yang jian giant running

Wu Wenhua stormed through to the back camp to attack the food supply barn. Yang Jian hurriedly got on his horse to meet the giant, but, realizing he could not protect the food and fight against Wu at the same time, he decided to play a trick to fool his opponent. He hastily dismounted, recited some spells, threw a blade of grass into the air, and uttered, ''Trans- form! Transform at once!" The grass changed into a mountainous giant, its head scraping Heaven, its two eyes as big as water jars, its nostrils like water buckets, its front teeth as long as bamboo poles, its beard as strong as bamboo shoots, and a head as big as the gate of a city wall. It spat out a golden light and shouted like thunder, "Come on, Wu Wenhua! Have a fight with me!" Throwing about his weapon at random, Wu Wenhua suddenly caught sight of the huge giant, much taller and stronger than he himself. He was greatly frightened, and with a single shout, "Here comes my grandad (note: this is more of a figure of speech with connotations that just aren't translatable into English. It's not literally his grandad.)!" he turned and ran, dragging his weapon behind. Jian and his giant chased him until they met up with Yuan Hong.
