Sanzang said, "Disciple, why is the road to the Western Heaven so hard to travel??」:「。」:「I remember that since leaving the city of Chang'an, spring has ended and summer come, autumn has waned and winter arrived, for four or five years now on the road—why have we still not arrived?" Hearing this, Xingzhe laughed heartily and said, "Too soon, too soon—we haven't even gotten out the front gate yet." Bajie said, "Brother, don't tell tall tales.?」:「。」:「Is there really such a huge gate in the human world?" Xingzhe said, "Brother, we're still turning about in the main hall." Sha Seng laughed and said, "Elder brother, don't tell big tales to scare me.。」:「。」:「。」:「。」Where would there be such an enormous main hall, and nowhere could one even buy a beam that big."

Hearing this, Bajie said, "Enough, enough—let's just turn around after a while and go back." Xingzhe said, "No need for such nonsense—just follow along behind old Sun."

The elder gave his horse free rein and came straight on, arriving directly outside the monastery gate.:「?」:「。」:「Xingzhe said, "Master, what temple is this one?" Sanzang said, "My horse's hooves have only just stopped, my toes have not even left the stirrups, and you ask me what temple this is—how utterly unreasonable." Xingzhe said, "You, sir, have been a monk since childhood; surely you once studied the Confucian classics before going on to expound the scriptures and the Dharma, being thoroughly versed in letters and principle, and only then received the Tang emperor's gracious favor.?」:「There are such large characters on the gate—how could you not recognize them?" The elder scolded, "You impudent monkey!Your words show no sense.。」:「。」」。I was just now facing west urging on the horse, and was dazzled by the glare of the sun—though there are characters on the gate, they were obscured by dust and grime, so I never saw them." Hearing this, Xingzhe bent at the waist and stretched himself up more than two zhang tall, and with his hand brushed away the dust, saying, "Master, please look." Above were five large characters, reading: "Imperially Founded Baolin Temple.":「?」:「Xingzhe drew back his transformed body and said, "Master, who is going in to ask for lodging at this temple?"

那长老却丢了锡杖,解下斗篷,整衣合掌,径入山门。只见两边红漆栏杆里面,高坐著一对金刚,装塑的威仪恶丑:

:「。」Seeing this, Sanzang nodded and sighed at length, saying, "If in my Land of the East someone were also to mold such great Bodhisattvas of clay and burn incense to worship them, then I, your disciple, would not need to go to the Western Heaven at all." Just as he was sighing, he came to within the second gate of the monastery.He saw the images of the Four Heavenly Kings—Dhrtarastra, Vaisravana, Virudhaka, and Virupaksa—representing, according to east, north, west, and south, the meaning of favorable wind and timely rain.Passing through the second gate, he further saw four tall pine trees, each one with a lush green canopy spreading out like the shape of an umbrella.Suddenly raising his head, he found before him the Mahavira Hall.The elder pressed his palms together in reverent submission and stretched out his body to bow down.Having finished bowing, he rose, went around the Buddha's altar, and came beneath the rear door.There he further saw an image, facing the rear, of Guanyin universally ferrying beings across from the Southern Sea.On the wall were all shrimp, fish, crabs, and turtles molded by skilled craftsmen, showing their heads and tails, leaping and playing in the surging waves of the sea.:「The elder nodded his head several times more, and with countless sighs of deep feeling said, "How pitiful!?」Even scaly and armored creatures all worship the Buddha—why is it that human beings are unwilling to cultivate themselves?"

正赞叹间,又见三门里走出一个道人。那道人忽见三藏相貌稀奇,丰姿非俗,急趋步上前施礼道:「师父那里来的?」三藏道:「弟子是东土大唐驾下差来,上西天拜佛求经的。今到宝方,天色将晚,告借一宿。」那道人道:「师父莫怪,我做不得主,我是这里扫地、撞钟、打勤劳的道人。里面还有个管家的老师父哩,待我进去禀他一声。他若留你,我就出来奉请;若不留你,我却不敢羁迟。」三藏道:「累及你了。」

:「。」:「?」:「?」The attendant hurried to the abbot's quarters and reported, "My lord, someone has come outside." The monk-official at once rose, changed his robes, straightened his Vairocana hat, put on his cassock, and hurriedly opened the door to receive the guest, asking the attendant, "Where has this person come from?" The attendant pointed with his hand and said, "Isn't that a person behind the main hall there?" There was Sanzang, his head bare, wearing a twenty-five-strip Dharma robe, his feet in a pair of mud-dragging monk's shoes, leaning at a slant by the rear door.:「Seeing this, the monk-official grew greatly angry and said, "You attendant, you deserve a beating!Don't you know that I am the monastery's official, and that I only come out to receive gentlemen and officials from the city who come to burn incense?For a monk like this, why did you exaggerate falsely and report to me to go receive him?Look at his face—he's no honest man, most likely some wandering monk from the roads, and since it's late today, he probably wants to borrow lodging.How could we let him disturb our abbot's quarters??」Just tell him to squat under the front corridor and be done with it—why report it to me?" And he turned and withdrew.

那道人急到方丈报道:「老爷,外面有个人来了。」那僧官即起身,换了衣服,按一按毘卢帽,披上袈裟,急开门迎接,问道人:「那里人来?」道人用手指定道:「那正殿后边不是一个人?」那三藏光著一个头,穿一领二十五条达摩衣,足下登一双拖泥带水的达公鞋,斜倚在那后门首。僧官见了,大怒道:「道人少打!你岂不知我是僧官,但只有城上来的士夫降香,我方出来迎接?这等个和尚,你怎么多虚少实,报我接他?看他那嘴脸,不是个诚实的,多是云游方上僧,今日天晚,想是要来借宿。我们方丈中,岂容他打搅?教他往前廊下蹲罢了,报我怎么?」抽身转去。

:「Hearing this, the elder's eyes filled with tears, and he said, "How pitiful, how pitiful!This is truly what is meant by 'a man away from home is held cheap.'I, your disciple, left the household since childhood and became a monk; I have never performed penances while secretly eating meat and harboring evil thoughts, nor read the scriptures while nursing anger that ruins the meditative mind;nor have I ever thrown tiles or bricks to damage a Buddha hall, or scraped the real gold from an Arhat's face.Ah!How pitiful!。──I know not in which former life I offended Heaven and Earth, that in this life I should so often meet with unkind people.—Monk, if you will not give us lodging, so be it, but why say such worthless words, telling us to go squat under the front corridor?。」:「It is just as well not to tell this to Xingzhe—if I did, that monkey would come in and give you such a beating with his iron staff that he'd smash your ankle bones to pieces." The elder said, "Well, so be it, so be it.:『。』?」As the common saying goes, 'In dealing with people, courtesy comes first.' Let me go in and ask him once more, and see what his intentions are."

The master retraced his steps and followed him in through the door of the abbot's quarters.There he saw the monk-official, having taken off his robes, sitting there fuming with anger; it was unclear whether he was reciting scriptures or writing up ritual documents for some family, and on the desk lay a pile of papers.:「。」:「?」:「Tang Seng dared not go in too far, and stood in the courtyard, bowing and calling out loudly, "Venerable abbot, this disciple pays his respects." The monk showed some impatience at his coming further inside, and returned the greeting half-heartedly, saying, "Where have you come from?" Sanzang said, "This disciple has been sent by decree of the Great Tang of the Eastern Land to go to the Western Heaven to worship the Living Buddha and seek the scriptures.Passing through your esteemed place, with the sky growing dark, I beg to borrow lodging for one night, and will set off again tomorrow before it is even fully light.。」:「?」:「。」:「?」:「。」:「I earnestly hope the venerable abbot will grant this small favor." Only then did the monk-official rise halfway and say, "Are you that Tang Sanzang?" Sanzang said, "I would not presume—this disciple is indeed he." The monk-official said, "If you are going to the Western Heaven to fetch scriptures, how is it you don't even know the way?" Sanzang said, "This disciple has never before traveled the roads of your honored region." He said, "Due west from here, only some four or five li away, there is a place called Thirty-Li Inn, where there are households selling meals—convenient and good for lodging.。」:「:『。』?」:「。」:「?」:「:『It is inconvenient here—I cannot properly keep monks who have traveled so far as you." Sanzang pressed his palms together and said, "Abbot, the ancients had a saying: 'Nunneries, temples, and monasteries are all the inns of we wandering monks; the mere sight of a monastery gate entitles one to three sheng of rice.' Why then will you not keep me—what is the reason for this?" The monk-official cried out angrily, "You wandering monk, you do have a way of talking with a slick and oily tongue." Sanzang said, "What do you mean by 'slick and oily tongue'?" The monk-official said, "The ancients said: 'When a tiger enters the city, every household shuts its doors.。』」:「』?」:「Even though it bites no one, its reputation was ruined long before.'" Sanzang said, "How is it that 'its reputation was ruined long before'?" He said, "In years past there were several wandering monks who came and sat down at our monastery gate.Seeing how poor and thin-clad they were, each with torn clothes and no shoes, bare-headed and bare-footed, I pitied their ragged state and hastily invited them into the abbot's quarters, seated them as guests of honor, treated them to vegetarian meals, and even lent each of them an old garment, and let them stay for a few days.Who could have known that, coveting the comfort of food and clothing, they never once thought of leaving, and ended up staying seven or eight years.。」:「?」:「Their staying would have been bad enough, but they went on to do all sorts of improper things besides." Sanzang said, "What sort of improper things?" The monk-official said, "Listen to me:

:「Hearing these words, Sanzang thought secretly to himself, "How pitiful!?」Am I, your disciple, the sort of spineless monk he describes?"

Tang Seng said, "They did not beat me." Bajie said, "They must have beaten you;?」:「?」:「。」:「if not, why is there still a hint of crying in your voice?" Xingzhe said, "Did they curse you?" Tang Seng said, "They did not curse me either." Xingzhe said, "If they neither beat nor cursed you, why are you so distressed??」:「。」:「?」:「。」:「Could it be you're homesick?" Tang Seng said, "Disciple, it's just that things are not convenient for us here." Xingzhe laughed and said, "This must be a place of Daoist priests?" Tang Seng said angrily, "It is Daoist shrines that have priests—this is a Buddhist temple, and there are only monks here." Xingzhe said, "You're just no good at this.As long as they're monks, they're the same kind as us.:『。』。」As the saying goes: 'All who gather beneath the Buddha's banner are people bound by karmic affinity.' You just sit down and rest, and let me go in and take a look."

The attendant said, "Master, if you yourself know it's this heavy, why do you tell me to go out and take some sample beating?" And so they fell to quarreling among themselves inside.

行者听见道:「是也禁不得,假若就一棍打杀一个,我师父又怪我行凶了。且等我另寻一个甚么打与你看看。」忽抬头,只见方丈门外有一个石狮子,却就举起棍来,乒乓一下,打得粉乱麻碎。那和尚在窗眼儿里看见,就吓得骨软觔麻,慌忙往床下拱;道人就往锅门里钻,口中不住叫:「爷爷,棍重,棍重,禁不得,方便,方便!」行者道:「和尚,我不打你。我问你:这寺里有多少和尚?」僧官战索索的道:「前后是二百八十五房头,共有五百个有度牒的和尚。」行者道:「你快去把那五百个和尚都点得齐齐整整,穿了长衣服出去,把我那唐朝的师父接进来,就不打你了。」僧官道:「爷爷,若是不打,便抬也抬进来。」行者道:「趁早去。」僧官叫道人:「你莫说吓破了胆,就是吓破了心,便也去与我叫这些人来,接唐僧老爷爷来。」

The attendant, having no other choice, risked his very life, not daring to go through the door, and crawled out instead through a dog-hole in the back, going straight to the main hall, where he beat the drum on the east side and struck the bell on the west.:「?」:「。」As the bell and drum sounded together, they startled the monks great and small in the two side corridors, who came up to the hall and asked, "It's still early, not yet evening—why strike the bell and beat the drum?" The attendant said, "Quickly change your robes, and follow the old master in ranks out through the monastery gate, to receive the venerable lord who has come from the Tang court." The monks then truly formed up in proper, orderly ranks and went out the gate to receive him.Some wore their cassocks;some put on their slant-collared robes;those with nothing else wore a bell-shaped straight robe;and those who were extremely poor and had no long robe simply joined two waist-aprons together and draped them over their bodies.:「?」:「Seeing this, Xingzhe said, "Monk, what sort of garment is that you're wearing?" The monk, seeing how fierce and ugly he looked, said, "Grandfather, don't beat me, let me explain.。」This is cloth we begged for in the city; there's no tailor here, so we made it ourselves—it's called a 'wrap-up-poverty.'"

那道人没奈何,舍了性命,不敢撞门,从后边狗洞里钻将出去,径到正殿上,东边打鼓,西边撞钟。钟鼓一齐响处,惊动了两廊大小僧众,上殿问道:「这早还不晚哩,撞钟打鼓做甚?」道人说:「快换衣服,随老师父排班,出山门外,迎接唐朝来的老爷。」那众和尚真个齐齐整整,摆班出门迎接。有的披了袈裟;有的著了偏衫;无的穿著个一口钟直裰;十分穷的,没有长衣服,就把腰裙接起两条披在身上。行者看见道:「和尚,你穿的是甚么衣服?」和尚见他丑恶,道:「爷爷,不要打,等我说。这是我们城中化的布,此间没有裁缝,是自家做的个一裹穷。」

Hearing this, Xingzhe secretly laughed, and herding the monks along, brought them out of the monastery gate to kneel down.:「。」:「The monk-official kowtowed and called out loudly, "Venerable Lord Tang, please come sit in the abbot's quarters." Seeing this, Bajie said, "Master, you're really no good at this—when you went in, your eyes were brimming with tears and your mouth was hanging down as if an oil jug hung from it.?」:「How did elder brother manage such clever wit, to make them come kowtowing to receive us?" Sanzang said, "You idiot, you know nothing of propriety at all.:『。』」:「。」:「。」:「。」:「As the saying goes, 'Even ghosts fear a fierce man.'" Seeing them kowtowing and bowing, Tang Seng felt quite uneasy, and stepped forward calling, "All of you, please rise." The monks kowtowed and said, "My lord, if you would just say a word of mercy to your disciple and keep him from swinging that club, we would gladly kneel for a whole month." Tang Seng called out, "Wukong, do not beat them." Xingzhe said, "I never beat them;。」if I had, by now their very roots would already be broken off." Only then did the monks rise, some leading the horse, some carrying the loads, some bearing Tang Seng on a litter, some carrying Bajie, some supporting Sha Seng by the arm, and together they all went in through the monastery gate, on to the abbot's quarters at the back, where they took their seats in proper order.

唐僧举步出门小解,只见明月当天,叫:「徒弟。」行者、八戒、沙僧都出来侍立。因感这月清光皎洁,玉宇深沉,真是一轮高照,大地分明。对月怀归,口占一首古风长篇。诗云:

:「Hearing this, Wukong stepped forward and answered, "Master, ah, you know only that the moonlight is bright and radiant, and your heart longs for your native home, but you do not know the deeper meaning of the moon — it is the very rule and pattern of the innate images of Heaven.』。When the moon reaches the thirtieth day, the gold of the yang-soul is entirely dispersed, and the water of the yin-spirit fills the whole disk, so it is purely dark and without light — this is called 'the dark of the moon.'At this time it intersects with the sun, and in the two days between the 'dark' and the 'new moon,' it is stirred by the sun's light and becomes pregnant with it.』。By the third day one yang appears, and by the eighth day a second yang is born; within the spirit-substance the soul is now half-present, level as a stretched cord, so it is called the 'first quarter.'』。By the fifteenth day, the three yangs are fully complete, and thus it becomes round and whole — this is called the 'full moon.'』。By the sixteenth day one yin is born, and by the twenty-second day a second yin is born; at this time within the soul the spirit-substance is half-present, level as a stretched cord, so it is called the 'last quarter.'』。By the thirtieth day the three yins are fully complete, and it likewise reaches 'the dark of the moon' again.This is the meaning of gathering and refining the innate essence.If we can gently nurture the 'two eights' and complete the 'nine nines,' then at that time, seeing the Buddha will be easy, and returning to our original field will likewise be easy."The poem said:

What it’s about

The road brings the pilgrims to the Precious-Wood Chan Monastery, where an arrogant abbot turns the shabby monk away until Wukong frightens the monks into hospitality. Lodged at last for the night, Tripitaka sits alone in the courtyard under a brilliant autumn moon and composes verses on his homesickness and the long road still ahead of him.

Wukong, Bajie and Sha join him, and the disciples cap his moon-poem each in his own voice, Wukong reading the moon as an emblem of the enlightened mind waxing to its fullness. The chapter is a quiet interlude of poetry and rest set between two dangers, letting the characters speak as themselves rather than fight, just before the ghost-king's trouble arrives in the depth of the night.

When it was written 背景

This 回 is one of the novel's lyrical breathing-spaces, built around a shared moon-gazing poem rather than a battle, and it shows the book's Chan-Buddhist layer directly: the full moon as the mind's own clear nature. Learners more used to the fight scenes should slow down here for the verse and the banter between master and disciples. The calm is deliberate staging, for that very night Tripitaka's dream will open the Wuji Kingdom mystery in the rooms where they sleep.
