Journey to the West: Demon Chapter Page #3

---

...silence is golden.

Master, all I did was break wind.

But all your threats and pressures...

...weigh on me heavily.

So that's your game.

Your master knows many butchers.

-You should watch out.

-Understood.

Monkey, what are you thinking?

-You're the one who needs to watch out.

-I'd like to experience...

...my master's holy Buddha's Palm.

What are you talking about? What palm?

You didn't get it?

Just the two of us.

I want to compare strength.

You run?

My boy, my boy

Why are you so naughty?

Bullying, cheating

Why behave that way?

Learn to behave better

Closeness, love

Be tender in your heart

Damn Baldy, enough with the singing!

Fight me!

Good child

Run. Where can you run to?

All right.

If that's what you really want,

I'll indulge you.

So it's clobbering time.

Wait, give me a moment.

I was just toying with you, Master.

Just working up a sweat.

You scared me to death.

-What on earth are you up to now?

-None of your business.

You're so handsome, you've gone bald.

Do you mean that?

I'd be a pig if I lied.

How did it go?

Did you tear Baldy to shreds?

Was his blood running everywhere?

Wait, have you really killed him?

You tricked me!

Pigsy, have you learned

what "silence is golden" means?

I just did.

Now you're poisoned, I have to pull you.

Will you please stop dousing me?

I caught a cold, my nose is runny.

Caught a cold? Bullshit!

Better take a cleaver to you and sell you in

the market. Less trouble for me that way.

Monkey, when do you think

Sandy will turn back into a man?

I have no idea.

Master, you really want to know?

Maybe...

...not.

Bi-Qiu Kingdom

The minister is here!

Hail, Your Eminence.

Master Tang is an eminent monk indeed.

His bearing is graceful.

My admiration is heartfelt.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

May I ask how Your Eminence knew

I was coming? I am flattered....

Most flattered.

Master Tang's reputation precedes him.

And your three brilliant companions...

...are also awe-inspiring.

I learned that the four of you...

...would pass by here.

The king sent me to greet you here.

Let's go to the palace.

We can chat there.

Neat trick.

It's just a trifle.

-Don't play any more tricks.

-It wasn't me. I didn't do anything.

What did I do?

Bloom.

Hey, presto.

Your Eminence, it puzzles me.

Are your magic tricks...

...intended to seem fake?

Master, we both know

that in this world...

...magic tricks are illusions.

Why care whether

they seem real or fake?

Let's go.

Cultivating oneself is different

from playing tricks.

The crucial thing...

...is what's in the heart.

Master...

...you are bottling something up.

What's on your mind?

There's someone in your heart.

You yearn for her. You can't forget her.

I'm afraid you're wrong, there's not.

Learning humanity

is like having religious faith.

Following your heart

will keep you young.

A person who can't be honest

with himself...

...is hypocritical.

That's why I cultivate myself...

...according to my heart's desires.

So what "cultivation" means to you is....

Doing what I damn well like.

Is this what pupils do

between lessons in your country?

It's a game, losers have to kneel.

The king has been taking

rejuvenation pills lately.

Now he behaves like a child.

It's as if he took my counsel

about following his heart.

The king is easily coaxed.

Simply fawn on him...

...and you'll be well rewarded.

I'll expect my cut, of course.

That's....

I'm just joking.

You didn't think I was serious?

Look, our beauties are greeting you.

Impressive, I like it!

Your Majesty,

the honorable guests are here.

I am Tang.

I am crossing your great country.

My three disciples and I are here

to pay our respects.

Hug, hug!

Splendid.

-Look, this king is sillier than our master.

-No way.

No one is sillier than our master.

Hug, hug!

Please respond in kind

to the king's high protocol.

Too late, he's too stuck-up.

Hug, hug!

Follow your heart.

I hear that you conquer demons.

It's true.

Don't believe it, show me some tricks.

I think Your Majesty is confused.

Conquering demons

is not an acrobatic trick.

You will do as I order!

You will speak as I order!

If you don't obey, you insult my dignity!

Now I'll have your head chopped off.

I'll use it as my night potty.

Great, this king gives his people

what they like.

-My kind of king.

-Men, off with his head!

Don't worry.

Really, Minister?

-It's a joke.

-I see.

It doesn't seem so.

Doesn't seem what?

Your Majesty, I have a dream.

We can perform a bit for you.

Monkey, show His Majesty a few tricks.

You ask a nobody to entertain me?

That's a deliberate insult!

Death penalty!

Don't try to talk me out of it, I'll perform.

Just give me a moment

and I'll be with you.

Get a move on!

Master, are you really going to perform?

Do I have any choice?

He can't get through.

What should we do?

No big deal,

just show them your Buddha's Palm.

It's not a parlor trick.

How about I take Master's form?

I can perform for the king.

You just want to have your way

with the maids...

...so Master will leave dozens

of children here.

Come, come.

Stick, stick, stick!

I know what.

Use the talisman of obedience.

That again? That's an old idea.

It will have to do, boss.

New ideas are thin on the ground.

Stick it on him...

...and he'll do whatever I do.

Identical movements.

Damn it, chop him up!

Out of the question. I'll be doomed

if you do a striptease again.

You don't trust me.

I don't.

I'm sincerely trying to help.

And you really don't trust me?

-I don't.

-If you find that something goes wrong...

...you can always stop me.

-You won't cheat me?

-I look like a cheat?

Have I ever cheated you?

-More times than I can remember.

-You're right.

You're no use to us, you're an a**hole.

Good.

Stop it.

What is he doing?

You want to make me lose face again?

Move.

Out of the way.

What kind of dance is that?

I specialize in striptease.

Master isn't as good as I am.

Where did he go?

-Stop!

-Don't stop.

No stopping. If you shout "stop" again,

I'll have your head.

You are joking?

Master, he's not joking. If you shout

"stop" again, you'll lose your head.

Go on, then.

Wonderful.

Great, great.

Great! Master, any more tricks

up your sleeve?

Go to hell!

Go to hell!

-Go to hell again!

-Go to hell again!

He hit me.

He hit me!

Hurry! Quick!

You must flee right away

if the king cries.

Master, I did my best to help you...

...but after what just happened,

I'm afraid that...

...your reputation...

...cannot be repaired.

Attendants.

Here's some money for expenses.

Use it on your travels.

Don't show up here again

for eight to 10 years.

How can I accept, after all that...?

Forget it. Meetings are hard...

...but partings are harder.

You and I...

...may not meet again.

Take care, Tang Tang.

The minister fancies you.

How about that, Master?

You have a good chance with her.

I envy you.

With all your piety, you can still get dates.
