Chapter 445: Calamity and chaos
"Hehehe, Master, you still have the most face."

Zhu Bajie tasted the ginseng fruit carefully and said with a chuckle. At this time, even Sun Wukong, who had eaten the peaches from heaven as snacks, was eating them carefully in small bites. After all, peaches were easy to get, but ginseng fruit was really rare.

Qingfeng and Mingyue could only watch this scene with bleeding hearts, watching the group of bandits eat the ginseng fruit that should have belonged to them.

But they had no way of saying their grievances. Even if the matter was brought to the attention of Zhen Yuanzi, both of them would be the ones to be scolded, because Wang Ming knew the content of the original novel. If these two guys were not greedy, he would not have asked Qingfeng and Mingyue to come up with four more.

He did this purely to punish the two dishonest little Taoist boys. Although Wang Ming's intoxicated look now made it difficult for people to accept his self-comforting statement.

Although the four masters and apprentices were very careful when tasting the ginseng fruit, it only took a small fruit a short time to eat, and after a while, the ginseng fruit was eaten up completely.

Wang Ming had no reason to continue finding trouble, so he just gave up. The sky was gradually darkening, and the master and his disciples moved into the guest room arranged by Qingfeng and Mingyue.

After Wang Ming entered the guest room, his mind began to wander, observing the movements of his four apprentices. After all, they were now in the midst of a great calamity, and the calamity energy would cloud people's minds and affect their IQ. Therefore, people who had experienced the calamity sometimes did things that lowered their intelligence. It was not because they were really stupid, but because they were influenced in some way.

Sure enough, what Wang Ming expected happened. Because there were limited guest rooms in Wuzhuang Temple, after all, it might not be able to accommodate guests overnight for tens of thousands of years, so Sun Wukong and the other three all stayed in the same large guest room.

Originally, the three of them would lie down directly, either to practice their skills or to close their eyes to rest. There was no need to sleep for them, after all, they were all immortal-level figures.

If Wang Ming didn't want to be too perfunctory, he would definitely take these three disciples on a rush every day. Not long after they fell into silence, Zhu Bajie, who had his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, and he spoke cautiously in a tentative manner.

"Brother Monkey, Lao Sha, are you guys asleep?"

"Not yet, idiot, what do you want to say?"

"Second Brother, what do you want to do now?"

As soon as Zhu Bajie said this, he received an immediate reply from the two people. It was estimated that the three of them were thinking the same thing. Zhu Bajie also rolled his eyes and said with a smile.

"Did you enjoy the ginseng fruits today? I didn't, how about we go get some more ourselves? I see there are at least a few hundred ginseng fruits on the ginseng fruit tree, and these two little Taoist boys only gave us one each, which is too stingy. We should go get a few secretly and eat them, we shouldn't be discovered."

"That's not good?"

Sha Wujing responded in a naive and honest manner, but in his heart he was actually more eager for the ginseng fruit than Zhu Bajie, because he was the weakest among everyone, and ginseng could really improve his strength, so why not have a few more?

"I think it's okay. If each of us can attack two such large fruit trees, we won't be discovered if we lose six. After all, the Immortal Zhen Yuanzi probably doesn't value the ginseng fruit that much, otherwise he wouldn't have just let two little Taoist children guard it."

Sun Wukong nodded and agreed with Zhu Bajie's idea, which was very rare. They didn't realize that they had fallen into a state of being possessed by a ghost. What they said and did were completely different from what they usually did. This was the consequence of being affected by the calamity energy. The Conferred Gods War was also caused by this reason. A group of powerful people were blinded by the calamity energy and began to fight without any bottom line, just to help the two mortal kingdoms fight for territory.

This scene is actually quite funny when you think about it, and the style of the painting is a bit wrong. This is the horror of the calamity energy, if it is not dissipated in time.

The next thing it affects is the minds of the saints, the representative of whom is Tongtian, who actually dared to attack Hongjun in the late stage of the Battle of the Gods.

Hongjun was naturally aware that the stupid things done by Tongtian were not in his nature, otherwise he would not have been put in solitary confinement for more than just a period of time.

For such an act of killing their master, Hongjun could have simply wiped out Tongtian Jiaozhu, and no one would have had any bad thoughts. The saints even felt that the punishment Hongjun gave to Tongtian Jiaozhu was too light.

Moreover, in the end it was clearly Tongtian who attacked Hongjun, but Hongjun gave three red pills, and each of the Three Pure Ones got one. Isn't this a kind of favoritism and killing the chicken to scare the monkey?

It can also be seen from here that among so many disciples, Hongjun actually prefers Tongtian Patriarch the most. Although he has already become one with the Way of Heaven and his own emotions are gone, he still gives Tongtian Patriarch a break.

From this we can see that if the saints are affected by the calamity energy, the prehistoric continent will usher in a complete doomsday. The destruction of the prehistoric continent by the war of saints is the lightest consequence, and it is even possible that the entire world will be completely reduced to nothingness.

"Then what are we waiting for? Just go for it!"

When Zhu Bajie heard that Sun Wukong and Sha Wujing both agreed to his proposal, he became completely excited. Then the three brothers quietly slipped out of the room and headed towards the ginseng fruit tree behind the Wuzhuang Temple.

Before leaving, they secretly cast a spell and knocked Qingfeng and Mingyue unconscious. These two little Taoist boys couldn't even beat Zhu Bajie, let alone Sun Wukong himself.

So their lurking plan went very smoothly, and what followed was the same development as in the original novel. First, the ginseng fruit that the few people had captured disappeared inexplicably.

Then they dragged the land man out and beat him up, only to find out that the ginseng fruit cannot touch the ground directly. Moreover, these three reckless guys had clearly agreed before they went that each would only take two, but when they left, each of them put a full bag in his pocket, and at least one of them took away a dozen.

In an instant, almost one-tenth of the ginseng fruits on the ginseng fruit tree disappeared, which looked quite conspicuous. After Sun Wukong and his companions returned to the room, they destroyed all the ginseng fruits that night.

It was not until the next morning that Qingfeng and Mingyue woke up from a deep sleep and discovered this incident during their routine inspection of Wuzhuang Temple.

At this time, the four masters and apprentices had packed their luggage and were ready to set off again. Wang Ming pretended not to know about this. After all, he knew that these were all necessary conditions for the disaster to occur.

This calamity cannot be avoided. Even if Wang Ming can avoid it, he must complete it, otherwise this calamity will not count. There were supposed to be eighty-one calamities, so no calamity can be missed. Didn’t you see that there was one calamity missing in the original book? Tathagata had to force the four masters and apprentices to go through a lot before he could barely make up for it.
