Summary:
It is said that Tang Monk (played by Xiao Changshun) and his four disciples traveled through mountains and rivers, and after untold hardships, they went from the East to the West to seek the Great Tibetan Sutra. One day, the master and his disciples came to a dangerous place with high mountains and steep ridges. The Monkey King Sun Wukong (played by Liu Lingtong) guessed that Zhu Bajie (played by Qi Lingtong) had always been lazy and slippery, so he encouraged his master to send Bajie to find the mountain first. While the brothers were playing and fighting, they were not aware that they had already been spotted by a goblin here. The goblin lived in Boyue Cave and was a white-bone spirit who was good at changing and cunning. She knew Sun Wukong's ability, so she changed three times to deceive Elder Tang, Bajie, and Sha Seng (played by Fu Machao), and then alienated the trust between the master and his disciples, and staged the wonderful play of Sun Wukong's three fights with the white-bone spirit that has been passed down through the ages! This film is adapted from the story of "Journey to the West", one of the four great classical Chinese novels.
