Chapter 1333: What a Good Hat

Salted Fish immediately said, “This is my brother!”

Fangzheng rolled his eyes at him. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Squirrel excitedly waving a tiny bag of Brazilian pine nuts that looked delicious. He exclaimed, “Wow! My pine nuts are here too! Look, it looks really delicious!”

“Is that so? I’ll help you take a look.” Monkey sneakily went forward.

Squirrel immediately hid the pine nuts behind his back and said, “I’m not showing you. It will be gone if I do!”

Just as he said that, Red Boy, who had been standing behind Squirrel all this while, extended his hand and pulled the pine nuts away. He threw them to the ground and Lone Wolf sat on it. He looked at the others as though he was an outsider.

“Ah! Junior Brother, you stole my pine nuts!” Squirrel exclaimed.

Red Boy said with an innocent look, “No, look. My hands are empty. Don’t tell me you think that there’s something hidden in the dudou?”

Squirrel was indignant. He ran over and pulled the dudou open. There was indeed nothing inside.

Red Boy shrugged. “Look, there’s nothing. I’m innocent.”

“What about my pine nuts?” Squirrel asked anxiously.

Red Boy said, “I saw your pine nuts fly up into the sky and then vanish.”

“How is that possible?” Squirrel asked in disbelief.

Monkey added, “I saw it too. It flew very quickly.”

Salted Fish said, “It transformed into a beam of light. Its speed is even faster than your fourth junior brother’s. You might not have bought an ordinary bag of pine nuts, but a spirit version.”

Lone Wolf yawned and said, “Don’t look at me. I just yawned and didn’t see anything.”

Squirrel indignantly flipped through the Monkey’s monk robes nearby. There was nothing.

When Squirrel saw this, he cried out sadly. “Master… My pine nuts ran off… Waaah!”

“So sad?” asked Fangzheng.

Squirrel said, “Yes, I’m sad.”

“Are you so sad that you can’t eat?” asked Fangzheng.

When Squirrel heard that, he immediately stood rooted to the ground, thinking about whether he should eat.

In the end, Squirrel cried again. He turned around and ran home. As he ran, he said, “I’m not eating. My pine nuts… Waaah!”

Upon seeing this scene, the disciples exchanged looks. Finally, Lone Wolf stood up and Monkey took out the pine nuts before obediently sending it to Squirrel.

Not long after, Monkey said in the front yard, “Your pine nuts spirit flew back again. Do you still want it?”

“Yes!” Squirrel shouted in excitement.

Then, the pair returned happily.

Fangzheng was rendered speechless by Squirrel’s carefree mind.

Wasn’t he crying so hard just now?

Isn’t he a little too easy to please?

…

“Master, we have also bought you a gift,” said Red Boy.

Fangzheng said in surprise, “There’s something for This Penniless Monk?”

Red Boy pointed at the last box that had not been opened and said with a smile, “That’s right. Master, guess what’s inside?”

Lone Wolf added, “That’s right. Master, guess.”

Salted Fish chuckled and said, “Inside is something we carefully selected.”

“No, I chose it!” Squirrel shouted immediately when he saw that Salted Fish was trying to steal credit.

Red Boy said, “I was the one who chose it. The rest of you just provided suggestions, alright?”

Monkey sighed. “Let’s not fight about it. I’m not saying anything despite picking it.”

Lone Wolf said, “As eldest senior brother, I need to stand on the side of justice. Master, don’t listen to their nonsense. Actually, I was the one who did everything.”

Fangzheng was rendered speechless when he saw them trying to steal credit. However, he felt warm inside. Hence, he said, “Alright, alright. Bring it over. Let me see what it is.”

“Master, make a guess. It’s more interesting to guess,” Salted Fish chuckled.

Fangzheng was considering whether he should make a guess.

Squirrel carried the box and ran towards Fangzheng. Then, he said as though he was presenting a treasure, “Master, can you guess if it’s a hat?”

The moment that was said, Lone Wolf, Monkey, Red Boy, and Salted Fish covered their faces. This dumb kid!

Fangzheng laughed out loud. “I guess it must be a hat.”

Squirrel said with admiration, “Wow, Master, you’re amazing!”

Upon seeing the little guy’s reverent gaze, Fangzheng felt a little light-headed… He patted Squirrel on the head in satisfaction. “You’re the best.”

Lone Wolf, Monkey, Red Boy, and Salted Fish were dumbfounded when they saw this. One could bootlick like this?

Fangzheng ignored them and quickly opened the box. Ever since he became a monk, Fangzheng had never worn a hat. He also wanted to see what kind of hat his disciples had carefully selected for him.

When the box was opened, the other fellows came over and waited nervously.

Fangzheng took out the hat from the box and said with a smile, “It’s still a knitted hat. Not bad.”

However, Fangzheng’s smile froze when he saw the hat!

“Who bought this?” Fangzheng asked with a black face as he looked at the green hat in his hand.

“Holy sh*t… Why is it green?” Salted Fish’s chin nearly fell to the ground.

Upon hearing Fangzheng’s question, Red Boy immediately looked up at the skies. “Aiyah, the sky is really blue today.”

Monkey immediately turned around and walked out with his hands behind his back. “Master, in fact, I was just an adviser. Yes, the final decision was none of my business.”

Lone Wolf immediately said, “Master, you know that I only have paws. I don’t have hands. Therefore, I definitely couldn’t do something so difficult like controlling a cell phone.”

Salted Fish said, “Master, I only have fins. It’s difficult to do anything with them. Besides, I’m most junior. I don’t have any authority.”

Although Squirrel was silly and adorable, he wasn’t stupid. Just a moment ago, everyone was fighting for credit. In the next moment, they had collectively gone back on their word. There was definitely something fishy going on here.

Therefore, Squirrel shouted, “Master, it’s even more impossible for me. I’m so tiny. I can’t use a cell phone.”

Fangzheng silently picked up the pole beside him and said, “None of you need to speak any further. Don’t even think of running today. Ata!”

“Run!” Red Boy yelled as the others fled!

Squirrel jumped onto Lone Wolf’s back and Lone Wolf charged out.

Instantly, chaos broke out in the backyard.

When the devotees in the front yard heard how lively the backyard was, they all wanted to take a look. However, when they saw the signboard outside the backyard, they held back and followed One Finger Monastery’s rules.

This was One Finger Monastery. Fangzheng was deeply respected by the people so they also respected Fangzheng’s rules.

After a while, the group finally quietened down.”

Red Boy said, “I clearly chose blue. Why did it turn green? What a scam!”

Squirrel added, “That’s right. What happened to the blue hat we chose?”
