Boom!
Everyone shuddered, Fangzheng flicked his sleeves and left: "You two, your understanding is too poor. Go back and recite the Diamond Sutra one hundred and eight times with Jingzhen. If you can't finish the recitation, you are not allowed to eat!"
The next moment, the miserable cries of Red Boy and Squirrel came from the mountain road: "I can't live this life!"
…
Fang Zheng didn't feel any distress at all when he heard the two disciples howling like ghosts there. He was used to these two guys' loud voices.
Arriving at the entrance of the temple, Fang Zheng was stunned!
I saw two half-meter-high seedlings growing up at the entrance of Yi Zhi Temple, one on the left and one on the right!
"Huh?" Fang Zheng exclaimed in surprise, immediately ran over, observed carefully, took out his mobile phone to search for information, and kept checking. Finally, Fang Zheng confirmed that these two stupid guys who popped up were the ones he had no hope for. The Arhat Tree-Ginkgo Tree!
"This... how is it possible? This thing is famous for growing slowly, so it must be growing too fast." Fang Zheng looked incredulous.
"Ding! Is it any wonder that the Bodhi tree can absorb the Buddha's energy and is not afraid of severe cold and is lush all year round? Is it any wonder that the Arhat tree, which also comes from Lingshan, grows faster? The Arhat tree absorbs the Buddha's energy in the temple, the vows of all living beings, The smell of incense can speed up growth. The incense in your small temple is still too little. If it is placed in a holy place like Lingshan, where millions of people worship every day, it will grow into something in one day, and it is not impossible to bear fruit. "The system naturally despised Fang Zheng.
Fang Zheng was used to being looked down upon. He couldn't scold or hit him anyway, and he was too lazy to talk to the system.
Touching the Luohan tree, he said in wonder: "As expected of a product from Lingshan, the tricks for seeking death are the same. The fool in the yard sprouts sprouts in winter, and you are not bad either. Beginning of Autumn has passed, and the Autumn Equinox is approaching, and you have sprouted." Is this to show off your resistance to freezing?"
However, the Luohan tree was not an animal after all, and it didn't react at all. It stood there cutely and ignored Fang Zheng's nonsense.
Fang Zheng chuckled and said, "I don't care about these two trees. It's a good thing that these two guys are growing fast." After the experience of Hanzhu and the Bodhi tree, Fangzheng was full of curiosity about anything produced by Lingshan. The Bodhi tree filled the temple with vitality and Buddha nature, while Hanzhu completely turned the barren Yizhi Mountain into a beautiful little world. Additional food was also provided. So what can the Luohan tree bring to Yizhi Temple and Yizhi Mountain? Fang Zheng had some small expectations.
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Monkey and Lone Wolf ran out immediately. Fang Zheng took out one or two pastries, one for each of them, as a reward for the two disciples to guard the courtyard.
Now that I have money, I can’t be too stingy…
The day passed so easily. In the evening, Fang Zheng was lying on the grass outside the temple, watching the sunset. The sky was dark and there was a faint flash of thunder. The twinkling ones were like a movie blockbuster, very shocking and very beautiful.
"Ding! Do you want to draw a lottery?" the system asked.
"No, save it. Either don't smoke, or smoke big if you want." Fang Zheng said.
"As you wish." The system disappeared.
At night, thunder and lightning flashed outside the temple, strong winds howled, and the strong wind blew the bodhi trees and bamboos with a crashing sound. Heavy rain poured down, and the ground crackled and exploded, as if firecrackers were set off during the festival.
Fangzheng, Red Boy, Squirrel, Monkey, and Lone Wolf moved a small mazaar and sat under the eaves, watching the rainstorm.
"Master, the wind is a bit cold." The monkey pulled his clothes.
The squirrel said: "The cold wind is coming, and my fur is starting to grow."
Fang Zheng nodded and said, "Tomorrow is the autumnal equinox. After the autumnal equinox, it rains and cools down."
"Master, what is the autumnal equinox?" the squirrel asked curiously.
"The autumnal equinox has two meanings. One is that the yin and yang of the sky and the earth are equally divided. On this day, the day is as long as the night and is divided into two. The other is that autumn is between the beginning of autumn and the beginning of winter. The middle of autumn is the autumnal equinox, which divides autumn into two parts. Number two is also the autumnal equinox. In short, starting from today, the hot weather is about to pass, and this land is about to change its clothes again!"
After Fang Zheng finished speaking, he stood up, stretched out and said, "Go to bed early and go down the mountain to eat delicious food tomorrow."
"What's delicious? Master, what's delicious?" As soon as he mentioned eating, the squirrel suddenly became energetic and his eyes were round.
The lone wolf lying there lazily also raised his head. Although he didn't say anything, his expression said everything. The monkey looked sideways and the red boy licked his lips. Obviously these guys are standard foodies!
Fang Zheng smiled helplessly and said: "Autumn is the harvest season. Many of the fruits we planted are ripe and ready to eat. Go down the mountain to pick some tomorrow."
Fang Zheng said it was a purchase, but he basically had no intention of spending any money. In fact, Fang Zheng was going down the mountain now. He really wanted to buy something but couldn't buy anything anymore. Whatever he wanted, the villagers would give it to him directly. Give money? Sorry, no one accepts it!
Fang Zheng is quite thick-skinned. He grew up eating hundreds of meals, but he really doesn't know what it means to be polite to the villagers. Since you don’t charge money, just take it! If you have nothing to do, just pray for the villagers. What's more, Fangzheng has indeed done a lot of work for Yizhi Village, such as cold bamboo, drought, rainfall, passing on carving skills, etc... All of these, it is normal to change some vegetables.
Of course, Fang Zheng also tried to plant some green vegetables on the edge of the crystal rice field as an experiment, but even with rootless clean water for watering, what Fang Zheng planted was crooked and cracked. Farming seems simple, but those who have never farmed before will understand how difficult it is only if they actually farm. Therefore, Fangzheng’s small vegetable garden has long been abandoned...
No matter how many disciples were drooling there, Fang Zheng went back to the meditation room.
Lying on the bed, Fang Zheng secretly vowed to learn to grow vegetables next year! No matter what, the best way is to deal with your own stomach.
"If you want to grow vegetables, it's best to grow them under the mountain." The system suddenly said.
Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment: "Why?" Then, Fang Zheng's eyes lit up and he said, "You mean those vegetables were not rotten by me, but... there was another reason?"
"If you plant ordinary vegetables next to the crystal rice field, how will these vegetables compete with the crystal rice and cold bamboo for nutrients? If they are not nutritious, they will naturally not be able to survive," the system said.
Fang Zheng slapped his forehead. He almost forgot about this. He really didn't pay attention. However, Fang Zheng was still a little puzzled and asked: "Having said that, why do those grasses and flowers grow so well?"
"Children from poor families have long been in charge. They have survived the survival of the fittest in nature, and naturally have their own way of survival. And your Qingcai is a pampered eldest lady, what do you think?" the system asked.
Fang Zheng was speechless...
The next day, when Fang Zheng walked out of the meditation room, he felt a gust of wind blowing. Fang Zheng, who had just gotten up, couldn't help but shudder. A yellow leaf fell and fell into Fang Zheng's hand.
Fang Zheng couldn't help but sigh: "It's autumn..."
