The Monk That Wanted To Renounce Asceticism

Panda Novel

There was a tiny door by the side that the two entered in a line. Fangzheng originally wanted to follow, but the moment the two entered, they closed the door. When Fangzheng saw this, he could only jump over the two-meter-tall wall.

It wasn’t that Fangzheng had some alacrity skill, but with his brute strength, jumping a few meters high wasn’t a problem.

Fangzheng stayed on the wall and happened to see three vans parked in the yard. In front of one van stood a person who was changing the license plate for the van. Drivers got into the other two vans. The moment the main door opened, the two vans left.

Not long after, the third van also left after it had its car plate switched…

Further in, there was a row of two-story houses. There were blankets hanging outside. Some people were playing chess while others were chatting. There was also a hand-held tractor in the yard and some old hens were pecking on the ground. It really looked like an ordinary farm house.

But there were too many people…

“Brother Xi, did you throw it far?” a young man on the second floor asked.

“It’s thrown far away. In the trash can outside the village. Who would rummage through that kind of place. Besides, even if they find it, we can just not admit it. Who can say that we threw it there? We wore gloves and didn’t leave any fingerprints. What can they do?” Brother Xi said, unfazed.

“Heh heh, Brother Xi is really thoughtful.” The young man gave him a thumbs up and praised him.

“Alright, the vans have already been driven out. From now on, we are all farmers. You are my friends who came to visit. Do you understand?” Brother Xi shouted.

“Got it!” the two people playing Chinese Chess and the young people answered.

Brother Xi nodded in satisfaction and asked, “How’s the backyard?”

“It’s all cleaned up. Now, whoever looks at it will only see an abandoned shed. Other things have just been taken away by the van…” said the young man.

At this moment, the middle-aged man who was playing chess smiled and said, “Xi is still smart. He knows to let Da Xiong open a shop outside the police station. Regardless of whether he earns money with that shop, someone will watch the police station. As long as someone comes out, we will stop work and distribute our equipment. No matter what happens, safety first… We will resume work three days later. Although it will be less profitable, it’s still safe!”

Brother Xi laughed out loud. “Second Uncle, look at what you’re saying… I’m just being prepared.”

When Fangzheng heard this, he basically understood that it was an imitation factory. Although it wasn’t large in scale, these people were very careful. As long as there were any stirrings, they would immediately dismantle everything and scatter it in all directions, making it impossible to find evidence against them.

If they were always this careful, it would not be easy for the police to do anything to them. But now…

“Can you blame This Penniless Monk? This Penniless Monk is really just passing by,” Fangzheng scratched his nose and said innocently.

Then, Fangzheng did not leave. He sat on the wall and picked up the phone to call the police.

“Hello there, police officer. Someone in our village is blending alcohol to make imitation liquor. Are you going to do something about it?” Fangzheng asked.

“Making imitation liquor is illegal, so we’re in charge of this matter. May I ask where the exact location of your village is?” A female policeman’s voice sounded from the phone.

The voice was very nice, but Fangzheng didn’t want to listen too much. He looked up at the village signboard at the village entrance in the distance. Most people might not be able to see it clearly, but Fangzheng could. Hence, he said, “Doorfront Village, 3-16. There’s a person named Brother Xi running a syndicate of making fake liquor.

“Don’t be in a hurry to answer. Listen to me.

“They have a shop at the entrance of your police station. The boss of the shop is called Da Xiong. He keeps an eye on you all day. Once the police come out, regardless of whether they are here for them or not, they immediately dismantle the machine and hide everything…

“So it isn’t easy to arrest them…

“Didn’t you guys answer a call today? They have scattered the equipment in three vans.

“The license plates of the three vans are ****, ****, and ****. Take a look and see if you can intercept them together and then wipe out their headquarters. Oh right, a portion of the industrial alcohol that they used to blend with imitation liquor has been thrown into a trash can at the village entrance. I’ll have to trouble you guys to fish it out later…”

Clearly, the female police officer had never received such a detailed report. She was stunned by Fangzheng’s detailed instructions…

Imagining that she had hung up, Fangzheng asked, “Are you still there?”

“Oh, I’m still here. Could you please repeat the address and car plate numbers?”

Fangzheng was rendered speechless, but he repeated it again. Finally, he did not forget to say, “Your professionalism needs to be improved, Comrade.”

The female police officer was rendered speechless again… It was the first time she had received such a comment by someone who called for the police…

After Fangzheng said that, he hung up the phone and was in no hurry to leave. He sat on the wall and chuckled as he looked at the imitation peddlers.

At the same time, the female officer immediately reported it to her superior…

Ten minutes later, outside a tobacco and wine shop at the entrance of the police station, a bare-chested man was suddenly surrounded by two policemen as he smoked and played with his phone.

“Officer, how may I help you? Are you buying cigarettes or some wine?” asked the man.

“Da Xiong, come with us,” said the policeman.

When the man heard that, he jumped up and ran. However, he was grabbed by two policemen and pressed to the ground.

Half an hour later.

The three cars split up and left. The vans and drivers that were parked everywhere were all arrested…

At the same time, a group of policemen had already reached the village entrance…

And in this half an hour, Fangzheng waited anxiously. As he was wondering why the police weren’t here, he jumped off the wall and entered the yard.

Brother Xi’s second uncle and third uncle were playing cards. The young man, Xu Nian, stood behind Second Uncle, munching on melon seeds as he watched the fun.

Fangzheng walked over, looked at Xu Nian, then at Second Uncle, and then at Third Uncle… He stroked his chin and raised his hand to slap one of them!

Smack!

Second Uncle was slapped onto the table…

Xu Nian was stunned…

Third Uncle was also stunned. He said angrily, “Xu Nian, what are you doing?”

Xu Nian was dumbfounded. “I… didn’t do anything.”

“Aiya… F*ck… Xu Nian, you’re really ruthless!” Second Uncle rubbed the back of his head and angrily stood up to stare at Xu Nian.

Xu Nian said in a sobbing tone, “Second Uncle, it really wasn’t me. I was just eating melon seeds… I didn’t do anything.”

“You didn’t do anything? Who hit me? Is there anyone else here?” Second Uncle furiously raised his hand and slapped him!

The melon seeds in Xu Nian’s mouth were sent flying…

However, Xu Nian dared not make a sound. After all, Second Uncle was Brother Xi’s second uncle. He was just a lackey who followed Brother Xi.

Xu Nian looked wronged and could not redress himself. At the same time, he felt a chill in his heart… He knew very well that he hadn’t made a move, but Second Uncle was suddenly hit… Was it a ghost?
