Wang answered， Yes， I did use the governments money， but I didnt spend any of it on myself. I used it to buy animals and set them free. So what is there for me to be afraid of? As soon as you chop of my head， I can go to the Pure Land of Amitabha. Isnt that wonderful? I can hardly wait!

　　王回答道：是，我是挪用了公款，但是我并没有把钱花在自己身上。我用它们买了动物放生。我何惧之有?我的头一掉，正好可以到西方净土去。我迫不及待呢!

　　When the officials in charge of the execution heard that， they knew that Wang was honest. They admired his integrity and his calm bravery. They told the executioner to let him go， and pardoned him.

　　监斩官听了以后，他们知道王说的是真的。他们很钦佩他的正直、沉着和刚毅。他们放了他，并且原谅了他。

　　A few years later， when he was thirty， Wang became a monk， and a very good monk he was! He let go of all his petty worries. He achieved enlightenment and wrote several important books. When he died in 975 AD at the age of 72，Amitabha came to take him to the Pure Land.

　　过了几年，三十岁的时候，王出了家，他成为了一个了不起的僧人!他断尽所有的微细烦恼，开悟了，还撰写成了几本重要的书。他于公元975年圆寂，时年72岁，阿弥陀佛亲自接他往生极乐净土。
