After Tang Sanzang and his disciple stepped into Wu Zhuang Taoist Temple to rest for a while, Qing Feng and Ming Yue brought in a jade plate.
"These are the fruits that our master ordered us to pick before he left. You can have a taste."
As he spoke, he lifted the red cloth. What came into view were two fruits with complete limbs and facial features. They looked like children who hadn't even reached the age of three.
"How … how can you eat children? Amitabha!"
Tang Sanzang was shocked. He put his palms together and chanted.
Seeing the ginseng fruits, Zhu Bajie's saliva fell to the ground. He hurried over and said, "Master, if you don't eat, I won't be polite. I've heard of ginseng fruits, but I've never eaten them."
"Don't be presumptuous, you pig demon. The ginseng fruits are not for you."
Qing Feng shouted angrily and hurriedly hid the ginseng fruits behind his back.
"You evil disciple, come back!"
Tang Sanzang shouted. He glanced at the ginseng fruits and looked away. He said, "Thank you, but I don't have the fortune to enjoy the ginseng fruits. Please take them back."
"…"
Hearing that, Qing Feng and Ming Yue looked at Tang Sanzang as if they were looking at an idiot.
"You don't know what's good for you. If it weren't for our master's order, we wouldn't have given it to you. Let's go."
Watching the two leave, Zhu Bajie flicked his sleeves and said unhappily, "Master, you're really blind. You let go of the ginseng fruits that were about to be eaten."
"Bajie, we're monks. How can we eat such evil things?"
"Master, you don't know. That's not a child, but a divine fruit. It just looks like a child. This fruit is also called Cao Huandan."
"It blossoms every 3,000 years, bears fruit every 3,000 years, and ripens after another 3,000 years. It can only be eaten after 10,000 years. It seemed that in these ten thousand years, only thirty fruits had been produced. The appearance of the fruits was similar to that of a child who had not yet reached the age of three dynasties. They had all four limbs and facial features. If one is lucky enough to get the fruit and smell it, he can live for 360 years. If one eats it, he can live for 47,000 years. "
"… Amitabha. The fruit has been taken away. It's useless to say more."
After a moment of silence, Tang Sanzang took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He put his palms together and chanted Buddha's name to suppress the restlessness in his heart.
If he knew that he could live for 47,000 years by eating this fruit, he would not refuse. But now that the fruit had been taken away, he was too embarrassed to ask for it.
Seeing that Tang Xuanzang was meditating, Zhu Bajie walked up to Sun Wukong and whispered, "Brother Monkey …"
"Hehe, you idiot, you want the ginseng fruits?"
Sun Wukong rolled his eyes and instantly guessed what he was planning.
Zhu, you're good. you... You have great Dharma powers, you, I want to taste, I want to try it too... You, I... I. I..... I. and I. I want to try it I. you..... I.
"Idiot, you didn't see it just now. The two Dao children are Gold Immortals. Great Immortal Zhenyuan of Fifth Manor must be ridiculously strong. I don't want to bring trouble upon myself."
He had been suppressed under the Five Fingers Mountain for 500 years. When he saw Guanyin strengthen the seal, he knew a lot of things. He was much calmer than before.
Zhenyuan, the Ancestor of Earth Immortals, must be as powerful as Gautama Buddha. He did not know what would happen to him if he offended him.
"Brother Monkey, we are half Buddhists. What's wrong with eating two ginseng fruits? What's more, we'll sneak away tomorrow morning after we finish eating. Grand Immortal Zhen Yuan won't be able to chase after us … "
At the same time, on the other side of the Five Villages, a black bird was hiding its breath and squatting on the eaves.
In its golden eyes, two Taoist children were walking in the corridor with jade plates.
"Haha … Mingyue, do you think the monk is stupid?"
"Yes, he didn't even eat the ginseng fruits. He's a fool. What should we do with these two ginseng fruits?"
Qing Feng stared at the ginseng fruits and said, "Master ordered us to give them to the monk, but he didn't eat them. We can't do anything about it. Let's eat them."
"Ah … this ginseng fruit is a treasure. If we eat it, we will be punished when Master comes back!"
Mingyue's face turned pale with fright.
Seeing this, Qing Feng glared at him and said, "Think about your current aptitude. If you continue like this, you will never catch up with other Senior Brothers. You will not be able to listen to the Celestial Master's preaching in the future."
"Then what should I do?"
"Now the opportunity is in front of you. If you eat this ginseng fruit, your aptitude will be improved. You will soon catch up with Senior Brothers and get Master's favor."
Qing Feng said sneakily, "Besides, as long as you and I don't say anything, the ginseng fruits will be eaten by the monk. He will leave early tomorrow morning and no one will know."
"Is that really okay?"
"What's wrong with it? I will eat it first. If you don't want to eat it, give it to me."
Mingyue gritted his teeth and was about to bite a ginseng fruit.
However, in the next second, he felt a pain in the back of his head. He blacked out and completely lost consciousness.
Looking at Qing Feng and Ming Yue who had fallen to the ground, Mu Qingxiao grabbed the two ginseng fruits and said with a smirk, "Yes, if you don't say anything, and I don't say anything, who knows who ate these ginseng fruits?"
Then he took out the space jade bottle from the storage space and put the ginseng fruits in it.
After putting the ginseng fruits in the bottle, Mu Qingxiao was very happy.
Grand Deity Zhen Yuan went to listen to the Heavenly Master Yuanshi's preaching and would not come back until tomorrow morning. He had to uproot the ginseng fruit tree as soon as possible.
Looking through the wall, he saw Tang Sanzang meditating and resting. Zhu Bajie and Monk Sand surrounded Sun Wukong and seemed to be discussing something.
Seeing this, Mu Qingxiao turned around and walked into the interior of the Fifth Manor. After passing through the cool corridor and the Taoist field, he soon came to the inner courtyard where Grand Deity Zhen Yuan lived.
As soon as he stepped into the inner courtyard, he saw a fruit tree that was dozens of feet high, surrounded by colorful light and shining brightly.
Some fruits with limbs and facial features were hanging on the tree. They looked like children who had not yet reached the age of three. They were exactly the same as the ginseng fruits.
Looking at the ginseng fruit tree, Mu Qingxiao did not notice any restriction.
Thinking that in the original book, Sun Wukong could overturn the ginseng fruit tree, Mu Qingxiao was relieved.
If it were not for the lawless monkey, he would not have dared to do it.
After all, if he triggered the restriction and led Grand Deity Zhen Yuan back, the consequences would be unimaginable.
There were only two Golden Immortals guarding the Taoist temple. For him, they were nothing.
Since he knew that there was no restriction here, he was completely relieved. With a wave of his sleeve, a breeze blew and the remaining 28 ginseng fruits on the ginseng fruit tree all fell.
With a suction force, all of them were put into the jade bottle.
