"The weather is pretty good today. I was drinking tea at home and didn't come out for a stroll."
"I didn't take a stroll either. I didn't see the police coming either."
"I heard there was a terrible traffic jam."
"I have a stomachache today. I'm resting at home …"
…
Everyone chimed in as Red Boy used a Dharma spell to transmit his voice over. It left Bai Wenshui, Ghosthead, Mole, and company feeling a chill in their hearts. Seeing that the last person was about to leave, the few of them fell into complete despair.
"Don't go! We know our wrongs! "
"Save me!"
"I really know my wrongs!" Daguang wailed loudly.
"Save me! Save me!" Big Ghost and Little Ghost wailed as well.
…
"Amitabha." Fangzheng gave a Buddhist proclamation as he waved his hand. Red Boy jumped onto the boat and paddled it away. From the beginning to the end, the people on the bank did not see Fangzheng.
"Master, don't go!"
"Master, spare me!"
"Save me! Save me! I'm out of energy. Save … Gulp … "
With Fangzheng gone, the Dharma spell dissipated. However, the few of them had been struggling the entire night and were already out of energy. All of them cried and struggled.
On the distant boat, Squirrel asked, "Master, we don't care about those people. What if they really swim ashore? "
Fangzheng shook his head. "Fate is determined by the heavens. Their fates are as such. It doesn't matter if This Penniless Monk leaves or not." At the same time, Fangzheng closed his Heavenly Eye.
Bai Wenshui and company were pretty good swimmers. Seeing Fangzheng leave, despite shouting for help and being out of strength, they continued swimming with all their might to reach the shore out of their desire to live. But at that moment, two people appeared on the shore!
Bai Wenshui, Ghosthead, Mole, and company immediately saw hope. Just as they were about to shout for help, they felt a chill run down their spines when the two looked up!
"It's them! They are back to claim their lives! "Mole cried out in horror.
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts. They had lost all their strength. A wave came crashing over, and a few of them instantly sank into the river. Some of them were still struggling, but after struggling for a while, they stopped moving.
The two people who had come were none other than Lin Zhixian, who had promised Fangzheng not to return for three days, and the youth who had been taken away by Red Boy. With the three days up, the two naturally returned. None of them wished to be treated as dead … Therefore, they had not deliberately appeared, but sometimes, it was fate!
The duo did not see Bai Wenshui and company. When they heard someone shout, they looked into the water and saw that it was calm and peaceful. The river surged as though nothing had happened.
Then, the two left …
Not long after, a piece of paper entered the two rivers, followed by a few boats. A brand-new, state-organized voluntary corpse fishing team was established. Square-faced was the first to sign up. More than a dozen people joined the Corpse Fishing Team. The Corpse Fishing Team did not have fixed working hours. Whoever was free could come over. At the same time, the country would provide subsidies. Every time a Corpse Fisherman worked, they would receive a minimum subsidy. In the words of the government, "We can't let good people work for nothing. Good people deserve good things!"
Instantly, it garnered the praise of everyone in the city.
"Master, where are we going now?" Red Boy asked out of curiosity as they walked on the streets of the two rivers.
Fangzheng stretched his back. "We agreed to come out for a stroll. Wouldn't it be too boring if we were to return just like that? Let's take a stroll … "
"Master!" Red Boy suddenly exclaimed.
Fangzheng asked, "Why?"
"You have finally been enlightened," Red Boy said in all seriousness.
Dong!
Fangzheng raised his hand and struck him. Red Boy rubbed his head and smiled foolishly.
The trio was in no rush to return to One Finger Monastery. After all, the Formless Door's mission had been completed. They could open it at any time to return to One Finger Monastery. The trio strolled the streets, experiencing the life of a city dweller.
"Ding! You have done well in punishing evil and promoting good. You have gained public virtue. Do you want a draw? "asked the System.
Fangzheng thought for a moment and shook his head. "Let's talk about it when we get back. Let's save it for now."
"Up to you." After the System said that, it vanished.
Life in the city was different from life on the mountain. Although there was excitement on the mountain, it was inevitable that it would be a little monotonous after staying there for too long. Cities were different. In this era of rapid economic development, cities changed almost every day. Those who stayed there for a long time might not feel anything, but after leaving for a period of time, one would realize that it was completely different. The city was changing every day. The people in the city were also changing. It was as though change was the eternal theme of a city. Everything here left Squirrel dazzled. However, what truly dazzled Squirrel was the delicacies that emitted all sorts of scents …
"Master." Squirrel rubbed his belly and looked pitifully at Fangzheng.
"Do you want to go to the bathroom again?"
Squirrel: "…"
Fangzheng looked at the bitter look on the little guy's face and immediately laughed. He bought a piece of pastry and broke it into two. He gave half to Squirrel and the other half to Red Boy. The two animals were instantly overjoyed.
Just as the few of them were walking on the streets, a series of sobbing attracted Fangzheng's attention. He saw an elder sitting by the side of the road, staring intently at the antique phone in her hand. Tears streamed down her cheeks as she let out choking sounds from time to time.
Fangzheng, Red Boy, and Squirrel exchanged looks and saw the pity in each other's eyes.
Fangzheng walked forward and pressed his palms together. "Amitabha. Patron, is there anything This Penniless Monk can help you with?"
The elder slowly looked up and saw a fair-skinned monk standing in front of her. She hurriedly wiped her tears and shook her head guiltily. "It's nothing. It's nothing …"
With that said, the elder struggled to stand up. It was unknown if it was because she had been sitting for too long, but her body was wobbling. Fangzheng hurriedly helped her up. After the elder got up, she nodded at Fangzheng and thanked him. With her walking stick, she left as fast as she could.
"Master, why do I feel like there's a story behind her?" asked Red Boy.
Squirrel said, "She looks flustered. It's as though she has done something wrong. Junior Brother Jingzhen is like this every time he steals my pine nuts. "
Fangzheng frowned slightly and shook his head. "She's already so old, yet it's difficult for her to even walk. I don't believe that she has done something bad. However, there should be a story behind her … "
Fangzheng activated his Heavenly Eye and saw nothing amiss with the elder. When he activated his Wisdom Eye, the elder's body had an additional layer of golden light. There was an arrow hanging above her head, and it was pointing at Fangzheng!
Fangzheng was taken aback as he moved left and right. The arrow followed him, which meant that he was the elder's benefactor!
He rubbed his nose. This was the first time Fangzheng had encountered such a situation.
"Master, what are you thinking about?" asked Red Boy.
"Nothing. However, this elder is fated with This Penniless Monk. Let's go take a look."
