Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 1549 Listening to Old Bear Bragging
Sun Wukong was a monkey who loved drinking. He didn't show it when he was seeking Buddhist scriptures because he was forced to quit drinking when he was pressed under the Five Elements Mountain.

The old bear is not greedy for money, does not want an official position, and is not lustful. His greatest hobby in life is to drink a few sips of wine. The Phoenix will naturally satisfy him. The Heavenly Court controls the three realms, and there are countless spiritual materials for brewing wine. There are also a lot of immortals who are good at brewing wine. Naturally, the wines he can carry with him are the best.

He wanted to share something good with his good friend. Seeing the monkey take a sip of wine, he stared with his panda eyes, waiting for the evaluation of his new friend.

The monkey praised loudly: "Good wine, really good wine!"

Old Bear was also very happy: "This is the wine brewed by Du Kang, it must be a good wine, maybe I can drink it again?"

"Of course you can drink it!"

The two "people" drank happily.

After the monkey took two sips of wine, he liked everything. He thought the wine was good, the environment was good, and the bear who was drinking with him was also good.

Old Bear had long regarded the Peach Garden as his own home. After three rounds of drinking, he felt that drinking alone was boring. Without thinking, he grabbed a peach from the broken branch of the Peach Tree, rubbed it on his body twice, and ate it in two bites.

The iron-eating beast is an omnivore. When it is extremely hungry, it will even eat iron, let alone peaches.

Old Sun hesitated to speak. If he started to scold now, it would seem he wasn't being loyal. He offered you wine without saying anything, and now you're turning your back on him just because he ate two peaches? If that got out, his reputation as the Monkey King would be ruined.

Seeing the old bear devour two peaches, even chewing the pits and swallowing them, he couldn't help himself. He had already eaten two, so it wouldn't matter if he ate two more. At most, he could apologize to Haotian. So he immediately stretched out his evil hand towards the peach tree.
For someone at his level, the beneficial effect of the peaches is minimal, he can just eat them as a fruit.

He ate and smacked his lips. He finished the first peach and threw away half of the second one. He felt that the peaches were just a name. They smelled fragrant but tasted very ordinary, even worse than the peaches from Huaguo Mountain.

Thinking of what Lao Xiong had said before, that the production of peaches in the Pantao Garden was too huge, he also thought there was a problem, but he was an expert in eating peaches, not in growing them, so even if he knew the problem, he had no way to solve it.

Let’s worry about tomorrow’s troubles tomorrow, let’s drink first today!
Drinking, eating peaches, and bragging, the two "people" really hit it off right away. The old bear talked about his experience of being suppressed in the cave for hundreds of years. The monkey sighed after listening. I also know someone who was suppressed under the mountain. That person is called the Holy Mother of Fire.
When the old bear talked about how he rode Chiyou to fight against Emperor Huangdi, Monkey King was fascinated again and wished he could also pick up the golden cudgel and go into battle to kill the enemy.

In comparison, the monkey's experience is indeed less, and he lacks the old bear's top bragging skills of attributing other people's experiences to his own without blushing or getting nervous. Most of the time he is just a listener and a straight-forward comedian. It is rare for the old bear to meet such a powerful but childish friend, and he is so excited when he brags about something.

As they were chatting, the monkey asked, "Brother Bear, I wonder how many people in the world can surpass you?"

He felt that he was still stronger than the old bear. If there were not many people who were better than the old bear, then there should be even fewer who were better than him.

The old bear laughed heartily: "There are many who can surpass me, not even mentioning the six saints."

The monkey nodded repeatedly. He had learned martial arts in Lingtai Fangcun Mountain for many years, so he knew about the saint. Although Bodhi Patriarch did not say that he was the saint's incarnation, his daily words and deeds showed his respect for the saint. The monkey did not think that his skills could fight against the saint.

Old Bear counted on his fingers, "Haotian God, Yaochi Queen Mother, Jade Emperor, Southern Emperor of Immortality, Eastern Emperor of Azure Flower, Nine-Sky Mysterious Lady, Nezha, Yang Jian, and the rest of the world of Jambu, and the many powerful beings within the Ancient Caves and Immortal Mountains, none of them are my match."

The monkey was a little skeptical. Are there so many masters in the Three Realms? Why haven't I seen any?
The monkey asked again, "Have you ever heard of the Bull King?" The old bear touched his head and said, "No."

He has been in the Heavenly Palace for many years and really does not know the name of the Bull Demon King. The two are not "people" from the same world and will never have any intersection with each other.

The monkey scratched his head and found that the master he knew did not match the master the old bear knew.

In fact, if we mention Bodhi Patriarch at this time, Lao Xiong will definitely be able to find a reference that both parties can agree on.

But he made it very clear when he left Lingtai Fangcun Mountain.

"If you get into trouble in the future, just don't tell your master about it."

Monkey may betray Haotian's trust, but he will never go against his master's words.

In his heart, ten thousand pretentious Haotians combined are not as good as one finger of Bodhi Patriarch.

While he was pondering, the old bear pointed to the peach tree that had been broken off earlier and said, "Look, brother, the tree has grown back on its own."

The monkey hurried to see, and saw that the peach tree, which was two-thirds broken, was growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. In less than half an incense stick of time, it had returned to its previous height.

As the new guardian of the garden, he was quite responsible and asked immediately, "Brother, what should we do? Should we cut down all the trees in this garden?"

Even though he came from a crash course, he still understood that nothing in this world is eternal and everything has its limits. The exaggerated growth rate of the peach trees now is unreasonable. If they grow a little more now, their vitality in the future will be reduced. If they grow too fast now, they may all die tomorrow.

Old Bear took another sip of wine. "That's not necessary. I heard there's a secret space in this garden, and maybe the true form of the Innate Peach Tree is there. That's the key. However, the tree has been hidden in another dimension for who knows how long. Even the masters of space can't find it, let alone me. Perhaps only someone with a destiny can make the tree's true form appear."

After a big drink, Old Bear felt refreshed. He skillfully hung the wine gourd on the Xianglong stick, patted his butt and prepared to leave Pantao Garden. If Haotian caught him as an accomplice of the Jade Emperor, he would be in trouble. He had drunk the wine and eaten the peaches, so he might as well run away!

Before leaving, he also reminded: "Brother, if you encounter difficulties in the future, come to Ziwei Star to find me. I have something urgent to do, so I'll leave first!"

The monkey likes to drink, but his alcohol tolerance is really average. The old bear has a clear mind and is still thinking about running away, but he is a little dizzy.

He didn't actually hear clearly what was said, he just waved his hand mechanically: "Forget it, forget it, bro, just go quickly."

The old bear ran away, and the monkey drank for a while. When he was completely drunk, he lay down on the tree and fell into a deep sleep.
