After rescuing Bajie, the master and apprentice went all the way to Wuzhuang Temple in Wanshou Mountain.
The temple master now has forty-eight disciples. He is about to receive an invitation to take the forty-six disciples to heaven to attend a lecture. Only the two youngest boys, Qingfeng Mingyue, are left to look after the house.
Before leaving, he told them that an old friend is coming soon. You must pick two ginseng fruits to entertain him.
Ginseng fruit is a specialty of Wuzhuangguan. It looks like a three-year-old baby, with a nose, eyes, body, hands and feet. If you smell it, you will live to be 360 ??years old; if you eat one, you will live to 47,000 years.
This old friend is Tang Sanzang. It turns out that he is the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, the second disciple of Buddha. He had given tea to the visitor before, so this time he repaid the favor with ginseng fruit.
Qingfeng Mingyue listened to the master, and when Tang Sanzang arrived at Wuzhuang Temple, he served him two ginseng fruits. However, when Tang Sanzang saw the doll-like ginseng fruits, he refused to eat them. It felt like cannibalism. No no, take it, take it.
Qingfeng Mingyue took it away, but after knocking the fruit down, it withered and wasted after being stored for a long time, so the two of them went back to their room and ate it by themselves.
As soon as Bajie arrived at Wukong, he went to the kitchen to find something to eat. He happened to hear the two of them talking while eating, and their mouths were drooling, so he went to find Wukong.
Brother, do you know ginseng fruit?
Wukong said that he had heard of it but had never seen it.
Brother, there are ginseng fruits here! We must get it to eat!
Wukong said, where is it?
Bajie said, I heard what those two children said, what kind of golden hammer should be used to hit, you have to be careful, don't be discovered!
Wukong said, don’t worry!
He stole the golden hammer and went to the garden behind. Sure enough, he saw a ginseng fruit growing on the tree. He knocked it down, but it disappeared after it hit the ground.
Wukong thought, OK, this is the land that has stolen my fruit! Ask him for it! The land was called out for questioning.
The land said, I was wronged! What the Great Sage didn't know was that this ginseng fruit is a good thing, and all good things have some secrets. This treasure blooms once every three thousand years, bears fruit once every three thousand years, and matures only after another three thousand years. In just ten thousand years, only thirty were born.
But it is only in fear of the five elements.
Wukong asked, why do the Five Elements fear each other?
My dear, when the fruit fell into the soil, the soil suddenly grew 47,000 years old!
Wukong hit the land with the golden cudgel, and sure enough, the land was not damaged at all. Now I believe the land’s words. He asked Tu Tui to go back, followed Tu Tui's instructions, knocked them down with a golden hammer, carried three ginseng fruits in his pocket, and ate them with Bajie and Sha Seng.
Bajie was impatient and his mouth watered for a long time. As soon as he got the ginseng fruit, he swallowed it without even chewing. Then I watched Wukong and Sha Seng eat slowly, feeling greedy again.
Brother, what did you eat?
Ginseng fruit, didn’t you just eat it?
Oops, I ate too fast! I don’t know what it smells like, and I don’t even know if it is nuclear or not!
Then who do you blame? You have to eat it so quickly.
Brother, let’s just eat one of this good stuff? Another one, I will eat it slowly this time!
Are you satisfied? It would be nice to have the chance to see this kind of thing, and eating one would be enough. Bye-Bye!
Wukong ignored Bajie, clapped his hands and left after eating, and Sha Monk also left.
Bajie refused to give up and kept mumbling.
Qingfeng happened to hear these words, and he became suspicious. Mingyue also saw the door open and the fruits on the tree. If it’s missing, the monk must have eaten it secretly!
Tang Seng looked confused, what are you talking about? I don't understand it at all!
You stole the ginseng fruit!
No, the fruit is so scary that I can’t even look at it!
That means your apprentice stole it!
Not to mention that it may not be them, even if it is, just pay the money and apologize, why bother to hurt others with words!
Tang Monk thought that the ginseng fruit was similar to the peach wild fruit on the roadside and was worthless!
Compensation? Even if you have money, you can’t buy it! What should I pay? Damn!
There was a quarrel here, and Tang Seng asked three apprentices to come out to confront them.
