Chapter 657 Doing Good Deeds and Accumulating Virtue
"Then how are you going to attract business? Are you going door to door?"
Shi Chan shook his head and took out a large flag from the jade identity card. Various businesses were written on the front of the big flag, from exorcising ghosts to begging for children to treating diseases. It was quite comprehensive.
The reverse side of the banner says "Price Negotiation".
Shi Chan took the two of them to the most prosperous area of the city, paid the venue fee, found a small piece of open space, set up a stall, held up a big flag, and sat down at the table safely.
The movements were skillful and it looked like this was not the first time he had done something like this.
Shi Chan kindly brought out two more chairs for Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou to sit on.
On the left side of the Shi Chan stall is a noodle shop, and on the right side is a sesame seed vendor. He is holding a big banner similar to a fortune teller, which is very conspicuous.
Passers-by turned around frequently and noticed this maverick monk, but because he was so maverick, no one dared to come forward to ask for help for a while.
Shi Chan regretted that he had little business at the beginning of every time he opened a stall. Later, when people found out that he was indeed a capable monk, and when he queued up again for help, he saw that there were so many people and so many things that he could not handle them. After that, he left early.
"The world lacks the spirit of innovation and dare not accept new things. If I had your master's eloquence, I would definitely tell stories in teahouses and promote Buddhism to the world."
Lu Yang felt flattered when he met someone who praised his master for the first time. If his master knew about it, he would be very pleased.
"By the way, Senior Brother Meng, have you ever considered joining my Buddhist sect? The poor monk sees that you have a deep connection with Buddhism and are self-taught without a teacher. You have developed the Single Curse Fist. You must be a future Buddha like the poor monk."
"...Just because I am single does not mean that I will never have sex in my life."
Single spiritual root means being forced to be single, while Buddhism emphasizes active singleness. These are two different things.
Meng Jingzhou had already inquired with the Immortal Fairy through Lu Yang. As long as he became an immortal, he would not be limited to being single and could release his sexual desire at will.
"Brother Meng is wrong. Buddhism believes that only by doing good deeds and accumulating virtue can you get good luck. A bhikshuni once asked the Buddha whether someone who originally did evil things but accidentally did good deeds could get good luck. Buddha The answer is yes, those who do good deeds do not care about their deeds."
"So?" Meng Jingzhou was confused and didn't understand what Shi Chan wanted to explain.
"What the poor monk means is that one has no regard for one's heart and one's deeds. Although Senior Brother Meng, you are forced to have no relationship with the opposite sex, in fact, you have achieved the Buddhist requirements of staying away from sexual desire, which is a manifestation of your deep relationship with Buddhism."
Meng Jingzhou: "..."
Just wait, I'll see when you save enough money to go to a brothel. I'll book the brothel in advance and give you twenty drops of aphrodisiac blood to suffocate you to death!
There was no business for a while, so Lu Yang chatted with the old man buying noodles on the left, and Meng Jingzhou chatted with the old man selling sesame seeds on the right.
After waiting for about half an hour, there was finally a deal.
The visitor was dressed luxuriously, wearing gold and silver, with a jade thumb ring on each thumb of his left and right hands, and a big belly.
"Master, I haven't been very lucky recently. I've been having bad luck and failed to negotiate several business deals. Can I ask for money here?"
Shi Chan looked indifferent and clasped his hands together: "This donor, if I could ask for money, I wouldn't set up a stall here."
"..."
It was the first time that the wealthy businessman met such a frank young monk. He thought that he would talk nonsense, persuade him to pay for incense, and then pretend to beg for money for him.
Shi Chan then introduced the second method: "If the donor does not ask for money, you can ask the poor monk's senior brother for help. Senior Brother Meng's family has a lot of wealth and is as rich as the country. If you ask for money from him, you can borrow money from him."
"The donor can also do more good deeds to offset the donor's bad luck."
The wealthy businessman felt that this little monk was not reliable, so he shook his head and left.
Seeing the wealthy businessman leave, the Immortal Fairy shook his head slightly, feeling a little regretful.
"Confused."
In the main hall, the Immortal Fairy is wearing a cassock and sitting on the lotus platform. She looks majestic, but her little feet are restless, and her toes are as pink as pearls.
"Who is confused?" Lu Yang didn't know why.
"That rich businessman doesn't know good people's hearts and doesn't listen to advice."
"I have always advocated doing good deeds and accumulating virtue. Doing more good deeds will definitely drive away the bad luck on his body."
"My advocacy of doing good deeds and accumulating virtue is based on my own experience. The smoothness of my life is related to always doing good deeds, being willing to give good deeds, and being willing to help others."
"I recall that before I became an immortal, the world was in chaos and murderous people were killed. A fight between two people would definitely end in the death of one of them."
"I once fought beyond the level and defeated Yingtian Immortal and Qilin Immortal. Not only did I save their lives, but I also cooked for them. I turned conflicts into friendship and friendship. For a while, I became a good talker."
"Buddhists often say that saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. The truth comes from this incident."
"In ancient times, communication was limited. If you wanted to learn something from others, you not only had to go through harsh tests, but also swear poisonous oaths. Even so, you might not be able to learn the real thing. The master would hide many things, and even worse... There are those who use their skills to control their disciples, casting spells and so on."
"This is not the case for me. Seeing that Lianyi and Xiaoling are quite talented in cultivation, I spent all my money to teach them cooking skills and the art of pretending to be dead."
"There are also barbarians. I saw that the barbarians were stupid by nature and had only a body of force but did not know how to use it, so I enlightened them and made the barbarians stronger and stronger."
After listening to the past events of the Immortal Fairy, Lu Yang finally understood what power was.
Could it be that it was because of his many evil deeds that he attracted the scourge of the Immortal Fairy and brought bad luck to him?
The first business failed, but Shi Chan was not discouraged and continued to wait for the second business.
"Hey, little monk, why are you here? Do you have no money?"
A pretty woman stopped and looked at Shi Chan with interest.
"It turns out to be the wonderful benefactor."
"Who is this?" Meng Jingzhou asked.
"I would like to introduce you to the poor monk. This is the wonderful benefactor of Chunxiang Tower. She is one of the many female donors who served the poor monk last night."
After Shi Chan refined twenty drops of pure Yang blood last night, in order to achieve the best effect of polishing his mood, he called many female donors in Chunxiang Tower to test him.
"Little monk, if you have no money, I can serve you for free once." Miao Shan licked his lips with a seductive expression.
"The wonderful benefactor was joking. The poor monk really failed to withstand the test last night and failed to temper his state of mind. However, it has only been one night. At this time, the poor monk's heart is calm and he will definitely not be tempted by the benefactor."
Seeing Shi Chan's refusal, Miao Shan was quite disappointed.
With her peripheral vision, she noticed the business written on the big banner held up by Shi Chan, and asked again:
"What if I say I want to ask for a wife?"
"Then the donor needs to pay."
Meng Jingzhou's eyes turned red. Is this the result of Shi Chan's good deeds and virtues?
