Monkey King came down and said, "Master, I see a few peach trees up ahead. I'll go pick some. Stay here and wait for me to come back."
"Monkey King, come back quickly," Tang Seng said.
Before Monkey King left, he glanced at Tang Seng. Still worried, he drew a circle around Tang Seng.
He said, "No matter who comes, Master, you must remember not to leave this circle. This place is filled with yao energy. I'm afraid there might be a powerful yao causing trouble here. Master must be extra careful."
"Master will remember," Tang Seng replied.
"Dummy, remember to look after Master. If anything happens to Master today, I'll hold you accountable," Monkey King shouted.
"Got it, got it. You're always worried about me," Ba Jie grumbled.
Before leaving, Monkey King frowned. He felt like something was amiss. However, considering that the peach forest wasn't too far away, it shouldn't be a problem if they acted quickly.
Monkey King gave a few more instructions and left.
Ye Chen closed his eyes at the side. Suddenly, he felt something approaching him.
Suddenly, a young girl walked over. Ye Chen looked at her but didn't say anything.
Ba Jie saw her and walked over.
"Benefactress, where are you headed to?" Ba Jie asked jokingly.
The young girl looked at Ba Jie and exclaimed, "Ah, a demon!"
After saying that, she ran toward Tang Seng.
However, she was blocked outside the circle of light and fell to the ground.
Ba Jie quickly helped the young girl up and asked, "Miss, are you alright?"
The young girl stood up and said, "I'm fine. Thank you, Master."
Ye Chen watched all this without saying anything. He just closed his eyes and rested. There were some things he couldn't change, because this was a trial. If he didn't succeed, then it wouldn't be considered a trial, and it wouldn't be considered growth.
The young girl asked, "Masters, where are you from, and where are you going?"
Ba Jie blurted out, "We're monks from the Tang of the Eastern Lands, on our way to the Western Paradise in search of Buddhist scriptures. We're just passing by this place to ask for some food."
"Oh, so you haven't eaten yet. I have some steamed buns and food here. If you don't mind, please take them."
Ba Jie stretched out his hand and hurriedly said, "Not at all! Not at all!
She's beautiful and kind-hearted. She's really a living Buddha. "
Ye Chen snorted softly, "Bodhisattva doesn't have such a heart."
Just as Ba Jie was about to pick up the steamed bun to eat, Tang Seng stopped him and said, "Ba Jie, don't touch benefactor's things. Put them back."
Ba Jie harrumphed in dissatisfaction, "Master, it was the benefactress who gave it to me."
"That's right, I was the one who gave it to this master to eat. Great master, please don't blame him," the young girl said.
"Almsgiver, that's really not good. Are you giving the food to your family?" Tang Seng asked.
"My father is doing farm work nearby, so I'm going to deliver the food to him. But it's fine. After you're done eating, I can call my father to eat at home as well. Masters, you can come to my house for a visit."
"Master, look at how nice the benefactress is. Let's go to her house for a visit," Ba Jie said.
"Ba Jie, don't be rude. What if you scare the benefactress?" Tang Seng said.
"That won't happen. Masters, you won't. Our family members are all very nice."
Ye Chen couldn't take it anymore and said, "They are indeed very nice. You can't wait to eat them."
The young girl's heart skipped a beat and she said, "What are you saying, benefactress?"
"That's right. Ye Chen, what nonsense are you spouting?" Ba Jie shouted.
Ye Chen didn't say anything else either.
Tang Seng gave it some thought and said, "Then we'll wait for Monkey King to come back."
Tang Seng gave it some thought and said, "Then we'll wait for Monkey King to come back before we visit the benefactress."
