048Chapter 48

，、，，；The tale tells how the faithful of Chen Family Village, hauling pig, sheep, and sacrificial wine along with Wukong and Bajie, amid much noisy clamor, carried everything straight to the Numinous Response Temple and laid it all out;。they set the boy and girl in the seat of honor.，，「」，。Turning his head, Wukong saw on the offering table incense, flowers, and candles, and directly opposite a spirit tablet in gold characters reading "The Deity Great King of Numinous Response," with no other image of a god present.，：「，，，，，、，，。When the faithful had arranged everything properly, they all bowed their heads toward it together and said, "Great King, grandfather, on this very year, this very month, this very day, this very hour, the sacrificial hosts of Chen Family Village, Chen Cheng and the rest of the faithful, being of unequal age, reverently follow the yearly custom and offer up a boy, Chen Guanbao, and a girl, Chen Yichengjin, along with the pig and sheep and sacrificial wine in full measure, for the Great King's enjoyment.，。」，，。May you grant favorable wind and rain, and a bountiful harvest of the five grains." When the prayer was finished, they burned the paper horses and each returned to their own home, and we need say no more of that.

，，：「，？From among the water tribe there stepped forward a mottled-robed mandarin-fish granny, who bowed repeatedly to the monster and said with a smile, "If the Great King wishes to capture Tang Monk, what difficulty is there in that?，？」：「，，，，。」：「，，？」：「。」：「，？」：「。」：「，，。」：「，。」：「，，，，，。Only I don't know—if I help catch him, will you reward me with some wine and meat?" The monster said, "If you have a scheme, and we join forces, and we catch Tang Monk, I will bow to you as sworn sister, and we shall share the feast together at one table." The mandarin-fish granny bowed in thanks and said, "I have long known that the Great King possesses the divine power to summon wind and call rain, the might to stir up seas and overturn rivers—I wonder, can you also bring down snow?" The monster said, "I can." She continued, "Since you can bring down snow, I wonder, can you also make it cold enough to freeze into ice?" The monster said, "Even more so." The mandarin-fish granny clapped her hands and laughed, "In that case, it's very easy, very easy." The monster said, "Tell me of this very easy plan of yours, and let me hear it." The granny said, "Tonight, in the third watch, Great King, you need not hesitate—act your magic early: raise a spell of cold wind, send down a heavy snow, and freeze the entire Tongtian River solid.，，，，，。Have those of us skilled at transformation change into several human shapes, to be at the crossroads, carrying packs and umbrellas on our backs, bearing loads and pushing carts, walking ceaselessly across the ice.，，。Tang Monk, being so anxious in his heart to fetch the scriptures, on seeing people traveling like this, will surely resolve to cross by treading the ice.，，，，。」，：「，。」，，，。Great King, sit quietly at the heart of the river, and wait until the sound of his footsteps is heard—then burst the cold ice apart, and his disciples along with him will all fall together into the water, and with one stroke you shall have your prize." On hearing this the monster was filled with joy and said, "Excellent, excellent." It at once left its water palace, trod the vast sky, stirred up wind and raised snow, and froze the cold into solid ice; no more of that for now.

He said, "Wukong, go quickly back to the benefactor's house and pack up our bags, and saddle up the horse—while this layer of ice holds, let us hurry on toward the West."

，，：「，。」：「。Taking leave of old Chen and departing from the riverbank, they had gone some three or four li when Bajie handed the nine-ringed monk's staff to Tang Seng, saying, "Master, hold this crosswise on your horse." Wukong said, "This idiot is being crafty.，？」：「，。The staff was originally yours to carry — why now ask the master to hold it?" Bajie said, "You have never walked on river ice before, so you wouldn't know.，；Wherever there is ice frozen over, there are bound to be thin spots — ice-eyes, as they're called;，，，，，？and should one step on such an ice-eye and fall through, if there is nothing held crosswise, one will plunge straight down into the water, and it will be just like a great pot lid clamped shut overhead — how then could one climb back up?。」：「。」：，，，，，。One must brace oneself this way to be safe." Wukong laughed inwardly, thinking, "This idiot turns out to be quite the seasoned ice-walker." Sure enough, they all did as he said: the elder held the monk's staff crosswise, Wukong held his iron rod crosswise, Sha Seng held his demon-quelling staff crosswise, Bajie carried the luggage on his shoulder with his rake slung crosswise at his waist, and master and disciples advanced with their minds at ease.，。They went on straight until nightfall, and ate some of the dry provisions.，，，，，。Yet they dared not linger long, and by the light of the stars and moon, seeing the ice gleaming bright and white all around, they simply pressed on with all their strength, so that truly the horse never once paused its hooves.，。Master and disciples could not close their eyes, and walked the whole night through.，。At dawn they ate a little more of the dry provisions, and pressed on westward again.

，，：「？」：「，，。」：「？『。』，，。The evil spirit seized Sanzang and led his host of spirits straight back to his watery palace, calling out loudly, "Sister Gui, where are you?" Old Granny Gui came out to greet him with a bow, saying, "Great King, I dare not, I dare not." The evil spirit said, "Worthy sister, why do you say such a thing? 'Once a word is spoken, four horses cannot overtake it.' I did say I would follow your plan, capture Tang Seng, and become sworn siblings with you.，，？」：「，，，，；Now that the fine plan has indeed succeeded and Tang Seng is captured, would it be right to go back on my earlier word?" He then ordered, "Underlings, bring out the table, and sharpen the knives well — cut open this monk's belly and dig out his heart, strip off his skin and slice his flesh;：，。」：「，，。on one side let the music sound: I shall share him with my worthy sister, that we may prolong our lives and gain long life." Granny Gui said, "Great King, do not eat him just yet — I fear his disciples will come searching and stir up trouble.，，，，，，，，？」，，。Better to bear with patience for a couple of days; once that fellow gives up searching and does not come, then cut him open, invite the Great King to the seat of honor, with all the kinsfolk arrayed around, playing music, singing and dancing, and present him to the Great King, so that he may enjoy him at leisure and in comfort — would that not be better?" The demon agreed to this, and hid Tang Seng behind the palace, covering him in the middle with a stone coffin six feet long, and we shall speak no more of that for now.

、，，，，。Now to speak of Bajie and Sha Seng, who fished the luggage out of the water and loaded it onto the white horse's back, then parted the waterway, riding the surging waves, and bore themselves up out of the water on the current.，：「？」：「，。Wukong, watching from midair, asked, "Where is the master?" Bajie said, "Master's surname is now Chen, given name 'Gone-for-Good.'，。」，；There's nowhere to search for him now — let's get to the shore first and think of another plan." It so happened that Bajie had originally been Marshal Tianpeng come down to the mortal world, and in his time he had commanded eighty thousand naval troops of the Heavenly River;；Sha Monk had originally come from the Flowing-Sand River;：。and the white horse had originally been a grandson of the Dragon King of the Western Sea — and so all three of them understood the ways of water.，，，，。The Great Sage guided them from midair, and in a moment they turned back to the eastern bank, where they dried and brushed down the horse, and wrung out their clothes.，。The Great Sage lowered his cloud, and together they went to the Chen family village.：「，。」，，：「，，，。Already someone had reported to the two old men, "Of the four elders going for the scriptures, now only three have come back." The two brothers hurried out to meet them, and indeed saw their clothes still wet, saying, "Venerable sirs, we begged you so earnestly to stay, and you would not, insisting on going only to end up like this.？」：「，。」：「！How is it that Elder Sanzang is nowhere to be seen?" Bajie said, "He's not called Sanzang anymore — his name has been changed to Chen Gone-for-Good." The two old men wept, saying, "How pitiful!！How pitiful!，，。」：「，。I said we should wait for the snow to melt and prepare a boat to see you across, but you insisted so stubbornly and would not listen, and now it has cost him his life." Wukong said, "Old sirs, do not go worrying on behalf of the departed.。My master is fated not to die — his life span is a long one.，。I, old Sun, know full well that this must be the doing of that Great King of Divine Might, working his schemes.，，，。Just set your minds at ease, and help us wash our clothes, dry out our travel permit, and fetch fodder to feed the white horse.，，，，。」，，。Wait until my brothers and I find that fiend, rescue our master, and while we're at it cut the weeds and pull out the roots for good, ridding your whole village of this future menace, so that you may live in peace forever after." Hearing this, old Chen was filled with joy, and at once ordered a vegetarian meal to be prepared.

Unable to seize the disguised children, the Great King of Numinous Power decides that eating Tripitaka will grant immortality. He summons a bitter wind and heavy snow, freezing the Heaven-Reaching River overnight. The pilgrims distrust the sudden ice, but merchants and villagers cross safely, and Tripitaka's eagerness to reach the Buddha makes him unwilling to wait for another season or seek a longer road around.

The party ventures onto the frozen river with horse and baggage. From below, the demon weakens the ice around Tripitaka while leaving the others supported; the monk plunges through and is swept into the underwater palace. Wukong, Bajie and Sha Wujing reach the far bank too late, realize that the storm and freeze were a trap made expressly for their master, and prepare to return beneath the river in search of him.

When it was written 背景

The second Heaven-Reaching River chapter turns Tripitaka's defining devotion into vulnerability. His desire to keep moving west is admirable, but urgency makes the unnatural weather look providential and overrules Wukong's suspicion. The monster manipulates a whole environment rather than approaching in disguise, so ordinary evidence—the tracks and testimony of successful travelers—supports the wrong conclusion. Learners should follow the seasonal vocabulary of wind, snow, freezing and thawing, and see how the river crossing literalizes a recurring lesson: the straightest apparent route toward the scriptures may conceal the next ordeal.
