In the cave dwelling.
After feasting to their heart's content, the monkey troop gathered to belch and casually discuss matters of cultivation.
Bored out of its wits and understanding everything they said, Multi-Headed Turtle edged closer to join the discussion and offered its own insights, solving their worries and doubts.
Many monkeys were self-taught with no real understanding; Sun Wukong too had never undergone systematic teaching.
All were like blind men crossing a river by feeling for stones, so a detailed explanation was naturally welcomed by the monkey troop, who surrounded Multi-Headed Turtle with unending questions about cultivation.
Multi-Headed Turtle patiently and meticulously answered each one, truly embodying the demeanor of a mentor.
