What breach have you committed?” The officials said, “Your Majesty, we know not why, but in a single night we have all lost our hair.” Taking the memorial concerning their hairlessness, the king descended from the dragon throne and said to his ministers, “Indeed, no one knows why, but every person great and small in our palace has likewise lost all their hair overnight.” King and ministers alike shed streaming tears and said, “Henceforth we shall never again dare slaughter monks.” The king returned to the dragon throne, and the officials resumed their appointed ranks.:「。」:「The king said again, “If you have business, step forth and report it; if not, roll up the blinds and dismiss the court.” At once the commander-in-chief of the city patrol stepped from the military ranks, while the commissioner of the Eastern City Constabulary came out from the civil ranks.

The two officials asked the king to inspect the chest, and the king at once ordered it opened.The lid had scarcely been raised when Zhu Bajie could restrain himself no longer and sprang out, terrifying all the officials so badly that their hearts quaked and they could not speak.Then they saw Sun Wukong help the Tang monk out, while Sha Wujing brought out the luggage.:「。」Seeing the commander-in-chief holding the horse, Bajie strode forward and barked, “That horse is mine! Hand it over.” The officer was so frightened that he turned a somersault and fell to the ground.All four pilgrims stood before the steps.:「?」:「。」:「?」:「When the king saw that they were four monks, he hurried down from the dragon throne and summoned the consorts and queens of the Three Palaces. Descending from the Golden Chimes Hall, he and all his ministers bowed and asked, “From where have you come, elders?” Sanzang replied, “We were sent by the sovereign of the Great Tang in the Eastern Land to the Great Thunderclap Monastery in the Western Kingdom of Tianzhu, there to worship the Living Buddha and fetch the true scriptures.” The king said, “Masters, after coming so far, why did you sleep in this chest?” Sanzang answered, “This poor monk knew that Your Majesty had vowed to kill monks. Not daring to present myself openly in your noble realm, I disguised myself as a layman and sought lodging by night at the Baofang Inn.“For fear that someone might discover my true identity, I therefore slept inside the chest.“Unfortunately, thieves carried it away, and the commander-in-chief caught them and had us borne here.“Now that I behold Your Majesty’s dragon countenance, it is truly as though the clouds had parted to reveal the sun.。」:「“I beg Your Majesty to pardon and release this poor monk; your favor would be deep as the sea.” The king said, “Master, you are an eminent monk from the exalted Celestial Court, and We have failed to welcome you properly.“For years We have vowed to kill monks because one monk once slandered Us. We made a vow to Heaven that We would kill ten thousand monks to fulfill it.“Unexpectedly, tonight We were converted and made to resemble monks ourselves.。」:「?」:「。」:「“Now king and ministers, queens and consorts have all had their hair shorn away. We beg you, in your great wisdom, not to disdain us, but accept us beneath your gate.” Hearing this, Bajie laughed aloud. “If you wish to become our disciples, what initiation gift will you offer?” The king said, “If the masters consent, I shall present you with all the treasures of my kingdom.” Wukong said, “Say no more of treasure. We monks are men who possess the Way.。」“Simply endorse and exchange our travel document, then escort us out of the city, and your imperial dominion shall remain forever secure while blessings and long life come to you without end.” Hearing this, the king at once ordered the Court of Imperial Entertainments to prepare a magnificent banquet.King and ministers joined together and submitted themselves to the one true faith.The travel document was endorsed at once, and the master was asked to give the kingdom a new name.:「Wukong said, “Your Majesty, the name ‘Dharma-Destroying Kingdom’ is fine save that the word ‘Destroying’ is improper.』,。」“Since I have passed through it, change its name to ‘Dharma-Honoring Kingdom.’ I guarantee that for a thousand generations your seas shall be calm and your rivers clear, while seasonable winds and rains bring peace to every land.” The king thanked him for this favor.The full royal procession was arrayed, and the Tang monk and his three disciples were escorted out of the city and sent on their way west.Of how king and ministers embraced goodness and returned to the truth, we shall speak no more.

正欢喜处,忽见一座高山阻路。唐僧勒马道:「徒弟们,你看这面前山势崔巍,切须仔细。」行者笑道:「放心,放心,保你无事。」三藏道:「休言无事。我看那山峰挺立,远远的有些凶气,暴云飞出,渐觉惊惶,满身麻木,神思不安。」行者笑道:「你把乌巢禅师的《多心经》早已忘了?」三藏道:「我记得。」行者道:「你虽记得,这有四句颂子,你却忘了哩。」三藏道:「那四句?」行者道:

:「Sanzang said, “Disciple, how could I not know?。」:「“According to those four lines, the thousands of sutras and myriad canons amount to nothing more than cultivation of the mind.” Wukong said, “No more need be said.“When the mind is pure, its solitary light shines alone; when the mind is steadfast, the myriad scenes are clear.“The slightest error leads to indolence, and no success will come in a thousand years or ten thousand.“You need only a single heart of sincere resolve, and Thunderclap will be right before your eyes.“But with fear and alarm such as yours, and your thoughts so ill at ease, the Great Way is far away, and Thunderclap is far away too.。」“Do not indulge in foolish doubts; follow me.” Hearing this, the elder’s mind and spirits immediately cleared, and all his anxieties ceased.

又见那左右手下有三四十个小妖摆列,他在那里逼法的喷风嗳雾。行者暗笑道:「我师父也有些儿先兆,他说不是天风,果然此风是个妖精在这里弄喧儿哩。若老孙使铁棒往下就打,这叫做『捣蒜打』,打便打死了,只是坏了老孙的名头。」那行者一生豪杰,再不晓得暗算计人。他道:「我且回去,照顾猪八戒照顾,教他来先与这妖精见一仗。若是八戒有本事,打倒这妖,算了造化;若无手段,被这妖拿去,等我再去救他,才好出名。他又平日做作,有些躲懒,不肯出头,却只是有些口紧,好吃东西。等我哄他一哄,看他怎么说?」

He immediately descended from the clouds and returned to Sanzang.:「?」:「。」:「。」:「Sanzang asked, “Wukong, what good or ill lies amid the wind and mist?” Wukong said, “It is clear now; there is hardly any wind or mist.” Sanzang said, “Indeed, I can feel it receding somewhat.” Wukong laughed and said, “Master, my sight is usually keen, but this time I was mistaken.。」:「?」:「“I thought there might be monsters in the wind and mist, but it turns out there are none.” Sanzang asked, “Then what is there?” Wukong said, “Not far ahead is a village.“The families there delight in good works. They are steaming dry-cooked white rice and white-flour buns as alms for monks.。」:「?」:「。」:「“I imagine this mist is steam from their cooking baskets and also a sign of the merit they have amassed.” Bajie took this for the truth, pulled Wukong aside, and whispered, “Brother, have you already eaten some of their vegetarian fare?” Wukong said, “Not very much. Their vegetables were a little too salty for my taste, so I did not care to eat more.” Bajie said, “Pah!“However salty it is, I shall fill my belly with it.。」:「?」:「?」:「“If I become terribly thirsty, I can come back and drink water.” Wukong asked, “Do you want to eat?” Bajie replied, “I do. My belly is rather hungry, and I want to go eat something first. What do you think?” Wukong said, “Brother, say no more.:『。』?」:「。」:「?」:「“The ancient books declare, ‘While the father is present, the son may not act on his own authority.’ With Master here, who would dare go ahead of him?” Bajie laughed and said, “If you say nothing, I shall go.” Wukong replied, “I shall say nothing and see how you manage it.” The idiot was especially clever where his appetite was concerned. He stepped forward, made a deep bow, and said, “Master, elder brother just said that a family in the village ahead is offering food to monks.“Look at this horse: if we impose upon the family, it will need both grass and fodder, which will only cause them trouble.。」:「“Fortunately the wind and mist have cleared. Sit here a while, and let me find some tender grass and feed the horse first; afterward we can go to that household and beg our meal.” The Tang monk said happily, “Excellent! How is it that you are so diligent today?。」“Go quickly and return quickly.”

One seized his robe, another his silken sash, and, shoving and jostling, they all laid hands on him together.:「。」:「?」:「。」:「Bajie said, “Do not pull! Let me eat at each of your houses in turn.” The fiends asked, “Monk, what do you want to eat?” Bajie replied, “You offer meals to monks here, and I have come for the food.” The fiends said, “You think we feed monks here, but you do not know that here we make a specialty of eating monks.“We are all demon immortals who attained the Way in these mountains. We make a practice of taking you monks home, steaming you in a basket, and eating you cooked.。」:「“Yet you come here expecting a meal!” Hearing this, Bajie was frightened and began cursing Wukong in his heart. “That Protector of the Horses is truly a wretch!“He tricked me by saying this village fed monks. Where is there any village or household here?“Who is offering food to any monk?。」“It turns out there are only these monsters!” When the idiot could no longer bear their tugging, he resumed his true form, whipped the rake from his waist, and thrust wildly until he drove the lesser fiends back.

:「。──Unable to conceal it any longer, Wukong bowed and said with a smile, “There are a handful of lesser fiends, but they dare not trouble us. Bajie, come here, and I shall give you a little more special attention.。」:「?」:「“Since we are escorting Master over this perilous mountain road, we are like an army on campaign.” Bajie asked, “What follows from our being an army?” Wukong replied, “You shall be the path-clearing general and open the road ahead.。」:「。」:「?」:「“If the monster does not come, well and good; if he does, fight him. Defeat him, and the merit will be yours.” Bajie reckoned that the monster’s abilities were about equal to his own and said, “Even if I die at his hands, so be it. Let me go first.” Wukong laughed and said, “This idiot speaks words of ill omen before he even starts. How will you ever make progress?” Bajie said, “Brother, you know the saying: when a young lord attends a feast, he leaves either drunk or full;“when a brave warrior enters battle, he leaves either dead or wounded.”。」“First say something wrong, and afterward you will command respect.” Delighted, Xingzhe immediately shouldered the horse, invited his master to mount, and, with Shaseng carrying the luggage and Bajie accompanying them, traveled into the mountains—of which no more for now.

Why are you so troubled today?” The old monster said, “Little ones, whenever I used to leave the cave to patrol the mountain, whether I came upon men or beasts, I was sure to snatch a few and bring them home to feed you all.。」:「?」:「But my luck was poor today, and I ran into a formidable foe.” The lesser demons asked, “What foe was that?” The old monster said, “A monk named Zhu Bajie, a disciple of the Tang Monk from the Eastern Land who is journeying to fetch the scriptures.He gave me such a bout with his rake that he beat me from the field.How infuriating!For some time now I have often heard it said that the Tang Monk is an arhat who has cultivated himself through ten lifetimes, and that whoever eats a piece of his flesh may prolong his years and live forever.。」I never expected him to come to my mountain today; it would have been the perfect chance to seize and steam him for eating, but I had no idea he possessed such a disciple.”

却说那妖精帅几个败残的小妖径回本洞,高坐在那石崖上,默默无言。洞中还有许多看家的小妖,都上前问道:「大王常时出去,喜喜欢欢回来,今日如何烦恼?」老妖道:「小的们,我往常出洞巡山,不管那里的人与兽,定捞几个来家,养赡汝等。今日造化低,撞见一个对头。」小妖问:「是那个对头?」老妖道:「是一个和尚,乃东土唐僧取经的徒弟,名唤猪八戒。我被他一顿钉钯,把我筑得败下阵来。好恼啊!我这一向,常闻得人说,唐僧乃十世修行的罗汉,有人吃他一块肉,可以延寿长生。不期他今日到我山里,正好拿住他蒸吃,不知他手下有这等徒弟。」

Before he had finished speaking, a lesser demon stepped out from among the ranks, sobbed three times before the old monster, and then laughed three times, “Hee, hee, ha, ha!”:「?」:「。」:「?」:「The old monster shouted, “Why do you both weep and laugh?” The lesser demon knelt and said, “Your Majesty just spoke of eating the Tang Monk, but the Tang Monk’s flesh is not fit to eat.” The old monster said, “Everyone says that eating one piece of him grants eternal youth and a lifespan equal to Heaven’s; how can you say he is not fit to eat?” The lesser demon replied, “If he were fit to eat, he would never have made it here; monsters elsewhere would already have eaten him.。」:「?」:「。」:「?」:「。」「?」:「He has three disciples protecting him.” The old monster asked, “Do you know those three?” The lesser demon said, “His eldest disciple is Sun Xingzhe, his third is Monk Sha, and this Zhu Bajie is his second disciple.” The old monster asked, “How does Monk Sha compare with Zhu Bajie?” The lesser demon replied, “They are about evenly matched.” “And how does Sun Xingzhe compare with him?” The lesser demon stuck out his tongue and said, “I dare not say.That Sun Xingzhe has boundless divine powers and transformations beyond number.?」:「?」:「』。Five hundred years ago he caused havoc in Heaven, and neither the Twenty-Eight Lunar Mansions above, nor the Nine Luminaries, the Twelve Zodiacal Officers, the Five Ministers and Four Chancellors, the constellations east and west, the two gods of north and south, the Five Sacred Mountains and Four Great Rivers, nor all the divine generals beneath Heaven could overcome him; how dare you think of eating the Tang Monk?” The old monster asked, “How do you know all this in such detail?” The lesser demon said, “I once lived with the king in the Lion-Camel Cave on Lion-Camel Ridge. That king, knowing neither good nor ill, wanted to eat the Tang Monk, but Sun Xingzhe fought his way through the gate with his golden-hooped staff. Alas, he beat us into a domino throw: all ‘broken aces and severed sixes.’Luckily, I had enough sense to escape through the rear gate; I came here and was graciously taken in by Your Majesty.。」That is how I know what he can do.” At these words, the old monster turned pale with fright.」。This was truly a case of “the great general fearing the prophetic word.”Hearing one of his own followers speak so, how could he not be alarmed?

:「Just as they were all trembling with fear, another lesser demon stepped forward and said, “Do not be vexed or afraid, Your Majesty.:『。』。」:「?」:「。」:「』?」:「As the saying goes, ‘Matters should be approached without haste.’ If you wish to eat the Tang Monk, let me devise a scheme to capture him.” The old monster asked, “What scheme have you?” The lesser demon said, “I have a plan called ‘Parting the Petals of the Plum Blossom.’” The old monster asked, “What is this ‘Parting the Petals of the Plum Blossom’?” The lesser demon replied, “Call to muster every demon in the cave, great and small; choose a hundred from a thousand, ten from a hundred, and from those ten select only three.They must be capable fellows skilled in transformation; each is to assume Your Majesty’s appearance, wear Your Majesty’s helmet and armor, wield Your Majesty’s pestle, and lie in ambush at three separate places.First send one to fight Zhu Bajie, another to fight Sun Xingzhe, and a third to fight Monk Sha: sacrifice these three lesser demons to draw the three brothers away.?」:「Then Your Majesty can reach down from midair with your cloud-grasping hand and seize the Tang Monk. It will be as easy as taking something from your own pocket, or plucking a fly from a basin of water—what difficulty could there be?” Hearing this, the old monster was overjoyed and said, “A superb plan! Superb!If we fail to capture the Tang Monk, let the matter rest;。」but if we do capture him, I shall reward you handsomely and appoint you vanguard of the forward division.” The lesser demon kowtowed in gratitude and called for the demons to be mustered.All the demons in the cave, great and small, were immediately assembled, and sure enough three capable lesser demons were chosen. Each transformed himself into the old monster, took up an iron pestle, and lay in ambush to await the Tang Monk—of which no more for now.

正都在悚惧之际,又一个小妖上前道:「大王莫恼,莫怕。常言道:『事从缓来。』若是要吃唐僧,等我定个计策拿他。」老妖道:「你有何计?」小妖道:「我有个分瓣梅花计。」老妖道:「怎么叫做『分瓣梅花计』?」小妖道:「如今把洞口大小群妖点将起来,千中选百,百中选十,十中只选三个。须是有能干,会变化的,都变做大王的模样,顶大王之盔,贯大王之甲,执大王之杵,三处埋伏。先著一个战猪八戒,再著一个战孙行者,再著一个战沙和尚:舍著三个小妖,调开他弟兄三个。大王却在半空伸下拿云手,去捉这唐僧,就如探囊取物,就如鱼水盆内捻苍蝇,有何难哉?」老妖闻此言,满心欢喜道:「此计绝妙,绝妙!这一去,拿不得唐僧便罢;若是拿了唐僧,决不轻你,就封你做个前部先锋。」小妖叩头谢恩,叫点妖怪。即将洞中大小妖精点起,果然选出三个有能的小妖,俱变做老妖,各执铁杵,埋伏等待唐僧不题。

Meanwhile, the venerable Tang, free from worry or care, followed Bajie onto the main road.After they had traveled for a good while, there came a sudden crash beside the road, and a lesser demon leaped out and rushed forward to seize the elder.:「?」Sun Xingzhe cried, “Bajie, a monster is coming! Why do you not attack?” Unable to tell true from false, the idiot whipped out his rake, charged after it, and struck wildly.The monster raised its iron pestle to parry and meet him.The two were trading blows in fierce combat beneath the hillside when another noise came from the thick grass; a second monster leaped out and rushed straight at the Tang Monk.:「。」:「Xingzhe said, “Master, this is bad! Bajie’s poor eyes have let that monster through to seize you. Wait here while old Sun goes to strike it down.” He hurriedly drew his staff, went forward to meet it, and shouted, “Where do you think you are going?。」Take this!” Without a word, the monster raised its pestle to meet him.The two charged and collided beneath the grassy slope and were locked in combat when they heard a whoosh of wind from behind the mountain; yet another monster leaped out and made straight for the Tang Monk.:「Seeing it, Shaseng cried in alarm, “Master, both Eldest Brother’s and Second Brother’s eyes have failed them—they have let a monster through to seize you.。」Stay mounted while old Sha goes to capture it.” Without pausing to discern good from evil, the monk drew his staff and met the monster head-on, blocking its iron pestle. They struggled bitterly, shouting and yelling as they fought wildly, and were gradually drawn farther away.From midair, the old monster saw the Tang Monk sitting alone upon the horse; he reached down with five claws like steel hooks and snatched him up in one grasp.The master fell from the horse and slipped free of the stirrups, and the monster swept him straight away in a gust of wind.Pitiful indeed!And truly it was:

却说这唐长老无虑无忧,相随八戒上大路。行够多时,只见那路傍边扑落的一声响喨,跳出一个小妖,奔向前边,要捉长老。孙行者叫道:「八戒,妖精来了,何不动手?」那呆子不认真假,掣钉钯赶上乱筑。那妖精使铁杵就架相迎。他两个一往一来的在山坡下正然赌斗,又见那草科里响一声,又跳出个怪来,就奔唐僧。行者道:「师父,不好了,八戒的眼拙,放那妖精来拿你,且等老孙打他去。」急掣棒迎上前喝道:「那里去?看棒。」那妖精更不打话,举杵来迎他。两个在草坡下一撞一冲,正相持处,又听得山背后呼的风响,又跳出个妖精来,径奔唐僧。沙僧见了,大惊道:「师父,大哥与二哥的眼都花了,把妖精放将来拿你了。你坐在马上,等老沙拿他去。」这和尚也不分好歹,即掣杖,对面挡住那妖精铁杵,恨苦相持,吆吆喝喝,乱嚷乱斗,渐渐的调远。那老怪在半空中见唐僧独坐马上,伸下五爪钢钩,把唐僧一把挝住。那师父丢了马,脱了镫,被妖精一阵风径摄去了。可怜!这正是:

:「。」:「。」:「The old monster brought his wind down and carried the Tang Monk into the cave, then called, “Vanguard!” The lesser demon who had devised the plan came forward and knelt, saying, “I dare not accept! I dare not accept!” The old monster asked, “Why do you say that?Once a great general has given his word, it is as indelible as white cloth dyed black.I said then that if we failed to capture the Tang Monk, the matter would end, but if we captured him, I would appoint you vanguard of the forward division.Today your clever plan has indeed succeeded; how could I break faith with you?Bring in the Tang Monk, and have the little ones fetch water and scour the pot, carry in firewood and light the fire, so that we may steam him.。」:「。」:「?」:「You and I shall each eat a piece of his flesh, that we may prolong our lives and live forever.” The vanguard said, “Your Majesty, you must not eat him yet.” The old monster asked, “Now that we have captured him, why may we not eat him?” The vanguard replied, “It would be no great matter for Your Majesty to eat him; Zhu Bajie might let it pass as a favor, and Monk Sha might do the same, but I fear Sun Xingzhe, that vicious master.。」:「?」:「If he learns that we have eaten the Tang Monk, he will not even come to fight us; he will simply thrust his golden-hooped staff into the mountainside, bore a hole through it, and overturn the entire mountain with one heave. Then we shall have no place left to shelter.” The old monster asked, “Vanguard, what wise counsel have you?” The vanguard replied, “If you follow my advice, send the Tang Monk into the rear garden and bind him to a tree. Give him no food for two or three days: first, this will cleanse him inside;?」:「。」second, we can wait and see whether his three disciples come searching at our gate. Once we learn that they have gone away, we can bring him out and enjoy him at our leisure. Would that not be best?” The old monster laughed and said, “Exactly, exactly! The vanguard speaks wisely.” At his command, the Tang Monk was taken into the rear garden and bound to a tree with a rope, while all the lesser demons returned to the front to await orders.

:「Look at the elder, suffering under coils of rope, bound and fastened tight; unable to stop the tears flowing down his cheeks, he cried, “Disciples! In what part of the mountain are you capturing monsters, and along what road are you chasing demons?I have been seized by this vile fiend and suffer calamity here; on what day shall we meet again?!」:「?」:「?」:「。」:「。」:「?」:「The pain is killing me!” As tears streamed from both his eyes, someone tied to a tree opposite called, “Elder, have you been brought in here too?” Recovering his composure, the elder asked, “Who are you?” The man replied, “I am a woodcutter from this mountain. The lord of the mountain seized me the day before yesterday and tied me here. It has now been three days, and I reckon they mean to eat me.” Weeping, the elder said, “Woodcutter, if you die, only your own person is lost, and you have little else to weigh upon you; but if I die, my death will leave matters far from settled.” The woodcutter said, “Elder, you are a man who has left the household: you have neither parents above nor wife and children below. If you die, you die—what could remain unsettled?” The elder replied, “I am journeying from the Eastern Land to the Western Heaven to fetch scriptures. By imperial decree of Emperor Taizong of the Tang, I am to worship the living Buddha and obtain the true scriptures, so as to deliver the masterless, lonely souls in the netherworld.If I should lose my life now, would that not make the sovereign wait in vain and betray all his ministers??」:「Would not the countless wronged souls in the City of the Wrongfully Dead be bitterly disappointed and forever denied rebirth? The merit of the whole undertaking would turn entirely to dust and wind—how then could my death leave matters settled?” Hearing this, the woodcutter shed tears and said, “Elder, your death would mean only that much, but mine would be more grievous still.I lost my father when I was young and have lived alone with my widowed mother. We possess no property and depend entirely on my cutting firewood for our livelihood.My aged mother is eighty-three this year, and I alone support her.If I should die, who will bury her body and see her through her final years?Bitter indeed! Bitter indeed!。」:「The pain is killing me!” Hearing this, the elder burst into loud sobs and cried, “Pitiful, pitiful!Even a mountain woodcutter cherishes thoughts of his parent, while this poor monk has learned only to recite scriptures in vain.Serving one’s sovereign and serving one’s parents follow the selfsame principle;。」you are bound by a parent’s grace, and I by a sovereign’s grace.” And truly it was:

你看那长老苦挨著绳缠索绑,紧缚牢拴,止不住腮边流泪,叫道:「徒弟呀,你们在那山中擒怪,甚路里赶妖?我被泼魔捉来,此处受灾,何日相会?痛杀我也!」正自两泪交流,只见对面树上有人叫道:「长老,你也进来了?」长老正了性道:「你是何人?」那人道:「我是本山中的樵子,被那山主前日拿来,绑在此间,今已三日,算计要吃我哩。」长老滴泪道:「樵夫啊,你死只是一身,无甚挂碍,我却死得不甚干净。」樵子道:「长老,你是个出家人,上无父母,下无妻子,死便死了,有甚么不干净?」长老道:「我本是东土往西天取经去的,奉唐朝太宗皇帝御旨拜活佛,取真经,要超度那幽冥无主的孤魂。今若丧了性命,可不盼杀那君王,孤负那臣子?那枉死城中,无限的冤魂,却不大失所望,永世不得超生,一场功果,尽化作风尘,这却怎么得干净也?」樵子闻言,眼中堕泪道:「长老,你死也只如此,我死又更伤情。我自幼失父,与母鳏居,更无家业,止靠著打柴为生。老母今年八十三岁,只我一人奉养。倘若身丧,谁与他埋尸送老?苦哉,苦哉!痛杀我也。」长老闻言,放声大哭道:「可怜,可怜!山人尚有思亲意,空教贫僧会念经。事君事亲,皆同一理;你为亲恩,我为君恩。」正是那:

What it’s about

On Hidden-Mist Mountain, a leopard spirit called the Great King of the Southern Mountain learns that Sanzang is approaching. His demons use a divided attack and a counterfeit human head to confuse the disciples. While Wukong and Bajie pursue decoys, the monster seizes Sanzang and takes him to Linked-Ring Cave. The carefully staged raid succeeds because the defenders react to what appears most urgent rather than protecting the vulnerable traveler at the center.

The disciples search the mountain and clash with the leopard's forces, but the false head convinces them for a time that their master has been killed. Bajie and Sha Wujing grieve, while Wukong tests the evidence and refuses to let appearances close the investigation. He infiltrates the cave and learns that Sanzang remains alive, hidden so the demon can manage the attackers before eating him. The chapter ends with knowledge restored but rescue and vengeance still unfinished.

When it was written 背景

This episode makes misinformation a weapon. A fabricated head can wound the pilgrim band by producing grief, disorder and premature certainty even when Sanzang's body is untouched. Wukong's characteristic suspicion, often painful in social encounters, becomes essential forensic discipline here. Learners should follow 假人頭, 哭, 探 and 洞府 as sight yields to verification. The leopard's grand title, 南山大王, contrasts with his reliance on stagecraft and subordinates, distinguishing a locally ambitious predator from the cosmically connected adversaries nearby in the novel.
