沙僧
The monkey returns in another Wu Jianwen story, "Long Live the Constitution" ("Lixian wansui"), and bickers with other characters from "Journey to the West" over a constitution for Heaven. The four main characters of "Journey to the West", the monkey, Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing, travel to modern Shanghai in the "New Journey to the West" ("Xin xiyouji") by Lengxue. In Shanghai, they mingle with prostitutes, suffer from drug addiction, and play games of mahjong. "Journey to the West" was not the only gods and demons novel lampooned. "New Investiture of the Gods" ("Xin Fengshenzhuan") is a parody of "Investiture of the Gods" by Dalu that was published as a "guji xiaoshuo" comedy.
