As Sanzang was travelling along, he suddenly saw a towering mountain, its peaks piercing the blue sky — truly high enough to graze the stars and block out the sun.:「?」:「:『。』The elder's heart filled with fear, and he called to Wukong, saying, "Look how lofty that mountain ahead rises — I wonder whether there is a path through it or not?" Xingzhe laughed and said, "Master, what kind of talk is that? As the old saying goes: 'Where the mountain is high, there is a traveler's road; where the water is deep, there is a ferryman.' How could there fail to be a way through?。」Set your mind at ease and go forward." Hearing this, the elder's face bloomed with joy; he raised his whip and urged his horse onward, straight up the high cliff.

三藏正然行处,忽见一座高山,峰插碧空,真个是摩星碍日。长老心中害怕,叫悟空道:「你看前面这山十分高耸,但不知有路通行否?」行者笑道:「师父说那里话,自古道:『山高自有客行路,水深自有渡船人。』岂无通达之理?可放心前去。」长老闻言,喜笑花生,扬鞭策马而进,径上高岩。

They had not gone many li when they saw an old man, his temple-hair wild and tangled, his white hair fluttering and disheveled;his beard sparse and thin, its silvery strands stirring in the wind;a string of prayer beads hung about his neck, and in his hand he held a staff carved with a dragon's head.:「He stood far off on the mountain slope, calling out loudly, "Elder bound west, halt your fine steed a moment and draw tight your jade bridle.。」On this mountain there is a band of demons who have devoured all the people of the mortal world — you must not go forward." Hearing this, Sanzang was greatly startled and lost his color.First, the horse's footing was uneven; second, he sat unsteady in the carved saddle — with a thud he tumbled off the horse, and unable to struggle up, lay in the grass groaning.:「。」:「?」:「。」:「。」:「。」:「。」Xingzhe came up and helped him rise, saying, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I am here." The elder said, "Did you hear that old man on the high cliff report that there is a band of demons on this mountain who have devoured all the people of the mortal world? Who dares go and ask him the plain truth of it?" Xingzhe said, "Just sit here, and let me go ask him." Sanzang said, "Your face is ugly and your speech coarse — I fear you will offend him, and get no true word out of him." Xingzhe laughed and said, "I'll turn myself into something handsomer and go ask him." Sanzang said, "Transform yourself and let me see." The splendid Great Sage formed a mudra, shook himself, and changed into a clean, tidy little monk, truly with fine eyebrows and clear eyes, a round head and proper face;in his movements there was an air of refinement, and when he opened his mouth there was no trace of vulgar speech.:「?」:「。」:「He shook out his brocade robe, strode forward, and said to Tang Seng, "Master, do you see — have I transformed well?" Sanzang was overjoyed at the sight and said, "Well transformed." Bajie said, "How could it not be good?It's just that it puts the rest of us to shame.。」Old Zhu could tumble about for two or three more years and still never turn out so handsome as that."

:「。」:「?」:「The splendid Great Sage left them behind, went straight up to the old man, bowed, and said, "Venerable elder, this poor monk greets you." Seeing how handsome and refined he looked, so young and light of frame, the old man, half-inclined to answer and half not, returned his greeting, patted him on the head with his hand, and asked with a smile, "Little monk, where do you come from?" Xingzhe said, "We come from the Land of Tang in the East, bound especially for the Western Heaven to worship the Buddha and seek the scriptures.Just now, arriving here, we heard you report that there are demons about. My master is timid and fearful, and sent me to ask: just what kind of demon is it, that it dares block the road like this?。」:「I beg you, venerable elder, to explain it to me in detail, so that I may go and banish him." The old man laughed and said, "You are a young little monk, and do not know good from bad — your words are reckless and unguarded.?」:「Those demons are of vast and formidable power — how dare you speak so easily of banishing them?" Xingzhe laughed and said, "By what you say, it seems you have some wish to shield them — you must be kin to them, or a close neighbor and bosom friend;?」:「otherwise, why would you build up their might and praise their valor, and refuse to speak from the heart about their true origins?" The old man nodded and laughed, saying, "This monk really has a glib tongue.I suppose you travel about with your master, learning some tricks of magic here and there, perhaps able to bind spirits and ghosts, and help households ward off evil and secure their homes.。」:「?」:「But you have never yet met a truly fierce demon." Xingzhe said, "How fierce are they?" The old man said, "That demon has only to send a single letter to Vulture Peak, and all five hundred arhats come out to receive it;a single note sent up to the Heavenly Palace, and all eleven great stellar lords show him respect.The dragon kings of the Four Seas have been his friends, and the immortals of the Eight Grottoes often gather with him;。」the Ten Kings of the underworld address him as brother, and the local gods and city gods cherish him as guest and companion."

:「Hearing this, the Great Sage could not help bursting into loud laughter, and taking hold of the old man's arm, said, "Say no more, say no more.If that demon calls my young disciple brother and friend, then he can't amount to much after all.。」:「If he knew it was I, little monk, who had come, he would pack up and flee that very night." The old man said, "Little monk, you talk nonsense — that's no way for a person to speak.?」:「Which divine being is your young disciple, then?" Xingzhe laughed and said, "To tell you the truth and hide nothing, this little monk's ancestral home is the Water Curtain Cave on the Mountain of Flowers and Fruit in the Aolai Kingdom. My surname is Sun, my given name is Wukong.In years past I too was once a demon, and did great deeds.Once, after gathering with a host of demons, I drank a few too many cups of wine and fell asleep, and in my dream I saw two men come with a warrant to summon me down to the underworld.In a sudden rage I struck the ghost clerks with my golden-hooped rod, terrifying the King of Hell, and very nearly overturned the Senluo Hall itself.。」:「This so frightened the judge in charge of the records that he brought out paper, and the Ten Kings of Hell signed their names upon it, begging me to spare them the beating, and willingly took me as their young 'little brother.'" Hearing this, the old man said, "Amitabha Buddha!。」:「。」:「?」:「。」:「。」:「This monk has spoken such extravagant words that he'll surely never grow any bigger." Xingzhe said, "Sir, being this size is quite enough for me." The old man said, "How old are you?" Xingzhe said, "Guess." The old man said, "Seven or eight years old, I'd say." Xingzhe laughed and said, "Ten thousand times seven or eight years old.。」:「?」:「。」Let me show you my old true face — but don't be alarmed." The old man said, "How could you have another face?" Xingzhe said, "This little monk truly has seventy-two different faces."

大圣闻言,忍不住呵呵大笑,用手扯著老者道:「不要说,不要说。那妖精与我后生小厮为兄弟、朋友,也不见十分高作。若知是我小和尚来啊,他连夜就搬起身去了。」公公道:「你这小和尚胡说,不当人子。那个神圣是你的后生小厮?」行者笑道:「实不瞒你说,我小和尚祖居傲来国花果山水帘洞,姓孙,名悟空。当年也曾做过妖精,干过大事。曾因会众魔,多饮了几杯酒睡著,梦中见二人将批勾我去到阴司。一时怒发,将金箍棒打伤鬼判,諕倒阎王,几乎掀翻了森罗殿。吓得那掌案的判官拿纸,十阎王签名画字,教我饶他打,情愿与我做后生小厮。」那公公闻说道:「阿弥陀佛!这和尚说了这过头话,莫想再长得大了。」行者道:「官儿,似我这般大也够了。」公公道:「你年几岁了?」行者道:「你猜猜看。」老者道:「有七八岁罢了。」行者笑道:「有一万个七八岁。我把旧嘴脸拿出来你看看,你却莫怪。」公公道:「怎么又有个嘴脸?」行者道:「我小和尚果有七十二副嘴脸哩。」

The old man, not understanding the hint, kept right on questioning him.So he wiped his face once, and at once revealed his true form: jutting fangs and a protruding mouth, two thighs glowing red, a tiger-skin skirt tied about his waist, a golden-hooped rod gripped in his hand, standing there beneath the stone cliff just like a living Thunder God.At the sight, the old man's face lost all color from fright, his legs went weak and numb, and unable to stand steady, he fell with a thud;scrambling up again, he stumbled and fell once more.:「The Great Sage stepped forward and said, "Venerable sir, don't be needlessly alarmed — we may look fierce, but our hearts are kind. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid.Just now you were kind enough to report that there are demons about.Just how many demons are there, truly?。」Please trouble yourself further to tell me, so that I may properly thank you." The old man, trembling all over, could not speak a word, and pretended to be deaf, not answering a single question.

公公拄著杖,对八戒说:「此山叫做八百里狮驼岭。中间有座狮驼洞。洞里有三个魔头。」八戒啐了一声:「你这老儿却也多心,三个妖魔也费心劳力的来报遭信?」公公道:「你不怕么?」八戒道:「不瞒你说,这三个妖魔,我师兄一棍就打死一个;我一钯就筑死一个。我还有个师弟,他一降妖杖又打死一个:三个都打死,我师父就过去了,有何难哉?」那老者笑道:「这和尚不知深浅。那三个魔头,神通广大得紧哩。他手下小妖,南岭上有五千,北岭上有五千;东路口有一万,西路口有一万;巡哨的有四五千,把门的也有一万;烧火的无数,打柴的也无数:共计算有四万七八千。这都是有名字带牌儿的,专在此吃人。」

Hearing this, the idiot came trembling back, and drawing near Tang Seng, without a word first set down his rake and squatted there relieving himself.:「?」:「Seeing this, Xingzhe shouted, "You don't answer, but squat there doing what?" Bajie said, "I was so frightened the shit came out of me.。」:「。」:「?」:「There's nothing more to say now — let's each save our own skin and be quick about it." Xingzhe said, "You idiot fool — when I went to ask, I wasn't the least bit frightened, but you go and ask and come back in such a panic, out of your wits." The elder said, "What exactly did he say?" Bajie said, "That old man said: this mountain is called the eight-hundred-li Shituo Mountain.In the middle of it lies the Shituo Cave.In the cave there are three old demons, with forty-eight thousand lesser demons, whose sole business is devouring people there.If we so much as brush past the edge of that mountain, we'll become food in his mouth.。」:「?」:「There's no thought of getting through." Hearing this, Sanzang trembled, his hair standing on end with fright, and said, "Wukong, what shall we do?" Xingzhe laughed and said, "Master, set your heart at ease, it's no great matter.I expect there really are a few demons here, it's just that the people of this place are timid, and so they exaggerate them into many people and great numbers, and frighten themselves with their own tales.。」:「I am here." Bajie said, "Brother, what kind of talk is that?I am not like you — what I asked was the plain truth, with not one word of falsehood in it.?」:「The whole mountain, the whole valley, is full of demons — how can we possibly go forward?" Xingzhe laughed and said, "Look at the idiot's face — there's no need for such needless alarm.。」:「As for a mountain and valley full of demons, old Sun need only make one pass with his rod, and by midnight they'll all be wiped clean out." Bajie said, "Shameless, shameless — don't talk big.?」:「?」:「。」:「It would take seven or eight days just to call the roll of those demons — how could you possibly wipe them all out?" Xingzhe said, "How do you think it should be done?" Bajie said, "Whether you grab them, tie them up, or use a spell to freeze them in place, none of those could be done so fast." Xingzhe laughed and said, "There's no need for any grabbing, seizing, or binding.:『!』I'll take this rod of mine and pull it out at both ends, calling, 'Grow!' and it will at once be forty zhang long.:『!』Then I'll give it a shake and call, 'Thicken!' and it will at once be eight zhang around in girth.Roll it once across the south of the mountain, and it kills five thousand;roll it once across the north of the mountain, and it kills five thousand;。」:「。」:「roll it once from east to west, and I daresay forty or fifty thousand will be crushed to a bloody pulp." Bajie said, "Brother, if you roll it out like flattening dough like that, then perhaps by the second watch it will all be finished." Sha Seng, standing by, laughed and said, "Master, with Elder Brother's such divine power, what is there to fear from them?。」Please mount up and let us go on." Seeing them discuss their powers this way, Tang Seng had no choice but to set his mind at ease, mount his horse, and press onward.

As they traveled along, they found that the old man who had brought the warning had disappeared.:「。」:「。」Sha Seng said, "He must have been a demon himself, deliberately borrowing the tiger's might like the fox, coming to deliver a false warning meant to frighten us." Xingzhe said, "Don't be alarmed — let me go and take a look." The splendid Great Sage leapt up onto a high peak, looked all about, and saw no trace of anyone; turning quickly, he saw bright colored clouds glowing in the sky, and at once rode his cloud up to look, and found it was none other than Venus, the Great White Planet.:「Coming up beside him, he seized him by the hand and, calling him again and again by his childhood name, said, "Li Changgeng, Li Changgeng, you are truly wicked.?」:「If you had something to say, you should have come and told me to my face — why disguise yourself as an old mountain man to give old Sun a fright?" The Venus Star hastily made a bow and said, "Great Sage, forgive me, forgive me, for bringing the warning so late.This demon truly is of vast and formidable power, his might towering and fierce.If you rely on your transformations, your cleverness and cunning, you may well get through;。」:「but if you grow careless in the least, it will truly be hard to pass." Xingzhe thanked him, saying, "I am grateful, I am grateful.。」:「。」Since this place is truly hard to pass, I hope you, old star, will go up to Heaven and speak to the Jade Emperor for me, to lend me some heavenly troops to help old Sun out." The Venus Star said, "Certainly, certainly — just send word by mouth, and even a hundred thousand heavenly troops can be had."

The elder pressed his palms together and said, "Disciple, hurry after him and ask whether there is another road elsewhere, so that we may turn and go around." Xingzhe said, "There is no going around.?」:「?」:「This mountain runs straight through for eight hundred li, and there's no telling how much further it extends all around — how could we possibly go around it?"

Xingzhe said, "Don't cry, don't cry — one cry and you turn into a spineless coward.:『。』。」:「?」:「In this warning of his there must be a good deal of exaggeration — he only meant for us to take extra care. As the saying truly goes: 'What is reported is always overstated.' Just dismount for now and sit a while." Bajie said, "What more is there to discuss?" Xingzhe said, "Nothing much to discuss.Just stay here and look after the master carefully, and Sha Seng, keep good watch over the luggage and the horse.。」:「。」:「Let old Sun go up the ridge first and scout about, to see how many demons there are altogether in front and behind. I'll catch one and question him in detail, make him write out a confession, and draw up a full roster, checking every single one of them, old and young, and order him to shut the cave gate and not block our road, so that the master may pass through quietly and undisturbed — that will show what old Sun is really capable of." Sha Seng could only say, "Be careful, be careful." Xingzhe laughed and said, "No need to tell me that.。」On this trip of mine, even the Eastern Ocean itself would have to part and open a road for me, and even an iron mountain wrapped in silver would have to be smashed through."

大圣别了金星,按落云头,见了三藏道:「适才那个老儿,原是太白星来与我们报信的。」长老合掌道:「徒弟,快赶上他,问他那里另有个路,我们转了去罢。」行者道:「转不得。此山径过有八百里,四周围不知更有多少路哩,怎么转得?」三藏闻言,止不住眼中流泪道:「徒弟,似此艰难,怎生拜佛?」行者道:「莫哭,莫哭,一哭便脓包行了。他这报信,必有几分虚话,只是要我们著意留心,诚所谓:『以告者,过也。』你且下马来坐著。」八戒道:「又有甚商议?」行者道:「没甚商议。你且在这里用心保守师父,沙僧好生看守行李、马匹。等老孙先上岭打听打听,看前后共有多少妖怪,拿住一个,问他个详细,教他写个执结,开个花名,把他老老小小一一查明,吩咐他关了洞门,不许阻路,却请师父静静悄悄的过去,方显得老孙手段。」沙僧只教:「仔细,仔细。」行者笑道:「不消嘱付。我这一去,就是东洋大海也汤开路,就是铁裹银山也撞透门。」

The splendid Great Sage gave a long whistle, mounted his somersault cloud, and leapt up onto the high peak.Grasping vines and creepers, he made his way across the level ground of the mountain to look around, and found the mountain silent and empty, with no one in sight.:「Suddenly he blurted out, "A mistake, a mistake — I should not have let that old Venus fellow go. He must have been trying to frighten me on purpose.How could there be any demons here at all??」If they were really here, out enjoying themselves in the wind, they would surely be practicing with spears and clubs, drilling in their martial arts — why is there not a single one to be seen?" Just as he was pondering this to himself, he heard from behind the mountain the clang and clatter of gongs and bells, the crackling snap of clappers.Turning quickly to look, he saw it was in fact a lesser demon, shouldering a banner marked with the character 'Command,' bells hanging at his waist, beating a wooden clapper in his hand, walking from north to south.Looking closely, he found the creature stood twelve feet tall.:「Xingzhe secretly laughed and thought, "He must be a courier soldier, probably delivering official documents or dispatches.。」Let me go and listen to him a bit, and hear what he has to say."

好大圣,唿哨一声,纵觔斗云,跳上高峰。扳藤负葛,平山观看,那山里静悄无人。忽失声道:「错了,错了,不该放这金星老儿去了.他原来恐諕我。这里那有个甚么妖精?他就出来跳风顽耍,必定拈枪弄棒,操演武艺,如何没有一个?」正自家揣度,只听得山背后叮叮当当、辟辟剥剥梆铃之声。急回头看处,原来是个小妖儿,掮著一杆「令」字旗,腰间悬著铃子,手里敲著梆子,从北向南而走。仔细看他,有一丈二尺的身子。行者暗笑道:「他必是个铺兵,想是送公文下报帖的。且等我去听他一听,看他说些甚话。」

Splendid Great Sage — he formed a hand seal, recited a spell, shook himself, and transformed into a fly, lightly landing on the creature's hat, tilting his ear to listen.:「。」:「He saw the little demon walk onto the main road, striking a clapper and shaking a bell, muttering as he went, "We who patrol the mountain must each be careful and guard against Sun Wukong — he can transform into a fly." Hearing this, Xingzhe was secretly startled and suspicious, thinking, "Has this fellow seen me??」If he hasn't seen me, how does he know my name, and know that I can turn into a fly?" As it happened, the little demon had not actually seen him at all — it was simply that the demon king had, for some reason, given him these words to recite, which were mere rumor, and had him chant them like this without real cause.:「Not knowing this, Xingzhe instead suspected the demon had seen him, and was about to draw out his cudgel to strike him, but then stopped himself, thinking, "I recall that when Bajie questioned the Gold Star, he said there were three old demons, and some forty-seven or forty-eight thousand lesser demons.As for demons like this one, even a few tens of thousands more wouldn't matter much.But I don't yet know how great the powers of these three old demons are.。」Let me question him first — there will still be time to act afterward."

好大圣,捻著诀,念个咒,摇身一变,变做个苍蝇儿,轻轻飞在他帽子上,侧耳听之。只见那小妖走上大路,敲著梆,摇著铃,口里作念道:「我等巡山的,各人要谨慎隄防孙行者,他会变苍蝇。」行者闻言,暗自惊疑道:「这厮看见我了?若未看见,怎么就知我的名字,又知我会变苍蝇?」原来那小妖也不曾见他,只是那魔头不知怎么就吩咐他这话,却是个谣言,著他这等胡念。行者不知,反疑他看见,就要取出棒来打他,却又停住,暗想道:「曾记得八戒问金星时,他说老妖三个,小妖有四万七八千名。似这小妖,再多几万,也不打紧。却不知这三个老魔有多大手段。等我问他一问,动手不迟。」

Splendid Great Sage — do you know how he went about questioning him?He jumped down off the demon's hat and perched atop a tree, letting the little demon go on ahead a few steps.Then he quickly turned and shifted himself, also transforming into a little demon, striking a clapper and shaking a bell and shouldering a flag just as the other did, wearing identical clothes, only some three to five inches taller, and muttering the same words as he went.:「。」:「?」:「?」:「。」:「He hurried up and called out, "Fellow traveler, wait for me a moment." The little demon turned back and said, "Where do you come from?" Xingzhe laughed and said, "Good fellow, don't you even recognize one of your own household?" The little demon said, "There's no one like you in our household." Xingzhe said, "How can there be no me?。」:「。」:「Look closely and see." The little demon said, "Your face is unfamiliar — I don't recognize you, I don't recognize you." Xingzhe said, "Of course my face seems unfamiliar.。」:「I'm one of the fire-tenders, so you'd have little occasion to know me." The little demon shook his head and said, "No, no.。」:「。」:「。」Among the fire-tending brothers in our cave, there's not one with such a pointed mouth as yours." Xingzhe thought to himself, "This mouth of mine has turned out a bit too pointed." He lowered his head at once, rubbed his mouth with his hand, and said, "My mouth isn't pointed at all." And indeed, it was no longer pointed.:「The little demon said, "Just now your mouth was pointed — how did one rub make it not pointed anymore?You're a suspicious fellow, very hard to place — you don't belong to our household.I hardly know you, hardly know you — this is suspicious, most suspicious.Our Great King's household rules are very strict — fire-tenders only tend fires, and mountain patrols only patrol the mountain.?」:「Surely he wouldn't have you tend fires and also patrol the mountain?" Xingzhe, glib of tongue, seized the opening and said, "You don't know the reason.。」The Great King saw that I tended the fire well, so he promoted me to patrol the mountain."

好大圣,你道他怎么去问?跳下他的帽子来,钉在树头上,让那小妖先行几步。急转身腾那,也变做个小妖儿,照依他敲著梆,摇著铃,掮著旗,一般衣服,只是比他略长了三五寸,口里也那般念著。赶上前叫道:「走路的,等我一等。」那小妖回头道:「你是那里来的?」行者笑道:「好人呀,一家人也不认得?」小妖道:「我家没你呀。」行者道:「怎的没我?你认认看。」小妖道:「面生,认不得,认不得。」行者道:「可知道面生。我是烧火的,你会得我少。」小妖摇头道:「没有,没有。我洞里就是烧火的那些兄弟,也没有这个嘴尖的。」行者暗想道:「这个嘴好的变尖了些了。」即低头,把手侮著嘴揉一揉道:「我的嘴不尖啊。」真个就不尖了。那小妖道:「你刚才是个尖嘴,怎么揉一揉就不尖了?疑惑人子,大不好认,不是我一家的。少会少会,可疑可疑。我那大王家法甚严,烧火的只管烧火,巡山的只管巡山。终不然教你烧火,又教你来巡山?」行者口乖,就趁过来道:「你不知道。大王见我烧得火好,就升我来巡山。」

:「The little demon said, "Very well then;among us mountain patrollers, each squad has forty members, and there are ten squads, four hundred in all, each with his own age and appearance, each with his own name.The Great King, fearing we might mix up the squads and make roll call difficult, gave each of us a token as a sign.?」Do you have a token?" Xingzhe, having seen only how the demon was dressed and how he made his report, had transformed himself to match his appearance;but since he had not seen the demon's token, he had none on his own person.:「Splendid Great Sage — rather than admit he had none, he readily agreed at once, saying, "How could I not have a token?It's just that I received a new one only a moment ago.。」Show me yours first." The little demon, having no idea of this ruse, at once lifted up his clothing, revealing a gold-lacquered token worn close against his skin, strung on a woolen cord, and pulled it out for Xingzhe to see.」。Xingzhe saw that the back of the token read, in gold, "Awesome Power Suppresses All Demons," and on the front were three characters in regular script: "Xiaozuanfeng.":「。」:「。」:「!」」。He thought to himself, "No need to ask further — anyone on mountain patrol must have the character 'feng' at the end of his name." So he said, "Go ahead and put your clothes back down, and let me get my token to show you." He turned around, reached behind himself, plucked out a fine hair from the tip of his tail, twirled it between his fingers, and cried, "Change!" It at once became a gold-lacquered token, strung likewise on a green woolen cord, inscribed with three characters in regular script: "Zongzuanfeng."He took it out and handed it over for the demon to see.:「』。」:「The little demon was greatly startled and said, "All of us are called Xiaozuanfeng — how is it that you alone are called this 'Zongzuanfeng'?"

小妖道:「也罢;我们这巡山的,一班有四十名,十班共四百名,各自年貌,各自名色。大王怕我们乱了班次,不好点卯,一家与我们一个牌儿为号。你可有牌儿?」行者只见他那般打扮,那般报事,遂照他的模样变了;因不曾看见他的牌儿,所以身上没有。好大圣,更不说没有,就满口应承道:「我怎么没牌?但只是刚才领的新牌。拿你的出来我看。」那小妖那里知这个机关,即揭起衣服,贴身带著个金漆牌儿,穿条绒线绳儿,扯与行者看看。行者见那牌背是个「威镇诸魔」的金牌,正面有三个真字,是「小钻风」。他却心中暗想道:「不消说了,但是巡山的,必有个『风』字坠脚。」便道:「你且放下衣走过,等我拿牌儿你看。」即转身,插下手,将尾巴梢儿的小毫毛拔下一根,捻他把,叫:「变!」即变做个金漆牌儿,也穿上个绿绒绳儿,上书三个真字,乃「总钻风」。拿出来,递与他看了。小妖大惊道:「我们都叫做个小钻风,偏你又叫做个甚么『总钻风』。」行者干事找绝,说话合宜,就道:「你实不知。大王见我烧得火好,把我升个巡风;又与我个新牌,叫做『总巡风』,教我管你这一班四十名兄弟也。」那妖闻言,即忙唱喏道:「长官,长官,新点出来的,实是面生,言语冲撞,莫怪。」行者还著礼笑道:「怪便不怪你,只是一件:见面钱却要哩,每人拿出五两来罢。」小妖道:「长官不要忙,待我向南岭头会了我这一班的人,一总打发罢。」行者道:「既如此,我和你同去。」那小妖真个前走,大圣随后相跟。

Before they had gone many miles, they suddenly saw a brush-shaped peak.Why was it called Brush Peak?On the mountaintop rose a single spire, some forty or fifty feet high, resembling a writing brush set upright in its stand — hence the name.Xingzhe came up to it, gave his tail a curl, leapt up, and sat himself on the very tip of the peak.:「。」:「。」:「?」:「。」:「?」:「。」:「?」:「。」:「He called out, "Zuanfeng, all of you come here." The little Zuanfengs below bowed and said, "Sir, at your service." Xingzhe said, "Do you know why the Great King singled me out for this appointment?" The little demons said, "We do not know." Xingzhe said, "The Great King wishes to eat the Tang Monk, but fears that Sun Wukong, whose magic powers are vast, might transform himself — worried he could turn into a Xiaozuanfeng and come here to spy out the roads and gather information — so he promoted me to Zongzuanfeng, to come and examine whether any among your squad are impostors." The little Zuanfengs answered again and again, "Sir, we are all genuine." Xingzhe said, "If you're genuine, then you surely know what powers the Great King possesses?" The little Zuanfeng said, "I know." Xingzhe said, "If you know, tell me quickly and let me hear it.If what you say matches what I know, then you are genuine;。」:「。」:「。」:「?」:「but if you're off even a little, then you're an impostor, and I will certainly take you before the Great King for punishment." The little Zuanfeng, seeing him perched up high, putting on such clever airs and barking orders, had no choice but to answer honestly: "Our Great King's magic powers are vast, his abilities supreme — in a single mouthful he once swallowed a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers." Hearing this, Xingzhe let out a snort and said, "You're an impostor." The little Zuanfeng panicked and said, "Sir, my lord, I am genuine — how can you say I'm an impostor?" Xingzhe said, "If you're truly genuine, why do you talk such nonsense??」:「How large can the Great King's body possibly be, that in one mouthful he could swallow a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers?" The little Zuanfeng said, "So you really don't know, sir.Our Great King can transform himself — when he wishes to be large, he can fill up the whole of heaven; when he wishes to be small, he can shrink to the size of a mustard seed.That year, when the Queen Mother held the Grand Peach Banquet and invited all the immortals, she failed to send our Great King an invitation. Our Great King, intent on contending for the heavens, was met with a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers sent by the Jade Emperor to subdue him.So our Great King transformed his true body, opened his mouth wide as a city gate, and swallowed them in with all his might.This so terrified the heavenly soldiers that they dared not engage in battle, and shut the Southern Gate of Heaven.。」:「。」:「?」:「That is how he came to swallow a hundred thousand troops in one mouthful." Hearing this, Xingzhe secretly laughed and thought, "If we're talking about feats like that, old Monkey has done such things himself." Then he spoke up again, "What powers does the Second Great King have?" The little Zuanfeng said, "The Second Great King stands thirty feet tall, with silkworm-shaped eyebrows, phoenix eyes, a voice like a beautiful woman's, teeth like a carrying-pole, and a nose like a flood dragon's.。」:「。」:「?」:「When he fights with someone, all it takes is one sweep of his nose to snatch them up — even one with an iron back and bronze body would lose both soul and spirit." Xingzhe thought, "A demon who snatches people with his nose should be easy enough to catch." Then he spoke again, "And how many powers does the Third Great King have?" The little Zuanfeng said, "Our Third Great King is no ordinary monster of the mortal world — his title is the Roc of Ten Thousand Li's Cloud Journey.When he moves, he stirs the winds and churns the seas, surging from the north and soaring toward the south.He carries with him a treasure called the Vase of Yin and Yang.。」Should he put a person inside that vase, within a short while they would be melted into a pool of fluid."

不数里,忽见一座笔峰。何以谓之笔峰?那山头上长出一条峰来,约有四五丈高,如笔插在架上一般,故以为名。行者到边前,把尾巴掬一掬,跳上去,坐在峰尖儿上。叫道:「钻风,都过来。」那些小钻风在下面躬身道:「长官,伺候。」行者道:「你可知大王点我出来之故?」小妖道:「不知。」行者道:「大王要吃唐僧,只怕孙行者神通广大,说他会变化,只恐他变作小钻风,来这里屣著路径,打探消息,把我升作总钻风,来查勘你们这一班可有假的?」小钻风连声应道:「长官,我们俱是真的。」行者道:「你既是真的,大王有甚本事,你可晓得?」小钻风道:「我晓得。」行者道:「你晓得,快说来我听。如若说得合著我,便是真的;若说差了一些儿,便是假的,我定拿去见大王处治。」那小钻风见他坐在高处,弄獐弄智,呼呼喝喝的,没奈何,只得实说道:「我大王神通广大,本事高强,一口曾吞了十万天兵。」行者闻说,吐出一声道:「你是假的。」小钻风慌了道:「长官老爷,我是真的,怎么说是假的?」行者道:「你既是真的,如何胡说?大王身子能有多大,一口就吞了十万天兵?」小钻风道:「长官原来不知。我大王会变化,要大能撑天堂,要小就如菜子。因那年王母娘娘设蟠桃大会,邀请诸仙,他不曾具柬来请,我大王意欲争天,被玉皇差十万天兵来降我大王。是我大王变化法身,张开大口,似城门一般,用力吞将去。諕得众天兵不敢交锋,关了南天门。故此是一口曾吞十万兵。」行者闻言,暗笑道:「若是讲手头之话,老孙也曾干过。」又应声道:「二大王有何本事?」小钻风道:「二大王身高三丈,卧蚕眉,丹凤眼,美人声,匾担牙,鼻似蛟龙。若与人争斗,只消一鼻子卷去,就是铁背铜身,也就魂亡魄丧。」行者道:「鼻子卷人的妖精也好拿。」又应声道:「三大王也有几多手段?」小钻风道:「我三大王不是凡间之怪物,名号云程万里鹏。行动时,抟风运海,振北图南。随身有一件儿宝贝,唤做阴阳二气瓶。假若是把人装在瓶中,一时三刻,化为浆水。」

:「。」:「Hearing this, Xingzhe was secretly alarmed and thought, "The demons themselves I need not fear, but I must be careful to guard against that vase of his." Then he spoke up again, "You've described the powers of all three Great Kings without error — it matches exactly what I already knew.?」:「?」:「But which of the Great Kings is it who wants to eat the Tang Monk?" The little Zuanfeng said, "Sir, don't you know?" Xingzhe barked, "I know somewhat less of it than you.。」:「It's precisely because I feared you lot might not know the details that I was ordered to come and question you thoroughly about it." The little Zuanfeng said, "Our First Great King and Second Great King have long dwelt at Shituo Ridge, in Shituo Cave.The Third Great King does not live here — his original home lies some four hundred li to the west of this place.Over there stands a city called the Kingdom of Shituo.Five hundred years ago he devoured the king of that city along with all his civil and military officials, and every man and woman, young and old, throughout the city was likewise eaten clean away — and so he seized the kingdom's realm for himself.Now it is populated entirely by demons.At some point he learned that the Tang court of the Eastern Lands had sent a monk to fetch scriptures from the Western Heaven, and heard it said that this Tang Monk was a virtuous man who had cultivated himself through ten lifetimes, such that anyone who ate a piece of his flesh would gain long life and eternal youth.。」But fearing that the monk's disciple Sun Wukong was exceedingly formidable, and that he alone would find it hard to manage, he came straight here to swear brotherhood with our two Great Kings, so that with one mind and joined purpose the three of them together might capture that Tang Monk."

行者听说,心中暗惊道:「妖魔倒也不怕,只是仔细防他瓶儿。」又应声道:「三个大王的本事,你倒也说得不差,与我知道的一样。但只是那个大王要吃唐僧哩?」小钻风道:「长官,你不知道?」行者喝道:「我比你不知些儿。因恐汝等不知底细,吩咐我来著实盘问你哩。」小钻风道:「我大大王与二大王久住在狮驼岭狮驼洞。三大王不在这里住,他原住处离此西下有四百里远近。那厢有座城,唤做狮驼国。他五百年前吃了这城国王及文武官僚,满城大小男女也尽被他吃了干净,因此上夺了他的江山。如今尽是些妖怪。不知那一年打听得东土唐朝差一个僧人去西天取经,说那唐僧乃十世修行的好人,有人吃他一块肉,就延寿长生不老。只因怕他一个徒弟孙行者十分利害,自家一个难为,径来此处与我这两个大王结为兄弟,合意同心,打伙儿捉那个唐僧也。」

:「Hearing this, Xingzhe grew furious at heart, thinking, "This vile fiend is utterly outrageous.?」I am escorting the Tang Monk toward the attainment of true fruition — how dare he scheme to devour my charge?" With a growl of hatred he gnashed his steel teeth, drew out his iron cudgel, leapt down from the high peak, and brought the club crashing down once upon the little demon's head — alas, it was flattened at once into a lump of flesh.:「Seeing this himself, he could not help feeling a pang of regret and said, "Ai!He meant well enough, telling me all these matters of his household so freely — how could I finish him off with a single blow like that?。」Ah well, ah well — what's done can't be helped either way." Splendid Great Sage — it was only for his master's sake, to clear the road ahead, that he had no choice but to do this deed.He then untied the demon's token and fastened it at his own waist, shouldered the banner marked "Order" onto his back, hung the bell at his waist, and took up the clapper to strike in his hand.Facing into the wind he formed a hand seal, murmured an incantation, shook himself, and transformed into the very likeness of the little Zuanfeng.Then he turned his steps back the way he had come, retracing the old path in search of the cave, to spy out the truth of those three old demon kings.Truly it was thus:

行者闻言,心中大怒道:「这泼魔十分无礼。我保唐僧成正果,他怎么算计要吃我的人?」恨一声,咬响钢牙,掣出铁棒,跳下高峰,把棍子望小妖头上砑了一砑,可怜,就砑得像一个肉陀。自家见了,又不忍道:「咦!他倒是个好意,把些家常话儿都与我说了,我怎么却这一下子就结果了他?也罢,也罢,左右是左右。」好大圣,只为师父阻路,没奈何干出这件事来。就把他牌儿解下,带在自家腰里,将「令」字旗掮在背上,腰间挂了铃,手里敲著梆子。迎风捻个诀,口里念个咒语,摇身一变,变的就像小钻风模样。拽回步,径转旧路,找寻洞府,去打探那三个老妖魔的虚实。这正是:

He plunged into the deep mountains, following the familiar road.Just as he was walking along, he suddenly heard the sound of men shouting and horses neighing.Raising his eyes to look, he saw that at the mouth of Shituo Cave there stood arrayed some ten thousand lesser demons, bearing spears, swords, blades, and halberds, with banners and pennants flying.:「。」The Great Sage was secretly delighted at heart, thinking, "What Li Changgeng told me was no idle word indeed, no idle word at all." It turned out that this array followed a certain order: every two hundred and fifty demons formed one large company.He saw there were forty long banners of mixed colors fluttering wildly in the wind, and from this he knew there were ten thousand troops in all.:「Then he weighed the matter within himself, thinking, "Now that old Monkey has transformed into the little Zuanfeng, once I go inside, if the old demon questions me about the mountain patrol, I must answer according to circumstance.But should my words happen to slip and give me away, how would I ever get free?And if I tried to run back out, that crowd guarding the gate would block my way — how could I ever get out through the gate?。」To capture the demon kings within the cave, I must first do away with the horde of demons guarding the gate." Now, how do you suppose he managed to do away with that horde of demons?:「Splendid Great Sage — he thought to himself, "Those old demons have never even met me face to face, yet they already know old Monkey's name and reputation. Let me then rely on this very reputation, put on an air of authority, and talk big to give them a fright and see what happens.If indeed the beings of the Central Land are fated and destined to obtain the scriptures and bring them home, then this time, a few heroic words from me alone will be enough to frighten off however many demons stand before that gate;。」but if all beings lack that fate and destiny, and the true scriptures cannot be obtained, then even if I speak so eloquently as to make lotus flowers bloom from my words, I still won't be able to dispose of the demons outside this cave in the west." Weighing this plan, heart questioning mouth and mouth questioning heart, he struck the clapper and shook the bell, and strode straight up to the mouth of Shituo Cave.:「?」Before long he was stopped by the little demons of the front camp, who said, "Is that Xiaozuanfeng?" Xingzhe made no answer and simply walked on with his head lowered.

闯入深山,依著旧路。正走处,忽听得人喊马嘶之声。即举目观之,原来是狮驼洞口有万数小妖排列著枪刀剑戟,旗帜旌旄。这大圣心中暗喜道:「李长庚之言,真是不妄,真是不妄。」原来这摆列的有些路数:二百五十名作一大队伍。他只见有四十名杂彩长旗,迎风乱舞,就知有万名人马。却又自揣自度道:「老孙变作小钻风,这一进去,那老魔若问我巡山的话,我必随机答应。倘或一时言语差讹,认得我啊,怎生脱体?就要往外跑时,那伙把门的挡住,如何出得门去?要拿洞里妖王,必先除了门前众怪。」你道他怎么除得众怪?好大圣,想著:「那老魔不曾与我会面,就知我老孙的名头,我且倚著我的这个名头,仗著威风,说些大话,吓他一吓看。果然中土众生有缘有分,取得经回,这一去,只消我几句英雄之言,就吓退那门前若干之怪;假若众生无缘无分,取不得真经啊,就是纵然说得莲花现,也除不得西方洞外精。」心问口,口问心,思量此计,敲著梆,摇著铃,径直闯到狮驼洞口。早被前营上小妖挡住道:「小钻风来了?」行者不应,低著头就走。

:「?」:「。」:「?」:「。」:「When he reached the second camp, the little demons there again caught hold of him, saying, "Is that Xiaozuanfeng?" Xingzhe said, "It is." The demons said, "You went out patrolling this morning — did you happen to run into that Sun Wukong fellow at all?" Xingzhe said, "I did run into him — he was right there sharpening his cudgel." The demons, alarmed, said, "What does he look like??」:「And what sort of cudgel was he sharpening?" Xingzhe said, "He was crouched there by the ravine, looking for all the world like the Road-Opening God;and if he stood up straight, he'd surely measure over a hundred feet tall.:『。』。」In his hands he held an iron rod, thick as a large bowl, and he scooped up water from the stone cliff and ground it against the rock, muttering all the while, 'Oh my rod, it's been a good while since I brought you out to show your magic power — this time, even if there were a hundred thousand demons, you'd strike them all dead for me; let me first slay those three demon kings as an offering to you.' Once he's ground it sharp, he means to strike dead the ten thousand demons at your gate first." When the little demons heard this, every one of them was struck with terror, their souls scattering and their spirits flying.:「Xingzhe went on, "Gentlemen, that Tang Monk's flesh doesn't amount to more than a few pounds anyway, and none of it would come our way — why should we take the blame and the risk on his behalf?。」:「。」Better that we each scatter and go our own ways." All the demons said, "Well said — let each of us save his own skin and be off." As it turned out, this whole crowd were nothing but wolves, vermin, tigers, leopards, beasts of the field and birds of the air, and with a great whoosh they all scattered and fled in a tumult.This was no mere matter of a few opening remarks from the Great Sage Sun — it was just like the songs of Chu that once scattered eight thousand troops.

What it’s about

Approaching Lion-Camel Ridge, the pilgrims hear terrifying reports of a mountain crowded with demons. Sanzang is frightened, so Wukong changes into a little monster and captures a patrolman called Little Drill-Wind. Through comic interrogation and impersonation, he learns that three kings rule the region: a blue-haired lion, a yellow-tusked elephant and a great roc, supported by thousands of organized lesser demons.

Wukong enters their cave disguised as the patrolman and studies an enemy that resembles a disciplined state rather than a loose band of beasts. His boasting and questions eventually arouse suspicion, but he continues manipulating passwords, ranks and rumors while the three rulers prepare to seize the pilgrims. The chapter suspends direct combat in favor of reconnaissance. Its achievement is a map of the threat: three distinct leaders, a fortified population and a road made dangerous by administration as much as supernatural strength.

When it was written 背景

Lion-Camel Ridge enlarges the familiar monster cave into a grotesque polity with gates, officers, patrols and massed troops. Little Drill-Wind's detailed report is comic because Wukong terrifies a low-ranking functionary into explaining the whole bureaucracy, yet the intelligence is essential. Names, uniforms and command structures become weapons before the cudgel is raised. Learners should track 探路, 巡山, 大王 and 小鑽風, terms that make espionage legible. The episode's scale also prepares for a conflict in which Wukong's transformations cannot simply isolate one captor from a few servants.
