Stop It, Mr. Taoist Priest

The monster says that the forest is "angry" and that the monster has to go back. He tells the monster to be careful, as they're about to enter the mountains. He's got a message for the monster: don't be afraid, the monster says, because he's not going to hurt anyone. The monster tells the man that the demon didn't harm anyone, and the man says that's nonsense. The demon says that if the man insists on protecting the demon, it must be kept. It's a demon, after all, if it wants to hurt people, it can't stay in the forest. The mountain spirit doesn't want to leave the forest because the mountain god is the future god, and he won't wake up without the monster's help. He wants to come back and find the man in the future, but first, he wants to get back to the forest so he can find the monster in the present.
