Wen Ying said she was here for the vegetarian meals and to live a simple, meat-free life for a while. She spent a thousand yuan for a room in a side hall.
She had assumed the monks would be in the main hall reciting scriptures all day, but after staying for a while, Wen Ying realized she'd overthought it.
Aside from the evening drums, morning bells, and their morning lessons, the monks did as they pleased.
They had cell phones, computers, and even a gym. Their lives were quite eventful.
When people came to offer incense and make donations, a dedicated monk would guide them, a duty that rotated among them.
So, the main hall was mostly empty at night.
As soon as Wen Ying stepped inside, Lady Taishan's spirit tablet vanished with a SWISH, reappearing on Wen Ying's wrist as the same pendant.
'How considerate of Lady Taishan!'
Wen Ying left the main hall with the pendant, following the images that had appeared in her mind.
It was the so-called forbidden area once again.
