Chapter 1331 - I’m Very Generous

The Monk That Wanted To Renounce Asceticism

Chapter 1331: I’m Very Generous

Fangzheng said, “It’s very simple. Stop the damaging attempts and compensate me.”

Orante said, “I still have to compensate when I didn’t do anything?”

Fangzheng threw up his hands. “You know very well what you did. Of course, you don’t have to compensate. After all your father said that as long as you aren’t killed, This Penniless Monk has free reign over you. Jingxin, bring the cucumber over.”

Jingxin handed Fangzheng a cucumber as Fangzheng took it without any hesitation and smacked it at the phone.

Piak!

Orante felt an icy pain on his face. He covered his face with his hands and was surprised to find that he had been slapped by a cucumber!

“Orante, why is there a cucumber on your face?” Orna covered her mouth, her face filled with disbelief.

Orante said angrily, “Fangzheng, you actually used a cucumber to insult me?”

Just as he said that, Fangzheng picked up a hammer and asked, “What did you say?”

Orante’s face instantly turned livid. He swallowed hard. “I… I… You cannot kill me! You promised my father!”

“Master, it’s really easy to beat someone to death with that thing of yours. It’s better to use mine. I’ve prepared a spiked club for you. Look, isn’t it big enough? This thing is made of bamboo. Hit him lightly and his skin will tear. He won’t die,” someone shouted from the other side.

Following that, the camera turned and Orante’s face instantly turned pale. He saw a salted fish walking over with a huge bamboo stick that was covered in bamboo spikes.

Following that, he saw a squirrel scold. “You are too much! Master, you should use mine. It’s gentler. Look at my rod.”

With that said, Squirrel pointed at a bamboo rod as thick as a thumb on the table.

Upon seeing the bamboo rod, Orante said, “This squirrel is gentle…”

But when the camera zoomed in, Orante immediately cursed, “Demon! He’s not human! Eh… He’s not human to begin with!”

There were actually quite a number of metal objects on the bamboo rod shimmering with light. When he leaned closer, he saw that the bamboo rod was covered with fish hooks!

In other words, if the rod were to land on him before hoisting up, the fish hook would pull off a piece of meat…

That feeling…

Just thinking about it made him feel like dying.

“You are too evil. Master, use mine. It’s in its all-natural form. There’s no need to innovate. It’s a treasure that has existed since ancient times. It’s a branding iron.” Red Boy waved a red-hot steel rod.

“Jingzhen, didn’t you prepare something?” Fangzheng suddenly asked Monkey who had been eating quietly.

Monkey thought for a moment and said, “Master, I think it’s too bloody to use those things. Furthermore, it’s a waste of resources. I think we can just use the water we have left from our cooking. Yes… Remember to aim at the face.”

“Junior Brother, if you do that, it’s equivalent to disfigurement,” said Red Boy.

Monkey shrugged his shoulders and said, “Not really. It could also be plastic surgery.”

Squirrel covered his face and said, “When the boiled water splashes, there will be blisters all over its face. If that’s plastic surgery, how ugly would one need to be?”

Fangzheng did not say a word.

Orante shouted, “I… Run!”

Orante turned around and ran. However, a hand reached out from the cell phone and grabbed Orante’s collar. Fangzheng chuckled and asked, “Where are you going?”

“I… I’ll go get the money. Compensation, alright?” Orante looked at the monk on the phone and cried.

He had no choice but to cry. These fellows in front of him were all crazy!

Fangzheng smiled in satisfaction. “Of course you can… It’s good to repent. The sea of bitterness knows no bounds. Turn back to the shore before it’s too late. Amitabha. Patron, don’t throw away your cell phone. Otherwise, This Penniless Monk will climb through a television or computer or find you in the middle of the night. When that happens, This Penniless Monk will be using his disciples’ equipment.”

Having seen Fangzheng’s methods, what else did Orante dare say ?

He nodded like chicken pecking at grain and promised repeatedly about immediate compensation and to withdraw all the bounties.

After hanging up, Orante slumped to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.

“Orante, I told you that you shouldn’t have offended him,” Orna looked at Orante’s expression and said, feeling pity for him.

Orante waved his hand… He couldn’t say a word.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door and said, “President, the Chinese Orante branch called and said that the people we found all came to our building. All of them are sitting at the door and refusing to leave. As you know, they are all patients with AIDS, no one dares to touch them…”

As soon as these words came out, the last bit of hope in Orante’s heart was snuffed out.

Since all his plans had gone up in smoke, he gave up.

“Master, Master, there’s a message from the bank. We have a lot more money on our card!” Red Boy exclaimed happily.

Fangzheng immediately felt energized when he heard that. He hurriedly checked. Indeed, the card had an additional 100 million USD!

Upon seeing this money, Fangzheng couldn’t help but laugh. He sighed from the bottom of his heart. “Indeed, earning money will never be as fast as stealing money…”

What surprised Fangzheng the most was that the System did not appear to take it away!

In other words, he could keep things like compensation.

With this in mind, Fangzheng felt even happier.

“Master, now that we have money, isn’t it time to squander?” Red Boy asked with a crafty look in his eyes.

Fangzheng thought for a moment and said, “Indeed. It’s time to spend it and improve everyone’s food.”

Red Boy immediately shouted, “Master, can I try online purchasing? It’s so popular, but I haven’t bought anything before.”

Upon hearing that they could buy things, Monkey, Lone Wolf, Squirrel, and Salted Fish were all energized. They looked at Fangzheng in delight.

Fangzheng clapped and said, “No problem. I’ll give you ten yuan each. Go crazy!”

The moment that was said, the excited fellows instantly shriveled up…

Salted Fish said, “I knew it. With Master’s stingy character, don’t expect him to change.”

Lone Wolf, Squirrel, and Monkey nodded.

“Jingzhi, what did you say?” Fangzheng pricked up his brows and asked.

Salted Fish immediately said, “Master, you will unify and rule the world for all eternity[1]!”

Fangzheng raised his foot and kicked him. “Do you need me to castrate myself?”

Salted Fish hurriedly said, “How would I dare… Master, let’s go shopping first. Bye.”

With that said, the few fellows ran off.

Fangzheng looked at their backs and shook his head.

Fangzheng wasn’t really stingy, or was unwilling to let them spend.

Now, One Finger Monastery really did not lack anything.

In addition, Fangzheng didn’t wish for them to come into contact with things that were related to money. The world was full of evils. Money wasn’t the primary evil, but it was about close.

After getting used to spending money, it would be too difficult to return to poverty and their true selves again.

This was also the reason why Fangzheng restrained himself…

Fangzheng was constantly reminding himself that being a Master was nothing but a farce.

If he forgot his true self and couldn’t be honest to himself, everything was pointless…

He had gained because he could achieve it. If his moral conduct was problematic one day, he would lose whatever he obtained sooner or later.
