Urban Immortal Cultivation Supreme

Chapter 167 A Monk Coming to Ask for Money



"Haha, if that's the case, then I, Zhu Bufan, will no longer hold back."

He sat back down, Zhu Bufan chuckled without showing any signs of emotion.

At this moment, Zhu Bufan did not know the reason why Dongfang Weimei had arranged this meeting with him.

What exactly was her purpose?

Therefore, at this moment, all Zhu Bufan could do was to silently observe.

"Hehe, this tea was originally brewed for you, Young Master Zhu, so you don't need to be polite with me."

Zhu Bufan laughed heartily, while Dongfang Weimei just lightly chuckled before speaking.

At this time, hearing this beautiful woman, Dongfang Weimei, speak in such a manner, Zhu Bufan chose not to respond to her words.

At this moment, Zhu Bufan quietly began to savor the tea.

"Young Master Zhu, is the tea to your liking?"

At this time, seeing that Zhu Bufan did not respond to her, Dongfang Weimei did not rush him and instead asked casually.

"Haha, not bad, this is indeed fine tea. Sadly, I am someone who doesn't understand tea; you're wasting it on me."

"Hehe, it doesn't matter! Young Master Zhu, don't you want to ask me why I invited you here? Aren't you curious about which family the person you just offended belongs to and why someone from that family would bother your brother?"

"Haha, if Miss Dongfang wishes to tell me, even if I don't ask, I believe Miss Dongfang would still speak, wouldn't you?" At this moment, after hearing Dongfang Weimei's words, Zhu Bufan was initially startled, but the next moment he calmed down.

"That's right, well then! Since that's the case, Young Master Zhu, this young lady will tell you."

Dongfang Weimei was very direct, and the next moment she began to speak forthrightly:

"Years ago, a young member of the Zhou Family came to Tianhai City to make a living and fell in love with your brother's aunt, but your brother's grandfather strongly opposed their relationship, leading to your brother's aunt eventually drowning herself in the river. Sigh! So many years have passed, and that young man from the Zhou Family has now become the Family Head. Therefore, his sending people this time is for revenge. As for why he didn't take action directly and chose this way instead, perhaps he was still holding onto some past sentiments." At this time, upon hearing Zhu Bufan's words, Dongfang Weimei did not say anything more but immediately recounted the story.

"Is the Zhou Family of Tianhai City related to the Zhou Family of Capital City?" asked Zhu Bufan.

Dongfang Weimei was startled, staring at Zhu Bufan for a while before saying, "The two families are not related! However, these two families? Young Master Zhu, I don't mean to disrespect you, but you probably can't afford to provoke either of them right now."

"Hehe, regarding these two families, I, Zhu Bufan, will not provoke them on my own initiative. However, if they come looking for trouble with me, Zhu Bufan, I'm sorry to say that I am not one to be trampled upon by just anyone."

Zhu Bufan spoke calmly.

However, the next moment, Zhu Bufan seemed to recall something, so immediately he stood up and said to Dongfang Weimei:

"Miss Dongfang, thank you for the information. If there is nothing else, then I, Zhu Bufan, shall take my leave. I will certainly repay this favor in the future."

"Hehe, it's nothing, please, Young Master Zhu!"

.......

After leaving Dongfang Weimei's place, Zhu Bufan immediately went to find his brother Wen Yang.

But, to his surprise, Wen Yang had already left early with his father.

Therefore, Zhu Bufan first took out his phone to call Wen Yang, and after finding out that both Wen Yang and his father were fine, Zhu Bufan then left the teahouse.

"Amitabha, benefactor, greetings."

After leaving the teahouse, what Zhu Bufan did not expect was that as soon as he stepped out, a bald monk directly blocked his way.

After stopping Zhu Bufan, the bald monk joined his hands respectfully and addressed Zhu Bufan.

"Hello!" Seeing this, Zhu Bufan also courteously replied.

Zhu Bufan held a fair amount of respect for Buddhism.

Although during his education he was taught atheism, Zhu Bufan's mother was a Buddhist believer, and he had been exposed to Buddhism since he was little.

Thus, Zhu Bufan was very polite to this monk who appeared out of the blue.

"Master, do you need something?" Zhu Bufan surmised that such a monk suddenly appearing could not possibly be without a reason.

After carefully sensing and confirming that the bald monk had no ill intentions towards him, Zhu Bufan then asked.

"Amitabha, well said, well said, benefactor. I, Monk Wan Kong, have come to you today because there is a destined connection between you and me." At this point, Wan Kong once again spoke with hands joined in prayer.

In this society, it's not to say that every monk or nun is genuinely engaged in spiritual cultivation; among them, some people are only using the status as a facade to commit fraud.

There has been a report about a master who took three wives and bought three villas, such monks exploit their monastic identity for massive wealth accumulation.

There is even news that now, whether to become a monk or a nun, it seems one needs to have at least an undergraduate degree.

Therefore, after hearing what Monk Wan Kong said, Zhu Bufan simply did not wait for the bald monk to speak further. Zhu Bufan directly took out three red bills:

"Master, since you say that we are so fated, then please accept this money as a donation to your temple."

As he spoke, Zhu Bufan handed the money to Wan Kong.

"Then, I, on behalf of Wanfo Temple, thank the benefactor."

At this moment, Monk Wan Kong did not decline, swiftly pocketing the money in the large pouch in front of him, then thanked Zhu Bufan with a look of gratitude and piety.

"You're welcome, you're welcome," Zhu Bufan replied.

Zhu Bufan said so, but in his heart, he could not help but scorn: "He truly is a swindler exploiting the identity of a master."

"Well then, Master, that will be all. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now." Now that he knew this monk was here just to solicit alms, Zhu Bufan, having given the money, did not wish to continue speaking with Monk Wan Kong, and so at the next moment, Zhu Bufan promptly excused himself.

"Wait a moment, benefactor." However, at this time, Monk Wan Kong stopped Zhu Bufan in his tracks.
