：「。Wukong said, "Wujing speaks with reason."，，，。"Master, go to sleep for now. Tomorrow let old Monkey go with you into the court, and we'll see whether this National Grandfather is good or ill."，，，，，；"If he turns out to be human, then I fear he has merely strayed onto a heterodox path, ignorant of the true Way, mistaking the mere gathering of medicine for the real thing — in which case old Monkey will use the essential principles of the primordial Dao to convert him back to righteousness;"，，，，。」，，：「，，。"and if he is a demon, I shall seize him and show him to this king, so as to teach him to curb his desires and nurture his body — I will certainly not let him harm the lives of those children." Hearing this, Sanzang hastily bowed and, turning to Wukong, made him a gesture of respect, saying, "Disciple, this plan is excellent, truly excellent."，，，，？」：「。"But when we see the benighted ruler, we mustn't ask about this matter outright — I fear he, unable to distinguish near from far, might lump it together as mere rumor and hold us to blame. What then shall we do?" Wukong laughed and said, "Old Monkey has his own powers for this."，，。"For now, I'll first spirit the children away from this city in their goose cages, so that tomorrow there will be nothing from which to take hearts, and the local officials will naturally submit a memorial about it."，，。"That benighted ruler is bound to issue some decree — either he'll consult with the National Grandfather, or he'll order a fresh selection to be reported."，，。」。"At that point, we can use the matter as an occasion to speak up, and there will certainly be no blame placed upon us." Sanzang was overjoyed.：「？He then asked further, "But how can the children be gotten out of the city now?"，。"If they can truly be delivered, it will be an act of virtue as great as heaven from you, my worthy disciple."，，。」，，、：「，，，。」：「！"Please act quickly — any delay and it may be too late." Wukong roused his divine might, rose at once, and instructed Bajie and Sha Seng, "Sit here with the master while I go to work. When you see a dark wind rise, that will mean the children are being taken out of the city." The three of them together began chanting in unison, "Homage to the Life-Saving Medicine Buddha!"！」"Homage to the Life-Saving Medicine Buddha!"

，，：「，，，，。」，，：「。Watch now as Wukong, with a single flap of his wings, flew into the Hall of Golden Bells and lodged himself upon the kingfisher-feather screen. Just then, from among the ranks of officials, the Commissioner of the Five Wards' Troops stepped forward and reported, "Your Majesty, last night a gust of cold wind swept away the young children from the goose-cages in every ward and household, cages and all, leaving not a trace." Hearing this report, the king was both alarmed and enraged, and said to the Royal Preceptor, "This must be Heaven's will to destroy me.，，，，，，？」：「。For months now my illness has grown severe, and the royal physicians have been of no avail. Fortunately the Royal Preceptor bestowed an immortal prescription, and I was waiting expressly for today, the hour of noon, to perform the incision and take the hearts and livers of these children as the guiding ingredient. How could I have expected them to be swept away by a cold wind? If this is not Heaven wishing to destroy me, what is it?" The Royal Preceptor laughed and said, "Your Majesty, do not trouble yourself with worry yet.，。」：「，？」：「，，。That these children were swept away is in fact Heaven sending Your Majesty long life." The king said, "Seeing the children in the cages swept away, how can you instead say that Heaven has sent long life?" The Royal Preceptor said, "Just now as I entered the court, I caught sight of a most wondrous guiding ingredient, one far superior to the hearts of those eleven hundred and eleven children.，；The hearts of those children would only extend Your Majesty's life by a thousand years;，，。」，，：「，，，，，，。but this guiding ingredient, taken with my immortal elixir, could extend it by ten thousand times ten thousand years." The king had no idea at all what this guiding ingredient might be, and asked again and again, until at last the Royal Preceptor said, "That monk sent from the Land of the East to fetch scriptures — I observed that his bearing is pure and his countenance well-formed; he is the true incarnation of one who has cultivated through ten lifetimes. Having been a monk since childhood, his primal yang has never been dispersed, making him ten thousand times superior to those children.，，。」，，：「？If we could obtain his heart and liver to decoct into a broth, and take it together with my immortal elixir, it would fully secure ten thousand years of life for you." Hearing this, the befuddled king believed it completely and said to the Royal Preceptor, "Why did you not say so sooner?，，。」：「？If it truly works so well, I should have kept him just now instead of letting him go."

You should first request his heart with proper courtesy.，，，；If he consents, then cut it out from him at once, give his corpse a royal burial, and even build him a shrine to receive offerings and worship;，，，。but if he refuses, then treat him roughly — bind him at once and cut it open to take it out.？」，，。What difficulty is there in that?"

Sanzang had just received the royal meal together with Bajie and Sha Monk, and upon suddenly hearing these words, he was so terrified that his three corpse-spirits scattered and smoke seemed to rise from his seven orifices; he collapsed into the dust, drenched in sweat all over, his eyes unable to fix on anything, his mouth unable to speak.，：「，。」：「？Alarmed, Sha Monk rushed forward to support him, calling out again and again, "Master, wake up! Master, wake up!" Bajie said, "What disaster is it?？What disaster is it?，。」：「，，。You could have just told it slowly instead of frightening the master like this." Wukong said, "After the master left the court, old Monkey turned back to watch, and saw that the Royal Preceptor is a demon spirit.，。A little while later, the Commissioner of the Five Wards' Troops came to report the matter of the cold wind sweeping away the children.，，：『。』，。Just as the king was growing angry, that fellow turned it into cause for joy, saying, 'This is Heaven sending you long life.' He wants to take the master's heart and liver to use as a guiding ingredient, saying it can extend the king's life for ten thousand years.，，，。」：「，，，。」That befuddled king believed these slanderous words, and so has mustered crack troops to surround the post-house, and sent a Brocade-robed officer to fetch the master and beg for his heart."

What it’s about

The pilgrims enter Bhiksu Kingdom and see cages holding more than a thousand boys. An official explains that the aging king, urged by a beautiful queen and her father, plans to use children's hearts as medicine. Wukong releases the children by sending them away under a protective wind, then disguises himself as Sanzang when the court decides that the holy monk's heart could replace all the missing victims.

Before the king and his sinister father-in-law, the disguised Wukong performs a grotesque lesson in anatomy, claiming to possess many hearts for different moral impulses. He survives the threatened cutting and challenges the proposed cure, while the real Sanzang remains hidden. Investigation points toward the queen and her father as animal spirits who have turned royal fear of death into policy. The chapter stops with their deception exposed enough for combat, but before the kingdom is fully cleansed.

When it was written 背景

Bhiksu Kingdom makes bad medicine a crisis of government. A ruler's desire for longevity converts children into ingredients, and bureaucratic obedience places cages in public view. Wukong answers sacrificial logic first with rescue, then with satirical multiplication: his inventory of metaphorical hearts turns the physical organ into a vocabulary of greed, loyalty, kindness and deceit. Learners should distinguish 心 as flesh from 心 as intention while following 小兒, 藥引 and 長生. The episode sharply contrasts Sanzang's singular sacred body with the many ordinary young lives the court has treated as exchangeable.
