Summary:

Adapted from “Journey to the West”. Tang Monk and his disciples traveled to the Flame Mountain, and they had to borrow a plantain fan from Princess Iron Fan to put out the fire. Wukong heard about it and road his clouds to it. Because Princess Iron Fan is angry with Wukong about asking the Bodhisattva Guanyin to accept Red Boy as a disciple, so that mother and child cannot see each other, she deliberately refuses to lend him the fan. Wukong tried his best but only got back a fake fan. Wukong pretends to be the Bull Demon King to trick her into getting the fan, but he is robbed by the Bull Demon King on the way. Finally, with the help of four Heavenly Kings, Li Tianwang, and Nezha, the Bull King was finally subdued. Princess Iron Fan begged for her husband’s life and hurriedly offered her precious fan. Fan out the flames, and the master and apprentice can move forward.
