The Monk That Wanted To Renounce Asceticism - Chapter 286

Chapter 286: 286


"Formless Door: When others open it, it is an ordinary door . When you open it, however, it will randomly open up a formless space . Once you step through, you will appear anywhere in the world . Of course, if you dislike it, I can take it away . "

"Not at all!" Fangzheng's heart palpitated when he heard that, and he shouted out . He could appear anywhere in the world by stepping through the door? Wasn't this a spatial door that allowed teleportation? This was basically the best traveling tool! Even if his destination was random, it was better than staying cooped up in Mt . One Finger, right?

"It's good you do not dislike it . I'll be taking away that crappy door of yours . You don't benefit from it anyway . In addition, I should remind you that the Formless Door is not used for nothing . There are missions attached . "

"There are missions?" With the Formless Door, he naturally did not care for the original door . But what the heck were those missions?

"Every time you activate the Formless Door, it will choose a mission for you . Without fail, there will be a mission waiting for you to complete it wherever you appear . As long as you finish the corresponding mission, the Formless Door will allow you to return . If not, you can walk back alone . "

Fangzheng smiled without a care . He never spurned having too many System missions! It was equivalent to free merit . He might as well take it!

With Jing Yan and Li Xueying helping Qin Xiao secretly, her living standards rapidly improved . Perhaps it was due to the change in her standard of living, her mood turned for the better . Qin Xiao once again found the reason to live on . She began working hard and standing up and gradually, she could actually stand!

As for Li Xueying's help, it was only temporary . Nonetheless, through her diligent studies, Qin Xiao finally managed to learn how to operate an online store, a good one at that . She no longer used photos provided by her neighbors . She learned photography, Photoshop, web design, etc . by herself . This resulted in thriving sales as her days got better .

One day, Fangzheng received Qin Jun's call . After they chatted for a long while, Qin Jun chuckled, "Thank you, Fake Daddy . Mommy finally doesn't cry daily anymore . "

Fangzheng was taken aback before he smiled wryly . He believed he had been fooling the child, but after all this while, it turned out the little guy was the one fooling him .

Fangzheng still asked out of curiosity, "Since when have you known of it?"

"Sorry, I… I always knew . "

"Then why did you do that?"

"My father has always been living in my heart . Although Mommy did not say so, I knew… I cannot have a father beside me, but Mommy can't not have Daddy . I wanted her to stand up again . I know what I did was not right . I was only giving it a try…"

Fangzheng could not help but smile wryly in his heart . He thought that it was all a result of his hard work, but he never imagined that all of it had been planned by this little kid . It wasn't surprising . A five-year-old like him should have known quite a lot, yet he had made such a seemingly silly mistake? Would he really not be able to tell his father's voice? And he had remained adamant despite being rejected once, then twice and so on .

Fangzheng did not bother pursuing the details . It was sufficient as long as the family could walk out of its darkest days .



However, Qin Jun would still call Fangzheng occasionally . He would talk about school, how he made games with his friends and learned singing .

Fangzheng found it quite interesting to listen to the stories .

However, his peaceful days quickly came to an end . As the news spread that the mountain path had been fixed, with there being better, more beautiful and delicious bamboo at the mountain peak, many people began visiting the mountain . However, they were not there to offer incense and pay their respects to Buddha . Instead, they brought hoes and baskets to dig the bamboo shoots!

Although the bamboo forest and the mountain were Fangzheng's, he did not have any intention of stopping them . After all, these people were villagers from nearby . They were not greedy . They dug up one or two for their own consumption .

With the passage of time, the news of the delicious Frost Bamboo shoots spread like wildfire . More and more people came!

At the foot of the mountain, a land rover came to a stop . A family alighted as a man carried a huge gunny sack behind him . He cupped his eyes and looked at the mountaintop . "Hehe, this mountain is quite tall . "

"That's right . It's here . Second Aunt said that the bamboo was dug from the mountaintop . Look, those villagers are all carrying baskets and hoes . They are likely going up the mountain to dig for bamboo shoots . " The man's wife was tall and a little burly . However, she had a regular face with her eyes a little hung up, looking like someone who enjoyed petty gains .

The man was not short . He was 185cm, and his body was even more built . The family wore nice clothes and clearly, they were not poor .



"This place is not bad . Hehe, these villagers are really foolish . To think they only get a tiny bit of such delicious bamboo shoots . I'll let them know what it means to have combat strength!" The man smiled as he shook the snake-skinned bag in his hand .

"I want many bamboo shoots!" Their child was a little fatso . His face was flushed red from clear excitement .

The family had already set off while speaking . On the way, they met several villagers . However, all of them had only dug one or two bamboo shoots to be used for cooking . No one took too many .

"These people are seriously foolish," mocked a woman as she looked at the villagers .

"That's right . If not for our house being a distance away, I would dig an entire car's worth to sell them . I would definitely make a killing selling them! These are the best bamboo shoots I have ever eaten . As long as they're fried properly, it's not impossible to sell them at an expensive price," said the man .

"Enough, Old Zhou . All you know is to brag . If you get too much, you might not even be able to carry it down," joked the woman .

"Do you think my muscles are for nothing?" Zhou Wu said as he curled his mouth .

The woman was Zhou Wu's wife, named Ge Yan . Their child's name was Zhou Wenwu, a name that meant being adept with both the pen and the sword . Zhou Wu had given the child the name to make him unlike him who was only a boor .



The family went up Mt . One Finger . Zhou Wu spotted the distant bamboo forest from a distance away . The lush green bamboo forest shone with emerald-green light under the sun's illumination, making it look like an otherworldly paradise .

"What beautiful bamboo . No, I have to take a few pictures . I'll take someone along to chop them to be used for decoration next time," said Zhou Wu .

"I think so too, but I heard that this bamboo forest belongs to the monastery . You probably need to ask for its permission if you want to chop at it," said Ge Yan .

Zhou Wu said disparagingly, "Why would permission be needed . He's a monk . What does he need so much bamboo for? Besides, can he stop me if I want to chop the bamboo?"

Ge Yan thought about it and felt that that was indeed the case . She did not speak any further .

The family ran to the bamboo forest and brandished their farming tools, pulling up one bamboo shoot after another . It was nothing at first but soon, their actions caused unhappiness among the villagers . Zhou Wu dug up a bamboo shoot and after taking a look at it, he said in disdain, "It's too small!"

Then, he threw it away and continued digging .

"This is too big . It's probably too old and not delicious . I don't want it!" He threw it again!

And he dug again…
