The Monk That Wanted To Renounce Asceticism

Midnight—the time to board the spaceship—was approaching.

Master Hairwood could clearly feel that the people around him had already clenched their fists and teeth. Once the time was up, they would either board a spaceship or kill him!

Before anyone else did anything, Master Hairwood felt on the brink of a nervous breakdown.

At that moment, a shrill siren sounded from afar…

A stroke of inspiration came to Hairwood as he yelled, “The government knows that we’re leaving. They’re here to stop us! They’ll scare Xewa away! Everyone, quickly stop them and chase them away!”

If it was any other time, the others would have immediately obeyed him.

But now, his scam had been exposed. Without the packaging of a god, who would believe him?

Instead, Li Qing shouted, “Kill him!”

Following that, the people around him rushed forward!

Master Hairwood’s face turned ashen when he saw this. He closed his eyes and waited for death…

At this moment…

“Amitabha! Patrons, please wait.” A Buddhist proclamation sounded!

The people who were originally angry from the deception and despair had lost all their rationality. When they heard this voice, it was like a warm breeze that thawed their cold hearts.

Everyone could tell that it was the voice of the monk in the dream!

Everyone subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a lotus flower descending from the sky. On the lotus flower stood a white-robed monk. The monk was holding a lotus mark, smiling with a benevolent smile.

“Master, we are going to kill this cheat. Are you going to stop us?” Li Qing shouted.

Fangzheng smiled. “Patron, This Penniless Monk is not here to save him. This Penniless Monk is here to save you.”

Cheng Hao said in surprise, “Master, what do you mean?”

Chen Long added, “That’s right. Master, what do you mean by this?”

Fangzheng said, “The police are here, but you are going to beat him to death. Although he is a criminal who has committed heinous crimes, killing him is equivalent to murder in every law in the world. Killing someone is illegal, and you will be jailed.”

“As long as I can kill him, I’m willing to go to jail! Because of him, I have nothing left!” Li Qing was no longer as composed as she usually was. There was only madness in her eyes. If it wasn’t for Fangzheng who had spoken, she would have ignored him. She would have rushed over and killed Hairwood!

Fangzheng shook his head. “Who said you have nothing?”

Li Qing gave a miserable smile and said, “My family is gone, my money is gone, my job is gone. Now, I don’t even have my faith… What else do I have?”

Fangzheng smiled. “You have yourself.”

Li Qing looked at Fangzheng in confusion, completely not understanding what Fangzheng was saying.

Fangzheng said, “A family can be rebuilt. Money can be earned again, and you can find another job. As for faith… A faith that makes you lose yourself and abandon everything. What’s the use of having a faith that makes life worse than death? Without this faith, you can learn to use your own way to think about life, face this world, and find your own soul. This is a form of release. This is something you obtain and will not lose. You still have plenty of time to live. If you continue living and create more value, wouldn’t it be better than wasting your future on this cheat?”

Li Qing fell silent. She lowered her head and fell into deep thought.

It was not just Li Qing, but Cheng Hao and the others.

Only Jiang Yumeng had not gone through the whole catharsis or been duped of much money. She clenched her fists and looked up at Fangzheng’s starry eyes. “Lu Qing, look! An immortal! Buddha! I can brag for a year when I return!”

Lu Qing nodded. “Can you help me brag for the rest of my life?”

Jiang Yumeng subconsciously said, “Alright…”

Lu Qing: “Hehe… It’s a deal.”

Jiang Yumeng suddenly snapped to her senses as her face flushed red as she gritted her teeth and said, “When we get home, I’ll remove your game equipment and destroy them!”

Lu Qing: “…”

In the sky, Fangzheng’s ears were very good. He had originally led the atmosphere to be solemn. There was warmth and kindness in this grand atmosphere, one filled with positivity! However, Jiang Yumeng and Lu Qing’s whispering instantly made him feel terrible… He sighed inwardly and said, “If This Penniless Monk is truly a god, This Penniless Monk will burn the two of them to death first… I’ll burn all these PDAs. What shameless people!”

At that moment, Li Qing and the others seemed to have understood a lot. Li Qing gritted her teeth and said, “Are we going to let him off just like that?”

Master Hairwood heard Fangzheng’s words and looked at everyone’s reactions. He knew that he was unlikely to be killed. Hence, he sneered. “If you kill me, you will die with me!”

“Hairwood, don’t be smug! If you provoke us, we will kill you!” Cheng Hao said.

Hairwood laughed out loud. “Kill me? Do you dare? Let’s not talk about anything else. When the police arrive, who would dare touch me? Let me beg you, come on, hit me! I can wreak havoc on the first half of your lives. If you hit me, I’ll wreak havoc on the second half of your lives! If you make me suffer, don’t think about having a good time! Come, hit me!”

Hairwood looked at the people in front of him and found them somewhat apprehensive. He knew that it was useless to rely on the monk above to not be beaten or beaten to death at this point in time. He needed an imposing aura that could suppress everyone present!

Therefore, he shouted arrogantly. Indeed…

With Hairwood’s frantic cries, Li Qing and the others were indeed hesitant.

They had heard what Fangzheng said. It was not worth it to sacrifice their second half of their lives for such a rotten person… However, this rotten person was too infuriating!

If they didn’t beat him, they couldn’t quell their rage!

After being deceived for so long, in the end…

At that moment, Chen Long looked up at Fangzheng and said, “Master, are we really unable to do something about him?”

Hairwood sneered, “If you want to protect yourself, you better stay away from me!”

Li Qing also said, “Master… do we really have no way of dealing with evil people? We can only rely on the law?”

Fangzheng sighed. “The law is to protect you. It will avenge you… If you kill him, the law will avenge him.”

Li Qing and the others instantly turned pale. Although the law could help them take revenge, they wanted to do it personally…

Just as everyone looked helpless while Hairwood looked smug, Fangzheng’s voice suddenly had a mischievous tone to it. “As the saying goes, when one’s patience has been taxed to the limit, there’s no need to tolerate further. Since he’s so arrogant, what are you waiting for? As long as he’s not beaten to death, beat him!”

The moment Fangzheng said that, everyone was stunned.

Li Qing, Cheng Hao, Chen Long, Lu Qing, and Jiang Yumeng looked at Fangzheng strangely. Fangzheng looked up and said, “This Penniless Monk didn’t see anything.”
