Chapter 878: 878
Each step Fangzheng took served to tense up Xi Liang's heart even more . Seeing that Fangzheng was about to vanish behind the door, an idea came to him as he yelled, "Master! Saving a life is better than building a seven-storied pagoda . There are countless people in the world who are gravely ill, some of them without money for treatment or even with untreatable illnesses . With your medical skills, don't you wish to do something for everyone? That would be a huge merit!"
Upon hearing the word 'merit,' Fangzheng came to a halt .
Perhaps Fangzheng knew the importance of merit better than anyone else in the world! With merit, one could nullify negative karma and increase one's light of providence . With merit, Fanzgheng could draw better prices . With merit, there was a chance for him to renounce asceticism!
At the same time, Xi Liang's words seemed to enlighten him, making him especially happy . Ever since he started teaching Lame Ma bamboo carving, Lame Ma in turn taught others . This resulted in many people becoming rich . As for Fangzheng, it only looked like it added to his fame, but in fact, Fangzheng received tons of merit from that!
The skills were his in the end . Anyone who relied on these skills to obtain bliss and money, such as people who escaped poverty as a result of them, would more or less give Fangzheng some merit . It wasn't a lot if you only looked at the merit he got from one person, but when accumulated, it was a sizable amount! Furthermore, once a school was set up, more people would be learning his skills, allowing the proliferation of his skills to increase . Fangzheng's merit would naturally be higher . It was a highly beneficial trade!
With this in mind, Fangzheng yearned to slap himself in the face . Why was he so stupid? How could he forget such a good method of earning merit? He even foolishly thought of the medical skills as nothing important .
Fangzheng immediately felt tempted .
However, Fangzheng still didn't turn back . He heard Red Boy say, "Master, some more people have come . However, the people that came now are weird . There's many middle-aged and elderly people . "
When Fangzheng heard that, his curiosity was instantly piqued . Mt . One Finger had scenic views, with visitors scaling the mountain nearly every day to take in the sights . However, Mt . One Finger was ultimately remote . The mountain path visitors needed to take couldn't compare with the main scenic spots . Compounded by the snow, it made the climb up the mountain even harder . It wasn't easy for the elderly to move around in the first place, and climbing a mountain was all the more difficult; furthermore, it was dangerous .
Therefore, almost no elder came up the mountain after it snowed . The people who came up were youths who enjoyed fun and adventure . There were some middle-aged people as well, but to hear that the group that had arrived consisted mostly of the middle-aged and elderly, Fangzheng was somewhat puzzled . What had happened?
When he turned his head, Fangzheng was stunned .
It wasn't only Fangzheng; Xi Liang was also dumbfounded .
Amid the cold winds, a group of middle-aged men and women, as well as elders, ran over . It was like they were in a hundred-meter race! The middle-aged men were still alright, but the women were running to the point of sending their shoes flying! As for the elders, they ignored their iced beards and were wholly unconcerned with their ages and bodies . The speed at which they were running made them look like they were flying .
However, what shocked Xi Liang the most was that these people were all dressed uniformly . They were all in white coats! The style was all too familiar to him . They were doctors! For so many doctors to run over, with many of them looking familiar, could it be…
Before Xi Liang could snap to his senses, Fangzheng had already arrived by the door . The people also ran to the door, standing in their spots as they stared at Fangzheng intently .
The ardor and zeal they displayed nearly made Lone Wolf jump forward to do his duties as guardian . Red Boy tugged at Fangzheng's trousers and said, "Master, what did you do? Why are so many crazy doctors coming for you?"
Fangzheng smacked him in the back of his head and pressed his palms together before saying to the crowd, "Amitabha . Patrons, don't be in a rush . It's still early . There's no need to rush when it comes to offering incense…"
