JOURNEY TO THE WEST Episode 45
It's me...
Heavens me!
Wh... what do you want?!
King of Hades wants me to come and get you.
Grandpa White, please go back and report to King of Hades.
Tell him that my Big senior is his friend.
Ask him to come for me on another day.
Nonsense!
If King of Hades wants someone to die, no one can escape.
Follow me quickly...
to make it easier for me.
Please... Grandpa White.
Look at me now, I'm already going to die soon.
Tell you what...
wait till the demons got my Master.
Then you could come for us at that time.
This way, we could also see each other for the last time.
Even if we have to die, we shall die together.
Fine. Fine.
I have about 30 people to get, which is around here.
I need about 1 day to get all of them.
What can you offer to me?
I need money to do my things too.
What the!
I mean, monk doesn't have silver.
No silver! Then come with me.
No...
Grandpa White,
I know that your rope is known as 'Soul-snatching Rope'
Anyone will die if you strangle that person with it.
I have some silver.
But it's not much.
Where?
Show it to me.
Grandpa White.
Why are you crying?!
If you have silver, show it to me.
If not, leave with me.
Grandpa, you didn't know...
I'm actually an ill-fated person.
Ever since I became a monk,
only 2 of the alms-offering families...
gave me more when they saw that I'm a big eater.
I'm actually very thrifty.
All these years, I only managed to save 5 coins.
My god.
You are one calculating monk.
Where's the silver?
If you want, take it all.
The silver is at...
Say it!
It's hidden behind my right ear.
It's you! Protector of Horses.
How could you fool me when I'm in this state?
I'll get even with you!
- My god! - Idiot.
I, Pigsy... will get even with you!
You're a selfish idiot.
You aren't so good when fighting demons,
but you are good at hoarding money.
Brother Monkey, what's that little money?
I worked hard to save those money.
I was hoping to get some winter clothing this winter.
But now, you got them.
Brother monkey, let's discuss this.
You... can you save some money for me?
There's no silver.
But do you still want your life?
Brother monkey, please have mercy on me.
I want to keep both.
I can ponder about saving you.
Silver...
No.
Then... then hurry up and save me.
- Idiot. - I feel so uncomfortable.
Brother monkey, I think...
we should take the back door.
Useless fool,
you came by the front door but want to leave by the back?
Wait, I'm tied up there for too long.
My legs are numb and wobbly.
I don't have any energy.
Then what?
Let me borrow your shoulder.
Can we leave now?
Yes, we can.
Slow down, my legs are numb.
I cannot control my legs.
Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie.
Brother monkey, attack them.
Let go.
Report back to the Great King.
Brother monkey, they ran away.
In order, not to hinder you
you should carry me on your back.
Carry you?
It's faster that way.
Okay, come on.
Come on.
I'm coming.
One, two, three...
Carry you? No way.
What kind of sect brother are you?!
You bullied me.
I'll run after you.
Dem...
Sun Wukong. Do you think you can escape?!
Your Big King was tortured by me previously.
It seems that if I don't do the same to you, you will be sad.
Alright, we shall fulfill your wishes.
That's right!
Watch me!
This monkey... he's always great when he bullies me.
Brother monkey!
Use your staff to attack his nose.
Good idea, Bajie.
Yeah!
Demon.
I'll kill you.
If you kill him, Master will reprimand us again.
Don't you have a brain?!
Hurry up.
Master, they caught the demon back.
Master.
Hurry up.
Kneel.
Why didn't you kneel?
My respect to Sage monk.
Will you escort us across the mountain now?
If you could spare my life, I'll carry you across with a sedan.
I promise that.
I will spare your life for now, return and prepare the sedan.
Yes... yes...
If you lie again, I won't spare your life.
Yes, I'm also being kind today.
I'll spare you Elephant.
What are you looking at?!
Go and prepare the sedan quickly.
- Yes... - Hurry up.
Look at him...
Are you two alright?
We're fine.
What could happen to me?
Isn't that right?
Second brother, Sun Wukong is a smart person...
and good fighter.
When he's inside my stomach,
he could have killed me easily.
Just now he also grabbed your nose and
if he refuse to let you go,
your nose will not recover so quickly.
We've already lost twice.
Let's follow the agreement and let them pass.
Brother, are you serious?
Yes and we must do it personally.
Brother, you don't sound sincere about it.
Are you angry with us?
If you are not willingly, we will do it instead.
Brother, if that monk refuse our sedan...
and sneak across, it's his good fortune.
If he waited for us, he will be walking into our trap.
Trap? What do you mean?
400 miles from here is my Lion City.
I have arranged for my people there.
When we reach the city boundary, they will be trapped.
At that moment, it will be easy to capture Tang monk.
Good idea.
Halt.
Master from Tang Empire.
Today is an auspicious day,
please set off early.
You are always lying to us I hope it's real this time.
Everyone, please relax.
We won't dare to play any tricks again.
Master, please get into the sedan.
Master.
Disciples...
let's go.
- Junior Sha, you take the luggage. - Master, let's go.
I'll take the horse.
Raise the sedan.
Brother monkey...
I wonder if Master feels comfortable inside.
Brother monkey...
Something's not right.
What's the matter?
Oh no.
No!
Stop!
Master!
Master.
Master...
Elder sect brother!
Brother monkey...
Junior Sha...
I could travel 18000 miles in 1 somersault...
and this demon could catch up too.
Great Sage, just wait for the news here.
Minions.
Great King.
Let me see.
Great King.
He looks tender.
Not bad...
Take him away.
Yes.
Great King.
Master.
Bajie. Wujing.
It seems that this Lion City is their real hideout.
Wukong, whenever we got into trouble...
you will be helping us from outside.
But this time you are also caught.
It was all my fault.
Master, what should we do?
Normally, these demons are all afraid of elder sect brother.
And won't dare to eat you.
Along the journey,
we always managed to escape from our tribulations.
But this time
even elder sect brother was captured too.
Its as good as a widow who lost her only son,
'Hopeless'
Second sect brother it doesn't matter if we die.
The important thing is to save Master.
Master don't worry.
Bajie, stop crying.
I guarantee your safety.
When the three demons fall asleep,
I'll think of a way to save all of you.
Brother monkey, I've always admired you about this.
You are always boasting.
Look at the rope used on us. There's water on it.
You didn't feel anything but I felt it.
I cannot escape.
No matter what rope they used,
it's not difficult for me.
With Big senior around, I'm sure Master will be saved.
Minions.
Yes.
5 of you will clean the pots,
10 will prepare the fire and 10 will get the water.
20 of you bring out the cage.
Steam all the monks as food for us.
We will spare some with all of you too.
So that all of you will gain longevity too.
Brother monkey, did you hear that?
They want to steam us.
Bajie, don't worry.
We shall see their powers.
Big senior we are already at the door of Hades.
What tricks are you playing?
Minions...
We shall not steam Zhu Bajie.
Amitabha.
They are not going to steam me.
It's better to skin him before steaming him.
N... no... I... I...
I'm good... my skin is thin.
Put him at the bottom of the steamer.
Hey, place Zhu Bajie at the bottom.
How so?
When you steam food,
you should place the harder food on the top.
Just add another fire at the top.
He wanted to place you at the bottom.
What if you blocked all the steams?
He's really stupid.
Stop saying it.
All these will kill me.
Great King, the soup is ready.
Good.
Take them away and place on the steamer.
This really is the end!
Now we are really in the steamer!
Let me out!
- Brother monkey... - Let me out!
Junior Sha... Master...
- Let me out! - Put it on.
Put the lid on.
Master...
More heat...
More...
Master... Let me out!
Wukong...
Bajie and Monk Sha could hang on a bit more.
But my Master cannot take it.
What should I do?
Lt will be terrible if I cannot save them.
Northern Sea Dragon pays his respect to Great Sage.
My Master was caught by demons and was about to be steamed.
Please protect him from the steam.
Great Sage, no need to worry.
'Tripataka chanting Buddhist Chants'
Hurry... hotter...
- Minions. - Yes, Great King.
When this is done we'll eat them together.
Yes!
Why aren't the fire ready?
Are you being lazy?
Great King we cannot start the fire.
Add more wood.
Yes.
Hotter...
I'm having a flu now, it's good to have a steam.
Hey you outside... add more woods.
You are really a useless demon.
Stop saying that.
It's okay to be cold.
If it gets hot we will all suffer.
Yes you're right.
Hey you outside, go easy with the woods.
It's cold now, do take a rest inside.
We will take care of ourselves to save you some troubles.
What's that pig talking about?
He's the trouble one.
And he takes the longest to be cooked.
We need to hurry.
Great King just came to check on us.
They're waiting for the food.
Yes, hurry.
Oh no, the fire is ready, Master.
Master, I'll be leaving first. (Meaning to die first)
I'll get the Mengpo soup (reincarnation soup)
Ready and wait for you there (in Hades).
The fire has started, I can hear the sound.
Make the water hotter.
Master, I've come to save you.
Master.
- Wukong. - Elder sect brother.
Master, are you alright?
Brother monkey...
I just knew that you are most loyal.
How could you leave me in the fix?
Idiot, not so loud.
If those demons heard you, they will steam you again.
I'll be a mute.
Bajie, you take care of Master.
After I retrieve the horse and the luggage we'll leave.
Dragon king, come out.
Sage Monk.
It was him helping us.
No wonder it didn't feel hot in there.
Thank you for your help.
Sage monk, you have worked hard along the journey.
I'm just offering some help, it's nothing.
Farewell.
Let's go, Master.
Let's go...
Hurry up...
Master, hurry.
Bajie, hurry.
Keep up the pace.
Master...
Let's hurry and leave.
There are over 10,000 demons.
How are we going to get out?
Be quiet.
Master, let's take the back door.
Hurry before they find us.
Let's go, Master.
What happened?!
Get up!
What happened?!
Is the water ready?
The water is ready.
Ready?!
The fire is out. How are you boiling it?!
Big brother, the rope...
Rope!
Could it be Sun Wukong...
Tripitaka, you can't escape.
Junior Sha, protect Master.
Yes.
That's all you have?!
Second sect brother!
Master.
Bajie.
Master!
Bajie.
Second sect brother.
I will fight you!
Master!
Brother monkey!
Monkey, you should save us!
Great, now it's back to the steamer again.
Take Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha away.
Take them away!
- Master! - Wujing, Bajie!
Tripitaka.
Big brother, are you going to devour him alive?
That's my plan.
Big brother, Tang monk is a rare food.
He's not normal human.
How could we devour him like normal food?
We must wash him clean.
And we shall eat him while having a performance.
That's right.
You are right.
But what if Sun Wukong comes again?
Big brother...
I've a Fragrance pavilion behind my palace.
There's a metal cabinet, let's lock him there.
After that,
we will send rumors that we have devoured Tang monk.
I'm sure Sun Wukong will come.
And if he heard that rumor, he will leave.
After a few days, we could enjoy Tang monk in peace.
It's better to eat him raw.
I'm worried that there will be trouble.
Wh... what should we do?
What should we do?
What do you want?!
I'm thirsty, give me some water!
Heard me?!
If I'm thirsty, my meat will be dry.
Don't blame me if that happens.
Damn you demons!
Eat me raw if you want.
Why steam me? It's a waste of firewood.
Why are you torturing me?
Brother monkey, where are you?!
Get away!
Where are you?!
Who are you?
Idiot.
I'm your brother monkey.
I came to save you.
Master, he... was devoured alive by those demons.
Brother Monkey, I know.
Please don't panic and scare me.
I'm also anxious, that's just my guess.
I cannot verify the news.
Please double check.
Don't panic, Brother monkey.
Brother monkey.
Damn demons!
Master!
Elder sect brother...
- Junior... - Elder sect brother...
I came to save you.
No, you don't need to save me.
Master is dead.
How could I still stay alive?
You should go. I'm staying here.
I want to die... along with Master.
Master...
Is really dead?
Master...
Master!
Master.
Master...
Master!
This staff of mine will become long at my command.
It can be as long as 50 m.
I just need to shake it and make it grow thick.
It could be 8 m thick in diameter.
Even if there's 50000 little demons.
I could kill them all.
I will smash and turn them into mud.
Master...
Along this journey, you didn't harm anyone.
But I'm going to kill lots of demons now.
You are always so merciful.
Master, why did you suffer such a fate?
Even if I killed them all, I can't save you now.
Even with my powers,
it's as good as nothing.
Originally, I wanted to escort you to the West.
Now, it's a big joke.
Master...
Master!
It's all his doings.
Buddha.
I shall ask you for an answer.
If you are really merciful, Buddha.
Please give me the Sutras...
so that I could deliver it to Eastern Land.
Firstly, I could spread Buddhism.
Secondly, it will fulfill our wishes.
If you refuse, just give me the chant to release my head ring.
Let me remove my head ring...
so that I could return to my mountain.
You may be defeated by the 3 demons.
But you aren't shamed.
Those 3 demons were formed since...
Heaven and Earth was created.
They have always devoured Dragons as food.
I'm not feeling down because of my failure.
I'm just feeling sorry for Master.
I only know how to fight for powers since I'm born.
I'm never bothered by rules.
No one bothers to teach me either.
Only when I met Chen XuanZhan (Tripitaka).
He may be a helpless and powerless man.
But he's merciful, brave and smart,
he's a person I admired.
Since Master is already dead. My heart...
is also dead.
That's too haste.
What do you mean by that?
That Big and Second demons have their own master.
Samantabhadra.
Manjusri.
Both Bodhisattvas shall follow me...
and subdue the demons for you.
Why are you in a daze? Go to the Lion city and declare war.
Don't win them in the fight.
We will come and assist you later.
Brothers, it's Third brother's credit...
that we could devour Tang monk today.
That's right. Here's a toast to you.
Here.
I'm so happy when Sun Wukong was tricked.
Third Brother are good in skills and wits too.
It's because you always devour dragons.
I will offer you a toast too.
Here...
Sun Wukong?!
Wukong.
Master...
3 of you old demons.
If you are really good, come out and fight with me.
You are a coward if you refuse.
Come after me.
Stop!
