Journey to the West: Making the Monkey Choose from the Start

A major event in the primordial world: Today, the Journey to the West preaching and funeral procession has arrived in the Western Heaven.

According to reliable sources, the preaching group is providing its final all-in-one service at the Great Thunderclap Temple: beating people up, preaching, and arranging funerals. Now, let's go to our latest report:

Reporter: "Great Sage, did you know the Daoist was coming to the Western Heaven to preach?"

Wukong: "I knew."

"Then what made you decide to join the group?"

"Back then, he grabbed me by the throat beneath Five Elements Mountain and told me: either come with him to the Western Heaven, or he'd send me to the Western Heaven."

Reporter: "...All right. Now let's interview the next member. Marshal Tianpeng, what made you join the preaching team?"

Bajie: "He said we'd need to bring some rations for the journey to fetch the scriptures."
