In an ancient and prosperous country, there is a merchant named Zhang Ming. Zhang Ming is astute and capable. His business is booming and he often needs to go on long trips to expand business and negotiate cooperation. His wife, Lin Yue, is gentle, kind, beautiful and deeply in love with Zhang Ming. Every time Zhang Ming goes on a long journey, Lin Yue is always full of worry and prays day and night for his safe return.

 

One day, Lin Yue accidentally heard from a chat with her neighbor that there is a Taoist priest with profound spiritual power in a Taoist temple who is good at drawing magical peace talismans. It is said that this peace talisman has mysterious power and can protect the wearer from danger and ensure safety. Lin Yue's heart moved as if she saw a glimmer of hope. She decided to go to the Taoist temple and ask the Taoist priest to draw a peace talisman for her husband.

 

After dressing up carefully, Lin Yue embarked on the journey to the Taoist temple. The Taoist temple is located on a secluded mountain, surrounded by clouds and mist, just like a fairyland. Lin Yue climbed up the winding mountain road with difficulty, her heart full of expectations. Finally, she came to the gate of the Taoist temple. The gate of the Taoist temple is simple and solemn, engraved with mysterious runes and patterns.

 

Lin Yue gently pushed open the gate and walked into the Taoist temple. Inside the Taoist temple, it is peaceful and serene, with incense smoke curling up. She saw a Taoist priest with white hair and a childlike face meditating. Lin Yue respectfully walked in front of the Taoist priest and knelt down to ask for his help. She told about her worry about her husband and the magical effect of the peace talisman that she had heard about, hoping that the Taoist priest could draw a peace talisman for her husband.

 

The Taoist priest opened his eyes and looked at this sincere woman in front of him. A wave of emotion welled up in his heart. He nodded slightly and said, "Your sincerity is touching. I can draw a peace talisman for your husband, but the power of the peace talisman is not absolute. It also requires your husband's own kindness and courage."

 

The Taoist priest got up and went to a quiet room. He took out a yellow talisman paper and a cinnabar pen. He closed his eyes, calmed his mind and concentrated, feeling the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. After a moment, the Taoist priest opened his eyes, and there was a mysterious light flashing in his eyes. He picked up the cinnabar pen and drew the peace talisman on the talisman paper stroke by stroke. Each stroke contains the Taoist priest's profound spiritual power and blessings for all living beings.

 

The pattern on the peace talisman is complex and mysterious, as if containing the mysteries between heaven and earth. After the Taoist priest finished drawing, he handed the peace talisman to Lin Yue and told her to make her husband wear it on his body when traveling and must not be negligent at all. Lin Yue was extremely grateful and took the peace talisman and carefully put it away.

 

Soon, Zhang Ming was going on a long journey again. Lin Yue gave the peace talisman to her husband and told him to wear it well. Although Zhang Ming was a little skeptical, seeing his wife's sincerity, he couldn't bear to refuse, so he wore the peace talisman on his body.

 

During the journey, Zhang Ming encountered many dangers. Once, he took a boat to a distant place. On the way, he suddenly encountered a violent storm. The wind howled and the waves were raging. The ship swayed violently in the waves and was in danger of capsizing at any time. Zhang Ming was filled with fear. He tightly grasped the ship's railing and prayed that he could safely survive this disaster.

 

At this critical moment, Zhang Ming suddenly felt a warm power emanating from the peace talisman on his body. This power seemed to be protecting him, making the fear in his heart gradually dissipate. Miraculously, the storm soon passed and the ship safely reached its destination.

 

Another time, when Zhang Ming was passing through a mountain forest, he encountered a group of bandits. The bandits held sharp blades and pounced on Zhang Ming ferociously. Zhang Ming was panicked and wanted to run away but found that he was surrounded. Just when he was in despair, the peace talisman on his body once again emitted a mysterious light. When the bandits saw this light, they were immediately too scared to approach. Zhang Ming took the opportunity to escape and save his life.

 

After experiencing many dangers and turning dangers into safety, Zhang Ming gradually believed in the power of the peace talisman. He knew that it was his wife's deep affection and the Taoist priest's blessing that were protecting him. When he finally completed this long journey and returned home, he hugged his wife tightly, his eyes full of gratitude and love.

 

Zhang Ming is also full of awe for the power of Taoism. He decided to go to the Taoist temple in person to express his gratitude to the Taoist priest. The Taoist priest looked at Zhang Ming and said with a smile, "The peace talisman is just a symbol. The real power comes from the kindness and courage in your heart. As long as you remain kind and bravely face the difficulties in life, you will naturally be blessed by heaven."

 

From then on, Zhang Ming cherished his relationship with his wife even more and often did good deeds and accumulated virtue. And that peace talisman has also become a family heirloom of their family, symbolizing love and protection. In this world full of mystery and miracles, the wisdom and power of Taoism are like a bright lamp, illuminating people's way forward.
