Features: Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing protect Tang Monk as he travels to the West to obtain the Buddhist scriptures. One day, the four of them pass by a large mountain. The sky above is so high it seems to touch the clouds. Sun Wukong worries about monsters and asks the master and his disciples to dismount and rest, while he goes to investigate first. Just as Sun Wukong leaves, a wolf demon on patrol sees the Tang Monk and his disciples and thinks, "Where are these strangers from?" He rushes back to report. It turns out the mountain is indeed special—it has a cave where a group of demons live. The cave's master, the White Bone Demon, was originally a pile of bones that later cultivated into a demon. The White Bone Demon constantly creates trouble, (specializing in harming the people). Upon hearing the report, she goes to investigate and is overjoyed at the sight, dancing for joy: "Wow, it's Tang Monk!" She had long heard that the high monk Xuanzang from the Tang Dynasty was passing through this area on his journey to the West to obtain the Buddhist scriptures. The flesh of Tang Monk is a rare delicacy in the world, and eating it can grant immortality! This is exactly what she has been dreaming of, and now it has finally come true.
