The Monk That Wanted To Renounce Asceticism

Chapter 629 Call the Abbot Out

Shao Min turned her head and saw a monk in white monk clothes standing beside him at some point. The monk had a handsome appearance and a gentle face, just like the sunshine in winter, warm and elegant. This is a sunny monk who seems to radiate light.

"Uh... that..." Shao Min was a little embarrassed, saying bad things about people behind their backs, and being overheard, it wasn't very good after all. But Shao Min suddenly realized that this monk is so young, he should not be an abbot or something, at best he is just a young novice, what is she afraid of? And seeing that he was white and clean, he didn't look like a terrorist, so he plucked up his courage and shouted: "So what if I hear it? Am I wrong? Monk, say it yourself, you move this bodhi tree to the north." Come on, is it a crime?"

Fangzheng smiled wryly in his heart, this is really a fierce woman! But Fangzheng also understands that these people are different from Lin Tai's kind of people who specialize in finding faults. They are really out of good intentions, otherwise no outsider would meddle in such nosy affairs, so Fangzheng is not angry.

Although Zhao Gang had an argument with Shao Min just now, it was an internal conflict. Seeing a monk coming, he naturally sided with Shao Min. Going out to be safe, Zhao Gang hurriedly smoothed things over and said: "Master, I'm sorry, my friend's mouth is faster than his brain, and he has no heart, what are you talking about, don't take it to heart."

"Hey, why don't he take it to heart? If he doesn't take it to heart, one bodhi tree will freeze to death today, and more will freeze to death in the future!" Shao Min shouted.

Xue Zong also said: "Zhao Gang, there is no need for us to back down in the face of big right and wrong. This is the monastery's fault in the first place, so there is nothing to be afraid of." Xue Zong, who had never spoken much, stood up to support Shao Min at this time.

Zhao Gang gave a helpless wry smile, pulled the two of them aside, and said in a low voice: "My Young Master Xue, Aunt Shao, grandma, in this barren mountain, can't you put away the temper of the young miss and the young master? Knowing that there is nothing interesting in this monastery, if these monks are offended, it will be fine if they are beaten, if they are killed and buried, then there is no place to reason."

As soon as these words came out, Xue Zong fell silent. Although what Zhao Gang said was basically unreliable, after all, it was a place of Buddhism, and no matter how dark it was, it would not be possible to kill people and take goods. It's just that when you go out, you always have to be on the safe side... So he is still a little worried.

Zhao Gang's voice was very low, but Fangzheng's ears could hear it clearly, and several disciples heard it too, all of them pursed their lips and secretly laughed. As soon as Fangzheng turned his head, the guys dispersed in an instant. They went out the back door and entered the bamboo forest. There was a burst of laughter...

"Wahhaha, Master is too scary!"

"Finally someone has recognized the essence of Master, haha..."

"hey-hey……"

...

"Ahem, a few benefactors, the poor monk has no interest in killing people." Fangzheng felt that if the people in front of him dragged him down, he would become a great murderer, so he hurriedly said.

"Uh...you can hear it so far away? You are really a demon monk." Shao Min said.

Fangzheng: "..." He found that the monstrous monk's title seemed irresistible.

"Master, don't worry about it, my friend's brain is not clear." Zhao Gang hurriedly shouted.

"You are not brilliant! You have read too many novels! Killing people and burying them, what a fart!" Regardless of Zhao Gang's obstruction, Shao Min came directly to Fangzheng and said, "I admit that what I said was not pleasant, behind the scenes It’s not authentic to say bad things. Now that you’re here, I’ll treat you like a theory!”

Fangzheng nodded, he wanted to hear what this woman had to say.

As a result, Shao Min stopped talking suddenly, looked Fangzheng up and down, finally shook his head, and said with a look of disgust: "Forget it, what's the use of talking about this with you, a little novice? Ask your abbot to come out, I want to argue with him face to face. How can you harm such a rare tree like this, it's outrageous!"

"Yes, yes, tell the abbot." From Zhao Gang's point of view, those who can be abbot generally should have better character, at least they won't beat you up for a disagreement. Moreover, this kind of thing, to tell a little novice, is indeed a bit of a bullshit.

Xue Zong also thought so, if there is anything, it is better to talk to the host abbot. Tell the little monk in front of you that he can't make the decision.

Fangzheng has long been used to such doubts, so he clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, several benefactors, the poor monk is the abbot of this finger temple, the poor monk's dharma name, Fangzheng."

As soon as these words came out, Xue Zong and Zhao Gang were dumbfounded. The one in front of them was the abbot of One Finger Temple? How can this be? How old is this little monk? Are you twenty years old? Such a young abbot?

"What?" Shao Min's eyes stared like light bulbs, with disbelief on his face. Such a young monk as an abbot? How can this be? Although the monastery is not big, the sparrow is small and has all the internal organs, so it won't be defeated enough to let a young monk be the abbot, right? Shao Min knew very well that the monastery was different from other places. The monastery is a place that pays attention to practice. Under normal circumstances, if you do not practice enough, you cannot become an abbot. If there is, it must be an unusual situation. Could it be through the back door? Is this really a fake monastery?

Shao Min looked at the monk in front of him, he didn't look like a bad person at all. Could it be because he was too young and was fooled by others, not knowing that bodhi trees would die in the north? That should be it.

Thinking of this, Shao Min began to sympathize with Fangzheng, and sighed, "Abbot Fangzheng, do you know what kind of tree this is?"

Fangzheng nodded and said, "Bodhi tree."

"You know it's a bodhi tree and you dare to plant it? Are you really not afraid of freezing it to death?" Shao Min asked angrily.

Xue Zong also said: "Abbot, maybe you don't know that the reason why this bodhi tree can live is because the weather is hot now. Once it enters winter, it will be frozen to death immediately. It is not easy for a century-old tree to grow, so it freezes to death It's a pity. If possible, I would like to pay to help you transport this tree back to the south. This can be regarded as a merit..."

With these words, Fangzheng couldn't help but look at Xue Zong differently. Although this person looks ordinary, he is not as handsome as him. But this character, I really have nothing to say. This made Fangzheng couldn't help but think of Lin Tai, who is also rich, why is there such a big gap?

But Fangzheng was also very helpless in his heart, some things were really unclear. This bodhi tree is indeed different. Someone asked Fang Zheng before, but Fang Zheng just laughed and said nothing. In addition, people who knew about One Finger Temple would naturally tell them about the bodhi tree. There is no need for Fangzheng to waste his words...

Today was the holiday, and everyone didn't go up the mountain, so three warm-hearted people came suddenly, Fangzheng really didn't know what to say. explain? The explanation is not clear. Don't explain it, look at this warm-hearted girl, she has a bit of a posture of not giving up until she achieves her goal.

Thinking of this, Fangzheng could only say: "The benefactor is too worried, this tree is different from other Bodhi trees, it is not afraid of severe cold."

"Pfft!" Shao Min laughed on the spot: "You monk, monks don't tell lies, isn't it so natural for you to lie? If you don't know how to do it, just by looking at your appearance, you will really be deceived. It seems that I am also an expert in lying! Do you really think I don’t understand trees? Although I am not an expert in botany, I have basically seen and recognized all kinds of trees in China. This is a century-old Bodhi tree. It's true!"

Zhao Gang said: "Abbot Fangzheng, your lying skills are really bad, worse than mine. Can there be a bodhi tree that is not afraid of freezing?"
