"No," Mingzhuo said crisply, "I won't get involved in karma, don't worry."

She paused, then added, "Besides, only Buddhism emphasizes cause and effect and karma, while Taoism only emphasizes the natural way."

Jiang Furong: "So you're a Taoist priest."

Mingzhuo smiled and did not refute. Compared to Buddhism, she preferred Taoism.

“Master, I’ve sent you the birth details. What else do you need for the ritual? I’ll prepare it all.” After a pause, Jiang Furong added, “I heard about Yunling Temple. I happen to be in Lei City next door, not far away, so I can send it by express delivery.”

She wanted to visit him, but considering that the master never showed his face during his live fortune-telling broadcasts, she figured it might be inconvenient and had to give up.

Mingzhuo thought for a moment, "How about this, I'll give you an address, and you can send me your token of love and a lock of your hair."

“…Okay.” Jiang Furong was still worried.

She was actually in the Taoist temple and had just consulted the abbot, who thought the claim was completely nonsense.

This isn't some favoritism; you can't just cut it off whenever you want, can you?

Hearing the heaviness in the woman's voice, Mingzhuo offered words of comfort, "Don't worry, I've got it covered! What do you mean by preordained marriage? Heaven must be wrong! Heaven only bullies the weak and fears the strong. If it dares to disagree, believe me, I'll stab it to death!"

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone around her looked over.

Are all young girls these days like this? They look soft, obedient, and pretty, but when they say something tough, they're full of energy.

It makes one wonder if she's really going to poke the sky.

At the stall, two young men glanced at Mingzhuo a few times.

"Which sect's junior sister is this? She's quite interesting." Liang Xing couldn't help but laugh. "She's also very pretty."

The little girl stood out from the crowd; her eyebrows and eyes were delicate and beautiful, and her skin was so white it seemed to glow.

He looks very young. At this age, he is practicing Taoism, so he is probably from a Taoist family.

Shen Boyuan snorted coldly, "Ignorant fool."

Liang Xing felt somewhat embarrassed. His friend was devoted to cultivating the Tao and had profound knowledge of Taoist techniques, but he was also intolerant of any flaws and was rather demanding.

Mingzhuo looked up at the departing figures of the two young men... Was this referring to himself?

She didn't pay any attention, hung up the phone and walked towards Ruan Mingxuan, "Second Sister".

Ruan Mingxuan panicked when she didn't see Mingzhuo. She went outside the shop and looked around. When she finally saw Mingzhuo, she felt relieved.

"Zhuozhuo!" She waved, but was stopped by someone.

The monk clasped his hands together in a gesture of respect and said a few words. Ruan Mingxuan's expression immediately turned cold.

Seeing that something was wrong, Mingzhuo quickly went over and asked, "Second Sister, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Ruan Mingxuan didn't want to talk about it anymore, and pulled Mingzhuo away. "Let's go quickly."

The monk refused to give up and followed the two sisters closely: "Female benefactor, you are indeed burdened by karmic obstacles. Only if you enter my Buddhist order can your life be saved."

"Master, you don't need to say anymore."

Ruan Mingxuan didn't believe any of this. If the monk hadn't meant no harm, she would have turned against him long ago.

"Amitabha Buddha, female benefactor..."

Mingzhuo sighed, turned around and interrupted the monk, "Master, you may have misjudged us. Perhaps you should take another look? We are clearly destined for great wealth and honor."

The monk was taken aback. The little girl in front of him was smiling, but she was hard to understand.

He possessed innate wisdom and supernatural abilities, and was deeply versed in Buddhist teachings. This was the first time he had encountered someone he couldn't see through.

Seeing the monk in a daze, Mingzhuo pulled Ruan Mingxuan and turned to leave.

The monk stood there, stunned for a long time, before finally saying in surprise, "That's not right, that female benefactor was clearly dead just now..."

But how could the dead possibly come back to life? Perhaps he really misjudged the situation.

The monk put his hands together in prayer and said, "Amitabha."

The monk's claim of being detached from worldly desires stems from insufficient spiritual cultivation; he has violated the precept against lying.

——

Neither of the sisters took the little incident to heart, and they called Ah Hu to carry large bags and small packages back home.

We had vegetarian food at the temple for lunch. This vegetarian food is not open to the public and is hard to find, but it tasted quite delicious.

As the car drove down the mountain, smelling the aroma wafting from the roadside barbecue restaurant, Mingzhuo thought that she still preferred eating meat.

She can eat vegetarian food occasionally, but she can't handle it long-term.

"Zhuozhuo, are you really going to school?" Ruan Mingying asked with a hint of reluctance.

She only took half a day off, and Mingzhuo has to go back to class. She still has a lot of schedules to complete.

Mingzhuo nodded.

Xu Shanglou thought this was a good thing. "Zhuozhuo is very self-disciplined. I'll have Ah Hu pick you up from school early so we can have dinner together tonight."

The car arrived at the school gate, and Mingzhuo was dropped off.

When Mingzhuo pushed open the classroom door, the whole class stared at her in shock.

Is this the new transfer student? My goodness, she's absolutely gorgeous!

With fair skin, delicate eyebrows and eyes, and black and smooth hair, she looks very sweet and gentle, which makes people feel a strong desire to protect her!

Seeing Mingzhuo walk straight to the back of the classroom, someone couldn't help but remind him.

"Hey kid, don't sit there!"

Mingzhuo put down his schoolbag, looked up, and asked, "Why?"

So sweet and well-behaved, and her voice is so soft! Xie Xiao said with a smile, "You should ask the teacher to arrange for you to sit in the front. This is where our class bully sits."

"School bully?" Mingzhuo's tone was a little strange; it was the first time she had ever heard of such a thing.

Xie Xiao thought she was questioning the authenticity of the story and couldn't bear to see the other person fall into the lion's den. "Yes, it's very fierce, no one dares to mess with it."

Others also kindly advised, "Have you seen the show 'Life Swap'? She really does hit people!"
