The dawn broke.
The wind ceased, and the rain stopped.
The temple appeared to have stood for many years, its walls covered in moss, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura. The intricate carvings on the eaves had faded, yet remnants of their former beauty remained. A faint scent of sandalwood lingered in the air, bringing a sense of tranquility to the mind.
"There is no need for you to retrace your steps," the old monk said, his hands clasped together as he slightly bowed. His voice, though soft, carried a resonant clarity that reached our ears.
Following his gesture, I noticed a hidden path leading out from the mountain gate.
I mimicked his posture and bowed my head, "Master, I..."
The old monk smiled and interrupted me, "Karma is not to be taken lightly; every step must be taken with care. The present is impermanent; every moment must be cherished."
He then turned his gaze toward the main hall. "People are unaware of Karma; who has ever been spared by it? Every thought and intention is a cause; what you experience now is the effect."
I bowed again in reverence.
We had witnessed the old monk's abilities.
In the early morning, as the first rays of sunlight pierced through the mist and illuminated the glazed tiles of the ancient temple, he sat cross-legged on a mat, eyes closed in deep concentration, as if conversing with the heavens and earth.
The hefty man pulled out a thousand yuan from my bag and waved it in front of the old monk. "If you can guess my surname, this money is yours!" He gestured to me. "My buddy here has encountered some misfortune; if you can help him resolve it, I’ll have him bow to you right here!" His eyes sparkled with both mischief and defiance.
The old monk opened his eyes and fixed his gaze on him for a moment before slowly speaking, "Your family has some wealth, but human relationships are cold; if you do not treat your elders well, there may be no descendants left for you."
The hefty man was stunned!
Fatty Dad was a contractor who lived comfortably, yet his grandmother still resided in a dilapidated house with drafts seeping through every crack.
He had argued with his parents countless times, but they refused to listen, neglecting their widowed mother for years.
Without hesitation, Fatty knelt before the old monk and bowed deeply. When he stood up again, tears glistened in his eyes. "Master, I will remember this!"
The old monk glanced at me again. "This young man merely has dust on his heart; he must understand that good causes lead to good effects."
Su Qing had been harmed because of me; this was my inner demon.
Most of the boys and girls in class either feared or admired me, except for Su Qing. Aside from supervising assignments, she wouldn’t even spare me a glance.
It wasn’t just me—many boys pursued her, but she dismissed them all without a second thought.
But when had I ever been so easily ignored?
I liked Su Qing, but the arrogance of wealthy people made it hard for me to lower myself to pursue her.
It was my birthday. Su Qing, the Class Beauty who was excellent in both character and learning, simply disdained to attend the birthday party of a dandy student with little moral integrity and human touch. But she had no choice. Her roommate Jiang Xiaoli had been chasing me for a long time. I didn't like gold diggers like her, but I could still use her. I promised her: As long as Su Qing attended my birthday party, I would buy her a bag, the kind displayed in luxury stores! If she could help me complete the subsequent steps, I would give you an additional 10,000 yuan. In my world, money can settle everything, let alone for people like Jiang Xiaoli. My birthday party was arranged at Tian Shang Ren Jia, which is the most luxurious entertainment tavern in Jiangcheng. Except for the fat guy and Ma Gan who followed me all the time, most of my classmates could not imagine that there was such a luxurious place in the world. Let's eat first, seafood buffet, 698 per person, I brought the drinks, boys' Taiwan and girls' Lafite. I noticed that Jiang Xiaoli from the girls' side was following my plan. She poured drinks for each girl and kept showing off to support me: "Let's raise our glasses together and wish Li Chenxi a happy birthday!" Su Qing was actually tricked by her, but she still ignored me. I know that many people look down on me in their hearts, but they just don't want to or dare to step on me... After eating and drinking, we sang. In the KTV box, colorful lights swept across everyone's face. Looking at the slightly embarrassed Su Qing, my eyes revealed pride. While everyone was not paying attention, Jiang Xiaoli secretly added "ingredients" to Su Qing's drink, which could arouse people's desire. A sneer appeared on the corner of my mouth: Su Qing, just wait to make a fool of yourself! The boys left first, and I offered to take the girls home. Jiang Xiaoli answered quickly: "There are too many of us, and your car can't accommodate us. Su Qing drank a little too much, so you can just take her alone." She also helped Su Qing get into my car. Su Qing felt dizzy and leaned weakly on the seat. I pretended to be concerned and asked: "Su Qing, are you okay?" Su Qing wanted to speak, but found that her voice became very strange and her body was completely out of control. She looked at me in horror, and my eyes were full of ridicule and malice. I took out my phone, pulled down her collar, pulled up her skirt, and took a lot of photos of her. Then, I took off all her clothes in her helplessness and tears, and leaned on her. I posted a circle of friends, although it was blurry, but anyone who knew us could recognize it: Goddess and me! The photo spread quickly. Maybe because I was a scumbag, Su Qing didn't call the police. First, she took a leave to return to her hometown, and then there was news that after returning to her hometown, she locked herself in the room and took an overdose of sleeping pills. I had no idea things would turn out this way.
Then, the Death Gaze kept lingering on me.
