In the hustle and bustle of the prosperous metropolis, Ms. Chen was like a hardworking bee, shuttling between high-rise buildings every day, constantly striving for life and dreams. As a young and energetic white-collar worker, she had to endure long and tiring commutes every day. In the early morning, before the first ray of sunlight had fully illuminated the city streets, she would rush out of the door, squeeze into the crowded subway or bus, and start a new day among the jostling crowds. At night, when the city was brightly lit, she dragged her tired body and embarked on the journey home again. Often, by the time she got home, the stars were already twinkling and the moonlight was like water.

However, the waves of fate quietly rose on an ordinary night. It was a freezing cold late night. Ms. Chen had just finished a busy day at work and was driving home. The street lamps on both sides of the road emitted a dim yellow light. There were few vehicles on the road, and the whole city seemed to be immersed in sleep. Suddenly, a car rushed out from a side road at a high speed. Due to the excessive speed and poor visibility, it crashed straight into Ms. Chen's car. At that moment, the huge impact made her heart race instantly, and her eyes were filled with terror. Fortunately, the car accident was not serious. There were only some scratches on the vehicle, but this sudden incident left a deep shadow of fear in Ms. Chen's heart. Since then, every time she went out, she was trembling with fear, as if shrouded in a layer of gloom. Those once-familiar streets and roads now seemed full of unknown dangers.

By chance, when Ms. Chen was browsing the web, she accidentally entered a website named "taoismtop". This website was like a mysterious cultural treasure trove, exuding an ancient and profound aura. It introduced in detail a lot of knowledge and items related to Taoist culture. Among the numerous pieces of information, the introduction of jade ornaments caught her attention deeply. According to the website, in the long-standing and extensive Taoist culture system, jade is regarded as a precious gem with powerful and mysterious forces. It contains the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and can dispel the evil gloom. Like a silent guardian deity, it protects the wearer from being invaded by inauspicious external qi and ensures their peace and smoothness. Its smooth texture and soft luster are not only the meticulous carving of nature but also symbols of auspiciousness and tranquility, on which people place deep hopes and blessings.

A strong desire surged in Ms. Chen's heart, as if she saw a glimmer of hope in the darkness. With piety and expectation, she carefully selected and bought a beautiful jade pendant. The moment the pendant was in her hands, a cool and smooth feeling came from her fingertips, bringing some comfort to her tired mind. She carefully hung it on the rearview mirror inside the car. The pendant shone with a soft light under the soft light inside the car, as if it was telling an ancient oath of guardianship.

Since then, every time she got into the car, Ms. Chen would subconsciously touch the jade pendant. As her fingertips gently slid across the smooth surface of the jade and she felt the warm breath it emitted, a sense of peace and tranquility would arise spontaneously, gradually dispelling the deep fear in her heart. The jade pendant seemed to have become a bridge between her and the ancient Taoist wisdom. Every touch was like drawing an invisible force, making her feel more at ease during the drive.

A few months passed in the blink of an eye. Ms. Chen welcomed a rare holiday and decided to take a road trip to relax her tense body and mind. Along the way, the sun was shining brightly and the scenery was picturesque, and her mood was particularly pleasant. However, when she was driving on a mountain road, a runaway truck suddenly appeared in front of her and was rushing towards her car. At this critical moment, Ms. Chen's mind went blank, but her hands subconsciously grasped the steering wheel tightly while she prayed silently in her heart. Just as the truck was about to hit her car, it was as if a mysterious force pushed her car, enabling her to miraculously avoid this terrible disaster. Her car passed by the edge of the truck and finally stopped steadily on the side of the road. Ms. Chen sat in the driver's seat, still in shock, with her back soaked in sweat and her heart still beating violently. But when her eyes fell on the jade pendant, which was still intact inside the car, an indescribable feeling of gratitude and awe welled up in her heart.

This thrilling experience made Ms. Chen even more convinced that the jade pendant was not just an ordinary decoration but a symbol carrying the mysterious protective power in Taoist culture. It was like a loyal guardian, silently safeguarding her travel safety and helping her avoid many potential dangers on the road of life. In daily life, Ms. Chen also gradually found that since she wore the jade pendant, it seemed that many trivial troubles had decreased a lot. The problems at work could always be easily solved, interpersonal relationships became more harmonious and 融洽，and those minor illnesses that had once bothered her no longer came as frequently. She truly felt that she was surrounded by a warm and powerful force, and life had become smooth and peaceful.

As time went by, Ms. Chen's emotional bond with the jade pendant grew deeper. It witnessed her joys and sorrows and accompanied her through countless journeys. Whenever she told her friends about this experience, there would be a strange glimmer in her eyes, and her words were full of admiration and praise for Taoist culture. And her story also quietly spread among her friends, becoming a much-told tale about the protection of mysterious forces. It made more people become interested in the ancient and mysterious wisdom and power in Taoist culture, eager to explore the secrets of guardianship hidden in the long river of time and long for finding their own peace and safety in life.
