Chapter 1355: Expansion
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“Stop joking. If there’s really a divine power, what’s the country doing? They should have dissected him a long time ago, right?”
“But isn’t Master Fangzheng said to have divine powers?”
“Those fake masters even say that they know how to use internal energy. All they do is shout slogans about how amazing they are to send a group of people flying with a single punch. But in the end, it’s always the same. Before the other party has done anything, they will be on the ground, feigning ignorance. Of course, it’s not that I suspect Abbot Fangzheng. I’m just sharing a principle. Only believe in what you see, not what you hear.”
These workers were discussing fervently.
Old Sun went forward and said, “Abbot Fangzheng, what are you doing? Are you going to jump down the mountain? Don’t waste time with performing divine powers, alright?”
Old Sun’s meaning was very clear. He believed that Fangzheng was going to perform a show in front of so many people to show his divine powers. However, his tone was filled with impatience.
Wang Yougui didn’t know what to say. This was because he was informed by Squirrel, but Squirrel hadn’t said what Fangzheng would do.
Just as Wang Yougui was at a loss for words, Dog Song suddenly shouted, “Abbot Fangzheng is moving!”
Old Sun shook his head when he heard that. He thought to himself, “These people always like to play to the gallery and stir up some news.
Old Sun did not look up. He only glanced at the treasured materials that he cherished.
Old Sun was dumbfounded when he took a look. He subconsciously rubbed his eyes…
The materials trembled and then slowly flew up!
“How… how is this possible?” Old Sun looked at the flying logs in disbelief!
He had been here for such a long time, and he was just short of hugging these materials to sleep. It could be said that he had seen every single piece of material for more than ten times. He knew every inch of them! He cherished them deeply!
He knew very well that no one had tampered with the wood, but how did they fly?
The others also noticed something strange and exclaimed.
“Look, the wood is flying!”
“Oh my god, what’s going on?”
“A miracle, a true miracle!”
“No, I have to take a photo.”
“Don’t. Master said to just watch. Don’t take pictures, lest it causes trouble,” said Dog Song hurriedly.
“Since it’s what Master said, we’ll follow his instructions. It’s a pity. It’s such a good opportunity to posture.” Everyone sighed.
Old Sun and Old Ma were completely dumbfounded. They watched as the wood flew into the sky and directly flew up Mt. One Finger…
The only thing they could do was swallow their saliva and rub their eyes. Finally, they looked at each other and saw the shock in each other’s eyes!
As they raised their heads, they saw Fangzheng on the mountain, his white robes fluttering in the wind as he stood with his arms spread open.
Sunlight shone from behind Fangzheng. It was as though his entire body had been lit up. He looked extremely holy that made one wish to worship him.
“He lives up to his reputation!” Old Sun sighed sincerely.
Old Ma said, “Old Sun, do you still feel that the materials deserve better? Is the monk not qualified to live in it?”
Old Sun said with a bitter smile, “Old Ma, don’t mock me. Only he has the right to live in a building house made of these materials. A godly person…”
Old Ma nodded as well. Then, the two of them summoned the engineers. “Stop looking. Hurry up and go up the mountain. Make haste!”
Everyone agreed and brought their tools along.
When they reached the top of the mountain, they saw that the materials at the foot of the mountain were piled neatly on the mountain!
At once, everyone was filled with emotions.
Old Sun sighed and said, “He’s indeed a godly man… Old Ma, I suddenly feel that the Master deserves to live in a better monastery.”
Old Ma smiled and said, “Then what kind of place will be deserving for him?”
Along the way, Wang Yougui was also afraid that the experts would put on airs. Therefore, he did not stay idle along the way. Instead, he briefed the experts the work that One Finger Monastery had done.
From One Finger Village’s development to the development of all the nearby villages, not only did people accumulate wealth, everyone’s character had also improved.
In the villagers’ words, they were the villages at the foot of One Finger Monastery. When they were outside, they represented One Finger Monastery and One Finger Village. They couldn’t embarrass One Finger Monastery and One Finger Village, right?
When the other villages saw this, they didn’t agree. One Finger Village wasn’t anything special. Just because they were well-mannered, did it mean that they were lacking in manners?
Therefore, they collectively improved. Now, Dog Song had to wake up early in order to sweep the streets.
Furthermore, all sorts of good deeds that Fangzheng had done outside had been dug out by the media. They could find plenty of instances on the Internet…
The multi-dimensional changes made Old Ma and Old Sun, experts who only cared about their craft and ignore the ways of the world, have to admit that Fangzheng have done great deeds.
Facing such a person, both of them put down their pride.
Old Sun looked at the materials and smiled. “To be honest, these materials aren’t worthy of him. We have to put in our best effort.”
Old Ma smiled and said, “Let’s do it! With so many good materials, it’s enough for us to have some fun. Haha…”
The two of them laughed at the same time. Then, they called for the others to measure the land and prepare for One Finger Monastery’s expansion.
It was Fangzheng’s first time seeing the two supervisors of the construction team exchange their opinions.
Fangzheng’s intention was very simple. “This Penniless Monk only has a few people in this monastery. There’s no need for it to be too big. It’s enough just to have them. Everything just needs to be simple… Also, can you extend the backyard with another row as meditation rooms for the disciples?”
When Old Ma and Old Sun walked to the backyard to look at the woodshed and Red Boy’s hanging cot, they immediately said angrily, “How can Master’s disciples live in such an environment? It has to be built!”
Following that, Old Ma and Old Sun began discussing the expansion of the monastery. Together with the construction materials that Li Xueying sent, they decided to open a door on both sides of the monastery. On the other side, they would build a Guan Yin Hall and Kṣitigarbha Hall on either side.
One side would consecrate Guan Yin Bodhisattva and the other Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
The two of them had originally planned on building a Heavenly Kings Hall at the entrance. People would pass through the Heavenly Kings Hall before entering the monastery.
This was also the arrangement of most monasteries.
However, Fangzheng rejected it. The reason was simple. The entrance had the Bridge of Helplessness and the Heavenly Dragon Pond. On both sides were two ginkgo trees that were already three meters tall. There was obviously no space for the Heavenly Kings Hall…
Most importantly, this door was the Formless Door. It couldn’t be destroyed!
Even so, the two old masters racked their brains and were adamant about building the four Heavenly Kings at the entrance!
The status of the four Heavenly Kings in Buddhism was different from ordinary Bodhisattvas. They were also different from Skandas.
Their existence was firstly to suppress evil and secondly, to bless people with peace. It could be considered the monastery’s security.
To Fangzheng, as long as the main entrance wasn’t greatly changed, they could do whatever they wanted.
