W
hile Xuanzamg ,SunWunkong ,ZhuBajie and Sha Wuging were on their way, they met a
beautiful young lady. She had two dark blue eyes thatwere asshiny as stars, pink cheeks that
were as pink as flowers, a small nose and red lips. She also had long brown hair. Zhu Bajie
immediately fell head over heels for her, as ifhe was drunk. So did Sun Wukong and Sha Wuging. The
young lady flirted around Xuanzamg didn’t even look at her a bit. ‘You boys look tired and hungry.’ She
said. Her voice was like angels singing. Every word she said made Zhu Bajie dozier and dozier. then she
continued. ‘Why don’t you come to my house and have some snacks and stay for a night.’ ‘We’d love to!’
said Sun Wukong. Then they followed the young girl back to her house.
In her house, there were little chubby servants cleaning the house. At the corner of the house, there
stood three beautiful, there stood three beautiful girls. The first one had red hair and wore a long shiny
yellow dress. The second one had black hair and wore a long purple dress. The last one had orange hair and
wore a brown dress. The three girls and the young lady looked alike. It was clear that they were sisters.
They played games with Sun Wukong and his friends. Sun Wukong noticed that the four sisters kept trying
to get attention from Xuanzamg. But they were always ignored by him. At night, the four sisters told the
servants to prepare the most comfortable beds for Sun Wukong and his friends. They were happy.
At night, while Zhu Bajie ,Sha Wujing and Xuanzamg were asleep, Sun Wukong was left awake. He
can’t sleep because of Zhu Bajie’s loud snoring. Suddenly, he heard the four girls talking in their room.
‘When should we eat Xuanzamg’s flesh? I’m tired of eating human food!’ one of them said. Sun Wukong
was surprised! The four sisters were actually Yokais who wanted to eat Xuanzang’s flesh! He to protect
Xuanzamg. ‘Let’s take Xuanzamg with us while he’s sleeping. Then we can enjoy him in our secret cave!’
one of them said again. Sun Wukong heard them coming. So he pretended to beasleep. Snoring loudly.
With his half- closed eyes, he watched until he gets the chance to stop them. While two of the sisters lifted
Xuanzamg into the bean bag, Sun Wukong jumped out of his bed and pointed at the girls. Sun Wukong
shouted ‘Stop you evil Yokais!’ Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing woke up. They realized what was happening.
They grab their weapons and pointed them at the Yokais. The Yokais couldn’t fight as young ladies. So they
took off their disguises and turned into a four-headed snake. Their voice was no longer like music from
heaven. Instead, it was like a screeching horse sinking in a mud pool. The horrible voice could make a ten-
year-old child cry. The house turned into a dark spooky cave. Zhu Bajie was already backing away. The
little chubby servants turned into goblins, with grey skin and pointy ears. Zhu Bajie panicked ‘ We’re dead
for sure!’ But Sun Wukong was calm. He quickly grabbed his friends and hid outside the cave. While Sun
Wukong was thinking of a plan, a brown box caught his eye. He told Sha Wujing to take care of the others
while he takes a look at the brown box. He flipped it around and around, trying to get a clue about it. Then
he realized that the box was the source of the cave. If its destroyed, the cave will disappear with everything
in it. So he quickly turned himself into a tiger and chewed the box until it was in pieces. Suddenly, a storm
came and washed the cave away. The Yokais and goblins were washed away, leaving a pile of bones under
the water. Sun Wukong and his friends escaped from the storm. Now they’re safe. So they continued on
their journey to the west.
