Chapter 375

"Ah? Is that so?"

Sun Wukong had a startled expression, "You can't say such things, you Buddhist sect are supposed to be kind, is this dietary restriction just talk and not eating enough? This dish is made from living beings, you don't chant sutras to liberate them, but instead think of eating them, that's not right, is it?"

The Buddhist disciple hearing Sun Wukong say this, suddenly realized he seemed to have misspoken, hastily put his palms together: "A Mi Tuo Fo, my apologies, my apologies, I spoke without thinking."

Sun Wukong gave him a hehe smile: "Right, right, exactly like that, you guys, chant sutras over these cooked living beings, liberate them, that's in line with your Buddhist sect's usual conduct."

Originally, if he hadn't said this it would have been fine, but since he said it, he could only put his palms together and chant sutras to praise Buddha.

Sun Wukong saw their reaction and felt it wasn't enough, so he pulled out several of his own hairs, then muttered a few incantations, these hairs vanished in midair, and finally he actually controlled the spoon to slowly stir in the small cup.

Those near Sun Wukong put down their Buddhist beads in hand, looked toward Sun Wukong, "Great Chef Sun Wukong, what do you mean by this?"

"I don't mean anything at all"

Sun Wukong gave another hehe laugh.

"This bowl doesn't contain just one kind of animal, you guys only chant sutras at the animal on top, that's not enough, I'm stirring like this so the rain and dew fall evenly, eh?"

Now even those slow to react sensed something off in Sun Wukong's words, the hot-tempered ones simply slapped their Buddhist beads on the table: "Great Chef Sun Wukong, what exactly do you want to do?"

Sun Wukong put on a startled look, "This, I mean well, I have no other intentions, what do you think I want to do?"

That Buddhist disciple truly didn't know what Sun Wukong wanted to do, only felt Sun Wukong's behavior was a bit strange, if he really had to say it, he couldn't say what.

Looking at the reactions of those around, although some were indignant but didn't feel Sun Wukong was causing trouble, saying he was targeting them, well, it really couldn't be considered as such, he himself had put in so much effort to make this dish.

"We need to chant sutras, Great Chef Sun Wukong, if you're free, you can go promote more on the Immortal Sect side."

That Buddhist disciple held back for a while, could only say this sentence politely.

"Well then, since you dislike Old Grandson Sun's annoyance, Old Grandson Sun will go elsewhere."

Sun Wukong walked over to the Immortal Sect side with a wronged expression, an immortal official seeing Sun Wukong approach hurriedly warmly greeted him: "Great Chef Sun Wukong, come quickly, I must toast you with a cup of wine, if not for you, I couldn't eat such delicious food."

"I'm cooking here just to let you eat, it's not a toast, but I've stood here this long, I really have a dry mouth and tongue, this wine I won't refuse."

"What does the Great Chef Sun Wukong's words refer to, this wine still should be toasted."

The immortal official raised a cup of wine and placed it in Sun Wukong's hand, then picked up another cup himself and clinked cups with him.

Sun Wukong drank the wine, taking advantage of others not noticing, secretly cast a spell toward the Buddhist side.

He cast a minor spell, just to make the dish's fragrance not disperse, only drift into the noses of those in front, and the more they wanted to eat, the stronger the fragrance became.

Indeed, after casting the spell, those Buddhist disciples who were chanting sutras over there would secretly glance at the dish before them.

Sun Wukong thought inwardly, let's see how long you can hold out.

This spell actually tests the inner heart, it's not some soul-stirring spell, just makes the food's fragrance stronger and drift into the nose, if one's willpower is strong they can endure it, it's merely a minor spell to add fuel to the flames.

Sun Wukong and the immortal official exchanged toasts for several cups, taking turns drinking several cups, suddenly he saw a person, Sun Wukong's heart leapt with joy.

He is a key figure, so he held his wine cup and walked over: "Yo, isn't this Maitreya Bodhisattva? You're not eating vegetarian meals on the Buddhist side, what are you doing here joining the fun?"

"What's good about vegetarian food, I naturally came here to eat vegetarian dishes."

Maitreya Buddha spoke while lifting the soup spoon to his mouth.

Sun Wukong knew Maitreya Buddha ate meat, although he disliked these Buddhist people, but this Maitreya Buddha and the Jin Chanzi under the Tathagata's seat are not like other Buddhist people who are stiff and only put on airs.

"Oh, you're also here to eat dishes."

Sun Wukong walked over laughing hehe: "Then Maitreya Bodhisattva, tell me, is this dish delicious?"

"Delicious, extremely delicious.

"

Maitreya Buddha ate several mouthfuls until the dish was clean, looked at the remaining soup in the bowl and felt it a pity.

Somehow a piece of white steamed bun appeared, he used the bun to soak up the soup clean, then put it in his mouth, finally he didn't forget to let out a sound of praise: "Truly delicious."

"Delicious is right, do you know how much effort I put into making this dish, my master alone researched this dish for over a month."

"Really?"

Maitreya Buddha was greatly surprised, then quickly broke off a piece of bun, wiped the small cup clean, "Then it really is troublesome for Great Chef Sun Wukong you to go to such trouble.

Sun Wukong hehe laughed: "No trouble, no trouble, anyway I cook just to eat, seeing you eat so happily makes cooking this dish worthwhile too."

"Great Chef Sun Wukong thinking this way is naturally excellent."

Maitreya Buddha likewise answered laughing hehe, he looked at Sun Wukong's eyes full of calculation, then looked at those Buddhist disciples behind him chanting sutras and praising Buddha, asked: "Great Chef Sun Wukong, offering flattery for no reason, either treachery or theft, I'm eating well here, what are you coming over for?"

"What could I have, naturally I'm just seeing if you're eating well, coming over to greet you."

Sun Wukong laughed again, "I came to greet you, you fatty actually think this of me, truly lets me down greatly."

"Is that so?"

Maitreya Buddha raised the wine pot and poured a mouthful into his own mouth, "I feel you have ill intentions."

"I've come this way toasting wine, besides that, you think I have ill intentions, you have opinions about me."

Sun Wukong's words carried grievance but his face showed none, everyone are smart people, if there's something, even if not said, they can understand.

"You say that, then it's me judging a gentleman by a petty man's heart."

Maitreya Buddha hehe laughed, then took another sip of wine, "But I know Great Chef Sun Wukong, you're never courteous to anyone, now suddenly you're so courteous, it's hard for me not to think more."

"Look at what you're saying, how could I not have been courteous to anyone, I am extremely courteous to my master, and not just courteous, I especially respect my master, how did it become in your mouth, Laughing Buddha, that I've never been courteous to anyone, if you think I'm not courteous, hurry up and spit out what you've eaten from me."

"Hehe, I was just joking, how did Great Chef Sun Wukong still get angry."

Maitreya Buddha drank a mouthful of wine, polite words spoken too much are useless.

This Sun Wukong looks like a carefree person, really can twist things, said so much but still didn't get to the point.

Sun Wukong still had a very angry expression, scratched the back of his hand, his whole face red as a blush, as if truly angered red.
