Yalman said, “I feel like I’m in heaven here… No, I guess in Buddhism, it’s called Paradise.”


  Li Daguang said, “I never expected such a miraculous monastery to exist on this tiny mountain. The morning bell and evening drum cleanses the mind. Just this alone makes me a fan of One Finger Monastery.”


  After saying that, Li Daguang took out his cell phone and started taking photos. Then, he posted them on his WeChat Moments.

  When the rest saw this, they took out their phones and posted it on their Facebook or blogs…


  At the same time, Baird sighed. “I take back what I said previously. Although I haven’t met Abbot Fangzheng, just hearing the bell and drum from earlier, makes me feel that he’s a godly person. I’ll fulfill my promise. I’ll do publicity for him in Brazil! Such a beautiful place, such a sacred place, such a place to cleanse one’s soul and purify evil. Brazilians have to pay a visit!”


  Ottosky chuckled and said, “Although I don’t like that monkey, I’m also going to fulfill my promise. I’ll settle Russia.”


  Nicholas said, “I’ll deal with Europe.”


  Yalman said, “Count me in.”


  Li Daguang chuckled and said, “I think that kid Nguyen Vo Hong would be very willing to work with me. Previously, he visited me and recommended this monastery, but I thought nothing of it. Now, it looks like I have to pay him a visit when I return… What goes around comes around. This year, it’s his turn. Haha…”


  As the few of them smiled smugly, Li Daguang suddenly exclaimed, “Aiyah, I remember now! Abbot Fangzheng only appears in the morning and evening. Once he enters One Finger Monastery, it will be difficult to see him again!”


  Nicholas shouted, “Fangzheng, stop!”


  This shout was extremely loud, and the devotees were shocked.

  A thin man looked up. “What are you doing? One Finger Monastery forbids loud noises. Also, look at how muscular you are. Why are you looking for Abbot Fangzheng? Are you looking for trouble?”


  Nicholas looked at the skinny figure that resembled a bone club before grinning. He rolled up his sleeves and revealed a muscular arm that was as thick as his thigh. “What do you think I’m gonna do?”


  The moment he said that, countless gazes turned over. Countless devotees gathered around and showed their arms, asking, “What do you want to do?”


  Nicholas’s face darkened and he touched his pocket instinctively. “Damn, I didn’t bring a gun!”


  Nicholas turned around to look for reinforcements, only to see Li Daguang and company standing more than ten meters from him!

  The old man who had been chatting with them earlier asked Li Daguang, “Aren’t the two of you together?”


  Li Daguang immediately shouted at the top of his voice, “How is that possible? We’re civilized! We’re not like that guy! I don’t know him, I absolutely do not know him!”


  Nicholas’s face darkened…


  Then, Nicholas mustered up his courage and glared at everyone with a fearless expression. He shouted, “I’m asking where to have my hair shaved bald. Why are you minding me!?”


  “Tsk!” Everyone waved their hands and rolled their eyes at him.

  “Amitabha.” With the commotion, it was impossible for Fangzheng not to know.

  A few hundred people surrounded a foreigner. As the host of the land, he had to come and take a look.

  If they really did hit him, Fangzheng’s heart would ache to death just from the compensation required.

  Therefore, Fangzheng came…


  “Abbot Fangzheng is here. Please make way.” With someone shouting, everyone subconsciously made way for him as they greeted Fangzheng.

  Fangzheng smiled as he pressed his palms together in response. Finally, he came in front of Nicholas and said, “Amitabha. Patron, is there a reason for calling This Penniless Monk?”


  “Master, he wants to ask you. How did you get your hair done?” someone said with a laugh.

  Fangzheng was instantly rendered speechless. Who would believe that?

  When Li Daguang saw this, he hurriedly ran over and said, “Abbot Fangzheng, nice to meet you. I’m Nguyen Vo Hong’s friend. We came to look for you to discuss something. Do you think…”


  Fangzheng watched as more and more people gathered. He knew that this wasn’t a place to talk. All he could do was nod and say, “Alright. Let’s head to the Frost Bamboo forest and have a seat.”


  Under Fangzheng’s lead, Nicholas, Li Daguang, and company finally walked out of the crowd.

  As for Ottosky, he secretly wiped his cold sweat and mumbled, “If we were to fight one-on-one, I wouldn’t be afraid of them.”


  “The monkey is at the door. Do you want to give it a try?” Baird whispered.

  Ottosky lowered his voice and said, “No one is allowed to tell anyone about what happened today!”


  “I want a box of top-notch caviar,” Yalman said.

  “I want one too!” Baird said.

  …


  Ottosky said angrily, “You are taking advantage of the situation!”


  In the end, the other fellows nodded simultaneously. It was obvious they were engaging in daylight robbery.

  With a chink in his armor, Ottosky had no choice but to consent.

  At that moment, Li Daguang exclaimed, “Is this Frost Bamboo? It’s fine from a distance, but close up, wow… Is this made of jade?”


  When the others heard that, they immediately went over to take a look. They exclaimed in shock!

  “It looks transparent under the sunlight!”


  “It’s not completely transparent. It’s really similar to jade. It’s so beautiful that it doesn’t look like real bamboo.”


  “Abbot Fangzheng, is this real bamboo?” Li Daguang did not wish to guess as he asked directly.

  Fangzheng smiled. “That’s bamboo, not jade. Patrons, come in and have a sit.”


  “Sit in such a bamboo forest?” Nicholas asked in surprise.

  Fangzheng nodded. “Yes.”


  Nicholas clicked his tongue, “I thought that lighting candles in an ancient castle and drinking a bottle of vintage red wine is a form of enjoyment in life. Now, it seems that you are even more extravagant than us!”


  All of them nodded in response. What had they not seen before? What had they not eaten before?

  But they had to admit that they had never seen such bamboo before!

  It was a world of ice and snow. They weren’t afraid of freezing to death, and could even brag about it while outside in the cold wind. More importantly, it was the first time they didn’t want to return indoors…


  They were truly old children. At their level, if they were to face someone who didn’t care about worldly matters, they would give up all pretenses and live as carefree old children.

  Fangzheng shook his head slightly. He did not find it extravagant… After all, it got old after experiencing it for a long time; there was nothing amazing about it.

  Everyone took their seats. Fangzheng casually plucked a few Frost Bamboo sprouts on one of the bamboos and threw them into the water flask Red Boy had brought over…


  The few tea connoisseurs grinned and cursed inwardly. Does this monk know how to taste tea? Isn’t this a waste!?

  After opening the teapot’s lid, a faint fragrance of tea wafted out.

  “That’s the smell!” Yalman took a deep breath before exclaiming.
