Centenarian Daoist Lin Lei sings while gleaning leftover grain. When Zigong questions his joyless life, he claims worldly detachment brings longevity and peace. He views life and death as natural cycles, a wisdom Confucius greatly admires.
Whatever I do, I leave some part of it unfinished; that way the Creator will not frown on me and the ghosts and spirits will not be able to harm me.
