he wind stopped. Wukong jumped to his
feet and called back the little Wukongs.
“Ugh,” moaned Bajie. “I need a nap.”
“Get up!” yelled the monkey. “We have to save the Tang Monk before the demon king eats him!”
Bajie rubbed his head. “How can we save him? That wind was too powerful.”
Wukong tapped his chin and thought. “I’ll
T sneak into the cave to see what I can find
out.”
The monkey changed into a mosquito and
squeezed through a crack in the cave’s door.
Deep in the cave, he heard someone
crying. “That’s the Tang Monk,” thought
Wukong.
The monkey found his master tied up in a
dark room.
“Master!” cried Wukong. He landed on the monk’s shoulder.
“Wukong?” asked the Tang Monk, looking around. “Where are you?”
“I’m on your shoulder,” said Wukong. “I
turned myself into a mosquito.”
“You must save me,” said the Tang Monk. He started to cry again.
“Stop crying,” said Wukong. “You’ll be
free soon. First I must defeat the demon king. I’ll be back!”
Wukong flew down a tunnel and arrived in the throne room. Yellow Wind was talking to some other demons.
“Your wind magic blew Sun Wukong away,” said one demon.
Ye l l o w  Wi n d  l a u g h e d. “O n l y  t h e bodhisattva Lingji can stop my wind magic.
Start a fire. We’re having a feast tonight!”
“A h a

The monkey leaped onto a cloud and raced through the sky. When he arrived on Mount Sumeru, Lingji came out of his pagoda.
“It’s nice to see you, Wukong,” said Lingji. “Would you like some tea?”
“No, thank you,” said Wukong. “I have an emergency!”
H e q u i c k l y t o l d t h e b o d h i s a t t v a everything that had happened.
“I tried to fight the demon,” said the monkey. “But then he used powerful wind magic.”
“I know who the great king Yellow Wind
is,” said Lingji. “He’s a weasel spirit. Buddha asked me to keep an eye on him. I told the spirit he could live on that mountain if he behaved.” Lingji shook his head. “I guess he’s not behaving anymore.”
“Can you help me?” asked Wukong. “They’re going to eat the Tang Monk tonight!”
“Of course,” said Lingji. He picked up
a staff and put a small object into his robe. “Let’s go.”
Soon they were in the sky, looking down at the cave door.
介绍“Knock on the door,” said Lingji. “Tell the demon to come out. I’ll do the rest.”Wukong went down to the cave door and took out his iron bar. Smash! The door turned into a pile of rubble.
