Chapter 382: The Heart's Illness Still Requires the Heart's Medicine

As the man passed by the big tree, he saw the naked corpse of a woman lying underneath. He walked over to the side of the corpse, shook his head in pity, and then took off his coat to cover the body. After sighing, he also hurried away.

Not long after the third person left, a fourth person came walking towards the big tree. As he passed by, he noticed the corpse now covered with a piece of clothing. He stepped closer, saw that she had been dead for some time, shook his head in pity, then dug a hole beside the tree and buried the corpse.

At this point, the images in the mirror vanished, and the scholar saw his own face reflected in the mirror, grown somewhat pale due to weakness.

The Taoist asked the scholar if he had understood anything. The scholar shook his head to indicate he did not comprehend and humbly sought the Taoist's insight into the mystery.
