The Monk That Wanted To Renounce Asceticism

Chapter 1430: Treatment

The monk ate fruits and drank water… He would smile at him from time to time.

Chen Huachun, who was getting more and more frustrated, finally couldn’t take it anymore. He suddenly stood up and shouted, “I’ve had enough! I want to leave. If you want to chop me down, do it!”

With that, Chen Huachun walked towards the motorcycle…

However, he heard the monk behind him laugh. “Amitabha. Patron, there’s someone behind you.”

Chen Huachun sneered, “There’s someone here? I’m leaving no matter who it is! No one can stop me!”

However, Chen Huachun subconsciously turned around and saw two people—one black and the other white smiling at him. They were Black and White Impermanence, two deities in Chinese folk religion in charge of escorting the spirits of the dead to the underworld. “Your time is almost up. Are you coming with us?”

“Ghost…” Chen Huachun was about to cry out.

He saw the monk stand up, holding his saber as he asked with a chuckle, “Patron, with such good weather and it being such a sunny day, do you want to chat for a few more yuan?”

Upon hearing that, he looked at Black and White Impermanence that had vanished. Chen Huachun’s nerves finally collapsed. He plopped to his knees in front of Fangzheng and shouted, “Master… I know I’m wrong. Call the police. Please call the police… I’ve had enough…”

Fangzheng patted the front of the car and said, “Patron, what should we do about this?”

“I’ll compensate! I’ll compensate however much that’s required, alright? I won’t do this again in the future. Damn it…” Chen Huachun was truly frightened. He didn’t want anything now. All he wanted was to leave this place as soon as possible and stay away from this strange monk.

Fangzheng smiled in satisfaction. “The sea of bitterness knows no bounds. Patron, it’s a good thing that you can figure it out. However, without a phone signal, what can we do?”

When Chen Huachun heard this, he quickly got up and ran over to switch off the jammer. He took the initiative to say, “Call the police, arrest me, please…”

Hua Yue looked at Chen Huachun in confusion but still called the police.

Not long after, the police arrived.

Just as the police car stopped, a man ran over in tears. He opened the car door and got in.

“Hey, hey, hey… What are you doing?” A policeman was shocked. He thought that he had run into a robber who was trying to steal a police car.

“Mr. Policeman, I’m a racketeer. Quick, arrest me… Oh my, there’s air-conditioning in your car? It’s so cool… Do you have water?” Chen Huachun seemed to have seen family and was very enthusiastic. At the same time, he began looking for water…

The police officers rushed over in a hurry, but left in puzzlement. When they reached the police station, they came back to their senses and muttered to themselves, “It’ll be great if the criminals are so cooperative in the future…”

At this moment, on the road.

“Thank you…” Hua Yue looked at Fangzheng and thanked him.

Fangzheng shook his head and said, “Patron, why are you thanking This Penniless Monk? Instead, This Penniless Monk should thank you, Patron. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be easy to walk this journey.”

“Master, it might not be easy for others, but it should be fine for you. Right, Abbot Fangzheng?” Hua Yue smiled as she winked at Fangzheng.

No one was an idiot. Even though she couldn’t understand what had happened earlier, it was precisely because she couldn’t understand the reason behind the other party’s surrender that she found it unbelievable.

In addition, there was a pile of items in her trunk, so Hua Yue made a bold guess.

Fangzheng smiled and pressed his palms together. “Amitabha. To This Penniless Monk, it’s quite difficult…”

Fangzheng wasn’t lying. It wasn’t difficult for him to walk. But starving was tragic…

Two and a half hours later, Hua Yue arrived at her destination. Fangzheng declined Hua Yue’s offer to send him all the way as he left alone.

After finding an empty spot, he quickly rode Salted Fish into the mountain.

Now that he had eaten his fill, Salted Fish could run like he was flying.

In the middle of the night, the man and fish ran to the mountaintop. As they looked at the rundown monastery, they found it all so endearing…

He looked up at the bright moon hanging high in the sky. The stars were resplendent as he lowered his head to look at the monastery. He pushed open the monastery’s door where lanterns accompanied ancient Buddha. As he listened to the crickets’ chirping and distant frogs’ croaks,his heart was filled with tranquility…

At that instant, all the fatigue from running in the mortal world was gone. All that was left was emptiness.

“Master!” A few disciples came out to greet Fangzheng.

Fangzheng pressed his palms together. “Amitabha. Go ahead and sleep first.”

Salted Fish was already exhausted, so he hurriedly went to sleep…

Instead, it was Monkey, Lone Wolf, and Squirrel who appeared to be in high spirits. All of them came over and asked Fangzheng what fun things he had encountered.

Fangzheng thought for a moment and gathered his few disciples over. After everyone sat in the yard, Fangzheng recounted everything that had happened at the foot of the mountain in detail.

As he spoke, he secretly contacted the System and asked, “System Bro, can I exchange for the medical skills needed to heal my disciples?”

“Ding! You currently have four lucky draw chances. To exchange for specific divine powers or items, you need to expend three chances. Do you choose to exchange them?” asked the System.

Fangzheng said without a word, “Yes, I’ll choose to exchange.”

The System said, “Congratulations on successfully exchanging for a bottle of the Sacred Treatment Pills!”

Fangzheng’s heart palpitated when he heard that. He quickly checked the detailed information on Sacred Treatment Pills.

The Sacred Treatment Pills could balance the strength of one’s soul and body, allowing one’s physical body and soul to fuse perfectly.

Fangzheng was immediately delighted when he saw this. He could not help but laugh out in joy as he exclaimed, “Haha, this is what I want!”

The few disciples who were engrossed in listening to the story were shocked when they heard Fangzheng shout.

“Master? Are you crazy?” Squirrel asked.

Fangzheng laughed out loud. “Crazy? I do want to go crazy, but unfortunately, it’s not the time to go crazy.”

With that said, Fangzheng smiled again. With a flip of his hand, a porcelain bottle appeared in his hand. He said with a smile, “Come. Guess what I’m holding?”

Squirrel asked out of curiosity, “Master, is it delicious?”

Monkey scratched his head and said, “Master, the last time you took out such an item, we were able to speak. Now, you are taking it out again. Could it be some kind of magical pill?”

Lone Wolf came over and took a sniff. “Master, what is this for? We can speak now. We don’t need it…”

Fangzheng rolled his eyes at them. “Why are all of you spouting so much nonsense?”

With that said, Fangzheng opened the porcelain bottle and poured out the pills. The pale yellow pills poured into his hands. The pills were simple and unsophisticated, but once they were poured out, they gave off a fragrant smell. The entire yard was filled with this unique fragrance.

“Wow, Master, what’s this? It smells so good!” Squirrel exclaimed in excitement.

“Master, what’s that? The pills we ate last time didn’t smell that good?” Monkey asked out of curiosity.

Lone Wolf came over and took a sniff. “Master, are these the latest rice seeds? They smell so good… It looks delicious.”

Fangzheng smiled and asked, “Do you like it?”

Lone Wolf, Squirrel, and Monkey quickly nodded when they heard that. Their eyes sparkled with excitement.
