Zhenyuan Daxian actually knew for a long time that Tang monks and apprentices were going to come to Wuzhuang Temple. Therefore, I told my two apprentices in advance to prepare ginseng fruits. The key is that only two are prepared, so why only two are prepared when there are four masters and apprentices? Actually, the reason is very simple.
Reason 1: The number of fruits is small
Although it is said that Zhenyuan Daxian guards this ginseng fruit, he must not worry about eating and drinking. However, the number of fruits is so rare that it takes 10,000 years to produce 30 fruits. It's these two fruits, in fact, Zhenyuan Daxian is distressed.
I have a number of fruits, and I will not let him have two, and I shall not spend more.
It can only be said that it is Tang Seng's previous life, Elder Jin Cicada, and has a certain relationship with this Zhenyuan Great Immortal. That's why Zhenyuan Daxian was willing to bring the two fruits over to this Golden Cicada Elder. You have to know that it seems that these fruits are all from Zhenyuan Daxian, but the amount it can use should not be much in theory, and it has to be given as gifts, and human relations are also given. After all, everyone knows that you have such a superb thing, but you came to my house and didn't give it to me, do you think I don't deserve this thing from you?
Reason 2: It has nothing to do with other people
As I said above, this Tang Seng had a certain relationship with Zhenyuan Daxian in his previous life, and this relationship was quite good.
That monk is the reincarnation of the golden cicada, the second disciple of the Western saint Elder Buddha. Five hundred years ago, I met him at the Orchid Bon Festival.
This so-called acquaintance can actually be regarded as a kind of fate, so this time Zhenyuan Daxian came to the cause and effect of both parties through this matter. But the other few people have no intersection with Zhenyuan Daxian. If Sun Wukong said that he had always been a Monkey King and had not been suppressed, maybe this Zhenyuan Daxian would give a little face and give him a fruit. The other two people were honest, and they didn't enter the eyes of Zhenyuan Daxian at all. In this case, it should be normal to hide it from the three of them. If anyone comes, Zhenyuan Daxian will take this fruit to entertain, not to mention 30 fruits, even 300 is not enough.
Reason 3: Other people's character is not good
And I believe that Zhenyuan Daxian has already understood the character of this master and apprentice, although Tang Seng is said to be timid and cowardly, but his character is okay. But Sun Wukong can't do it, we can take a look at what Sun Wukong said to the land lord.
Lao Sun is a famous thief in the world. I stole peaches, wine, and elixirs back then
said that he was a famous thief in the world, but he was really not ashamed, but proud. Do you think that if you let Sun Wukong know that there is ginseng fruit, will he steal it immediately? Therefore, Zhenyuan Daxian must hide it from him.
Needless to say, after getting drunk in the heavenly court, he directly molested Chang'e, and this character is also up for debate. And after he ate a ginseng fruit, he immediately made another request.
Brother, I've mobilized my gluttonous worm, go get another one, and the old pig will eat it carefully.
In other words, even if it is said that Zhenyuan Daxian prepared one person at the beginning. But according to the performance of Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong, I wonder if they will steal it by themselves. After all, sometimes the taste of what others give away and what you steal will feel different.
It can only be said that it is not the stinginess of the immortals
So don't think that Zhenyuan Daxian is stingy, because Zhenyuan Daxian, in fact, sometimes, you can really understand him as guarding a garden. This thing looks like it's his, but everyone should know how many things have been secretly distributed. 30 fruits, he can eat half of them, which is already considered to be the face given to him by other bigwigs. This is also the reason why when the park opened, his 48 apprentices could only eat two fruits.
