The Monkey King went back to Bodhi's father on his way to the Western Heaven to learn Buddhist scriptures. When was it?

On the way to the Journey to the West, the Monkey King went back to find Bodhi, the 26th time in The Journey to the West: three islands in the Monkey King asked for help, and Guanyin Ganquan lived in a tree.

After the Monkey King injured Zhenyuanzi's ginseng tree in Wuzhuangguan, he tried to go back to Sanxingdong to seek the help of his master Bodhi, but Bodhi didn't come forward because Wukong had promised not to see him again when he went down the mountain. Later, Wukong found Guanyin Bodhisattva to save the ginseng fruit tree.

Extended data:

Zhenyuan Daxian is a figure in The Journey to the West, the ancestor of Dixian, the Taoist Zhenyuanzi, also known as Tongshijun ... Niu, and an intern in Wuzhuangguan, Wanshou Mountain, Hezhou. The ginseng fruit he planted only ripens once in 9000 years. Smelling ginseng fruit can live for 360 years, and eating one can live for 47,000 years.

In the battle with the Monkey King, the Great Immortal of Zhenyuan put a spell of Gankun in his sleeve, and put Tang Priest's master and disciples and horses in his sleeve, which was extremely powerful. After the Monkey King invited the Bodhisattva to save the ginseng fruit tree, he became sworn brothers with the Monkey King.
