With regards to this, Fangzheng could only recite the scriptures for the deceased. As he watched the deceased's families wail, Fangzheng also felt really upset. Unfortunately, he was not a Buddha and was incapable of resurrecting the dead. The only thing Fangzheng could do was try to save more people.
With Fangzheng's help, the search and rescue operation resulted in a drastic reduction in death and injury. In the beginning, many people didn't notice it, but slowly, as Fangzheng's actions increased in frequency, with more and more people saved, more people began to notice him. His white robes and bald head were just too eye-catching.
People also started calling Fangzheng a Guardian Buddha just like CO Qi and his men. With that, Fangzheng immediately shook his head and said, "Why does it sound like a triad nickname? Patrons, This Penniless Monk is just like the other volunteers, doing the best that can be done. How can This Penniless Monk be called a Buddha?"
