    $this->handle_bbcode_img_match('http://tvcity.tvb.com/drama/monkey_king/story/img/288/13288M.jpg')
    You little demon want to fight with me Iron Fan? Go and study for another 36000 years!!

    As the Iron Fan Princess is teaching the skill of the Banana Leaf fan to some demon students, a female demon approaches accusing Iron Fan of seducing her man, but with one sweep of the fan which she has retrieved from her stomach, the demon’s clothes have been blown from her body. Red Boy wants to use the Demon Friend Making Pillow to meet some beautiful girls, but he can’t get to sleep. Iron Fan accuses the Ox King of spending all his time in the brothel and he says that she is always obsessed with her dancing, Red Boy is fed up and leaves a note before running away, but there are many mistakes in the note. Ox Demon falls asleep on Red Boy’s pillow and enters the world of the Demon Friends where he falls for Little Jade and he takes the form of Red Boy to go and meet her. Iron Fan goes to the schoolhouse to look for Red Boy and finds out that he has not been to school for several months and also that he has beaten the teachers and his schoolmates and she is hurt by this. When Jade sees Ox Demon as Red Boy, she says he has no security because he is too young so the Ox Demon returns to his real self. Iron fan tearfully clutches Red Boy’s pillow and falls asleep, she is shocked to find that Ox Demon has gone looking for girls, angrily heading for Jade’s house and with a wave of her fan, she blows the two out. Red Boy finds that not only has the Snake Demon not been able to eat the flesh of the Tang monk and has also been injured and is not impressed, he thinks that they are all just appearance and of no use, so he has a wager with Snake Demon as to who will be the first to eat the flesh of Tang. They lie in wait for Tang and his disciples to arrive before beating Piggy to the ground, Monkey appears and fights with him and eventually Red Boy is defeated, Monkey admires his honour and lets him go. Red Boy leaves resentfully and coincidentally meets Orchid in the forest, he is smitten by her and asks the Snake Demon about what love is. Orchid finds all sorts of bananas for Monkey, but Monkey says he has to give up eating bananas, Orchid leaves angrily. Red Boy follows Orchid to find out her name and is overjoyed. Iron Fan is troubled by both Ox Demon and Red Boy and at this time, White Bone arrives to comfort her.

    $this->handle_bbcode_img_match('http://tvcity.tvb.com/drama/monkey_king/story/img/288/17288M.jpg')
    It is just a snake demon, doesn't need me to go. Anyway I wouldn't leave Master alone - can't depend on you!

    The Snake Demon knows that Red Boy has fallen in love with Orchid and hatches a plan, saying that she will divert the attentions of Monkey and the others to create an opportunity for Red to display his affections for Orchid, Red is pleased to hear this. Snake turns into an old granny to attract the attentions of the disciples, but Monkey says this is easy stuff and lets Piggy and Sandy carry on with the chase. At this time, Ox Demon comes looking for his son and Monkey is pleased to meet with his adopted brother once again. Red takes the chance whilst Monkey is away and tells Orchid of his love for her, Orchid is taken aback, but says he is too young and that she already has someone in her heart, praising Monkey for being a supernatural monkey, Red angrily leaves. Orchid turns to look at Tang and finds that he has disappeared, she is horrified. Tang has been captured by Red and Snake. Tang tries to persuade them to turn back on their wrongs, but Red points out that no-one will understand him. Monkey arrives on his search and lays on a bet with Red Boy, the two will have a race to ride the Fire Wheels to the moon and the first to return with a leave from the Kwai tree will be the winner, if Monkey loses then they can eat Tang flesh, Snake takes the opportunity to hold Tang hostage, wanting to swallow him. Monkey wants to kill her again, but Tang once again pleads for him to let her go. Red Boy loses with grace and admits Monkey as his master. The Holy Mother of Wah San suddenly appears, telling Iron Fan that Guanyin has agreed to look after Red and when the time is right he will be taken away. Iron Fan then receives the news that Red has been captured by Monkey and when Ox Demon hears this, he is very angry. When Monkey and Orchid are flirting, White Bone suddenly appears and flutters her eyes at Monkey. She thinks she has already enraptured Monkey and tells him to slap Orchid, Monkey raises his hand as instructed, but instead hits White Bone on the face, White Bone is devastated. Monkey asks her if she has been overcome by a curse but White Bone leaves very distressed. White Bone is bears a grudge and uses magic to seduce both Piggy and Sandy to aid with her capture of Tang. Luckily Monkey arrives just in time, injuring White Bone in the process, she leaves with even more hatred.

    Episode 17 - Two Monkeys?

    $this->handle_bbcode_img_match('http://tvcity.tvb.com/drama/monkey_king/story/img/289/01289M.jpg')
    This Golden Staff will have to temporarily be called Lightning Rod

    Ox Demon thinks that Monkey has captured Red Boy and wants to capture Tang to exchange for his son, Orchid uses the Purple Orchid Cloak to protect them all and Ox Demon turns into a Buffalo to break down the shield. In the meantime, Monkey finally reaches the bottom of the cliff and pulls out the Fruit of Love before climbing back up, on the way he is continually being bombarded with thunder and lightning, with his powers lost, Monkey can only use his staff as a lightning conductor. Monkey finally reaches the top of the cliff and regains his energy and magic, the first thing he does is go and find the god of lightning to scold him, he is surprised to see White Bone and realises that this was her doing, once again he raises his fist to her. Ox Demon breaks through the protective cloak, but luckily Monkey returns just in time and points out that Red Boy is in training in the Heavenly Palace, Ox doesn’t believe him. White Bone remembers the times she spent with Monkey and is very upset, the Great Demon suddenly appears and tells her to give him her spirit and he will help her to regain her Monkey. After Monkey forces Piggy and Sandy to eat the Fruit of Love, he is shocked to find that a second Monkey has appeared by Tang’s side and they are all unable to distinguish between the two, but luckily Orchid thinks of an idea to tell between the two. It turns out that this is the Six-Eared Monkey who also wants to go with Tang to seek the scriptures in the West. Monkey is unwilling and has a contest with Six-Ears to see who can capture the most demons, with the loser going away. It turns out that Monkey’s demons are less than those of Six-Ears and he takes Orchid back to the Fruit and Flower Mountain. The Jade Emperor realises that Orchid has sneaked down to the earth and orders Yee Long San and his soldiers to go and bring her back. When he arrives at Fruit and Flower Mountain, Orchid is nowhere to be seen so he uses his third eye to search for her; on the other hand, Little Bowl takes Orchid to escape from the Heavenly Soldiers and they arrive at a cliff edge, Orchid jumps to her death down the cliff…
    Six-Ears and the demons suddenly turn on Tang and capture him and his disciples and they realises this was all a plan to eat Tang flesh. Iron Fan and Ox Demon ask their adopted brother Fire Winged Priest to help rescue Red Boy, Fire Wing agrees immediately. Monkey sees in the Three Life Mirror that Tang is in trouble and rushes to help.

    Episode 18 - Jade Emperor wants to split the lovers

    $this->handle_bbcode_img_match('http://tvcity.tvb.com/drama/monkey_king/story/img/289/05289M.jpg')
    Your Majesty - apart from the Empress I have never knelt before anyone. Please let Purple Orchid free this time!

    Six-Ears decides to cook Tang to eat, Tang says that crises are planned by fate and only begs that Six-Ears frees his two disciples, Snake Demon is touched by this and comes to a decision. Six-Ears pushes Tang into a pot of hot water then realises something is wrong, he then plucks out Tang and the Ice Dragon from the pot. Six-Ears defeats Ice Dragon and turns for Snake Demon, she is no match for him and dies, Tang and his disciples realise that they have misjudged Snake. On his way to rescue Tang, Monkey realises that Orchid has gone missing. He changes one of his hairs into Iron Fan to drag out the process while he goes to rescue Orchid first. Monkey requests that Jade Emperor lets Orchid go, otherwise he will not continue his journey to the West, also he says that his love with Orchid has been laid in his fate and cannot be prevented. The Jade Emperor returns Orchid her freedom, but forces her to wear the “Clear as Ice Cloak” which prevents her from touching her loved one, he also lends Monkey the Nine-turn Windmill to fight against the Iron Fan. Red Boy agrees to pretend to be a hostage to be exchanged for Tang and his companions. Iron Fan and Ox Demon are pleased to see their son, but Six-Ears says that is not their son, Iron fan believes him and Monkey uses the windmill to blow them all away. Six-Ears returns to fight with Monkey but finally succumbs to him, Monkey says that to fight evil is better than to fight good and that if Six-Ears sheds a tear of regret then all his sins would be cleansed and he would let him go. Monkey, Piggy and Sandy overcome their differences and one of the three golden hairs falls off Monkey’s body, Tang explains that the three hairs signify three different stages: without love, with love and forgetting love, Monkey has passed the stage of no love and has found both masterly love, brotherly love and friendship. As soon as Red Boy returns home, he is tied up by Iron Fan who takes him to the Burning Fire Mountain to be used as bait. They do not know that Fire Wing wants to use the Five Element Demonic Flame to burn Red Boy until he spits out his internal energy to combine with the flame and help him to escape from the Heavenly Locks of Buddha.

    hey, i got it,

    i think this version of journey to the west is like the same as "the chinese Oddesey pandora." well, the title are somewhat familiar to that. yea, the story is journey to the west too, but it's a short movie, and 2 hours long.. anf there's part two too. and yea, the money was Stephen Chow. Chau Tinh Tri. he fell in love too,but he can't cause everything he thinks of it, the iron on his head got tighter. something like that. but it's cool if the money did fell in love... cause it's like a revolution.. haha.

    I share some of Dan's view on that. JTTW, despite what audience might believe, was one of the four greatest classical literature of all time equal to romance of three kingdoms and water margin.

    I think the story itself opened a lot for the maker to add in plot and change things around since it is story of supernatural.
    and that is all right for adaptation as long as it is done in good taste.

    however, the original theme should be kept and that was about the quest for redemption - the search of buddhism script.

    I have recently watched mainland's feng shen bang and it was made to be funny too but the main plot was kept and literature sense was still there.

    it is sad to see the later generations know about jttw by Dicky Cheung's monkey standard.

    for them, jttw is just one funny series.

    Admittedly, I do like some of the bits of this series *tries to hide from the tomatoes* Joke, but I guess it's because of the little love stories cos in all honesty, I love those kind of stories. But yeah, I do think some parts are stupid,e specially the beginning.

    And is that all that happens to Chi Mei and Na Ja? They just forget each other and that's it? <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0">

    Episode 19 - Na Ja kills his father for the sake of White Bone

    $this->handle_bbcode_img_match('http://tvcity.tvb.com/drama/monkey_king/story/img/289/09289M.jpg')
    I am the Fire Wing Priest and I am a close disciple of the Great Demon - how do you expect to defeat me Monkey?

    Monkey carries the barely alive body of Red Boy from the Fiery Mountain and Iron Fan and Ox Demon mistake Monkey for being responsible for this, just as they are about to seek revenge, Red says that this was the doing of Fire Wing. At this time, Fire Wing appears and wounds Ox Demon and his wife, even Monkey is no match for him, Monkey suggests that he joins forces with Na Ja to become “Super Monkey” to overcome him, but he still manages to escape. As Red dies, he requests that his parents make up, they tearfully agree and Red smiles as he passes away. Guanyin appears and allows Red to reincarnate, commanding Na Ja to take him to the Three Star Temple to study and practise. As he leaves, Red sheds tears which reduce the fiery mountain to a lush green plain. On his way back to the heavenly palace, Na Ja meets White Bone, she overcomes him with her magic and takes her back to his home. When the two arrive at the Lee family home, White Bone steers away Na Ja and complains to Lee Ching that she has been brought back by Na Ja against her will, she also uses magic against him and Lee Ching teaches her how to use his Pagoda. When Lee Ching sees Na Ja’s return, he instantly scolds him and White Bone claims that Lee Ching has been molesting her, making Na Ja very angry and he beats Lee Ching until he is spitting blood. Na Ja thinks he has killed his father and feels very guilty, at this time, the Great Demon’s voice can be heard, counting all of Lee Ching’s faults and Na Ja gradually feels that has done no wrong. The Heavenly Palace is attacked by an unidentified object and chaos ensues, the Jade Emperor desperately calls upon Buddha and Guanyin to discuss their plans. Piggy is unfortunate to see the Black Whirlwind and is struck by a demonic air, Monkey doesn’t notice this. The foursome arrive at a forest and is invited back to Fat Wah Temple to stay for the night by a friendly scholar, Monkey is suspicious and checks all around and finds out from a scar-faced priest that there are Fox Demons in the vicinity who use scholars to trick travellers to the Temple so that they can absorb their spirits. When the scholar asks for money in return from the Elder Fox Demon, their spirit is instantly absorbed and servant girl So So is sent to the temple to seduce Tang and the others.
