As he was pondering in doubt, he saw outside the city gate a stretch of open sandy ground, where a great crowd of monks was gathered together, hauling a cart.,「」,。It turned out they were all crying out together in a work chant, shouting in unison, "Great Strength King Bodhisattva!"—and it was this that had startled Tang Seng.

The Daoists returned the bow and said, "Master, where do you come from?" Xingzhe said, "This disciple wanders the corners of the sea, drifts to the ends of the earth.,。Today I have come to this place, hoping to beg alms from good families.:?May I ask you two reverend sirs: which street in this city favors the Dao??Which lane esteems the worthy?。」:「,?」:「?」:「,?」:「,,?」:「,。This poor priest would like to go there to beg a meal." The Daoist laughed and said, "Master, why do you say such a dispiriting thing?" Xingzhe said, "How is it dispiriting?" The Daoist said, "You wish to beg a meal—is that not a poor prospect?" Xingzhe said, "One who has left the household relies on begging for a living; if I do not beg for food, how could I have money to buy any?" The Daoist laughed and said, "You are from far away, and do not know the affairs of this city of ours.,,,,,。」In this city of ours, let alone that the civil and military officials favor the Dao, and the wealthy elders love the worthy, and that men and women both young and old, upon seeing us, bow and invite us to receive offerings—that hardly needs mentioning at all—but first and foremost, His Majesty the King himself favors the Dao and loves the worthy."

:「,,。Xingzhe said, "This poor priest is, first, young in years, and second, newly arrived from afar, and truly does not know of this.,,,。」:「。Might I trouble you two reverend sirs to tell me in detail the name of this place, and the story of how the King favors the Dao and loves the worthy—that would truly show the fellowship between us as brothers of the same faith." The Daoist said, "This city is called Cheche Kingdom.。」,:「?」:「。The King upon the jeweled throne is related to us by kinship." Hearing this, Xingzhe laughed heartily and said, "I suppose some Daoist has become the emperor?" He said, "No.,,,,,,,。It is only that twenty years ago, the people suffered a great drought—not a drop of rain fell from the sky, and the grain seedlings in the earth all withered—and regardless of ruler or subject, commoner or noble, great household or small, every family bathed and burned incense, every household bowed to Heaven begging for rain.,,。」:「?」:「。」:「?」:「,,。」:「?」:「,;Just when all were hanging upside down, at the very brink of death, suddenly three Immortal Elders descended from Heaven to save the living creatures below." Xingzhe asked, "Who were these three Immortal Elders?" The Daoist said, "They are none other than our own masters." Xingzhe said, "What are your honored masters' titles?" The Daoist said, "My eldest master is titled Tiger-Strength Great Immortal, my second master Deer-Strength Great Immortal, and my third master Sheep-Strength Great Immortal." Xingzhe asked, "How much magical power do these three honored masters have?" The Daoist said, "My masters can summon wind and call rain merely by turning over a palm;,,。they can point at water and turn it to oil, touch stone and turn it to gold, and it is as easy to them as turning around.,,,,。」Because they possess such power, able to seize the very workings of Heaven and Earth and shift the hidden mechanisms of the stars, the ruler and his ministers hold them in the highest respect, and so they became related to us by marriage."

The Daoist laughed and said, "If you wish to see my masters, what difficulty could there be?,,『』,,,。」:「,。」:「,,,。」:「,,?」:「,,。」:「,,,?」:「。We two are his disciples closest to his heart and flesh, and besides, our master favors the Dao and loves the worthy—no sooner does he hear the single word 'Dao' spoken than he comes out to greet the guest even at the main gate; if we two were to introduce you in, it would be as easy as blowing away ash." Xingzhe made a deep bow and said, "Many thanks for your recommendation—let us go in at once, then." The Daoist said, "Wait a little while yet. Sit here, and let us two finish our official business, and then we will go in with you." Xingzhe said, "One who has left the household is bound by nothing and free and unfettered—what official business could you have?" The Daoist pointed his hand at the monks on the sandy flat: "Those men are doing work for our household; fearing they might shirk and idle, we are going over to call their roll, and will be right back." Xingzhe laughed and said, "Reverend sirs, you are mistaken. Both monks and Daoists alike are people who have left their households—why should they do labor in our stead, and submit to our roll call?" The Daoist said, "You do not know.,,,。Long ago, at the time of praying for rain, the monks prayed to the Buddha on one side, and the Daoists reported to the Dipper on the other, and both sides drew rations from the court.,,。Who would have known that the monks were useless, chanting their sutras in vain, unable to accomplish anything?,,。Later, as soon as my master arrived, he summoned rain and called wind, and delivered the myriad people from their suffering.,,,,,,,。This so enraged the court against the monks, saying that they were useless, that their temple gates were torn down, their Buddha images destroyed, their ordination certificates confiscated, and they were not allowed to return home, but were bestowed by imperial decree upon our household to do labor, treated just like servant boys.,,。In my household, the one who tends the fire is one of them, the one who sweeps the floor is one of them, and the one who guards the gate is one of them too.,,,,。Because there is still housing to be built at the back, not yet completed, these monks are made to haul brick and tile, drag timber, and raise up the buildings.,,。」We fear only that they may be lazy and shirk their work and refuse to pull the cart, and so we two are going to check on them and take a count."

行者道:「这皇帝十分造化。常言道:『术动公卿。』老师父有这般手段,结了亲,其实不亏他。噫!不知我贫道可有星星缘法,得见那老师父一面哩?」道士笑曰:「你要见我师父,有何难处?我两个是他靠胸贴肉的徒弟,我师父却又好道爱贤,只听见说个『道』字,就也接出大门,若是我两个引进你,乃吹灰之力。」行者深深的唱个大喏道:「多承举荐,就此进去罢。」道士说:「且少待片时,你在这里坐下,等我两个把公事干了来,和你进去。」行者道:「出家人无拘无束,自由自在,有甚公事?」道士用手指定那沙滩上僧人:「他做的是我家生活,恐他躲懒,我们去点他一卯就来。」行者笑道:「道长差了,僧道之辈都是出家人,为何他替我们做活,伏我们点卯?」道士云:「你不知道。因当年求雨之时,僧人在一边拜佛,道士在一边告斗,都请朝廷的粮食。谁知那和尚不中用,空念空经,不能济事。后来我师父一到,唤雨呼风,拔济了万民涂炭。却才发恼了朝廷,说那和尚无用,拆了他的山门,毁了他的佛像,追了他的度牒,不放他回乡,御赐与我们家做活,就当小厮一般。我家里烧火的也是他,扫地的也是他,顶门的也是他。因为后边还有住房,未曾完备,著这和尚来拽砖瓦,拖木植,起盖房宇。只恐他贪顽躲懒,不肯拽车,所以著我两个去查点查点。」
,:「,,。」:「?」:「,,。」:「?」:「,,。Hearing this, Xingzhe took hold of the Daoist's sleeve and said with tears falling, "I say I have no such fortune—truly I have no such fortune, that I cannot see my honored master's face." The Daoist said, "How is it you cannot see him?" Xingzhe said, "This poor priest wanders the corners of the earth, first for the sake of my own life and livelihood, and second also in search of a kinsman." The Daoist asked, "What kinsman do you have?" Xingzhe said, "I have an uncle who, since childhood, left home and shaved his head to become a monk.,。In years past, when there was famine, he too came out to beg in the world beyond.,,。For these several years he has not returned home, and mindful of the kindness of our ancestors, I have come especially, taking the chance, to search for him.,,。I suspect he may be detained and delayed in some such place as this, unable to free himself—though I cannot be sure.,,。」:「。However I manage to find him and see him just once, only then can I go into the city with you." The Daoist said, "Why, that is easy enough.,,,。Let the two of us sit here, and might I trouble you to go over to the sandbank in our stead and take the roll—there should be five hundred men in the headcount, no more—and see among them which one is your honored uncle.,,,?」If indeed he is there, then out of regard for our fellowship in the faith, we shall let him go—and then you can come into the city with us. How would that be?"

,,,,。Xingzhe thanked him profusely, made a deep bow, took his leave of the Daoist, and, beating his fisherman's drum, went straight to the sandy flat.,,:「,,,。」,:「,。Passing through the double pass, he came down through the narrow ridge path, and the monks all fell to their knees at once, kowtowing and saying, "Grandfather, we have not been idle in the least—all five hundred, not one missing, are here pulling the cart."

Xingzhe waved his hand and said, "Do not kneel, do not be afraid.,。」,,,,。I am not here to oversee your work—I have come here to search for a kinsman." When the monks heard him speak of searching for a kinsman, they crowded around him in a circle, each pushing forward to show his face, clearing his throat and coughing loudly, every one hoping desperately to be the one recognized.:「。」,。They said, "We don't know which of us might be his kinsman." Xingzhe looked them over for a while, and then burst out laughing.:「,?」:「?The monks said, "Old master, you have not recognized any kinsman—why then do you laugh?" Xingzhe said, "Do you know what I am laughing at?。I am laughing that you monks are all so ill-favored.,,,,。When your parents gave birth to you, it was because your fate was cursed under the Canopy Star, bringing harm to father or mother, or because you would not get along with brothers and sisters, that they gave you up entirely and sent you into the monkhood.,,,,?」:「,。Why then do you not honor the Three Jewels, nor revere the Buddha's Law, nor go to read the sutras and perform penances, but instead work as hired labor for Daoists, made to serve as slaves and servants?" The monks said, "Old master, you have come to shame us.,。」:「,。」Your reverence must be from outside these parts, and does not know how things stand here." Xingzhe said, "Indeed I am from outside, and truly do not know what dangers there are here."

Xingzhe said, "There must be some other clever art those Daoists possess, to have so beguiled the King;,,?」:「、、、;for if it were only summoning wind and calling rain, that is merely a minor art of the side gates—how could that alone move the King's heart?" The monks said, "They know how to knead sand and refine mercury, to sit in meditation and preserve the spirit, to point at water and turn it to oil, to touch stone and turn it to gold;,,:。」and now they are raising a great Sanqing temple hall, where day and night they read scriptures and perform penances before Heaven and Earth, praying that the King may live ten thousand years without growing old—and so they have bewitched and moved the King's heart."

,:「,。」,,,,。Hearing this, Xingzhe laughed to himself inwardly: "Don't say that old Monkey has no skill—the divine ones have already spread my fame in advance." He quickly took his leave, and beating his fisherman's drum, parted from the monks and went straight to the city gate, where he met the Daoists again.:「,?」:「。」:「?」:「,,,,。The Daoists came to meet him and said, "Master, which one is your kinsman?" Xingzhe said, "All five hundred of them are kin to me." The two Daoists laughed and said, "How can you possibly have so many kinsmen?" Xingzhe said, "One hundred are my neighbors to the left, one hundred are my neighbors to the right, one hundred belong to my father's clan, one hundred belong to my mother's clan, and one hundred are my sworn friends.,;If you are willing to release all five hundred of them, I will go in with you;,。」:「,。if you will not release them, then I shall not go." The Daoist said, "I think you must have some fit of madness, to be talking such nonsense all of a sudden.,,,,,?Those monks were bestowed by imperial decree of the King himself; even to release one or two of them, we would first have to file a report of illness with our master, and then follow it up with a death certificate, before the matter could be settled—how then could you speak of releasing them all?,。This makes no sense at all, none at all.,。Not to mention that our household would then have no one to command—even the court itself would hold him to blame.,,?」:「?」:「!」,,,,,,。The local elder might send an official to investigate, or at times the royal carriage itself might come in person to check the roll—how then would we dare release them?" Xingzhe said, "You will not release them?" The Daoist said, "I will not!" Xingzhe asked three times in a row, and then flew into a rage; he drew the iron rod from his ear, twirled it once against the wind until it grew as thick as a rice bowl, gave it a shake, and swung it straight across the Daoist's face.,。Alas, with that blow his head was broken and streaming with blood, his body fell to the ground, his skin split open, his neck was broken, and his brains spilled out.

,,,,,。The Great Sage went straight to the sandy flat, and using his divine power, pulled the cart over both passes and through the narrow ridge path, then lifted it up and dashed it to pieces.、,。He flung all the bricks and timber down the slope.:「,。He shouted at the monks: "Scatter, don't stay near my hands and feet.,。」:「!Wait until I see the emperor tomorrow, and I'll destroy those Daoist priests." The monks said, "Grandfather!,,,。」:「,。」,,,。We dare not flee far, but we fear that if the officials catch us and bring us back, we'll again be forced to pay ransom money, bringing more disaster upon ourselves." Wukong said, "In that case, I'll give you a spell to protect yourselves." The splendid Great Sage plucked a handful of hairs, chewed them into fine bits, and gave each monk a piece.:「,,。He told them all: "Pinch it under the nail of your ring finger, clench your fist, and just go on your way.;If no one dares to seize you, that's fine;,,,。」:「,,,,?」:「,,。」,,:「!」,,,。but if someone does seize you, clench your fist tight and cry out 'Great Sage Equaling Heaven,' and I will come to protect you." The monks said, "Grandfather, what if we go far away, out of your sight, and you don't answer our call — what then?" Wukong said, "Just set your mind at ease. Even at ten thousand miles' distance, I can keep you entirely safe." Among the monks, one bold enough clenched his fist and quietly called out, "Great Sage Equaling Heaven!" and at once a Thunder God appeared standing before him, iron cudgel in hand — not even a thousand troops and ten thousand horses could get near him.,。At that moment several hundred of them called out together, and there were fully several hundred Great Sages standing guard.:「,。」:「『』,。」「」,。The monks kowtowed and said, "Grandfather, it truly works wonders!" Wukong further instructed them: "Call out the word 'Still,' and I'll take it back." Sure enough, when they called out "Still," it was once again just a hair tucked in the crease of their fingernail.,。Only then, overjoyed at having a way to save their lives, did the monks all scatter together.:「,,,。」,,,,。Wukong said, "Don't flee too far — listen for news from me in the city. As soon as a notice recruiting monks is posted, come into the city and return my hairs to me." The five hundred monks, some going east, some going west, some walking, some standing, scattered in all directions; no more of them for now.

The splendid Great Sage formed a hand seal, recited a spell, drew a breath from the southeast direction, and blew it out with a puff — instantly a fierce gust of wind swept straight into the Sanqing Hall, knocking over the flower vases, candlesticks, and the merit banners hanging on the four walls all at once, so that the lamps and candles went dark.。The Daoist priests were struck with fear, their hearts pounding.:「。The Immortal Tiger Strength said, "Disciples, let us disperse for now.,。This gust of divine wind that just passed has blown out the lamps, candles, incense, and flowers.,,。」。Each of you return to your beds, and rise early tomorrow morning to chant a few more scrolls of scripture to make up the count." The Daoist priests accordingly withdrew, each to his own quarters.

!Ah!。Such things do happen.,:「,,。」:「,。」,,。It so happened that a young Daoist under the east corridor had just lain down to sleep when he suddenly got up, saying, "I forgot my hand bell in the hall — if it's lost, tomorrow my master will scold me." He said to the one sleeping beside him, "You go on sleeping, I'll go look for it." In his haste he didn't put on his underclothes, but merely threw on a long robe, and went straight to the main hall to search for the bell.,。Feeling about here and there, he found the bell.,。Just as he was about to turn back, he suddenly heard the sound of breathing.,,,,。Frightened, the priest quickly hurried toward the door, but somehow he stepped on a lychee pit and slipped, falling with a thud.,。With a clang, the bell shattered to pieces in the fall.。Zhu Bajie could not hold back and burst out laughing.,,,,:「,,。」,:「?」:「,,,。」,:「,?」,,,,。The fright scared three of the young priest's souls clean out of him and sent his seven spirits reeling; stumbling at every step, he rushed to outside the abbot's chamber, pounded on the door, and cried, "Grand-master, something's wrong, disaster's struck!" The three old priests had not yet gone to sleep, and at once opened the door to ask, "What disaster?" Trembling all over, he said, "Disciple lost his hand bell, and went to the hall to look for it, when suddenly I heard someone laughing loudly — it nearly scared me to death." Upon hearing this, the old priest at once called out, "Bring lamps! Let's see what evil thing this is!" At this single command, the priests of the two corridors were roused, and old and young alike scrambled up to light lamps and torches, and went to look at the main hall.

噫!有这般事。原来那东廊下有一个小道士才睡下,忽然起来道:「我的手铃儿忘记在殿上,若失落了,明日师父见责。」与那同睡者道:「你睡著,等我寻去。」急忙中不穿底衣,止扯一领直裰,径到正殿中寻铃。摸来摸去,铃儿摸著了。正欲回头,只听得有呼吸之声。道士害怕,急拽步往外走时,不知怎的,屣著一个荔枝核子,扑的滑了一跌。当的一声,把个铃儿跌得粉碎。猪八戒忍不住呵呵大笑出来。把个小道士諕走了三魂,惊回了七魄,一步一跌,撞到那方丈外,打著门叫:「师公,不好了,祸事了。」三个老道士还未曾睡,即开门问:「有甚祸事?」他战战兢兢道:「弟子忘失了手铃儿,因去殿上寻铃,只听得有人呵呵大笑,险些儿諕杀我也。」老道士闻言,即叫:「掌灯来,看是甚么邪物?」一声传令,惊动那两廊的道士,大大小小,都爬起来点灯著火,往正殿上观看。

What it’s about
The travelers enter the Cart-Slow Kingdom and hear the cries of Buddhist monks forced to haul timber under brutal Daoist overseers. Wukong learns that three royal preceptors—Tiger-Power, Deer-Power and Antelope-Power Immortals—won the king's favor by bringing rain during a drought, then persuaded him to suppress Buddhism. He frees the laborers, gives them courage by announcing Tripitaka's arrival, and sends the overseers fleeing after a comic beating.
That night Wukong, Bajie and Sha Wujing enter the Three Pure Ones Temple, where the three preceptors are holding a grand offering. The disciples eat the food laid before the statues, throw the images into a privy, and take their places in disguise upon the altar. When the returning Daoists discover that their offerings have vanished, they assume the gods themselves consumed them and beg the silent counterfeit deities for a revelation.
When it was written 背景
This 回 opens the Cart-Slow Kingdom sequence, an extended satire of religious rivalry in which court patronage has made one tradition powerful enough to persecute another. The suffering monks establish real stakes before the disciples answer solemn oppression with temple farce. Learners should distinguish the three animal spirits behind their grand titles and notice that their ability to summon rain is genuine, even though their moral authority is not. The chapter therefore asks readers to judge religious figures by conduct rather than by costume, official favor or spectacular technique.
