Chapter 1295: Fangzheng’s Analogy

When Monkey saw the golden retriever go crazy, he quickly ran and climbed up the tree.

The dog didn’t know how to climb a tree. It barked under the tree for a while until it was sure that the hooligan monkey wasn’t coming down. Only then did it bark angrily twice and leave unwillingly.

After the dog left, Monkey quickly came down and returned to the mountain.

Red Boy, who was hiding far away, heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this. He had perfectly completed his bodyguard mission. Time to head back!

“Master, that dog is so fierce. It didn’t let me touch it,” said Monkey pitifully.

Fangzheng said, “You went empty-handed. It naturally wouldn’t let you touch it.”

Monkey asked in puzzlement, “What do you mean?” Then he pricked up his brows. “I understand!”

Therefore, Monkey went to the back kitchen and took a Crystal Rice dumpling down the mountain.

Not long after, the sound of barking was heard at the foot of the mountain.

“Ow, ow…”

“I’m giving you food, but you still bite me? Bad dog!” Monkey climbed up the tree again!

After circling the tree for a while, the golden retriever left.

Monkey returned to the mountain gloomily.

After returning home, the golden retriever suddenly saw a Crystal Rice dumpling. It pricked up its brows and ran over to eat it. It mumbled happily, “Where did this come from? It’s so delicious… Haha…”

Red Boy squatted by the side and facepalmed when he saw this scene. He mumbled, “I thought that this dog doesn’t eat Crystal Rice dumplings. So it has bad eyesight and didn’t manage to see it… Poor monkey.”

Monkey pitifully stood in front of Fangzheng and said, “Master, I failed again.”

Fangzheng put down the Frost Bamboo in his hand and said, “Do you know why you failed?”

Monkey shook his head. “I don’t know. He bit me when I gave him food. That dog is crazy!”

Fangzheng shook his head and took out a kitchen knife from a bag beside him. He handed it to Monkey and said, “Take this with you. Tell me the results when you return.”

Monkey was taken aback. A knife? Was he touching the dog or killing it?

However, with a knife in hand, Monkey was no longer afraid. At most, he would fight! There was nothing to be afraid of!

Therefore, Monkey left the mountain valiantly.

As the golden retriever basked in the sun, it suddenly heard a shout at the door. When it looked up, it saw Monkey again!

The golden retriever was enraged. It got up and, without listening to Monkey’s nonsense, it rushed forward and prepared to bite him!

Woof! Woof! Woof…

Furious barking sounded. Monkey looked at the golden retriever rush at him ferociously and felt a little afraid. However, he still took out the cleaver from behind him and prepared to start fighting!

Almost at the instant the cleaver was taken out, the golden retriever suddenly widened its eyes. It hurriedly halted in its tracks and rolled in front of Monkey!

Monkey thought, “Nice, you want to deliver a side tackle?”

When Monkey raised his kitchen knife, the golden retriever laid on the ground. It spread its limbs and retracted its teeth. It stuck out its tongue and wagged its tail. Its ears drooped as though it was very adorable and cowardly…

Monkey was taken aback. He rubbed his eyes and looked ahead. Then, he looked down at the dog who was acting cute in a wheedling manner and showing its belly for a belly rub…

Monkey felt as though he was in a dream. Finally, he shook his head and rubbed the dog’s belly as he mumbled. “Indeed, no matter how good your martial arts are, you are still afraid of a kitchen knife…”

After Monkey left, the golden retriever hurriedly got up and hid with its tail between its legs. As it ran, it mumbled, “F**k, I nearly died from fright. Master used that thing in front of me yesterday to snap a few chickens’ necks… If I hadn’t reacted quickly, I would probably have my neck chopped by it.”

Red Boy, who was hiding by the side, scratched his head. “Nice, it’s no wonder Master asked me to bring back a cleaver from Sun Qiancheng’s family. This dog has seen Sun Qiancheng use a knife to kill chickens. He’s afraid of the knife deep down!”

Monkey came up the mountain again and handed the knife to Fangzheng. “Master, I’ve completed the mission, but I still can’t figure out what this has to do with the question I asked you.”

Fangzheng put away the kitchen knife and said indifferently, “People are all cheap. The Chinese are too kind deep down. It’s like you taking the Crystal Rice dumpling to feed the dog. The dog just treated it as though it fell from the sky and that it had nothing to do with you. It still tried to bite you. But when you brought a kitchen knife over and intimidated it, it wagged its tail to please you.

“Although this analogy is a little overboard, people…

“Whether they are westerners or Asians, everyone has the same bad nature. People prefer to play with powerful people, especially those who can bully others or have bullied them before. It’s as if playing with someone like that would make them powerful.

“Japan was once powerful. It almost made America raise a white flag. Their ferocity frightened them, so they are willing to play with these fierce people.”

Monkey was enlightened. “Isn’t that being cheap?”

Fangzheng chuckled. “That’s why dignity isn’t earned with courtesy, but earned with force. When that dog realized that it can’t beat you, it obediently lay down and communicated with you. Then, it called that equality and claimed friendliness. Otherwise, no matter how harmless you look, you will only be treated differently. This is the so-called double standard. It’s the same rubbing of bellies, but the outcome is completely different.”

Monkey said, “Uh… Alright, I understand a little. Master, doesn’t that mean that being a good person has no future?”

Fangzheng laughed out loud. “What I’m talking about is the entrenched history. As for now, might is the premise for equality. However, courtesy is equally important. I have to admit that after Japan managed to become rich, its education caught up to the Europeans who had relied on pillaging others to become rich. Japan is very good at studying, imitating, and even surpassing its teachers. Therefore, when Japan showed its military might and proved its strength, they used the polite card to open up the markets to other countries.

“China is different. We have five thousand years of culture, fifty-six ethnicities, a country which spans several latitudes. This makes people of every place have different cultures and different cultural influences.

“On the same matter, we may think ourselves to be right, but the Europeans find it to be wrong, so they will call us rude.

“In addition, in recent decades, China was the one invaded and had suffered all sorts of hardships. We haven’t crawled out from hell for more than a hundred years. Due to the large country and huge population, even if God came, it wouldn’t be possible to spread education across the country to catch up with the developed countries.

“However, economically, we are catching up to them. When this group of people suddenly appears in front of the foreigners, due to their lack of understanding, their habits, and seeing things in a different light, they eventually come to the present conclusion.

“Of course, there are more political factors involved in this… When a former empire is waning, and the peasants of the past are about to surpass them, this is something they cannot tolerate.”
