JOURNEY TO THE WEST Episode 12
Wukong... Look at that village house up ahead
I want to borrow that place to rest for a night
- Go and get some information - yes... yes... yes
Brother let me ask you, what is this place?
Monster
monster? You are the monster!
What is this?
Monster... monster
Monster? Look closely I'm a monk
You are the monster, I'm a monk
you are the monster...
Wu Kong, you can't do this it's disrespectful
master look look
you look look!
He's the one treating me rudely
if you have something to say, say it slowly
I'm sorry
please don't be afraid
I am a passerby monk
i wanna ask you
what place is this?
This is a place along the boundary of Western Tibet
One half clan of people with surname Gao
has called this place Old Gao Estate
Can you guys let me go now?
You are not allowed to leave
Looking at your face, it seems like you're in a rush somewhere
Speak! Where are you going?
If you don't tell me I won't let you go
let go
I've come across 8 generations' worth of bad luck today
Fine I will tell you
I am Elderly Master Gao's servant
My name is Gao Zhai
Elderly Master Gao has a daughter
Three years ago she was taken as possession by a demon
Demon, you see
I am only following my Old Master's orders
And entreating holy people to come back and defeat the demon
Such an early morning, and I again meet a demon!
You! No need to travel far to invite holy monks
And no need to waste money
Go back and tell your master
we are Monks from Tang Empire
Am specifically here to defeat demons
really?
- You can really subdue demons? - Of course
If it's untrue then I am your grandpa
Old master
You stupid slave
why did you turn back?
Old master don't be too excited, I've found it
- You found it? - Yes it's just outside
Quick! Invite them! Quick, invite them in!
Two holy monks, please come in!
Master, come!
Monster... monster
Eh, Old master! Old master!
You death deserving slave
Our house already has an ugly demon for son-in-law!
You're not dumb enough! Bring this nuisance in here!
Do you want to infuriate me?
Old Skull! Have you lived this long in vain?
You only look at appearance how wrong are you
if I am powerful enough to subdue the demons
and return your daughter to you
why should you care how I looked
Wukong
don't be rude
Old master what he's saying is right
that's true
where are you from?
Amitabha
We are from Eastern Land and
on our way to the west for Sutras
you have come from afar
you must be powerful... right
please
come in... lets go in
Sage monk
save my daughter I beg you save my daughter
stand up... stand up... stand up
please stand up
If you have anything to say take your time
please sit down... please sit
- Gao Chai, prepare some tea - Alright
serve tea
Sir, who is the demon?
And what did he do... please tell us
My disciple can capture him
that's right, speak
I'm unfortunate
I only have 3 daughters
Big daughter, second daughter
was betrothed to someone in the village
except the last daughter, Cui Lan
we wanted a son-in-law to marry into our family
to carry our family line
3 years ago...
there's a man
who claimed to be from Fu Ling mountain
named Zhu, no parents nor siblings
and wished to marry into our family
I thought he looked honest
and agreed
when he first came to our family
he's rather hardworking
he works in the field and ploughs the land
without any cow or tools
he harvest from the fields without any sickle
he's really hardworking and eats a lot
how many buns has he eaten?
But its strange that...
he would only work at night
he will sleep in the day
that demon are scared to work in the day
and would be recognized
maybe that's why...
actually this is nothing
but... but sometimes he would change his face
Change his face?
How did he do that?
When he first came
he may be a fat man
but he still looks quite handsome
later, he changed
and has long mouth and big ears and...
and he looks stupid
his body is a human body
but he looks like a pig
Does he look like this?
Monster monster
or like this?
That's worse than our son-in-law
or is it like this?
Old master... mistress
Wu Kong, don't be disrespectful
Sir, although he is also a demon
but he has become a Buddhist monk
and no longer a demon
he showed his power
to convince you
that he could subdue a demon
please do not be scared
please be seated
I'm so scared...
Old guy, don't be afraid. Continue what you were saying...
I was so scared.
Oh, right.
He has a huge appetite.
He can eat lots of rice.
In the morning, he ate 100 flapjacks.
And he was only half-full.
He farmed all the land.
He surely needs to eat a lot.
Food is only a trivial matter.
We were afraid of him
coming and going without a trace
creating a commotion.
It scared us and the villagers.
With no rest.
He also locked our daughter
in the back house.
He won't let us see her for half a year.
We don't even know if she's alive or dead.
Yes. That's why...
we've hired numerous sorcerers to subdue the demon.
We...
we want to withdrew this marriage proposal.
You are really something. You have a deity as a son-in-law.
What luck is that. Why subdue him?
Keep him for your enjoyment.
We don't want such an enjoyment.
Watching other's suffering as a show,
don't you have any benevolence?
Wukong, let's have a talk with Lady Gao.
Let's see what she thinks.
If she truly likes that demon,
then we shouldn't break them up.
But if she was forced,
then you can subdue him.
Thank you
Elders, this way please.
Please, this way.
Master... madam~...
Elder, do you have a weapon?
- How are you going to fight? - Weapon?
I'll show you.
Big.
Awesome?
Weapon of the Gods!
High monk!
Stop blabbering!
Get the key and open the door.
Using a key?
We wouldn't ask for help if a key can solve the problem.
Old guy, you are cunning.
Wants to test me?
Master, the door is opened.
This demon is more powerful than the one inside.
Who's the demon?!
Elder. Elder is powerful.
Please...
Cui Lan...
Mother...
Cui Lan...
Mother... father...
You have suffered.
- Mother. - Cui Lan.
Father, how did you come in here?
Thanks to them both.
- Yes... - Don't be scare.
They are going to help us subdue the demon.
Yes... yes...
Please sit, great monk.
Sit, great monk.
Mother missed you so much.
- Mother. Father. - My child.
Hold off your affections. Let me ask you.
Where did that demon go?
He knows that father wants to subdue him.
That's why, he left early in the morning.
Only comes back when it's the 3rd gong at night.
Disappearing like the fog,
don't know where he went.
Gao Cui Lan, how does the demon treat you?
Beside the fact that he locked me here and not let me see my parents.
He treats me very well.
let me ask you again
was he loving to you?
If your father wants you to break the engagement
are you agreeable?
Actually, when he used to change his face
I was scared
but as the time passes... I got used to that
but he kept me in the room everyday.
I'm restricted on my movements. I'm bored
and I could not see my parents
I cannot eat and was living in fear
but when he was back
he makes me happy
that's why in this world, there's no perfect person
Master, Old Gao
Heard that? She cannot bear to leave the 'son-in-law'
Nonetheless, he's a demon and not a human.
What do you say? If a man is heartless, he would be a demon
if he has a heart, he would be a deity
but they are from different world
are they compatible?
Even if its between a deity and human
we have not seen a good ending
that Cowherd and the Weaving maiden is also separated from each other
Lady Gao, you are right
in my opinion, your Gao family is not staying alone
you are also subjected to views from others
now, you have a demon as son-in-law
all your relatives are scared and refuse to come
you are alienated and isolated
Wu Kong, you should totally understand this feelings
I was bullied in Heaven
that's why I don't want the demon to be bullied too
that's right, if you did not create trouble in the past
you would be a deity now
Master, stop nagging
just speak your mind
all your nagging is giving me a headache
that is worse than the head ring chant
in my opinion, you can observe that demon
to determine if he is good or evil
If he's evil then get rid of him.
If he's good, then let's discuss more of this.
How's that?
I think your idea is good.
But please don't hurt him.
Don't worry. I know you care about him.
Transform.
Mom... mom...
why is there another Cui Lan?
Damn demon. Why isn't he here yet?
I'm already flustered for waiting so long.
Wife.
He's here.
Wife.
Wife. I'm here.
Wife.
What happened?
Here...
Let me help you message your body.
Here...
What are you doing?!
Husband, why are you down there?
Wife, let's stop playing
I, old pigsy
came from afar
you must care for me
Husband...
come... give me a kiss
You've flatten my pig's nose.
Is there blood?
My wife... don't play
I'm here from afar
come let me care for you
You want to kill me by falling?
Its all your fault
you kept me here for 6 months
I'm feeling sick all over
come... let me massage your leg
Husband, you are really good to me
but I'm not fortunate enough to enjoy this
I will be meeting King of Hell soon (die)
Wife, why are you saying these?
I'm telling the truth.
One day, after a sleep
there's a big lump on my leg
the blood inside doesn't come out
and I cannot reach it to suck the blood out
It hurts!
Wife, don't worry. I... I...
I'll help you suck it out.
Wife, it's all good now.
It ruptured.
I'll blow it for you. It won't hurt.
Its difficult being your wife
why... how could you say that?
Ever since I came to your Gao family...
although I eat a lot
but I also worked for my food... right?
The few ten plots of land... I farmed it myself
your family saved a lot of salary on that
that's what you think
my parents think otherwise
since we are married
you are their son-in-law
since you are their son-in-law
we don't even know your name and where you lived
this... this is really an insult to reputation of our Gao family
who insulted...
who insulted your Gao family?
Cui Lan, I do look a bit ugly
but we were married for so many years
I thought you are used to my look and didn't mind?
Right... if anyone asked you about my name
just tell him that
my home is at Fu Ling mountain, Yun Zhan Cave
my family name is like my face: Zhu (pig)
I heard from my father that he wanted to
find a powerful monk to subdue you
what should you do?
Relax... I have transformation skills
and a 9-teeth rake
what priest, shaman or monks can't do anything to me
even if your father invited Demon monk here, I'm not scared
I know him
He won't dare to hurt me.
What if my father hired that Sun Wukong
who created havoc in the Heaven 500 years ago?
Protector of Horses... wife
we cannot be a couple anymore
I will hide first and will visit you again
Stop!
See for yourself who I really am.
The Great Sage Equal to Heaven.
Since you recognize your grandpa,
you should give up now.
It's a nice day today...
Wants to escape?
I'm not playing with you!
Stupid pig. Where do you think you're going?!
Where do you come from, demon?
How come you know my titled name?
Tell me the truth or I won't let you live.
I was a deity from Heaven too
I'm TianPeng Marshal in charge of 10,000 Heavenly navy
I was banished to earth because I violated Heaven's law
but I was reincarnated wrongly into a pig
That's why I turned into this.
So... you are Tian Peng Marshal
No wonder you know my titled name.
You arrogant Protector of Horses
you created that chaos and implicated us too
today, you bullied me I will not tolerate anymore
you stupid pig is silly but cute
fine... then today let your grandpa have some fun with you
Cute? Let me give you a few 'loving' rake
come
Fight with me?!
Big.
Dead monkey. I'll stomp you to death.
Idiot. Come again.
I'm over here.
Stop playing.
I want to.
Nice day?
The day is nice.
What? Who is it?
Aren't you tired?
Rest and drink some water.
No!
Okay, let's continue.
Protector of Horses
Do you really want to kill me?!
I wanted to let you and your wife resolve your issues
if not, I would have killed you
kneel down and kowtow
- You're here? Nice day, right? - Who?
Stupid pig!
He has some smarts.
To be able to trick me.
Forget it! I'll have some tea
and come back for you later.
That Elder Sun has been gone for the whole day
was he captured by the demon or did he subdue the demon?
Old master, please don't worry that Elder Sun has great abilities
I'm sure he can capture that demon
- Really? - Yes, yes.
If he takes a life because of us, Gao family
we would be so sorry towards him
You don't need to worry.
In the past, he fought with 10,000 Heavenly soldiers
This little demon cannot harm him.
Dad, mom.
Look.
Master.
Elder Sun, did you capture that demon?
You didn't kill him... right?
No.
We fought for the whole day. Now, he's hiding in a cave
and won't come out.
Elder Sun, although you chased him away
but once you leave, he would be back again
what should we do? That's right
that demon told me that he worked for his food here
and he saved the salaries for all these years
he claimed to be a deity from Heaven to work for your family
Old man, in my opinion
you are of equal status in marriage
you... just let him be your son-in-law
Elder Sun, what you said makes sense
but he is still a demon!
Demon?
Just because he's ugly so he's a demon?!
Buddha and Guan Yin Bodhisattva also moves around in their clouds
- You dare to say their demons too?! - No... no...
those goverment officers looked like human
they are all corrupted and cheated people's money
Are they humans or demons then?!
This...
Sage monk... please say something
Do you think we should get rid of him or not?
Yes?
Wukong, please tell us your opinion
when 2 parties have a quarrel
there must be some misunderstandings
Ma... Master.
I... I don't want the lady to be sad.
The proverb says: 'a couple are like birds...
they would save themselves when there's trouble'
that big-headed son-in-law hides in the cave
when he knew I wanted to capture him
he even decline to continue this marriage
Missy, this man is not dependable
I have given deep thoughts about this
this demon transform itself into human form to be married
why didn't he keep his transfor- mation to live his life in
peace?
He reveals his natural form to all
he may have other thoughts
Master, you are right
I will go and subdue that demon again
Fat Pig! Come out here! Or I'll break down your door!
Fa Pig! Come out here and fight with me!
Hurry and come out!
Come out quickly
Protector of Horses
Come and fight with me!
Hurry! Come out!
He's too much... I can't bear with it anymore
you Pigsy... are really stupid
you knew that I found your cave
but you didn't escape
and still sleeps in there?
Protector of Horses, you are too much
my dispute with Gao family has nothing to do with you
yet you confronted me
Alright, I am not to be bullied by you
you sounded quite 'impressive'
show me a few tricks
alright... don't move watch my rake
Wa... wait...
you want to hit me with your farming old rake?
Old rake? Alright, I shall put 9 holes in your head
put in some wheats and next year I could fill my stomach
come... take my raking
you stinky pig... you are not only stupid
you don't have a good memory?
500 years ago, when I created havoc in Heaven
Heavenly soldiers tried to kill me with blade and knifes
Lightning and fire... they couldn't hurt me
the Great Elder burned me for 49 days
but I gain my fiery eyes and iron body
what can you do with your old rake?
If not... you can try to rake me again
You stinky monkey
ever since you were pinned under
the 5 element mountain by Buddha
why didn't you stay put there? Did you came to bully me?
That's because I was saved by a monk.
He became my Master.
I'm protecting him on the journey to the west.
We were taking a rest in Gao's house
and Old Gao requested us to subdue you
the Sutra man?
Where is that person?
Please introduce me to him
Why do you want to see him?
Actually, I was enlightened by Guan Yin Bodhisattva
and she wanted me to wait for the Sutra man here
and followed him to the west
to pay for my sins and attain enlightenment
but I waited for many years without any news
you were waiting for the Sutra man?
Cut the craps
why didn't you tell me
that you were the disciple of the Sutra man?
And even bullies and fight with me
you... are you trying to cheat me with your tricks
i even throw my rake away... how could I lied?
swear to Heaven! I would bring you to my Master
Swear? Alright
Amitabha
I, old Pigsy shall swear that I'm speaking the truth
if not, I would be split into pieces
is that good enough?
Why didn't Guan Yin Bodhisattva
select a better disciple for Master?
What do you mean by that?!
What are you doing?!
Get up and go see Master with me.
Get up.
Let's go see Master.
Old master... mistress
Old master, Elder Sun is back with that demon
Easy on the ears.
Parent-in-law, my respect to you
Wife, come out!
Look, your husband is back!
Wife.
Wife, don't be sad.
They... they're not here to capture me.
I have been waiting for them... wife
This...
Don't be sad.
Wife! Wife!
Idiot! Where are you going?!
Bow to Master.
Wukong...
Master, your disciple has been late in receiving you
if I knew that you were staying here, I would... would
I would have come to pay my respect
instead of these troubles
Wukong... how did you get him here?
Idiot. Tell Master everything.
Master, allow me to tell you
I was Heavenly Marshal Tianpeng, in charge of Heaven river
when the moon raises from the east
and moves over the milky way to the west
I would see Lady Chang-e
except for a few days in a year
Marshal Tianpeng, you have worked hard
thats nothing, its my duty to be here
I don't need to come out at night for that few days
and I could take a stroll in the day
but you need to work every night, its really hard on you
I'm used to it, actually its hard on Sister Chang-e too
in your moon palace, you only get a full moon once a month
and you get full lights
the rest of the days are in a dimmer light
that's a bit sad
I choose to stay there
I choose this lifestyle
when we met, we would see each other and chat
before she return to her moon palace
you dumb head, are you satisfied?
As proverbs say: 'Feelings grew overtime'
when I'm sober, I could control myself
but no one knows my feelings
but I was invited to the peach banquet
and drank a few cups of wine
thats 'trouble of the brew'
Marshal TianPeng, you have worked hard
Sister Chang-e, don't go tonight
Marshal TianPeng, what is the matter?
Sister Chang-e, let me ask you
aren't you lonely in that moon palace?
Don't you need someone to accompany you?
I have so many palace maids and I have a Jade rabbit pet
why would I feel lonely?
That's different.
They're all girls.
What kind of comfort can they give you?
Marshal TianPeng, you must be drunk
wash your face in the Heavenly river
I need to go back
Sister Chang-e, don't go
I loved you for a long, long time
You're drunk.
I'm not drunk.
Sister Chang-e, please listen to me
I see you every night, but I could only chat with you
I'm so miserable
actually, what I wanted to say is
forget about that man, HouYi (Chang-e 's husband)
Please accept my feelings
Sister Chang-e
Marshal Tianpeng
we met and chat every night because of our duties
I didn't know that you actually have such thoughts
since there's no one around now
I will not tell others about it, I shall go now
No... Sister Chang-e
Marshal TianPeng
what do you have to say to defend yourself?
Your Majesty, I was drunk
please have mercy on me
'One will normally speaks the truth after a drink'
you were using that to boast your guts
actually, you already have lust thoughts
isn't it?
Emperor... l...
I won't do it again.
I won't drink again.
Please have mercy
your majesty, have mercy
Emperor.
Marshal TianPeng is afraid of loneliness
regardless of your punishment for him
don't ask him to take care of the Heavenly river again
I don't want to see him again.
You...
your majesty, please have mercy
come... someone
take Marshal TianPeng out and
give him 2000 strokes of hard beating
Send him down to earth as a human.
