Xiaoyao returns to the monastery, only to come face-to-face with the new abbot, an imposing figure feared by not-a-few of the monks.
Later, he is able to clear up many misconceptions regarding the trigrams Qián (Heaven), Kūn (Earth), Kǎn (Abyss) and Lí (Brightness)
Little does he know that this simple conversation will cast him on a journey toward the green and pacific island of Formosa.
Qián (☰)
Kūn (☷)
Kǎn (☵)

SHOW NOTES:
Xiaoyao Xingzhe, the self-styled carefree pilgrim, has lived and worked all over the world, having crossed the Gobi in a decrepit jeep, lived with a solitary monk in the mountains of Korea, dined with the family of the last emperor of China, and helped police with their enquiries in Amarillo, Texas.
