After saying goodbye to the Bodhisattva, Monkey lowered the cloud and hung the cassock on the incense tree. Then he pulled out his cudgel and threw it into the Black Wind Cave. How could there be a little demon in that cave? It turned out that when he saw the Bodhisattva appear, the old monster rolled on the ground and quickly dispersed. Monkey suddenly attacked and piled up firewood on the doors of the cave. He burned the black wind cave into a red wind cave, then took the cassock and rode on the auspicious light back to the north.

When Sanzang saw that Monkey was in a hurry and did not come, he was very puzzled. He did not know whether it was the Bodhisattva who had come to invite him or the Monkey who had fled under an excuse. While he was guessing and wondering, he saw a colorful fog shining in the air. Monkey suddenly fell to the front of the steps and shouted, Master, the kasaya is here." Sanzang was overjoyed, and so were the other monks."Alright, alright! Our lives are saved today.”Sanzang took the cassock and said,"Wukong, when you left this morning, you were supposed to meet at noon after dinner. Why are you going back to the west now?"”Monkey told them about the matter of asking the Bodhisattva to perform a transformation to subdue the demon. Hearing this, Sanzang set up an incense table and bowed to the south."Disciple, since you have the Buddhist robe, you should quickly pack your bags.”"Don't hurry, don't hurry," said Monkey. It was getting late today, so it was not the time to walk. They would leave early tomorrow.”"Master Sun is right," said the monks, kneeling together. Firstly, it's late. Secondly, we have some wishes. Fortunately, we're safe today and have a treasure. After I repay my wish, I'll send you to the west tomorrow morning.”"Yes, yes," said Monkey. Look at those monks. They poured out all their money and took out all the remaining money they had snatched from the fire. They tidied up some vegetarian offerings, burned some safe and sound paper, and recited a few scrolls of scriptures to eliminate disasters. That night, it was over.

The next morning, he dressed up as a horse, packed his luggage, and left. the monks sent him off far away before he returned. The Monkey led the way. It was the season of spring.

The grass is lined with the soft footprints of jade Cong's hooves, and the golden thread of willow swaying is exposed to the new flowers. Peach and apricot fill the forest, competing for beauty,

I'll go around the path and let my spirits go. On the sand embankment, mandarin ducks sleep in the warm sun, and butterflies are tame in the mountain stream.

In this autumn, winter and spring are half gone. I don't know when I will be able to get the real article.

The master and disciple walked on the desolate road for five or seven days. Suddenly, one day, when the sky was getting dark, they saw a village in the distance. "Wukong," said Sanzang,"there is a mountain villa near that wall. How about we go and spend the night there and set out again tomorrow?"”"Wait for me to go and see if it's good or bad," said Monkey,"then we'll decide what to do.”The master pulled on the reins, and the Monkey stared intently. --

The bamboo fences were dense and the thatched cottages were heavy. Towering wild trees meet the door, winding stream bridge reflects the door. The willows by the road are green, and the flowers in the garden are fragrant. At this moment, the sun was setting in the west, and the forest was filled with birds. In the evening smoke comes out of the stove, and cattle and sheep pass through the roads. And he saw a man sleeping in the corner of the house, full of chickens and pigs, and a drunken old man singing.

"Please go, Master," said Monkey."It must be a good family in the village. We can stay here."”The elder urged his white horse and arrived at the entrance of the street. He also saw a young man with a cotton cloth wrapped around his head, wearing a blue coat, holding an umbrella and a backpack, wearing a pair of trousers and a pair of three-eared straw shoes, walking out of the street in a hurry. "Where are you going?" asked Monkey, pulling him back. Let me ask you something. What is this place?”The man struggled and shouted,"There's no one in my manor, so I can ask for a letter?”"Don't be angry, Almsgiver," said Monkey with a smile."It's convenient for others, but it's convenient for yourself." Why don't you tell me the name of the place? I can also solve your troubles." The man couldn't break free and jumped around in anger."Bang bang, bang! The parents could not stand the humiliation, and they bumped into this bald man again and suffered his humiliation!”"If you're so capable," said Monkey,"split open my hand and you can go.”The man twisted left and right, but he couldn't move at all. It was as if he was tied up by an iron bell. He was so angry that he threw away his bag and umbrella. His two hands were like raindrops as he tried to catch Monkey. Monkey held the luggage with one hand and pressed the other against the man. He could mutter whatever he wanted, but he couldn't grab it. The monk became more and more unyielding, so anxious that he exploded like thunder. "Wukong," said Sanzang,"there are people coming." You can just ask that person again. Just hold him back. Let him go." "I don't know, Master," said Monkey with a smile."If it's boring to ask someone else, you have to ask him. Only then can you make a deal."”

The man couldn't resist being pulled back by Walker and could only say,""This is the border of ü-Tsang, called Gao Laozhuang. More than half of the people in this village had the surname Gao, so they were called Gao Laozhuang. Let me go." "The way you're packing up isn't a shortcut," said Monkey. If you tell me where you are going and what you are doing, I will let you go.”This person was helpless and could only tell the truth,""I am Gao Cai, a family member of Great Grandfather Gao. My great-grandfather has a daughter. She is only twenty years old and is not worthy of anyone. Three years ago, she was possessed by a demon. That demon has been my son-in-law for three years. My great-grandfather is not happy. He said that his daughter has attracted a demon. It is not a long-term law. On the one hand, it is a disgrace to the family. On the other hand, there is no in-laws to contact. He has always wanted to get rid of this demon. How could the evil spirit be willing to retreat? Instead, he locked his daughter in his back house and would not let her out to see her family for half a year. My great-grandfather gave me a few taels of silver and told me to look for the master and catch the monster. I haven't stopped for a long time. I've invited three or four people before and after. They're all incompetent monks and pustules Taoist priests. They can't subdue that evil spirit. He scolded me just now, saying that I didn't know how to do things, and gave me five silver coins as travel expenses, telling me to ask a good master to surrender him. I didn't expect to bump into you, this thorn star, and pull me back. You delayed my way, so I was bullied inside and outside. I had no choice but to shout at you. I didn't expect you to have some tricks up your sleeve. I can't win against you, so I told you the truth. Let me go."

"Your good fortune is mine," said Monkey."I have my own business. This is what it means to gather four and six together. You don't have to travel far, don't spend money. We are not those useless monks and pustle-faced Taoists. We actually have some tricks up our sleeves and are used to capturing demons. This was to take care of the doctor, and secondly, to treat his eyes well. Please go back and report to your master that we are the younger brothers of the emperor sent by the emperor of the East to the Western Heaven to worship Buddha and ask for scriptures. We are good at subduing demons and capturing monsters.”"Don't delay me," Gao Cai said. I'm a person full of anger. If you coax me, you won't be able to control that vixen without any tricks. Won't you drag me down to suffer?”"Discipline won't hinder you," said Monkey. Lead me to your door." The man had no choice but to carry the bag and umbrella. He turned around and led the master and disciple to the door."Elders, please sit on the horse platform for a while. I will go in and report to master.”Only then did Monkey let go of his hand, put down his pole, and lead his horse. The master and disciples sat by the door and waited.

Gao Cai entered the main gate and walked straight to the central hall. He bumped into Gao Taigong. "Why didn't you go look for him, you savage beast?" Tai Gong scolded.”Gao Cai put down his umbrella and said,"I told the protagonist that I was just walking out of the street when I saw two monks. One was riding a horse, and the other was carrying a pole." He grabbed me and asked me where I was going. I didn't tell him again and again, but he was so entangled that he couldn't help but tell him about the protagonist's matter one by one. He was very happy and wanted to take the monster with us.”"Where did you come from?" Elder Gao asked. "He said he was the younger brother of the Emperor sent by the Emperor of the East to the Western Heaven to pray to Buddha and ask for scriptures," Gao Cai said.”"Since you're a monk from afar, I'm afraid you have some tricks up your sleeve." Where is he now?" "Wait outside now." Gao Cai said.”The old man quickly changed his clothes and came out with Gao Cai to welcome him, calling him "Elder". When Sanzang heard this, he turned around and was already in front of her. The old man wore a black silk scarf, a white Shu brocade robe, a pair of brown leather boots, and a black and green ponytail. He came out to welcome them with a smile and called out,"Elders, bow." Sanzang returned the greeting, and Monkey stood still. The old man saw his ugly appearance and did not dare to bow to him. "Why don't you sing Old Sun's name?" asked Monkey.”The old man was a little afraid and called out to Gao Cai,"You little servant, why aren't you killing me? I have an ugly son-in-law at home, so why did you lure this Thunder God to harm me?”"Old Gao," said Monkey,"you've grown so much older in vain, but it's still not convenient for you. If you judge people by their appearance, you are clean and wrong. I, Old Sun, am ugly, but I have some skills. I have captured demons and ghosts for your family. I have captured your son-in-law and returned your daughter. It is a good thing. Why do you have to talk about appearance?”When Tai Gong heard this, he was trembling with fear. He could only muster up his spirit and call out,"Please come in." When the monk saw this, he led the white horse and told Gao Cai to carry the luggage and enter with Sanzang. He did not care what was good for him, so he tied his horse to the pillar of the open hall, pulled out a chair with faded lacquer and asked Sanzang to sit down. He pulled over a chair and sat down beside her. "This young elder has a family background," said Elder Gao.”"If you're willing to let me stay for half a year, I'll pay you back," said Monkey.”

"I heard from Little Jia that you two elders are from the East?" asked Elder Gao after sitting down.”"Yes," said Sanzang. I was ordered by the court to go to the Western Heaven to worship Buddha and ask for scriptures. I passed by Baozhuang and borrowed it for a night. I will leave early tomorrow.”"You two were supposed to be staying here," Elder Gao said."Why do you say you're going to take monsters?"”"Since we're staying here," said Monkey,"we're taking a few monsters to play with. How many demons are there in the residence?" "Good heavens!" Elder Gao said. How much more do you have to eat! Just this demon son-in-law was enough to make him panic!”"Tell me everything about that monster, from the beginning to the end, and what tricks he has up his sleeves," said Monkey."Tell me everything from the beginning to the end so I can take him down for you."”"We don't know what ghosts and demons have been lurking in our manor since ancient times," said Elder Gao. Unfortunately, Old Zhuo did not have any children and only had three daughters. The eldest was named Xianglan, the second was named Yulan, and the third was named Cuilan. The two of them have been married to our family since they were young. Only the younger one wants to find a son-in-law. I hope he can live with me and be a son-in-law in the old age. He can support the family and do chores. Unexpectedly, three years ago, there was a man with a rather exquisite appearance. He said that he was from Fuling Mountain. His surname was Zhu. He had no parents or brothers. He was willing to be a son-in-law. I saw that he was such an unrestrained person, so I recruited him. As soon as he entered the door, he was diligent and cautious. He plowed the fields and raked the ground without using cattle and tools. Harvest crops, do not use knives and sticks. It was actually good to wake up after fainting. It was just that one thing could change one's face.”"How?" asked Monkey. Elder Gao said," When I first came here, I was a fat black man. Later on, I became a fool with a long mouth and big ears. There was a strand of mane at the back of my head. My body was rough and scary. My face was like a pig's." However, the sausage was very big. One meal would require three to five buckets of rice, and the morning snacks would require a hundred or so sesame cakes. He was so happy that he still ate vegetarian food. If he ate meat and wine, even his family property and land would be eaten up in less than half a year!”"It's only because he cooked it that he ate it," Sanzang replied.”"Eating is a small matter," said Elder Gao."Now he knows how to play with the wind. Clouds come and fog go, stones fly and sand fly. He scares my whole family and my neighbors. He also locked that little girl Cuilan in the back of the house and did not see her for half a year. Therefore, knowing that he was a monster, he asked a mage to retreat with him.”"How hard is that?" asked Monkey. Don't worry about this old man. Tonight, I'll capture Guan Qing and teach him to write the marriage annulment document. How about returning your daughter?”Elder Gao was overjoyed." It doesn't matter if I recruit him. He has ruined my reputation and alienated my relatives." But he had to be arrested. What document did he need? I'll take care of you." "Easy, easy," said Monkey. We'll see what happens at night."

The old man was very happy, so he told him to wipe the tables and chairs and set up the vegetarian offerings. "What weapons do you want?" asked the old man. How many people do you want? Be prepared as soon as possible." "I have my own weapons," said Monkey. "You two are only using that staff," the old man said."How can a staff beat a demon?”Monkey then took out an embroidery needle from his ear, twirled it in his hand, and waved it in the wind. It turned into a bowl-thick iron rod with a golden hoop. He pointed it at Elder Gao and said,"Look at this rod. How does it compare to your weapon? Can you beat this monster?" "Since you have weapons, do you want me to follow you?" Elder Gao asked.”"I don't need anyone," said Monkey."I just want a few old men of virtue to sit and chat with my master so that I can leave him alone. When I bring that demon here, I'll get an offering from everyone and get rid of your roots.”The old man called his servant and invited a few relatives and friends. They all arrived at once, and when they had finished meeting, the traveler said,"Master, don't worry and sit still.”

Look at him, he was good at holding the iron rod and pulling Elder Gao."Lead me to the goblin's quarters in the back of the house.”Elder Gao then led him to the front door of the back house."Go get the key." "Take a look. If you need the key, I won't invite you."”"That old man of yours may be old, but he doesn't know how to play," said Monkey with a smile. I coaxed you, but you took it seriously.”He walked forward and touched it. It turned out to be a lock made of copper liquid. He was so ruthless that he smashed the Jingu Staff and opened the door, but it was dark inside. "Old Gao, go and call your daughter and see if she's inside," said Monkey.”The old man mustered up his courage and called out,"Third Elder Sister!”The daughter recognized his father's voice and replied weakly,""Daddy, I'm here." When Monkey's golden eyes shone and he looked carefully into the dark shadow, do you know what he looked like? But seeing that--

Cloud hair messy pile not plundered, jade face not washed dust Zi. Her heart was still as beautiful as before. Her cherry lips were devoid of blood and her waist was bent. Her eyebrows were pale, she was thin and timid, and her voice was low.

He walked over and saw Elder Gao. He grabbed him and cried. "Don't cry, don't cry," said Monkey. Let me ask you, where did the demons go?”"I don't know where to go," the woman said. These days, they would leave at dawn and come back at night. Clouds and mist, I don't know where to go back. Because he knew that his father wanted to expel him, he was often on guard, so he came and went in a daze.”"There's no need to say anything more," said Monkey."Take your daughter to the mansion in front of us and slowly talk about the family. Let me wait for him here. If he doesn't come, don't blame him. If he comes, he'll cut the grass and uproot the roots with you.”Gao Huan happily brought his daughter over.

But Monkey used his magical powers and transformed into the woman, sitting alone in the room waiting for the demon. Not long after, a gust of wind came, and it really blew stones and sand. Good wind--

At first, it was slightly empty, but later it was vague and boundless. It was slightly vast, vast and unobstructed.

Withering flowers and breaking willows are better than repairing hemp. Falling trees destroy forests like pulling vegetables. The ghosts and gods are worried about the river and the sea, and the rocks and mountains are broken.

The deer with flowers in its mouth disappeared, and the monkeys who picked fruits were lost outside. The seven-story iron tower encroaches on the Buddha's head, and the eight-sided banner hurts the treasure cover.

The golden beams and jade pillars rose and shook, and the tiles on the house flew like swallows. The oars were raised, and the oars were raised.

When the land of the square abandoned the ancestral temple, the dragon kings of the four seas bowed to the emperor. The yaksha ship was damaged by the seaside, and the Great Wall blew down half of the frontier fortress.

Wherever the gust of wind passed, a demon appeared in the air. It was indeed ugly. He had a black face and short hair, a long beak and big ears, and wore a green, blue, and blue shuttle cloth straight jacket and a patterned cloth towel. "So this is the deal," said Monkey to himself.”The good monk did not greet him, nor did he ask him questions. Instead, he slept on his bed and complained about his illness, humming and moaning incessantly. The monster didn't know if it was real or fake. It walked into the room and hugged him, wanting to kiss him. "They really want to mess with me," said Monkey with a smile.”Even if it was just holding, holding that strange long mouth was called a small fall. She threw herself off the bed. The monster got up and held onto the bed.""Sister, why do you blame me today? Did I come too late?" "No, no," said Monkey. "If you don't blame me," said the demon,"why did you throw me into this?"”"Why are you so petty?" asked Monkey."Why are you hugging me and kissing me? I'm a little uncomfortable today. If it's good every day, I'll get up and open the door to wait for you. You can take off your clothes and sleep." The monster didn't understand what he meant and went to take off his clothes. Monkey jumped up and sat down on the bucket. The monster came back to the bed and touched it, but it couldn't touch anyone. It shouted,"Sister, where did you go? Please take off your clothes and sleep." "Go to sleep first," said Monkey."I'll pay my respects."”The monster took off his clothes and went to bed first.

"My fortune is too low," said Walker suddenly with a sigh.”"Why are you angry?" the monster asked. How could one's luck be low? I came to your house, and although I ate some tea and rice, I didn't eat your food for free. I have also helped your family sweep the ditches, move bricks and tiles, build earth and walls, plow the fields, rake the ground, plant wheat and transplant seedlings, and start a family. Now you are wearing brocade and gold. You have flowers and fruits to enjoy in the four seasons. You have vegetables to cook and fry in the eight seasons. What else do you not like? Why are you sighing and sighing? Why do you say that your luck is low?”"That's not what you mean," said Monkey. Today, my parents threw bricks and tiles across the wall and beat and scolded me.”"Why did he beat and scold you?" the monster asked.”"He said that you and I are husband and wife, and that you are his son-in-law. You don't have any manners at all," said Monkey. Such an ugly person could not meet his uncle, could not see his relatives, and did not know where he came from. What was his name? It ruined his virtue and disgraced his family. Therefore, he was beaten and scolded like this, so he was troubled.”"I may be ugly, but it's not hard to be handsome," the monster said. When I first came, I told him that he was willing to recruit me. Why did he say this today? I live in Yunzhan Cave on Fuling Mountain. I take my appearance as my surname, so my surname is Zhu. My official name is Zhu Ganglie. If he asks you again, you can tell him this.”

"That monster is so honest," said Monkey, secretly delighted."He didn't even need to be tortured, and yet he was able to confess so clearly. Since he had the name of the place, he had to catch him no matter what.”"He's going to ask the Venerable One to come and get you," said Monkey.”"Sleep, sleep! Ignore him! I have the changes of the heavenly stars and the nine-toothed nail rake. Why should I be afraid of mages, monks, and Taoists? Even if your father had the heart to invite the Nine Heavens Devil-rinsing Ancestral Master to the lower realm, I've also known him before, and he wouldn't dare to do anything to me.”"He said he's going to invite the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, whose surname is Sun, who wreaked havoc in Heaven five hundred years ago, to come and get you," said Monkey.”When the monster heard this name, it said with some fear,""Since that's the case, I'll go. The couple can't do it.”"Why did you go?" asked Monkey. "You don't know," the monster said."That Horse Wen from Havoc in Heaven has some skills. I'm just afraid that I can't beat him. If I lower my reputation, it won't be good enough."”He put on his clothes, opened the door, and walked out. However, he was pulled back by Walker, who wiped his face and revealed his original body. He shouted,"Good demon, where are you going! Look up and see who I am." The monster turned his eyes and saw that Monkey had a sharp mouth, fiery eyes, and a kowtowing face. He looked like a living Thunder God. He panicked so much that his hands and feet went numb. With a swish, he tore his clothes and escaped in a gust of wind. Monkey hurried forward, picked up his cudgel, and gave it a blow. The monster turned into thousands of flames and headed straight for the mountain. Walker rode on a cloud and rushed over, shouting,""That way! If you ascend to the heavens, I will rush to Bullfighting Palace! If you enter the ground, I will chase you to the prison of unjust death!”Eh? After all, I don't know where I'll go and what I'll win or lose. Let's listen to the next chapter.
