Red Boy, the child of the Bull Demon King and the Iron Fan Princess, is a man of Taoism and has great supernatural powers. In order to prolong his life, he wants to make Tang Monk meat. One day, he was looking in the air and saw Tang Seng's master and apprentice walking from a distance. He knew that Tang Seng's apprentice was highly skilled in martial arts.
He was afraid that he would not be able to win in a head-on fight, so he wanted to use Tang Seng's characteristic of not distinguishing between authenticity and kindness to outwit him. He turned himself into a seven-year-old child, tied his hands and feet with a rope, hung high on a tree branch and shouted "Help". Tang Monk heard the cry and asked Wukong to rescue him.
Wukong recognized that it was a monster and told Master to mind his own business. Tang Monk was angry and asked Bajie to rescue Honghaier. When Tang Monk asked Wukong to carry Red Boy on his back, Wukong was only carrying a fake one. Red Boy's real body had already jumped out of the sky and blew up a whirlwind.
Tang Seng took the opportunity to kidnap him. After the wind stopped, Tang Monk disappeared, and Wukong knew that it was a monster that was responsible. He remembered that Bajie and Monk Sha had taken care of their luggage, and he hurried to the Huofang Cave in Kusong Stream to find his master. Wukong and Boy had a fierce battle, but Red Boy couldn't defeat Wukong.
He sprayed out the three-flavored true fire that even the Dragon King could not extinguish. Wukong hurriedly jumped out of the fire formation. Seeing that he could not win, he went to the South China Sea to invite Guanyin Bodhisattva. The Bodhisattva surrendered Red Boy and brought him back to the South China Sea. Wukong rescued Tang Seng, and the four masters and disciples continued to the West to learn scriptures.
