Chapter 1128: Keep Bullsh*tting
Translator: CKtalon Editor: CKtalon
“Master Fangzheng is here!” someone exclaimed.
Everyone knew that Mt. One Finger wasn’t very big, and One Finger Monastery was even smaller. However, if they wanted to see Fangzheng in this tiny temple, they would probably only be able to see him during the morning and evening bell-and-drum striking. However, even at those times, there were occasional cases where people weren’t able to see him. Therefore, getting to see him was like buying the lottery. It all depended on luck.
Now that they saw him in the flesh, everyone was naturally exceptionally excited. They took photos and greeted him.
Fangzheng returned the bows one by one and walked to Chang Yun. He was slightly surprised when he saw Ouyang Fenghua. She was still a student at school, so there weren’t many chances for her to come to One Finger Monastery. She had been there only two or three times over the course of a year.
As for the man beside Ouyang Fenghua, Fangzheng was very certain that he had never seen him before. However, from the way the man looked at Ouyang Fenghua, Fangzheng knew that he was most likely one of Ouyang Fenghua’s pursuers.
However, this matter wasn’t under Fangzheng’s control. He pressed his palms together and said, “Amitabha. Patron, long time no see.”
“Master, it’s been a while. That… I’m sorry. My friend has lived overseas ever since he was young. He only came back two days ago. He has a screw loose,” Ouyang Fenghua said apologetically.
When Chang Yun heard that, he nearly twisted his nose from the angry flaring of his nostrils. He raised his head, giving off the vibe of a gentleman from England. He said lightly, “Let me introduce myself. I’m Chang Yun, the successor of Gulin City’s Chang Yuan Corporation.”
Although Chang Yuan Corporation was in Gulin City, its influence extended to the entire Gulin province. Chang Yuan Corporation’s heavy industry operations covered almost all of the various sites of the Gulin province. At the same time, the Chang Yuan Corporation had also made its forays into the real estate industry. Their company could be seen all across the country, making it a real conglomerate.
This was also the reason why Chang Yun dared to raise his head and speak to Fangzheng. From his point of view, everything in the monastery was fake. It was all a lie. On the other hand, everything in his family was real, something they had fought for with their own abilities.
However, Chang Yun quickly realized that despite saying so much, it seemed like… Nothing existed in the monk’s eyes!
Little did he know that although Fangzheng had been down the mountain several times, he knew nothing about the economy outside. Whatever corporation meant nothing to him. Chang Yun flexing his background was equivalent to playing the zither to a cow.
Upon seeing Fangzheng’s nonchalant expression, Chang Yun felt stifled. “Monk, didn’t you hear me?”
Fangzheng nodded and said, “Yes, and then?”
Fangzheng blinked at Chang Yun and asked innocently.
Chang Yun was instantly rendered speechless. Right… He had heard it, but so what? Must the other party applaud him?
Fangzheng ignored the conflicted Chang Yun and said to Ouyang Fenghua, “Patron, if you have the time, please send This Penniless Monk’s greetings to your father.”
With that said, Fangzheng politely nodded at Chang Yun before coming to the bottom of the stone slab. He nodded at Red Boy, and Red Boy immediately said loudly to everyone, “Patrons, the words on this stone slab are only for the fated. Those who aren’t fated cannot see them.”
Once that was said, everyone present fell into chaos!
“Only for the fated? Those who aren’t fated cannot see the words? How… How is that possible?”
“Words on the stone slab can be encrypted? Could it be a divine power again?”
Most of them were Chinese, with those living physically nearby being completely convinced. The people who came from afar came only because of the hooha, so they had more or less some understanding of Fangzheng. Therefore, everyone couldn’t help but link this inexplicable scene to the famous divine powers.
However, Chang Yun was not one of those people. He had been brought there by Ouyang Fenghua! Or rather, Ouyang Fenghua had come to One Finger Monastery with the excuse of bringing him to pray for blessings. He was just a cover, or perhaps it should be said that he was brought there in pa.s.sing.
His original plan was to go to a quiet coffee shop with Ouyang Fenghua to have coffee where they could talk about life’s ideals before watching a movie to deepen their relations.h.i.+p. Yet he ended up in such a place and had to face a monk that appeared to be a love rival! He felt extremely aggrieved.
It wasn’t that Chang Yun was overthinking things, because he knew girls too well. Girls’ first awakening towards love began with admiration and curiosity. Ouyang Fenghua’s curiosity and adoration towards Fangzheng was practically written all over her face. He was really afraid that the chick he liked would be gone just like that. He couldn’t change Ouyang Fenghua, but what he could do was try his best to destroy Fangzheng’s glorious image in Ouyang Fenghua’s heart.
Therefore, the moment Red Boy said that, Chang Yun commented loudly. “Aren’t you being too vague with your words! May I ask what techniques are you using to achieve that, that only the fated can read it? I hope the two masters can answer my questions.”Read more chapter on our vipnovel.com
This time, he had learned his lesson. He didn’t directly attack. Instead, he wanted to convince everyone from a scientific point of view through a debate.
Upon hearing this, people didn’t roll their eyes at him anymore. Instead, they looked curiously at Fangzheng, waiting for his answer. Who in the world wasn’t curious about divine powers? Even Ouyang Fenghua widened her eyes and looked hopefully at Fangzheng. However, she still tugged at Chang Yun despite him remaining unmoved.
When Red Boy heard that, he subconsciously looked at Fangzheng. What should he say?
Fangzheng smiled and silently nodded. “Get Salted Fish over.”
Although Red Boy didn’t understand why Fangzheng wanted him to get Salted Fish, he still quickly ran out and called him over. To be precise, he pulled Salted Fish over… As he ran, he heard Salted Fish shouting. “Can’t you be more gentle? There are still coins in my mouth! Ugh, I swallowed some…”
Chang Yun’s confident smile instantly crumbled when he saw a speaking salted fish. He stared at the salted fish as though he was looking at an alien creature.
When Ouyang Fenghua saw this, she harrumphed and said, “Come on! Dear scholar, can you tell me from a scientific point of view why a salted fish can speak?”
When Chang Yun heard that, he subconsciously said, “This… needs to be dissected before there can be any conclusion.”
Before Ouyang Fenghua could speak, Salted Fish suddenly turned his head and stared at Chang Yun from head to toe and from toe to head, twice.
Chang Yun subconsciously asked, “What are you doing?”
Salted Fish said, “I’m actually wondering if those two legs of yours are toad legs or human legs. Should I dissect them to see?”
Chang Yun said angrily, “Hey, why are you cursing me?”
Salted Fish said in surprise, “You say I’m cursing you? Then tell me, what are you?”
“I’m a human!” Chang Yun said.
Salted Fish said, “Just because you say you’re human, that makes you a human? What proof do you have?”
“Is there a need to prove that? With me looking like this, what else can I be?” Chang Yun asked.
Salted Fish laughed out loud. “Then look at me. How can I speak?”
Chang Yun: “…”
