Is it up to the disciples to decide whether to be a Taoist or a horse fairy?

Hello, Brother Amitabha, it can be said that it is decided by the disciples, but it is not the disciples' mind, but the skills and cultivation. Whether the fairy family can't get out or not, there is a task when they come. People with poor foundation and cultivation have to go out to work by themselves, which is called Ma Xian. If mortals have a good foundation and self-cultivation, they can run a secret public called Daoxian.
