Chapter 176: Xu Yuan Wants to Eat Peaches
Xu Yuan slept for a long time, and slept for three whole days before waking up. You know, one day in heaven is one year on earth, so three years have passed in the lower world, and one year has also passed in the Vervis world.
While Xu Yuan was sleeping, Xiao Yuan stayed by her side, but she did not do anything particularly inappropriate.
Sun Wukong had to look after the Peach Garden, so he would only come back once a day to see if Xu Yuan had woken up.
When Xu Yuan woke up, she saw Xiao Yuan sleeping with his arms around her.
Xu Yuan wanted to break free from Xiao Yuan's arms, but didn't want to wake Xiao Yuan up, so she had to slowly break free from Xiao Yuan's restraints.
Xiao Yuan was a light sleeper and was soon awakened by Xu Yuan struggling in her arms.
When Xiao Yuan saw Xu Yuan wake up, he said happily, "Xiao Yuan, you finally woke up!"
Xu Yuan whispered, "Well. Xiao Yuan, can you let me go first?"
"Okay." After saying that, Xiao Yuan released his arms that were tightly hugging Xu Yuan and sat up.
Afterwards, Xiao Yuan checked Xu Yuan in all aspects and found nothing wrong. Xu Yuan also learned from Xiao Yuan that she had slept for three days.
"Xiao Yuan, you can't drink alcohol now. Although nothing happened these two times, there is no guarantee that it will happen in the future..." After Xiao Yuan checked Xu Yuan's physical and mental state, he has been giving Xu Yuan verbal education.
Xu Yuan nodded on the surface, indicating that she would never drink again, but in her heart she felt that it was just a nap and it was no big deal. The most important thing was that she also felt that the magic power in her body had increased to the third level of the Saint level.
After a while, the two walked out of the guest room and wandered around the Great Sage Palace.
Although the immortal officials in the palace did not know why the Great Sage took such good care of the two mortals who had not yet attained the Tao, they were still the people that the Great Sage cared for, so they did not dare to neglect them when they saw them, and they greeted them with greetings. Xu Yuan and Xiao Yuan also returned the greetings one by one.
After walking around, Xu Yuan didn't see Sun Wukong. He looked up at Xiao Yuan and asked, "Xiao Yuan, why can't I see Monkey King? Where did he go?"
Xiao Yuan replied, "Brother Monkey has been looking after the Peach Garden recently and rarely returns to the Great Sage's Palace."
Hearing this, Xu Yuan said excitedly: "Isn't it time for the havoc in Heaven? Why don't we go to the Peach Garden and help Monkey King share some of the burden?"
Xu Yuan has been coveting the peaches for a long time. Although she doesn't know if they can solve her problem, it should be able to improve her strength. She can eat more and kill all the evil demons when she returns.
After saying that, Xu Yuan ran towards the Pantao Garden on the right. Xiao Yuan reached out to grab Xu Yuan, but because Xu Yuan was too fast, Xiao Yuan could only grab Xu Yuan's hair and pull it back.
Xu Yuan felt pain and lost balance, falling to the ground. Covering her head with a pitiful expression, she sat up, looked at Xiao Yuan, and said, "Xiao Yuan, what are you doing?"
Seeing this, Xiao Yuan sighed and said, "Xiao Yuan, Monkey Brother doesn't want to cause trouble in the Heavenly Palace right now, so don't cause him any more trouble."
Hearing this, Xu Yuan was a little disappointed, but soon recovered. Suddenly, she thought of something and said, "Xiao Yuan, if Brother Monkey is so busy, it seems that we can't go anywhere else. Do we have to stay here?"
Xiao Yuan shook his head and said, "No. Monkey Brother was going to take us to see the Jade Emperor, but he's very busy now, so he asked Taibai Jinxing to do it for us. Taibai Jinxing comes once a day. He hasn't come today, but judging by the time, he'll be here soon."
"Taibai Jinxing? Is he a kind-looking old man?" Xu Yuan stood up, looked at Xiao Yuan and asked curiously.
She had forgotten about having her hair pulled.
"Yes." Xiao Yuan nodded.
After a while, an old man in a gray Taoist robe, holding a whisk, with white hair and a kind expression appeared in front of Xu Yuan and Xiao Yuan on a cloud.
This old man was none other than Taibai Jinxing, the special envoy of the Jade Emperor.
Seeing Taibai Jinxing appear, Xiaoyuan said to Xuyuan beside him: "He is Taibai Jinxing."
Hearing this, Xu Yuan nodded, thinking to herself that the image of Taibai Jinxing was similar to what she had imagined.
Descending from the clouds, Taibai Jinxing came in front of the two people, smiling, and said, "You two fairies must be from another world. I am Taibai Jinxing from the West. I have been entrusted by the Great Sage to take you two fairies to the Tongming Palace. I wonder if you two fairies are free?"
Taibai Jinxing had not seen Xiaoyuan and Xuyuan in the Great Sage's Palace during the past three days. He just checked outside the door and asked the immortal officials in the palace.
But Taibai Jinxing is a Daluo celestial being after all. With his keen eyesight, he can naturally tell at a glance that Xu Yuan and Xiao Yuan are not from here.
As for why Xiao Yuan had seen Taibai Jinxing, it was because in order to prevent Xiao Yuan and Xu Yuan from not recognizing Taibai Jinxing, Sun Wukong used his own magical power to condense the image of Taibai Jinxing for Xiao Yuan to see.
Xu Yuan nodded and said, "I'm free, I'm free."
Xiao Yuan also nodded and said, "I'm free."
Seeing that the two agreed, Taibai Jinxing flew to Tongming Palace with them on a cloud.
Taibai Jinxing looked kind and benevolent, which made Xu Yuan feel less reserved when facing him.
Xu Yuan's eyes turned, and he looked at Taibai Jinxing and said, "Grandpa Jinxing, I've heard that the gold master kills, why is Grandpa Jinxing a civil servant?"
Taibai Jinxing replied: "Now that the Three Realms are at peace, there is no need for so many military commanders. I used to be a poor military commander, so I decided to become a civil official."
"Is this really the case?" Xu Yuan asked curiously.
In Xu Yuan's memory, she remembered that Taibai Jinxing in some works was extremely brave, his combat power was among the best, and he was a low-key person. She felt that this might be Taibai Jinxing being modest.
"Why would I lie to you, a little kid?" Taibai Jinxing asked back.
After that, Xu Yuan asked many questions along the way, such as, can Li Jing really not leave the pagoda? Is Nezha a man or a woman? What is Tathagata's status in heaven? Are the peaches delicious?
Taibai Jinxing still felt a little sympathy for Xu Yuan. With his keen eyesight, he could naturally see Xu Yuan's problems.
So he told Xu Yuan everything he could about these issues. As for what he couldn't say, he diverted Xu Yuan's attention to other things or said a few vague words.
As the saying goes, a bystander sees more clearly than an involved party. Xiao Yuan sighed as he watched Xu Yuan, who was fooled by Taibai Jinxing.
But on the other hand, if she were in Xu Yuan's position, it would not be much better. After all, compared with an old fox like Taibai Jinxing, they are still too young.
Taibai Jinxing rode the cloud very steadily, but his speed was much slower than that of Marshal Tianpeng and Sun Wukong. It took him an incense stick of time to arrive outside the Tongming Palace.
Taibai Jinxing descended from the clouds and said to Xu Yuan and Xiao Yuan, "Please come in, fairies. I have something else to do, so I will leave first."
Xu Yuan and Xiao Yuan said in unison: "Goodbye, Grandpa Jin Xing."
"Goodbye, two fairies." After saying that, Taibai Jinxing flew away on a cloud.
Xu Yuan and Xiao Yuan walked towards the Tongming Palace.
