Yimeng Huangliang

In the rural northeastern mountainous regions stands a tiny Buddhist temple, named One Finger Temple. It isn't a large one but it is extremely miraculous.

The temple has rice that emanates an aromatic fragrance.

The temple has sweet and refreshing water that rivals ambrosia.

The temple has Buddhas that grant wishes to the sincere.

The temple isn't large but it has everything. The temple isn't large but it has flourishing incense offerings that far exceed all temples. The temple isn't large but it attracts both citizens and foreigners that line up overnight…

The temple has a bald but handsome monk. Every day, he would bawl, "I want to renounce asceticism! I want to marry a chick that's not too pretty, have a cute baby, and lead a stable life!"

This book is a casual novel that introduces various Chinese traditional customs, as well as Buddhist ones. It strives to be a positive book, allowing people to reflect on how they should live their lives and treat others.

However Fangzheng did not say a word. Instead, Zhineng spoke first. "Venerable Fangzheng, This Penniless Monk would like to ask. Did you go to a hotel to get a room last night with this female patron?"

Zhiyun immediately understood Zhineng as he echoed, "Right, did you?"

The other monks looked over as well. All of them stared intently at Fangzheng, as Fangzheng nodded without any hesitation, Yes, but—"

"If there's a yes, why do you need any buts? If you did it, you should have the guts to admit it," Zhiyun rushed to speak out.

Zhineng did not give Fangzheng a chance to continue either. He said to Yi Xing and Hong Jin, "Venerable Ones, you heard it for yourself." He then asked Fangzheng, "Senior Brother Tongguang mentioned the rules very clearly to you just now, but you refused to heed them. You even wanted to quarrel. Did this happen?"
