Fangzheng said, "Patron, This Penniless Monk is only an ordinary person. Patron, there's no need for that."
"You're not ordinary. You're a living Bodhisattva!" the old man said excitedly.
Fangzheng felt helpless. All he could do was get Monkey to serve tea and let the elder take a sip to calm his emotions.
When the elder composed himself, Fangzheng said, "Patron, why are you looking for This Penniless Monk?"
The elder thought for a moment and said, "Abbot Fangzheng, my name is Wei Dabao. My house is in the mountains around here. Sigh… I came here for my wife. Her heart isn't good. She had a relapse two days ago and was sent to the hospital. She nearly died…"
At this point, Wei Dabao's tears fell…
"Can't the hospital treat her?"
