The woman named Yu Gui kneeled before the Buddha statue, praying earnestly.
That day, the Buddha Ancestor finally manifested.
"Amitabha Buddha! Where sincerity resides, even metal and stone will open. Devotee, do you pray so fervently just to see that man once more?" the Buddha Ancestor asked, with his hands together, a visage of compassionate grief nodding in enquiry.
"Buddha Ancestor, all I ask is to see him one more time, even if it's just a glance, then I will have no regrets," Yu Gui prayed devoutly.
"As you plant, so you reap. For this attachment, you must forsake all that you have now, including your current life. Are you still willing?" the Buddha Ancestor asked.
In this world, there are always those madly in love; as once the Venerable Ape was mad for the sword, the young woman was mad for love. She nodded, saying without regret or rancor.
