  Xuanzang and his disciples encountered an enormous python eating all the livestock in Tuoluo Manor. Nothing could be done about the situation. The monkey went to subdue the demon with Pigsy. As soon as the python opened its mouth to devour Pigsy, the monkey jumped in and went into its belly. The villagers were happy that the python was killed. The pilgrims then continued their journey and reached the Mountain of Seven Gifts. The fallen persimmons on the path were so smelly and dirty that they couldn't get past the mountain. Pigsy cleared the road after the villagers fed him enough that he became a massive pig. Finally, the team passed through the mountain.
