By the way, the two had already passed Gao Village. Originally, Sun Wukong was thinking of asking for a night's lodging there, but Duanmu Huai ultimately rejected this suggestion. In Duanmu Huai's view, Zhu Bajie was truly an incompetent team member who does more harm than good. Among the three disciples, if Sun Wukong was the most capable, and Sha Wujing was somewhat transparent, then Zhu Bajie was specifically there to increase the difficulty for Monk Tang.
Often, there was no trouble at all until he made it so; what was a small issue was escalated into a major one by him.
To tell the truth, Monk Tang might be able to put up with him, but if it were Duanmu Huai, he would probably turn him into braised pig's head, pig's trotters, pig's ears, and pig's tongue to accompany his drink by the next day.
So it's not about fearing god-like opponents, it's about fearing pig-like teammates, not to mention a literal pig teammate.
Let's forget about it.
