Sun Wukong took his golden cudgel and chased after those monks, asking them where the cassock was. The monks all said they didn’t know. Sun Wukong thought for a while and asked: “Are there any monsters nearby?” The monks all said there was a Black Wind Monster on Black Wind Mountain. Sun Wukong frowned and said: “Take good care of my master. If anything goes wrong, watch your heads!” He said as he smashed a wall with his cudgel.
Sun Wukong somersaulted to Black Wind Mountain, landed on a cloud head, and walked into the forest. He suddenly heard someone laughing on the slope ahead. Sun Wukong hid behind a rock and peeked over. He saw three demons sitting on the ground. The one with a black face said: “Last night I was lucky enough to get a piece of Buddha’s clothing. I specially invited you two to have a Buddha’s clothing feast!”
Sun Wukong heard everything clearly, muttered: “You thieves!” And jumped out with a slap. The black-faced man was the Black Wind Monster, who turned into a gust of wind and escaped; another Taoist also ran away; only the scholar in white clothes couldn’t escape in time, and was killed by Sun Wukong with a cudgel. He revealed his true form, which was a big white flower snake.
Sun Wukong followed that gust of wind to a mountain peak, and saw a cave on the opposite cliff. There was a stone tablet in front of the cave with four big characters: “Black Wind Mountain Black Wind Cave”. Sun Wukong came to the cave entrance, knocked on the door with his cudgel, and shouted: “You scoundrel, give me back my cassock!” The little demons saw Sun Wukong’s fierce appearance, and quickly ran in to report to the Black Wind Monster.
