"What you have seen is only their evil, not their good." Lord Judge sighed, feeling a bit melancholy and said, "It’s just like those whose sins are beyond measure; haven’t they also had moments of good thoughts and charitable deeds? Humans have two sides, not to mention the mounts of great gods, beings who have lived countless ages; they create hardships for Monk Tang and commit evil in the human world, choosing selectively to do so, letting their sins exceed their good, and they are indeed masters at playing with karma."

"Masters at playing with karma?" Little Taotie blinked his eyes.

"How should I explain it to you..." Judge thought for a moment and calmly said, "Take those philanthropists in the human world as an example. Many of them are engaged in businesses that themselves are tremendously evil, like opening casinos, bars, and breeding farms. Do you think these businesses are inherently good?"

Little Taotie nodded: "Gambling is wrong, drinking and driving is wrong, encouraging drinking is wrong, breeding... is a trade, and trade involves killing, which is also wrong... All are doing bad deeds."

A child’s summary is always so straightforward.

Judge sighed, "They madly accumulate wealth through these trades, and in their old age, they achieve great enlightenment, deeply regret, and generously distribute their wealth, doing charitable deeds. So, would you say in their lifetime, were they evil people or good people?"

Little Taotie was bewildered, somewhat confused.

Clearly they were great evil people, yet in the end... it seems they turned into great good people.

"I’m confused." Little Taotie’s tender voice was soft and sticky.

Judge was amused: "In my book, everyone has a ledger, recording all their deeds of good and evil. In the end, it’s seen whether good outweighs evil or vice versa. That’s why Buddhists say a phrase, ’Lay down the butcher’s knife and become a Buddha instantly,’ which has some reason."

Little Taotie blinked his eyes, still apparently dazed.

Judge patiently explained, "For example, a person runs a gambling setup, causing someone to lose all their money; because their money was lost, they couldn’t afford medical treatment for their sick elderly mother, their wife left them because the rice jar was empty, and the children became emaciated from hunger. In the end, this family breaks down and the gambler meets a terrible fate, which is a great evil."

Little Taotie nodded: "Great evil!"

Judge slowly said, "Who hasn’t made mistakes in their youth? The human world is an experience and understanding itself. Without mistakes, there would be no merit or fault. But in old age, he deeply regrets, distributes his wrongful wealth, helps ten patients who couldn’t afford treatment, saves their lives, and assists children who couldn’t afford school and food, thereby preventing ten families from breaking apart. Is this great good?"

Little Taotie nodded: "Great good!"

"Oh, I’m not a sister, I’m almost forty."

Little Taotie blinked and looked at the angelic face without a trace of time, "Sister?"

"Hehe, my face is indeed misleading. I practice muscle-building, so I don’t lose protein, keeping my skin so well maintained." The brawny woman self-indulgently touched her face, smiling: "Let’s work out together in the future. Look, aren’t my muscles beautiful?"

She flaunted her muscles.

Little Taotie was used to this display, having had a female bodyguard before who was also muscular and liked to show off her muscle.

Little Taotie reached out boldly and touched them.

Hua Jinyan: "..." She seems to like muscles?

Little Taotie nodded earnestly: "Very elastic, feels great."
