Honghuang: I am Kuiniu, and I instructed Nuwa to create humans at the beginning.

When Tang Sanzang heard what Zhu Bajie said, he was so confused that he didn't know how to answer.

Fortunately, Sun Wukong stepped forward, grabbed Zhu Bajie's ear and gave him a scolding, which made Zhu Bajie stop mentioning the matter.

Afterwards, the master and his disciples stayed in the manor for one night, and set out on the journey westward early the next morning.

Before leaving, he did not forget to bow to the manor to express his gratitude to Niu Kui and others.

As the master and his disciples saluted, the manor disappeared and turned into the original dense forest.

This scene was naturally seen by the bigwigs from all sides. But at this moment, everyone had a gloomy look on their faces.

In particular, many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Western Buddhism complained about this matter.

The reason is that they did not see what happened after Tang Sanzang and his disciples entered the manor.

Finally, Duobao Tathagata couldn't help but sigh and said, "It seems that this difficulty was caused by the Saint's clone."

After hearing this, all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas suddenly woke up from their dreams and finally understood why they had not seen the inside story clearly.

After all, when the Saint's clone took action, how could they use the innate spiritual treasure to spy on it? Otherwise, wouldn't it be too embarrassing for the Saint's clone?

Not only Duobao Tathagata discovered this, but the Ten Thousand Demon King and Shura King also felt it. However, they did not pay much attention to it, after all, their sense of participation was not enough.

On the contrary, Lord Haotian had a face full of smiles. After all, Queen Mother of the West was right beside him, and she naturally knew what his clone had done.

So God Haotian naturally knew what had happened, and even felt deep admiration for Niu Kui's arrangement.

Tang Sanzang and his disciples were unaware of the attitudes of these big men. They had already arrived at the border of Wanshou Mountain.

The master and his disciples came to the foot of Wanshou Mountain and looked up to see the majestic mountain, surrounded by clouds and mist, and filled with fairy air. A simple and ancient Taoist temple could be vaguely seen in the mountains, which was Zhen Yuanzi's Wuzhuang Temple.

Tang Sanzang sighed, "Wanshou Mountain is indeed worthy of its reputation. It is indeed the place of the authentic saint Zhen Yuanzi."

Hearing Tang Sanzang's words, Sun Wukong couldn't help but ask: "Master, could it be that you know the authentic saint Zhen Yuanzi?"

Tang Sanzang nodded, "When I was on Penglai Island, I met Saint Zhen Yuanzi more than once. I even ate the ginseng fruit that Saint Zhen Yuanzi gave me."

After hearing this, Sun Wukong couldn't help but smile and said, "Since Master knows Saint Zhen Yuanzi, he should naturally go to the Wuzhuang Temple on Wanshou Mountain to say hello. By the way, he can ask for a ginseng fruit to taste."

When Zhu Bajie heard about the ginseng fruit, his eyes lit up and his mouth almost watered. He quickly agreed, "Big Brother is right. We have worked hard all the way, and it is time to replenish our bodies."

Sha Wujing also nodded and said, "Saint Zhen Yuanzi has a long history with our master, so I'm sure he won't neglect us."

Tang Sanzang nodded after hearing this. "Although the real body of Saint Zhen Yuanzi is now in the Nine Netherworld, and only a clone is left here, we still have to go and pay our respects to him."

After saying this, the master and his disciples walked up the mountain path, and soon they arrived at the gate of Wuzhuang Temple.

I saw that the gate of the temple was closed and there were two boys standing in front of the gate. They were Qingfeng and Mingyue.

When Qingfeng and Mingyue saw Tang Sanzang and his companions coming, they hurriedly stepped forward to salute and asked, "Are you the holy monk Tang Sanzang?"

Tang Sanzang put his palms together and said, "I am Tang Sanzang. My master and I passed by Wanshou Mountain and came to visit the Saint Zhenyuanzi. I wonder if the Saint is in the temple?" Qingfeng shook his head and said, "My master has gone to the Nine Netherworld. Now there is only the master's clone, Zhenyuan Daxian, in the temple."

"And just a few days ago, Zhenyuan Daxian also went to Bajing Palace to discuss the Dao. But before he left, he instructed that if Master Tang Sanzang came, he must be treated well."

Mingyue also smiled and said, "The Immortal has also specifically instructed that if the holy monks come, they should be invited to rest in the temple and taste the ginseng fruit in our Wuzhuang Temple."

When Zhu Bajie heard about the ginseng fruit, he was immediately delighted and didn't care whether Immortal Zhen Yuan was in the Wuzhuang Temple or not.

He hurriedly urged Tang Sanzang, "What are you waiting for? Let's go in! I've heard that the ginseng fruit is also called Cao Huan Dan. It is also one of the ten best innate spiritual roots."

Qingfeng and Mingyue saw that Zhu Bajie was quite knowledgeable, so they couldn't help but smile and led the master and his disciples into the temple.

As soon as he entered the main hall, he heard a hearty laugh. Then he saw Zhen Yuanzi's clone, Zhen Yuan Daxian, floating down from mid-air.

"I returned just in time. I was really worried that I would miss the holy monk and his disciples and fail to fulfill my duty as a host."

Seeing that it was the Immortal Zhenyuan who had returned, Tang Sanzang hurriedly led Sun Wukong and others to step forward and salute, saying, "I am Tang Sanzang (Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing), and I am honored to meet the Immortal Zhenyuan."

After the greetings, Sun Wukong smiled and said, "The Immortal is indeed very powerful. He even calculated the arrival of our master and disciple today."

Zhen Yuanzi smiled and said, "It's just some tricks. You have worked hard on the journey. I have asked the boy to prepare ginseng fruit for you to enjoy."

After that, Qingfeng and Mingyue brought a plate of ginseng fruit. The fruit was shaped like a baby, crystal clear, and exuded a faint fragrance.

Zhu Bajie couldn't hold back any longer and reached out to take it, but was stopped by Sun Wukong: "Fool, what's the hurry? Let Master enjoy it first."

Tang Sanzang smiled and said, "It's okay, let's eat together."

The master and his disciples each picked up a ginseng fruit, took a bite, and immediately felt their mouths full of fragrance and their whole bodies relaxed, as if all their fatigue had been swept away.

Zhu Bajie ate the fastest, swallowing the ginseng fruit in a few bites. He said with a feeling of being unsatisfied: "This ginseng fruit is indeed worthy of its reputation. It would be great if I could eat another one."

Zhen Yuan Da Xian smiled and said, "This ginseng fruit blooms once every three thousand years, bears fruit once every three thousand years, and takes three thousand years to mature. It is extremely precious. It is a great opportunity for you to be able to eat one."

Sun Wukong nodded and said, "The Immortal is right. It is a great blessing for us to be able to eat one."

Zhen Yuan Da Xian nodded and said, "Tang Sanzang, you are going to the West to obtain the scriptures. The journey is difficult and dangerous. Although I cannot help you personally, I can give you a treasure to help you."

After saying this, Zhen Yuanzi took out a jade slip from his sleeve, handed it to Tang Sanzang and said.

"This jade slip records the experience of my many years of cultivation, as well as some spells to deal with demons. If you need it, you can comprehend it at any time."

Tang Sanzang took the jade slip and said gratefully, "Thank you for your gift, Immortal. I will keep it well and live up to your expectations."

Zhen Yuanzi nodded and said, "You are going to the West, the journey is long, I will not keep you any longer. If we are destined to meet again, we will meet again someday."

The master and his disciples bowed to Zhen Yuanzi again to express their gratitude, then said goodbye and left Wuzhuang Temple.

After walking out of the temple gate, Zhu Bajie couldn't help but look back and sighed: "This ginseng fruit is really a good thing, but it's a pity that I can only eat one." (End of this chapter)
