She walked over and bowed to everyone. As she bowed, she said, “I’m sorry, I know I was wrong… I’m sorry…”
Everyone was taken aback by Wang Guixiang’s sudden bowing. When they came to their senses, they looked at each other in embarrassment.
Therefore, everyone said, “Forget it. It’s fine. Just watch your dog in the future.”
…
“Master, are these people forgiving her just like that?” Salted Fish secretly asked.
Fangzheng chuckled and said, “This is the virtue in the hearts of the Chinese. They are a group of people who do not hold grudges. They have a broad heart that can accommodate all good people who have truly repented. Similarly, they hold grudges the most. They remember those bastards who never repent while going further down the wrong path… On this point, they firmly believe that it’s never too late to take revenge.”
Salted Fish mumbled. “Master, you seem to be implying something.”
Fangzheng said, “The logic is the same. It’s only natural that there are implications.”
At that moment, the crowd that was watching the commotion looked at Fangzheng. The store owner said, “Master, well…”
Fangzheng smiled. “Amitabha. Since everyone has forgiven her, This Penniless Monk is naturally willing to help.”
With that said, Fangzheng said, “Jingfa, stop.”
Lone Wolf immediately stopped when he heard that. He threw the muzzle stick to the side and ran over to Fangzheng with a look of resentment as though he was saying: “Master, I haven’t had enough fun.”
Fangzheng rolled his eyes at him. “Go back and drag Salted Fish. Stop playing here.”
The innocent Salted Fish immediately shouted when he heard that, “What does that have to do with me? I’m just lying here and I’m getting innocently implicated?”
Fangzheng said, “That’s right. Lying down is what it means to be innocently implicated. You cooperated well.”
Salted Fish: “…”
On the other side, people were already helping Chen Haocheng remove the grass leaves hanging on his body. Chen Haocheng was crying like a child… As he cried, he said, “I was just walking a dog, but I didn’t walk such a big dog… Can’t I not walk one in the future? Can’t I use a leash?”
Everyone laughed when they heard that…
The store owner said, “A vile person will be bedeviled by someone of the same ilk. You are lucky to meet this monk. If you meet a bad-tempered person, they might not release a dog, but a knife. That would be scary.”
Hearing this, Chen Haocheng’s heart trembled…
He thought back to what he had just experienced. An ordinary dog might chase him, reducing him to a sorry state, but if he didn’t die, someone might do something extreme.
Thinking of himself and others, he broke out in a cold sweat.
At that moment, someone said, “Eh? Where’s that dog? Where’s Master?”
Wang Guixiang, Chen Haocheng, the shop owner, and company looked around when they heard that. Indeed, the monk was gone. The nearly two-meter tall dog was gone as well…
Everyone looked at each other…
There wasn’t a lot of greenery in the estate, and they were all short. Some of the trees were newly planted. They were bald and couldn’t block their line of sight. They could see the entrance of the estate at a glance…
It was impossible for him to walk out of their sight in just seconds.
Then, the question was, where was he?
“Monk, big dog, using an indecent trick… Do you think that monk is Abbot Fangzheng?”
“Sigh… Now that you mention it, think about it carefully. This monk came for no reason and left mysteriously. Perhaps it’s really Fangzheng!”
“Thinking about it carefully, I actually can’t remember how he looks like. Do you remember?”
“I only remember a tattered monk robe. As for his appearance… I can’t remember.”
“I remember the news saying that Fangzheng now dresses in tattered monk robes. We can’t remember clearly because he likely doesn’t want us to recognize him… Besides, to have such a big and intelligent dog, perhaps only One Finger Monastery has one, right?”
With that said, Wang Guixiang and Chen Haocheng shuddered. They had fiercely said that they had wanted to beat the monk.
Now that they heard that the monk was Fangzheng, they immediately felt their hearts turn cold. If they were to really beat the monk, they would likely end up in a worse state…
The two looked at each other and saw what they were thinking. “When one is far away from authority the powers that be will not intervene, but the monk is near. Let’s live well in the future.”
…
“Ding! You have done two good deeds in a row. Are you going to draw?” asked the System.
When Fangzheng heard that, he smiled. “Two good deeds. Can I get a full reward?”
“Everything has restarted. You can indeed draw a top reward now,” said the System.
Fangzheng was immediately interested when he heard that. “Alright, let’s do it!”
“Are you sure?” asked the System.
Fangzheng smiled. “Yes!”
“Ding! Congratulations on obtaining a Spirit Awakening Talisman!”
Fangzheng was taken aback. Spirit Awakening Talisman? This was the first time he had drawn one, so he was immediately curious.
Fangzheng hurriedly checked the explanations.
Spirit Awakening Talisman: It can awaken intelligence for anything.
Fangzheng’s eyes lit up when he saw this. “Awaken intelligence for anything? Oh my god, System, does this anything include everything? I mean, dead objects…”
The System said, “Anything here has its limitations. Not everything in the world can awaken intelligence. For example, it is unable to awaken intelligence in rocks under normal circumstances. However, if it’s stained with the blood of cultivators or other chance encounters, allowing it to automatically absorb Heaven Earth Essence Energy, it will gain sentience.
“Other than this, there are also some things that can awaken spiritual intelligence, such as things that condensed wish forces. If someone really likes a wooden comb, then this wooden comb would have the person’s wish forces, love, and other emotions. It can then have spiritual intelligence awakened.
“If you don’t have these things, you will be a complete dead object. You won’t be able to awaken its intelligence.”
When Fangzheng heard that, he nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
With Lone Wolf and Salted Fish and money in his pockets, Fangzheng naturally wasn’t in a rush to return to One Finger Monastery. Instead, he continued his travels. In fact, he had also fallen in love with such travels.
The city he was in was not big. After leaving the city, Fangzheng jumped onto Lone Wolf’s back and patted his head. “Jingfa, run.”
Lone Wolf said, “Master, where are we going?”
Fangzheng laughed out loud. “The world is huge. Leave everything to fate. Anywhere would do.”
“Then what do we do?” Salted Fish asked.
Fangzheng looked up at the sky and said, “Let fate decide. If the world is unfair, the gods will direct us there! We will be that god and give light to those in despair… Let’s go!”
“Howl…”
“Pa!”
“Stupid dog, don’t randomly howl. It gave me a fright. You even ruined the atmosphere.”
“Boohoo… Master, I’m helping you create an imposing aura.”
“Cut the crap, let’s go!”
Lone Wolf shook his head and ran off…
Lone Wolf could now run at blazing speeds. Fangzheng felt a little smug when he saw the cars being overtaken one by one.
