In order to eat, I signed a contract with the system

Chapter 746: Lotus Lantern + Journey to the West - Tang Monk's Flesh 6

Sun Wukong, the apparent person responsible for causing so much loss to Taishang Laojun, had already returned to Huaguo Mountain and formally raised the banner of "The Great Sage Equaling Heaven". He joined together with the Bull Demon King and six other brothers, waiting for the arrival of the people from Heaven.

Ruyi, who had taken away most of the accumulated elixirs from the Tushita Palace, was now counting his harvest in the Tianhe River. Last time in the Peach Garden, Ruyi had picked a few peaches from each peach tree and put them into his space. He had never had time to count them. Now, after counting, he found that he had picked tens of thousands of peaches!

"Did I pick so many peaches?" Ruyi exclaimed in surprise. Ruoshui, who was standing by, said calmly, "It's not surprising. There are 3,600 peach trees in the Peach Garden. Even if you only picked one peach from each tree, you would have 3,600 peaches in your hands."

Ruyi thought so too. If there weren't so many peach trees, the Peach Festival would not have been held successfully. It turned out to be a settlement. Otherwise, with so many peach trees, it would take Sun Wukong, a monkey alone, forever to eat all the peaches.

After counting the peaches in the space, Ruyi turned his attention to the elixirs. Since he could not take away the gourd containing the elixirs, Ruyi could only take out the boxes that previously contained the Soul Devouring Stone and the Soul Nourishing Stone. There were two small boxes in total. Each box could hold almost a thousand elixirs. After counting, this time the small boxes were filled to one and a half, which meant that Ruyi had packed fifteen hundred elixirs.

"Tens of thousands of peaches and fifteen hundred elixirs. It's a fortune."

Looking at the peaches and elixirs in the space, Ruyi's eyes sparkled, and she felt that she had never been so wealthy. She immediately took out a big, red peach and handed it to Ruoshui, "Ruoshui, here! Eat as much as you want in the future, I have plenty here!"

Ruoshui shook her head and refused. She said to Ruyi seriously, "I can't eat!" She had no sense of taste and no feeling of hunger. She had eaten some food before out of curiosity, but she was unable to digest and absorb it and it became a burden to her body. Since then, Ruoshui has not eaten anything.

Upon learning that Ruoshui could not eat, Ruyi felt very sorry and had to take the peach back to eat herself. As soon as she took a bite, Ruyi felt a pure spiritual power or immortal power flowing into her body from the peach meat. The soft and sweet peach fragrance lingered in her mouth. Ruyi suddenly felt her eyes brighten and her whole body became energetic. She quickly took a few more bites.

"Wow, the peaches are so delicious!" Although Ruyi did not increase his cultivation much after the immortal power flowed into his body, he could clearly feel that after eating the peaches, all the meridians in his body were nourished. Not only did they widen a little, but they also became tougher than before.

She ate several peaches in succession, and only stopped when she felt like her body would 'burst' if she ate any more. She burped loudly and said to Ruoshui, "I'm going to refine this spiritual power. We can talk after I come out of seclusion!" Then she went back to seclusion.

So Ruyi officially started the process of refining - eating peaches - refining - eating peaches again. While Ruyi was in seclusion, the Jade Emperor invited Buddha Tathagata, who successfully captured Sun Wukong and locked him up under the Five Finger Mountain.

The story of Sun Wukong finally made the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother realize that the Heavenly Court lacked the highest fighting power. They needed a real god of war who could fight and subdue demons and monsters. Queen Mother suggested that the Jade Emperor invite Erlang Shen Yang Jian to heaven to be the God of Justice, in charge of the laws of the three realms and punish and capture the gods and demons who committed crimes. After the Queen Mother's persuasion, the Jade Emperor finally agreed reluctantly.

On the other hand, Erlang Shen Yang Jian was already troubled by marriage. When the Queen Mother found him, she claimed that she could help him escape from the sea of ​​suffering. Erlang Shen was moved and asked the Queen Mother: "I want to know what the conditions are for you to help me escape from the sea of ​​suffering?"

"Take on the position of God of Justice and divorce the Third Princess of the West Sea!"

"Impossible!" Upon hearing the conditions proposed by the Queen Mother, Yang Jian immediately refused, "The Third Princess is my wife, I can't possibly divorce her!"

"The heavenly law stipulates that immortals cannot fall in love. If you are the god of justice, how can you break the law and marry and have children?" Seeing that Yang Jian disagreed, the Queen Mother did not force him, but just advised: "Immortals cannot fall in love, otherwise once they fall in love, it will easily cause unrest in the three realms. Yang Jian, think about it carefully."

The third princess knew nothing of the true situation. She only knew that Yang Jian had rejected the invitation from the Heavenly Court and was pressing her hard. Yang Jian, who was unable to reveal the true situation, was tormented by the third princess's pressure and had no way out. He could only use the excuse of going hunting to relieve his boredom.

During the hunting, Yang Jian met Tian Peng Yuanshuai who had become Zhu Bajie, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt bad. Then, he met Jin Chanzi who had come down to earth and reincarnated, but the new Jin Chanzi no longer recognized Erlang Shen.

There is an upper limit to the effect that the peaches can have on a person. Ruyi could no longer obtain immortal power from the peaches after absorbing and refining them, so she chose to come out of seclusion to sort out the pills in the space. Before that, Ruyi thought of Sun Wukong who was pressed under the Five Finger Mountain, and she decided to go down and see him because she was worried about him.

Ruyi quickly found the Five Finger Mountain. At that time, Sun Wukong was pressed under the Five Finger Mountain. Only his head and one arm were exposed and could move. Ruyi did not directly use her original appearance, but used the art of transformation to turn herself into a little girl.

The little girl was holding a basket with a few big, fragrant peaches in it. When Sun Wukong saw the peaches, he couldn't help but shout to the little girl, "Little girl, little girl! Come here! Come here quickly!"

The little girl heard the shouting and came over obediently. When Sun Wukong saw her coming, he smiled and asked for peaches: "Little girl, your peach looks delicious. Can you, can you give me one?"

"Of course!" Ruyi still didn't change her voice. She smiled and took out a peach from the basket and placed it in front of Sun Wukong, then asked, "I just wonder if you want to eat this one, this one, or the whole basket?"

The moment he heard the little girl's voice, Sun Wukong's eyes lit up immediately. He obviously recognized Ruyi. Seeing that Ruyi had not given him the peach and was still joking with him, he was so anxious that he kept scratching his head with his only movable hand, "Miss Ruyi, stop joking and give me the peach quickly!"

"I, Old Sun, have been suppressed by the Five Finger Mountain for two hundred years. I have wanted to eat this peach for a long time!"

Seeing how pitifully Sun Wukong spoke, Ruyi was in no mood to joke anymore. She immediately stuffed the peaches into Sun Wukong's mouth, and waited for him to take a bite. Then she put the basket full of peaches next to him.

"I was just in seclusion, I didn't expect that two hundred years had passed when I came out!" Ruyi sat down next to the Five Finger Mountain, took out some water from the space, fed the water to Sun Wukong while explaining why it took so long for her to show up.

"Delicious, really delicious, I know it's the peaches from the immortal world as soon as I taste it!" Seeing that Ruyi didn't ask him why he was now trapped under the Five Finger Mountain, it has to be said that Sun Wukong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It's not that he couldn't say it, Sun Wukong just felt that it was shameful that he couldn't defeat Tathagata and was defeated by Tathagata, so he was embarrassed to say it.
