Journey to the West Chapter 22

In the Liusha River, a monster robbed Tang Monk. Bajie and Wukong went to fight, but the monster got into the water and refused to come ashore. Wukong was not good at water fighting and could not do anything to the monster underwater, so he sent Bajie into the water to fight with it. Bajie held a nine-tooth rake and fought with the river demon three times, but he could not win.

Although Wukong has many clever tricks, he is helpless. After several battles with no results, Wukong went to Guanyin Bodhisattva for help. The Bodhisattva asked Mucha Walker to go with Wukong to subdue the monsters.

The Wood Cross Walker summons the monster Wu Jing. After inviting him to become his disciple, Wu Jing formed a Dharma boat with the skull under his neck, crossed the river with Tang Monk, and took the Western Sutra.
