Gourmet daily life with Monkey [Journey to the West]

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked, and even Tao Tao, who was nestled in Zhen Yuanzi's arms, stood up.

The four short legs just filled Zhen Yuanzi's palm, and a pair of mung bean eyes stared at Qingfeng and Mingyue in surprise.Her first reaction was that Brother Hou was greedy again. With Brother Monkey's temperament, it's not surprising that he did such a thing.

But after thinking about it carefully, it was impossible. The three monkey brothers had been repairing the house for half a month, and they were exhausted. They fell asleep after dinner every night. How could they have the energy to steal ginseng fruit?

Besides, Zhen Yuanzi lives in Wuzhuang Temple now, how could he take such a risk?Unless you don't want to leave for the rest of your life.

"What's going on? Tell me carefully." Zhen Yuanzi's complexion also changed slightly. They ate two of the ginseng fruits when they were just ripe, but five were stolen a few days ago, and there are only 23 left.

How could all 23 disappear overnight?Which thief is so bold!

Qingfeng cried: "My junior brother and I have to go to the backyard to count three times a day, one in the morning, one at noon and one in the evening. It was fine when we went to count last night, but if we go again this morning, there is only one leaf left. Master, There must be thieves going to steal ginseng fruit again!"

Inside and outside the words, they all point to the three of Monkey King.The Wuzhuang Temple has been peaceful for tens of thousands of years, but recently foreigners have come, who else could it be?What's more, these people have criminal records.

Everyone, including Zhen Yuanzi, thought so.

Mingyue immediately added fuel and jealousy: "Master, Sun Wukong and the others must have made it. Last time they ate ginseng fruit and tasted the sweetness, they stole it again this time!"

"That's right, Master, if you asked them to repair Wuzhuang Temple, they must have a grudge and deliberately stole ginseng fruit for revenge."

"Master, you must not let them go like this!"

The two senior brothers glanced at me and said something, which quickly aroused everyone's resentment.

Tao Tao was definitely in the wrong situation, so she wanted to sneak away and report the news, but Zhen Yuanzi said, "Don't jump to conclusions before you know the truth. Chen Lu, Chen Xi, go and take Tang Sanzang and his three apprentices away." Come here, everyone."

"Yes, Master."

Tao Tao couldn't leave, she stared at Qingfeng and Mingyue for a moment, always feeling that this matter had nothing to do with them.

After a while, Tang Seng and four people were taken to the main hall. On the way, they heard that all the ginseng fruits were missing. Monkey King and Zhu Bajie were filled with righteous indignation, why should they fall on their heads?

"Amitabha. The Great Immortal sent four of my master and disciples to the temple. I wonder if I can give you any advice?" Tang Seng still bowed politely, and the three disciples were out of shape, and all of them had gloomy faces.

Zhen Yuanzi returned a salute, and said: "I can't talk about advice, but I just want to verify with you."

He told about all the missing ginseng fruits, and asked Monkey King what the three of them did last night.

Sun Wukong sneered and said: "Old Sun has been working so hard to build houses for you all day long, but you ask me what I did? Besides sleeping at night, what else do you think you can do?" Can't do it on the head? This pot, the old sun will not carry it!"

"I won't recite it, and I won't recite it even if I'm beaten to death." Zhu Bajie was angrily. After half a month, he was so tired that his skin was not as good as before, and his suave and suave appearance naturally disappeared.He rolled up his sleeves, exposing two tanned arms, and said sarcastically, "If the fruit is gone today, it is our fault, and if the tree falls tomorrow, is it also our fault?"

Sha Wujing also snorted coldly, and argued: "We live so far away from the ginseng fruit trees, no matter how we walk, we have to pass your residence. All the great immortals are people with great powers. Does anyone pass by outside the house at night? Do not know at all?"

"The two younger brothers are well said!" Sun Wukong gave the two high-fives, and the three looked at each other and smiled, finally feeling a little like a small group.

Sha Wujing's question made Zhen Yuanzi and the others feel ashamed. Indeed, more than 40 of them did not notice anyone passing by outside the house.

"Grandpa Immortal, I also don't think Brother Monkey did it." Seeing the performance of the three Monkey Kings, Tao Tao knew it in her heart, so she said, "Look, Grandpa Immortal, the Wuzhuang Temple is almost built now, and then It will be finished in two or three days. After the completion of the work, we can continue to learn scriptures. Who will trouble themselves at this time?"

Zhen Yuanzi nodded slightly, and actually asked Tao Tao's opinion: "Then tell me, who would do it?"

"I heard that each person can only eat one ginseng fruit per day. Even if someone steals all the ginseng fruits, he won't be able to eat them all in one night. So the remaining ginseng fruits must still be hidden somewhere. Why don't we go find them first?"

When Tao Tao said this, she kept observing the expressions of Qingfeng and Mingyue, and as expected, the expressions of the two became tense, and their fingers were still intertwined.

When Zhen Yuanzi heard this, he couldn't help laughing: "Taozi is still smart! It's just that ginseng fruit can't be preserved for a long time. There is only one way to store it, and that is to bury it in the ground."

He stroked his beard, and suddenly there was a flash of light in his eyes: "Pin Dao knows where the ginseng fruit is!"

Everyone was still in a daze, but Zhen Yuanzi had already walked out first.All the way from the main hall to the ginseng fruit tree in the backyard, Zhen Yuanzi stopped.

Sure enough, there were only lush green leaves left on the tree. Everyone looked around and saw that it was empty, and there was no place to hide the ginseng fruit.

"The ginseng fruit is in this soil." Zhen Yuanzi pointed at the hard soil under his feet, and suddenly reprimanded solemnly: "Qingfeng, Mingyue, you still don't admit your mistake!"

With two "plops", Qingfeng and Mingyue were so frightened that their legs went limp, and they immediately knelt down. Their faces were also pale, and they didn't even dare to look at Zhen Yuanzi.

This result was beyond everyone's expectations. Even Sun Wukong and others suddenly realized that it was these two little things who were deliberately framing.

"Master, I, I..."

"You know the characteristics of ginseng fruit best. As long as you knock it off, the ginseng fruit will automatically burrow into the soil without leaving any traces. So you two brothers and sisters use this method to frame Tang Sanzang and his disciples, right?" Zhen Yuan The son stared at the two little disciples with disappointment and disbelief in his eyes.

These two people have been with him for thousands of years, because they are young, so he usually loves them more.But he didn't expect that they would develop such a temperament.

Qingfeng burst into tears immediately, but Mingyue said with red eyes: "It's not all because of your partiality, Master! Our brothers have been with you for so long, and each of us only got a small piece of ginseng fruit back then. But the pig Well, not only did you not blame her for stealing your treasure, but you also said that you would give her a ginseng fruit! You are eccentric, and the apprentice just refuses to accept it!"

Tao Tao is speechless, the relationship is still caused by her!

Monkey King and the others were overjoyed, what method did Tao Tao use to get this Niubi to give her a ginseng fruit?

Zhen Yuanzi's apprentices looked at each other in blank dismay, but they also had different thoughts.

"So it's because of this." Zhen Yuanzi sighed a long time, and said tiredly after a long time: "The teacher promised to give Tao Zi a ginseng fruit, because she ate a bad stomach last time and lost her vitality. Just because of a ginseng fruit, You brothers and sisters are so jealous, it seems that you have practiced for thousands of years in vain. From today on, you two are no longer my apprentices of Zhen Yuanzi, each of you can be whipped a hundred times and sent out of Wuzhuang Temple!"

"Master, we know we are wrong, please don't drive us away, okay?"

"Woooo, we really know we were wrong, master, don't give us another chance...don't dare to do it again next time, woooo..."

Qingfeng and Mingyue burst into tears on the spot, but Zhen Yuanzi had made up his mind and ordered other disciples to take them down for execution.

"Hmph, do you believe me now? Luckily, we were not wronged when we found out the real culprit." Zhu Bajie was relieved this time, he had already disliked those two fairies, and he still remembered the grudge he suffered from diarrhea all night!

Zhen Yuanzi sighed at the ginseng fruit tree: "Perhaps fate is like this. Taozi, the ginseng fruit that I promised to give you is probably going to break my promise."

Sun Wukong smiled and said, "If I can find someone to take back the ginseng fruit, Daxian, can you give me one too?"

"If you monkey head really has a way to take back the fruit, why not give you one?" Zhen Yuanzi readily agreed, but he didn't think Monkey King could do it.

"Since that's the case, Daxian will give me half a day. After half a day, I will keep all the fruits back." Monkey King was full of confidence, and he ordered Tang Seng and others to disappear after driving somersault cloud.

Tao Tao knew where he was going, so he must have gone to the South China Sea to find Guanyin Bodhisattva. Among the six worlds, only Guanyin Bodhisattva has this ability.

Sure enough, in less than half a day, Guanyin Bodhisattva took back all 24 fruits, and even the one that was thrown away by Monkey King returned to the branch.Zhen Yuanzi was overjoyed, and not only gave Tao Tao and Monkey King a ginseng fruit, but also a Bodhisattva.

Tao Tao didn't dare to use oil to fry it this time. She originally wanted to plant it in the space, but was told by the cheating system that the space could not grow such a unique treasure in the world.

Simply, I finally shared it with everyone.

After bidding farewell to Zhen Yuanzi, the group set off on the road again. This time they were delayed too long at Wuzhuang Temple, so they were in a hurry for the next few days.

Tao Tao ate the ginseng fruit, and her health improved, so she went on strike and left without clamoring.

So Tang Seng and others had three meals a day again, and the four of them, including Bai Longma, were overjoyed, and Tang Seng's good looks returned.

On this day, everyone came to the foot of a mountain, seeing that it was already noon, they decided to have lunch here before leaving.

The mountains are high and the forests are dense, and there are bursts of bird calls from time to time, mixed with many quails.

Tao Tao's eyes lit up, and she suddenly thought, "Brother Monkey, let's have some wild game today. I know a dish called quail eggs stewed with mushrooms. There are so many quails here, so we must be able to find a lot of eggs!"

Of course, it would be even more wonderful if a few quails could be stewed.

"It's easy, you just wait here." Sun Wukong is happy to help out. If you can't eat meat, you can always eat eggs to satisfy your cravings.

"Wukong, pick up the eggs as you pick them up, don't hurt the quail." Tang Seng couldn't help reminding that Monkey King had already flown away.

Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing helped build the stove, and Sha Wujing, a gloomy and introverted person, finally gradually integrated into the group.It's just that his taste is still a little uncertain, Tao Tao found that he prefers strong food.

While waiting for Monkey King, Tao Tao first steamed the rice and then fried two vegetarian dishes.Even so, it caused Zhu Bajie and others to twitch their index fingers.

The aroma of the food drifted far away, at this moment, three people came staggeringly on the opposite path, they were a pair of old men with gray hair and a young lady in plain clothes.

The little lady supported one of them with each hand, and the three of them walked like this, sallow and emaciated, and they didn't know where they were going.

Zhu Bajie and the others were just watching, but when the old man passed by Tao Tao, he suddenly fell to the ground.This time, Tang Seng couldn't sit still anymore, but Zhu Bajie moved faster than him, and stepped forward to help him up.Sha Wujing stood beside Tang Seng, staring at him.

Tao Tao was vigilant, always feeling that something was wrong.

"Thank you, thank you. Master, you are really a good person, a good person..." The old man was helped up, but he still couldn't stand still, and the whole family simply sat on the opposite stone.

Tang Seng took a step forward and asked sympathetically, "Old man, I don't know where your family lives. Where are you going at noon?"

The old man was coughing, the old woman was crying, and the little lady whispered: "Our family lives at the foot of the mountain in the west. Because my father is not in good health, I want to go to the east to find a doctor... But our family has no money." Wen, I can't even eat..."

"Oh, poor people too. The poor monk can't help you with healing and saving people, but there is no problem with a meal. Tao Zi, why don't you give these three some food first." Tang Seng saw that the three were all pale and thin, and couldn't help It seems fake, just want to help.

"But I cooked meals for the few of us at noon. If we share it with them, we won't be enough." Tao Tao was not stingy, but felt that the appearance of these three people was too coincidental.

This configuration, at this point in time, always feels a bit like a bone spirit who was beaten three sticks by Brother Monkey!

However, there is only one bone spirit, and it is impossible to become three, so she felt that she might be worrying too much.

Tang Seng said: "It's enough to eat less for the teacher in a while, and you can feed them first."

Tao Tao had no choice but to take out three bowls filled with three bowls of fragrant rice, and then brought over the two fried vegetables.

The family of three immediately thanked each other so much, they just knelt down and kowtowed.Looking at the speed at which the old man ate, he was not as weak as before.

Zhu Bajie pouted, "Well, the delicacies prepared by the younger sister were eaten by these people first.

Within half a quarter of an hour, the three bowls of rice and two plates of vegetarian dishes were all gone. After the three of them were full, their complexions improved a lot.

"I really met a noble person today. Little masters, you are really a good person, good..." Before the old man finished thanking him, foam suddenly overflowed from the corner of his mouth, his eyes were fixed, and he fell down twitching.

"Old man, what's the matter with you, old man?" The old lady cried and went to help her, but she didn't expect that she was foaming at the mouth as soon as she squatted down, and passed out.

"Father! Mother!" The little lady threw herself on the two of them and cried bitterly. Tang Seng and others were stupefied.

"Taozi, this..." Tang Seng was taken aback, the two of them were fine, how could they be gone?

Zhu Bajie also leaned into Tao Tao's ear and whispered, "Little sister, could it be that you don't like them, so..."

He gestured to cut it off, and Tao Tao was almost furious.

"It must be you! You poisoned the food, didn't you intentionally poison my parents?!" The little lady also came to her senses, rushing forward with red eyes to argue with Tao Tao.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I have no grievances with them, so how could I poison you? Besides, you eat the same food as them, so why are you okay?" Tao Tao was really angry this time, and she gave it to this person with good intentions. The three of them ate, and now they are still suffering innocent injustice.

What's even more exasperating is that even his own brother felt that she had tampered with it.

No one noticed that the old man lying on the ground showed a weird smile.
