Summary:

Synopsis: (Continued from Part 1 马骝精出世 The Birth of a Stone Monkey 1962) Zhu Bajie strays into the Pansi Cave by mistake and is captured by the Spider Spirit, and Tang Seng is also taken into captivity. The Spider Spirit forces Tang Seng to marry her, but Tang Seng insists on refusing to risk being killed. Fortunately, Sun Wukong arrived in time to kill the Spider Spirit. The four, master and apprentices, went to the Flame Mountain, but they couldn’t move forward because of the fierce fire, so they asked Princess Iron Fan to borrow a plantain fan to put out the fire, but the Princess refused. Wukong plans to transform into the princess’s husband Bull Demon King to deceive the treasure fan, but unexpectedly the Demon King pretends to be Wukong and takes back the treasure fan. Wukong turned into a flying insect and sneaked into the princess’ belly to make trouble, forcing her to go to the Flame Mountain with her precious fan to put out the fire. The four, master and apprentices, can finally continue on the road to the west to learn scriptures.
