"Zhai girl" - a real and special woman in Lijiang area (searchable online). They are physiologically normal but never marry. From the early Ming Dynasty to the Republic of China, under the light of Buddha, they were uniquely bathed in rare customs that had lasted for hundreds of years.
This book is fictionalized based on real customs: a group of young girls in their youth resolutely embarked on the road of chanting Buddha and eating vegetarian food due to various reasons. They did not enter Buddhism and stayed in the mortal world. How far can they go on this unique road? Can you survive countless lonely nights in the hustle and bustle of the world? Can we guard against the lewd and obscene traitors hidden among ordinary people? The mysterious "red spirit" of Zhai girl attracts unscrupulous men to covet her, and the obscure "verse" of the old nun reveals that the world is strange and changeable?
Wang Huizhen became a girl at the age of sixteen, to shine on her family, to protect her younger siblings, and to fulfill her dreams. She listens to horses neighing, she endures humiliation, and she wears gun smoke. Cross the turbulent river of men and climb over the tangled mountain of emotions. Within three inches of the spiritual platform, love, hate, and hatred surge into the mist; in the world of mortals, good, evil, beauty, and ugliness appear in their true form.
Maybe you don't agree with their choice, but you have to respect their protection of faith in the struggle between flesh and spirit, no matter you are a woman - or a man.
Intention: It is difficult to be a girl, but it is even harder to be a Zhai girl. Living is a practice. With good thoughts in your heart, you can become a Buddha immediately.
