The Monk That Wanted To Renounce Asceticism - Chapter 1498
Chapter 1498: A Chicken Summons a Monk
“It’s open. The fee is fifty,” a bald man sitting at the village entrance said.
Fangzheng was instantly dumbfounded when he heard that. “You still need to pay for entry?”
The man walked over and pointed at the village. “The village’s road is built by the village. What’s wrong with accepting some entry fees? You either pay the money or take a detour.”
Fangzheng said, “Amitabha. Patron, This Penniless Monk is a monk. He doesn’t have money.”
“Heh… Don’t you blush when you lie? You don’t have money? Where did you get your car from? If you don’t have money, how are you going to pump the car with gas? Using alcohol?” The bald man laughed.
Fangzheng took out an alcohol bottle and handed it over. “It’s really running on alcohol.”
“No… Are you f**king kidding me? If you have money, give it to me. If not, scram!” The baldy was infuriated by Fangzheng’s actions.
Fangzheng felt helpless. Why was it that no one believed the truth?
At that moment, Fangzheng saw a sign on the road and frowned. “Patron, this road was built by the country, right?”
“I said the village built it. Aren’t you annoying? You either pay or scram. Do you understand?” the bald man said fiercely.
“Alright, I’ll take a detour then.”
With that said, Fangzheng patted the steering wheel and said, “Reverse…”
Scrapped Car grunted. There was no movement. He seemed to be asleep.
Fangzheng felt helpless as he continued patting the steering wheel. “Scrapped Car! Reverse!”
The sound of snoring could be heard from Scrapped Car…
Fangzheng looked at the bald man in embarrassment. The bald man looked at Fangzheng as though he was looking at a retard. He said, “Are you a retard or do you think I’m a retard? Your Scrapped Car is f**king voice controlled?”
Fangzheng said, “I don’t know how to drive.”
“If you don’t know how to drive, how did you drive here? Did the salted fish behind you drive here?” The bald man felt like he was going crazy. What kind of joker had he encountered today?
Fangzheng looked at Salted Fish behind him and said, “He might be better at driving than This Penniless Monk.”
The bald man said, “Scram!”
Fangzheng was rendered speechless. There was no way to communicate properly…
At that moment, a BMW drove over. The bald man’s eyes lit up immediately as he pointed at Fangzheng. “Be honest. Don’t look around!”
Fangzheng didn’t understand what he meant. He saw another man walk over. The man had a short, crew cut and wore baggy clothes due to the hot weather. The two reached out to stop the car.
Fangzheng heard the baldy say to the driver, “The fee for entering the village is 100.”
Fangzheng was rendered speechless. The price was priced at a whim.
“So expensive? Forget it, I’ll take a detour.” The BMW driver obviously didn’t want to pay the money, so he prepared to reverse the car.
At that moment, Fangzheng saw the crew-cut man walk behind the car. He took out a chicken from his baggy clothes and threw it behind the man’s car.
The baldy signaled for the other party to reverse the car…
The moment the BMW driver reversed, the crew-cut man shouted, “Stop! You crushed my chicken!”
Fangzheng couldn’t see where the chicken was from his angle, but he knew that chickens reacted quickly. If it was a normal chicken, it would have jumped on the crew-cut man’s head to roost the moment it was thrown out and the car reversed.
However, the chicken did not seem to run. This was a problem.
“Master, I think we met hooligans.” Salted Fish got up and looked behind him.
Fangzheng said, “Hooligans are good. I’ll go down and take a look.”
With that said, Fangzheng alighted.
The baldy also saw Fangzheng get out of the car, but he clearly didn’t have the time to bother with Fangzheng. After giving him a look to mind his own business, he said to the BMW driver, “Bro, you crushed my brother’s chicken.”
“How is that possible?” asked the BMW driver.
“Take a look yourself. Its legs are crushed,” said the bald man.
The BMW driver got out of the car and took a look. Sure enough, a chicken was lying behind the car’s wheel and its legs were broken…
“That’s impossible. If it was crushed by me, the chicken should be in front of the wheel. Yours is still behind,” said the BMW driver.
“What do you mean? Are you saying that we’re scamming you for money?” The man with the crew cut was unhappy. He raised his head and leaned forward with a ferocious expression, as though he was about to hit someone the next moment.
The BMW driver said, “I don’t mean anything else. I mean… I didn’t run over the chicken.”
“Who else could it be if it wasn’t you? I saw it clearly just now. You were the one who ran over it,” the man with the crew cut said fiercely.
The bald man took out a cigarette and lit it. As he smoked, he said, “Bro, it’s fine if you ran over it. Don’t deny it. My brother’s temper isn’t too good. But speaking of which, I don’t know if you ran over since I didn’t see it. But this chicken is really lame now… Why don’t you buy the chicken? It’s a real free-range chicken. You won’t lose out.”
The BMW driver looked at the baldy before looking at the crew-cut man. Clearly, he did not wish to cause trouble, so he asked, “How much?”
“500!” the crew cut man said.
“What? Five hundred? Is your chicken made of gold!” The BMW driver turned anxious.
“1,000!” The crew cut man immediately doubled the price.
“No… Aren’t you going to do something about your brother?” asked the BMW driver.
“1,500!” The man with the crew cut continued raising the price. At the same time, he took out a megaphone and shouted in the direction of the village. “Come out and take a look! An outsider has come to be a tyrant! He ran over our chicken and is refusing to pay! Can we let him leave?”
With that shout, a group of people suddenly ran out of the village. Some of them were holding pickaxes, while others were holding sickles. All of them surrounded the BMW.
Everyone shouted, “Ping Yuan, what happened?”
“Aiya, isn’t this your chicken? What happened to it?”
“Do you know how to drive? Do you believe that I will hit you?”
“Don’t bother saying anything else. Smash his car!”
“Yes! Smash!”
A group of people shouted and wanted to smash the car.
When the BMW driver heard that, he hurriedly shouted, “No, no, no… I really didn’t run it over.”
“If it wasn’t you, could it be us?” The man holding the pickaxe shouted.
“That’s right. If you don’t give an explanation today, don’t even think about leaving!”
“Yes!”
The group of people shouted as they approached. They raised their weapons and the pressure grew…
The BMW driver was so scared that his forehead was covered in sweat…
The bald man threw away the cigarette in his hand and said, “Bro, pay what’s needed. If it’s not enough, you won’t be able to leave.”
With that said, the bald man said to Ping Yuan, “Brother, he didn’t do it on purpose. It’s too much for you to raise it to 2,000 at once. It’s too much… Lower it… okay?”
Ping Yuan said indifferently, “1,000! Not one cent less!”
The bald man said to the driver, “I’ve tried my best. It’s up to you.”
The BMW driver said, “That’s too much… It’s just a chicken.”
The bald man nodded and threw away the cigarette butt in his hand. He took two steps back and said, “This isn’t about the chicken… I’ll call an ambulance for you later.”
As he spoke, the others had already surrounded him…
When the BMW driver saw this, he hurriedly shouted, “I’ll pay! Alright?”
The crowd stopped. Ping Yuan did not say a word as he extended his hand, indicating that he wanted the money.
The BMW driver was on the verge of tears, but what could he do? He could only take out his wallet…
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded. “That chicken seems to be crippled by you guys, right?”
