Young monk Xuan Qing is tasked by his master to escort Lin Zhaozhao, a general's daughter, to a political marriage in the Western Regions. They are ambushed on the way, and Xuan Qing breaks his vow of non-killing to save Zhaozhao—sparking quiet affection between them amid life and death. On one side are the Buddhist precepts he's followed for 20 years; on the other, Zhaozhao's impending marriage to a stranger. When they reach Yumen Pass, Zhaozhao clutches a secret annulment letter and weeps: "Will you put down your prayer beads and come with me?" Three beads in Xuan Qing's palm have already broken—he fell for her long ago, but fears betraying Buddha... and even more, betraying her.
