,。The story tells how the four pilgrims, Sanzang and his three disciples, left Small Western Heaven behind and set out cheerfully on their way.,,,。They traveled a month's journey, and it was just the time of late spring when flowers bloom; they saw several groves and gardens all deep in green shade, and after a spell of wind and rain, dusk fell once more.:「,,?」:「。Sanzang reined in his horse and said, "Disciples, the sky is growing dark—on which road shall we seek lodging?" Xingzhe laughed and said, "Master, set your mind at ease.,,,,,,,?」:「,?If there's no place to borrow lodging, the three of us all have some skill—I'll have Bajie cut grass, Sha Seng pull down pines, and old Monkey can play the carpenter, and we'll just build a shed-hut right there on the road; it would do well enough to live in for a year or so—why are you in such a hurry?" Bajie said, "Brother, is this place fit to live in?,,,?」:「,。The mountains are full of tigers, leopards, wolves and vipers, and the ground everywhere swarms with mountain-demons and goblins; by daylight it's hard enough to travel, so how would we dare to lodge here at night?" Xingzhe said, "Idiot, you get less promising all the time.,,,。」It's not that old Monkey is boasting, but with this staff gripped in hand, even if the sky came crashing down, I could hold it up."

话说三藏四众躲离了小西天,欣然上路。行经个月程途,正是春深花放之时,见了几处园林皆绿暗,一番风雨又黄昏。三藏勒马道:「徒弟啊,天色晚矣,往那条路上求宿去?」行者笑道:「师父放心。若是没有借宿处,我三人都有些本事,叫八戒砍草,沙和尚扳松,老孙会做木匠,就在那路上搭个蓬庵,好道也住得年把,你忙怎的?」八戒道:「哥呀,这个所在岂是住场?满山多虎豹狼虫,遍地有魑魅魍魉,白日里尚且难行,黑夜里怎生敢宿?」行者道:「呆子,越发不长进了。不是老孙海口,只这条棒子揝在手里,就是塌下天来,也撑得住。」
,。As master and disciples were talking things over, they suddenly saw a mountain estate not far away.:「,。」:「?」:「?Xingzhe said, "Good, there's a place to lodge." The elder asked, "Where?" Xingzhe pointed and said, "Isn't that a household there among the trees?,。」,,。Let's go borrow lodging for the night and set off early tomorrow morning." The elder happily urged his horse forward, and on reaching the gate of the estate he dismounted, only to find the brushwood gate tightly shut.:「,。」,,,,,,:「?」,:「,。The elder knocked at the gate, saying, "Open up, open up." Inside there was an old man, dragging a goosefoot cane in his hand, wearing sandals of rush on his feet, a black kerchief on his head, and plain clothing on his body; he opened the door and asked, "Who is this shouting and calling here?" Sanzang pressed his palms together at his chest and bowed in salutation, saying, "Venerable patron, this poor monk has been sent from the Land of the East to fetch scriptures from the Western Heaven.,,,。」:「,,。Having just arrived in your honored region, and the day being late, I have made bold to come to your esteemed household to borrow lodging for the night; I humbly beg you to grant this convenience." The old man said, "Monk, if you mean to travel west, you cannot get through.,,。This place is Small Western Heaven; if you're going to Great Western Heaven, the road ahead is very far indeed.,。」:「?」:「,,。」:「『』?」:「,。And never mind how hard the journey ahead will be—just this stretch right here is already hard enough to bear." Sanzang asked, "How is it hard to bear?" The old man pointed with his hand and said, "West of our village, more than thirty li on, there is a Persimmon-Mush Lane, on a mountain called Seven Wonders." Sanzang said, "What is meant by 'Seven Wonders'?" The old man said, "This mountain path runs some eight hundred li, and the whole mountain is covered in persimmon trees.:『:,;As the old saying goes: 'The persimmon tree has seven wonders: first, it prolongs life;,;second, it gives abundant shade;,;third, no birds nest in it;,;fourth, it has no insects;,;fifth, its frosted leaves are lovely to look at;,;sixth, its fruit is fine;,。』。seventh, its branches and leaves are lush and large.' Hence it is named Seven Wonders Mountain.,。This poor region of ours has broad land and few people, and into those deep mountains, since ancient times, no one has ever gone.,,,,『』。Every year the ripe, rotting persimmons fall onto the road and fill up the whole narrow stone lane between the cliffs, and after being soaked through by rain, dew, frost, and snow and left to mold through the summer, they turn the whole road into filth, so that the local people commonly call it 'Mush-Dung Lane.',,。Whenever the west wind blows, a foul stench comes—it's worse than even cleaning out an east-side privy.,,。」。Now it happens to be deep spring, and the southeast wind is blowing strong, so you haven't smelled it yet." Sanzang's heart grew troubled and he said nothing.

,、、、、、,,,,,。The old man, his heart filled with joy, at once ordered a house-servant to invite several neighbors from left and right, cousins, brothers-in-law, in-laws, and friends—altogether eight or nine elders came to meet them; when they had met Tang Seng and the matter of catching the demon was raised, every one of them was delighted.:「?」:「。」:「,。The elders asked, "Which of your worthy disciples will go to catch it?" Xingzhe put his hands together and said, "It is I, this little monk." The elders said in alarm, "That won't do, that won't do.,。That demon's powers are vast, and its body is huge and clumsy.,。」:「,。This elder brother of yours is so thin and small, he wouldn't even be enough to fill the gaps between its teeth." Xingzhe said with a laugh, "Old sirs, you can't judge a person by guesswork.,,『』。」,:「,,?」:「?I may be small, but I'm sturdy—it's all a matter of 'the vigor kept within, like a blade honed on water.'" Hearing this, the elders had no choice but to go along and said, "Elder, once you've caught the demon, what reward will you want?" Xingzhe said, "Why speak of wanting any reward at all?:『,,。』,。」:「,。As the saying goes: 'Speak of gold and it dazzles the eyes, speak of silver and it looks pale and foolish, speak of copper cash and it smells rank.' We are monks who accumulate virtue, and we will absolutely not want money." The elders said, "If that's so, then you are truly monks of high ordination.,?But if you won't take money, how could there be any reason for you to labor for nothing?,,,,,,,,。」:「。Each of our households lives by fish and fields—if you truly subdue this scourge and cleanse this land, each household will give you two mou of good farmland, which together will make a thousand mou in one place; you masters and disciples could build a monastery upon it, sit in meditation and study the Way there, better than wandering as itinerant monks." Xingzhe again laughed and said, "That's even less workable.,,,,,。」:「,?」:「,,。」:「。The moment it's said we've taken land, we'd have to keep horses for official service, pay grain-tax and provide fodder, unable to sleep from dusk on and unable to rest by the fifth watch—that would really be the death of us." The elders said, "If you want none of these things, then how are we to thank you?" Xingzhe said, "We who have left the household need only a cup of tea and a bowl of rice, and that will be thanks enough." The elders said happily, "That's easy enough.?」:「,。」:「:,;But we don't know how you mean to catch it?" Xingzhe said, "Whenever it comes, I'll catch it." The elders said, "That demon is enormous—propping up the sky above, planted on the earth below;,。it comes with wind and leaves in fog.?」:「,;How could you possibly get near it?" Xingzhe said with a laugh, "As for a demon that summons wind and rides fog, I'd treat it as no more than my own grandson;,。」and as for its huge body, I have the means to strike it down."

那老者满心欢喜,即命家僮请几个左邻、右舍、表弟、姨兄、亲家、朋友,共有八九位老者,都来相见,会了唐僧,言及拿妖一事,无不欣然。众老问:「是那一位高徒去拿?」行者叉手道:「是我小和尚。」众老悚然道:「不济,不济。那妖精神通广大,身体狼犺。你这个长老瘦瘦小小,还不够他填牙齿缝哩。」行者笑道:「老官儿,你估不出人来。我小自小,结实,都是『吃了磨刀水的秀气在内』哩。」众老见说,只得依从道:「长老,拿住妖精,你要多少谢礼?」行者道:「何必说要甚么谢礼?俗语云:『说金子晃眼,说银子傻白,说铜钱腥气。』我等乃积德的和尚,决不要钱。」众老道:「既如此说,都是受戒的高僧。既不要钱,岂有空劳之理?我等各家俱以鱼田为活,若果降了妖孽,净了地方,我等每家送你两亩良田,共凑一千亩,坐落一处,你师徒们在上起盖寺院,打坐参禅,强似方上云游。」行者又笑道:「越不停当。但说要了田,就要养马当差,纳粮办草,黄昏不得睡,五鼓不得眠,好倒弄杀人也。」众老道:「诸般不要,却将何谢?」行者道:「我出家人,但只是一茶一饭,便是谢了。」众老喜道:「这个容易。但不知你怎么拿他?」行者道:「他但来,我就拿住他。」众老道:「那妖大著哩:上拄天,下拄地;来时风,去时雾。你却怎生近得他?」行者笑道:「若论呼风驾雾的妖精,我把他当孙子罢了;若说身体长大,有那手段打他。」

Bajie said, "Brother, these people have all been through this before—when the wind roars, it means the demon is coming.,,,,?」,,。They've all gone to hide—we're no kin of theirs, we don't know them, and we're not old friends bound by ties of loyalty—why bother watching on their behalf?" But Xingzhe's strength was great, and without another word he dragged them both out and set them standing in the courtyard.,:That gust of wind grew ever fiercer—what a wind it was:

又斗多时,不觉东方发白。那怪不敢恋战,回头就走。行者与八戒一齐赶来,忽闻得污秽之气逼人,乃是七绝山稀柿同也。八戒道:「是那家淘毛厕哩?哏!臭气难闻。」行者侮著鼻子,只叫:「快赶妖精,快赶妖精。」那怪物撺过山去,现了本像,乃是一条红鳞大蟒。你看他:
:「。Bajie said, "So it's a snake this long after all.,,。」:「㮇。If it wanted to eat people, a single meal would take five hundred and still not be full." Xingzhe said, "That soft-shaft spear was really its two forked tongues.,。」,。Let's chase it while it's still weak, and strike it out from behind." Bajie leapt up at once, catching up, and struck with his rake.,。The monster's head burrowed into a hole, with seven or eight feet of tail still left dangling outside.,:「,。」,。Bajie dropped his rake, grabbed hold with one hand, and said, "Got you, got you." He pulled with all his strength outward, but could not budge it even a hair's breadth.:「,,,。」,。Xingzhe laughed and said, "Idiot, let it go in—there's a way to deal with it—don't go pulling the snake backward like that." Sure enough, Bajie let go, and the monster shrank itself in.:「,;Bajie grumbled, "If we hadn't let go just now, half its body would already be ours;,?now that it's shrunk back in like this, how are we ever going to get it out??」:「,,,,。Isn't this what they call 'no way to handle the snake'?" Wukong said, "This creature's body is clumsy and unwieldy, and its den is narrow and small — it certainly can't turn itself around in there, so it must go straight through, and there's bound to be a back door where its head comes out.,。」You hurry over and block the back door, while I strike at the front door."

The monster arched its back up, just like a stretch of rainbow across the eastern sky.:「,。」:「。」。Bajie said, "It looks like a bridge, all right, but no one would dare walk on it." Wukong said, "Then I'll make it turn into a boat for you to see."

Bajie said, "Brother, don't you know old Hog has always loved beating dead snakes?" Whereupon he put away his weapon, grabbed the tail, and dragged it back turned around.

We've brought food for you!" Hearing this, the elder thanked them endlessly, saying, "Truly these are good and faithful people."

What it’s about
Near Tuoluo Village the pilgrims learn that a huge red-scaled python has devoured people and livestock for years. The villagers promise supplies if the travelers can remove it. Wukong and Bajie patrol at night; after a long contest the serpent swallows Wukong, who attacks it from within and forces his way out. Bajie finishes the exposed creature with his rake, and the grateful community prepares carts of provisions for the westward road.
The villagers guide the party through Seven-Termination Mountain, where fallen fruit has rotted for generations into a deep, foul mire blocking horses and people. Bajie enlarges himself into an enormous boar and clears a passage with his snout, pushing through the filth while carrying the party's route forward. The chapter pairs the glamorous defeat of a man-eating monster with an undignified work of sanitation; both are necessary before Tripitaka can leave the district safely.
When it was written 背景
The python is one of the novel's more animal-like adversaries, with little court, disguise or theological biography. Its direct predation lets the episode move quickly from village testimony to night watch and bodily combat. The second obstacle then gives Bajie special importance: traits associated with his pig form and comic appetite become precisely suited to communal labor that Wukong cannot accomplish as neatly. For learners, the paired place names provide a useful structure—Tuoluo requires rescue, while Seven-Termination Mountain requires passage-making. The chapter's vocabulary of stench and waste is intentionally earthy, insisting that progress toward scripture includes clearing accumulated material decay, not only discerning sophisticated illusions.
