Cao Benefactor, Lying Gets Your Bottom Spanked. Ah~
Fortunately, Cao Delian's remaining rationality stopped him from making a suicidal move. He didn't turn on the air conditioner again or smell the hypnotic gas.
Then, seeing the little monk's puzzled look, Cao Delian chuckled dryly, "Haha, I just thought you were asleep and wanted to carry you out of the car."
--Speaking of which, this little monk has a really strong hand; it stung terribly when that palm struck his wrist just now.
"I see." The little monk nodded, revealing a bright smile, "Thank you, Benefactor Cao. However, I was reciting scriptures silently just now and did not doze off. This is the time when the temple recites scriptures after dinner. Although I have left the temple, I will not neglect my scripture recitation."
"Hehe, hehe." Cao Delian continued to chuckle dryly, looking at the little monk so clear-headed, he was extremely frustrated—damn it, the hypnotic gas wasn't working?
Oh well, if it doesn't work, it doesn't work.
This little monk is only six or seven years old; children his age tend to sleep late at night. Cao Delian thought to himself, "I'll just secretly take back the four thousand red notes after he falls asleep!"
"Benefactor Cao, have we arrived at our destination?" The young monk turned around to look around, then suddenly remembered something. He touched his buttocks and asked excitedly, "Benefactor Cao, shall we go to the hospital now? You said that once we arrived at our destination, you would find a good hospital to perform hemorrhoid surgery on me—a minimally invasive procedure, painless and without recurrence?"
"No rush, no rush. You can go for hemorrhoid treatment anytime. You and Uncle should go to a nice place first. It's getting late, let's stay the night." Cao Delian smiled innocently.
His smile gives people a sunny and reliable feeling.
To perfect his smile, Cao Delian endured a lot of hardship!
"But Benefactor Cao, you said that once we arrive at our destination, you would immediately find a very good hospital to perform hemorrhoid surgery on me!" The little monk frowned, his face extremely serious.
Holy crap, has this kid's brain hole flared up again?
Hehe, we've arrived in Wenzhou City now, so I don't have to keep going along with the little monk anymore.
Child abduction requires not only a perfect smile, but sometimes also ruthless methods. There's a saying, "a combination of kindness and severity," which captures that principle.
So, Cao Delian put on a stern face and adopted a fierce expression. "Hemorrhoids, hemorrhoids, my ass! You better behave yourself. It's getting late, find a place to stay and rest. If you don't listen, I'll throw you into the river to feed the sharks!"
The little monk still looked serious, and his small brows were furrowed even more deeply.
After a moment, the young monk said in a deep voice, "Benefactor Cao, you clearly agreed to find a hospital to treat my hemorrhoids once we arrived at our destination. Were you lying to me before?"
"That's not lying, that's just coaxing you!" Cao Delian sneered, rolling up his sleeves. If the little monk remained stubborn and disobedient, he was prepared to give him a good beating.
He's a naughty kid; a good spanking will make him behave. He's very familiar with this.
"Lying is wrong. Master said that liars will be spanked!" The little monk said the last few words through gritted teeth.
As he said those words, there was still a hint of fear in his eyes, a psychological trauma left from being frequently spanked over the past two years.
"Damn it, is he having another episode? Spanking? I'll beat you to death first!" Cao Delian was furious and reached out to grab the little monk, thinking, "I'll spank you until your butt is raw!"
The young monk's expression grew even more serious. He stood still, letting Cao Delian grab his collar.
After grabbing the little monk, Cao Delian casually dragged him along, thinking he would give the brat a good beating.
However... when he pulled hard, he felt as if he were holding not a child, but a heavy iron block. The little monk's feet seemed to be rooted in the ground, and he couldn't move an inch.
What's going on? Cao Delian refused to believe it and pulled again with all his might!
The young monk remained unmoved, like a mountain.
"Benefactor Cao, if you lie, you'll get a spanking!" the little monk said in a deep voice, like an angry Vajra.
Then, he reached out and grabbed Cao Delian's large hand that was gripping his collar. Without him even using much force, Cao Delian was thrown up like a windmill.
Finally, he landed heavily on the ground, falling face-first into the dirt with his butt sticking up high.
What happened? What exactly happened in that split second? Cao Delian was shocked. His mind was completely blank, like Ferrari with a tractor engine inside.
But before he could think any further, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his buttocks!
Snap!
The young monk stretched out his palm, squatted down beside him, and slapped his buttocks hard.
--Good heavens, that little monk's hand didn't feel like a human hand at all; it felt like an iron whip lashing out, burning with pain. A human's buttocks are usually a fatty area, but when the little monk slapped him on the buttocks, the pain felt like it went straight to his bones.
"Ah..." Cao Delian let out a humiliating scream. It hurt so much that he instinctively cried out.
"I'll teach you to lie! I'll teach you to lie!" The little monk stretched out his palms and slapped Cao Delian's buttocks repeatedly...
"Aaaaaah..." Cao Delian screamed repeatedly, snot and saliva dripping all over the ground.
He crawled frantically on the ground, trying to escape the little monk's clutches.
But he had only crawled one step when the little monk grabbed his foot and dragged him back easily. Cao Delian's fingers had left five clear marks on the ground...
Clap clap clap clap!
"Do you still dare to lie?" the little monk said angrily.
"I won't dare again, I'll never dare again." Cao Delian was in tears, the overwhelming pain leaving his mind Blank. In any case, if the little monk said one thing, he wouldn't dare say another.
If this were an ancient war, a guy like Cao Delian, once captured by the enemy and subjected to a little torture, would definitely spill all the information he knew.
Clap clap clap!
The young monk continued smoking angrily, "Then are you going to take me to the hospital for hemorrhoid surgery or not?"
"I'll take you right away, I'll take you right away!" Cao Delian pleaded loudly, "Don't hit me anymore, or I'll be crippled! I'll take you to the hospital right now!"
The young monk stopped what he was doing, put his hands together in prayer, stood up, his anger subsided, and then revealed a gentle smile, "Excellent, excellent. Benefactor Cao's ability to admit his mistake and correct it is truly commendable. I hope Benefactor Cao will remember this lesson and from now on, refrain from lying again."
"Yes, little master, I will definitely change, I will definitely change. I will never lie again in my life," Cao Delian cried.
"Shall we go to the hospital? My hemorrhoids are starting to ache," the little monk said seriously.
"I'll go, I'll go. I know there's a Sixth Hospital nearby that's very good at treating hemorrhoids," Cao Delian replied quickly—at the same time, his mind cleared up a little.
Marby, what just happened?
Where did this little monk, who looked no more than eight years old, get such strength? His strength was so great that even an adult like him couldn't offer any resistance.
His fighting ability is off the charts, okay? I'm completely helpless against him!
Could this be the legendary Shaolin Kung Fu?
So here's the question—if this little monk is so powerful, why would he come to my house to sell himself?
Is this guy deliberately trying to scam me?
What if he's deliberately trying to trick me? Should I run away from this young monk?
But she was unwilling to give up. She had already taken the little monk all the way from the Jiangnan Region to Wenzhou City. As long as she found a buyer, she could happily sell the little monk.
Moreover, he had decided that this would be his last job; he would retire after this one.
Cao Delian rubbed his buttocks and slowly got up from the ground.
At the same time, his mind raced.
By the way, what am I afraid of if the little monk is strong? As long as I don't clash with him, I'll bring a few sellers to see the little monk and then hand him over to them.
If I can't handle the little monk myself, then let the seller deal with him, okay?
It has to be said that human nature is sometimes like this—it's easy to lose rationality in the face of profit. Just like someone playing the stock market, rationality tells him it's about time to withdraw, but seeing the stock price rising and rising, he always thinks. "One last day, let me make money one last day!" And then, he loses everything.
In the end, Cao Delian still took the little monk to the Sixth Hospital.
Since it was evening, I could only go to the emergency room.
The Sixth Hospital is always bustling with business; even at night, there are still long queues of people waiting to register.
The young monk and Cao Delian were at the end of the line, moving forward slowly.
One by one, the people in front of them completed their registration, paid, and went to find the corresponding doctor.
When the young monk saw the patient who had registered, paid, and left, he suddenly turned pale. "Registration... costs money?"
He only searched online for the question "How much does hemorrhoid surgery cost?" and found that the surgery would cost around 3,000 to 5,000 yuan, but he never included the registration fee in his calculations.
"Benefactor Cao, could you lend me some money?" The little monk turned around and looked pitifully at Cao Delian.
Cao Delian glanced at the young monk, secretly rubbing his still throbbing buttocks, then flashed a hearty smile, "No problem, I'll pay for the mere registration fee."
"Benefactor Cao, you are a kind person. This humble monk is extremely grateful." The young monk's eyes were filled with sincere gratitude.
Cao Delian swallowed hard.
The line moved forward gradually, and soon it was the young monk's turn to register.
"Who is seeing a doctor? Which department are you going to?" the nurse at the counter asked, looking up at her.
"I'm the patient. I have hemorrhoids and need a minimally invasive surgery!" the little monk answered, raising his hand.
"Oh, the little one is so cute," the nurse said with a smile, then looked at Cao Delian: "Are you the little one's father, sir?"
"No, he's the one who bought the little monk," the little monk answered for him.
