So the reason he's rejecting his family is because, as part of being cast down, he was cursed to suffer 1000 lifetimes of heart break during his reincarnations. So him involving himself in any way with the Spider Guais makes them targets for the Celestial court. Him rejecting them is his own way of protecting them.
Bajie is a dickhead, but he does really have a noble heart. And his daughters probably hate him never knowing he's trying to protect them. Such a sad story.

6:27 There's no gap between Journey to the West and Black Myth. The father of this Loong (and the other 3 Loongs you met in the previous chapters) was the Loong King of Jing River. He made a bet with a fortune taler (Mr. Yuan) but cheated by disobeying the order from the Celestial Court. He was about to be beheaded and wanted the human emperor Tang Taizong to help him. The emperor promised to help him but failed. The Loong king became a ghost, which gave the emperor continuous nightmares. Then, the emperor started to seek help from monks, so he found Tang Sanzang to begin the journey to the west. This is also why the yellow Loong here says his father gave his life to pave the way for the journey.
Well explained, and in BMW we found that the Loong king's four sons are in fear after their father's death. So they went into hiding, yet the destined one still found them all and killed them all.
The girl heard that BaJie bacame "a pig" (Yi Zhi Zhu), which sounds almost identical to "a spider" (Zhi Zhu); She misunderstood it and reincarnated as a spider in order to meet BaJie
Omg i Heard FFXIV music in the background. Sephirot P2 is such a banger track! Also love the replacement Song for the movie at the end. It actually fits very Well imo
I think what the bird man meant was Wukongs reincarnations over the last hundreds of years have been attempting to retrieve the relics, just like the Destined One, in fact, every one from mout huaguo seeking on this journey was the destined one, but the one we play as is special because he's also wukong reincarnation in this generation
The plot starting from Chapter 4 reveals the darkness and evil in heaven. In fact, this place is a live human body laboratory created by Heaven in the human world. The centipede (the final boss) works for Heaven and is in charge of this laboratory. Those spiders are very pitiful. They are sealed here by a spell and cannot get out for the rest of their lives. They are forced to work in this laboratory. So the Crane Immortal said: The distined one ruined God's business.
13:48 ah, pi ma wen? That's Wukong's title in heavenly court back in his days before the Scripture quest. Well, and before the mountain and the five hundred years of eating molten copper, but I digress. Zhu Bajie must be mistaking you for Wukong in his trance. This means he'll expect you to be just as tough...
Calling Wukong pi ma wen is definitely a personal insult considering that when Wukong found out just how low the position is, he went into a rage and AWOL.
Its the different dragon lord that yellow loong and all other loongs refer to, it's 泾河龙王 who died at the very beginning of the novel due to his disobey to the celestial court over a bet with Yuan, his death was one of the triggers of JTTW.
Check this relic and you will find 6 lotus seeds and one lost, have a think who would've taken it. You can also find a grave for 紫蛛儿 and a 定颜珠 in front of the grave. Now use your imagination and put all these together.
There is a spirit that you can get in ch4 secret area that is a tree it gives passive healing as its passive effect that spirit plus the serpent scale chest piece is great for final fight in game you should try it out.
As i recall in the side stories when Violet Maiden ask what happened to Admiral Tianpeng, she is told he has become a Pig (Zhu 豬), but she mishears what he has become as spider (zhizhu 蜘蛛), so she chooses to become a Spider Guai and wait for him. Then they meet again during Journey to the west and that is why she survives even though the myth says he had to kill all the sisters.
This is my favorite chapter so far. Bajie walks away to protect his loved ones. If he didn't, ... well, see what happened to the bull king in chapter 5.
Don't know why, but as soon as Sephirot's theme from FF14 started playing for that Yellow Loong fight, I started cracking up. Somehow it seemed so fitting. 😂
yellow loong is very easy one if u fight to chapter 5 and then go back to it. same applies to other hidden boss. fight chapter 1 loong when u reach chapter 2 , fight chapter 2 loong when u reach chapter 3
Lol using Windwalker while low on might at the start was pretty funny. I promise it’s good if you have enough might to fuel it. Yellow Loong transformation is stronger, though, but only if you can land the see-through consistently with his varied combo.
"hideous hideous spider who fathered such a thing", a normal person's first reaction would be "who is this?" but bajie... he recognized who she was the moment he saw her.
Too bad someone report copyright on the theme song as it is one of the most beautiful song in the game. I've seen so many videos of the full song without anyone reported it.
in the original journey to the west, the dragon of the east make a bet with the fortune teller about rain, he controls rain so he think he will win, but the edict from the jade emperor told him to follow what the fortune teller said exactly. he change the rain and was sentenced to death. he asked the king of the atang Dynasty to help him, but he failed and the dragon die, haunting the king, thus trigger the need to send Tang Monk to go to the West to get the scripture to cleanse the soul of everyone in the country. the 4 hidden dragon in the game was that dragon sons. that is why he said that his farther death pave the way for the journey
for yellow loong you will need to parry at least one to use his ultimate. press heavy attack 3 times to use his ultimate when you successfully parry once. the more you parried the more damage you will do. 3 is maximum
It's also implied that the Fourth Sister had romantic relationship with our Destined One (or at least our previous reincarnation) hence why she'd been trying to help us during chapter 4 So GS, u better let us rescue her in the DLC
Idk if you looked up the relic name from Chapter 3, but the chinese name for that 10 tailed goldfish creature in chinese is 屁. It's definitely a level of detail that's missed in English. For non-chinese people, 屁 means 'fart' but is also slang for 'bullshit'. Because all of Yellow Brow's cult & action is bullshit. 😂
19:38 yeah you missed the final arm so you didn't get the gloves. 22:36 lol you missed both Scorpionlord and Daoist Mi bosses so you missed the items they drop So much for your research lmao.
Wasn't Bajie a womanizer anyway? He'd chase after any pretty girl, so I don't take his whole "love with the spider guai" seriously. Of course, I'm conflicted too. I went into the game knowing that Wukong, Bajie, etc., were not innocent little heroes or anything, but some of the lore is disturbing. Like tossing kids off a cliff to provoke their father, Bajie boasting about killing a mother, etc.
OK dude. You show boating is getting you defeated way too often. Just beat the guy. What your major problem is. 1. You depend on healing too much. 2. You take too much damage. 3. Transformations are not used as much as you could be using them. 4. You could be focusing on using clones all the time instead of once or twice a battle. 5. Your weapon damage is too low. You should be doing way more damage. Because your clones do YOUR damage. These are your problems. Pick one.
So the reason he's rejecting his family is because, as part of being cast down, he was cursed to suffer 1000 lifetimes of heart break during his reincarnations. So him involving himself in any way with the Spider Guais makes them targets for the Celestial court. Him rejecting them is his own way of protecting them.
I completely forgot about this, thank you so much bro!
Hopefully, there will be a DLC chapter about the Celestial Court 😡
Bajie is a dickhead, but he does really have a noble heart. And his daughters probably hate him never knowing he's trying to protect them. Such a sad story.
@@TrueSquareFace actually that's also just from a TV show in 2000+ which was a adaptation to the original plot. it's not in the original story.
@@Krenisphia he's an asshole but he's also very caring. I like how he's really care of the Destined One as if he's his own son/nephew.
"my main problem is centi..... pedes.."

W video, been watching you since you started wukong, and are honestly my favourite person to watch play wukong
Best Wukong playthrough for sure. Love your explanations of the original story. Thanks for the content
The girl heard that BaJie bacame "a pig" (Yi Zhi Zhu), which sounds almost identical to "a spider" (Zhi Zhu); She misunderstood it and reincarnated as a spider in order to meet BaJie
Please don't keep promoting this. It's just a funny homophonic old joke. It's not true.
八戒：我变成了只猪。 紫蛛儿：那我也变成蜘蛛
This is just a meme
stop buying into that, it’s a chinese joke
@@lancercool1992 lool
I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO FOR SO LONG. I literally cant wait for ur play-throughs man
Gotta drop a like just for the upload I know ima like the video b4 I watch it your take on this game has been amazing so far 💯
Can’t wait for you to finish. Chapter 5 and 6 are CRAZY.
My absolute favorite chapter hands-down. Soo good
Omg i Heard FFXIV music in the background.
Sephirot P2 is such a banger track!
Also love the replacement Song for the movie at the end. It actually fits very Well imo
13:47 watching chinese translate the real word is so fun😂 I love your videos!
Man the gap of your vids are too long.
This is my favourite Wukong run in yt.
Enjoying the native story with gameplay.
Keep it up please! Thank you!

I'm going to make sure I turn heaven upside down to get the girl back by all means when the dlc come.

Really appreciate the info man!
Was hoping you would get to fight the Scorpionlord .
I mean you technically did, but...
im still on chapter 3 ill finish then watch 😔🤘🏽 love your vids tho

Please finish this series my friend!!!! I’ve watched EVERY EPISODE

Very excited for this one!
Facourite chapter So im interested what you will Say about it
At 2:30, he literally predicted the final boss of the chapter as well as the ending cutscene of the chapter
I mean it is close to the original story lol
Burning everything before leaving seems to be the thenme with sun wukong 😂
四渎龙
Some said the old man is 袁守诚。but I'm not sure from where they get to know it.
This is my favorite chapter so far. Bajie walks away to protect his loved ones. If he didn't, ... well, see what happened to the bull king in chapter 5.
You should check out the song Web and Precept, which was the unused accompanying song for Bajie and Spiders story
Don't know why, but as soon as Sephirot's theme from FF14 started playing for that Yellow Loong fight, I started cracking up. Somehow it seemed so fitting. 😂
Wukong has better moves than I do at the club. Someone get him a DJ
Damn you didnt get to fight the scorpion lord 1 on 1 :( one of the best fights in the game
yellow loong is very easy one if u fight to chapter 5 and then go back to it.
same applies to other hidden boss. fight chapter 1 loong when u reach chapter 2 , fight chapter 2 loong when u reach chapter 3
nooooo i just completed chapter 5 and there is no video of it yet 😭 keep it up love watching the game from your prespective
I only managed to beat the yellow loong using a self revive potion. Hardest boss fight second only to erlang
Lol using Windwalker while low on might at the start was pretty funny. I promise it’s good if you have enough might to fuel it. Yellow Loong transformation is stronger, though, but only if you can land the see-through consistently with his varied combo.
Wait until you find the tumb of the spider grandma and the gift that bajie left 😢
What??
@@TrueSquareFace Hint: explore the area where u last fight the Venom Daoist. use photo mode to zoom in and read inscription 💔
@@TrueSquareFace yeah...... it's around the big tree in the background before the Murral
The tomb bro
@@TrueSquareFacewhen you go back to the Hollow you see her tomb and Bajie gilf for her
its a bad day for rain, man. (im indoors)
"hideous hideous spider who fathered such a thing", a normal person's first reaction would be "who is this?" but bajie... he recognized who she was the moment he saw her.
For the higher being like them, they can recognize their kins by connection of karma and blood
just to be clear: in some context, if a Chinese call you stinky, means he/she loves you.
Too bad someone report copyright on the theme song as it is one of the most beautiful song in the game. I've seen so many videos of the full song without anyone reported it.
The “spider woman” picked the “human” realm to be with Bajie.
U need to keep three focus points before transform, so you can use wind walker immediately
Man I really hated Bajie in the original JTTW novel but this game actually changed my mind fr fr😢💔💔💔
Nice! Someone who knows the lore!
14:03 ah, so he must think he's with his wife, back where wukong found him. Clever trick, spider woman...
The saddest chapter in black myth wukong
in the original journey to the west, the dragon of the east make a bet with the fortune teller about rain, he controls rain so he think he will win, but the edict from the jade emperor told him to follow what the fortune teller said exactly. he change the rain and was sentenced to death. he asked the king of the atang Dynasty to help him, but he failed and the dragon die, haunting the king, thus trigger the need to send Tang Monk to go to the West to get the scripture to cleanse the soul of everyone in the country.
the 4 hidden dragon in the game was that dragon sons. that is why he said that his farther death pave the way for the journey
for yellow loong you will need to parry at least one to use his ultimate. press heavy attack 3 times to use his ultimate when you successfully parry once. the more you parried the more damage you will do. 3 is maximum
hit 3 times with ultimate
It's also implied that the Fourth Sister had romantic relationship with our Destined One (or at least our previous reincarnation) hence why she'd been trying to help us during chapter 4
So GS, u better let us rescue her in the DLC
And look like wukong have a waifu now aka a goth waifu the rizz of that monkey king
5:58 twinblades are my favorite weapon. You know, after this, try Dark Souls 2. It has twinblades in it!
I second that. Ds2 was actually pretty good
Square Face: Says the old spider lady isn't a bad person.
Also Square Face: Immediately calls her racist.
Precisely: Animalist.
To quote Afrosenju, "YEEEEELLLLLLOOOOOWWWWWWW LLLOOOOOOONNNNNNGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!"
Also AfroSenju: "AAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHH!" When the horde of spiders started coming at him
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE 🙏🙏🙏
12:22 _Really?_ then I dare say you will enjoy the difficulty of this game, from what I've seen.
Bro, i share ur pain!!!!!
i was waiting lol
i know most of u already know about the story，and bsckground of bajie & zhizhu， enough said，just enjoy the emotional moment
Sorry i laughed so hard about ur fight with yellow loong
13:49 you know that Wukong really hated that title
Yellow Long one of the hardest bosses in the game
someone probably already told you or you found out but the dragon transformation can chain 3 heavies in the special
I’m just here trying to remember which button does what.
One seed in the relic was missing in your menu.
The relic was full before Bajie try to retrieve it.
You missed a really good boss fight, its the scorpio that fight the chicken with you he is really strong.
Idk if you looked up the relic name from Chapter 3, but the chinese name for that 10 tailed goldfish creature in chinese is 屁. It's definitely a level of detail that's missed in English.
For non-chinese people, 屁 means 'fart' but is also slang for 'bullshit'. Because all of Yellow Brow's cult & action is bullshit. 😂
11:25 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 awesome
2hrs on Yellow Loong!😂 it took me 10mins
21:40 bro moment 🗿🗿
I legit beat Yellow Loong in 4 tries but Duskveil? That shit was close to an hour 30 💀
Expecting a mobile version
nice
Chapter 5 is more sad silly
哥们，毒敌大王错过啦，那蝎子boss难度前五的哦，单挑他比打那只两个阶段的大公鸡难

Yes

What armor are you wearing there, my man?
我为什么从没见过这套装甲？这是多周目的吗？我已经三周目了，都没见过
OMG!!! the fucking copyrighted bullshit really ruined the ending 😫
19:38 yeah you missed the final arm so you didn't get the gloves.
22:36 lol you missed both Scorpionlord and Daoist Mi bosses so you missed the items they drop
So much for your research lmao.
Research doesn’t mean I go look for “every possible bosses” in the chapter. Suck it up.
@@TrueSquareFace Bro literally gave me a Games Journalist type of reply. Lol, lmao even. 💀
