Red Boy asked perplexed, "What are you doing? Why are you trembling without a fight? "
"What do you know? I'm relaxing! It's so that I can control my strength. Otherwise, I might end up killing your master with one punch. " Liu Beijun casually bragged. Bragging could scare his opponent and also hypnotize himself. It was the best tactic before a battle.
Fangzheng said, "I see. Then This Penniless Monk will also relax."
Therefore, Fangzheng stomped his feet.
Dong! Dong!
The ground quaked as Fangzheng stomped his feet. Although it was not an earthquake, the tremors were very obvious to Liu Beijun, especially when he stomped on the ground. A huge footprint was left, and the soles were clearly visible!
Liu Beijun followed and attempted to stomp his feet, but it did not budge at all!
At that moment, Fangzheng struck out twice through the air. Pa! Pa! Pa! The sound of air exploding sounded like it came from a wuxia movie!
Fangzheng did not think too much about it. He was purely relaxing and did not use his full strength. After two strikes, he felt that it was useless. Therefore he said, "Patron, can we begin?"
But when Fangzheng looked up, there was nothing in front of him!
"Where is he?" Fangzheng was stunned as he looked at Red Boy with a questioning gaze.
Red Boy pointed at the door. At that moment, there was the sound of someone sweeping the ground.
Fangzheng was rendered completely speechless. What happened to the saying that a newborn calf was not afraid of a tiger? Indeed, fairy tales were all lies. Sigh …
Soon, it was noon. Monkey had prepared lunch, and Fangzheng led his disciples to their seats to eat. Liu Beijun came over when he caught a whiff of the Crystal Rice's fragrance. He had been thinking of running all this while, so he had not carefully observed the monastery. Now, he was finally behaving himself, and he could finally observe the details of the monastery in front of him. And the first thing he noticed was the tables and chairs. They were all made of emerald-green Frost Bamboo. The workmanship was exquisite, and every table and chair was extremely beautiful. Under the sunlight's illumination, they suffused a mysterious green color. It was extremely beautiful!
Although Liu Beijun was only a child, he was no fool. He could tell at a glance that the tables and chairs were very valuable. Furthermore, One Finger Village was most famous for its Frost Bamboo carvings. But compared to the carvings at the foot of the mountain, this was just too beautiful! He did not even know how to describe it. Thinking about the price of the sculptures at the foot of the mountain, and then looking at the ones here, he knew that the price of any table or chair here was not cheap.
He looked down at the broom in his hand. It appeared to be made of Frost Bamboo. He suddenly realized that he had fallen into a rich man's lair …
However, what surprised Liu Beijun the most was that the animals in the monastery were as intelligent as fairies! Monkey sat there eating exactly like a human. Even the squirrel sat there obediently, eating from a bowl made of bamboo …
There was no need to mention Red Boy. The only thing that made him feel slightly comfortable was the big white wolf. This fellow did not eat on the table. Instead, he ate on the ground with his butt up. However, his food bowl, a real bowl, was too big!
However, after the surprise, his stomach growled. He had been fighting with his father, Liu Hongyun, in the morning. He didn't eat breakfast and swept the leaves for the whole morning. Now, he was really hungry. Moreover, he discovered that the rice on the mountain was different from what he usually ate. Every grain of rice was fuller, bigger, and crystal clear. It was as if he was hugging nectar. The smell was fragrant but not greasy. The more he smelled it, the more his appetite increased. He really wanted to eat it …
At that moment, Fangzheng looked up. "Have you swept the yard?"
Liu Beijun immediately said, "Just a little more! Can I eat it after sweeping it? "
Fangzheng nodded. "Of course, but you have to be quick. If you are slow, there will be no more food." Although Fangzheng had gotten Monkey to cook an extra portion, the mountain was like a bottomless pit with huge appetites. If these bad guys really wanted to eat as much as they could, finishing Liu Beijun's portion would be a piece of cake.
Liu Beijun immediately turned anxious when he heard that. He hurriedly ran to the front yard and quickly swept the few leaves that had fallen. However, he did not realize that the instant he ran, Lone Wolf, Red Boy, and Monkey had clearly sped up the speed at which they ate. Even Squirrel had stuffed two rice balls into his mouth. Before he could swallow them, he carried his bowl and rushed over to get more rice.
Liu Beijun was very fast. After sweeping the area and confirming that no more leaves had fallen, he rushed back to the backyard. Before he could say a word, he saw a big white wolf lying on the ground. Its stomach was round, and its tongue was hanging out of its mouth. Its limbs were facing the sky, and it looked like it was stuffed to death.
On the table was Squirrel, who resembled a rubber ball, sitting motionless.
By the side of the table, the child was leaning back in his chair, rubbing his stomach.
The only one that looked normal was Monkey. He was sitting like a bell, and his face was expressionless like an ancient well. He looked like an accomplished monk.
Upon seeing this, Liu Beijun had an ominous feeling. He rushed to the kitchen, but he did not see a particular monk behind him finishing his last mouthful of rice.
"Where's the rice? Where's the rice? Where's the rice?! " Liu Beijun's angry roar sounded from the kitchen. Simultaneously, there was the sound of a spoon scraping against a pot.
When Monkey heard that, he hurriedly got up and left. Only then did he realize that the fellow had grabbed two rice balls in his hands and hidden them under his monk robes. Unfortunately, Liu Beijun did not see it.
As for Lone Wolf, Squirrel, and Red Boy, they were like dead dogs just moments ago. But when they heard that something was amiss, they quickly returned home as though nothing had happened.
At that moment, Liu Beijun rushed out and was about to shout angrily.
However, Fangzheng stood up and smiled at him. "This monastery's rule is that the last to finish eating will do the dishes. You are the last, so remember to wash the dishes after you finish eating."
With that said, Fangzheng left.
Liu Beijun stood in his spot and looked at the empty bowls on the table that looked as though they had been licked by a dog. As the wind blew, the grievance and desolation in his heart rose. He burst into tears.
Fangzheng sat in his meditation room and heard Liu Beijun's cries. His heart softened, but he ultimately held it in. Fangzheng knew very well that Liu Beijun was so willful because his family had spoiled him too much. He believed that everyone in the world would spoil him, allowing him to act on his emotions no matter where he went. That way, he would be treated well by others for no reason. Fangzheng wanted to make him understand that no one in the world would be good to him for no reason. Even a monk who was kind to others would not be a goody two shoes. There had been too many instances of kindness and hatred. It was not easy to be a good person.
