Fangzheng smiled. "It's This Penniless Monk. Patron, are you looking for This Penniless Monk?"
"Master, hello. My name is Cao Ye. I have a knot in my heart that I haven't been able to resolve. I heard that you are an expert, so I wish … to seek your help, "Cao Ye said, feeling a little embarrassed.
There were many people who sought Fangzheng's help, but most of them directly asked about good or bad luck. Fangzheng always kept his mouth shut regarding this. He wasn't a fortune-teller. Besides, Fangzheng wouldn't easily activate his Wisdom Eye to guide people without merit. Therefore, he wasn't surprised that Cao Ye had said so. Instead, he pointed to a chair under the bodhi tree, and the two took their seats.
After sitting down, Fangzheng said, "Patron, feel free to ask if you have any questions. This Penniless Monk will naturally tell you if he knows or can say it. If This Penniless Monk lacks wisdom and can't resolve the knot in your heart, please don't blame me. "
Resolving a knot in one's heart required not only divine powers, but also insights into life and the Buddhist Dharma. Fangzheng didn't dare blow his own trumpet when it came to this. Therefore, before he began, he made things clear. I know. I'll say it. I don't know. Sorry, I can't help you either. I don't want to brag all day only to end up blabbering nonsense. If that happens, it will only cause harm to others. If it doesn't work in the end, there might even be retribution. If it were seen through, it would be embarrassing. It would also ruin his reputation. It wouldn't be worth it.
Cao Ye felt relieved when he heard Fangzheng say so. He had seen many cheats, fake monks, and fake Daoists. They claimed to know everything in the world, ancient and modern. They often claimed to be the reincarnation of a living Buddha or a Perfected Lord that had descended to the mortal world. This was the first time he had encountered such an honest monk. Upon hearing such words, he felt at ease.
However, Cao Ye still appeared a little flustered. He sat there rubbing his hands as though he was a little embarrassed.
Fangzheng didn't rush him. All he did was wait silently. He refused to believe that the punk could withstand the cold just by rubbing his hands on such a cold day! Did he really think he had the White Lunar Monk Robe to protect him?
Indeed, after sitting for a while, Cao Ye felt his body turn cold. The Frost Bamboo chair beneath him was also cold. He felt that his butt would freeze if he sat any longer. So he moved his butt, as if he was rubbing against it to generate heat. He couldn't help but say, "Master, I … I'm chasing after a girl."
Fangzheng was rendered speechless when he heard that. Was it really alright to discuss this with a monk?
Monkey looked up into the sky before looking at the Mt. One Finger's Mt. Tongtian mountain range … The last person who came to ask about this had apparently been advised to build a monastery across the mountain range.
Noticing Fangzheng's silence, Cao Ye imagined that Fangzheng was listening, so he continued. She was a little shy when she didn't say anything, but now that she did, she felt much better and spoke more fluently, "I … I'm still in university, but I really like her. She's a very cute girl. She likes to eat, likes to talk, and her every move is very cute … "
The more Fangzheng heard, the more uncomfortable he felt. It was already past Valentine's Day, and he had come to the mountain to hide. It had even snowed and sealed the mountain. Why couldn't he avoid being abused?
Cao Ye talked for more than ten minutes about how good girls were …
Fangzheng couldn't bear listening any further and finally interrupted, "Patron, does she like you?"
Cao Ye was instantly taken aback. Then, like a frosted eggplant, he withered and said bitterly, "If she liked me, would I still be here?"
Fangzheng rolled his eyes inwardly. The discomfort from before was now a lot better because they were both single dogs.
Monkey shook his head and went out, mumbling. "We are all in the same boat, so why is there a need to abuse each time we meet? Sigh … It seems I'm also single. Amitabha. "
Cao Ye continued, "Actually, I don't know if she likes me either …"
Fangzheng thought, "Why are you asking if you don't even know?" Although Fangzheng didn't know how to woo a girl, there was one thing he knew very well. Everything had to be done clearly! Otherwise, if you secretly have unrequited love, even if you break the wall, who will know? Back when Fangzheng was in school, his deskmate had unrequited love. He would secretly buy all sorts of delicacies for the girl, but he was too embarrassed to admit it. Every time someone asked him who bought it, he would blush. He blushed and pointed at another classmate. In the end, half a year later, his goddess got together with that punk. That punk wasn't honest and actually admitted it! Once, when they were chatting, the punk kept smiling foolishly, saying that he had made a killing by having a girlfriend fall from the sky!
As such, his deskmate also received a new nickname — Living Lei Feng of the New Era and Little Top Scholar Who Gave Away Girls.
With that experience, Fangzheng understood a principle. Regardless of whether someone liked you or not, courting them openly could at least guarantee that you wouldn't do anything for naught.
With this in mind, Fangzheng was just about to say a few words when Cao Ye said, "Some people who don't know anything gave me blind advice and got me to make things clear."
The moment that was said, Fangzheng was stunned. He was too embarrassed to say what he wanted to say, so all he could do was ask, "And then?"
Cao Ye said, "Then I told her."
"And then?" Fangzheng asked. He was also curious. What would happen after making things clear?
Cao Ye shrugged and said, "Then she asked me, 'We are still in school and have nothing. Everything is given to us by our parents. What can I give her by courting her? Master, we are still in school, so what can I give her? '"
Fangzheng frowned slightly. This question was a little difficult. After frowning and thinking hard, Fangzheng had a plan. It was time to express his attitude. Things like 'sincerity' should be thrown out.
However, before Fangzheng could say a word, Cao Ye said, "This question really stumped me. Then the trash on the bunk above me, who basically has no emotional intelligence, told me that I should say: 'I have sincerity and sincerity. Although I don't have anything now, I will work hard to give you everything!'"
Fangzheng's face darkened when he heard that. Why did he have the feeling that this punk was here to cause trouble? However, he still asked, "And then?"
Cao Ye said, "And then, I did as he said."
"And then?" Fangzheng was also very curious. How would the girl react after saying that?
Cao Ye sighed and said, "The goddess looked at me like she was looking at an idiot. She chuckled and didn't say a word before turning to leave. Master, what do you think she meant? "
When Fangzheng heard that, his forehead instantly broke out into a cold sweat! To ask him such a question? How would he know? A woman's heart was like a needle at the bottom of the sea. Who could figure it out? However, since he had asked, he couldn't possibly not answer, right? Therefore, Fangzheng decided to answer with such a question as a form of respect.
However, Cao Ye said, "Sigh, I asked a few idiots in my dorm, but they didn't know what was going on either. They kept saying that a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea. Pui! If they have no brains, so be it. Why are they finding such an excuse? How old-fashioned! "
