Chapter 175 Sun Wukong Manages Taoyuan
Seeing that Sun Wukong was scolding Marshal Tianpeng in anger, Xiao Yuan looked at Xu Yuan, who was frowning in his arms because of the chaotic spiritual power in his body, and looked at Sun Wukong and Marshal Tianpeng, and said, "Brother Monkey, Brother Marshal, Xiao Yuan needs to rest now."
Sun Wukong felt that calling him the Great Sage was a bit unfamiliar, so he asked Xu Yuan and Xiao Yuan to call him Monkey Brother on the way.
Hearing this, Sun Wukong released the hand that was grabbing Marshal Tianpeng's ear and said, "In that case, why don't you go to my Great Sage Palace to rest? There are fewer people there and it's quieter. I'll take you there."
"Then I'll have to trouble Brother Monkey." Xiao Yuan nodded.
Then Xiao Yuan looked at Marshal Tian Peng and said, "Brother Marshal, we will leave first."
Sun Wukong jumped off the long table and walked out of the Marshal's Mansion with Xiao Yuan. Then he used his somersault cloud to fly towards the Great Sage's Mansion with Xiao Yuan and Xu Yuan.
Marshal Tianpeng also came out and shouted in the direction where the three people were leaving: "Great Sage, two fairies, walk slowly."
After seeing Sun Wukong leave, Marshal Tianpeng breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and said, "The monkey is finally gone. The Tianhe River is safe today."
At this time, Sun Wukong's voice reached Marshal Tianpeng's ears: "Fool, I just forgot something. Don't forget the jar of fruit wine you promised me. And because of your negligence, my little sister fell into a coma. You have to get some tonics. I will come to your house to get them after I send the two sisters to your house."
Hearing this, Marshal Tianpeng calmly ordered the clerk to prepare some nourishing food and a jar of fruit wine. His Marshal's Mansion was large and powerful, so he didn't care about just some tonic food and a jar of fruit wine.
In order to take care of Xiaoyuan and Xuyuan, Sun Wukong did not use his somersault cloud at his full strength, but it took him about fifteen minutes to reach the Great Sage's Palace.
When they arrived at the mansion, Sun Wukong called on the immortal officials to vacate a guest room for Xiaoyuan and Xuyuan to rest, and then he flew towards the Tianhe River.
The room was large, with all the necessary furniture and a double bed. Xiao Yuan placed Xu Yuan on the bed and began to help Xu Yuan absorb the spiritual energy in her body.
When Sun Wukong arrived at Marshal Tianpeng’s mansion, he saw Marshal Tianpeng waiting outside with gifts prepared.
Seeing this, Sun Wukong did not hesitate and took the gifts away directly, said thank you, and left the Marshal Tianpeng Mansion.
Flying back to the mansion, Sun Wukong came to Xu Yuan and Xiao Yuan's room, knocked on the door, and after hearing Xiao Yuan's voice of agreement, he pushed the door open and entered.
Now Xiao Yuan has helped Xu Yuan absorb all the spiritual power in his body. Xu Yuan's breath has returned to calm, and his magic power level has reached the third level of the Saint level.
Sun Wukong took out the gifts he had begged for from Marshal Tianpeng. Except for the jar of fruit wine, all of them were here.
"Brother Monkey, this is..." Xiao Yuan said puzzledly as he looked at the pile of gifts in front of him.
"These were given by that idiot, specifically to apologize to little sister Xu Yuan. I saw that there are some tonics among them that can nourish the soul and mind. Although they cannot solve little sister's problem, they should be able to delay it for a while." Sun Wukong said.
Hearing that he could delay Xu Yuan's death, Xiao Yuan's eyes lit up, and he looked at Sun Wukong with a smile, thanking him: "Thank you, Brother Monkey and Brother Marshal."
"I, Sun Wukong, have already talked to the immortal officials in the palace. If you have any problems, you can go to them. I, Sun Wukong, have something else to do, so I'll leave first." After saying that, Sun Wukong left the Great Sage Palace and flew towards the Tongming Palace.
Originally, Sun Wukong planned to take Xu Yuan and Xiao Yuan to see the Jade Emperor, but now that this happened, he had to tell the Jade Emperor first.
When they reached the outside of Tongming Palace, Sun Wukong saw Taibai Jinxing walking out. He stepped forward and stroked Taibai Jinxing's beard, saying with a smile, "Old angel, long time no see."
"Great Sage, let's talk about this later. Your Majesty invites you." Taibai Jinxing said.
"Okay, okay." Sun Wukong nodded.
Taibai Jinxing took Sun Wukong into the Tongming Palace and then stood beside the Jade Emperor.
There was only the Jade Emperor in the Tongming Hall. He was wearing imperial robes, with his hair loose, and was reviewing memorials.
When the Jade Emperor saw Sun Wukong coming in, he stopped what he was doing and said, "You monkey, you must agree to invite the alien to the Heavenly Palace. If everyone in the Heavenly Palace does this, won't it be a mess?"
Sun Wukong heard the words, but he did not hear the Jade Emperor's intention to blame him. He smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I was a little hasty earlier. It was indeed my fault. If you want to punish me, I will admit it."
Hearing this, the Jade Emperor's mouth slightly raised a pixel, and he thought of something fun. He looked at Sun Wukong and said, "Since you have admitted your fault, I will punish you lightly. I will punish you to guard the Peach Garden for ten days. Do not steal from the garden. Do you have any objection?"
Hearing this, Sun Wukong was stunned. He remembered that in Journey to the West, the Jade Emperor asked him to take care of the Peach Garden because he felt that he was too idle. Why did he become like this now?
After coming to his senses, Sun Wukong bowed to the Jade Emperor and said, "I accept the punishment."
"If you are free, my dear Sun, you can bring those two people from other worlds to my Tongming Palace to sit for a while," said the Jade Emperor.
Hearing this, Sun Wukong knew that the Jade Emperor would not do anything to Xu Yuan and Xiao Yuan, so he said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
"Taibai Jinxing, take Lord Sun to Pantao Garden." The Jade Emperor said to Taibai Jinxing who was standing aside.
Taibai Jinxing bowed to the Jade Emperor and said, "I obey your order."
After saying this, Taibai Jinxing took Sun Wukong and flew to Pantao Garden.
The Peach Garden is just on the left side of the Great Sage's Palace. Considering its distance from the Great Sage's Palace, the sentence is indeed light.
Taibai Jinxing and Sun Wukong were talking and laughing along the way. After arriving at the Peach Garden, Taibai Jinxing left on the pretext of having something to do.
Afterwards, under the guidance of the land god of Pantao Garden, Sun Wukong learned about the layout of Pantao Garden.
There are 3,600 peach trees in total. The outermost peach trees ripen once every 3,000 years, totaling 1,200 trees. If a person eats them, he will become an immortal. The peach trees in the middle circle ripen once every 6,000 years, totaling 1,200 trees. If a person eats them, he will live forever. The innermost peach trees ripen once every 9,000 years, totaling 1,200 trees. If a person eats them, he will live as long as the heaven and earth, and be as old as the sun and the moon.
These peaches are not fully ripe yet, but they will be soon. They will be fully ripe in about eight or nine days. The Peach Festival will be held in ten days.
Sun Wukong looked at the huge peaches in the Peach Garden and couldn't help swallowing. It was really amazing that the Jade Emperor came up with the idea of letting the monkey look after the peach garden.
Sun Wukong scratched the hair on his hand, looking anxious, and said, "It's really torture for me to be able to only look but not eat. Hmm? Now that I think about it, this is indeed a punishment."
Suppressing his thoughts about the peaches, Sun Wukong inspected the Peach Garden and found nothing unusual.
Sun Wukong stood in front of a nine thousand year old peach tree, looking at the purple-striped and yellow-core peaches on it, and thought to himself: These peaches are magical objects from heaven and earth, with infinite uses, I wonder if they can solve the problem of little sister Xu Yuan's origin.
Of course, Sun Wukong wanted to obtain the peaches through formal means. The fairy who picked peaches in Journey to the West only knew the list of the previous Peach Conference, and was not clear about the list of this year.
Therefore, Sun Wukong had no idea whether he was invited to the original Peach Banquet. But after all, he was the Great Sage Equaling Heaven appointed by the Jade Emperor himself, so the Queen Mother would not have refused to invite him.
If the Queen Mother really doesn't invite him, Sun Wukong doesn't mind making a scene in the Heavenly Palace to let all the gods and Buddhas see what the Great Sage Equaling Heaven is.
(Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!)
