Wanshou Mountain is full of spiritual energy, with lush trees everywhere and many wild beasts roaming in the forest.
The four masters and disciples were hungry and wanted to have a good rest. Sun Wukong and others came to the gate of the Taoist temple.
I saw the three characters Wuzhuangguan written on the gate. Although it looked ordinary, Sun Wukong could feel the powerful magic power contained in it with his golden eyes.
Zhu Bajie and others were so excited that they didn't even notice this.
"Four masters, Master has been waiting for a long time. Please come in with me."
Just when the four masters and disciples were about to knock on the door, the Taoist temple door opened from the inside out, and Qingfeng and Mingyue spoke with a smile on their faces.
Seeing the two boys Qingfeng and Mingyue appear, the four masters and disciples were full of surprises, and they were very curious about the master mentioned by Qingfeng and Mingyue.
"Thank you both. I wonder what you call them?"
Tang Xuanzang said very politely.
"The elder calls me two to clear the breeze and brighten the moon."
Hearing this, Qingfeng and Mingyue also responded very politely.
Then, with the curious expressions on their faces, the four masters and disciples followed Qingfeng and Mingyue into the Wuzhuang Temple.
"Master, we have arrived."
Entering the Wuzhuang Temple, the breeze and the bright moon bowed respectfully to Zhen Yuanzi.
"Well, you two go down first."
Hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi slowly turned around and looked at the four masters and disciples of Sun Wukong.
Zhen Yuanzi was one of the three thousand guests of the Zixiao Palace in the past, and he had a very good relationship with Qin Feng. During the war between the Lich and Demon clans, he even helped Qin Feng fight Taiyi.
Zhen Yuanzi naturally knew that Sun Wukong was Qin Feng's disciple, and a smile suddenly appeared on Zhen Yuanzi's face when he saw Sun Wukong.
When Sun Wukong saw Zhen Yuanzi's gaze, his heart was filled with tension. Sun Wukong could feel that Zhen Yuanzi was a quasi-sage. It was unbelievable that such a powerful immortal lived in seclusion here.
"Sun Wukong, I have seen the great immortal!"
Not daring to be disrespectful at all, Sun Wukong bowed respectfully to him.
"It's free, it's not bad."
Zhen Yuanzi nodded and praised.
After hearing what Zhen Yuanzi said, Sun Wukong was even more confused and didn't understand what was going on.
Later, Zhen Yuanzi also nodded to Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing, but when he looked at Tang Xuanzang, the smile on his face disappeared and he looked a little cold.
Sun Wukong also saw this subtle change.
"The poor monk Tang Xuanzang met the Immortal. He passed by this place and wanted to stay for a night. He also asked the Immortal to make it convenient for him."
Tang Xuanzang said very politely.
"You are a guest here, so let's stay."
Hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi responded calmly.
Zhen Yuanzi is a Taoist and a good friend of Qin Feng. Although he rarely leaves Wuzhuang Temple, he is very aware of what happened in the ancient land.
Zhen Yuanzi was very unhappy with Western religions. Now that he saw Tang Xuanzang, he naturally felt a little unhappy, but because of his status, he didn't want to do anything to Tang Xuanzang.
Under Zhen Yuanzi's arrangement, Qingfeng and Mingyue prepared rooms for the four masters and apprentices.
"I wonder what the great immortal is called?"
After tea and dinner, the four masters and disciples talked with Zhen Yuanzi, and Sun Wukong asked.
"I'm not a great immortal, just call me Zhen Yuanzi. Your monkey head talent is quite good, and Deputy Cult Master Qin has taken on a good disciple."
Hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi responded with a smile.
Hearing Zhen Yuanzi's words, the four masters and disciples were all shocked. They never expected that Zhen Yuanzi in front of them actually knew Qin Feng, and Sun Wukong suddenly became energetic.
"Great Immortal Zhen Yuanzi, do you know my grandson's master?"
Sun Wukong asked excitedly.
"More than just acquaintance, Deputy Cult Leader Qin is very admirable. He is not like those hypocritical bald donkeys in Western religions who are annoying."
Zhen Yuanzi laughed, but changed the topic, glanced at Tang Xuanzang without leaving any trace, and said.
After hearing what Zhen Yuanzi said, the four masters and disciples felt that Zhen Yuanzi had no good impression of Tang Xuanzang.
Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty was also full of doubts and confusion, and he didn't understand why Zhen Yuanzi commented so much on Western religions.
"Amitabha, Great Immortal Zhen Yuanzi, I don't know where my Buddhism has offended the Immortal, please express it clearly!"
After thinking for a moment, Tang Xuanzang couldn't help but said.
"It's not that I've been offended, but those bald donkeys from the West talk so much about benevolence, righteousness, and morality, and use the guise of saving all sentient beings to deceive the world, which I despise."
Zhen Yuanzi responded unceremoniously.
"Great Immortal Zhen Yuanzi, there are good and bad people in the world. Although some people in Western religions are indeed like this, it does not mean that everyone is like this."
Hearing this, Tang Xuanzang also said seriously.
"Great Immortal Zhen Yuanzi, what the monk said is quite reasonable. At least this monk is quite good."
Sun Wukong on the side also hurriedly explained.
"Yes, although the master is a mortal, he has always taken it as his mission to save all sentient beings."
After hearing Sun Wukong's words, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing also echoed.
After some explanations by Sun Wukong and the others and Zhen Yuanzi's conversation and contact with Tang Xuanzang, Zhen Yuanzi found that Tang Xuanzang was indeed different from the Western sects, and his attitude became better.
After a conversation, Zhen Yuanzi was very polite to Sun Wukong, and the conversation was very joyful.
Under the arrangement of Zhen Yuanzi, the four masters and disciples of Sun Wukong also planned to stay at Wuzhuang Temple for two days. As night fell, the four masters and disciples returned to their residence to rest.
"Fellow Taoist, you are well."
Not long after the four masters and disciples of Sun Wukong left, Qin Feng's figure appeared quietly in front of Zhen Yuanzi.
Seeing Qin Feng coming, Zhen Yuanzi was immediately filled with shock and surprise.
"Zhen Yuanzi has met Deputy Leader Qin."
Zhen Yuanzi bowed to Qin Feng very politely and respectfully.
"Fellow Taoist, you don't have to be polite."
Hearing this, Qin Feng also responded very politely.
"I wonder why Deputy Hierarch Qin came here this time?"
Zhen Yuanzi asked.
"To be honest, I really need a favor from my Taoist friends for coming here this time. Now that the calamity of the journey to the west is coming, the Western religion wants to take advantage of this opportunity to prosper. I also ask my Taoist friends to keep Tang Xuanzang for some time so as to delay the journey to the west."
Qin Feng responded with a smile.
"Don't worry, Deputy Hierarch Qin, just leave this little matter to me."
After hearing Qin Feng's words, Zhen Yuanzi immediately nodded and agreed.
"Then thank you fellow Taoist."
Hearing this, Qin Feng also responded happily.
"Deputy Hierarch Qin, please don't be polite. Since Deputy Hierarch Qin is here to stay for a few more days, I also have something to ask."
Zhen Yuanzi responded very politely, and then said with a hint of embarrassment on his face.
Zhen Yuanzi is a quasi-sage, possessing powerful means and magic power, and can make a quasi-sage look embarrassed. Qin Feng was suddenly full of curiosity and solemnity.
"Fellow Taoist, just ask."
Qin Feng also said very politely.
"Vice-leader Qin, please come with me and take a look, so that you can find out."
After hearing Qin Feng's words, Zhen Yuanzi immediately took Qin Feng to the backyard.
When they arrived at the backyard of Wuzhuang Temple, the ginseng fruit tree appeared in front of Qin Feng and Zhen Yuanzi. However, at this time, the ginseng fruit tree was a little withered and yellow, and looked droopy. Seeing such a scene, Qin Feng was immediately filled with surprise.
