A first-level evildoer almost cried as he ran up, nearly clutching Bai Chuwei's skirt: "Ancestor, please take me out. I promise to cultivate well in the future and never commit any crimes. I swear to the heavens, if I do anything evil again, let me be struck by lightning!"
"Ancestor, I know I was wrong too. Please take me out. Even the criminals outside can be released after serving their sentence and reforming. If they behave well in prison, their sentences can be reduced." Another evildoer wept and pleaded, "Hualing, the Prison Governor, can vouch for me. He always says the apples from the trees I planted taste good. I've genuinely worked hard to reform."
