Journey to the West: Demon Chapter Page #2

---

From now on, I'll be obedient.

What are you saying?

I'm not punishing you.

Master, you surely know...

...my brothers and I,

we are all of one heart.

If you punish Brother Monkey,

then my heart aches too.

And my heart is really aching!

That's so true.

When I hit you, my heart really aches.

Master, try it if you don't believe us.

When I punish you...

...I suffer heartache too.

If I'd set off to find the sutras on my own,

I'd have got there long ago.

Having you with me doesn't help at all.

I can subdue 100 foes single-handedly.

But I prefer to hide my powers.

My Buddha's Palm is so powerful,

but, again, keeping a low profile.

So it's not that you're helping me

to find the sutras.

I'm helping you to make merit

and learn Buddhism.

Do I make myself crystal clear?

Do you get it?

Yes, we do.

That's enough for now.

Think about what I've said.

Meeting over.

Sinful monkey!

I'll show you my Buddha's Palm!

Did you miss me?

Master's mind has reached

such a high level...

...he's even teasing Brother Monkey.

That's not Brother Monkey

he's embracing.

It's someone else.

-Amitabha, Amitabha.

-Master, you seemed happy last night.

We were happy to see you happy.

But we won't tell on you.

What are you on about?

No water left.

Second Brother, fetch some water.

Why do I have to do it?

How did you come up with that idea?

-Why don't you go?

-Stop quarreling, I'll go.

Almsgiver, excuse me.

I was just passing.

May I trouble you for water to boil rice?

There's no need for that.

You're welcome to eat here.

I'm a vegetarian.

What luck!

We're having vegetarian food.

We're devout too,

we share the same path.

It's natural for us to share our meal.

And you can stay after eating.

We'll be able to compare notes.

He's ill, won't he taste bad?

Never mind, we can heal him first.

It would be impolite to refuse.

No need to cook! Come and eat here!

What about my congee?

I prepared it this morning.

Your congee will be burnt.

Go back and watch the fire.

Almsgiver, your medicine works a treat.

I feel better already.

These three are my delinquent disciples.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Don't flirt.

Nice to meet you.

To hell with that, what's nice about it?

Sandy, what are you saying?

I was cooking congee.

Master, what are you up to?

"Nice, nice, nice...."

What do you all think you're doing?

I'm sorry, my disciple is

a touch simple-minded.

-It doesn't matter.

-May I just ask you...

...are there any demons here?

Master, please don't scare me.

Why would there be demons here?

You're going too far.

Why ask such a question?

Actually...

...we conquer demons.

I did wonder. Really?

You've been so hospitable,

but we have nothing to repay it.

All I can offer is a one-off exorcism.

Really? You're terribly kind.

But, sad to say...

...there are no demons here.

See my face?

Hit me.

Come on, quick!

If you don't, I'll beat you to death!

Really? Why?

Scum!

I told you to hit me.

I'll ask you again.

Hit me, you a**hole!

Have you lost it again?

I'm not an a**hole!

You definitely are.

But I was calling her an a**hole, not you.

Damn you!

You a**holes take me as your master?

Clear out of here!

Sorry about that.

Get out, all of you.

She kindly invited us to eat.

You bang her table

and ask her to hit you...

...and call her an a**hole.

Go and face the wall.

Contemplate what you've done.

What have you ever contributed

to society?

Don't come back until you figure it out.

Come back!

-We haven't figured it out yet.

-Don't give it any more thought.

-Come back!

-Still contemplating it.

Don't bother, she's caught me!

Rake!

Up, up!

Quick, up! Quick, up!

Fine, that's enough.

You can stop now.

Master, time to show your hand.

You're so kind.

Such long legs!

-Such long legs.... I like them.

-What are you doing?

I'm a spider!

You must be kidding!

I'm just a pig.

I wasn't kidding.

Your resistance makes me stronger.

-What's that noise?

-Don't worry, it's Sandy.

Sandy, are you all right?

A bit poisoned, a bit dazed.

Seems like time for me to step in now.

Conquering demons takes sincerity.

Lead them to benevolence.

No violence necessary.

Without a knife,

a butcher can be a Buddha.

Stop!

Monkey.... You are too rude.

Save your strength

to help your brother.

Let me handle this.

Brother Monkey, be more gentle.

Don't hurt her long legs.

I've only just gotten started with her.

-Master, maybe I can talk to her first?

-Quiet.

Let go--

All done, Master.

What?

You finished her

before I had a chance!

What were you thinking?

You were in great danger.

She could have swallowed you whole.

You're lucky I strike fast.

I took her out with one blow.

How many times have I told you?

To conquer a demon, educate it.

Didn't you see the smile

on her face just now?

Smile? She smiled

at the prospect of eating you.

Outrageous!

That smile was so sincere.

My smile is even more sincere.

Guess:
Do I love you?

Or will I kill you?

Who the hell are you?

How can I help you?

Did you see that? He's so handsome.

You're almost better-looking than me.

You know that?

Of course. You can't stand it?

Of course not, how about you?

What's Baldy doing up there?

Thinking.

About what?

About Miss Duan.

I don't care who he's thinking about!

This bald fellow.... I can overlook

his propensity for violence...

...but he's started going too far.

Lying beside me,

swaying and fondling...

...asking if I miss him.

Just thinking of it...

...gives me goose bumps.

Well, that needs to stop.

Why not just kill him?

You couldn't do that, could you?

You always dance to Baldy's tune.

Just forget it.

I'll pull out his tongue...

...and tie it in a knot!

What kind of tune would he sing then?

He still knows

the Buddha's Palm technique.

I'm not scared.

If I break his arm...

...how can he use

Buddha's sodding Palm?

Master, how long

have you been standing there?

Just now.

I came to see how you're doing.

Don't worry, I heard nothing.

Master...

...how come you lost your voice?

I haven't.

Out here in the wild...

...we shouldn't disturb others

by being loud.

-Really?

-For sure.

Have I ever lied to you?

All right, you all relax.

I'll just relieve myself.

Buddha, Buddha,

my three disciples are unruly.

I have failed to teach them well.

I know 300 songs for children,

but nothing else.

I've been pretending to be capable.

How can I go on like this?

Now Monkey is plotting to kill me...

...and I've lost my singing voice.

Be merciful, Buddha.

Teach me your holy Buddha's Palm.

Your follower will be forever grateful.

I beg you, please.

Buddha, do your hear me?

Give me a sign.

Even a little fart would do.

Pigsy, how long have you been there?

Not long, I didn't see

what you were doing.

Don't worry,

I didn't hear anything either.

I've been good to you, haven't I?

You know what you should do.

What should I do?

All I can do is be myself.

What I was getting at is...
