Many people, me included, was confused about what's relationship between BaJie and the Violet Spider ( Spider Mother ), and what's going on in the anime starts at 30:24. I found one explanation that make the most sense, and like to share it here. - 30:30 Before BaJie became a Pig Monster, he was a general in Celestial Court. - 30:38 BaJie always fancied the Moon Goddess. - 30:52 BaJie ran into a maid in Celestial Court. - 31:04 The maid fell for BaJie, Bajie had some feeling for her, but still chasing the Moon Goddess. - 31:15 By following Moon Goddess, Bajie found out Moon Goddess is having an affair with the Celestial Emperor - 31:20 The Celestial Emperor condemns BaJie, and cast him into mortal realm, and BaJie became a Pig Monster in the process. The maid also heart broken. - 31:32 Wake up in mortal realm , BaJie meet Gao ( a character from the Novel ), Gao looks like the Moon Goddess, so BaJie fell for her immediately. - 32:09 Only BaJie found out he is a pig now, and Gao rejected him. - 32:25 Now fast forward to the event depicted in the Novel, BaJie join the group to retrieve the Scared Scroll. On their journey, they faced the Spider Yaoguai ( Spider Monsters ). Spider Yaoguai were beautiful women when in human shape, and they were bathing in lake. Letting his lust got better of him, BaJie transformed into a fish and approach them. - 32:51 Unknown to BaJie, one of the Spiders, the Violet Spider, is the maid from the Court She and BaJie recognised each other. Still have feelings to each other, they made out that night - 33:30 Turns out she pleaded to Emperor for BaJie, which angered the Emperor, and condemned her into a mortal realm and became a spider. - 33:52 After the night, the group wiped out the Spiders, as they are obligated to kill all monster they meet on their journey. BaJie spared the Violet Spider. The after is what happened in the game, Violet Spider hinted she beared Bajie's children ( the little golden spider ) , and although she hated BaJie and Wukong for killing her Spider sisters, she was always waiting BaJie's return to marry her. Bajie never recognised the little golden spider to be his, or he has any feeling for Violet Spider. Not because he is heartless, but because if he does, the Celestial Court will make sure they wipe out the Spiders. The difference between BaJie and Violet Spider is that BaJie is a general, although being condemned, he is still count as a member of the Celestial Court, but Violet Spider was a low-level maid, when condemned, she became a YaoGuai. And Celestial Court will wipe out any ties with YaoGuai. And Violet Spider understood BaJie. “Love is never about forgiving or getting even, it is never a fair game, it's about two souls woven together by fate.” Wise and benevolent words from YaoGuai / Monsters. Quite a story really. UPDATE: Thanks to @weidongdai8532 and @ichenhong's input, there is some mistakes and info missing in the original version I posted. This story makes more sense after correction. The correction are as following: - 31:20 The Celestial Emperor condemns BaJie, and cast him into mortal realm, and BaJie became a Pig Monster in the process. The maid also heart broken. It is during BaiJie's descent, he realised he only admire Moon Goddess for her beauty, but the Maid is the one he has true feeling towards. - 31:32 Wake up in mortal realm , BaJie meet Gao ( a character from the Novel ), Gao looks like the Maid (IMPORTANT CORRECTION, Gao looks Maid, not Moon Goddess), so BaJie fell for her immediately. - 32:09 Only BaJie found out he is a pig now, and Gao rejected him, and BaJie is ashamed of himself - 32:25 Now fast forward to the event depicted in the Novel, BaJie join the group to retrieve the Scared Scroll. On their journey, they faced the Spider Yaoguai ( Spider Monsters ). Spider Yaoguai were beautiful women when in human shape, and they were bathing in lake. BaiJie found out the Violet Spider is the Maid, and he is ashamed that he is a pig, so he approach the Violet Spider as a fish. - 32:51 The Violet Spider recognised the fish is BaJie as well. BaJie then showed her his big form, Violoet Spider accepted BaJie, and showed he her Spider form. They showed each other their ugly side, yet still fully accept each other. They made out that night. - 33:30 Turn out after heard BaJie's banish to mortal realm, the Maid wanted to follow him, she asked "what did BaJie became ?", and was answered "became a pig". In Chinese "a pig" has same pronunciation as "spider", so Maid think BaJie became spider, and she choose her banishment and became a spider. ( Now this hits me hard .... 😢) One more correction: "The difference between BaJie and Violet Spider is that BaJie is a general, although being condemned, he is still count as a member of the Celestial Court, but Violet Spider was a low-level maid, when condemned, she became a YaoGuai. " This is not entirely right. More correct explanation is : BaJie, when joined the Protagonist Group to retrieve the Scroll, became re-listed as a member of Celestial Court, but Maid / Violet Spider is considered as abandoned her immortality and became a YaoGuai / Monster. Thanks for reading the long post.
Your analyse make sense and explain the story quite well, maybe we would understood more of what's going on if we could understood the song. Look like the jade emperor, if that's him, is a ass
I feel like no matter the place, be it Chinese Literature or the Illiad/Odyssey, Gods always like to toy with the lives of those who they see as lesser than them. The Spider Sisters are no exception, much like the countless victims of Zeus.
@@BrahmaDBA That's because you think the gods should be paragons of virtues. The ancient pagans didn't see them like that, to them, gods are the embodiment of reality, of its bright and darker sides. You can't have one without the other.
The Jade Emperor seems to be the source of all the trouble faced by the characters in this story. He had an affair, he condemned his sister, he slaughtered those living below him. Wukong was not wrong when he invaded the palace for the sin of them being assholes, in my opinion.
He’s a lot like the other father gods of other myths like Odin or Zeus Seems to matter the people, the highest among all tend to do completely evil things to those deemed beneath them
@@Sizdothyx Actually, no, Buddha has no authority over the Jade Emperor. More powerful, yes, but can't tell Jade Emperor to do or not to do anything, some kind of cosmic law or karma,... it's complicated. So when Wukong was wrecking Heaven and no one can catch him. Jade Emperor had to ASK Buddha for help, otherwise he wouldn't interfere.
journey to the west is written to criticize the corrupt government and how the emperor turn blind eyes of those misdeed at that time with Buddhism as camouflage, so celestial court (gods/goddess) symbolize the corrupt government and yaoguai/monster symbolize the people, so it depicted in the story most of the celestial court (government official) are an ass that using their power to push around those beneath them and yaoguai (ordinary people) like a chess piece
That spider sister who had been having all along the way, used to have a some kind of special relationship with Wukong. At 9:06, in the Chinese version she called us “smelly monkey”, instead of “tell me”. Smelly monkey is actually an intimate nickname in Chinese. She’s helping us because she loves wukong.
Not Wukong but one of the reincarnated versions of the Destined One. It seems one version actually accepted marriage with the 4th sister, which was implied by her hairstyle, her dowry( 4 chests for you), and her clothing style( matches perfectly the status of a married woman in Chinese tradition).
@@bin5phut334damn really ? I didn't even recognize that hint So there was one reincarnate that actually agree to marry the 4th sister ? Can you explain more please 😢
@@gipsyavenger3969 In Chinese culture, married women tend to have their hair tied in a bun and wear simple clothing( as indicated by the outlook of the 4th sister and her mother who was married to Bai Zhe), all the other sisters let their hair untied and wear delicate clothes as traditional ladies of a noble family as they are unmarried. Another thing to note is when the Destined one meets the 4th sister for the first time, the head lanterns keeps shouting " Big day", but that was " happy event" - Daxi in Chinese translation, a phrase used to congratulate marriage in Chinese. The four chest - treasures that she told you about also indicated she was fully aware of our next destination - the Flaming mountain, as there are anti-fire items and in Chinese traditional marriage, the girl's house will prepare gifts for the man in the form of chests containing gold and silverwares or clothing, this is known as dowry. This could possibly mean that a previous version of the Destined One engaged with the 4th sister during his journey and intended to return for her after resurrecting Wukong, but received bad ending and the samsara of being trapped by the headband repeated for him. We is the next reincarnated version with no memory of that previous life, but the 4th sister remembers very well and supports us along the way. To be fair, the English translation also missed out a lot of Chinese terms that show love and affection in the 4th sister's words towards the Destined One.
@@gipsyavenger3969 by scallionparsley (reedit) "I like to shed some light on the interaction between the Destined One and the Fourth Sister NPC character, which I thought was a masterful stroke of storytelling by Game Science. It's an entirely missable, implicit yet heartbreaking story that could easily lead into a DLC. Firstly, there's no JTTW precedent to these 2 characters. The Destined One is not Wukong, and in JTTW, 6 out of 7 spider demons were killed, the surviving one being the old lady in Chapter 3. The rest has reincarnated. There will always be 7 spiders, including the little girl. So we know the Fourth Sister is a friendly. She saves the player thrice : when he leapt into the spider cave and got stuck in a huge web, she taking down the hand-for-a-tail boss and using it as a bridge, and finally webbing him out of the cave when it gets overrun by the hordes of little golden spiders. But as clues laid all over Chapter 3 indicates, the Fourth Sister is more then a friendly. Very likely, she is the Destined One's love interest. Before I go on any further, I have been playing the game in Chinese dub, so I am unsure how it is worded in English, so my interpretation comes from the original Chinese dub. It has been indicated repeatedly by bosses and chaff mobs since Chapter 1 that our monkey character is not the first to visit. It is also vaguely hinted that the Destined One is the latest in a long line of reincarnations, with the latest being the most successful one. When you passed the second shrine across a bridge once inside the Spider Cave, there will be a cutscene when 2 lanterns began screaming "大喜！大喜！“ or "Da Xi" which meant great happiness. The girl then throws a dagger and shuts up the lanterns. It's confusing, but then this scene repeats later when Pigsy is being led into a courtyard with all the sisters in it. There's another set of lanterns screaming the same thing "Da Xi!" when Pigsy approaches the courtyard. So we understood Pigsy is supposed to wed the old lady, so the lanterns recognised the groom. Right, in the English dub they were screaming "Big Day!" This hints that the Destined One has a similar status, that of a groom. 3. Same scene, the girl told the Destined One that there's some goodies beyond the gate and told him to help himself to it. Did you expect an ambush? Heck I know I did. But not only was there not an ambush, there were 5 genuine lootboxes, filled with good stuff. I was able to craft the entire set of armor with what I found in there. So, free loot without a boss ambush, and theres more loot here then anywhere in the game, all in the same place at once. That means the loot was meant for you. That was Fourth Sister's dowry, in marriage to the Destined One. But in the character's latest incarnation, he was unable to recognise the girl, but the girl, and the lanterns, recognised him. She has just decided to give it to the Destined One. 4. When she webbed the Buddha's Right Hand boss, as she turned away, she called the Destined One, "臭猴子“ (Chou Hou Zi), or smelly monkey, and ask him about the world outside. In the English dub, she only called him "monkey". In Chinese culture, adding the word stupid, of course with appropriate intonation and context, is actually a phrase of endearment. Not a strong case, but again, a subtle hint. 5. During the initial phase of the Purple Talisman side quest, she told the monkey to mind his own business. You could see from the cutscene that she did try to rip off the talisman, but hurt herself. She told the Destined One to walk away because she knew about his primary objective in Chapter 3, and it was not to free her. The purple talismans were placed there by the Celestial Court to keep the spiders there for their own nefarious purpose ( seems the spiders were toiling away for the Court, or something, Crane mentioned some business dealings ), so meddling with the talismans would make the monkey a target for the Celestials, and getting him hurt. 6. Her hairstyle was a dead giveaway. Notice all the other spider sisters had their hair down, but she alone has it all bunned up. In ancient China, this was a common practise as women have their hair all bunned up to signify their change in marital status. As you approach the final talisman in the courtyard next to the final boss fight, she screams "快走!" (Kuai Zou), or "RUN!" In the Chinese dub, that scream hurts. Kudos to the VA, you could hear crying and desperation just in that 2 words. She didn't ask for help, or rescue, but to someone who didn't recognise her as his bride, she just wanted the Destined One to be safe from the Celestials. As the fight with General Jerkoff concludes, the Crane Immortal appears and mentions that not only are you meddling with Celestial Court's business, you also hooked up with an arrogant girl. In direct translation from the Chinese dub, he said "Be rest assured, I will carefully turn her into a pill, and keep it for you. If you still want to create trouble in your next life, remember to come up and claim it." Game Science, I need that DLC when the Monkey trashes the Celestial Court again."
@@gipsyavenger3969they are lover before my friend. And DLc will be monkey fight the whole god group to get her back . Shut up and take my money . dLC I will buy just give me her back !
That's their fate. Those power-holder in the heaven use spiders'(yaoguais') lives to make a special medicine (to prolong life). This is so unfair. So the fourth sister found this dirty business. She wanted to break the spell that sealed them, and free themselves. That explains why she helped wukong. On the one hand, to let wukong help her break the spell (she can't break it by herself), on the other hand, she saw the same spirit from wukong: breaking fk fate, to be yourself.
Your point of view is 99% correct. There is only one mistake. Crane Immortal did not use spiders to make elixirs, but because she wanted to tear off the spell that fastened their departure. This behavior angered the heavens. In fact, her purpose was very simple, just to Go see the outside world, she is a woman with an adventurous spirit
No different from living humans experiments the fork up kind of shit that cross the boundary of morality .that's what anger me when they kidnap the 4th sister.
@@personperson1254 i hope so cuz the 4th spider sister story is clearly not done yet and i kinda ship her and wukong so i hope it happen sometime later.
Which clue shown that she was captured. I am curious why after the cutscene which spider sisters and her mother, she just disappeared , and did not join the final battle against centipede I like her characteristic and bewitching 😂😂
Okay...we need another Chinese Wuxia game A Legend of White Snake is a great alternative, who dont want to play as beautiful heroine like madame Bai Su Zhen? 😊
To translate the song at the end, the final line is: "In the next life, Male: I wish I had never met you 请别再回眸, Female: Please remember to meet me.请记得回眸" But regardless, this is the most beautiful song and amine I've seen in years. Bajie (pig), once a god and a general in the Heavenly Palace, was banished and transformed into a pig for insulting the Goddess of the Moon. In the game rewrite, before he was banished, he encountered Zizhu(spider), the youngest daughter of the Ruler of the Heaven, who developed a crush on him. After he was banished, despite his pig-like face. Zizhu saw beyond his outer form, recognizing his true self and allowed her feelings to grow. According to heaven law, gods and goddesses who succumb to human emotions are banished from heaven and turned into monsters. Zizhu was fearless for love, she chose to relinquish her goddess powers and become a monster. However, when Bajie tried to regain his place in the heaven realm, one of his tasks was to kill Zizhu-now a monster-and her family. He carried out this task, yet even then, she could not bring herself to seek revenge.
So that's what happened when she said she still not fully recovered? But Bajie didn't slaughter her? Is that why he's still a pig? But omg that's so make the animation where it shown their "transformation" but in two different way more understandable. Thanks for that! But i'm also confused with wukong's war with the heaven story..like where did bajie go when wukong fight the celestials? Also didn't the bull king 'betray' him? Why did he go to fight the celestial with him?? That part real confusing.. i even genuinely thought we gonna see Destined One fights all those celestial beings who actually did some bad stuff in the end..
@@vanada116 bajie wasn’t bajie yet when wukong fought the celestials (he was still one of the generals in heaven, in charge of navy so never met with wukong). When the bull king fought alongside wukong the first time against the heaven, they were sworn brothers. When wukong was killed(many years after the first fight), the bull chose to be on the side of heaven. He doesn’t want to be against the heaven anymore since he’s got a family. That’s the reason why wukong said the bull never made a good choice.
@@vanada116 When gods are banished from heaven, they transform into monsters. Just as Bajie became a pig, Zizhu turned into a spider, though they both once belonged to the heavenly realm. Bajie joined Wukong on the "Journey to the West" only after banished, not before. My guess he didn’t fight alongside Wukong for: 1. he wouldn’t have known Wukong would lose; 2. he tends to be quite self-centered in the original story. Purely my read - from the game rewrite, not the original Journey to the West: Out of all the bosses who got rewards for killing Wukong, the Bull King was the only one who was really forced into it-threatened with his family’s safety and his son’s true identity being exposed. He knew he was stuck, whether he joined in or not. The Bull King and his wife are super relatable to me because they’re just trying to figure out what to do to save their family, knowing full well no one’s going to help them for they’ve fulfilled the task of being white gloves
@@alexzhang7847 thank you for this. Besides the translation slightly incorrect some ppl says the game took not only from one source material, i guess that's why many comments instead of helping, just confusing me more lol but yours are very clear and direct so really thanks for that
Apparently, she turns to be a pill by the Court as when we try to get the last piece of a hanging paper, the Supreme Inspector stops us and there's a talking Stork stops him to not attack us. Also, if you look closely at the cutscene where after fighting the Hundred Eyes Yaoguai, when the sisters are mourning their mother's death, the 4th sister isn't there.
Hidden side story: The 4th sister fell in love with monke and waited for Wukong to come back here again and again in reincarnation. The treasure that monke got from the box was obtained by the 4th sister selling her dowry. She sacrificed her life for him finally,killed by that crane!
@@Sotoyalay704 The Crane implies he WILL use her as an ingredient for his "golden exlixir"(just a general term for a round, marble sized pill). Might be a storyline for DLC
The last sister which later transform to be a human before Violet Spider boss is confirmed to be the secret daughter between Bajie and Violet Spider as if you look closely at her ears, her ears look bigger than her older sisters to resemble Bajie as a pig.
When I was a kid I always thought the spider lady wanted to eat BaJie from the Journey to the West Classic series. Now by this I feel tragic and emotional, true love will always wait even after the next lives. I still haven't have mine yet.
The Jade Emperor and the Greek god Zeus both shared similar traits. They looked down on those below them, frequently had affairs, were often selfish, and lack empathy.
In fact, there are many ancient Chinese novels that are even more explosive, such as Fengshen Yanyi, where King Zhou of Shang has sex with foxes and jade stones, not to mention another novel called Liaozhai, which is full of human ghost and human demon love. Chinese people played lgbtq hundreds of years ago
People got mad about lack of representation for women for no reason…..why did IGN rage bait gamers like this? They had no business running a story saying there were no women in this game….
Because the developers didn't pay the 7 million in extortion money so ign and their ilk got together and tried to ruin the devs image in hopes of having them be an example of what happens when you don't bend the knee, and well in some ways they managed to do exactly that, it's just not the type of example they wanted.
Stupid journalists and their woke agenda. They don’t know anything about the story and the culture. Just boycott them. In the old Journey to the West series there was Lady Buddha. She is very powerful, almost like Buddha himself. Her pictures and statues are portrayed at many places in China and Vietnam.
The 4th sister fell in love with monke and waited for Wukong to come back here again and again in reincarnation. The treasure that monke got from the box was obtained by the 4th sister selling her dowry. She sacrificed her life for him finally,killed by that crane!
She is going to be a pill, if you complete her mission by removing all the talisman on the tower. That fucking crane actually captured her and told you that he is going to make her a golden pill.
4th sister's side quest is quite dark. So these monsters and demons are artificially kept there by heaven as cattle in a slaughter house. Players' favorite girl killed and turned into a pill. This will draw angry players to get even on heaven in the DLC.
Why this chapter's relic is a lotus seedpod? Cuz lotus seedpod in madarin is called "莲蓬"(Lian peng). 莲 could be replaced as "怜"(Also Lian), which means love and pity. Before Bajie was demoted to the mortal world, his title is 天蓬元帅(Tian Peng Yuan Shuai, Marshal Tianpeng). So the relic means "love and pity marshal tianpeng".
Just finished playing chapter 4, loved the spin they added to the original storyline of Bajie. The original spider sister story is actually part of the OG Journey To The West tv series from early 80s. Can't believe it's on RUclips for free as well. If any of yall's interested, here's the link ruclips.net/video/EfH_dPnSYS4/видео.html
I'm just giving a funny example! The Four Sisters Spider = Wednesday > Because they both have almost all black appearance with their cold indifferent attitude!
pig was high lord once at the Havenly Court, he had a crush on High King's lover(Chang-er) so he got banned to mortal and if he loves once more he would be cussed into moster, the havenly court told him to help Monk Tang on the journey to the west so he can regain his honor, the spider was Chang-er's maid, she loves pig at the first place, even she got banned to mortal and cussed into moster. On the journey to the west pig met spider agian, and pig got no time outstay for their renuion
I like calling this Women “The Spider Lilies” like in Spider Lily. Cause I had a tendency of calling them Spider Ladies, but than I remember the Spider Lily plant, “Elegant and Beautiful Spiders” like lilies, and Lady and Lily sound alike to boot. 😜
love this game is combining aspects from the many journey to the west adaptation. i remember watching one adaptation where one of the spider sisters become wu kong's disciple. Maybe she is the 4th sister
Banished from heaven into the mortal world and cursed with a pig form. In the original story he was a marshal in heaven realm, he lusted too much after the moon lady when he was drunk and for this the Jade Emperor punished and banished him; his lost soul only found room in a sow's womb so he was reborn wicked and literally cursed with a pig form. In this story though I think they're hinting at something else, that when pursuing the moon lady he found out she was having an affair with the Jade Emperor and was banished for that and also punished for being lustful by turning into a pig, driving all the ladies he fancies away.
Aracnophobia me was super excited to play that game, but lets be real, this level of spiders is too much for me focusing on defeating it when my body just want to throw the controller on the tv...
Some people may wonder why a pig falls in love with a spider, because in Chinese, the pronunciation of a pig is "zhizhu" and the pronunciation of a spider is "zhizhu", so their pronunciations are the same. Therefore, Zizhuer(Violet Spider) thought that Bajie would become a spider, so she also became a spider after descending to earth.
Why is every good looking woman in this game a spider or transforming demon kid? Chinese myths often have lessons in them so is this meant to say something... 😮
I mean, it's the same for good looking men, or at least, the only one we have which was Erlan Sheng becoming a demon too. Everyone turns into something
If you read Chinese literature enough, they will generally imply that the monsters or even human who live for very long will generally look beautiful, because they know exactly what is beauty with their long lives, and they can change their appearance with their thought. With that being said, someone can choose to be an ugly old man in one day to hide himself and become young and handsome man again when he don't need to hide anymore.
@@duongle1606not really It not consistent In some version, the beauty of their human form will be decided by the beauty of their true form So if their true form is good looking ( by their race standard) their human form will have good looking ( human standard) too Using magic to chance the appearance only give a fake and temporary appearance unlike the form achieved by cultivation They only have 1 true appearance for true form and human form And in the case they are unique being ( not have race) their humam form appearance will be decided by how they imagine about it at the first time they achieve human form
The people who did the 2d animation were geniuses! I would really like to see an animated series/movie based on Journey to the West. Does anyone know who did it?
Lol Dragonball with the character son Goku is based off journey to the west alot of the characters actually appeared in the original novel of course the author made a lot changes to them.
@@JeffCJYThe 4th sister was married to a reincarnated version of the destined one, possibly with a promise of him getting her out of that cave. That is given away by her hair and clothing style, and the fact she keeps helping you. However , the celestial court creates a barrier with talismans to prevent their escape. The 4th try to undo those, and get captured by the crane immortals. This means a dlc where we wreck the heăven again for her is certain.
This video does not have all the cutscenes of her. She helped wukong twice, and was eventually captured by the immortal crane after wukomg removed all the talisman which prevents the spiders from leaving. The crane threathen to turn her into an elixir. Read the top comments here, you’ll be able to understand more
@darling.s I don't think China teaches British RP accent, that's Hong Kong. The Chinese used in this game is semi if not full classical, more archaic and sophisticated sounding than vernacular Chinese spoken today. So British accent would be more fit for ancient China. Just like British accent is always used in period movies like Gladiator.
And the headless singer was given Scottish accent too (in Chinese he has a Shaanxi accent). I'm glad British accent was used in this game, short of Shakespearean English, to match the feel of classical Chinese.
I just want to explain the background story of Chapter 4: -Baijie was originally a general in the Heavenly Palace, and was deeply in love with the fairy Chang'e in the Moon Palace. So in the animation at the end of the chapter, Bajie was seen chasing Chang'e, but accidentally bumped into a little fairy in the Moon Palace - Zizhuer, who fell in love with Baijie at first sight. But Baijie accidentally discovered that Chang'e was having date with another fairy, so he was demoted from the Heavenly Palace. -Zizhuer gave up her fairy identity and chased Baijie to the human world. She heard the boss of the Heavenly Palace mention that he would punish Baijie and let him reincarnate as a pig demon. But in Chinese, "turning into a pig" and "transforming into a spider" have very similar pronunciations. So Zizhuer chose to turn into a spider monster in order to be with Bajie. But she didn't know that Baijie had become a pig demon not a spider, and joined the journey to the west team. -In this way, Zizhuer waited for many lifetimes until Jinchanzi's team came to one of the disasters - the spider spirit and the hundred-eyed demon king. At this time, Zizhuer was one of the seven spider monsters. One day, BAIJIE met the spider monsters who turned into beauties bathing in the river. He turned into a catfish and went to peek at the spider spirits bathing. BAIJIE was recognized by Zizhuer. He was the general of heaven that she had been waiting for hundreds of years. The two spent a night together and had BAIJIE's daughter, the little spider girl. -But BAIJIE didn't know that the spider monster was the previous Zizhuer. In order to survive the disaster and keep going to the West, WUKONG and BAJIE killed all the spider monsters, including Zizhuer. Zizhuer survived in the end and still loved BAIJIE deeply, waiting for him to come back. -Then comes the plot of the fourth chapter of our game......
a bird took her away. That bird was actually a divine immortal called Taishang Laojun. She'll be used to make an elixir, and most likely won't survive the process
What do you mean appropriately? They all are. Actually she may be a little more underdressed than the others. Her sisters are wearing more fancy hanfu, suited for a feast, and their mother a wedding dress.

Many people, me included, was confused about what's relationship between BaJie and the Violet Spider ( Spider Mother ), and what's going on in the anime starts at 30:24. I found one explanation that make the most sense, and like to share it here.
- 30:30 Before BaJie became a Pig Monster, he was a general in Celestial Court.
- 30:38 BaJie always fancied the Moon Goddess.
- 30:52 BaJie ran into a maid in Celestial Court.
- 31:04 The maid fell for BaJie, Bajie had some feeling for her, but still chasing the Moon Goddess.
- 31:15 By following Moon Goddess, Bajie found out Moon Goddess is having an affair with the Celestial Emperor
- 31:20 The Celestial Emperor condemns BaJie, and cast him into mortal realm, and BaJie became a Pig Monster in the process. The maid also heart broken.
- 31:32 Wake up in mortal realm , BaJie meet Gao ( a character from the Novel ), Gao looks like the Moon Goddess, so BaJie fell for her immediately.
- 32:09 Only BaJie found out he is a pig now, and Gao rejected him.
- 32:25 Now fast forward to the event depicted in the Novel, BaJie join the group to retrieve the Scared Scroll. On their journey, they faced the Spider Yaoguai ( Spider Monsters ). Spider Yaoguai were beautiful women when in human shape, and they were bathing in lake. Letting his lust got better of him, BaJie transformed into a fish and approach them.
- 32:51 Unknown to BaJie, one of the Spiders, the Violet Spider, is the maid from the Court She and BaJie recognised each other. Still have feelings to each other, they made out that night
- 33:30 Turns out she pleaded to Emperor for BaJie, which angered the Emperor, and condemned her into a mortal realm and became a spider.
- 33:52 After the night, the group wiped out the Spiders, as they are obligated to kill all monster they meet on their journey. BaJie spared the Violet Spider.
The after is what happened in the game, Violet Spider hinted she beared Bajie's children ( the little golden spider ) , and although she hated BaJie and Wukong for killing her Spider sisters, she was always waiting BaJie's return to marry her.
Bajie never recognised the little golden spider to be his, or he has any feeling for Violet Spider. Not because he is heartless, but because if he does, the Celestial Court will make sure they wipe out the Spiders. The difference between BaJie and Violet Spider is that BaJie is a general, although being condemned, he is still count as a member of the Celestial Court, but Violet Spider was a low-level maid, when condemned, she became a YaoGuai. And Celestial Court will wipe out any ties with YaoGuai.
And Violet Spider understood BaJie. “Love is never about forgiving or getting even, it is never a fair game, it's about two souls woven together by fate.” Wise and benevolent words from YaoGuai / Monsters.
Quite a story really.
UPDATE: Thanks to @weidongdai8532 and @ichenhong's input, there is some mistakes and info missing in the original version I posted. This story makes more sense after correction. The correction are as following:
- 31:20 The Celestial Emperor condemns BaJie, and cast him into mortal realm, and BaJie became a Pig Monster in the process. The maid also heart broken. It is during BaiJie's descent, he realised he only admire Moon Goddess for her beauty, but the Maid is the one he has true feeling towards.
- 31:32 Wake up in mortal realm , BaJie meet Gao ( a character from the Novel ), Gao looks like the Maid (IMPORTANT CORRECTION, Gao looks Maid, not Moon Goddess), so BaJie fell for her immediately.
- 32:09 Only BaJie found out he is a pig now, and Gao rejected him, and BaJie is ashamed of himself
- 32:25 Now fast forward to the event depicted in the Novel, BaJie join the group to retrieve the Scared Scroll. On their journey, they faced the Spider Yaoguai ( Spider Monsters ). Spider Yaoguai were beautiful women when in human shape, and they were bathing in lake. BaiJie found out the Violet Spider is the Maid, and he is ashamed that he is a pig, so he approach the Violet Spider as a fish.
- 32:51 The Violet Spider recognised the fish is BaJie as well. BaJie then showed her his big form, Violoet Spider accepted BaJie, and showed he her Spider form. They showed each other their ugly side, yet still fully accept each other. They made out that night.
- 33:30 Turn out after heard BaJie's banish to mortal realm, the Maid wanted to follow him, she asked "what did BaJie became ?", and was answered "became a pig". In Chinese "a pig" has same pronunciation as "spider", so Maid think BaJie became spider, and she choose her banishment and became a spider. ( Now this hits me hard .... 😢)
One more correction:
"The difference between BaJie and Violet Spider is that BaJie is a general, although being condemned, he is still count as a member of the Celestial Court, but Violet Spider was a low-level maid, when condemned, she became a YaoGuai. "
This is not entirely right. More correct explanation is : BaJie, when joined the Protagonist Group to retrieve the Scroll, became re-listed as a member of Celestial Court, but Maid / Violet Spider is considered as abandoned her immortality and became a YaoGuai / Monster.
Thanks for reading the long post.
Your analyse make sense and explain the story quite well, maybe we would understood more of what's going on if we could understood the song. Look like the jade emperor, if that's him, is a ass
I feel like no matter the place, be it Chinese Literature or the Illiad/Odyssey, Gods always like to toy with the lives of those who they see as lesser than them. The Spider Sisters are no exception, much like the countless victims of Zeus.
@@BrahmaDBA That's because you think the gods should be paragons of virtues. The ancient pagans didn't see them like that, to them, gods are the embodiment of reality, of its bright and darker sides. You can't have one without the other.
Let us not forget that Violet Spider never changed her make-up pattern probably because she’s afraid Bajie might not recognize her
Your explanation is quite spot on as I read the story. Thank you for sharing
The Jade Emperor seems to be the source of all the trouble faced by the characters in this story. He had an affair, he condemned his sister, he slaughtered those living below him.
Wukong was not wrong when he invaded the palace for the sin of them being assholes, in my opinion.
The original story implies that the jade emperor were just like most emperors of China, suspicious, licentious, wilful and total a$$holes.
He’s a lot like the other father gods of other myths like Odin or Zeus
Seems to matter the people, the highest among all tend to do completely evil things to those deemed beneath them
@@aerickmon3350 Buddha's even worse in the story. He defends the Jade Emperor's actions despite having the authority to tell him not to.
@@Sizdothyx Actually, no, Buddha has no authority over the Jade Emperor. More powerful, yes, but can't tell Jade Emperor to do or not to do anything, some kind of cosmic law or karma,... it's complicated.
So when Wukong was wrecking Heaven and no one can catch him. Jade Emperor had to ASK Buddha for help, otherwise he wouldn't interfere.
journey to the west is written to criticize the corrupt government and how the emperor turn blind eyes of those misdeed at that time with Buddhism as camouflage, so celestial court (gods/goddess) symbolize the corrupt government and yaoguai/monster symbolize the people, so it depicted in the story most of the celestial court (government official) are an ass that using their power to push around those beneath them and yaoguai (ordinary people) like a chess piece

That spider sister who had been having all along the way, used to have a some kind of special relationship with Wukong.
At 9:06, in the Chinese version she called us “smelly monkey”, instead of “tell me”. Smelly monkey is actually an intimate nickname in Chinese.
She’s helping us because she loves wukong.
Not Wukong but one of the reincarnated versions of the Destined One. It seems one version actually accepted marriage with the 4th sister, which was implied by her hairstyle, her dowry( 4 chests for you), and her clothing style( matches perfectly the status of a married woman in Chinese tradition).
@@bin5phut334damn really ? I didn't even recognize that hint
So there was one reincarnate that actually agree to marry the 4th sister ? Can you explain more please 😢
@@gipsyavenger3969 In Chinese culture, married women tend to have their hair tied in a bun and wear simple clothing( as indicated by the outlook of the 4th sister and her mother who was married to Bai Zhe), all the other sisters let their hair untied and wear delicate clothes as traditional ladies of a noble family as they are unmarried. Another thing to note is when the Destined one meets the 4th sister for the first time, the head lanterns keeps shouting " Big day", but that was " happy event" - Daxi in Chinese translation, a phrase used to congratulate marriage in Chinese. The four chest - treasures that she told you about also indicated she was fully aware of our next destination - the Flaming mountain, as there are anti-fire items and in Chinese traditional marriage, the girl's house will prepare gifts for the man in the form of chests containing gold and silverwares or clothing, this is known as dowry. This could possibly mean that a previous version of the Destined One engaged with the 4th sister during his journey and intended to return for her after resurrecting Wukong, but received bad ending and the samsara of being trapped by the headband repeated for him. We is the next reincarnated version with no memory of that previous life, but the 4th sister remembers very well and supports us along the way. To be fair, the English translation also missed out a lot of Chinese terms that show love and affection in the 4th sister's words towards the Destined One.
@@gipsyavenger3969 by scallionparsley (reedit)
"I like to shed some light on the interaction between the Destined One and the Fourth Sister NPC character, which I thought was a masterful stroke of storytelling by Game Science. It's an entirely missable, implicit yet heartbreaking story that could easily lead into a DLC.
Firstly, there's no JTTW precedent to these 2 characters. The Destined One is not Wukong, and in JTTW, 6 out of 7 spider demons were killed, the surviving one being the old lady in Chapter 3. The rest has reincarnated. There will always be 7 spiders, including the little girl.
So we know the Fourth Sister is a friendly. She saves the player thrice : when he leapt into the spider cave and got stuck in a huge web, she taking down the hand-for-a-tail boss and using it as a bridge, and finally webbing him out of the cave when it gets overrun by the hordes of little golden spiders.
But as clues laid all over Chapter 3 indicates, the Fourth Sister is more then a friendly. Very likely, she is the Destined One's love interest.
Before I go on any further, I have been playing the game in Chinese dub, so I am unsure how it is worded in English, so my interpretation comes from the original Chinese dub.
It has been indicated repeatedly by bosses and chaff mobs since Chapter 1 that our monkey character is not the first to visit. It is also vaguely hinted that the Destined One is the latest in a long line of reincarnations, with the latest being the most successful one.
When you passed the second shrine across a bridge once inside the Spider Cave, there will be a cutscene when 2 lanterns began screaming "大喜！大喜！“ or "Da Xi" which meant great happiness. The girl then throws a dagger and shuts up the lanterns. It's confusing, but then this scene repeats later when Pigsy is being led into a courtyard with all the sisters in it. There's another set of lanterns screaming the same thing "Da Xi!" when Pigsy approaches the courtyard. So we understood Pigsy is supposed to wed the old lady, so the lanterns recognised the groom.
Right, in the English dub they were screaming "Big Day!"
This hints that the Destined One has a similar status, that of a groom.
3. Same scene, the girl told the Destined One that there's some goodies beyond the gate and told him to help himself to it. Did you expect an ambush? Heck I know I did. But not only was there not an ambush, there were 5 genuine lootboxes, filled with good stuff. I was able to craft the entire set of armor with what I found in there. So, free loot without a boss ambush, and theres more loot here then anywhere in the game, all in the same place at once.
That means the loot was meant for you. That was Fourth Sister's dowry, in marriage to the Destined One. But in the character's latest incarnation, he was unable to recognise the girl, but the girl, and the lanterns, recognised him. She has just decided to give it to the Destined One.
4. When she webbed the Buddha's Right Hand boss, as she turned away, she called the Destined One, "臭猴子“ (Chou Hou Zi), or smelly monkey, and ask him about the world outside. In the English dub, she only called him "monkey". In Chinese culture, adding the word stupid, of course with appropriate intonation and context, is actually a phrase of endearment.
Not a strong case, but again, a subtle hint.
5. During the initial phase of the Purple Talisman side quest, she told the monkey to mind his own business. You could see from the cutscene that she did try to rip off the talisman, but hurt herself. She told the Destined One to walk away because she knew about his primary objective in Chapter 3, and it was not to free her. The purple talismans were placed there by the Celestial Court to keep the spiders there for their own nefarious purpose ( seems the spiders were toiling away for the Court, or something, Crane mentioned some business dealings ), so meddling with the talismans would make the monkey a target for the Celestials, and getting him hurt.
6. Her hairstyle was a dead giveaway. Notice all the other spider sisters had their hair down, but she alone has it all bunned up. In ancient China, this was a common practise as women have their hair all bunned up to signify their change in marital status.
As you approach the final talisman in the courtyard next to the final boss fight, she screams "快走!" (Kuai Zou), or "RUN!"
In the Chinese dub, that scream hurts. Kudos to the VA, you could hear crying and desperation just in that 2 words. She didn't ask for help, or rescue, but to someone who didn't recognise her as his bride, she just wanted the Destined One to be safe from the Celestials.
As the fight with General Jerkoff concludes, the Crane Immortal appears and mentions that not only are you meddling with Celestial Court's business, you also hooked up with an arrogant girl. In direct translation from the Chinese dub, he said "Be rest assured, I will carefully turn her into a pill, and keep it for you. If you still want to create trouble in your next life, remember to come up and claim it."
Game Science, I need that DLC when the Monkey trashes the Celestial Court again."
@@gipsyavenger3969they are lover before my friend. And DLc will be monkey fight the whole god group to get her back . Shut up and take my money . dLC I will buy just give me her back !
That's their fate. Those power-holder in the heaven use spiders'(yaoguais') lives to make a special medicine (to prolong life). This is so unfair. So the fourth sister found this dirty business. She wanted to break the spell that sealed them, and free themselves. That explains why she helped wukong. On the one hand, to let wukong help her break the spell (she can't break it
by herself), on the other hand, she saw the same spirit from wukong: breaking fk fate, to be yourself.
Your point of view is 99% correct. There is only one mistake. Crane Immortal did not use spiders to make elixirs, but because she wanted to tear off the spell that fastened their departure. This behavior angered the heavens. In fact, her purpose was very simple, just to Go see the outside world, she is a woman with an adventurous spirit
No different from living humans experiments the fork up kind of shit that cross the boundary of morality .that's what anger me when they kidnap the 4th sister.

To translate the song at the end, the final line is: "In the next life, Male: I wish I had never met you 请别再回眸, Female: Please remember to meet me.请记得回眸" But regardless, this is the most beautiful song and amine I've seen in years. Bajie (pig), once a god and a general in the Heavenly Palace, was banished and transformed into a pig for insulting the Goddess of the Moon. In the game rewrite, before he was banished, he encountered Zizhu(spider), the youngest daughter of the Ruler of the Heaven, who developed a crush on him. After he was banished, despite his pig-like face. Zizhu saw beyond his outer form, recognizing his true self and allowed her feelings to grow. According to heaven law, gods and goddesses who succumb to human emotions are banished from heaven and turned into monsters. Zizhu was fearless for love, she chose to relinquish her goddess powers and become a monster. However, when Bajie tried to regain his place in the heaven realm, one of his tasks was to kill Zizhu-now a monster-and her family. He carried out this task, yet even then, she could not bring herself to seek revenge.
So that's what happened when she said she still not fully recovered? But Bajie didn't slaughter her? Is that why he's still a pig? But omg that's so make the animation where it shown their "transformation" but in two different way more understandable. Thanks for that! But i'm also confused with wukong's war with the heaven story..like where did bajie go when wukong fight the celestials? Also didn't the bull king 'betray' him? Why did he go to fight the celestial with him?? That part real confusing.. i even genuinely thought we gonna see Destined One fights all those celestial beings who actually did some bad stuff in the end..
@@vanada116 bajie wasn’t bajie yet when wukong fought the celestials (he was still one of the generals in heaven, in charge of navy so never met with wukong). When the bull king fought alongside wukong the first time against the heaven, they were sworn brothers. When wukong was killed(many years after the first fight), the bull chose to be on the side of heaven. He doesn’t want to be against the heaven anymore since he’s got a family. That’s the reason why wukong said the bull never made a good choice.
@@vanada116 When gods are banished from heaven, they transform into monsters. Just as Bajie became a pig, Zizhu turned into a spider, though they both once belonged to the heavenly realm. Bajie joined Wukong on the "Journey to the West" only after banished, not before. My guess he didn’t fight alongside Wukong for: 1. he wouldn’t have known Wukong would lose; 2. he tends to be quite self-centered in the original story.
Purely my read - from the game rewrite, not the original Journey to the West:
Out of all the bosses who got rewards for killing Wukong, the Bull King was the only one who was really forced into it-threatened with his family’s safety and his son’s true identity being exposed. He knew he was stuck, whether he joined in or not. The Bull King and his wife are super relatable to me because they’re just trying to figure out what to do to save their family, knowing full well no one’s going to help them for they’ve fulfilled the task of being white gloves

4th spider sister quest left me cliffhanger.. I was expecting some story with her after completing the quest
the dlc is coming, I hope they include the quest to save her
Apparently, she turns to be a pill by the Court as when we try to get the last piece of a hanging paper, the Supreme Inspector stops us and there's a talking Stork stops him to not attack us. Also, if you look closely at the cutscene where after fighting the Hundred Eyes Yaoguai, when the sisters are mourning their mother's death, the 4th sister isn't there.

The Jade Emperor and the Greek god Zeus both shared similar traits. They looked down on those below them, frequently had affairs, were often selfish, and lack empathy.
Jade Emperor is nowhere as low as Zeus, Zeus still makes him look like Sanzang.
In fact, there are many ancient Chinese novels that are even more explosive, such as Fengshen Yanyi, where King Zhou of Shang has sex with foxes and jade stones, not to mention another novel called Liaozhai, which is full of human ghost and human demon love.

People got mad about lack of representation for women for no reason…..why did IGN rage bait gamers like this? They had no business running a story saying there were no women in this game….
Because the developers didn't pay the 7 million in extortion money so ign and their ilk got together and tried to ruin the devs image in hopes of having them be an example of what happens when you don't bend the knee, and well in some ways they managed to do exactly that, it's just not the type of example they wanted.
Stupid journalists and their woke agenda. They don’t know anything about the story and the culture. Just boycott them. In the old Journey to the West series there was Lady Buddha. She is very powerful, almost like Buddha himself. Her pictures and statues are portrayed at many places in China and Vietnam.

She is going to be a pill, if you complete her mission by removing all the talisman on the tower. That fucking crane actually captured her and told you that he is going to make her a golden pill.
4th sister's side quest is quite dark. So these monsters and demons are artificially kept there by heaven as cattle in a slaughter house. Players' favorite girl killed and turned into a pill. This will draw angry players to get even on heaven in the DLC.
Why this chapter's relic is a lotus seedpod? Cuz lotus seedpod in madarin is called "莲蓬"(Lian peng). 莲 could be replaced as "怜"(Also Lian), which means love and pity. Before Bajie was demoted to the mortal world, his title is 天蓬元帅(Tian Peng Yuan Shuai, Marshal Tianpeng). So the relic means "love and pity marshal tianpeng".
Now this is good rpg!
If my husband choose his friend over me like the pig choose the monkey over the mother spider..i’ll be mad too 😅

@@thestomp11 thanks I saw someone comment explain what happened but thanks though
To shut him up
Banished from heaven into the mortal world and cursed with a pig form. In the original story he was a marshal in heaven realm, he lusted too much after the moon lady when he was drunk and for this the Jade Emperor punished and banished him; his lost soul only found room in a sow's womb so he was reborn wicked and literally cursed with a pig form. In this story though I think they're hinting at something else, that when pursuing the moon lady he found out she was having an affair with the Jade Emperor and was banished for that and also punished for being lustful by turning into a pig, driving all the ladies he fancies away.
The curse was to be reincarnated 1000 lives with each one of them ending in tragic romance. Which means, his lovers will die in each life. Thus...
Aracnophobia me was super excited to play that game, but lets be real, this level of spiders is too much for me focusing on defeating it when my body just want to throw the controller on the tv...
Some people may wonder why a pig falls in love with a spider, because in Chinese, the pronunciation of a pig is "zhizhu" and the pronunciation of a spider is "zhizhu", so their pronunciations are the same. Therefore, Zizhuer(Violet Spider) thought that Bajie would become a spider, so she also became a spider after descending to earth.

Why is every good looking woman in this game a spider or transforming demon kid?
Chinese myths often have lessons in them so is this meant to say something... 😮
Animals or plants can cultivate magic for numerous years and gain a human form which is a sign of enlightenment for them. That’s about it.
I mean, it's the same for good looking men, or at least, the only one we have which was Erlan Sheng becoming a demon too. Everyone turns into something
In Chinese myths,most demon is good-looking.to confuse humanity.Both men and women are。
If you read Chinese literature enough, they will generally imply that the monsters or even human who live for very long will generally look beautiful, because they know exactly what is beauty with their long lives, and they can change their appearance with their thought. With that being said, someone can choose to be an ugly old man in one day to hide himself and become young and handsome man again when he don't need to hide anymore.
@@duongle1606not really
It not consistent
In some version, the beauty of their human form will be decided by the beauty of their true form
So if their true form is good looking ( by their race standard) their human form will have good looking ( human standard) too
Using magic to chance the appearance only give a fake and temporary appearance unlike the form achieved by cultivation
They only have 1 true appearance for true form and human form
And in the case they are unique being ( not have race) their humam form appearance will be decided by how they imagine about it at the first time they achieve human form

What happened to the one who helped the Destined One by the way. We never saw her again after she saved him from falling.
The crane took her and tried to refine her into an elixir of life.
@@killertime6847 Why did they do that?
@@JeffCJY we have to wait for dlc or something like that
@@JeffCJYSome say that pills made from spiders can prolong life and these pills are the food of the gods in heaven.
@@JeffCJYThe 4th sister was married to a reincarnated version of the destined one, possibly with a promise of him getting her out of that cave. That is given away by her hair and clothing style, and the fact she keeps helping you. However , the celestial court creates a barrier with talismans to prevent their escape. The 4th try to undo those, and get captured by the crane immortals. This means a dlc where we wreck the heăven again for her is certain.

Does anyone know the name of BGM when the spider sisters talking? Thanks in advance.
I haven't seen this version of this BGM yet but there's an actual song: ruclips.net/video/Ou-moCeE6Rs/видео.html

British accent, really like her
What happened to the 4th sister towards the end of the chapter?
This video does not have all the cutscenes of her. She helped wukong twice, and was eventually captured by the immortal crane after wukomg removed all the talisman which prevents the spiders from leaving. The crane threathen to turn her into an elixir. Read the top comments here, you’ll be able to understand more
@Sotoyalay704 Ah, okay so that's what happened. Well damn, I completely missed the tailsman side quest. Thank you for the explanation!
Hope that this means we will have the dlc where we wreck the celestial court again, the heaven seems the same as Olympus Pantheon in God of war.
I love spiders!
How in the hell ma'am violet manage to create her children and each their personalities??
are spider sisters from UK?
They do sound quite posh.
@@drowningsinking8300just like in the lord of the rings，everyone has a british accent.
I heard China prefers to use British English as a standard for teaching so it makes sense for them to use the accent in the dub version
@darling.s I don't think China teaches British RP accent, that's Hong Kong.
The Chinese used in this game is semi if not full classical, more archaic and sophisticated sounding than vernacular Chinese spoken today. So British accent would be more fit for ancient China. Just like British accent is always used in period movies like Gladiator.
And the headless singer was given Scottish accent too (in Chinese he has a Shaanxi accent). I'm glad British accent was used in this game, short of Shakespearean English, to match the feel of classical Chinese.

Yes she is. Towards our Monkey. Gosh she's adorable :)
不再有儿女情长，随着师父向前走。
This love story is so sad, just because they were yaoguai 😭
i wonder if they make wukong beat jade emperor ass but remake story😂😂😂
I just want to explain the background story of Chapter 4:
-Baijie was originally a general in the Heavenly Palace, and was deeply in love with the fairy Chang'e in the Moon Palace. So in the animation at the end of the chapter, Bajie was seen chasing Chang'e, but accidentally bumped into a little fairy in the Moon Palace - Zizhuer, who fell in love with Baijie at first sight. But Baijie accidentally discovered that Chang'e was having date with another fairy, so he was demoted from the Heavenly Palace.
-Zizhuer gave up her fairy identity and chased Baijie to the human world. She heard the boss of the Heavenly Palace mention that he would punish Baijie and let him reincarnate as a pig demon. But in Chinese, "turning into a pig" and "transforming into a spider" have very similar pronunciations. So Zizhuer chose to turn into a spider monster in order to be with Bajie. But she didn't know that Baijie had become a pig demon not a spider, and joined the journey to the west team.
-In this way, Zizhuer waited for many lifetimes until Jinchanzi's team came to one of the disasters - the spider spirit and the hundred-eyed demon king. At this time, Zizhuer was one of the seven spider monsters. One day, BAIJIE met the spider monsters who turned into beauties bathing in the river. He turned into a catfish and went to peek at the spider spirits bathing. BAIJIE was recognized by Zizhuer. He was the general of heaven that she had been waiting for hundreds of years. The two spent a night together and had BAIJIE's daughter, the little spider girl.
-But BAIJIE didn't know that the spider monster was the previous Zizhuer. In order to survive the disaster and keep going to the West, WUKONG and BAJIE killed all the spider monsters, including Zizhuer. Zizhuer survived in the end and still loved BAIJIE deeply, waiting for him to come back.
-Then comes the plot of the fourth chapter of our game......
you didn't collect all the sister's scene. :P
Is there a way to rescue her? I saw some DLC related fan stuff where it seems to fight the chicken and get her back(in pill form)
Where did the fourth sister go ? She literally disappear at the end of chapter
Spoiler alert, she got taken away by a bird, status unknown.
You need to complete the 4 talsimans quest to know what happen to her .
@@JayJay-wf2oe not really, didn`t the bird (likely taishang laojun) said that he would like make her into medicineÉ
a bird took her away. That bird was actually a divine immortal called Taishang Laojun. She'll be used to make an elixir, and most likely won't survive the process
Zhu bajie and chang'e is another 😭😭😭😭😭🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
Why is the 4th sister the only one who dresses appropriately?
Cuz she got class.
Actually in accent China,the other spider sister dress like lady.fourth sister dress like a female fighter
Other spider sisters are wearing loungewear, generally in a family of status, women don’t go out will wear clothes like this.
The other Sisters dress appropriately too.
What do you mean appropriately? They all are. Actually she may be a little more underdressed than the others. Her sisters are wearing more fancy hanfu, suited for a feast, and their mother a wedding dress.

Will never understand why the dub gave the characters these weird lord of the rings/harry potter tones and accents
U wanted old school American accents??😅😅
@@KafuKemeh-c3d these are Asian characters. They should have Asian voices and accents not American/English
Can someone plz explain this "not diverse " enough shit i keep hearing, i mean, it's a chinese game about chinese mythological characters, so aside from chinese people, what else were people expecting to see ?
I wish I could marry a beautiful emo asian lady 😢
Can confirm that even in an Asian country, ladies like these are a rare sight…
I've plenty of emo hot asian lady friends, careful of what you're wishing for bro its not gonna be easy 😂
@@RonMingGmail You gotta introduce me to one of them, my brother
😍🤤
I am confused these chapters are full of female charactors.. dont they at one point condemn this game for not being inclusive enough?
6:22 , 23:35 who is this
