00:00Journey to the West, Chapter 63, A Question for Buddha.
00:12The Tang Monk jumped to his feet as the villagers hid behind trees.
00:17Wukong, Wu Jing, and Ba Jae pulled out their weapons.
00:21A large shell rose from the water.
00:24It's a giant turtle, said Ba Jae.
00:27The turtle bowed its head toward Wukong.
00:31That demon had taken over my house and river.
00:35Thank you for getting rid of him.
00:38The turtle then looked at the villagers.
00:41You don't need to make a boat.
00:43I can take the travelers across the river.
00:47That's wonderful, said the Tang Monk.
00:50I'm from the Tang Empire and...
00:52I know who you are, interrupted the turtle.
00:55You're traveling to the Western Paradise to get scriptures from Buddha.
01:01I knew you would cross my river eventually.
01:04Climb onto my shell.
01:07Wukong eyed the turtle suspiciously.
01:10How do we know we can trust you?
01:13Demons all along the way are waiting for my master to pass by.
01:17They all want to eat him, added Ba Jae.
01:21I promise I won't hurt the Tang Monk, said the turtle.
01:26I want to help him reach the Western Paradise.
01:33After a little more hesitation, the travelers stepped onto the turtle's shell.
01:38The turtle began to paddle.
01:42The villagers came out from behind the trees and waved.
01:47Goodbye, called a woman.
01:49Please visit us on your way home, shouted someone else.
01:54We will, I promise, called the monk.
01:57Soon the turtle was far from shore.
02:01Ba Jae fell asleep.
02:02The turtle glanced back at the Tang Monk.
02:06Excuse me, but can you do me a favor?
02:10Of course, said the monk.
02:12What do you need me to do?
02:15I have been a good Buddhist for over a thousand years, said the turtle.
02:20But sadly, I'm still just a turtle.
02:23Can you ask Buddha when I will be reborn as a human?
02:27The Tang Monk nodded.
02:28I will ask him.
02:29A few hours later, the turtle reached the other side of the river.
02:35The traveler stepped onto dry land.
02:40Thank you, said the Tang Monk.
02:43You're welcome, said the turtle.
02:45Please don't forget to ask Buddha about me.
02:49The turtle disappeared under the water.
02:53The Tang Monk climbed onto the horse, and the group continued on the road.
02:59As usual, Ba Jae soon started complaining.
03:04I'm tired of walking already.
03:06I wish we could ride that turtle the whole way to the west.
03:10Stop complaining, said Wukong.
03:14Be happy that the road is flat here.
03:16They walked for another couple of hours.
03:21The road started to go up a mountain, getting steeper and steeper.
03:26The pig moaned.
03:27Wow.
03:28The road isn't flat anymore.
03:31A cold wind whipped past them.
03:35Wu Jing shivered.
03:37Look, said the Tang Monk, pointing.
03:40Higher up the mountain was a large monastery.
03:44Maybe we can rest there.
03:47Wukong looked at the monastery.
03:49A dark mist hung over it.
03:53The monkey shook his head.
03:56That's a bad place.
03:57We're not going there.
03:59It looks fine to me, said the monk.
04:02I can see things that humans can't see, said Wukong.
04:06And I see a dark mist hanging over that monastery.
04:09A demon could be in there.
04:11There was a sudden growling sound.
04:15Wukong looked around to see what had caused it.
04:18Baje patted his stomach.
04:20Sorry, I'm a bit hungry.
04:24We're all tired and hungry, said the Tang Monk.
04:27We should just go to that monastery.
04:30No, said Wukong sharply.
04:33Stay here.
04:33I will find food for us.
04:35He looked at the monk and warned him again.
04:37Do not go to that monastery.
04:41Do not go to that monastery.
