00:00To the West, Chapter 27, The Ginseng Fruit
00:04The Tang Monk trembled with fear.
00:16The animals showed their fangs.
00:19Master! cried Wukong.
00:21The monkey was running fast.
00:24He swung his iron bar, and the animals ran back into the forest.
00:30Wukong smiled.
00:33Sorry for making the horse run, Master.
00:36I thought it would be funny.
00:39The Tang Monk frowned.
00:41It wasn't funny at all.
00:43Those beasts were going to attack me.
00:46Nonsense, said Wukong.
00:48You never have to fear any wild animals.
00:51You have three powerful companions.
00:55Ba Jae and Wu Jing soon caught up to them.
01:00They all continued along the road.
01:03The Tang Monk pointed to a building up ahead.
01:07That looks like a Taoist abbey.
01:09I'm sure the abbey's priests will let us rest for a while, said Wu Jing.
01:13When they reached the abbey, Ba Jae knocked on the door.
01:20Two priests opened it.
01:23I'm here with the Tang Monk, said the pig.
01:26May we come in?
01:28The priests looked at the Tang Monk.
01:31Our master told us about you, said one of them.
01:34He said you would travel past our abbey someday.
01:37Please, come in.
01:38Who's your master?
01:41Asked the Tang Monk.
01:43How did he know about me?
01:45Our master is the great immortal, said the first priest.
01:49He is very wise and powerful.
01:53Wukong laughed.
01:54I've never heard of him.
01:56I doubt he's very powerful.
01:58The Tang Monk scowled.
02:01Show some respect, Wukong.
02:03He whispered.
02:05The priests looked annoyed.
02:08Our master is visiting friends in heaven right now.
02:11If he wasn't powerful, he wouldn't be able to do that.
02:16Wukong shrugged.
02:18I used to live in heaven.
02:20The place isn't that great.
02:25Wukong, said the Tang Monk.
02:27Please go outside and tend the horse.
02:30Wukong went back outside.
02:36Wujing went out to get the bags.
02:41May I use the kitchen?
02:43Asked Bajay.
02:44I want to cook some food for the Tang Monk.
02:47It's through that door, said one priest.
02:51He pointed to a door in the back of the room.
02:54Bajay went into the kitchen while the Tang Monk talked to the priests.
02:58There's a ginseng tree behind the abbey, said one priest.
03:03Its fruit takes ten thousand years to become ripe.
03:07According to legend, one bite of the fruit will make you live forever.
03:11Would you like one?
03:13A fruit like that is a true treasure, said the Tang Monk.
03:17Will your master be upset if I eat it?
03:20Our master said we could give you one, said the other priest.
03:24We'll go and cut one down.
03:27The two priests went outside.
03:31A moment later, they came back in with a tray.
03:37The Tang Monk screamed.
03:40On the tray lay a tiny sleeping baby.
03:44I can't eat that, cried the monk.
03:46It's a baby!
03:49It's not a baby, said one priest.
03:53It's a ginseng fruit.
03:54It only looks like a baby to you because you're a mortal.
04:00Please take it away, cried the Tang Monk.
04:03The priests tried to convince him that the fruit wasn't a baby.
04:08But the monk just shook his head.
04:10The priest took the ginseng fruit out of the room and into a hallway.
04:19We shouldn't waste this fruit, said one priest.
04:22No, said the other.
04:24It is too delicious and valuable.
04:26Let's eat it ourselves.
04:28The two priests shared the ginseng fruit.
04:31Bha J was in the kitchen nearby.
04:34He had heard everything they'd said.
04:37His stomach growled.
04:38That fruit sounds wonderful, said Bha J to himself.
04:43I want some too.
