Chapter 1329
Marshal Tianpeng was currently so immersed in the excitement of being able to take Tang Sanzang as his master and join the westward journey that he had completely forgotten about Tang Sanzang's words.
As for the matter of Tang Sanzang giving him a name, Marshal Tianpeng did not care at all.
Besides, it was just a name; Marshal Tianpeng did not mind it much.
At first, after reading *Journey to the West*, Marshal Tianpeng had been somewhat resistant to the name Zhu Bajie.
But as Sun Wukong frequently called him that, Marshal Tianpeng slowly accepted the name Zhu Bajie.
Here, having already taken his master, Marshal Tianpeng handed the large immortal peach in his hand directly to Tang Sanzang.
Tang Sanzang did not stand on ceremony at all; he took the large immortal peach from Marshal Tianpeng's hand and devoured it in a few consecutive bites.
Although the immortal peach was a rare treasure of heaven and earth, it had no effect on increasing one's cultivation base.
Of course, it could prolong Tang Sanzang's life, which was enough for Tang Sanzang, a mortal, to live as long as heaven and earth.
After eating the immortal peach, Tang Sanzang said:
"Wukong, Bajie, let us continue our journey."
Upon hearing Tang Sanzang's words, Marshal Tianpeng immediately began to perform.
After all, Marshal Tianpeng did not want to end up like Sun Wukong in the original *Journey to the West*, being expelled from the sect.
Tang Sanzang already had little affection for him because of the incident at Gao Village.
Although he had brought the immortal peach as an apology, he could not guess what Tang Sanzang was thinking.
Marshal Tianpeng could not guess it either.
Since that was the case, Marshal Tianpeng hoped to perform well, at least so that Tang Sanzang would no longer feel disgusted with him.
Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, and the others had been walking for more than a month.
Now, they had arrived at Mount Futu.
It must be said that there was a Fomen disciple on this Mount Futu.
It was none other than Chan Master Wuchao.
At first, Tang Sanzang did not have much affection for Chan Master Wuchao.
After all, in Tang Sanzang's view, Chan Master Wuchao was a Fomen disciple.
He must have been practicing Mahayana Buddhism, so naturally, he could not gain Tang Sanzang's favor.
However, through their subsequent exchanges, Tang Sanzang gained a deeper understanding of Chan Master Wuchao.
This Chan Master Wuchao did not practice Mahayana Buddhism, but rather the *Heart Sutra* that he had comprehended himself.
On this point alone, Tang Sanzang had many common topics with Chan Master Wuchao.
Thus, the two felt as if they had met too late and began to discuss Buddhism.
However, time waits for no one.
In the end, Tang Sanzang only stayed for one day before setting foot on the road to the west once again.
Before leaving, Chan Master Wuchao specifically gave a hint: "Wild boar carries the burden, water monster met ahead. Many-year-old stone monkey..."
