A group of people had already arrived at the Golden Light Temple; upon seeing the Imperial Guards, the monks inside hurriedly went to report, and Sand Monk along with others came out to greet them. Sand Monk noticed Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie sitting in the sedan chairs, both wearing officials' hats, as soon as he emerged.
Touching his head, Sand Monk said, "Big Brother, Second Brother! Could it be that the king has appointed you as officials?"
"Junior Brother Sand, you're talking nonsense again. Our mission is to seek the Scriptures, not to become officials," Zhu Bajie said with a smile.
Sun Wukong got out of the sedan chair and said, "Junior Brother Sand, bring those two demons out. The king wants to interrogate them personally."
Sand Monk quickly said, "Big Brother, Second Brother, take me to the palace to see too, please!"
When Zhu Bajie heard this, he said with some surprise, "If you go, who will stay to look after the horses and our luggage?"
