof was blown up, it was still possible for the falling debris to hit someone. In particular, Chang Xiaohong was carrying a child in her arms. What if she was frightened?
Fangzheng directly led the child into a dream and blocked out the thunder.
As for the others, they could crawl if they liked, it was quite a sight to behold …
This explosion attracted everyone's attention. Even the leaders who usually did not come out ran out to ask about the situation.
Xu Yin said with a sobbing tone, "I don't know. All of a sudden, a bolt of lightning fell. It was too fucking scary." With that said, Xu Yin looked up into the sky. The sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly. There wasn't even a cloud! Then where did the lightning come from? Immediately, he felt a chill run down his spine and his heart was as cold as ice. Recalling how the monk, Fangzheng, had immediately been struck by lightning when he praised him, could it be that Buddha couldn't stand the sight of him snatching believers from him and was warning him?
"There's nothing strange about thunder on a sunny day. Hurry up and fix the roof. Let's call it a day." The leader's face was also a bit ugly. As the saying goes, if you don't do something guilty, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. If you do something guilty, you will be suspicious of everything. She was also a little scared, so she quickly went back to the house.
This explosion caused the conclusion of the meeting to be in shambles. Song Keling went out to get a master to fix the house, while Xu Yin checked on everyone's injuries. Seeing that no one was injured, he heaved a sigh of relief and mumbled, "Thankfully, no one was injured. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to treat them. It would be too troublesome to send them to the hospital, and we would probably have to abandon them."
A cold glint flashed in Fangzheng's eyes when he heard that. If the ordinary members here had any conscience, Xu Yin's conscience had been completely eaten by a dog.
While Xu Yin was busy, Fangzheng came to Ma Zhi's side while whistling.
Ma Zhi looked over warily. When he realized that it was a rookie like Fangzheng, his expression turned for the better. He was also less wary.
Fangzheng said, "Patron Ma, what do you think of this matter?"
"If you commit too many sins, the heavens will punish you," Ma Zhi muttered.
Fangzheng was taken aback before he smiled. "I'm not asking you about the lightning. I'm asking you what you think of the Star Ocean."
Ma Zhi immediately fell silent and didn't say anything.
Fangzheng said, "You haven't paid?"
Ma Zhi smiled bitterly, "Where would I get the money to give them? If I had money, I wouldn't come out. "
"I see. You still owe them money?" asked Fangzheng.
"Yes, he owes food expenses," Ma Zhi said.
Fangzheng said, "I've also paid a month's worth of food expenses. How much do you owe them? "
"A few thousand." Ma Zhi sighed.
Fangzheng said, "Is that so? This Penniless Monk will help you repay the money. How about that?"
"Ah … ah?" Ma Zhi replied casually before he jolted to his senses. He looked at Fangzheng in astonishment, "You want to help me return the money? But … I don't have the money to pay you back. If you lend it to me, I'll basically use it to beat … uh, beat that thing. "
Fangzheng laughed out loud. "It's just a little bit of money. This Penniless Monk can still afford it. However, This Penniless Monk wants to ask you a few questions. You have to answer This Penniless Monk honestly. "
Ma Zhi fell silent before saying, "Help me return the money first. As long as you return the money, I'll tell you anything you ask."
Fangzheng said, "No problem." With that said, Fangzheng prepared to return to his room.
Ma Zhi looked at Fangzheng's back and suddenly shouted, "Venerable One, if you can leave, leave quickly. This isn't paradise. This is hell! "
Fangzheng turned his head and smiled at Ma Zhi. "Amitabha. If I don't enter hell, who will? Since it's hell, This Penniless Monk was right to come. "
With that said, Fangzheng entered his room.
Ma Zhi was stunned in his spot before his eyes lit up. He seemed to see a glimmer of hope! However, what could a monk do? Could he move to the Star Ocean? He probably wouldn't even be able to leave this house, right? Although he had such thoughts, Ma Zhi's heart burned with a glimmer of hope. He looked up into the sky and yearned for the outside world. He wanted to return home!
Noon arrived. Having learned his lesson from what happened in the morning, Xu Yin was a little worried.
Xu Yin called Song Keling to the side and said, "Don't make mantou for lunch. That monk has a huge appetite!"
"I know. I'm cooking a huge pot of congee this time! I want to see how he eats it! If it's not enough, just add some water. If he wants to drink water, I'll make sure he has enough! "Song Keling was rather astute as she chuckled.
Xu Yin laughed as well. The congee they were talking about was ten thousand grains of rice and a huge pot of water. Many people made it this way, so they could drink as much as they wanted. After all, all they had to do was add water. Xu Yin was certain that Fangzheng would not cause any trouble this time!
Xu Yin returned to his room in delight to find Fangzheng to discuss the payment. But the moment he entered, he did not see Fangzheng. He went to the other rooms, but there was still no one! Xu Yin turned anxious as he grabbed someone and asked, "Where's Fangzheng?"
The person was somewhat dumbfounded. You have been following Fangzheng the entire time, but you don't even know where he went. How would I know?
Before the person could say a word, he heard Song Keling's exclamation from the kitchen. "What are you doing?"
For some reason, whenever something abnormal happened, the first thing that came to his mind was the bald monk! Xu Yin rushed into the kitchen and saw Fangzheng standing beside the pot of congee. In his hand was an empty bag of ten kilograms of rice as he looked at him innocently.
By the side, Song Keling was nearly in tears. She pointed at the pot with reddened eyes.
Xu Yin went over to take a look at the pot and was instantly enraged! He saw that the pot was filled with a bag of rice!
"What are you doing!?" Xu Yin was infuriated as he yelled.
Fangzheng shrugged and said, "Nothing much. I just had nothing to do. I was thinking that since I can't be a freeloader, I had to do something. I saw that there was no one in the kitchen, but there was a fire burning. There was only water in the pot and no rice, so all I did was add some rice. I also cook on the mountain. There are so many of us, so this bag of rice should be enough. Why? Don't worry. Although this bit of rice isn't much, it should be enough to fill everyone's stomachs. "
"You …" When Xu Yin heard Fangzheng's words, he looked at the innocent-looking and adorable Fangzheng. He was at a loss for words! He could scold him since he was helping out of goodwill. According to Fangzheng, it did seem reasonable!
But the problem was that this was a multi-level marketing operation. How could it be the same as outside? If they were to eat like this for every meal, wouldn't they end up starving if no one joined them for a long time?
Song Keling yelled, "Who said there wasn't any rice? I clearly did. Why are you causing trouble? "
