Chapter 172 Borrowing Books(1/2)

No one could answer Shang Jianyao's question, only Long Yuehong seriously thought about why the old monk chose to jump off the building instead of hanging himself in order to cut off his body.

Maybe hanging himself will appear weak? He compared it repeatedly and could only find such an explanation.

At this time, the pictures seen by several members of the "Old Tuning Group" have returned to normal, leaving only simple furniture and slightly mottled walls around.

Jiang Baimian withdrew his gaze from the front and smiled as a self-deprecating smile:

"I used to think that the 'Crystal Consciousness Cult' is different from the monk's sect, and it truly restores Buddhist teachings from the old world.

“Now it seems that Master Janaga is relatively special and compassionate.

"Well... the scenes just now reminded me of the cult in the old world entertainment materials.

"Think about it, on a dim night, a dark and wide hall, a gray-robed monk gathered from all directions, overlapping different horizons, watching all these Buddha statues quietly, claiming to have achieved the right result but suddenly jumped off the top of the temple and fell out of the brain... Are they really worshipping evil gods?"

"Evil Buddha." Shang Jianyao corrected Jiang Baimian's words.

Long Yue nodded and said with emotion:

"Indeed, I feel so furious when I think about what happened just now."

Bai Chen recalled:

"Even if the 'Crystal Consciousness Cult is evil, it will not be too evil. It is definitely better than the monks' sect.

"When I was in the first city, I didn't hear that they did anything excessive. Evil should be targeting internal members."

Obviously, Bai Chen hated the mechanical monks' purity method and even had a very low evaluation of the monks' sect.

Jiang Baimian thought carefully for a while and exhaled:

“Go to sleep.

"If I can't find a chance to escape tomorrow and have nothing to do, I will borrow the 'Crystal Consciousness Teaching' from the monks who delivered the meal to see how their ideas differ from the monks' sect and some Buddhist scriptures left over from the Old World."

She talked about finding an opportunity to escape openly, and was not afraid that Janaga would "hear" it.

Anyway, the "old commissioning team" said that they had accepted their fate and were willing to stay for ten days, but no one believed it.

So, Shang Jianyao took a bed first.

Jiang Baimian then glanced at Bai Chen:

"You go to bed first, Xiaohong and I will watch the night."

She pointed to another empty bed.

Even if they are under supervision, even if they are in the Sikaro Temple of the "Crystal Consciousness Sect", they dare not be careless and still maintain the habit of taking turns to stay at night.

Janaga is a good person with compassion, and does not mean that other monks are the same.

Among them, there is a high probability that there are types of mental states that are not right, and the evil incident that just happened made every member of the "old commissioning group" be wary.

As for why they are regrouped, it is because Jiang Baimian wants to ensure that every group of people on the night has the ability to sense human approaching.

"Okay." Bai Chen had no doubts.

At this time, the struggling "Galibad" reached the limit of her physical fitness and fell asleep again.

…………

No words all night.

Not long after the sun rose, Han Wanghuo, Zeng Duo and Gnava took an old radio transceiver they traded to, drove away from the wilderness wanderer settlement and returned to the black wasteland from the mountains on the north bank.

"There is a small team of hunters over there." Han Wanghuo, who was driving, looked into the distance and said, "Do we go over and ask for directions and leave some traces?"

"Yes." Gnava, who was in the middle of the back row, answered.

Zeng Duo was a little stunned because she hadn't seen any small hunter team.

After the vehicle drove for a few more seconds, she discovered that there was a multi-purpose car far away.

His eyesight is so good? Zeng Duo turned his head to look at Han Wanghu in surprise.

It is not surprising that the intelligent robot Gnava can distinguish things at that distance, but as an ordinary human, Han Wanghou can do such a thing?

Thinking of Han Wanghuo's yellowed white eyes, Zeng Duo said thoughtfully in his heart:

"He has distortion, too?"

Soon, Zeng Duo recovered and responded to Han Wanghou's proposal:

"sure."

Han Wanghuo immediately drove the vehicle behind a small mound, and while simply pretending to be disguised, he said to Gnava:

“You stay here and make a response.

"We can't let others know that there are only three people left, so they have to think that there are more people hiding here."

Gnava was quite satisfied with Han Wanghou's easy admission that he was a "person":

"no problem."

After he pushed the door and got out of the car, he found a good location to "hide". Han Wanghou drove a dark black off-road and carried Zeng Duo to approach the white utility vehicle.

When the two sides were still a long distance away, Han Wanghuo took the initiative to stop, poked out his body, waved his hand, and shouted loudly:

"I want to ask something!"

If you don’t say hello in advance and just go through this, you can easily be regarded as a robber or a part-time robber’s remains hunter.

The white utility vehicle also stopped, and a man wearing an old world cowboy hat walked out of the passenger seat.

He was wearing a white shirt and an open brown vest, with a revolver around his waist and a sharp dagger in his hand.

The man with rough skin and full of rain and wind blowing marks looked at Han Wanghou in the distance for a few seconds and responded loudly:

"Come here, let's talk about it, it's too hard to shout like this."

He pressed one hand on the revolver on his waist, indicating that he was not unaware of his guard.

Han Wanghuo observed the man and did not start the car immediately.

At this moment, Zeng Duo frowned slightly and said:

"He should have just entered the wasteland for a few days."

This is the judgment made by a ruin hunter who has been hiding in the wasteland for many years.

The water, food and environment here are quite harsh. As long as humans enter, even if they are prepared well, they will become "dirty" and tired after five or six days. They will not be as energetic as the opposite side and their clothes are clean.

Han Wanghou accepted Zeng Duo's judgment and nodded slightly:

"The one that is closer to this is the Chucheng. They came from the Chucheng and must have seen our rewards. With our current 'disguise', he would not be unable to recognize us."

Speaking of this, Han Wanghuo paused:

"Since we have recognized us and let us go, it means they are sure to deal with us, well, before our 'responder' arrives."

"Yes." Zeng Duo looked at the man wearing a cowboy hat a few more times, feeling that his attitude was indeed suspicious.

Han Wanghuo no longer hesitated, and turned the steering wheel while stepping on the accelerator, allowing the deep black off-road to directly turn towards the small mound where Gnava was "hiding".

The man in a cowboy hat sighed disappointed when he saw this scene.

He then took out a walkie-talkie and said in a deep voice:

“The target has been discovered.”

…………

The sixth floor of Sikaro Temple.

Jiang Baimian looked at the young monk who brought a lot of oat bread and clear water and asked with a smile:

"Zen Master, after what happened last night, we have become very interested in the teachings. I wonder if we can borrow a few scriptures to read?"

The young monk quickly lowered his head and pronounced the Buddha's name:

"This is exactly the original intention of our religion."

Jiang Baimian was waiting to thank him, and Shang Jianyao by the window suddenly turned around and asked:

"Why are there many monks going out today?"

"The chief has entered the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, which is the new world that ordinary people call you, so we must send people to the five holy places to hold corresponding ceremonies." The young monk replied calmly.

"Five Holy Lands?" This was the first time Jiang Baimian heard of this term, "Which five are they?"

The young monk shook his head a little embarrassedly:

"The Buddha said: You cannot speak, you cannot speak.

"I can't lie, but I can't answer."

"Why can't you say this?" Jiang Baimian asked in confusion.

The young monk explained simply:

“The five great holy lands are all related to my Buddha Bodhi and the worldly Tathagata, either where they entered the world, or where they came to preach in ancient times in the old world.

"In order not to let outsiders destroy the holy land, we have hidden the corresponding situation as a secret."
