The drought demon is on the rampage, and everyone is running away from the temple. The master says that since he cannot change the fate of yiku, he will give his essence to his mother. He tells her that they agreed to send her and yiku to the temple before he could give her his. He says that he believes that there is another destiny that will allow them to defeat the demon, and that yiku will be able to meet her when she is by his side. He asks her to do everything she can to catch him and stand by him. She tells him that the town is doomed, since even the teacher has been injured by the drought demon. She asks him to stop arguing and to do what he can to protect the lives of the people who have paid for his services. She says that whoever wants to leave the temple should take his robe off and become a disciple of the buddhist.
