581 chapters, the old demon woman said...

In the previous chapter, the Classic of Documents said that the old demon woman in Ya Long Shan Cave heard that the great demon leader and her son, the second demon leader, from Pingdingshan Lianhuadong, had invited her to eat Tang Sanzang's flesh, and she was delighted.

Eating Tang Sanzang's flesh is a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity; who doesn't know that eating Tang Sanzang's flesh grants immortality and eternal life? Who wouldn't want to live forever, never die? In this world, the more someone is like a demon, the stronger their wish for immortality becomes. This old demon woman is the mother of demons; the demon leaders are those she raised, she is the mother of evil, and naturally she desires immortality even more.

The old demon woman, while busy ordering the little demons to prepare the sedan chair and fetch the Golden Hoop Rope, also ordered the little demons to serve tea and water, to properly attend to the two demons from Lianhuadong who had come to invite her to eat Tang Sanzang's flesh.

At the old demon woman's command, the little demons in the cave: those preparing the sedan chair prepared it, those fetching the Golden Hoop Rope fetched it, those pouring tea and water poured tea and water— a scene of busy hustle.

In the human realm, a chief's word carries weight; the same holds in the demon realm: a chief is the head of the household.

Not long after, the sedan chair was ready. From the turning point inside the cave, two female demons lifted out a sedan chair. The sedan chair the old demon woman sat in was somewhat special: its poles were made of thousand-year-old evergreen pine, its canopy of ten-thousand-year un-withering vine, its curtains of evergreen leaves, and its screen of night-blooming jasmine petals.

The little demons carried the prepared sedan chair before the old demon woman; she rose and left the cave, and the little demons helped her onto the chair. Seeing the old demon woman seated, the little demons in the cave shouted, 'Lift the chair!'

Then many little demons followed suit, shouting, 'Lift the chair!'

The four little demons carrying the sedan chair lifted it and headed toward the slope!

Many little demons followed before and behind the sedan chair; the old demon woman hastily waved her hand at them, saying, 'You all, quickly return to the cave and prepare the mountain gate. Guard against Tang Sanzang's great disciple, the helpless Sun Wukong, coming to raid the cave.'

Those little demons replied in unison, 'Yes, sir!' and returned to the cave.

The old demon woman also said to the two little demons who followed her left and right, transformed from Sun Wukong's monkey hairs: 'You two brats, you came to invite me to Lianhuadong to eat Tang Sanzang's flesh, and it's been a while, yet I still don't know your names. Could you tell me, Grandma?'

Sun Wukong said, 'Thank you, Grandma! I am Ba Shan Hu, he is Fu Hai Long. We are both squad leaders of Lianhuashan. We have not yet entered the leadership ranks. Please, Grandma, say a few kind words for us before the great demon leader and the second demon leader, and promote us.'

'It's a small matter; as long as I speak, you'll soon be promoted to third or fourth in command. However, in handling affairs, mere idle talk won't get things done. You also need to send some gifts and red envelopes to show your respect to me!' the old demon woman reminded the two little demons seeking office.
