In the end, the Great Sage broke the rules.

After wandering around in the mountains for a short while, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie quickly found the monster's cave.

The two challenged each other outside the cave for a long time, but the monster hid inside like a turtle, refusing to come out.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong blew a cloud of yellow smoke towards the cave entrance, and the smoke drifted into the cave like a ghost.

Upon smelling the smoke, the monster in the cave deflated like a punctured balloon and revealed its true form on the bed.

Sun Wukong made a quick decision: "Go quickly and guard the back door. We absolutely cannot let that monster escape!"

Pigsy patted his chest and said confidently, "Don't worry, Eldest Brother! With me, Old Pig, guarding him, that monster won't be able to escape!"

While Pigsy guarded the back door, Monkey King lengthened his golden cudgel and then extended it into the cave.

The monster was in excruciating pain from being poked and could only crawl towards the back door to escape.

Suddenly, a giant python emerged from behind him, like a moving small mountain, startling Pigsy who was catching fish.

Pigsy cried out in a hoarse voice, "Elder Brother! A python! A giant python!"

Upon hearing the sound, Sun Wukong quickly ran to the back door.

"Where? Where is the python?"

Pigsy pointed ahead, saying in a panic, "It's right there! It just ran out! It scared this old pig half to death!"

Sun Wukong urged impatiently, "Then hurry up and chase after them!"

Pigsy suddenly realized: "Yes, yes, yes! Chase! Chase! Chase!"

The two brothers pursued the monster relentlessly, running wildly through the jungle, but they were unable to find its hiding place for a long time.

Pigsy was running wildly with his head down when he suddenly felt something strange under his feet. He looked down and found that his big foot had crushed the monster's snake head like Mount Tai crushing an egg.

"Ouch!"

Pigsy was so frightened that he nearly wet himself and almost lost his soul.

When the python spirit realized its scheme had been exposed, it quickly continued its escape.

Pigsy was terrified by the monster, and his anger was instantly ignited. He didn't know where he got the courage, but he leaped forward and blocked the python's path.

He was preparing to deliver a fatal blow to the python with his rake when, as soon as he raised it, the rake became as if it were attracted by a magnet and got caught on the vines of a tree branch.

Seeing an opportunity, the python immediately tried to slip away from between his legs like an eel.

Pigsy was extremely anxious. He quickly released his rake and grabbed the python's tail like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey.

Immediately afterwards, Sun Wukong witnessed a scene that was both hilarious and absurd: a snake was pulling a pig along, frantically fleeing through the forest.

At the critical moment, Sun Wukong quickly flew forward to intercept him.

In the blink of an eye, the python suddenly opened its blood-red maw and swallowed the unsuspecting and caught off guard Sun Wukong whole.

Upon seeing this, Pigsy turned pale with fright and hurriedly released his grip on the snake's tail.

His eyes widened in horror as he stared at what was happening before him, stammering, "Big...Senior Brother! Look at you! You're usually so powerful, how could you be so careless today and get eaten alive by this monster!"

However, just as Pigsy was panicking, Sun Wukong's familiar voice came clearly from inside the monster's belly: "Junior brother, don't be afraid, this Great Sage is fine!"

Upon hearing this, Pigsy's face showed a mixture of surprise and delight, but it quickly turned into a look of disgust as he muttered, "Brother, even if you're fine now, what if this monster treats you like excrement and defecates on you later? How filthy and disgusting that would be!"

After he finished speaking, he unconsciously shook his head.

At this moment, Sun Wukong, who was inside the monster's belly, had no time to pay attention to Zhu Bajie's nagging.

Hearing the monster's cries of pain, he grew even more excited and frolicked wildly inside the monster's belly.

Sun Wukong punched with his left hand and kicked with his right, making the python demon cry out in pain.

The python demon never expected that instead of killing Sun Wukong, its belly would become Sun Wukong's playground, tormenting him to the point of near death.

After a while, when Sun Wukong finally had enough fun and felt bored, he waved his arm, and the golden cudgel in his hand instantly became enormous.

Sun Wukong swung his golden cudgel with all his might, aiming straight for the python demon's belly.

With a muffled "thud," the golden cudgel easily pierced a huge hole in the python demon's body.

Having suffered such a severe blow, how could the python demon possibly survive? It died on the spot, completely perishing.

Afterwards, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie carried the dead python spirit back to the village.

The moment they stepped into the village, the once peaceful village erupted into chaos.

Upon hearing that the monster had been vanquished, the villagers were overjoyed and rushed to tell each other, eagerly gathering to see what had happened.

Everyone surrounded Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, cheering and praising their heroic deeds.
