The Monk That Wanted To Renounce Asceticism

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.

Liu Yu's mother shouted, "That much?!"

Liu Yu's father nodded and said, "Yes."

Liu Yu's mother said, "Then… what do we do?"

Liu Yu's father no longer said a word. He just smoked…

That night, Liu Yu did not see his brother again. Liu Yu's father told him that his brother was taken away by a distant relative to a distant city and that he would never return.

However, Liu Yu knew that his brother had died. They had no money to treat his illness. His brother lied next door as his parents watched him take his last breath!

They did not know that Liu Yu was squatting in the yard and below the windowsill, listening to his parents' heart-wrenching cries…

From that day onwards, he swore to himself that he would not be a scientist when he grew up. He was going to be a doctor! He wanted to be a doctor that treated the ill and poor. He refused to allow more brothers to die like this!
