正走处,忽听得一棒锣声,路两边闪出三十多人,一个个枪刀棍棒,拦住路口道:「和尚,那里走?」諕得个唐僧战兢兢,坐不稳,跌下马来,蹲在路傍草科里,只叫:「大王饶命,大王饶命。」那为头的两个大汉道:「不打你,只是有盘缠留下。」长老方才省悟,知他是一伙强人,却欠身抬头观看。但见他:

:「Seeing how fierce and vicious they looked, Sanzang had no choice but to rise, press his palms together before his chest, and say, "Great kings, this poor monk is one sent by the Tang emperor of the Eastern Land to fetch scriptures from the Western Heaven.Since parting from Chang'an, so many years have passed that whatever travel money I had is long since spent.One who has left the family relies solely on begging alms — how could I possess wealth or silk?。」:「I beg you, great kings, to show mercy and let this poor monk pass." The two bandit leaders, with their followers, came forward and said, "Here we've raised a tiger's heart and cut off this vital road expressly to get some wealth — what do you mean, 'show mercy'?。」:「If you truly have no wealth, then quickly strip off your clothes and leave the white horse behind, and we'll let you pass." Sanzang said, "Amitabha!This robe of mine was begged cloth from one house and needles from another, pieced together bit by bit from alms.If you strip it from me, would that not be as good as killing me outright?。」It's only that being a good fellow in this life leads to being reborn a beast in the next." Hearing this, the bandit flew into a rage, seized his great cudgel, and came forward to strike.:「The elder said nothing aloud, but inwardly thought: "How pitiable!。」You speak only of your own cudgel, and do not yet know of my disciple's cudgel." The bandit gave him no chance to explain further and, raising his staff, struck at him wildly, heedless of head or face.:「All his life the elder had never known how to lie, but faced with this desperate strait he had no choice but to speak a falsehood: "Great kings, hold your hands a moment.。」:「。」I have a young disciple who will arrive shortly from behind; he carries a few taels of silver on him, and I will give it to you." The bandit said, "This monk clearly can't bear a beating — tie him up first." The whole gang of underlings set upon him at once, bound him with a rope, and hoisted him high up into a tree.

Wukong set down his bundle and said, "Gentlemen, officers all, no need to shout.There is some travel money here in the bundle — not much, only about twenty ingots of horse-hoof gold and twenty or thirty ingots of powder-face silver; the loose small change I haven't counted.If you want it, just take the bundle and all — only don't beat my master.:『An old book says: 'Virtue is the root;。』wealth is the branch.' This is but a trifling matter.We who have left the family always have places to beg alms; if we meet an elder patron who feeds monks, there is incense-money to be had, and clothing too — how much can we possibly use?。」:「。」:「。」I only ask that you let my master down, and I will offer everything to you at once." Hearing this, the whole band of bandits were delighted and said, "That old monk is stingy, but this little monk is generous after all." And they ordered, "Let him down." Having secured his life, the elder leapt onto the horse, and without a thought for Wukong, whipped it and galloped straight back the way they had come.

:「Hearing this, the Great Sage could not help laughing and said, "Master, you, old man, are far too unfeeling.For your sake, in fetching the scriptures, I have spent no end of diligent toil, and now that I've beaten these two petty bandits to death, you instead tell them to go and accuse old Monkey.Though it was my hand that struck the blow, it was done for your sake alone.If you were not going to the Western Heaven for the scriptures, I would not be your disciple — how else would I have come here, and how would I have come to kill anyone?。」:「I might as well pray over them myself, then." Gripping his iron cudgel, he pounded it three times upon the grave and said, "You unlucky bandits, listen well: you struck me seven or eight blows in front, and seven or eight more behind, beating me without my feeling the least pain or itch, and it roused my temper, so that in one moment's mistake, I struck you dead.Go and lodge your complaint wherever you please — old Monkey truly fears nothing: the Jade Emperor knows me well, the Heavenly Kings follow my lead;the Twenty-Eight Constellations fear me, the Nine Luminaries dread me;the City Gods of every prefecture and county kneel to me, the God of Mount Tai is terrified of me;the Ten Kings of the Underworld have all served as my attendants, and the Five Roads' Fierce Spirits have all been my juniors.。」:「?」:「No matter which of the Three Realms or Five Offices, or which ruler in any of the ten directions, all are on the closest terms with me — go complain wherever you like." Hearing him speak such fierce words, Sanzang grew alarmed and said, "Disciple, my prayer was meant to teach you to cherish the virtue of preserving life and to be a good and kindly man — how could you take it so seriously?" Wukong said, "Master, this is no matter for jesting.。」Let's hurry and find lodging for the night instead." The elder had no choice but to mount his horse, harboring resentment in his heart.

孙大圣有不睦之心,八戒、沙僧亦有嫉妒之意,师徒都面是背非。依大路向西正走,忽见路北下有一座庄院。三藏用鞭指定道:「我们到那里借宿去。」八戒道:「正是。」遂行至庄舍边下马。看时,却也好个住场。但见:

As the elder went forward, suddenly an old man came walking out from the gate of the village house; Sanzang went to meet him and offered a greeting.:「?」:「The old man asked, "Where does the reverend monk come from?" Sanzang said, "This poor monk is an envoy from the Great Tang of the Eastern Land, sent to seek scriptures in the Western Heaven.。」:「?」:「。」:「?」:「。」Passing by your esteemed region, and with the sky growing dark, I have come especially to your worthy household to beg a night's lodging." The old man laughed and said, "From your noble land to here is a long and distant journey — how did you manage to cross rivers and climb mountains and arrive here alone?" Sanzang said, "This poor monk also has three disciples travelling with him." The old man asked, "Where are your worthy disciples?" Sanzang pointed with his hand and said, "Those standing by the main road there." The old man suddenly raised his head, and seeing how hideous and ugly their faces were, he hastily turned and made to go back inside.:「!」:「Sanzang caught hold of him and said, "Venerable benefactor, I beg you, out of the greatest compassion, grant us a night's lodging!" The old man, trembling, could barely speak, shaking his head and waving his hands, saying, "No, no, no, no — they don't look human at all!。」:「They, they, they must be some kind of monster spirits." Sanzang said with a placating smile, "Benefactor, please do not be afraid.。」:「My disciples were simply born with such looks — they are not monsters." The old man said, "Oh, heavens!。」:「。」One is a yaksha, one has a horse face, and one is a Thunder God." Hearing this, Wukong called out loudly, "The Thunder God is my grandson, the yaksha is my great-grandson, and the horse-face is my great-great-grandson." Hearing this, the old man's soul scattered and his spirit fled, his face draining of color, and he wanted only to go back inside.:「。」Sanzang held him back, and together they went to the thatched hall, where he said with a smile, "Venerable benefactor, do not be afraid of them — they are all simply coarse and rough by nature, and do not know how to speak properly."

长老向前,忽见那村舍门里走出一个老者,即与相见,道了问讯。那老者问道:「僧家从那里来?」三藏道:「贫僧乃东土大唐钦差往西天求经者。适路过宝方,天色将晚,特来檀府告宿一宵。」老者笑道:「你贵处到我这里,程途迢递,怎么涉水登山,独自到此?」三藏道:「贫僧还有三个徒弟同来。」老者问:「高徒何在?」三藏用手指道:「那大路傍立的便是。」老者猛抬头,看见他们面貌丑陋,急回身往里就走。被三藏扯住道:「老施主,千万慈悲,告借一宿!」老者战兢兢拑口难言,摇著头,摆著手道:「不、不、不、不像人模样!是、是、是几个妖精。」三藏陪笑道:「施主切休恐惧。我徒弟生得是这等相貌,不是妖精。」老者道:「爷爷呀!一个夜叉,一个马面,一个雷公。」行者闻言,厉声高叫道:「雷公是我孙子,夜叉是我重孙,马面是我玄孙哩。」那老者听见,魄散魂飞,面容失色,只要进去。三藏搀住他,同到草堂,陪笑道:「老施主,不要怕他,他都是这等粗鲁,不会说话。」

:「?」:「。」Just as he was smoothing things over, an old woman came out from the back, leading a small child of five or six, and said, "Old man, why are you so frightened?" Only then did the old man call out, "Old woman, bring tea." The old woman promptly set the child down, went inside, and brought out two cups of tea.:「When the tea was finished, Sanzang came down and, bowing to the old woman, said, "This poor monk is sent by the Great Tang of the Eastern Land to fetch scriptures in the Western Heaven.。」:「?」:「Having just arrived in your esteemed region, I beg to lodge a night at your worthy home; it is only that my three disciples are ugly in appearance, and the old master of the house was startled at the sight of them." The old woman said, "If merely ugly faces gave such a fright, then what would happen at the sight of tigers and wolves?" The old man said, "Old woman, ugly faces are bearable enough, but it was their speech that was even more frightening.I said they looked like a yaksha, a horse-face, and a Thunder God, and he shouted back that the Thunder God was his grandson, the yaksha his great-grandson, and the horse-face his great-great-grandson.。」:「Hearing this, I was naturally terrified." Tang Seng said, "No, no, that's not it.The one who looks like the Thunder God is my eldest disciple, Sun Wukong;the one who looks like the horse-face is my second disciple, Zhu Wuneng;the one who looks like the yaksha is my third disciple, Sha Wujing.?」Though they are ugly in appearance, they too uphold the teachings of the Buddhist order and have taken refuge in good fruits — they are no evil demons or vicious monsters, so why fear them?

Now it is told that among that band of bandits there was indeed old Yang's son.Earlier that morning, when Wukong had killed the two bandit chiefs before the mountain, they had all scattered in flight to save their lives.By about the fourth watch, they had regrouped into a band again, and came pounding at the gate.:「。」:「。」:「。」Hearing the noise at the gate, the old man threw on his clothes and said, "Old wife, that wretch's gang has come." The old woman said, "Since they've come, go open the gate and let them in." Only then did the old man open the gate, and there was that band of bandits, all shouting, "We're starving, we're starving!" Old Yang's son hurried inside, roused his wife, and had her pound rice and cook a meal.:「?」:「。」But there was no firewood in the kitchen, so he went to the back garden to fetch some; on returning to the kitchen he asked his wife, "Whose white horse is that in the back garden?"

:「。」:「?」:「。」:「On hearing this, the wretch walked out of the hall, clapped his hands, and laughed, "Brothers, what luck, what luck! Our enemy is right here in my own house." The bandits asked, "Which enemy?" The wretch said, "None other than the monk who killed our chief — he's come to lodge in my house and is right now asleep in the thatched round hut." The bandits said, "Excellent, excellent!。」:「Let's seize these bald donkeys and chop every one of them into mincemeat: first, we'll get their baggage and white horse; second, we'll avenge our chief." The wretch said, "Don't be in such a hurry — go sharpen your knives first.。」Wait until I've got the rice cooked, so everyone can eat their fill, and then we'll all strike together." Sure enough, those bandits set to it — those with knives sharpened their knives, those with spears sharpened their spears.

那老儿听得此言,悄悄的走到后园,叫起唐僧四位道:「那厮领众来了,知得汝等在此,意欲图害。我老拙念你远来,不忍伤害。快早收拾行李,我送你往后门出去罢。」三藏听说,战兢兢的叩头谢了老者,即唤八戒牵马,沙僧挑担,行者拿了九环锡杖。老者开后门,放他去了,依旧悄悄的来前睡下。

Now it is told that once the bandits had sharpened their knives and spears and eaten their fill, it was already the fifth watch; they all went together to the garden to look, but the travelers were gone.They hastily lit lamps and torches and searched for a long while, but found no trace anywhere — only the back gate stood open.:「。」They all cried, "They've fled through the back gate, they've fled!" and with a shout set off in pursuit.Each of them ran like the wind, swift as arrows, chasing on until the sun rose in the east, when at last they caught sight of Tang Seng.The elder suddenly heard shouting, and turning to look back, saw some twenty or thirty men coming on in a thick mass of spears and knives.:「?」:「。」:「。」:「?」:「He cried out, "Disciples! The bandit troops are catching up with us — what shall we do?" Wukong said, "Don't worry, don't worry, old Monkey will settle them." Sanzang reined in his horse and said, "Wukong, on no account harm anyone — just frighten them off, that will do." But Wukong had no intention of heeding this; he quickly drew out his cudgel, turned to face them, and said, "Where are you all off to?" The bandits cursed, "Insolent bald wretch!。」Give us back our chief's life!" The gang formed a ring around Wukong, hemming him in the middle, and raised their spears and knives, hacking and stabbing wildly.The Great Sage gave his gold-banded cudgel a shake, and it grew as thick as a bowl; with it he beat that band of bandits until they scattered like falling stars and drifting clouds — those it struck head-on died at once, those it grazed perished likewise;those it knocked had their bones broken, those it brushed had their skin torn;the cleverer ones managed to run off and escape, while the more foolish ones all went to see King Yama.

Wukong stepped forward, seized a blade, and cut off the head of the one in yellow; holding it dripping with blood in his hand, he put away his iron cudgel, strode forward on cloud-swift steps, and caught up with Tang Seng's horse. Holding up the head, he said, "Master, this is old Yang's unfilial son — old Monkey has taken his head." At the sight, Sanzang went pale with fright, and in his panic fell off his horse, cursing, "You wretched macaque, you've frightened me half to death!。」Take it away at once, take it away!" Bajie stepped forward, kicked the head off to the side of the road, and used his rake to pile some earth over it.

三藏在马上见打倒许多人,慌的放马奔西。猪八戒与沙和尚紧随鞭镫而去。行者问那不死带伤的贼人道:「那个是那杨老儿的儿子?」那贼哼哼的告道:「爷爷,那穿黄的是。」行者上前,夺过刀来,把个穿黄的割下头来,血淋淋提在手中,收了铁棒,拽开云步,赶到唐僧马前,提著头道:「师父,这是杨老儿的逆子,被老孙取将首级来也。」三藏见了,大惊失色,慌得跌下马来,骂道:「这泼猢狲諕杀我也!快拿过,快拿过。」八戒上前,将人头一脚踢下路傍,使钉钯筑些土盖了。

:「。」:「。」Sha Seng set down the load and helped support Tang Seng, saying, "Master, please rise." The elder, once steadied on the ground, began to recite the Tight-Fillet Spell, which made Wukong's ears turn red and his face flush, his eyes swell and his head spin; he rolled about on the ground, crying only, "Stop reciting, stop reciting!" The elder recited it more than ten times over and still would not stop.:「。」:「。」:「?」:「Wukong turned somersaults, stood on his head like a dragonfly, unable to bear the pain, and could only cry, "Master, forgive my offense — if you have something to say, just say it, stop reciting, stop reciting!" Only then did Sanzang stop and say, "I have nothing to say — I don't want you to follow me anymore, go back." Enduring the pain, Wukong kowtowed and said, "Master, why would you drive me away just like this?" Sanzang said, "You wicked ape, you are far too violent and cruel — you are no fit person to fetch scriptures.Yesterday, at the foot of the mountain slope, you killed those two bandit chiefs, and I already blamed you for your lack of mercy.Then in the evening we came to the old man's house, where we received his kindness of a meal and lodging, and further received his kindness in opening the back gate to let us escape with our lives.Although his son was unworthy, and it was none of our affair, still you should not have cut off his head;moreover, you killed so many others besides, destroying how many lives, and doing such harm to the harmony of Heaven and Earth.Time and again I have admonished you, yet you have not one shred of kindly feeling — of what use are you to me?。」:「。」Go quickly, go quickly, before I recite the sacred spell again!" Wukong, frightened, could only say, "Don't recite it, don't recite it, I'm going!" And with those words, he mounted his somersault cloud and, in a flash, vanished without a trace.Alas!This is truly as it is said:

What it’s about

In rough country the pilgrims meet armed bandits who tie Tripitaka up and intend robbery. Wukong frees his master and kills several attackers despite Tripitaka's insistence that a Buddhist disciple must not take life. Later they lodge with an old man whose son belongs to the same gang. The son returns with companions, and another confrontation ends in further deaths. Wukong even presents a severed head to Tripitaka as proof that the danger has been removed.

Horrified by the killings and by Wukong's defiance, Tripitaka recites the Tight-Fillet Spell and dismisses him from the pilgrimage. Wukong pleads that he has protected the monk through repeated ordeals and has nowhere else to go, but Tripitaka writes a formal statement of expulsion and orders him never to return. Wukong leaves for the Flower-Fruit Mountain. The remaining pilgrims resume their road without their strongest protector, while the ethical dispute remains unresolved rather than producing reconciliation.

When it was written 背景

This chapter exposes a durable contradiction in the pilgrimage: Tripitaka's commitment to nonviolence depends repeatedly on Wukong's capacity for violence. The bandits are human rather than transformed beasts, so killing them cannot be excused as revealing a monster's true form. Wukong treats lethal prevention as practical protection, while the monk sees it as a direct betrayal of Buddhist discipline. Their break is therefore more serious than an ordinary quarrel over impatience. The written dismissal tries to turn a volatile relationship into formal moral judgment, yet readers know that the road's dangers have not diminished. That vulnerability prepares the identity crisis of the next chapters.
