Illustrated by Zhutian: a Career That Started as a Beggar

Virtual heavens, one thought is ignorant; Life is like a dream, the road travels alone. There is no shame in starting from humble beginnings. Only when you can bend and stretch can you become a husband! A beggar who obeys orders like an ant, To the warriors who roam the land; From the king of the sun and moon to the sky, To be the most outstanding teacher in the world. To survive, one must understand one's mind and one's nature; to gain enlightenment and spread the Dharma throughout the world. ... "Shao Bai is not talented, but I am willing to spend the rest of my life traveling across mountains, rivers and all realms!" ——Crossing the Sea Collection: Building a Boat This novel and its characters are purely fictitious.
