Sanzang answered: "When the heart is born, all manner of demons are born;，。when the heart is extinguished, all manner of demons are extinguished.，。I, your disciple, once vowed a great vow before the Buddha at Huasheng Temple, and I cannot help but exhaust my heart in this.，，，，。」，，，：「！」，。On this journey I am resolved to reach the Western Heaven, to see the Buddha and seek the scriptures, so that our Wheel of the Law may turn again, and I pray that the sacred lord's imperial reign may stand firm forever." When the monks heard these words, every one of them admired him, every one of them spread the word, and all cried out together: "A loyal and true-hearted master who greatly proclaims the Law!" Their praise was endless, and they invited the Master to his bed to rest.

，。Sanzang, giving no thought to his own life, climbed up onto that steep ridge.，。He traveled half a day and still saw no trace of human dwelling or village.，。First, his stomach was hungry; second, the road was uneven.，，。Just at this critical moment, he saw two fierce tigers roaring in front of him, and behind him several long snakes coiling.，。To his left were venomous insects, to his right monstrous beasts.，，。Sanzang, alone and without any plan, could only surrender body and mind and let Heaven decide his fate.，，，，。To make matters worse, the horse's legs went weak and its hooves buckled, and it sank down to its knees, lying prostrate on the ground — beat it and it would not rise, pull it and it would not move.，，，。The Master was in such distress that he had nowhere to turn, truly in ten thousand degrees of misery, and had already resigned himself to certain death, utterly helpless.

，，，：「，。Now it happened that the spirit of Bo-qin's deceased father, delivered by these rites and freed from his suffering in the underworld, had his ghost return that very night to the family home, where he appeared in a dream to the whole household, young and old, saying: "In the underworld I was suffering hardship I could not escape, and for a long time I could not be reborn.，，，。Now, fortunately, thanks to the holy monk who recited the scriptures, my sins and karma have been dissolved, and the King of the Underworld has sent someone to escort me up to the rich lands of China, to be reborn into a family of standing.，，。You must be sure to thank and see off the elder properly — do not be remiss, do not be remiss.。」：，。I go now." And truly it was thus: the myriad rites of Dharma, solemn and grand, have their purpose indeed — delivering the dead from suffering, freeing them from their sunken state.，。The whole household awoke from the dream just as the sun was already rising in the east.：「，，，。Bo-qin's wife said: "Taibao, last night I dreamed that Father-in-law came home, and said that in the underworld he suffered hardship he could not escape, and for a long time could not be reborn.，，，，，。Now, fortunately, thanks to the holy monk reciting the scriptures, his sins and karma have been dissolved, and the King of the Underworld has sent someone to escort him up to the rich lands of China, to be reborn into a family of standing, and he told us to thank that elder properly, and not to be remiss toward him.，，。Having said this, he went straight out the door and wandered off at ease.，。We called to him and he did not answer; we tried to keep him and could not.。」：「，。When I awoke, it was but a dream." Bo-qin said: "I too had just such a dream, the very same as yours.。」，：「，，。」，：「，，，，，，。」：「，，，。」，，，：「，。」：「，？」Let us go and tell Mother." Just as husband and wife were about to go and tell her, they heard the old mother calling: "Bo-qin, my son, come here — I have something to tell you." The two went before her, and the old mother, sitting up in bed, said: "My child, this night I had a joyful dream — I dreamed your father came home, and said that thanks to the elder's rites of deliverance, his sins and karma had already been dissolved, and he was going up to the rich lands of China, to be reborn into a family of standing." Husband and wife both burst out laughing and said: "My wife and I both had this very dream, and were just coming to report it, never expecting that Mother would call us for the very same dream." So the whole household, young and old, was roused, and preparations were made to express their gratitude; they got the horse ready for him, and all came before Sanzang to bow in thanks, saying: "We are endlessly grateful to you, elder, for delivering our departed father from suffering and granting him rebirth." Sanzang said: "What ability has this poor monk, that he should deserve such thanks?"

What it’s about

Tripitaka and two attendants stray into a demon lair, where the Tiger General, Bear Mountain Lord and Buffalo Chief butcher and eat the attendants. Venus rescues the monk at dawn, but he must continue alone through beasts and steep country. The hunter Liu Boqin kills a tiger, shelters him and asks him to recite sutras for his dead father.

Liu's father appears in a dream to confirm that the recitation freed him for rebirth. Liu escorts Tripitaka to the Tang frontier but cannot cross it. From beneath Five Elements Mountain a voice calls to the traveller: Wukong has waited five hundred years for the master who can release him.

When it was written 背景

The first road chapter destroys the security of imperial departure immediately, establishing Tripitaka's physical helplessness and the novel's uneasy proximity of comic monsters and bodily horror. Liu's household shows what the monk can contribute before he has magical protectors. Border, mountain and hunting words dominate; the final voice reunites two long-separated plots.
