Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Plan for Journey to the West

"The crisis has been lifted. Look down, there's a hexagonal prism metal element on your right foot, plug it into the Wasteland Helper's data port. ”

After reading the information, Xuanzang first looked up and looked around, knowing that Erlang God had reactivated prism monitoring on his own initiative, otherwise it would be impossible to know everything about the environment he was in. There is no way, in extraordinary times, as long as Shen Fang is followed later, Erlang God will be jealous, and it is impossible to monitor it at any time like this.

Xuanzang picked up the hexagonal prism at his feet and connected it to the wasteland assistant as he said. Its tail split into six pieces as it approached the data interface, which rotated open to reveal an unusual probe. The probe is inserted into the interface, and a few thin pins are stretched out from the side to fix itself, and the whole device also undergoes a wonderful transformation, and finally the data interface is completely sealed and turned into a part of the wasteland assistant.

The small light on the top of the unit began to blink at a steady frequency, feeding the signal back, and new news soon followed.

"It's a special prism plug-in that you can use to record what you see when necessary, and it will automatically return the data to me when the transmission is secure.

"There's a lot of variables at the moment. I'm investigating the reason for Guanyin's early action, and I'm not sure if she's noticed the anomaly. One of the most recent effects of this move is that Tai Bai Xing has not yet learned that the scripture study team has set off early. The first hurdle you will face on the road to learning the scriptures can only be overcome by your own strength.

"Report the details of Shenfang's communication with Guanyin as soon as possible, and make further contact with Shenfang to understand his specific skills."

In this way, I have been greatly pitted. Those guys set up the disaster and rescue soldiers themselves, and now they have changed the time of the disaster, but they deliberately did not notify the rescuers, isn't this to kill the people?

The first batch of rescues turned out to be Tai Bai Xing, which was really a big battle. But why deliberately keep him in the dark......

From this change, Xuanzang speculated that Guanyin might be trying to put the heavens together in this way.

Heavenly Court has never cared much about mortal affairs, and those who observe and experiment with black-robed people like Erlang God are also in their own formations. They are more engaged in research on their own, and the most frequent communication with the world is probably only the release of viruses and the like.

In contrast, Buddhism is more accessible. They have their own set of ideas and are keen to instill it in the mortal population. Chanting machine, reincarnation network, and karmic statistics, these are all ways to play in the West.

However, the drones of the heavenly court still have a lot of status in the hearts of mortals, such as the rain master, such as the land, and the soul-hooking robots in the underworld. Although Heavenly Court does not like to engage in spiritual rule like Xitian, the technological products of its subordinates still affect many mundane things related to survival.

For the remnants of humanity in the wasteland, it doesn't really matter which side of the religion is worshipped. In people's eyes, the two are one, and as long as they can bless them to live, they are good immortals.

But the Buddhas were obviously not satisfied with this, so they planned a journey to the west.

Heavenly Court is willing to cooperate, probably because there are many parts of the plan proposed in the early stage that are conducive to spreading the Tao and the Dharma, and Heavenly Court does not want the beliefs of ordinary people to be completely controlled by Buddhism.

However, now that Guanyin has come to such a move, it should be the internal struggle mentioned by Yang Jian that the Heavenly Court made a mistake in the Journey to the West.

It's just that the platinum star will really be tricked?

Xuanzang reported in detail to Yang Jian the appearance of Guanyin that day, and when he was putting away the keyboard, there was a knock on the door of the residence. "Mr. Xuanzang, Lord Supervisor, please come over."

Remember about immigration? It just so happened that he himself had something to say to Li Shimin.

Xuanzang came to the reception room and found that Shenfang was actually there.

Li Shimin stepped forward, invited Xuanzang to take a seat, and then said: "I won't go around the bend, Mr. Xuanzang, I asked you to ask you if you are interested in joining Master Shenfang's scripture-learning team?" ”

"Huh?" Actually took the initiative to invite yourself to join the team? Xuanzang thought that after the reactor accident, he would be trapped by programming skills, so he stayed in Chang'an to train engineers; Or to assist Li Shimin in completing the immigration, isn't this what he asked for an answer a few days ago?

In fact, I am personally very reluctant, and Mr. Wei Zheng, the chief engineer, firmly disagrees. It's good that you can stay in Chang'an, but we don't have the right to force you to stay and help Chang'an. Your talents belong to you, not to help Chang'an. You are a messenger after all, and you will not stay here forever. However, learning scriptures from the west is a major event to benefit the world, and Master Shenfang also strongly requests, let me persuade you to go west together. Li Shimin explained.

Xuanzang looked at Shenfang, and the other party reciprocated with a perfect smile as always. "Amitabha, if the donor can help the poor monks, he will have great merit. Can the donor accede to this request? Shenfang said.

Xuanzang said in his heart: Why are you two asking me, it is clear that they have made a decision for me in partnership...... That's what I wanted, but why?

Li Shimin said: "I have been discussing with the master for a long time in the past few days, and I think that this is a long way to go, and we must have a strong guide. So the master recommended Mr. Xuanzang, who is the messenger, and I also think that you are indeed the best candidate. ”

How does Shenfang know his Messenger? I only told Xia An and Li Shimin about this...... But seeing that the two of them didn't look different, Xuanzang put this matter aside for the time being. After pretending to excuse himself, he acquiesced, and then asked Li Shimin for the specific itinerary.

"It was initially decided that after leaving Chang'an, we would march north, out of the desert, and then take the west. There are some mountains that can only be detoured along the way, and there are some rivers that need to be crossed, and the route is more complicated. And this is a route designed according to maps from old documents, see here. Li Shimin walked to the projection screen, pointed to a point on the electronic map, and said, "This is the farthest point that the Chang'an expedition team has reached, and it is up to 50 kilometers out of the desert, which is the range we can control." If you go any further, you don't know what the situation is, so you can only improvise. ”

"Is this positioning accurate?" Xuanzang couldn't help but walk to the map to take a closer look. As far as he knows, all civilian satellites have long been shot down, and they are all scrapped in orbit.

"It's the coordinates found in the vault database, and after field research and correction, the error is not large for the northern part, and the distance from the desert is accurate."

In this way, it is really a long way, and I have fallen so far away. Xuanzang looked at this route that almost spanned both ends of the map, and his thoughts were full of thoughts.

Li Shimin also said: "In terms of staffing, I plan to assign all the elites of the advance team of immigrants to you, and the materials prepared for the immigrants in the past have basically been invested in the team to learn from the experience. ”

Shen Fang made a Buddha salute and thanked Li Shimin. Xuanzang sighed in his heart, this time he was really willing to spend his blood.

It's a little weird, though.

In their previous conversations, Li Shimin had always expressed his hope that the sentient beings of Chang'an would be able to get out of the shelter and rebuild civilization in the open outside world. Why are you so enthusiastic about learning from the scriptures now? If you really succeed in retrieving the scriptures, won't you renew the life of the refuge?

Xuanzang concealed the doubts in his heart and secretly observed Li Shimin's performance. The three of them talked for a while, and finally set an auspicious day, just waiting for departure.

After the talks, Li Shimin sent the two out of the gate and told them to prepare well. After saying goodbye to Shenfang at the intersection, Xuanzang thought about it, turned back to his place, and found that Li Shimin was still at the door, showing a meaningful smile to himself.
