Golden Ao Island.
Daoist Duobao and Zhao Gongming argued endlessly.
They might not have eaten pork, but surely they'd seen pigs run.
The two clasped their hands in Buddhist greetings and occasionally said things like "Amitabha" and "May Buddha show mercy." They looked so ridiculous they seemed a few bricks short.

Old Master Taiqing said coolly.
