Summary
I’m a fisherwoman who lives by the river. One day, I fished up an old man with a white beard. With his last breath, he said to me, “Young lady, as long as you take me back, you’ll enjoy endless wealth and glory for the rest of your life.” Amitabha. Could this be the legendary carp spirit? Without another word, I kicked him back into the water. He thrashed and flailed in the river, gulping down several mouthfuls of water. “I told you to take me back to the palace! Not send me off to see King Yama!”
