A scream rang out at the same time!
Qin Shou muttered, "Monkey lad, why do I feel like the movement of that tree just now was identical to your cudgel twirling?"
The Monkey nodded, "It indeed looked like a monkey..."
"What do you mean by 'looked like a monkey?' Save me! I'm about to be eaten!" the old swindler's voice cried out.
It was only then that Qin Shou and Sun Wukong remembered that the old swindler was still inside the tree hole. In the short amount of time, only one leg remained outside, trembling.
Sun Wukong poised the Golden Cudgel and was about to smash it down again.
Qin Shou said, "Wait a moment, let's try this."
Qin Shou snatched the Lady Xiang Bamboo and touched it to the tree, which suddenly ceased moving.
Qin Shou said, "Wukong, get the old swindler out."
Just as Sun Wukong was about to act, the old tree made a popping sound like spitting or a toilet plunger being yanked, and the old swindler suddenly flew out, landing on the ground with a flop.
