With this in mind, Lin Tai smiled. "Since we are here, let's head up and take a look at Abbot Fangzheng's monastery. It's not a bad idea."
Li He, who originally imagined that Lin Tai was in a rush to leave the mountain and wanted to retort Cui Jiandong, immediately changed the words he was about to say. "Boss Lin is right. I'm also curious how luxurious Abbot Fangzheng's monastery is."
As soon as he said this, he couldn't help but laugh.
How could there be a luxurious monastery on this lousy mountain? Only a fool would believe that.
Fangzheng was rendered somewhat speechless. He was only speaking the truth. Why were these people so good at twisting the truth? When did he say that it was a luxurious monastery? As for what these people were thinking, Fangzheng knew very well. Since they were thick-skinned and weren't afraid of being smacked, Fangzheng was naturally willing to fulfill their wishes.
Xiao Chen swept his gaze across Liu Ying. Compared to the others, Liu Ying could be considered quite amicable. Furthermore, Xiao Chen was indebted to her in the past. It was only right for him to invite her up the mountain. Lin Xi, this girl, didn't seem to have much malice either.
Therefore, Fangzheng said, "Patron Liu, since you are here, let's go up and have a seat."
"Go up? You … "When Liu Ying heard this, she was instantly infuriated. What kind of situation was this? Why was this monk still stubbornly holding on? Would he be stupid? Lin Tai and the rest were clearly planning to mock him for their own amusement. He was silly, impetuous, loved to brag, and was obsessed with his reputation. These were the labels Liu Ying gave Fangzheng.
Before Liu Ying finished speaking, Lin Xi pulled Liu Ying and said, "Sister Liu Ying, let's go up and take a look. Anyway, we don't have anything to do down the mountain. Don't spoil everyone's fun. "
Lin Xi only wanted to watch the show. Moreover, she was indeed interested in this handsome monk, wishing to understand a bit more about him. For example, was the mountain really a run-down temple? What kind of run-down temple could nurture a monk to be so otherworldly? Curious, curious, curious!
The others tried to persuade her, but Fangzheng did not say a word. Unable to find a way out of this awkward situation, Liu Ying could only agree. However, his evaluation of Fangzheng went down a notch. "He doesn't know how to be flexible. He doesn't even take a step back. This kind of character is only suitable in this remote mountain. If he were to go down the mountain, he wouldn't even know if he was sold. "
The group followed Fangzheng up the mountain. Before long, they arrived at the end of the mountain path. Just as they were about to reach the mountaintop, they could see the scenery.
When Cui Jiandong saw this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He thought to himself, "Fangzheng, oh Fangzheng. Can you still act calm at this point in time? Humph … no matter how long you brag, there will be a time when you will be exposed. Now, let me expose your lies! "
With this in mind, Cui Jiandong suddenly jumped forward and roared with laughter. "Come, let me take a look at Abbot Fangzheng's luxurious monastery. Haha, where did you come from? That's right, it's this … uh … "
Cui Jiandong looked at the scene in front of him and was immediately stunned on the spot! There was only one thought in his mind: This … How is this possible!
Li He chuckled when he saw this. "Cui Jiandong, what's wrong? Have you been stunned by our Abbot Fangzheng's invincible and luxurious monastery? Or could it be that you couldn't see the monastery at all and could only see the ruins? Actually, it's not a big deal to see the ruins. After all, it's already broken enough. Back then … uh. "
Before Li He could finish his sentence, he looked in the direction of One Finger Monastery and was instantly stunned.
The duo's odd behavior aroused the curiosity of Lin Xi, Lin Tai, and Liu Ying. All of them looked over and were dumbfounded!
Far away, the sky was extremely blue. It was so transparent that it looked like the most beautiful lake in the world was hanging upside down in the sky. A red-walled monastery with green tiles sat in front of a lush green sea of bamboo. With the blue sky and green bamboo as a backdrop, the brick-red monastery appeared even more eye-catching!
Straight ahead, the bell and drum tower were like two tall and dignified guardians. The monastery might not be big, but it exuded a Zen vibe. The monastery wasn't tall, but it was extremely clean, refreshing, and otherworldly. At a glance, it was impossible to ignore its existence. Furthermore, the entire monastery emitted a Zen vibe. It made one feel tranquil at a glance, as though they could hear Buddha's murmuring.
Exquisite, Zen, Buddhist, tranquil, lofty, and relaxed … This was the feeling the monastery gave them!
Although the monastery didn't look luxurious on the outside, everyone had to admit that it was an extremely exquisite monastery in terms of Buddhist qualities!
Upon seeing such a monastery, Lin Tai, Li He, and Cui Jiandong immediately felt extremely embarrassed. They felt terrible as though they had eaten a dead fly.
Lin Xi covered her mouth and said in astonishment, "Brother, didn't you say that there are only a few crappy bricks here? Have you ever seen such beautiful bricks? "
Lin Tai's face blushed red as he glared at Lin Xi. He wanted her to shut up. Didn't she find him embarrassing?
Liu Ying was stunned as well. She looked at the monastery before looking at Fangzheng. She smiled wryly inwardly. "It's no wonder his expression didn't change. So what he said was true. But how is this possible? How did he do it? This doesn't make sense … Why would anyone pay to renovate a monastery in such a remote and desolate place? "
At that moment, Fangzheng, who had been silent all this while, spoke. "Patrons, stop looking. Please come in."
Although Fangzheng was speaking to everyone, his gaze only lingered on Lin Xi and Liu Ying for a moment. It was as though everyone else was air.
When the few of them saw this, they exchanged looks as their faces flushed red. They yearned to leave and never look at the bastard monk again! It was especially so for Lin Tai. Ever since his family rose to prominence, when had he ever suffered such humiliation? However, he couldn't flare up with Liu Ying by his side. All he could do was endure it. His teeth chattered as he squeezed out an awkward smile. It was extremely awkward.
If Fangzheng had mocked him instead, he might have felt a little better. He might even have been able to find a reason to defend himself. However, Fangzheng's calm demeanor made it seem as though he didn't exist beside him. It made them feel even worse. The feeling of being ignored was like a bucket of gasoline being poured onto the fire in his heart. It was instantly ignited!
At that moment, Liu Ying sighed and said, "Why must you do this … Sigh."
As she spoke, Liu Ying quickly chased after them.
Upon seeing Liu Ying abandon them and run off with the monk, Lin Tai felt as though someone had thrown a bag of TNT into the fire in his heart. He exploded on the spot! Lin Tai's eyes were bloodshot!
When Li He and Cui Jiandong saw this, Li He hurriedly said, "Boss Lin, don't be angry. No matter how impressive Fangzheng is, all he has is a tiny monastery. How can he compare to you? You have a huge family business. Just a little bit of sand from between your fingers is more than all his wealth. "
