Ye Chen and the others continued on their way until they came to a mountain covered in strange rocks.
In Withered Pine Stream's Fire Cloud Cave lived a monster called Red Boy.
He had heard that eating Tang Sanzang's flesh could make one immortal, so he transformed himself into a seven- or eight-year-old boy, stripped naked, and hung from a treetop, shouting, "Help! Help!"
After seeing him, Tang Sanzang whispered to Goku, "That child's Demonic Aura is very strong."
Goku said, "Well, look at you, all grown up. I'm proud of you.
Tang Sanzang swore at him. Then he suddenly let out a sly laugh and said, "Go on, Goku. Go check on him."
Goku exclaimed, "What the hell?" and said, "We might as well kill each other."
Tang Sanzang said, "Hey, watch your mouth. We're people of Buddhism, and compassion is our guiding principle. How can you talk like that? Go check on him!"
Goku said helplessly, "You're really looking out for your disciple, aren't you!"
Once he reached the boy, Goku said, "Are you okay, kid? If you are, quit pretending and get down here."
Red Boy sensed that Goku's tone was off. He pretended to be in great pain and said nothing.
Goku lifted him down and said, "Behave, or I'll slap you dead."
After Red Boy was brought down, he claimed that hanging there for so long had left his whole body aching, and that he couldn't ride a horse.
Tang Sanzang said, "Goku, go on, carry him. He's such a cute kid."
"I'm not carrying him."
"Are you going to carry him or not? If you don't, I'll start chanting."
"What the hell, you bald old monk!"
"What the hell, you hairy-faced monkey with Thunder-god Jaws!"
The two of them started cursing at each other.
