Getting Rid of the Demoness

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong said to Tang Xuanzang, "No need to say more, I will naturally eliminate him when the time comes."

After speaking, Sun Wukong instructed Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing to guard Tang Xuanzang in front of the lamp, while Sun Wukong himself happily went to the Buddha Hall to watch. He saw that there were still stars in the sky, but the moon had not yet risen, and the surroundings were extremely dark.

So Sun Wukong blew out real fire to light lamps and started beating drums and bells. After thinking for a moment, he transformed into a little monk, only twelve or thirteen years old, wearing a yellow robe, a white cloth wrapped around his head, striking a wooden fish in his hand, and chanting scriptures.

There was still no movement at one o'clock in the morning. At two o'clock in the morning, the waning moon slowly rose. A gust of wind blew, and the black mist filled the sky. Sorrowful clouds shrouded the area, and the surroundings were as dark as if ink had been splashed on the ground.

A cloud of dust billowed up, and after a short while, the starlight could be faintly seen.

As soon as the wind blew by, a mysterious fragrance wafted through the air, followed by the sound of bells. Looking up, one could see a fair-skinned, beautiful woman slowly walking up into the Buddhist hall.

Sun Wukong kept muttering scriptures, and the woman stepped forward and hugged him, saying, "Elder, what scriptures are you chanting?"

"That's none of your business. I'll just focus on my chanting. If you want to change your mind, go somewhere else."

The woman asked Sun Wukong with a puzzled look, "Everyone else is sleeping over there, why are you chanting scriptures here?"

"I am a monk, why don't I chant scriptures?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong countered with a question.

However, the woman embraced Sun Wukong and said to Sun Wukong, "Stop chanting Buddhist scriptures here, come with me for a stroll in the back courtyard."

After speaking, Sun Wukong deliberately turned his head and said, "Actually, there are some things you don't know."

However, the woman seemed to have misunderstood Sun Wukong's meaning, and asked Sun Wukong with a puzzled look, "Can you tell people by their faces?"

Sun Wukong nodded and said, "I know a little bit about it."

"Then tell me what I look like?"

The woman covered her mouth and chuckled softly, looking at Sun Wukong with a charming expression.

After carefully observing you, Sun Wukong slowly said, "Judging from your attire and appearance, you must have been kicked out by your mother-in-law."

"You're completely wrong. It wasn't that my mother-in-law kicked me out; it was just bad luck. Everyone says I'm cursed to bring misfortune to my husbands because no one who marries me survives more than three days."

After speaking, the woman showed a hint of sadness on her face, trying to gain Sun Wukong's sympathy.

The woman then composed herself and continued speaking to Sun Wukong:

"Since the moonlight is so beautiful now, and I've traveled all this way to get here, I'll take you to the backyard to have some fun."

Sun Wukong nodded upon hearing this, then thought to himself, "Those monks must have been seduced by this woman, which is why they lost their lives. Now she's here to deceive me too."

Then, Sun Wukong casually replied, "I'm still young, I don't understand what you're saying at all."

The woman was overjoyed upon hearing this and pulled Sun Wukong along towards the backyard. Sun Wukong chuckled to himself, "Never mind, I won't say anything more to her. I'll go with her now and see what she's up to."

Then the two of them held hands and walked out of the Buddhist temple together, heading towards the back garden. The demon then used a trick on Sun Wukong, causing Sun Wukong to fall to the ground.

The monster then pinched at the flesh on Sun Wukong's body. Sun Wukong was greatly surprised upon seeing this, thinking to himself, "It seems this monster has finally lost its patience and wants to eat me."

Sun Wukong pondered for a moment, then continued, "If I don't strike her now, when will I ever get another chance? As the saying goes, 'The first to strike wins.'"

After thinking for a moment, he put his hands on his hips and jumped up, revealing his true form. He raised his Ruyi Jingu Bang) and struck her head. The demon was taken aback, thinking to herself, "This little monk is quite powerful."

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Sun Wukong, the eldest disciple of Tang Xuanzang. However, the demon was not afraid of Sun Wukong at all, because the demon was also the beloved daughter of Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li- Bearing Heavenly King, and the unrelated sibling of Third Prince Nezha.

Then the demon raised her sword and began to fight Sun Wukong. However, Sun Wukong was in high spirits and showed no mercy. The demon knew she was no match for Sun Wukong and tried to escape, but Sun Wukong immediately shouted:

"You monster, stop right now! Where do you think you're going?"

The monster completely ignored him, and Sun Wukong just kept retreating. When Sun Wukong arrived, he immediately took off his shoes, blew a breath of immortal energy, and transformed back into his original form.

Then he raised the two swords and swung them at Sun Wukong, but Sun Wukong dodged in a panic, and the monster fled.

At the same time, the demon took advantage of Tang Xuanzang's Tang Xuanzang and captured him. Sun Wukong was very anxious, so he struck the demon down with his staff. It turned out to be an embroidered shoe.

Sun Wukong naturally knew he had fallen for her scheme. When he turned to look at his master again, he had vanished. All he saw were Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing blaming each other.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong became furious. Ignoring all reason, he raised his staff and struck both Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing, shouting, "You people are utterly unreasonable! I'll kill you all right now!"

Zhu Bajie also panicked and had nowhere to run, while Sha Wujing, being a general of Spirit Mountain and having seen more of the world, quickly knelt down and said to Sun Wukong, "Brother, I know you want to fight us both, but let's rescue Master first."

Even if I kill both of you, I can still save him by myself.

Upon hearing Sun Wukong snorted coldly, but Sha Wujing laughed and said, "Brother, what are you saying? Without the two of us, it would be impossible to manage alone. Who would look after these luggage and horses then?"

Hearing Sha Wujing pleading for mercy, Sun Wukong changed his mind and said, "You two get up first. Tomorrow, go find our master. Remember, you must do your best."

The three of them sat there until dawn, then prepared to pack their belongings. After a short while, a monk came up and asked, "Where are you all going?"

After speaking, Sun Wukong smiled helplessly and said:

"This is really hard to say. Yesterday I boasted to you that I would catch the monster, but now I haven't caught it, and my master has disappeared. So we're planning to go look for him now."

The crowd, filled with fear, hurriedly said, "Master, please don't go! This is no small matter; it will only implicate your master. What should we do?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong sneered.
