A serving of Kung Pao Chicken and a serving of red wine stewed beef. The portions of these two dishes weren't considered much, so the Black and White Deities and Truth Listener quickly finished them. And after they finished eating, they had the feeling of 'Why is there so little?'
However, Di Ting and Black and White Impermanence were immortals, so they could control their appetites.
"Venerable One, no matter how many times I eat the food here, it's always so hard to give up," Xie Bian lamented. Sometimes, he wondered if he wanted to eat the food here, or if he was greedy for the feeling of being a human again.
Maybe both.
Fan Wujiu wiped his lips calmly, but he could not hide the smile at the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that this silent ghost was quite satisfied with Chen Ze's food.
"The taste is very good, and the beef is very soft. Although it's not as good as the celestial cows in the Heavenly Court, it's still a rare delicacy." Di Ting also made its own comment. After that, it spat out an item from its mouth and placed it on the table. Betty's eyes twitched when she saw it.
"Venerable One, this is the cost of the meal." It was obvious that Di Ting had learned a lot from the Black and White Impermanence, so it was very familiar with the food.
"Okay, then … What is this?" Chen Ze walked out of the kitchen. As soon as he walked out, he saw Betty frantically winking at him. Then, he saw the item on the table.
"This is a seed. It's the seed of the Peach of Immortality." As soon as Di Ting spoke, Chen Ze was shocked. He did not expect Di Ting to take out this thing.
"The Peach of Immortality?" Chen Ze wanted to pinch his ears. This is the Peach of Immortality that Sun Wukong secretly ate in the Heavenly Court?
"Yes, Venerable One. Although this may not be a precious item to you, I think this is the only thing that can cover the cost of the meal." Di Ting was a little embarrassed.
"It's okay. I'm still very satisfied." Chen Ze was now immune to the title of Venerable. He picked up the Saturn Peach seed and looked at it. No matter how he looked at it, it was a very ordinary seed. There was no Immortal Qi lingering around it, and there were no colorful lighting effects. If this seed was thrown out, it would probably be mistaken for a fruit core, and the person who threw it out would be criticized.
"By the way, where did this seed come from?" Chen Ze suddenly remembered that in the Journey to the West, there was a description of the peaches of immortality. It seemed to mention that the peaches of immortality were divided into three rows. The peaches in the third row were the most precious. After eating them, one would live as long as the sun and the moon.
"Supremacy, this is the immortal peach tree in the middle. If a mortal were to eat it, they would be able to ascend and live forever," Truth Listener answered quickly.
When Chen Ze heard this, he felt his heart ache for the demons. He didn't know why the lesser demons didn't join forces. Eating Tang Sanzang's meat was nothing. At most, they would gain immortality. It was about the same as the immortal peaches in the second row. Furthermore, they didn't have the effect of ascension.
"By the way, do you know the Battling Buddha, Sun Wukong?" Chen Ze was very curious. He wanted to ask if the world Truth Listener came from originated from the world of the Journey to the West.
Truth Listener was taken aback before feeling a little embarrassed. It never expected Chen Ze to ask such a question.
This immortal peach was given to it by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva by chance. He even said that during the Immortal Peach Banquet, the Battling Buddha had used the immortal peach to mock the Jade Emperor. He said that he could eat as much as he wanted back then, but why did he give so little this time?
Every Immortal Peach Banquet, the Battling Buddha would say such a thing. He even pulled the Buddha of Sandalwood Merit to take the immortal peach with him, saying that he wanted to bring it back for his second, third, and fourth junior brothers to try it.
It angered the Jade Emperor so much that his face darkened. If not for the fact that Gautama Buddha was around, he would have long left in a huff.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva also said that the Cleansed Altar Envoy, the Golden Arhat, and the Eight Division Heavenly Dragon were not qualified to attend the Immortal Peach Banquet. However, because of this unreliable Battling Buddha, they could bask in the glory of the Immortal Peach Banquet.
In a fit of anger, the Jade Emperor simply gave an immortal peach to every immortal with a spiritual divine beast. Although it was not the best immortal peach at the end, it was still the best choice.
This could be considered karma. Truth Listener did not expect that the wild monkey from back then would become the Battling Buddha.
"I know him, Supremacy. The Battling Buddha would occasionally come to the Underworld to discuss the Dharma with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva," Truth Listener answered honestly.
"I see …" Chen Ze fell into deep thought.
If Chen Ze had to pick one of his idols when he was young, it would definitely be Sun Wukong from the Journey to the West. Every time the Journey to the West was shown on the TV, Chen Ze would excitedly watch it. It did not matter if he had watched it many times. He just wanted to see how Monkey Bro fought those demons and ghosts.
Although the excessive consumption of the Six Schools and the Journey to the West later made many people feel a little disgusted, they would definitely not hate the old Monkey Bro. Instead, they would exclaim that a classic was a classic. With the least amount of money and the worst special effects, he managed to create a magnificent masterpiece.
"How about this? Next time, ask the Battling Buddha if he is willing to have a meal at my place?" Chen Ze could not suppress his excitement. This was the Monkey Bro in the real world!
"Okay, Supremacy. I will definitely help you pass the message," Truth Listener said without hesitation. Di Ting said without any hesitation. This restaurant was now famous in the Three Realms. Many immortals were wondering who could open such a restaurant.
After sending off Truth Listener and the Black and White Impermanence, Chen Ze held the immortal peach seed in his hand. He had never planted vegetables before, much less fruit trees. Even if he had Baidu, Chen Ze didn't think he could find out how to plant the immortal peach tree in the Journey to the West.
In the end, Chen Ze decided to follow the method of planting the peach tree. If he wasn't acclimatized, he could ask Monkey Bro for help when he came.
After putting away the seed, Chen Ze returned to the kitchen. Betty was diligently washing the dishes. Chen Ze didn't disturb her. Instead, he took out his phone and browsed through how to plant the peach tree.
After looking at it for a while, Chen Ze felt that he could do it. It was said that Hua Xia people were born with the talent of farming. Chen Ze found it very reasonable. Although planting an immortal peach tree was different from farming, it was hard to say that Chen Ze could plant it.
Chen Ze decisively put on his coat. After informing Betty, he went outside to buy some Nutrient Soil and a huge basin. Chen Ze planned on planting it in the restaurant. Chen Ze was worried about planting it outside.
After carrying the basin back, Chen Ze walked into the restaurant and saw Lavra looking at him proudly. In front of her was a cup of dark red liquid. Chen Ze's legs went limp as he recalled the last time he drank Elizabeth.
