Journey to the West: Don’t mess with that monster

Chapter 374: The Emperor Qing decided to

"Wukong, do you want to eat peaches today?" asked Tang Seng.

"How can we let Master eat peaches every day? Today we will eat persimmons." The monkey said with a smile, and he ate all the peaches.

Zhu Bajie was not polite at all. He took the persimmon and stuffed it into his mouth. However, he ate it in a disgusting way, as if he had eaten a mouthful of shit.

Looking at the persimmon at the corner of Zhu Bajie's mouth, Tang Seng lost even more appetite.

"Master, don't you want to eat?" Zhu Bajie was obviously still unsatisfied.

"you eat."

Zhu Bajie was about to put the food in his mouth, but Sha Wujing said, "Master, if you don't eat it now, what if you get hungry later?

Second Brother, please don’t eat it.”

"Wukong, your master wants to eat vegetarian food." Tang Seng said pitifully.

"Oh, so that's how it is." The monkey said with a smile. "Master, a hundred miles ahead, there is a Longevity Mountain.

There is a Wuzhuang Temple on the Wanshou Mountain. In the temple there is an immortal, whose Taoist name is Zhenyuanzi and whose nickname is Yushitongjun.

He is very capable and is the ancestor of earthly immortals.

A rare treasure appeared in the temple, which was a spiritual root that was produced when chaos was first divided, primordial chaos was just beginning, and heaven and earth had not yet been created.

Among the four major continents in the world, only the Wuzhuang Temple in Xiniuhezhou produced this fruit, which is called Cao Huandan, also known as ginseng fruit.

It blooms in three thousand years, bears fruit in three thousand years, matures in another three thousand years, and can be eaten only in ten thousand years. It seems that in these ten thousand years, it has only produced thirty fruits.

The fruit looks like a baby under three days old, with complete hands and feet, and all five sense organs. If a person is lucky enough to smell the fruit, he will live for 360 years; if he eats one, he will live for 47,000 years.

The monkey spoke like a treasure trove.

Tang Seng was also amazed when he heard this.

"Brother, how do you know? You talk as if you have eaten the ginseng fruit." Zhu Bajie said with drooling eyes.

"I didn't have the chance to eat it back then." The monkey said with some regret. "This is what the little saint told me."

Hearing the name of the Little Saint, Tang Seng also became interested.

So the monkey told them about Zhang Qingdi's elegant and easy-going behavior when he first met Zhen Yuanzi.

Originally, according to Dahei and Qingqing's description, Zhang Qingdi was extremely elegant and easy-going.

Later, after listening to the supplement of the ancient Buddha Dipankara, the monkey sincerely felt that it was not easy for Master Qing to live to this day.

"In the end, he and Zhen Yuanzi became sworn brothers." The monkey said with a smile. "Master, please hold on for a few more days.

When we arrive at Wuzhuang Temple, Zhen Yuanzi will definitely entertain us.

You can eat as much vegetarian food as you want.”

"Let's go!" said Tang Seng after eating a persimmon.

The temptation of vegetarian food made the pilgrims team hurry on their journey, and even Bailong felt a little overwhelmed.

Zhu Bajie asked while carrying his load, "Brother Monkey, how long will it take to get there?"

"It's almost there! It's almost there!" the monkey said with a smile. "Look, that mountain is the Longevity Mountain!"

Tang Seng took a look at Wanshou Mountain and found it was indeed a fairy mountain.

"If Wukong hadn't told me that this was Wanshou Mountain, I might have thought it was Lingshan Mountain," said Tang Seng with emotion.

"I, Old Pig, can't wait to try the vegetarian food here." Zhu Bajie said excitedly.

So they went up the Wanshou Mountain, where they saw the cold pine slopes and quiet bamboo paths.

White cranes fly back and forth to send floating clouds, and monkeys fly up and down to offer fruits from time to time. In front of the gate, the pond is wide, the shadows of the trees are long, and the rocks are cracked, the moss and the flowers are broken.

The palace is extremely high and the pavilions are misty and the red clouds are falling.

It is truly a blessed and spiritual place, Penglai Yundong.

"It is truly the abode of immortals." Tang Seng said with emotion.

"That's the Jin'ao Island where Master has not seen Master Qing." The monkey said with a smile. "If there is a place in the world that can compare to Lingshan, I must think it is Jin'ao Island."

This time, Zhu Bajie, who had been arguing with the monkey, did not say anything, because he had really been to Jin'ao Island.

The monkey looked at the couplets in Wuzhuang Temple, but this time he didn't complain, because the little saint had told him about the status of this ancestor of earthly immortals in the three realms.

At this time, Qingfeng Mingyue came out to greet them.

In this way, Tang Seng and his entourage were brought into the Wuzhuang Temple.

The main hall was originally a five-room hall facing south, all with carved lattices that were bright on top and dark on the bottom.

Qingfeng pushed open the lattice and invited Tang Monk into the hall. He saw two large Chinese characters "Heaven and Earth" written in five colors hanging in the middle of the wall. There was a vermilion lacquered incense table with a pair of golden incense bottles on top and a convenient incense burner next to the incense burner.

Tang Seng bowed because he had listened to the monkey’s introduction.

Knowing Zhen Yuanzi's status, he did not ask why he only worshipped heaven and earth.

"It seems that the master knows my master." Qingfeng said with a smile.

"My disciple has a very good relationship with the young saint brother under the Lord Qingdi, so he has heard my disciple talk about the reputation of Zhenyuan Daxian." Tang Seng said with a smile.

After hearing what Tang Seng said, Qing Feng smiled and said, "My master went to the Miluo Palace to listen to Yuanshi Da Tianzun talk about Hunyuan Daoguo.

But Master Qing happens to be at Wuzhuang Temple, so I'll ask him to come and meet you?"

Naturally, Tang Seng didn't like to see Zhang Qingdi.

"Little Saint Brother is here too!"

"Then meet me." Tang Seng said with a smile.

It can be seen that Xiaosheng is still popular...

A moment later, Zhang Qingdi and Xiaosheng arrived.

The monkey jumped up and down happily, while Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing deliberately kept their distance.

As Mr. Qing's spies, they felt that they could not let others know about their relationship.

Qingfeng Mingyue went to prepare vegetarian dishes.

Zhang Qingdi smiled and said, "I heard that Shituo almost castrated you. What are you going to do with your big-breasted, strong wife?"

Pigsy...

"No! I'm fine!" Zhu Bajie said angrily.

"What about you? You probably aren't used to having a flying sword piercing your chest anymore." Zhang Qingdi turned to Sha Wujing and said.

Sha Wujing: I wonder if my crescent shovel can kill him?

With just two words from Zhang Qingdi, the two undercover agents almost turned against him.

When Emperor Zhang Qing looked at the monkey, the monkey spoke first, "Master Qing, if you are unhappy, hit me twice. Don't use your magical powers anymore."

"I'm not playing tricks on you, why would I hit you?"

Finally he looked at Tang Monk, and Tang Monk felt the hairs on his body stand up.

Zhang Qingdi smiled at him without saying anything, and left.

As soon as he left, the atmosphere became more lively.

Tang Seng asked the Little Sage to talk about Buddhism, and the Little Sage impressed Tang Seng with just a few words.

Soon the vegetarian dishes were served and the four of them ate to their heart's content.

Xiaosheng was accompanying him.

After eating and drinking, they started chatting again.

The little saint can chat with the four masters and apprentices, but it can be seen that the little saint likes chatting with the monkey the most.

At night, Zhang Qingdi was lying on his bed reading a Taoist scripture.

After looking at it for a while, I put it under my head as a pillow. At this time, the breeze and the bright moon came.

"Master Qing." "Why don't you two go play with Xiaosheng and the others?" Zhang Qingdi stood up and asked. "Oh, Xiaosheng must be chatting about Buddhism with Monk Tang again.

It's really boring, but at least I can use the Taoist scriptures as a pillow to sleep."

"No! The master told us before he left.

Let you decide how many ginseng fruits to give to Tang Seng and his disciples." Qingfeng asked.

"Why is my brother-in-law acting like my second uncle, scheming against people?" Zhang Qingdi muttered in dissatisfaction.

"Give one to each of the four masters and disciples." However, Zhang Qingdi spoke after a moment's thought.

Qingfeng Mingyue didn't dare to have any objection and started to knock the ginseng fruit with the golden hammer.

Zhang Qingdi naturally had no intention of explaining to them.

Zhen Yuanzi gave this difficult choice to Zhang Qingdi.

If Tang Seng is only given one, the monkey will inevitably cause trouble.

Even though Zhang Qingdi and Xiaosheng were suppressing the situation, they still couldn't resist Zhu Bajie who was fanning the flames, and Sha Wujing who was the best at pretending to be ignorant.

But if Zhang Qingdi only gave one, Zhang Qingdi would have to take care of it if the monkey caused trouble.

If Zhang Qingdi gave four, and Tang Seng and his party left Wuzhuang Temple, and the Bodhisattva asked about it, it would be Zhang Qingdi who would explain.

From now on, just call me Big Brother Non-Stick Pan. Zhang Qingdi gave Zhen Yuanzi a vicious nickname.

Since Zhang Qingdi gave four ginseng fruits, he must go and explain to Guanyin Bodhisattva. To be honest, Zhang Qingdi didn't want to see Guanyin Bodhisattva at all during this period of time.

Qingfeng Mingyue picked the ginseng fruit and gave it to the four masters and apprentices. This time, he also told them about the wonderful benefits of the ginseng fruit.

Although Tang Seng heard from the monkey that the ginseng fruit looked like a child, he was still shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.

However, after some explanation, especially from the Little Sage, Tang Seng also ate a ginseng fruit.

The monkey has tasted all the good things in the three realms, including the peaches of the Queen Mother, the elixir of Laojun, and the fruit of Zhenyuanzi...

Zhu Bajie's eyes lit up after taking a bite.

What a good thing!

After eating it, Sha Wujing felt his magic power surged. It was obvious that they all gained a lot of benefits.

"After eating, sit down and meditate quickly to digest the food." The little saint said to them.

It is easy for the monkeys and the others, as they can completely digest the ginseng fruit with just a bit of mystical skills, but it may not be so easy for Tang Seng to digest it.

If Tang Seng cannot digest it, then he is the original ginseng fruit.

Before Tang Monk ate the ginseng fruit, there was no saying that eating Tang Monk's flesh could make one immortal. But after he ate the ginseng fruit, this saying came into being.

The white dragon outside the house was roaring constantly. Even if there was no ginseng fruit for him, it would be good to let him smell it.

The next day, Zhang Qingdi and Xiaosheng left Wuzhuang Temple, while Tang Seng and his companions were kept by Qingfeng Mingyue.

Mainly because the vegetarian food at Wuzhuang Temple was so delicious, Tang Seng and his companions decided to stay for a few days to recuperate.

"Master, shall we go back?" Xiaosheng asked.

"Oh, there is one more trouble. It will cause trouble for Monkey and the others again." Zhang Qingdi said unhappily.

"But master...I wonder why you are so happy?" Xiaosheng said with a smile.

"Really? It seems that my expression management is not good enough." Zhang Qingdi said with a smile.

As he was speaking, a woodcutter came, carrying a bundle of firewood with great effort. The woodcutter's foot must have been injured, as he walked with a limp.

The little saint looked at the woodcutter and then at Zhang Qingdi.

Zhang Qingdi said, "Your leg is injured, let me help you."

Xiaosheng looked at his master in disbelief, but he did not say anything.

"Okay!" The woodcutter agreed immediately.

He took the firewood off his back and was about to hand it to Zhang Qingdi, but Zhang Qingdi seemed to have suddenly changed his mind and did not extend his hand.

The woodcutter looked at Zhang Qingdi hatefully.

"Buddha, this woodcutter is not as real as you." Zhang Qingdi said with a smile.

"You really saw through my true identity last time!" Hearing this, the Guanyin revealed her true form. "You did it on purpose!"

"Emperor Zhang Qing, why did you stop us from testing the people who are seeking the scriptures?" It must be true that Guanyin Bodhisattva has profound Buddhist teachings, otherwise she would have taken action against Emperor Zhang Qing long ago.

Of course, the power and status of the Green Emperor are also part of the reason why Guanyin can have profound Buddhist knowledge.

"Is that a test for the pilgrims?" Zhang Qingdi looked at her in surprise. "I thought you were just messing around with them, so I thought I'd join in the fun.

Bodhisattva! Four women in the wilderness, not only are they not afraid of those three ugly freaks, they are also going to recruit them." Zhang Qingdi asked sarcastically.

Monkey: I'm not ugly! I'm the Monkey King!
After Zhang Qingdi finished speaking, the Bodhisattva was speechless.

This is a script that is out of touch with the people and is not down-to-earth at all.

The Bodhisattva was so angry that his thousand hands and eyes were about to pop out.

But what Emperor Zhang Qing said seemed to make sense, so the Bodhisattva asked again, "What about Wanshou Mountain?"

"They should also have a hard time here."

"Then I really don't know why there would be a difficulty here?" Zhang Qingdi pretended to be stupid.

Guanyin didn't expect Zhang Qingdi to be so pretentious, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

It was said that Tang Seng should have been given a ginseng fruit, which made the monkey angry. He stole the ginseng fruit and then destroyed the ginseng fruit tree.

In the end, he saved the ginseng fruit tree and everyone was happy.

If there was no Zhang Qingdi, Zhen Yuanzi would have no choice but to hold his nose and play out this drama with Lingshan.

But after Zhang Qingdi appeared, Zhen Yuanzi directly pushed the matter to Zhang Qingdi. Guanyin grabbed the jade bottle, and she really wanted to hit Zhang Qingdi on the head!
"Then I will give them another challenge." Zhang Qingdi said easily.

Although Guanyin was really angry, she couldn't do anything to Zhang Qingdi for a while.

"it is good!"

"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, if I am too harsh in this, it is not excessive, right?" Zhang Qingdi asked with a smile.

The Bodhisattva suddenly felt a little worried, and she remembered the scene when Tang Seng was almost poisoned to death.

"What do you mean by too harsh?" Guanyin decided to ask in detail.

"Just give them a good hardship." Zhang Qingdi said with a smile. "Look at the Yellow Wind Ridge and the Four Saints' Test of Zen Heart! They are not as good as my Xiangdudu Monk."

"Emperor Zhang Qing!" Thousands of hands appeared on Guanyin's body.

boom!
There was a sense of oppression within a hundred miles.

Xiaosheng lost his balance and almost fell down.

But Zhang Qingdi faced the pressure from Guanyin without any reaction.

Only the Qingping sword hanging on the waist made a joyful sound.

In the end, Guanyin put away her Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes.

"Hasn't the suffering you have caused them along the way been enough?" asked Guanyin.

"That being said, most of the troubles are caused by the little demons under my command acting on their own." Zhang Qingdi said seriously.

Guanyin was speechless again. After all, this was the reason that everyone would use in the future.

"Buddha, I am very curious, why don't you let the monkey take the scriptures by just somersault?" asked Zhang Qingdi.

This question made the Bodhisattva feel that Zhang Qingdi was joking on purpose.

"If you don't go through hardships, how can you obtain the true scriptures?" replied the Bodhisattva.

Zhang Qingdi curled his lips. He just wanted the pilgrims to spread the message of the boundless Buddhist teachings and advertise Mount Lingshan. He sounded quite righteous.
