:「Wukong said, "You call him a horse, but he's no ordinary horse. He was originally the son of Ao Run, the Dragon King of the Western Sea, called the Third Prince, Dragon-Horse.It was only because he set fire to and burned the bright pearl above the palace hall that his father reported him for filial disobedience, and his crime violated the laws of Heaven; it was thanks to Bodhisattva Guanyin that his life was spared.He waited long for the master at Eagle's Grief Gorge, and fortunately the Bodhisattva came in person, stripped away his scales and horns, removed the pearl beneath his neck, and only then did he transform into this horse, willing to carry the master to worship Buddha in the Western Heaven.。」:「?」:「。」:「This is all a matter of each person's own merit — don't try to draw comparisons with him." Sha Monk, hearing this, said, "Brother, is he truly a dragon?" Wukong said, "He's a dragon." Bajie said, "Brother, I've heard the ancients say: a dragon can spew clouds and breathe mist, scatter earth and raise sand;it has the skill to grip mountains and span ridges, and the divine power to overturn rivers and churn seas.?」:「。」Why then does he walk so slowly today?" Wukong said, "If you want him to go fast, I'll make him go fast for you to see."

那师父正按辔徐观,又见悟空兄弟方到。悟净道:「师父不曾跌下马来么?」长老骂道:「悟空这泼猴,他把马儿惊了,早是我还骑得住哩。」行者陪笑道:「师父莫骂我,都是猪八戒说马行迟,故此著他快些。」那呆子因赶马,走急了些儿,喘气嘘嘘,口里唧唧哝哝的闹道:「罢了,罢了,见自肚,别腰松。担子沉重,挑不上来,又弄我奔奔波波的赶马。」长老道:「徒弟啊,你且看那壁厢有一座庄院,我们却好借宿去也。」行者闻言,急抬头举目而看,果见那半空中庆云笼罩,瑞霭遮盈,情知定是佛仙点化,他却不敢泄漏天机,只道:「好好好,我们借宿去来。」

The elder hastily dismounted.They saw a gate tower with hanging lotus carvings and elephant-trunk brackets, painted rafters and carved beams.:「。」:「Sha Monk set down the load, and Bajie led the horse, saying, "This household is an exceptionally wealthy and prosperous family." Wukong was about to go straight in, but Sanzang said, "No, you mustn't. You and I are men who have left the household life; we must each avoid suspicion, and by no means enter uninvited.。」Let us wait until someone comes out, and only then, with proper courtesy, ask to lodge — that would be right." Bajie tethered the horse and leaned aslant against the base of the wall;Sanzang sat down on a stone drum;Wukong and Sha Monk sat by the edge of the terrace foundation.For a long while no one came out, and Wukong, being impatient by nature, sprang up and went in through the gate to look; there he found three large south-facing halls, their curtained lattice windows raised high.On the screen door hung a horizontal scroll painting of Longevity Mountain and the Sea of Blessings;:「on the two gilded pillars on either side was pasted a spring couplet on bright red paper, which read: "Silken threads flutter from tender willows at the level bridge in the evening;。」Snow dots the fragrant plum blossoms in the small courtyard's spring." Right in the center stood a small table of dull black lacquer, upon which sat an antique bronze incense burner shaped like a beast.Above were six folding chairs, and on the walls at either end hung hanging screens depicting the four seasons.

行者正然偷看处,忽听得后门内有脚步之声,走出一个半老不老的妇人来,娇声问道:「是甚么人,擅入我寡妇之门?」慌得个大圣喏喏连声道:「小僧是东土大唐来的,奉旨向西方拜佛求经。一行四众,路过宝方,天色已晚,特奔老菩萨檀府,告借一宵。」那妇人笑语相迎道:「长老,那三位在那里?请来。」行者高声叫道:「师父,请进来耶。」三藏才与八戒、沙僧牵马挑担而入,只见那妇人出厅迎接。八戒饧眼偷看,你道他怎生打扮:

When the woman saw the other three, she grew even more delighted, and with proper courtesy invited them into the hall.After they had all exchanged greetings, she invited each of them to be seated and to take tea.From behind the screen there suddenly appeared a young maidservant with her hair done up in twin tufts trailing silk threads, carrying a golden tray and white jade cups; the fragrant tea steamed with warm vapor, and rare fruits gave off a subtle fragrance.The girl's colorful sleeves swayed, her fingers slender as spring bamboo shoots;she raised the jade cups and passed the tea round in offering.She bowed to each of them in turn.When the tea was finished, the woman also gave orders to prepare a vegetarian meal.:「Sanzang raised his hands in greeting and said, "Venerable Bodhisattva, may I ask your honored surname??」:「And what is the name of this honored place?" The woman said, "This is the land of Aparagodaniya, the Western Continent.My maiden family's surname is Jia, and my husband's family's surname is Mo.As a young woman I suffered misfortune, my parents-in-law died early, and my husband and I kept and carried on the ancestral estate together.We had household wealth of tens of thousands in cash, and a thousand acres of fine farmland.As husband and wife, fate gave us no son; we bore only three daughters.Two years ago, great misfortune struck again, and I lost my husband as well.I have lived as a widow ever since, and this year my period of mourning has come to an end.All that is left behind is the land and the family estate, with no other kin or relatives at all — only my daughters and I remain to carry it on.I have thought of marrying elsewhere, but find it hard to part with the family property.Now that you reverend elders have happened to descend upon us — a master and three disciples, four in all — and since my daughters and I are also four women, I have been thinking of settling here and taking husbands into the family; the four of you would match perfectly.。」I do not know whether your honored intentions would consent to this or not." Hearing this, Sanzang feigned deafness and pretended to be mute, closed his eyes to settle his mind, and remained silent, giving no answer.

那妇人见了他三众,更加欣喜,以礼邀入厅房。一一相见礼毕,请各叙坐看茶。那屏风后,忽有一个丫髻垂丝的女童,托著黄金盘、白玉盏,香茶喷暖气,异果散幽香。那人绰彩袖,春笋纤长;擎玉盏,传茶上奉。对他们一一拜了。茶毕,又吩咐办斋。三藏启手道:「老菩萨,高姓?贵地是甚地名?」妇人道:「此间乃西牛贺洲之地。小妇人娘家姓贾,夫家姓莫。幼年不幸,公姑早亡,与丈夫守承祖业。有家赀万贯,良田千顷。夫妻们命里无子,止生了三个女孩儿。前年大不幸,又丧了丈夫。小妇居孀,今岁服满。空遗下田产家业,再无个眷族亲人,只是我娘女们承领。欲嫁他人,又难舍家业。适承长老下降,想是师徒四众,小妇娘女四人,意欲坐山招夫,四位恰好。不知尊意肯否如何。」三藏闻言,推聋妆哑,瞑目宁心,寂然不答。

:「The woman said, "My humble household owns over three hundred acres of paddy land, over three hundred acres of dry farmland, and over three hundred acres of mountain orchards and fruit groves;we have more than a thousand head of yellow water buffalo, mules and horses in herds, and countless pigs and sheep;to the east, south, west, and north there are sixty or seventy manors, strongholds, and pasturelands in all;in our stores are grain and rice enough that we need not touch for eight or nine years, silks and damasks enough that we need not wear for ten years and more, and gold and silver enough that we could never spend it in a lifetime — far better than any embroidered curtain hiding a springtime romance, to say nothing of a mere two rows of golden hairpins.?」If you, master and disciples, are willing to change your minds and become married-in sons-in-law of this humble family, you may live at ease and enjoy glory and splendor — would that not be far better than toiling on toward the West?" But Sanzang remained as if dazed and dull-witted, silent and saying nothing at all.

:「The woman said, "I was born in the hour of You, on the third day of the third month, in the year Dinghai; my late husband was three years older than I, and I am forty-five years old this year.My eldest daughter is named Zhenzhen, twenty years old this year;my second daughter is named Ai'ai, eighteen years old this year;my third and youngest daughter is named Lianlian, sixteen years old this year — none of them has yet been promised in marriage to any family.Though I myself am plain and unlovely, fortunately my daughters all have a good measure of beauty, and there is nothing in women's needlework and embroidery they cannot do.Because my late husband had no son, he raised them as though they were sons; when they were small he also had them study some of the Confucian classics, so they all know something of composing poems and matching couplets.Though we dwell in a mountain manor, we are by no means of a coarse and vulgar sort, and I dare say we are fit to be matched with you reverend elders.。」If you would only open your hearts, let your hair grow long again, and become the head of this household, wearing silk damask and fine brocade — would that not be far better than a clay begging bowl and black monk's robe, straw sandals and a bamboo rain hat?"

The master suddenly raised his head and, with a shout, drove Bajie back, scolding, "You wretched beast!。」We are men who have left the household life — how could we let riches move our hearts or beauty catch our attention? What manner of principle would that make?"

:「When the woman heard this, she grew greatly angry and said, "This insolent monk is so rude!If I did not consider that you have come all this way from the Eastern Land, I would have you driven out at once.Here I am, sincere and true of heart, wishing to bring you all into my family as married-in sons-in-law, and instead you turn your words to wound me.?」:「。」:「。」:「。」:「。」:「Even if you have taken the precepts and made a vow never to return to secular life, surely your followers under you — my family could still take in one of them as a husband. Why must you be so rigidly bound by the rule?" Seeing her grow angry, Sanzang could only humble himself again and again, and called out, "Wukong, you stay here then." Wukong said, "I've never known how to do that sort of thing since I was small — let Bajie stay here instead." Bajie said, "Brother, don't go pinning it on me — let's all think this over carefully." Sanzang said, "If the two of you won't consent, then let Wujing stay here." Sha Monk said, "Just listen to what the master says.This disciple, favored by the Bodhisattva's guidance and conversion, received the precepts and conduct, and waited for the master.Ever since the master took me in and further granted me his teaching, I have followed the master not even two months yet, and have not made the slightest bit of merit — how would I dare to covet such riches?。」I would rather die than fail to go to the Western Heaven — I will absolutely never do such a thing that betrays my own conscience."

Wukong said, "You don't know about him yet.He was originally the son-in-law of old Squire Gao of Gao Village in Wusizang, but was subdued by old Monkey.He too had once received the Bodhisattva's precepts and conduct, and having no other choice, I caught him and made him a monk, so he abandoned his former wife and came to join the master in going west to worship Buddha.I suppose it's been so long since he parted from her that he's started thinking of that old business again, and now, having just heard of this matter, he's certainly got that same idea in mind once more.。」:「Idiot, why don't you just become this family's son-in-law — only you'll have to kowtow to old Monkey a good many extra times, and I won't expose you, that's all." The idiot said, "Nonsense, nonsense.Everyone here has the same idea in their hearts, and yet you single out old Pig to make a fool of.:『。』As the saying goes, 'Monks are hungry ghosts for lust.' Who among us wouldn't want this?Everyone puts on such coy, mincing airs, and between you all a perfectly good thing has been ruined completely, so that now we can't even get so much as tea or water, and no one tends the lamps either.Even if we endure through tonight, that horse must carry the master and walk on again tomorrow — if he goes hungry through this whole night too, we might as well just skin him.。」You all sit here, and let old Pig go take the horse out to graze."

The elder said, "If the horse were not led back, I feared it might have run off happily on its own." Xingzhe burst out laughing, and told the whole affair of what the woman and Bajie had said to each other from beginning to end, while Sanzang seemed half inclined to believe it and half not.

少时间,见呆子拉将马来拴下。长老道:「你马放了?」八戒道:「无甚好草,没处放马。」行者道:「没处放马,可有处牵马么?」呆子闻得此言,情知走了消息,也就垂头扭颈,努嘴皱眉,半晌不言。又听得呀的一声,腰门开了,有两对红灯、一副提炉,香云霭霭,环珮叮叮,那妇人带著三个女儿,走将出来,叫真真、爱爱、怜怜,拜见那取经的人物。那女子排立厅中,朝上礼拜。果然也生得标致,但见他:

Sanzang pressed his palms together and lowered his head, the Great Sage Sun pretended not to notice at all, and Sha Monk turned his back and faced away.:「Just look at that Zhu Bajie — his eyes fixed unblinking, his lustful heart in turmoil, his lecherous boldness running wild, he twisted and squirmed and murmured soft words, saying in a low voice, "I am much obliged that the immortal maidens have descended.。」Mother, please ask the young ladies to withdraw now." The three girls turned and went back behind the screen, leaving a pair of gauze lanterns behind.:「?」:「。」:「。」:「The woman said, "Would the four elders be so kind as to consider which of you should be matched to my young daughter?" Wujing said, "We have already discussed it — the one surnamed Zhu shall be taken in as son-in-law here." Bajie said, "Brother, don't put this on me, let's still decide it by general agreement." Xingzhe said, "What more is there to decide?You yourself already settled it all so neatly at the back gate just now, and Mother has already called for you — what more is there to weigh?Master shall stand as the groom's-side kin, this old lady shall stand as the bride's-side kin, and old Sun here shall act as guarantor of the match, while Sha Monk shall act as go-between.。」:「?」:「There's no need even to consult the almanac — today happens to be a day of Heaven's Grace and great auspiciousness; you shall come pay respects to your master, then go inside and become the son-in-law." Bajie said, "This won't do, this won't do, how could this business possibly be carried out properly?" Xingzhe said, "Fool, don't play coy — how many times has that mouth of yours already called her 'Mother,' and now you say it won't do?。」:「。」Quick, agree to it, and let us come along to drink some wedding wine — that would do us all some good." With one hand he seized hold of Bajie, and with the other he grabbed the woman, saying, "Mother-in-law, take your son-in-law inside." The fool went along with stumbling, reluctant steps, as if wanting to go elsewhere.:「The woman at once called for the serving boys: "Wipe down the tables and chairs, lay out the evening vegetarian meal, and attend to our three honored in-laws.。」I shall take my son-in-law off to his room now." At the same time she gave orders to the cooks to prepare a banquet feast, so that the families might meet formally the next morning.The several serving boys received these orders and went off to carry them out.The three of them ate their meal, and in a bustle everything was hastily arranged, and they all settled down to rest in the guest quarters — no need to speak further of that.

Bajie said, "Mother speaks rightly.?」:「Please take the seat of honor, and let me bow a few times as well — that shall serve at once as the hall ceremony and as thanks to the in-laws, two matters in one — isn't that a saving of trouble?" His mother-in-law laughed and said, "Very well, very well.Truly this is a son-in-law who knows how to save trouble and manage a household.。」I shall sit here, and you shall bow."

却说那八戒跟著丈母,行入里面,一层层也不知多少房舍,磕磕撞撞,尽都是门槛绊脚。呆子道:「娘,慢些儿走,我这里边路生,你带我带儿。」那妇人道:「这都是仓房、库房、碾房各房,还不曾到那厨房边哩。」八戒道:「好大人家。」磕磕撞撞,转弯抹角,又走了半会,才是内堂房屋。那妇人道:「女婿,你师兄说今朝是天恩上吉日,就教你招进来了。却只是仓卒间,不曾请得个阴阳,拜堂撒帐。你可朝上拜八拜儿罢。」八戒道:「娘说得是。你请上坐,等我也拜几拜,就当拜堂,就当谢亲,两当一儿,却不省事?」他丈母笑道:「也罢,也罢。果然是个省事干家的女婿。我坐著,你拜么。」

Ah!The whole hall was ablaze with silver candles, as the fool bowed facing upward in homage.:「?」:「When the bowing was done, he said, "Mother, which of the young ladies will you match to me?" His mother-in-law said, "That is exactly the difficulty: if I match my eldest daughter to you, I fear the second will resent it;if I match the second daughter to you, I fear the third will resent it;。」:「。」:「if I intend the third daughter for you, then I fear the eldest will resent it — and so in the end I have not been able to decide." Bajie said, "Mother, since you fear they will quarrel over it, just give me all three, and spare us the noise and squabbling that would upset the household order." His mother-in-law said, "What kind of talk is that!!」:「Would you alone take all three of my daughters for yourself!" Bajie said, "Listen to what you're saying, Mother — who doesn't have three wives and four concubines these days?Even if there were a few more besides, your son-in-law would gladly accept them with thanks.。」:「In my young days, I also once studied methods of fierce combat, and I can assure you I would serve each and every one of them to her full satisfaction." The woman said, "No, that won't do, that won't do.。」I have here a kerchief — put it over your head to cover your face, and try your luck at a Heaven-sent match: I shall have my daughters walk past you one by one, and whichever one you catch hold of with your outstretched hands, that one shall be matched to you." The fool did as told, took the kerchief, and put it over his head.There is a poem as proof.The poem says:

詩曰
shī yuē — a poem goes:

咦!满堂中银烛辉煌,这呆子朝上礼拜。拜毕,道:「娘,你把那个姐姐配我哩?」他丈母道:「正是这些儿疑难:我要把大女儿配你,恐二女怪;要把二女配你,恐三女怪;欲将三女配你,又恐大女怪:所以终疑未定。」八戒道:「娘,既怕相争,都与我罢,省得闹闹吵吵,乱了家法。」他丈母道:「岂有此理!你一人就占我三个女儿不成!」八戒道:「你看娘说的话,那个没有三房四妾?就再多几个,你女婿也笑纳了。我幼年间,也曾学得个鏖战之法,管情一个个伏侍得他欢喜。」那妇人道:「不好,不好。我这里有一方手帕,你顶在头上,遮了脸,撞个天婚:教我女儿从你跟前走过,你伸开手扯到那个,就把那个配了你罢。」呆子依言,接了手帕,顶在头上。有诗为证。诗曰:

:「。」:「。」When the fool had the covering properly wrapped, he said, "Mother, please have the young ladies come out now." His mother-in-law called out: "Zhenzhen, Ai'ai, Lianlian, all of you come try the Heaven-sent match, to be wedded to your son-in-law." All that could be heard was the tinkling clatter of girdle-jades and the fragrant scent of musk and orchid, as though immortal maidens were passing to and fro.The fool truly did stretch out his hands to grope for someone, flailing wildly on both sides, but grasped nothing to the left, and caught nothing to the right.Back and forth, to and fro, who knows how many girls seemed to be moving about, yet never could he manage to catch hold of a single one.Lunging east he embraced a pillar, groping west he touched a wooden partition wall.Running dizzily from one end to the other, he could not keep his footing, and kept tumbling and falling.Coming forward he stumbled against the door panel, going back he knocked into the brick wall, bumping and bashing about, until he fell battered, his mouth swollen and his forehead bruised, and sat down flat on the ground.:「?」Panting and gasping for breath, he said, "Oh Mother, your daughters are far too slippery and nimble — I can't catch a single one, whatever shall I do, whatever shall I do?"

那呆子顶裹停当,道:「娘,请姐姐们出来么。」他丈母叫:「真真、爱爱、怜怜,都来撞天婚,配与你女婿。」只听得环珮响亮,兰麝馨香,似有仙子来往。那呆子真个伸手去捞人,两边乱扑,左也撞不著,右也撞不著。来来往往,不知有多少女子行动,只是莫想捞著一个。东扑抱著柱科,西扑摸著板壁。两头跑晕了,立站不稳,只是打跌。前来蹬著门扇,后去挡著砖墙,磕磕撞撞,跌得嘴肿头青,坐在地下。喘气呼呼的道:「娘啊,你女儿这等乖滑得紧,捞不著一个,奈何,奈何?」

:「。」:「。」:「The woman then lifted the covering from his head and said, "Son-in-law, it is not that my daughters are so slippery — it is that they are all being modest and yielding to one another, none willing to take you." Bajie said, "Oh Mother, since none of them is willing to take me, then why don't you take me yourself." The woman said, "What a fine son-in-law indeed!So lacking in any sense of proper order, that you'd even want to take your own mother-in-law?These three daughters of mine each have the cleverest of hands and hearts, and each of them has stitched, with her own hands, a pearl-studded, brocade-trimmed undershirt.。」:「。」Whichever one's shirt you manage to put on, that one I shall have marry you." Bajie said, "Good, good, good — bring all three garments here for me to try on, and if I can wear all of them, then just let all three marry me." The woman turned and went back into the room, but brought out only a single one, and handed it to Bajie.The fool took off his blue brocade robe, took the shirt, and put it on his body at once.But before he had even fastened the sash, there came a sudden snap, and he tumbled and fell flat to the ground.It turned out to be several ropes binding him tightly.The fool, unable to bear the pain, found that all these people had already vanished without a trace.

Now to tell of Sanzang, Xingzhe, and Sha Monk — they woke from a sound sleep to find, before they knew it, the east already turning pale with dawn.Startled, they opened their eyes and lifted their heads to look about, and lo, there was no grand mansion or lofty hall to be seen anywhere, nor any carved beams and painted rafters — instead, each of them was lying asleep in a grove of pines and cypresses.In alarm the elder hastily called out to Xingzhe.:「。」:「?」:「?」:「Sha Monk said, "Brother, it's over, it's over, we've run into ghosts." The Great Sage Sun understood full well in his heart, and said with a faint smile, "What do you mean by that?" The elder said, "Look where we have been sleeping!" Xingzhe said, "Sleeping here beneath these pines has been comfortable enough and no trouble at all.。」:「?」:「。」But I do wonder where that fool is now, suffering his punishment." The elder said, "Who is suffering punishment?" Xingzhe said with a laugh, "Yesterday that household of mother and daughters — I do not know which Bodhisattva it was — appeared here to test and enlighten us; it seems they departed in the middle of the night, and only poor Zhu Bajie is left to suffer for it." When Sanzang heard this, he pressed his palms together and bowed in reverence.Then they saw, on an old cypress tree behind them, a note fluttering and dangling, hung up for them to see.Sha Monk hurried over to fetch it and bring it to show his master, and it turned out to be a verse of eight lines, which read:

却说三藏、行者、沙僧一觉睡醒,不觉的东方发白。忽睁睛抬头观看,那里得那大厦高堂,也不是雕梁画栋,一个个都睡在松柏林中。慌得那长老忙呼行者。沙僧道:「哥哥,罢了,罢了,我们遇著鬼了。」孙大圣心中明白,微微的笑道:「怎么说?」长老道:「你看我们睡在那里耶?」行者道:「这松林下落得快活。但不知那呆子在那里受罪哩。」长老道:「那个受罪?」行者笑道:「昨日这家子娘女们,不知是那里菩萨,在此显化我等,想是半夜里去了,只苦了猪八戒受罪。」三藏闻言,合掌顶礼。又只见那后边古柏树上,飘飘荡荡的挂著一张简帖儿。沙僧急去取来与师父看时,却是八句颂子云:

:「。」:「?」:「。」:「。」:「Just as the elder, Xingzhe, and Sha Monk were reciting this verse aloud, they heard, from deep within the grove, a loud voice crying out: "Master, ah, I'm bound so tight it's killing me, save me, oh save me, I'll never do it again!" Sanzang said, "Wukong, is that cry perhaps Wuneng's voice?" Sha Monk said, "It is indeed." Xingzhe said, "Brother, pay him no mind, let us be on our way." Sanzang said, "Though that fool is foolish and stubborn by nature, he is at least single-mindedly simple and honest, and besides he has some real strength in him, for carrying the luggage.。」Still bearing in mind that Bodhisattva's compassionate intent of that day, let us save him and take him along with us — I daresay he will never dare do such a thing again." So Sha Monk rolled up the bedding and packed up the carrying-pole;the Great Sage Sun untied the reins and led the horse, guiding Tang Priest into the grove to search and look.Ah!This is precisely the case:

What it’s about

A wealthy widow and her three beautiful daughters offer their whole household in marriage to the travellers, promising land, wealth and ease if only they abandon the journey west. Tripitaka sits stony and silent, Wukong and Sha decline, but Bajie's appetite gets the better of him and he sneaks back to volunteer as a son-in-law.

The women set him to catch a bride blindfolded among them, and every gown he grabs slips away until he is exhausted and roped fast in a magic sash. Dawn reveals no mansion at all, only bare woods and a note pinned in a tree: the widow and her daughters were Guanyin, Manjusri, Samantabhadra and the Bodhisattva of Mount Li, come to test whether the pilgrims' hearts were fixed.

When it was written 背景

This 回 is a staged temptation rather than a monster fight, and its lesson is aimed squarely at desire and half-heartedness. The four saints in disguise let the novel grade each pilgrim's resolve, and Bajie's public humiliation is the running comic-moral engine of the whole book. Learners can follow the marriage offer, the blindfold game and the morning note as three clean stages, and should watch for the recurring claim that the pilgrim's own wanting is the greatest danger on the road.
