Red Boy was too embarrassed to say that money was picked up. Hence, he shook his head and said, "One should be frugal when possible…"

The woman looked at Red Boy's tattered monk robes and felt a little emotional. She nodded and said, "Alright, but a cute and sensible child like you should be rewarded. I have a tiny strawberry cake here. Do you want it?"

Red Boy's eyes lit up when he heard that. "Really? Can you really give it to me?"

The woman smiled and said, "Of course, just take it as a bonus for the final sale for today. It's on the house."

The woman took out a small cake from the counter. It wasn't even the size of a palm-sized cake. There was a beautiful red strawberry on top of it. She handed it to Red Boy.

Red Boy pressed his palms together gratefully. "Amitabha. Thank you, Patron!"

"Take it." The woman handed it to Red Boy. Red Boy happily took it and took the money the woman had returned him.

After putting all the money into the box, Red Boy ran happily to the opposite side of the road. When he looked up, he was stunned. He realized that another person had appeared on the bench. The person appeared very down as he scratched his head with both hands, looking anxious.

However, Red Boy did not think much of it. He was starving and only wanted to eat something.

At that moment, Fangzheng said, "Jingxin, stop eating."

Red Boy was taken aback as he asked, "Master, what's wrong?"

"Go and return the bread."

Red Boy exclaimed, "What? Master! We haven't eaten for more than a day. We are about to starve to death. To return it? What if they don't accept returns? They…"

Red Boy was just about to say something when he saw Fangzheng's solemn expression. He could only bitterly wrap the bread again. He looked at the bread in his hand and took a deep breath of the bread's fragrance. He asked indignantly, "Master, was this the patron who lost the money?"

Fangzheng shook his head.

Red Boy couldn't figure out Fangzheng's actions…

However, Red Boy knew very well that Fangzheng would definitely not stand on ceremony if he could eat. Since Fangzheng said they couldn't eat the food, there had to be a reason. Therefore, Red Boy obediently walked back with the bread.

"Why are you back?" the woman asked in surprise.

Red Boy sighed and said, "Master told me to return it. Patron, can I return the bread?"

The auntie looked at the properly packaged bread and said in puzzlement, "You seem to be very hungry. Why are you returning it? Are you going to eat something else? I dare say that no food on this street is cheaper and healthier than me."

Red Boy shook his head and said, "I don't know either. However, there's definitely a reason why Master wants me to return the bread. Sorry, Patron, please take it back."

The woman frowned and persuaded Red Boy a few more times to no avail. Finally, she refunded him the money.

However, when Red Boy wanted to return the tiny cake, the woman shook her head. "This is a gift. There's no need to return it. Take it and eat it."

"Thank you…" Red Boy pressed his palms together in gratitude.

With that said, Red Boy carried the box and ran back.

"Master, the bread has been returned. This was a gift from that patron. Can I keep it? The money is all here," Red Boy asked pitifully.

Fangzheng nodded. "Since it's a gift, you can obviously keep it."

Then, Fangzheng took the box and patted the man's shoulder. "Patron, take it."

The man was taken aback as he asked, "You want to give me this money?"

Fangzheng nodded slightly and said with a smile, "There are priorities. Since your daughter is seriously ill and lacks money, giving you the money might be the best choice. However, this money isn't This Penniless Monk's either. It was also picked up by This Penniless Monk. However, the owner never came to retrieve it. Patron, take it to handle the emergency. This Penniless Monk will wait here for the owner. If he comes, This Penniless Monk will explain it to him. This Penniless Monk will resolve the subsequent problems of repayment."

The man looked at Fangzheng in surprise and said, "This… This is all for me? The two of you seem very hungry."

Groan…

Without needing Fangzheng and Red Boy to reply, their stomachs were already growling.

Fangzheng shook his head and said, "People won't die from not eating for a day, but if they are not given treatment when sick, something can happen. Patron, quickly go."

The man fell silent…

"Master, what's going on?" Red Boy asked in confusion.

Fangzheng said, "When you went to buy bread, this patron came over. I heard him on the phone. The hospital was rushing him to pay the medical bills. His daughter is still in the hospital and needs money to be treated. I believe the money we picked up should be used on people who need it more."

Red Boy said bitterly, "Then what if the person who lost the money comes back? What if he's also in need of the money?"

Fangzheng thought for a moment and said, "It's not difficult for you to earn some money at critical moments, right?"

Red Boy's eyes lit up!

Fangzheng had always objected to using divine powers to earn money. For example, once Fangzheng opened his Heavenly Eye, he could just sit on the ground and read fortunes. However, he was restricted by the System and could not do so. However, Red Boy was not restricted!

It was not against the law to earn money by performing on the streets overseas. As long as they performed according to the rules at a regulated place, there wouldn't be any Urban Administrative and Law Enforcement Bureau to chase them away.

It was still very easy for Red Boy to spit fire. However, Fangzheng had always objected to using such a method to earn money. In Fangzheng's words, one had to walk the mortal world like an ordinary person and experience the sufferings of the mortal world to understand what he should do.

As for being high up in an ivory tower and giving a few lectures while spending large sums of money were not things that Fangzheng agreed with. If one didn't know what another party needed and only used a method that one thinks is the correct method, they would often not harm the other party instead of helping them.

To redeem others, one had to redeem oneself. One had to redeem others and oneself. Therefore, before redeeming others, one had to experience the myriad states of life.

However, there were always exceptions to everything. It was obvious that they had to temporarily set aside some rules and make things convenient for them.

At that moment, Red Boy transmitted his voice. "Master, you can save his daughter. There's no need to give him money…"

Fangzheng cast A Golden Millet Dream to prevent the other party from hearing him. Only then did he say, "It's not convenient for me to act openly. I'll follow him later and save his daughter. As for giving him money, it's just a form of consolation. After all, this bit of money isn't enough to pay for a surgery. A single illness doesn't only torment the patient, but also the patient's family. He was on the brink of collapse. Our money might not be of much use, but it's enough for him to see a glimmer of hope… This money isn't money, but medicine used to treat illnesses. Do you understand?"

Red Boy nodded thoughtfully. "Got it."

Just as the two of them were communicating with each other via voice transmissions, there was a sudden sound of fireworks behind them. Following that, fireworks shot up into the sky and bloomed in the sky, illuminating the night sky!

The sudden fireworks stunned the master and disciple duo. What was going on?

As though they didn't cost money, the fireworks flew into the sky one by one and exploded…

Following that, a group of people suddenly ran out of the quiet streets. They were holding flowers and a huge card!
