"The master is inside healing his wounds,"
the Five Ghosts said in unison.
They weren't worried about what Sun Wukong might do to their master; on the contrary, they were somewhat hopeful that Sun Wukong could heal their master.
Sun Wukong pondered; he now understood why the five little ghosts had that attitude earlier.
They likely saw him as someone coming to cause trouble, so they came in aggressively, full of confidence.
In reality, they were probably scared to death.
It was only after hearing his name that they had calmed down, perhaps.
Thinking this, Sun Wukong said, "Take me to see him."
He didn't bother to ask who had injured Zhong Kui; once he saw the man himself, things would become clear.
When Sun Wukong reached the inside and saw Zhong Kui, he was lying on the bed, his breath chaotic, motionless.
Sun Wukong just glanced at him, then said with a laugh, "Your master isn't just injured; he's about to die."
