After saying that, Fang Zheng turned around and left...
"Isn't it? You haven't eaten for three days?" A few little guys suddenly went crazy. You looked at me and I looked at you. They were as anxious as ants on a hot pot. They were killing wolves, monkeys, and squirrels. , but also to catch up with the rhythm of a big monster!
The monkey couldn't hold it back and asked: "Master, are you sure you are doing inedia and not subduing demons?"
Fang Zheng turned around and smiled slightly: "A demon? That's right. Recently, there have been more lying demons and gluttonous demons in our temple. Let's take the opportunity to starve them to death!"
When the words came to this point, a few little things understood instantly that this was seen through by Thief Bald!
The squirrel jumped down and asked in a low voice: "Senior brother, junior brother, are we still performing?"
"It's such a crappy act, you're being fooled! If you continue to act, you'll really starve to death." Red Boy scolded, and then complained: "You guys have such flaws on your faces, eh..."
"How can you blame us? I'm very tired when I inhale and shrink my belly, okay?" Squirrel said aggrievedly.
"Okay, now is not the time to talk about this. I think we should do something?" Monkey said.
"What to do?" asked the squirrel.
"Apologise!" said the monkey.
"Apologise? This is absolutely impossible!" Lone Wolf suddenly stood up, held his head high and said, "I am the great Wolf King! I have my pride! How can I apologize? This does not exist!"
Gululu…
At this time, the lone wolf's stomach growled in protest.
Then Lone Wolf ignored him and strode towards Fangzheng's meditation room.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Squirrel asked.
Monkey said: "Isn't he just confused and wants to argue with the master?"
Hong Hai'er said: "If he dares to argue with Master for more than an hour, I will respect him as a man!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lone Wolf suddenly lay down at the door of Fangzheng's meditation room, wailing: "Master, I was wrong, I shouldn't have lied... You know me, I don't have a very bright mind, and I don't have that many tricks up my sleeve." It's what they think, it has nothing to do with me..."
"I'm a fool!" Red Boy, Monkey, and Squirrel, who were originally full of expectations, cursed in unison. They never expected that the big stupid dog who usually looks a bit stupid and is loyal but stupid would suddenly make such a collective move. Sell teammates! Several guys immediately added: "Shameless!"
Then several guys looked at each other, and the next moment, whether they were long-legged or short-legged, they all took steps, ran over, knelt down and kowtowed one by one, and then shouted in unison: "Master, this is all It's senior brother's idea, it has nothing to do with us! If senior brother doesn't nod, who dares to take the lead!" Then they collectively pointed at the lone wolf!
The lone wolf, who was a little proud just now and thought he was extremely smart, was instantly confused. This was the time when he was going to be accused of calling the wolf a dog!
"Today's dinner for you guys is cancelled!" Fang Zheng's voice came from the meditation room, with a bit of sternness in his voice. The guys suddenly shrank and scattered like eggplants beaten by frost, complaining to each other as they walked.
"I told you earlier, don't be mean. In fact, if we open our mouths and ask for it, we might be able to get more." The squirrel touched its belly. It originally sucked in the air, but now it seemed that it was really hungry.
"I told you before, you have to be clever when playing tricks. You guys don't know how to act. Hey... no wonder you get me wrong every time you lie." Hong Boyer shook his head and said, extremely disappointed with these senior brothers.
Lone Wolf glanced at the two guys and said, "I think Master is not only angry because of this."
The monkey said: "Master is angry?"
Lone Wolf nodded and said: "Yes, I can feel it. Usually he only teases us a little bit, but this time he is really angry. Have we gone too far?"
"We just want to eat more, right?" Squirrel said.
Hong Hai'er said: "It should be more than that... He is not that stingy. He would have just tricked us on the spot. What does it mean to be sulking after closing the door this time?"
The monkey spread his hands to show that he didn't understand.
That night, Fang Zheng really didn't come out. The monkey asked secretly, but Fang Zheng ignored him. Honghai'er sent Fangzheng a piece of bamboo shoots, but Fangzheng didn't eat them either...
Fangzheng refused to eat, and the temple's anger suddenly became a little tense.
The lone wolf stopped eating at first, and the monkey refused to eat at a glance. The red boy thought about whether to eat it. The squirrel held a pine nut and looked at the lone wolf, then at the monkey, and finally at the red boy. He took it several times. He picked it up and put it to his mouth and then put it down. Finally, he put it down and went back to his nest to sleep. At the same time, he muttered: "I won't be hungry when I fall asleep... When I wake up tomorrow, Master will not be angry."
The next day, it was still dark, Fang Zheng felt his belly. He didn't eat at night, but he was still hungry.
But Fang Zheng has no regrets. The behavior of these disciples yesterday really made him angry! As for why, Fang Zheng didn't want to say it, he just let a few little things think about it and reflect on it.
After pushing open the door, Fang Zheng was stunned.
From left to right, four little things, the lone wolf, the squirrel, the monkey, and the red boy, were lined up, either squatting or standing, waiting for him pitifully at the door.
Fang Zheng glanced at the squirrel's belly. It was rising and falling. It was obvious that it had stopped breathing. Its belly was also quite deflated. It seemed that it was starving. Looking at these little things, Fang Zheng also felt distressed. This reminded him of Zen Master Yi Zhi. What did Zen Master Yi Zhi do when he made a mistake
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng suddenly smiled.
Seeing Fang Zheng smiling, several little guys heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. The clouds were finally clearing. It was not a waste of time to get up this early!
Fang Zheng then said: "Jing Xin, go boil some water and eat dumplings this morning."
When Hong Boy heard this, he immediately became happy and almost jumped up. He stopped being lazy and refused to shirk. He responded and ran into the kitchen.
The lone wolf, monkey, and squirrel immediately looked at Fang Zheng nervously, each with a little excitement.
Fang Zheng smiled and said: "Jingfa and Jingkuan go and prepare more firewood. Jingzhen, I'm going to ring the bells and drums with my master."
As Fang Zheng's order was issued, the three little guys, for the first time in history, executed it without any delay. They all looked happy, which made Fang Zheng feel relieved. Opening the gate of the temple, walking on the Naihe Bridge, looking at the clouds and mist pouring out of the Tianlong Pond, he vaguely seemed to see a Zen master smiling and nodding to him in the Tianlong Pond.
Seeing this, Fang Zheng also showed a smile and said to himself: "Master said that revenge is on the spot, and you can't stay angry overnight. On the new day, you should erase the old unhappiness, so that you can have a good mood every day. Disciples make mistakes and cannot be caught. Whether they hold on to it, punish it, or get angry, the purpose is just to make them realize that they are wrong and that they can correct their mistakes. As long as the goal is achieved, why bother with it to the end? It is better to bring sunshine and happiness to someone than to bring others People who are surrounded by dark clouds are more popular and respected. Now it seems that this is indeed the case... "
The monkeys rang the bells and Fang Zheng beat the drums. However, on this day, the sun did not rise. Instead, dark clouds pressed over the sky. When the north wind blew, a large piece of white stuff fell from the sky.
