Shang Jianyao turned around and said to Bai Chen in the driver's seat:

"Stop the car."

Bai Chen did not refuse because Jiang Baimian did not immediately suppress Shang Jianyao's behavior.

When the jeep slowed down and stopped on the side of the road, Shang Jianyao pushed open the door and went straight to Palanga, asking persistently:

"What exactly does the great calamity mean?"

Palanga, wearing dusty patched clothes, lowered his head and walked forward step by step as before.

Shang Jianyao adjusted his pace so that he could walk side by side:

"Master, you and I are both members of the Buddhist sect. We are compassionate and take it as our duty to save all sentient beings. Why don't you tell us and the world about the great tribulation openly and honestly, so that everyone can prepare in advance?"

Still very elegant... Driving on the jeep next to him at an extremely slow speed, Jiang Baimian and Gnawa had exchanged places and moved closer to the window next to this side.

Shang Jianyao had already pressed down the car window before.

Palanga finally spoke:

“My ‘Ascetic Ministry’ does not talk about compassion and has no intention to save all sentient beings.

"Buddha is a teacher, not a savior."

With Shang Jian Yao's ability to make nonsense, he was actually a little choked at this moment.

He quickly adjusted his thinking:

"Then can you tell me why you can't tell me the details of the catastrophe?"

Palanga lowered his head slightly and clasped his hands:

"Namo Ayodoro Samyak Sambodhi."

"Master, are you trying to test my understanding?" Shang Jianyao suddenly became excited.

Jiang Baimian, who was listening in, couldn't help but want to cover his face.

Palanga did not respond to Shang Jianyao, and just led the group of ascetics forward.

Shang Jianyao walked a few steps quickly, followed him, rubbed his chin and said:

"Master, since you don't want to talk about it, I won't force you to do anything.

"I remember you said before that 'the omen has appeared and a great disaster is coming'. Can you tell me what the 'omen' refers to?"

He was completely free from the shame of asking questions repeatedly but not receiving answers.

Palanga's steps paused.

He finally raised his head, looked sideways at Shang Jianyao, and said in a very complicated tone:

"The Holy Land is beginning to collapse."

"Buddhist holy land?" Shang Jianyao opened his eyes slightly and asked.

Palanga returned to his previous state, lowered his head, clasped his hands, and whispered the Buddha's name:

"Namo Ayodoro Samyak Sambodhi."

Shang Jianyao did not ask any more questions, but changed the topic with great interest:

"Mage, what conditions need to be met before you are willing to share the great tribulation?"

Palanga was not annoyed by being pestered all the time, and simply replied:

"I will naturally say it when I need to say it."

Shang Jianyao's facial muscles were obviously distorted:

"I hate communicating with you monks!

"Can't speak human language!"

Obviously, these monks include "Pudu Zen Master".

Palanga turned her head and glanced at this guy, seeming a little surprised why he even scolded herself.

Soon, he said thoughtfully:

"There is no sign of self, no sign of no one, no sign of sentient beings, no sign of life-spans, now that I have seen the Tathagata."

Pudu Zen Master Shang Jianyao scratched his head, not quite understanding.

This Yehu Chan felt ashamed of himself, clasped his hands together and said:

"Namo Ayodoro Samyak Sambodhi, the poor monk will not disturb the Master."

He turned around, quickly ran to the side of the jeep, and opened the door.

Jiang Baimian motioned to Gennava to lean against the window on the other side, and squeezed in to free up a seat.

After Shang Jianyao got into the car and sat firmly, Bai Chen stepped on the accelerator and let the Jeep start running.

It didn't take long for them to drive away the group of ascetics in Palanga so much that they couldn't even see the taillights of the car.

After driving for another five or six minutes, Shang Jianyao suddenly slapped his thigh:

"It turns out we were wronged!"

"Ah?" Not only Long Yuehong, Bai Chen, Jiang Baimian and Gnawa also made doubtful sounds.

Isn’t this thinking too jumpy?

Shang Jianyao explained sternly:

"The destruction of those Buddhist holy places is a sign of the impending disaster. Whether we are involved or not, the same result will occur.

"It can no longer be said that we destroyed those Buddhist holy places, we just happened to do it!"

The more he spoke, the more earnest and sincere his words became.

It turned out to be somewhat crooked... Jiang Baimian said "ha":

"You might as well say that we are just tools arranged, and if you want to blame it, it's the mastermind behind it.

"It's like I gave you a shot. It's me you have to blame, not the gun."

"Yes, yes." Long Yuehong also felt that the "Old Tune Group" could not take the blame for destroying the Buddhist Holy Land.

Shang Jianyao instantly became serious:

"However, from another perspective, it can be seen that certain schools of Buddhism expected the destruction of holy places.

"This may really be related to the so-called 'catastrophe'."

Just as Long Yuehong was about to nod, Shang Jianyao added:

"Some people think that the destruction of the old world was not complete enough?"

"Uh..." Long Yuehong's heart sank.

If the destruction of the old world were to happen again, the "Pangu creatures" might not be able to survive even if they were hidden underground.

Only then did he feel that life was full of ambition!

"What is supposed to come will come sooner or later." Jiang Baimian used these words to summarize the discussion just now.

Fear is inevitable.

…………

In the evening, the "old tune group" arrived at a primeval forest with extremely beautiful scenery.

They found a ranger's hut left over from the old world on the edge, cleared away the vines piled on the surface, and simply tidied up the messy room.

"Those who are not on duty tonight will sleep inside." After a brief dinner, Jiang Baimian gave the order.

The honest Gennava volunteered:

"You can all sleep in the room, and I'll stay outside.

"You can't charge it here anyway. In sleep mode, I can still react to the movements around me to a certain extent."

"No." Jiang Baimian shook his head, "There is no need to worry about the disadvantages being few and the disadvantages being uneven."

She immediately made further arrangements:

"Tonight, Heixian and I will stay on duty. Xiaobai and Xiaohong will sleep in the room. Laoge will rest in the car and use the solar charging panel to restore some blood."

"Okay!" Shang Jianyao agreed very quickly.

Of course Long Yuehong had no objection and chose the default.

After eating for a while and finishing the internal discussion meeting, Jiang Baimian strapped on a "short neck" submachine gun and said to Bai Chen and Long Yuehong:

"You guys should rest."

She pushed open the door of the ranger's hut and walked out into the darkness.

Shang Jianyao and Gnawa followed closely behind, and the former even closed the door very carefully.

Suddenly, the inside of the cabin became extremely quiet.
