"New Journey to the West" continues the story of "Journey to the West" after learning the scriptures, focusing on the new adventures of the four masters and disciples who have become Buddhas and the newly born stone monkey "Shi Er" from the East China Sea.
In Chang'an City, Sun Wukong noticed something strange in the East China Sea, and went with Tang Seng, Bajie, and Sha Seng, and met Shi Er, who had the same origin as him. Unexpectedly, the old Taoist of Zhongnan Mountain (actually transformed by the wolf demon) set up a trap to provoke the monster from Black Wind Mountain, and even involved the "Pursuant Cult" who specializes in gathering resentment.
From the confrontation in the East China Sea Dragon Palace to the black air mystery in Black Wind Mountain, everyone discovered that Shi Er and Wukong were both "spiritual sources" and were the coveted targets of the Faceless Buddha, the leader of the Rebirth Cult. They set up an ambush to break the situation, chased to the Western Liang Women's Kingdom to search for clues, and finally fought a decisive battle with the Faceless Buddha at the Bone Temple of Duanhunya, defeating the evil spirit with wisdom and courage.
The story retains the atmosphere and fireworks of the original work, and the characters remain vivid: Wukong is a clever protector, Bajie is greedy and funny, Sha Monk is steady and reliable, and Shi Er is naughty and growing up. The plot is ups and downs but relaxed. It continues the master-disciple friendship and the legend of demon subduing in the slapstick, adding a new chapter to the classic.
