Now, obeying the Great King's order, I have come here to take two palace maids to wait upon Her Highness Jinsheng.?」:「Who are you, that you dare question me?"

Because I am escorting the Tang Monk from the Land of the East to worship Buddha in the Western Heaven, I passed through this kingdom, and learning that this band of evil fiends was oppressing its ruler, I have specially displayed my heroic talent to govern the realm and drive out evil.。」I had nowhere to look for you, and yet here you come to throw away your life."

Only then did Tang Seng, supporting the king, come out of the chamber together with him.They saw the whole sky clear and bright, with not a trace of demonic vapor left.:「。」:「。」The emperor at once went to the banquet table, and with his own hands took up the pot to pour wine, filling a golden cup to the brim, and offered it to Xingzhe, saying: "Divine monk, allow me this small token of thanks, this small token of thanks." Xingzhe took the cup in hand, but before he could reply, he heard an official outside the court gate report: "Fire has broken out at the west gate!" Hearing this, Xingzhe flung the golden cup, wine and all, up into the air — with a ringing clang, the golden cup fell to the ground.:「The king, flustered, bowed and said: "Divine monk, forgive me, forgive me — it is I who was at fault.By rights I should have invited you up to the hall to offer thanks properly; it was only because this wine happened to be conveniently at hand that I offered it here instead.?」:「。」:「But now, divine monk, you have flung away the cup — is that not a sign you take offense?" Xingzhe laughed and said: "That is not it at all, that is not it at all." A moment later, another official came to report: "What a fine rain! Just as the fire broke out at the west gate, a great downpour came and put the fire out.。」:「The whole street is running with water, and it all smells of wine." Xingzhe laughed again and said: "Your Majesty, you saw me fling away the cup and suspected I took offense — but that was not it.The monster fled defeated toward the west, and though I did not pursue him, he set a fire in his wake.?」That cup of wine was in fact what I used to put out the monster's fire and save the people inside and outside the west city — how could I have meant anything else?"

The king was more delighted and respectful than ever.He at once invited Sanzang and his three disciples up together onto the throne hall, and there arose in him even a thought of yielding his throne to them.:「Xingzhe laughed and said: "Your Majesty, that monster just now claimed to be the vanguard under Saitaisui, come here to fetch palace maids.Now that he has fled back defeated, he is sure to report it to that fiend, and that fiend is certain to come and contend with me.I fear that if he suddenly musters his troops and comes, he will inevitably alarm and harm the common people again, and frighten Your Majesty, so I wish to go out and meet him halfway, and there in midair seize him and bring back the Holy Empress.But I do not yet know which direction he has gone.?」:「How far is it from here to his mountain cave?" The king said: "I once sent night-scouting cavalry there to gather intelligence, and the round trip took over fifty days.。」:「。」:「。」:「It lies to the south, some three thousand-odd li away." Hearing this, Xingzhe called out: "Eight Rules, Sha Monk, guard and stay here — old Monkey will go and come back." The king caught hold of him, saying: "Divine monk, please take your time for one day; let me prepare some dry provisions and roasted grain for you, give you some silver for travel expenses, and choose a swift horse — only then may you go." Xingzhe laughed and said: "Your Majesty speaks as one who crosses mountains and ridges on foot.。」:「?」Old Monkey will not hide it from you: a journey of three thousand li such as this — pour a cup of wine and before it cools I'll have made the round trip." The king said: "Divine monk, do not take offense at what I say, but with your honored appearance, you look just like a monkey — how could you possibly have such power to travel so?" Xingzhe said:

:「。」:「。」Hearing this, the king was both alarmed and delighted, and smiling, held up a cup of imperial wine and handed it to Xingzhe, saying: "Divine monk, you will labor far on my behalf — take this cup as a token of my intent."

Splendid Xingzhe — with that word, he let out a whistle and vanished without a trace.The ruler and ministers of that whole kingdom were left astonished — but no more of that for now.

这行者只顾看玩,不觉沙灰飞入鼻内,痒斯斯的,打了两个喷嚏。即回头,伸手在岩下摸了两个鹅卵石,塞住鼻子。摇身一变,变做一个攒火的鹞子,飞入烟火中间,蓦了几蓦,却就没了沙灰,烟火也息了。急现本像下来,又看时,只听得丁丁东东的一个铜锣声响。却道:「我走错了路也,这里不是妖精住处。锣声似铺兵之锣,想是通国的大路,有铺兵去下文书。且等老孙去问他一问。」

Just as he was walking along, he suddenly saw what looked like a young demon, shouldering a yellow banner, carrying a document on his back, beating a gong, and hurrying along swift as flying.:「Xingzhe laughed and said: "So it is this fellow beating the gong.I wonder what letter he is delivering?。」Let me listen in on him." Splendid Great Sage — he shook himself and turned into a horsefly, and lightly flew down onto the demon's document pouch.:「He heard the monster beating his gong, muttering and grumbling to himself as he recited: "My Great King is really too cruel-hearted.Three years ago, at Zhuzi Guo, he forcibly seized the Golden Sage Empress, but all this time he has had no luck — he has never managed to touch her body, and it is only the palace maids sent to fill in for her who have suffered for it.Two were sent, and both were killed; four were sent, and they too were killed.The year before last he demanded some, last year he demanded more, this year he demands yet more, and now he wants still more.But this time he has run into his match — the vanguard who went to demand the palace maids was defeated by some Sun Xingzhe or other, and no maids were sent.My Great King, enraged over this, means to contend with that kingdom, and has sent me to deliver some kind of declaration of war.On this trip, if that king does not fight, well and good, but if he fights, it will surely go badly for him.My Great King will send smoke and fire and flying sand, and that king, his ministers, and all his common people — not one of them could hope to survive.Then we will seize his city and land, my Great King will proclaim himself emperor, and we will all be styled his ministers.。」Though there will indeed be titles and ranks great and small for us, still — this is something Heaven's principle cannot tolerate."

行者听了,暗喜道:「妖精也有存心好的。似他后边这两句话,说『天理难容』,却不是个好的?但只说金圣皇后一向无缘,未得沾身,此话却不解其意。等我问他一问。」嘤的一声,一翅飞离了妖精,转向前路,有十数里地,摇身一变,又变做一个道童:

:「He came round a mountain slope and, meeting the little demon face to face, made a greeting with clasped hands, saying: "Officer, where are you off to??」:「。」:「?」:「What document are you delivering?" The monster, as though he already knew him, stopped his gong-stick and returned the greeting with a smile, saying: "My Great King has sent me to deliver a declaration of war to Zhuzi Guo." Xingzhe took up the thread and asked: "That matter of the one from Zhuzi Guo — has she and the Great King come together yet?" The little demon said: "Ever since she was carried off the year before last, at the time there was an immortal who sent a set of five-colored celestial robes as a new wardrobe gift for the Golden Sage Palace lady.Once she put on that robe, her whole body, top to bottom, grew covered with needle-like spines, and my Great King dares not so much as touch her, not even a light touch.If he so much as brushes against her, the palm of his hand aches at once, and no one knows the reason why.From that time to this, he still has never touched her.This morning he sent the vanguard to demand palace maids to wait on her, and the vanguard was defeated by some Sun Xingzhe or other.。」:「?」:「My Great King flew into a rage, and that is why he sent me to deliver this declaration of war, to give battle with them tomorrow." Xingzhe said: "Why then is the Great King so vexed?" The little demon said: "He is indeed vexed over it just now.。」Go and sing him some Taoist ditty or other to ease his gloom."

Splendid Xingzhe — he cupped his hands and took his leave, walking off.The monster went on beating his gong and walking ahead as before.Xingzhe then turned murderous, drew out his cudgel, turned back around, and struck the little demon a blow on the back of the head — pitiful thing, it was struck so that his skull burst and blood and brains spattered out, the skin split, the neck snapped, and his life was ended then and there.:「Putting away his cudgel, he then regretted it, saying: "I was a bit too hasty — I never asked him what his name was.。」Oh well." He then took the declaration of war off the body and hid it inside his sleeve.He hid the yellow banner and bronze gong in the grass beside the road.As he was dragging the body by the foot, meaning to fling it down into the ravine, he heard a clank, and a gold-inlaid identity tag showed at the waist.:「On the tag were written words, reading: "One trusted junior officer, Youlai Youqu (Comes-and-Goes).Short of stature, with a pockmarked face and no beard.。」:「!」To be worn at all times; without the tag, he is an impostor." Xingzhe laughed and said: "So this fellow's name is Youlai Youqu — 'Comes-and-Goes' — well, this one blow of my cudgel has made it so he's Gone-and-Not-Coming!" He undid the identity tag and fastened it at his own waist.He was about to fling the corpse down, but then thought again of how venomous that smoke and fire had been.He did not dare go seeking out the cave for now, so he raised his cudgel, jabbed it into the little demon's chest, hoisted the body up into the air on it, and headed straight back to the kingdom, meaning to claim credit for the first feat.Watch him now, musing to himself all the way, he let out a whistle and arrived at the kingdom's border.

好行者,拱手抽身就走。那妖依旧敲锣前行。行者就行起凶来,掣出棒,复转身,望小妖脑后一下,可怜,就打得头烂血流浆迸出,皮开颈折命倾之。收了棍子,却又自悔道:「急了些儿,不曾问他叫做甚么名字。罢了。」却去取下他的战书,藏于袖内。将他黄旗、铜锣藏在路旁草里。因扯著脚要往涧下捽时,只听当的一声,腰间露出一个镶金的牙牌。牌上有字,写道:「心腹小校一名,有来有去。五短身材,扢挞脸,无须。长川悬挂,无牌即假。」行者笑道:「这厮名字叫做有来有去,这一棍子,打得有去无来!」将牙牌解下,带在腰间。欲要捽下尸骸,却又思量起烟火之毒。且不敢寻他洞府,即将棍子举起,著小妖胸前捣了一下,挑在空中,径回本国,且当报一个头功。你看他自思自念,唿哨一声,到了国界。

Before he had finished speaking, Xingzhe lowered his cloud and flung the monster down at the foot of the steps.:「。」:「?」:「。」:「。」:「?」:「?」:「。」:「。」Eight Rules ran up and gave it a jab with his rake, saying: "This is old Hog's achievement." Xingzhe said: "What achievement of yours is this?" Eight Rules said: "Don't try to cheat me out of it — I have proof: didn't you see, one jab of my rake made nine holes in him?" Xingzhe said: "Look and see whether he has a head or not." Eight Rules laughed and said: "So he really has no head — no wonder when I jabbed him he didn't even budge!" Xingzhe said: "Where is the master?" Eight Rules said: "He is in the hall talking with the king." Xingzhe said: "Go and ask him to come out, please."

:「Before he had finished speaking, the king too came down from the hall and, meeting Xingzhe, said: "Divine elder monk, you have returned!?」:「How did the matter of catching the monster go?" Xingzhe pointed with his hand, saying: "Isn't that a monster there at the foot of the steps?。」:「Old Monkey has beaten him to death." Seeing it, the king said: "That is indeed a monster's corpse, but it is not Saitaisui.Saitaisui — I have seen him myself twice with my own eyes — he stands eighteen feet tall, with shoulders as broad as five ordinary spans;his face gleams like gold, and his voice booms like thunder.?」:「How could he be this mean and stunted?" Xingzhe laughed and said: "Since Your Majesty recognizes him, indeed it is not he.。」:「This is a little demon sent to report matters, who ran into old Monkey, and I killed him first and carried him back to claim credit." The king was overjoyed, saying: "Good, good, good — this should count as the first achievement.I have often sent people here to spy and gather news, yet never once got anything solid.。」:「。」The moment the divine monk set out, he caught one and brought him back — truly divine power!" He called out: "Bring warmed wine, to congratulate the elder monk on his achievement."

:「?」:「Wukong said, "Let me ask you — that thing of his which releases fire, releases smoke, and releases sand, what treasure is it?"

Wukong said, "Fearsome, fearsome.I have felt it myself — it made me sneeze twice.?」:「But I wonder, where does he keep his bells?" The lady said, "How would he ever be willing to set them down?。」:「He simply keeps them tied at his waist; walking, standing, sitting, or lying down, they never leave his body." Wukong said, "If you still care for the kingdom of Zhuzi, and wish to be reunited with the king, you must set aside your worries and grief for now, put on a charming, joyful countenance, speak with him of husband-and-wife affection, and get him to hand the bells over for you to keep.。」Then, when I find my chance, I will steal them and subdue this demon; at that time I can take you back, so you and the king may be reunited like mated phoenixes and share peace together." The lady agreed to this.

这行者还变作心腹小校,开了宫门,唤进左右侍婢。娘娘叫:「有来有去,快往前亭请你大王来,与他说话。」好行者,应了一声,即至剥皮亭,对妖精道:「大王,圣宫娘娘有请。」妖王欢喜道:「娘娘常时只骂,怎么今日有请?」行者道:「那娘娘问朱紫国王之事,是我说:『他不要你了,他国中另扶了皇后。』娘娘听说,故此没了想头,方才命我来奉请。」妖王大喜道:「你却中用。待我剿除了他国,封你为个随朝的太宰。」

Wukong readily gave thanks for the favor, and hurried along with the demon king to the entrance of the rear palace.The lady welcomed him with a joyful face and reached out her hand to support him.:「The demon king bowed and bowed again as he drew back, saying, "I dare not, I dare not.。」:「。」:「。」:「I am most grateful for my lady's affection, but I fear my hand will hurt, and so I dare not draw close." The lady said, "Great King, please sit — I have something to say to you." The demon king said, "Speak freely, whatever it is." The lady said, "I have received the Great King's gracious love, and it is now three years, yet I have never once shared pillow and quilt with you.Surely it was a bond from a former life that made us husband and wife in this one.Yet who would have thought the Great King harbors thoughts of keeping me at a distance, and does not treat me as a wife.I recall that when I was empress in the kingdom of Zhuzi, whenever outer lands presented treasures as tribute, once the king had looked them over, he would always give them to the empress to keep.Here with you there is no treasure of any kind; all around, what is worn is sable fur, what is eaten is raw meat — when have I ever seen fine silk, brocade, gold, or pearls?There is nothing but hides spread out and blankets laid over.Or perhaps you do have some treasures, but because you keep me at a distance, you neither let me see them nor let me keep them for you.Take, for instance, the three bells I have heard you have — I imagine they must be some kind of treasure — why do you carry them with you whether walking or sitting?Why not just give them to me to keep, and take them out again whenever you need them — surely there would be no harm in that.This too would be fitting for a husband and wife, a token of trusting your innermost heart to me.?」:「To refuse me even this trust — what is that, if not keeping me at a distance?" The demon king laughed heartily and apologized, saying, "My lady's reproach is quite right, quite right.。」The treasure is right here; today I shall indeed hand it over for you to keep." And with that he lifted his robe to take out the treasure.Wukong, standing to one side, watched without blinking as the demon lifted two or three layers of clothing, revealing the three bells worn next to his skin.:「。」:「He untied them, stuffed the openings with a bit of cotton wadding, wrapped them in a piece of leopard skin as a bundle, and handed them to the lady, saying, "Though this thing is of little worth, you must guard it with care — on no account shake it." The lady took it in her hands and said, "I understand.。」:「。」I shall set it on this dressing table, where no one will disturb it." Then she called out, "Attendants, bring wine — the Great King and I shall share a happy hour together and drink a few cups." Hearing this, the attendant maids at once laid out fruit and vegetables, set out the meat of river-deer, deer, and hare, and poured coconut wine to offer them.The lady put on an air of bewitching charm, coaxing the demon spirit along.

When he came out to look, it turned out to be Youlai-Youqu holding the golden bells.:「?」:「。」The demon king strode forward and shouted, "You vile slave! How dare you steal my treasured golden bells and fool around with them here?" He shouted, "Seize him, seize him!" The Tiger General, Bear Commander, Leopard Head, Panther Marshal, Otter and Elephant, Grey Wolf, Cunning River-Deer, Sly Hare, Long Snake, Great Python, and Macaque before the gate, leading the host of demons, all crowded together at once.

Flustered, Wukong dropped the golden bells, revealed his true form, drew out his gold-banded As-You-Will cudgel, and, laying about with all his skill, struck out wildly in every direction.:「。」The demon king gathered up the treasure and issued the order, "Shut the front gate!" Hearing this, the demons obeyed — some shutting the gate, others fighting.Wukong, finding it hard to break free, put away his cudgel, shook his body, and transformed into a silly-looking fly, sticking himself to a stretch of stone wall untouched by the fire.:「。」:「?」:「。」:「。」The demons searched but could not find him, and reported, "Great King, the thief has gotten away, the thief has gotten away!" The demon king asked, "Did he go out through the gate?" The demons all said, "The front gate has been locked and bolted tight here — he could not have gone out." The demon king only said, "Search carefully." Some fetched water to douse the fire, others searched carefully, but there was no trace of him at all.:「The demon king said angrily, "What kind of thief is this?How very bold — transforming into the likeness of Youlai-Youqu, coming in to report to me, then staying at my side, and seizing the chance to steal my treasure.It's fortunate he hadn't yet carried it out of here.?」:「。」:「If he had taken it up to the mountaintop and it had met the heavenly wind, what would we have done?" The Tiger General stepped forward and said, "The Great King's vast good fortune matches Heaven's, and our own allotted span is not yet exhausted — that is why it was discovered." The Bear Commander stepped forward and said, "Great King, this thief is none other than that Sun Wukong who defeated our vanguard.。」:「。」:「。」He must have met Youlai-Youqu on the road, taken his life, seized his yellow banner, bronze gong, and ivory tally, transformed into his likeness, and come here to deceive the Great King." The demon king said, "Just so, just so — that is a reasonable view." He called out, "You underlings, search carefully and stay on guard — on no account open the gate and let him get away." And this is just what is meant by the verse that follows:

What it’s about

Disguised as one of the attendants demanded from Vermilion-Purple Kingdom, Wukong enters Sai Tai Sui's domain and learns about three golden bells worn by the demon. When shaken, they release fire, smoke and blinding sand, forcing Wukong back during their first confrontation. He also discovers that the abducted Golden-Sage Palace Lady has remained physically untouchable because a protective celestial garment covers her body.

Wukong changes into a tiny insect and speaks privately with the queen, assuring her that the king lives and that rescue is near. He then impersonates a trusted little demon and persuades Sai Tai Sui to surrender the bells for inspection, substituting counterfeits while hiding the genuine weapons. The theft reverses the balance of power, but the demon has not yet been returned to his owner and the queen has not yet reached home. The chapter ends with Wukong holding the means for the coming resolution.

When it was written 背景

The golden bells belong to the class of magical objects that make direct combat useless until provenance and operating rules are understood. Fire, smoke and sand turn battlefield elements into portable authority; stealing the bells matters more than striking their wearer. The queen's protective garment meanwhile complicates the captivity plot by preserving bodily distance without diminishing three years of coercion and separation. Learners can track Wukong's changes of scale and identity—female attendant, insect and demon servant—as stages of intelligence gathering. Like the counterfeit Plantain Fan and false Little Thunderclap, this episode asks who possesses an authentic object and who can recognize a substitution; here Wukong finally controls the copy.
