诗曰:
、,。Now the story tells how Bajie and Sha Monk fought the monster for some thirty rounds without either side winning.?You ask why neither side won?,,。If it came to raw skill, never mind two monks — even twenty monks could not have matched that spirit.,;It was only because Tang Sanzang's fated span was not yet to end, that unseen guardian spirits of the Dharma were secretly protecting him;、、、、。and in the air the Six Ding and Six Jia generals, the Five Directions' Herald Spirits, the Four Duty Officers of the Watches, and the eighteen guardian Galan of the faith were all lending their strength to Bajie and Sha Monk.

。But leave aside for now the fighting of these three.,,:「,,?Now the story tells how the elder, weeping in grief inside the cave, thought of his disciples, tears streaming from his eyes, and said, "Wuneng, ah — I wonder in what village you have met with kindly friends and lingered over an offered meal?,,?Wujing, ah — you too do not know where to search for him; can the two of you have found each other?,?How could you know that I have met a demon and suffer hardship here?,,?」,,,:「,?When shall I ever meet you both again, escape this great calamity, and hasten on to Vulture Peak?" Just as he was weeping in sorrow and vexation, he suddenly saw a woman come out from within the cave, steadying herself against the soul-binding post, calling out, "Elder, where have you come from??」,,。Why have you been bound here?" When the elder heard this, he stole a tearful glance — the woman appeared to be about thirty years of age.:「,。So he said, "Bodhisattva, there is no need to ask.,,,?」:「。I am already one fated to die, having walked into your household. If you mean to eat me, then eat me and be done — why ask more?" The woman said, "I am not one who eats people.,,。My home lies some three hundred li west of here, where there stands a city called the Kingdom of Elephantia.,。I am the third princess of that kingdom's king, my childhood name being Baihuaxiu, 'Shamed by a Hundred Flowers.',,,,,。It is only that thirteen years ago, on the night of the fifteenth of the eighth month, while I was out enjoying the moon, a sudden violent wind carried me off, seized by this demon, and I have been his wife for these thirteen years, bearing him children here, with never a word sent back to the court.,。I think of my parents, unable to see them again.,?」:「,,。Where have you come from, that he seized you?" Tang Sanzang said, "This poor monk was sent to fetch scriptures from the Western Heaven; not expecting it, I wandered by chance and mistakenly stumbled in here.,。」 :「,,。Now he means to seize my two disciples as well, to steam and eat all together." The princess said with a smiling comfort, "Elder, set your heart at ease — since you are one fetching scriptures, I can save you.,,,。」:「,,。」That Kingdom of Elephantia lies on your great road westward. If you will carry a letter for me there, and present it with respects to my parents, I shall then persuade him to spare you." Tripitaka nodded and said, "Bodhisattva, if you can indeed save this poor monk's life, I am willing to serve as the bearer of your letter and message."

The princess said, "No matter. My royal father has no son, having borne only us three sisters. If he sees this letter, he is bound to feel regard for you." Tripitaka tucked the letter tightly into his sleeve, thanked the princess, and turned to go out.:「,,,,。The princess caught hold of him and said, "You cannot get out through the front gate — all the demons great and small are outside the gate waving banners and shouting, beating drums and clashing gongs, aiding the Great King in his battle with your disciples.。You had best go out by the back gate.,;If the Great King himself catches you, he will still question you first;,,。but I fear that if the lesser demons catch you, they will not care good from ill, and in their eagerness might take your life.。Let me go before him and speak a word to smooth things over.,,。」,,,,,,。If the Great King releases you, wait until your disciples have gotten some sign from him, then seek you out and travel on together properly."

那公主急转后面,即修了一纸家书,封固停当。到桩前解放了唐僧,将书付与。唐僧得解脱,捧书在手道:「女菩萨,多谢你活命之恩。贫僧这一去,过贵处,定送国王处。只恐日久年深,你父母不肯相认,奈何?切莫怪我贫僧打了诳语。」公主道:「不妨,我父王无子,止生我三个姊妹,若见此书,必有相看之意。」三藏紧紧袖了家书,谢了公主,就往外走。被公主扯住道:「前门里你出不去,那些大小妖精都在门外摇旗呐喊,擂鼓筛锣,助著大王,与你徒弟厮杀哩。你往后门里去罢。若是大王拿住,还审问审问;只恐小妖儿捉了,不分好歹,挟生儿伤了你的性命。等我去他面前说个方便。若是大王放了你啊,待你徒弟讨个示下,寻著你一同好走。」三藏闻言,磕了头,谨依吩咐,辞别公主,躲离后门之外,不敢自行,将身藏在荆棘丛中。
,,,。Now the story tells how the princess, her heart devising a clever scheme, hurried forward, went out the gate, and parted the crowd of demons great and small.,。She heard only the clang and clatter of weapons ringing wildly.、。It was Bajie and Sha Monk fighting the monster there in midair.:「!」,、,,,:「,?」:「,,,。」:「?The princess called out sharply, "Yellow Robe, my lord!" When the demon king heard the princess calling, he at once abandoned Bajie and Sha Monk, brought his cloud down, tucked away his steel blade, and taking the princess's arm said, "Wife, what is it you wish to say?" The princess said, "My lord, just now as I lay asleep within the gauze curtains, in a dream, I suddenly saw a golden-armored spirit." The demon said, "What golden-armored spirit??」:「,:,,,。What business would he have coming to my gate?" The princess said, "When I was young in the palace, I once secretly made a private vow to the gods: that if I were to marry a worthy son-in-law consort, I would climb famous mountains, pay respects at immortal shrines, and give alms to monks.,,。Ever since I was wed to you, we husband and wife have lived in joyful union, and until now I never once mentioned it.,,。That golden-armored spirit came to demand fulfillment of the vow, and startled me awake with a shout — it turned out to be but a dream of the southern branch.,,。For this reason I hurried to compose myself and come to my lord to tell of it, never expecting that there would be a monk bound to that post.,,,。I earnestly beg my lord, in mercy and compassion, to consider my humble wish and spare that monk — let it count as my giving alms to a monk in fulfillment of my vow.?」:「,,。I do not know whether my lord will consent?" The demon said, "Wife, you are being far too anxious — what is this, such a pressing matter?,,?When I wish to eat people, is there nowhere I could scoop up a few to eat? What difference does one stray monk make?。」:「,。」:「,,。」,:「,。Let him go, then." The princess said, "My lord, let him go out by the back gate." The demon said, "How tiresome — if I am letting him go, why fuss over back gate or front gate?" So he took up his steel blade and called out loudly, "Zhu Bajie, come here.,;It is not that I fear you, and so will not fight you;,。but for the sake of my wife's regard, I shall spare your master.,。Go quickly to the back gate and find him, and be off to the west.,。」If you dare trespass into my territory again, I will absolutely not forgive it."

When the king heard this, tears filled his eyes and streamed down as he said, "Since the princess vanished thirteen years ago, I know not how many officials of the two ranks have been demoted and dismissed, nor how many maidservants and eunuchs within and without the palace have been beaten to death over it;,,。it was only ever said that she had wandered out of the palace and lost her way, with nowhere to search for her.,,。Throughout the whole city, countless households among the common people were also interrogated, yet still no trace was found.。How could we have known it was a demon that had carried her off?,。」。Only today, hearing this news abruptly, am I moved to grief and tears." Tripitaka drew the letter from his sleeve and presented it., 「」,,。The king took it, and on seeing the two characters "safe and well," his hands went weak all the more, and he could not bring himself to break the seal.。He gave the order to summon the Grand Academician of the Hanlin Academy to the hall to read the letter.。The academician came up to the hall at once.,,。Before the hall stood the many civil and military officials, and behind the hall the queens, consorts, and palace women, all listening intently with ears strained.。The academician broke the seal and read it aloud.:It was written thus:

,:「,,?」,。The king wept for a long while, then asked the officials of the two ranks, "Who among you dares raise troops and lead soldiers, to capture the demon for me and rescue my Princess Baihua?" He asked several times over, but not a single person dared answer.,。They were truly like military officers carved of wood, and civil officials molded of clay.,。The king's heart grew ever more troubled, and his tears gushed like a spring.:「。Then the many officials all together bowed low and memorialized, "Let Your Majesty cease from vexation for now.,,,,。The princess has been lost these full thirteen years with no word, and now by chance a holy monk of the Tang has brought a letter here — we do not yet know if it is genuine.,,,。Moreover, we your servants are but ordinary men on ordinary horses; what we have studied is the art of war and military strategy, fit only for arraying troops and encamping garrisons, to guard the nation against invasion and trouble.,,?That demon is a creature that comes on clouds and goes on mist — we cannot even come face to face with it, so how could we go to subdue and rescue her?,。We think that this fetcher of scriptures from the Eastern Land must be a holy monk of the great nation above.,,。This monk's Way is so lofty that dragons and tigers submit to him, and his virtue so weighty that ghosts and spirits revere him — he must surely possess arts for subduing demons.:『,。』,,。」As the old saying goes: 'He who comes speaking of trouble is himself the man of trouble.' It would be best to invite this elder at once to subdue the demon and rescue the princess — that would truly be the plan of perfect safety."

国王哭之许久,便问两班文武:「那个敢兴兵领将,与寡人捉获妖魔,救我百花公主?」连问数声,更无一人敢答。真是木雕成的武将,泥塑就的文官。那国王心生烦恼,泪若涌泉。只见那多官齐俯伏奏道:「陛下且休烦恼。公主已失,至今一十三载无音,偶遇唐朝圣僧,寄书来此,未知的否。况臣等俱是凡人凡马,习学兵书武略,止可布阵安营,保国家无侵陵之患。那妖精乃云来雾去之辈,不得与他觌面相见,何以征救?想东土取经者,乃上邦圣僧。这和尚道高龙虎伏,德重鬼神钦,必有降妖之术。自古道:『来说是非者,就是是非人。』可就请这长老降妖邪,救公主,庶为万全之策。」
,,:「,,,,,,,,?」:「,。」:「,?」,。When the king heard this, he turned quickly and at once invited Tripitaka, saying, "Elder, if you have the skill and can exert your dharma power to capture the demon and bring my child home to court, then you need not even go on to the Western Heaven to worship the Buddha — you may grow your hair back and keep it, and I shall become sworn brothers with you, and we shall sit together upon the dragon throne and share riches and honor together — how would that be?" Tripitaka hastily rose and said, "This poor monk knows only a little of chanting to the Buddha; in truth I have no skill at subduing demons." The king said, "If you yourself have no skill at subduing demons, how do you dare go to the Western Heaven to worship the Buddha?" The elder could not conceal it, and so spoke of his two disciples.:「,,。He memorialized, "Your Majesty, this poor monk alone could truly never have reached this place.,,,。」:「,,?This poor monk has two disciples, who are skilled at opening roads through mountains and laying bridges over waters, and have protected this poor monk in reaching here." The king said in surprise, "You monk are quite unreasonable — since you have disciples, why did you not bring them in together with you to see me?,,。」:「,,。」:「,?」:「。Were they to come to court, even if there were no reward to their liking, there would certainly be a fitting portion of a meal offered." Tripitaka said, "This poor monk's disciples are of ugly and coarse appearance, and I dared not bring them presumptuously into court, fearing they might startle and harm Your Majesty's dragon person." The king laughed and said, "Listen to you, monk — surely you don't think I would be afraid of them?" Tripitaka said, "I dare not say more.,,,,,。My eldest disciple is surnamed Zhu, named Wuneng, called Bajie; he was born with a long snout and jutting tusks, bristly mane and fan-like ears, a thick and heavy body with a great belly, and when he walks the wind rises around him.,,,,,,,。My second disciple is surnamed Sha, his Dharma name Wujing, called Monk; he was born a full twelve feet tall, with arms broad enough for three spans, a face the color of indigo blue, a mouth like a basin of blood, eyes flashing and glinting, and teeth set like rows of nails.,。」:「,?They are both of such an appearance, and that is why I dared not presumptuously bring them into court." The king said, "Now that you have described them to me this once, why should I, the lonely one, fear them?。」。Summon them in." He at once had a gold placard sent to the post-house to invite them.

,:「,,。When that idiot heard he was being invited, he said to Sha Monk, "Brother, you still would not let the letter be delivered — now you see the good that comes of delivering a letter.,,,;I suppose our master delivered the letter, and the king said the letter-bearer must not be treated carelessly, and is certainly arranging a banquet to entertain him;,,,。his own stomach's capacity is no match for it, and knowing that you and I have an appetite, he brought up our names, and that is why the gold placard has come to invite us.,。」:「,,?」、,,。Let us all eat a good meal, and tomorrow we can travel on well." Sha Monk said, "Brother, whatever the reason may be, shall we just go?" So they turned over the luggage and horse to the post-house officer, each took up his own weapon, and followed the gold placard into court.,,,。They soon reached before the white jade steps, stood off to the side, made a single bow of respect toward the throne, and did not move again after that.,。Among the many civil and military officials, there was not one who was not afraid.:「,,,,?They all said, "These two monks being ugly is one thing, but they are far too coarse and rude — how can it be that on seeing our king they do not even bow down, and after their bow merely stand upright without further ado?,。」:「,,:,,。」How strange, how strange." Bajie, hearing this, said, "Gentlemen, do not discuss us so — we are simply built this way: at first glance we do indeed look somewhat ugly, but if you look at us a while longer, we grow quite pleasing to the eye."

,,,:「!」,,。Now Bajie himself possessed thirty-six kinds of transformations, and right there before the steps he showed off his skill — forming the magic signs with his fingers and reciting the spell, he gave a shout of "Grow!", arched his back, and at once grew to a height of eight or nine zhang, looking just like the Way-Opening Spirit himself.,。This so frightened the officials of both ranks that they trembled and shook, and the whole court, ruler and ministers alike, stood dumbstruck and gaping.:「,,,?」:「。At that moment the general in charge of guarding the hall asked, "Elder, growing this tall as you have — surely there must be some limit to how tall you can grow?" That idiot again came out with idiotic words, saying, "It depends on the wind.,;An east wind would still be manageable, a west wind I could also just about handle;,。」:「,。」,,。but if a south wind should rise, I would even punch a great hole clean through the blue sky." The king, greatly alarmed, said, "Put away your magic powers — we now understand well enough what kind of transformation this is." Bajie hunched himself down, and returned once more to his original form, standing in attendance before the steps.

What it’s about
In the Yellow-Robe monster's cave the pilgrims' plight is eased by Princess Baihua Xiu, a daughter of the Precious-Elephant Kingdom stolen thirteen years before and forced to be the demon's wife. Pitying the captive monk, she frees Tripitaka in secret and sends him off with a letter begging her royal parents to rescue her.
Tripitaka carries the letter to the king, who implores the pilgrims to save his daughter, and Bajie and Sha go to challenge the demon at his cave. The fight goes badly: Sha is captured and Bajie flees into the grass, and the abduction the disciples could not prevent they now cannot undo either, deepening the case for recalling Wukong from his mountain.
When it was written 背景
This 回 develops the Yellow-Robe arc into a full court intrigue, with a stolen princess, a smuggled letter and a king's plea, and it is one of the novel's tenderer captivity stories. Learners should follow the letter as the thread that ties cave, palace and battle together. The mounting failures of Bajie and Sha are structural: the book is patiently demonstrating what the party has lost, so that Wukong's eventual return will feel earned rather than merely convenient.
