I have read some of these good books. They are not the kind of mindless novels written by novices, but they are interesting, real and not nonsense. I have been watching yakuza for many years. There used to be too many classics, but now there are indeed fewer to watch. If you like cool stories, don't read them. These are more real.

"Jose Temple, Starting from Breaking the Precepts": Master, who has not touched a woman's hand for 80 years, asked me to "think of another solution" before his death --- Highlights • A last wish: Master ate meat for the first time on his 80th birthday, said "it's delicious", and then closed his eyes. I cried twice, and he opened his eyes: "There is another regret. I haven't touched a woman's hand in eighty years. You can think of something else." - This time he really closed his eyes. From this beginning, three lines of words will fill a lifetime. • A cuckold: The master has a cuckold, which was given to him by Wang Gangdan from the village, saying that the master writes Spring Festival couplets well - but the master cannot write. I dug this hat out of Master's belongings and wore it all my life. Someone asked and I said this is the color of spring. • Two portraits: one is the girl that the master has hidden all his life, and the paint on her chest has been touched; the other is the real person I found in the vegetable market. She told me with a smile: "Every time your master looks at the painting, he always says, 'It's too beautiful, don't make the Bodhisattva angry'. In fact, it's because his own heartbeat is too loud." • A troubled time in Chang'an: wars, dead people, and cannibalism. I survived by using the skills my master taught me - chopping firewood, begging for alms, fighting, and killing people. An inkstone is exchanged for food, a stick is used to guard the city gate, and a green hat is used to remember a person. • A true saying: Finally I understood - Master's regret was not that he had never touched a woman's hand, but that he did not have the courage to hold it. So what he held was just a cuckold and a faded portrait. --- Reading Guide ✓ Lightning Protection Guide: There are no cheats, no system, and not even an "ending" in the traditional sense. ✓ Reading suggestion: Read slowly. Each section is short, but there is something behind each section. You can pause for a moment when you read the sentence "The thing to abstain from in the Jingse Temple is never sex, but sex." ✓ Special note: Cuckolding is really a compliment here. You will understand after reading this. ---Personal review What impressed me most about this article was that it changed "regret" into "consummation". The master had never touched a woman's hand in his life, but his regret was passed on to his apprentice. The apprentice went down the mountain, found the person in the portrait, and held her hand - for the master. The master has been wearing a cuckold all his life, and the apprentice has also been wearing it all his life - for him. This is called inheritance. It's not about passing on scriptures or Dharma, it's about passing on an unfinished thought. The writing style is very clean, like an old monk knocking on a wooden fish, one at a time, not sensational but hitting the point. "She held my hand very hard, with a piercing look in her eyes" "His throat was bitten by a dog, and a red fountain spewed out of the hole" "The cuckold trembled slightly in the spring breeze, like a real leaf" - these sentences are not enough to be read once. I watched the last part about Peony ending three times. The young monk asked where he practiced cultivation and was told Jise Temple. The young monk said he had never heard of it. Yes, no more. But if something is gone, is it no longer there? The wind blew and the petals fell all over. He said he understood. I understand too! ---
