Chapter 429: Wuzhuang View (Asking for Tickets, Asking for Subscriptions)
Jiang Sheng searched all the way east along the road to the west, and soon found traces of Tang Seng and his four masters and apprentices in a mountain range.
Jiang Sheng looked up and looked around, taking in all the scenes within a radius of a hundred miles, and when he saw the stone tablet engraved with the words 'Wanshou Mountain' ten miles in front of him, he couldn't help but secretly said in his heart: "It's really better to come early than to come by chance, it seems that my luck is really good." ”
There is a Taoist temple on Wanshou Mountain called 'Wuzhuang Temple', and the owner of this Wuzhuang Temple is Zhen Yuanzi, who has the title of 'Ancestor of Earth Immortals'.
The reason why this Zhen Yuanzi won the title of 'Ancestor of Earth Immortals' has to start from the ancestor of Hongjun Dao.
After Dao Ancestor Hongjun became a saint, he specially preached in Zixiao Palace thirty-three days away, and many powerful creatures in the flood wilderness went, including Sanqing, Twelve Ancestral Witches, Nuwa, Kunpeng, Hongyun and Zhen Yuanzi, these powerful creatures.
There are six futons at the front of the Zixiao Palace, each of which contains a Hongmeng purple qi, and if you occupy this seat, you will have the opportunity to be promoted to the saint fruit position.
Because Sanqing is the incarnation of the great god of Pangu, he was accepted as a disciple by Hongjun Ancestor, and steadily occupied the first three seats, Taishang Laojun is the senior brother, the second senior brother of Yuan Shi Tianzun, and the master of Tongtian Sect is the junior brother. The remaining three seats were preempted by Kunpeng, Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun Ancestor.
However, before Zhen Yuanzi and their buttocks were hot, the two of them rushed to Zixiao Palace. When they found that all six seats were filled, the two of them began to cry shamelessly, saying that they were committed to the Tao and did not want to miss the opportunity.
The good old man Hongyun Ancestor was so sad to see Zhun Ti and Zhun Ti crying, plus he didn't know that this position would be related to his chance to become holy in the future, so he gave up the seat to Zhun Ti.
After Zhun Ti took the seat, he jointly forced Kunpeng to give up, saying that he was a man with hair and horns and was not worthy of this seat, and in the end, Kunpeng had no choice but to give up his seat.
Nuwa was also late, but Zhen Yuanzi saw that she was a woman, so she took the initiative to give up this seat to Nuwa.
In the end, Taishang Laojun, Yuan Shi Tianzun, Tongtian Sect Master, Nuwa Niangniang, Daoist and Quasi-Daoist, the six of them became the six disciples of Hongjun Ancestor, and the six of them were promoted to sanctification after absorbing Hongmeng purple qi.
Because Zhen Yuanzi gave up her seat to Nuwa, so Nuwa got the opportunity to become holy, and in order to thank Zhen Yuanzi for her kindness, she gave him both the book from the earth and the ginseng fruit tree, making him the ancestor of the earth immortals.
Although Zhen Yuanzi was not able to become a saint, after all, he and Nuwa were the same characters of the times, and now his cultivation has reached the level of quasi-saint, even if the Buddha has to give him three points.
If the original plot develops, Sun Wukong will still overturn the ginseng fruit tree in a fit of anger, and the four of them will also be caught by Zhen Yuanzi, and in the end, it was Guanyin Bodhisattva who rescued the ginseng fruit tree before it was over.
But if Jiang Sheng took advantage of Sun Wukong's theft of the ginseng fruit and directly stole the entire ginseng fruit tree, then Zhen Yuanzi would probably not easily let Tang Seng and the four of them master and apprentice go.
Zhen Yuanzi, who was furious, even if he couldn't completely ruin the journey to the west, it was enough to give the Buddha a headache.
……
Under normal circumstances, Zhen Yuanzi would sit in Wuzhuang Guan, and if Jiang Sheng wanted to steal the ginseng fruit tree under his nose, it would be unrealistic at all.
But maybe it's because of a coincidence, maybe it's because Zhen Yuanzi deliberately cooperated with the Buddhists and wanted to add a difficulty to the Tang monks and apprentices.
When Tang Seng and the others rushed to Wuzhuang Temple, Zhen Yuanzi happened to take forty-six disciples to listen to Yuan Shi Tianzun's sermon in the Shangqing Heavenly Miluo Palace, leaving only the two youngest apprentices to guard Wuzhuang Temple.
Without Zhen Yuanzi, a quasi-saint, it would be easy for Jiang Sheng's strength to sneak into Wuzhuang Guan and steal ginseng fruit.
Jiang Sheng took advantage of Qingfeng and Mingyue when the two Taoist boys were entertaining Tang Seng and them, and he secretly touched towards the ginseng orchard.
When Jiang Sheng rushed outside the ginseng orchard, a hint of playfulness flashed in his sword eyes and said, "Zhen Yuanzi, you are really acting!" ”
You must know that this ginseng fruit tree can be said to be the lifeblood of Zhen Yuanzi, but in the original book, it was overthrown by Sun Wukong so easily, and there was not even a little defense in the garden, Zhen Yuanzi was too careless!
And now, under Jiang Sheng's careful investigation, he found that the outside of the ginseng orchard was not defenseless at all, but those forbidden enchantments were all closed.
According to normal circumstances, if Zhen Yuanzi left Wuzhuang Temple, he would definitely place layers of prohibitions outside the ginseng orchard, but now he has turned off these prohibitions, obviously deliberately giving Sun Wukong the opportunity to steal ginseng fruits.
In the original work, Zhen Yuanzi once said that Jin Chanzi is his old friend, which means that he is likely to have a relationship with Western Buddhists, so it is normal for him to be willing to cooperate with Buddhist people to act in a play.
Jiang Sheng hesitated for a while, and was not in a hurry to steal the ginseng fruit tree now. Because if he went to steal the ginseng fruit tree now, it would be difficult to blame Sun Wukong for this matter, so it would be too late for him to make another move after Sun Wukong made a move.
……
On the other side, Qingfeng and Mingyue followed Zhen Yuanzi's instructions when he left, and deliberately went to the ginseng orchard to beat two ginseng fruits, and then sent them to Tang Seng for him to enjoy.
It's a pity that Tang Seng is now just a mortal with a physical body, and when he sees the ginseng fruit, he is like a newborn baby, and he doesn't dare to eat the ginseng fruit if he says anything? In the end, in order not to waste it, Qingfeng Mingyue secretly enjoyed it one by one.
However, what Qingfeng and Mingyue didn't know was that their conversation with Tang Seng was overheard by Zhu Bajie.
Although Zhu Bajie is not good-looking on the outside, but in his previous life, he was the marshal of Tianpeng in the heavenly court, he had already heard of the name of ginseng fruit, and now when he heard that there was ginseng fruit in Wuzhuang Temple, he naturally couldn't help but want to try it.
In fact, with Zhu Bajie's knowledge, he naturally knew that Wuzhuang Guan was Zhen Yuanzi's dojo, and he also understood how terrifying the strength of a quasi-saint powerhouse like Zhen Yuanzi was?
But Zhu Bajie was not afraid that Zhen Yuanzi would be angry afterwards, because he knew that on the way to escort Tang Seng Xitian to learn scriptures, no matter how much trouble they caused, the people of Buddhism would help them wipe their butts.
The reason why Zhu Bajie was demoted to the mortal world by the Jade Emperor back then was that he was drunk and molested Chang'e, but in fact it was just a bitter trick staged by the Jade Emperor and him!
