“ Wukong , Bajie , please quiet down .” Xuanzang was annoyed . Sha heshang also tried to get them to hush along the way while he was using Google Maps to find the best route .
“ Walk forward to the nearest traffic light , then go left and walk forward …” He became a lot more knowledgeable and surprisingly started to outwin Wukong , who used to be the smartest with a good sense of direction .
Wukong turned more violent , hitting others with his newly acquired skills from violent games , and grew a lot more hot-tempered . He made frequent shouts of excitement “ I won !”
Xuanzang was getting more and more annoyed . He constantly cautioned them to behave , but in vain . When it came to a point he could bear no more , Xuanzang started speaking the Jing Gu spell .
“ Oh Master , please stop ! Please ! ” Wukong was in great pain , rolling on the ground , hands holding his head . “ Sorry master , I am wrong . Please forgive me !” Ashamed of his bad behaviour , he repented . Xuanzang stopped the spell .
“ Master , I see people always using the screen heavily . It is so easy to get addicted .” The monkey went on . “ Wait ! This is the bait from the monsters ! That is exactly their plot after they were defeated by us . They left these tablets to get mankind addicted . Before long , mankind will lose their will power , start fighting , and eventually be destroyed ! Oh no . We must stop the plan !”
Wukong jumped high to the sky , raising his stick , aiming at the iMac . “ STOP !” Yelled Xuanzang . “ I asked you not to play the tablet , not to smash it !”
“ But master , they must be from the monsters .”
Xuanzang comforted the confused Monkey . “ Look , Sha Heshang used the device to help us find the best route and stay safe in severe weather . I don ' t think that ’ s evil , but a useful tool . However , users must exercise self control , which means you should choose the useful apps and set a time limit . Just like your Jing Gu stick , you must use it for the good purpose and never harm innocent people , right ?”
“ Yes master !” All of the three apprentices bowed down with their palms closed . “ Now let ’ s get going !” At the order from Xuanzang , the team reunited once again .
Wukong now was back on track , equipped with not only thousand miles eyesight and hearing but also the weather apps and the GPS to direct the team .
Bajie , though occasionally thinking about the delicious food from video games , was also learning useful Apps .
Sha Heshang was always a reliable team member . He booked flights on Priceline and the hotels via Trivago . Xuanzang was very pleased with their efforts !
Just before they departed for the next city , they stopped by many houses to leave a message , stating ‘ Use tablets wise and well . Set a time limit for your benefits .’
