Red Boy was rendered speechless. Scrounge a meal? How could that be easy?
As they flew, Red Boy suddenly pointed at a building below. Master, there are so many people down there. There are also so many cars.
Fangzheng looked down and said, Could it be someone holding a wedding? If thats the case, there will definitely be food.
Red Boys eyes lit up. Are we pretending to be relatives from the grooms side or the brides side?
Fangzheng grinned. It was obvious what he meant. Lets do it!
Therefore, Red Boy lowered the cloud. When the two came close to take a look, they were disappointed. It wasnt a wedding but a grand event. The two of them didnt know what it was exactly, but when they heard the people beside them speak, they gained some understanding.
This was a touring exhibition of Chinese calligraphy.
Fangzhengs interest was piqued when he heard that. Although his Dragon Buddha Epithet had been taken back, skills he had learned were retained. What was retracted was the augmented effect. His skills remained. Therefore, Fangzheng could continue making tables, chairs, and various high-tech trinkets. He could still produce the Dragon Buddha Epithet.
Master, theres no food here. Lets change places. Red Boy rubbed his belly.
Fangzheng looked at the sky. It was almost dark. Furthermore, the exhibition hall had only just been set up. Most of the people at the entrance were just there to join in the fun. If they wanted to enter, it would probably be tomorrow.
Therefore, the most important thing now was to eat!
However, it was hard to earn a living when out, especially in foreign lands in which they didnt know much about. Getting free food was difficult
The master and disciple had no better solution. Hence, Fangzheng brought Red Boy to a bench by the roadside and watched a bakery quietly.
Red Boy said, Master, are we just going to watch?
Fangzheng said, Yea, lets watch it for a while. Perhaps we will end up being full.
Red Boy:
Just as the two sat there in a daze, Red Boy suddenly realized that there was a box on the bench! He opened it out of curiosity and was instantly stunned. He exclaimed, Master!
Fangzheng was taken aback as he asked, Whats wrong?
Red Boy picked up the box and exclaimed in surprise, Theres money inside!
Fangzheng immediately turned excited when he heard that. Money? He hurriedly went over to take a look. Indeed, there were three 100 notes in the box!
Red Boy laughed out loud. Master, it looks like the heavens dont want us to starve to death. It gave us money! If we have money, lets buy bread?
Fangzheng thought for a moment and shook his head. If the money is in a box and the box is placed on the bench, someone might have accidentally left it here. Leave it here first. Lets wait Who knows, the person who lost it might come back. 300 isnt a small number here. The person who lost the money should be very anxious.
Red Boy said bitterly, Master, we are almost starving to death. Cant you go easy?
Fangzheng shook his head. We havent starved to death yet Lets talk about it when we do.
Red Boy rolled his eyes. Lets talk about when we starve to death? What else can we say when we are dead?
Fangzheng stroked Red Boys head and said, How about this? Well wait until the shop is almost about to close. If no one comes back for it, Ill agree to you using a portion of the money to buy two loaves of bread. How about that? Well take it as the payment for watching over the item. How about that?
Red Boys eyes lit up when he heard that. He nodded immediately and shouted, Alright!
At the same time, Red Boy silently prayed that the person who lost the money would not return. Please dont return
Time ticked by, and it was unknown how many pedestrians walked by. Every time someone came or looked over, Red Boys heart would beat wildly with a worried look on his face
However, he still obeyed Fangzheng. He placed the box in front of him at a conspicuous spot, hoping to attract the attention of the owner.
Master, you and I can hear your heartbeat. You seem more nervous than me, Red Boy whispered.
Fangzheng grunted. Nonsense. Who wants to starve if they can get something to eat?
Then why dont you just leave with the money? No one saw it anyway. We can buy some food and can even find a place to stay for the night. How comfortable would that be Red Boy mumbled.
Fangzheng raised his hand and rapped him on the head. People have to be a little determined in life. If one goes with the flow and has no bottom line when one encounters difficulties, they wont be humans.
Red Boy subconsciously asked, What would they be?
Fangzheng said, A wild beast that follows the smell upon catching a whiff, one that doesnt have any bottom line. Jingxin, being hungry and suffering is also a part of cultivation. If you arent hungry, you wont know how helpless and painful it is to be tormented by hunger in the mortal world.
Red Boy fell silent.
By ten at night, the bakery opposite had already started to shutter. There were fewer and fewer people on the streets. Red Boy said nervously, Master
Fangzheng nodded and said, Go ahead. Buy cheap ones and something thats filling. Dont pick the good-looking ones.
Red Boy nodded and hugged the box. He happily ran off.
Child, what would you like to buy? The shop assistant was a European middle-aged woman. Her white hair made her look spirited. When she saw the adorable Red Boy running over with a box in his hands, she put down the things she was packing and asked with a chuckle.
I want to buy huge, huge, huge, huge, huge loaves of bread. The cheaper it is, the better. Red Boy knew very well that when unable to use divine powers, the only way he could earn benefits was to act cute! Besides, he was born cute. Wouldnt it be a pity if he did not do it?
The woman was amused when she heard that. You want huge, huge, huge, huge, huge loaves of bread? And the cheapest one? But that kind of bread doesnt taste good. Theres no fruits or cream. You wont like it. Why dont I recommend you something else?
Red Boy decisively shook his head. He was starving to the point of no return. He wasnt picky with his food, nor did he want to waste any time. All he wanted to do was to eat as soon as possible. However, the womans words successfully made him salivate. He wiped his drool and glanced at the beautiful cakes and fruits. He shook his head and said, No, I want a huge one, a huge, huge one. The cheaper the better.
With that said, Red Boy tiptoed and placed the box on the table.
The woman smiled helplessly and said, Alright, Ill give you the biggest one, and its only 2.
With that said, the woman found two very long loaves of bread from behind. Just as she said, the bread did not have any extra decorations, fruits, or cream. However, Red Boy did not mind. He nearly drooled. He hurriedly took it and opened the box. Auntie, look at how much I need to pay you. Take it yourself.
When the woman saw that there were three 100 bills in the box, she said in surprise, Child, youre very rich. Why did you buy the cheapest bread? You can spend a little more and buy very delicious bread.
