Chapter 193
A figure appeared not far from where Fangzheng recited the scriptures .
"The fool is actually reciting scriptures to the field . Does the recital make the seeds cold resistant?" Li Xueying looked at everything in front of her, speechless .
The seen was calming on the mind, truly picturesque .
Here one could see the hegemon of the world—man, a savage and wild carnivore—wolf . There was the adorable and tiny squirrel and the lively monkey . Together, it should have looked like a warzone yet the area was harmonious . With the sun behind them, the scenery no longer looked like that of the mortal world . It truly looked like a thing of art .
Li Xueying took out her cell phone and snapped a picture . She subconsciously wanted to share it on her WeChat Moments but stopped when she was asked to confirm .
Looking at the young monk and the few animals in front of her and then the tranquil monastery, she shook her head, "Why should a rare silence be disturbed by bustle?" With that, she tapped cancel .
She did not know that with that tap of hers, it made Fangzheng miss the chance of completing his mission, again . If Fangzheng had known he'd have likely burst out in tears . . .
Li Xueying walked in front of Fangzheng but he was not aware of her arrival . He continued his recital .
When Li Xueying heard the scriptures and saw the golden glow of the setting sun reflecting off the tiny paddy field onto Fangzheng's face, she sfelt as though she had seen Buddha . For some unknown reason, her mind calmed . She sat down, ignoring the mud or coldness . She sat there looking at Fangzheng, her eyes calm and peaceful . It was unknown what was on her mind, perhaps nothing . She liked the tranquil, relaxed feeling of not being disturbed and having to think .
It was unknown how long she sat, when Li Xueying felt an itch by her ankles she looked down and was stunned! She saw a few stalks of grass stabbing into her socks . When she moved away, she was astonished to discover that grass seemed to grow faster around her, or more precisely, around Fangzheng!
Li Xueying rubbed her eyes in disbelief . How was it possible? There was no way such a thing should be possible!
Li Xueying was an experienced person . Due to her acting and personal preferences, she had traveled the world . She visited many religious places, met countless monks and reverends but she had never seen someone as capable as Fangzheng .
"It has to be an illusion . Perhaps the grass grows faster here because of the water," thought Li Xueying . She made a mental note of the height of the nearby grass . She took out her cell phone and began recording . As she continued listening to the scripture, her messy thoughts slowly calmed down .
The sun set as the moon rose, scattering a silvery glow onto the mountain top .
A group of people arrived in the distance as well . Director Yu had returned with a group of the film crew . When they saw Li Xueying, they felt relieved . But they realized she was sitting there motionless, facing the young monk after coming back from dinner .
The monk was dressed in white and was illuminated by silvery moonlight . He had animals around him as he emitted a sacred glow . Anyone that saw it could not help but marvel .
Li Xueying was equally silent . She was dressed in black and sat opposite Fangzheng . The black and white formed a strong contrast . But for some reason, everyone felt that the extremely popular international superstar appeared smaller in stature when sitting in front of the young monk .
It was as though the young monk was Buddha and Li Xueying was one of the masses listening to His teachings . The feeling made most of them uncomfortable . How could their idol be lower in stature than someone else?
Someone wanted to call Li Xueying but was stopped by Director Yu . Finally, Xiaoliu brought a thick cushion over but when she went over, she also sat down and turned motionless .
