Just like that, the day passed by slowly.
Before Lame Ma left, he asked Fangzheng, "Abbot Fangzheng, it's the Double Yang Festival tomorrow. How do you plan on celebrating it?"
Fangzheng was taken aback. There was a festival tomorrow? He shook his head and said, "I haven't decided yet. We'll see."
After sending Lame Ma off, Fangzheng began pondering. It was the Double Yang Festival. Since he had nothing better to do, he might as well bring his disciples on an autumn outing.
With this in mind, Fangzheng made up his mind.
After returning to One Finger Monastery, he heard Red Boy's voice before he entered. "Senior Brothers, let me tell you. There's a festival tomorrow!"
"What festival? Is there anything delicious to eat? "Squirrel, who had returned to the monastery first, was the first to shout.
"Tomorrow is the ninth day of the ninth month. That's what the two visitors said," said Red Boy.
"The ninth day of the ninth month? What festival is that? What a strange name, "said Lone Wolf.
Red Boy said, "Those who don't know can look it up on the Internet. Let me see … The ninth day of the ninth month. Hehe, there are people asking about it too. Let me see how everyone answers. This post has the highest number of Likes. It's that one … "
"Junior Brother, can you stop wasting time? Hurry up and tell us. What's the ninth day of the ninth month? "Monkey finally lost his cool and asked.
"I'm reading. In summary, it means that the ninth day of the ninth month is the Double Yang Festival!" said Red Boy.
"Double Yang Festival? Why is it called the Double Yang Festival? "asked Lone Wolf out of curiosity.
Fangzheng was delighted when he heard that. It was a good thing that his disciples loved to learn. He did not enter and stood outside to listen. If Red Boy explained it well, he would praise him later.
Just as Fangzheng was wondering how to reward Red Boy, Red Boy said in all seriousness, "The ancients regarded six as Yin and nine as Yang. When two nines are together, it's naturally the Double Yang Festival. Furthermore, there are activities on this day. "
Fangzheng nodded inwardly. That was indeed the explanation.
"What activities?" asked Squirrel.
Red Boy coughed dryly and looked up. "Three things. Climbing high, admiring chrysanthemums, and planting cornel!"
Fangzheng's brows immediately knitted together. Planting cornel, climbing high, admiring chrysanthemums, drinking chrysanthemum wine, and enjoying the autumn scenery were indeed activities for the Double Yang Festival. But why did the order of Red Boy's answers and the tone of his voice make him feel so strange?
Just as Fangzheng thought that he was overthinking things, Red Boy scratched his head and asked, "Do you know who Dogwood is? I'm guessing it's a man. Otherwise, why would it be Chongyang? "
When Fangzheng heard that, his heart burned with anger!
"Jingxin!" Fangzheng stepped through the door and looked at Red Boy with a beaming smile.
Red Boy looked at Fangzheng's smile. With his understanding of Fangzheng, he knew that the fellow was full of nefarious ideas and was about to scam others!
"Master, I remember now. I still have work to do. I'm leaving first! "With that, Red Boy ran away.
Fangzheng said, "Stop! Give chase! Where's the real broom? Today, I'm going to enforce justice on behalf of the heavens. Where are you going? "
…
After a day of bustling around, Fangzheng was exhausted. He slept especially soundly that night. In his dreams, he felt like he had returned to his childhood. He had followed a group of adults up a mountain and admired the red leaves that filled the mountain. He looked at the sky and listened to the adults talk. At that moment, someone patted Fangzheng and asked, "Where's Dogwood?"
Fangzheng felt his asshole tighten as he sat up abruptly. He subconsciously looked around. It was a false alarm …
"This prodigal child is really a scam." Fangzheng wiped the sweat from his forehead as he mumbled inwardly.
When he pushed open the door, the moon was setting in the west. There was still some time before daybreak. On the silent Mt. One Finger, there wasn't even the sound of wind. Fangzheng could vaguely hear snoring coming from the kitchen. Fangzheng tiptoed and secretly went to the kitchen's door. With the night's illumination, he looked inside and saw Monkey sleeping soundly.
It wasn't Monkey who was snoring, but Red Boy who was sleeping in the cradle. The cradle shook as he snored.
As Fangzheng watched, a voice suddenly sounded beside him. "What are you looking at?"
"Looking … Aiyah, holy sh * t!" Fangzheng was just about to answer when he suddenly jolted to his senses. He turned his head and saw a dog's head covered in fur looking at him. Its eyes were even glowing! Fangzheng jumped in fright. On careful look, he was surprised to see Jingfa. As a wolf that grew up in the wild, Jingfa had always fallen asleep the moment his head hit the pillow. However, he would wake up to see what ants were passing by. His vigilance was definitely the highest in One Finger Monastery.
As for Squirrel? He was originally quite vigilant, but ever since he became fatter from eating, he began to sleep more and more soundly …
Comparatively speaking, the monkey was also slightly inferior.
Fangzheng patted Lone Wolf on the head and said, "A human scares others to death. Be softer next time."
Lone Wolf rolled his eyes. "Master, I'm a wolf, not a human."
"A wolf scares others to death." Fangzheng changed his words in a righteous manner and used it again.
Lone Wolf was left speechless when faced with the thick-skinned monk.
"Master, what are you looking at?" asked Lone Wolf.
Fangzheng grunted. "I'm looking to see if your junior brother is sleeping soundly."
"From the looks of it, it should be. He's even snoring," said Lone Wolf.
"Okay." Fangzheng nodded and walked into the kitchen.
When Monkey woke up, Fangzheng gestured for him not to make a sound. Monkey looked at the snoring Red Boy and nodded. He sat there, waiting to watch the show.
"Go." Fangzheng gave Lone Wolf an encouraging look.
Lone Wolf pricked up his brows. What a naughty trick! He loved it the most! He went over happily, but he did not see Monkey covering his face and shaking his head. Lone Wolf stood up like a human and placed his paw on the cradle. He barked at Red Boy!
"Aiyah, why did I bark like a dog? Indeed, I can't play with dogs. If I play with them for too long … "This thought flashed through Lone Wolf's mind.
But the next moment, he felt a gust of wind blow at him. When he focused his eyes, he saw a tiny fist smashing into his head!
Almost at the same time, Fangzheng opened the kitchen door and saw Lone Wolf fly out with a silver-white shadow in tow … He slammed into the ground with a thud and tumbled a few times before coming to a stop. He sprawled on the ground with his limbs spread out as he looked at Fangzheng in a daze. He said pitifully, "Master … Why did you open the door?"
"You still need to repair it if you are injured. By flying out, you can dissipate the force in midair and reduce the pain," said Fangzheng in all seriousness.
When Lone Wolf heard that, he thought silently and mumbled. "Why do I feel like you are spouting nonsense?"
Monkey heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. His intelligence was still there, so there was hope.
Fangzheng blushed. "You are overthinking things."
"Master, what are you doing? Why aren't you sleeping this early in the morning? Why are you shouting? "Red Boy crawled up with sleepy eyes.
Fangzheng said, "Nothing. I couldn't sleep, so I woke you up to go out for a walk. Today is the Double Yang Festival. Let's ascend … "
