The Monk That Wanted To Renounce Asceticism

Chapter 1248: Choose a Good Tomb

Shao Gang said, “The times are changing, and people are changing too. The armed forces in the Golden Triangle have some connection with China’s past. However, there’s nothing much to say about it. Let’s talk about the present. You are in the territory of a general named Barrett.

“In the Golden Triangle, Barrett is not an important figure. He is unable to live here alone, so he cooperated with the Red Fiends. With their mutual cooperation, he is able to hold down this territory.

“Barrett is backed by a real general who is extremely powerful. He’s also famous in the Golden Triangle.

“I heard that Barrett wasn’t from the old powers back then, but an outsider. He used his incredible means and ruthless methods to take down this territory. For the sake of the territory, there’s nothing he doesn’t dare do. He has no principles, no humanity; as long as he is certain that someone is an enemy, he would slaughter them. Any threat is nipped in the bud. So people gave him a nickname, Butcher Bar.”

Fangzheng asked, “He intimidates by killing?”

Shao Gang nodded. “Yes, he intimidates by killing. That’s his management style. To outsiders, he’s a demon king. However, I can understand why he does so. The reason why he is able to have a foothold is because of the big shot behind him. But to really have a firm foothold here, it’s not enough to rely on the big shot. After all, there are many who have big shots backing them. The number of territories are limited. When there’s plenty of wolves and little meat, there’s a lot of potential for conflict.

“On the surface, there is no war, but there are many shady dealings.

“If Butcher Bar wants to keep his foothold, he needs to scare the rest.

“I heard that this defecting operation was triggered by another faction. Although they say they are leaving the Golden Triangle in name, it’s actually to run to the other party’s territory to plant poppies.

“If Butcher Bar couldn’t restrain them effectively, he would only see more people being poached. Death might even be a possibility.”

Fangzheng said, “No matter what the reason is, it’s not a reason to slaughter them. Bring This Penniless Monk over. No matter what, we cannot let them succeed!”

Shao Gang said in surprise, “Master, are you willing to help?”

“How can This Penniless Monk reject saving people?”

Shao Gang was overjoyed!

At this moment…

Someone came over.

Shao Gang and Fangzheng looked over and were stunned.

The person’s face was red and swollen, looking extremely fierce, as if he wanted to devour someone.

“Cyan Shirt?” Shao Gang grinned.

Cyan Shirt held a pistol in his hand. As he walked, he shouted, “Eccentric, you bastard! Come out here!”

Fangzheng looked at Shao Gang who chuckled and told him about how he had tricked him. Fangzheng was instantly rendered speechless when he heard that. He originally thought that the police were full of moral integrity, but this fellow in front of him had really warped morals!

Fang Zheng whispered into Shao Gang’s ear. Shao Gang smiled and said, “Fine! I’ll do it!”

With that said, Fangzheng dispelled A Golden Millet Dream’s concealment of Shao Gang. Immediately, Shao Gang appeared behind Cyan Shirt.

Shao Gang chuckled. “Cyan Shirt, what are you doing? I didn’t provoke you.”

Cyan Shirt suddenly turned his head and angrily shouted, “Eccentric, you know very well whether you have provoked me or not! How dare you plot against me? Are you tired of living?!”

As he spoke, Cyan Shirt pointed the gun at Eccentric’s head.

Eccentric wasn’t afraid. He grinned and said, “Cyan Shirt, you have to be reasonable? I was just mentioning it casually. How would I know that you would go steal a look. Now that you’ve become like this, you should blame it on curiosity. Why are you blaming me? It doesn’t make sense.”

Cyan Shirt said fiercely, “Do you believe that I’ll kill you? Who cares if it makes sense?”

Eccentric shrugged his shoulders and said, “We have to abide by the rules. Don’t act recklessly, alright? If you really think that it’s my fault, we can look for the Black Shirt and get him to play judge.”

Cyan Shirt said angrily, “Don’t you use Black Shirt against me! You are calling me unreasonable? Humph… don’t worry, I’m very reasonable. Eccentric left the camp and was attacked by an unknown enemy before he was found dead. What do you think of this report? I think it’s not bad.”

Eccentric said, “You really dare to kill me?”

Cyan Shirt said, “There’s nothing I wouldn’t dare do. Walk forward!”

Eccentric said, “I’m not leaving. Any further, you’ll shoot. Wouldn’t I die for no reason? If you shoot here, you’ll be discovered. When the time comes, you won’t be able to escape.”

Cyan Shirt silently took out a silencer and asked, “What do you have to say now?”

Eccentric: “How about you let me choose a place with good fengshui?”

“Sure, let’s go.”

Eccentric led the way as Cyan Shirt followed. Cyan Shirt did not know that there was a bald monk behind him.

Eccentric walked as he said, “I know a place. There’s ridges to the back and it faces water, an ideal environment. If one’s buried there, it should be pretty swell.”

Cyan Shirt sneered, “You’re thinking rather far ahead.”

Eccentric smiled and said, “In our line of work, who knows when we will die? I was just randomly thinking about it. But now, it seems like it’s a good idea to think about the tomb ahead of time. Otherwise, wouldn’t I just die in a random, crappy place today? So, there’s no harm in being prepared. Cyan Shirt, I’ll leave you a spot, so that we can be neighbors in the future?”

“Shut up!”

Eccentric pursed his lips and said, “Don’t be so fierce. We’re here. Look around, isn’t it good?”

“Not bad indeed, you can go without worries.”

Eccentric said, “Rest well.”

“What do you mean?”

Dong!

The back of Cyan Shirt’s neck hurt and he turned in anger. He saw a white-robed monk smiling brightly at him before saying apologetically, “I’m sorry. It’s the first time I’m knocking someone out. It went a bit askew. Why don’t you turn around and let This Penniless Monk try again?”

“I’ll kill…”

Dong!

The back of Cyan Shirt’s neck hurt once more. He rolled his eyes and fainted.

Eccentric waved his hand and said, “Master, your skills are lacking.”

Fangzheng chuckled. Probably only he knew the answer as to whether his skills were lacking or whether he did it deliberately.

Following that, Fangzheng took on Cyan Shirt’s appearance.

Eccentric praised, “Master, your divine power is great. If I had this divine power, I would have long settled everything.”

With that said, the two walked towards the camp. As they walked, Eccentric told Fangzheng about Cyan Shirt’s standing among the Red Fiend.

The leadership of the Red Fiends were the Nine Shirts. They wore nine different colors—white, red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, and black. Everyone had their own forces. Apart from Black Shirt, everyone else was of the same level. They were at odds with each other, but they also worked together.

Black Shirt managed the other eight Shirts. He virtually didn’t say anything on the Internet, but he was in charge of the Red Fiends. At the same time, he was also Holy Fiend—a spiritual symbol of the Red Fiends.

No man knew what Holy Fiend looked like. Needless to say, Eccentric didn’t know. After all, he had never seen the true appearance of Holy Fiend before.

Fangzheng said, “Then let’s take a look. Let’s go!”
