"Why are you here, Xing Dian?" "I just want to to thank you." "By tat, you mean..." "Do you recall the invasion by the Gins?" "We, the elders of the monastery" "Bowed to the invaders in order to protect the monastery" "As a result, our religion is humiliated our people killed." "I was an idiot to have violated the rules by fighting against the invaders" "only to be condemned as evil by you." "Thanks to your leniency that I was sentenced to life imprisonment only" "We rely on rules to maintain order" "Rules are meant for good but they turn the monastery to a prison" "Even I, the Abbot, must obey rules" "The rules are outdated" "They're hundred years old" "Things have changed since then" "The 6 months imprisonment is revelatory" "I came to know what buddhism is" "It's relieving mankind from suffering" "Buddha is live" "Duck" "Stringent rules turn this to a prison" "They are coming this way" "You'd rather bow to invasion than to save our people" "The so called tolerance is absurd" "Chief, Xing Dian is with the Abbot."
