087Chapter 87

，，。The Great Way is deep and hidden—how can its workings be known? Once revealed, even ghosts and gods are struck with awe.，，。It holds the universe within, divides and discerns the mystic light; no worldly joy can rival it.，，。Before Vulture Peak, the precious pearl is held aloft, shining brightly with fivefold radiance.，。It illumines all living beings above and below throughout heaven and earth; those who understand it shall live as long as the mountains and seas.

，，，，。The Pilgrim uttered a true formula and chanted an incantation. At once a black cloud appeared in the eastern sky and gradually descended before the hall.

Bowing to the Pilgrim, he said, “Great Sage, for what service have you summoned this little dragon?” The Pilgrim said, “Please rise.，。I am sorry to have brought you from so far away, but it is for no great matter.，，？」：「：，。This is Fengxian Prefecture, which has suffered drought for successive years. Why have you not come to send rain?” The old dragon replied, “May the Great Sage be informed: though I am able to make rain, I am one who acts only when dispatched by Heaven.，？」：「，，，？」：「？Without an order from Heaven, how would I dare come here and send rain on my own authority?” The Pilgrim said, “Passing through this region, I saw the people suffering from the long drought, and so I specially summoned you to bring rain and give them relief. Why make excuses?” The Dragon King said, “How would I dare make excuses?，。But when the Great Sage recited his formula and summoned me, I dared not fail to come.，，？For one thing, I have received no imperial decree from Heaven; for another, I did not bring the divine generals who make rain. How, then, can I set the Rain Department in motion?，，，，，。」Since the Great Sage is resolved to bring relief, allow this little dragon to return to the sea and muster his forces. Meanwhile, please go to the Celestial Palace to obtain approval and secure a sacred decree ordering rain; then ask the Water Officials to release the dragons, and I shall be able to rain precisely the amount commanded in the decree.”

Its bolt was as thick as a finger, and beneath it stood a bright lamp whose flame licked at the bolt.，：「？」：「，，，，，。」Not understanding their meaning, the Pilgrim turned and asked the Celestial Masters, “What does this signify?” They replied, “That fellow offended Heaven, so the Jade Emperor set up these three things. Only when the chicken has pecked up all the rice, the dog has licked up all the flour, and the lamp flame has burned through the lock bolt will rain be ordained for that region.”

、、、，。The prefect, together with Tripitaka, Bajie, Sha Monk, all the officials great and small, and the rest of the people came to meet him, crowding around and pressing him with questions.：「，，。」：「？」：「，？The Pilgrim shouted at the prefect, “It is solely because you offended Heaven and Earth on the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth month three years ago that the common people have been made to suffer, and now Heaven refuses to send rain.” In alarm, the prefect fell to his knees and asked, “Master, how did you learn what happened three years ago?” The Pilgrim said, “Why did you overturn the vegetarian offerings to Heaven and feed them to the dogs?。」，：「，，，，，，，，。Tell me the truth.” The prefect dared conceal nothing and said, “On the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth month three years ago, we presented offerings and held a vegetarian rite for Heaven here in the prefectural residence. Because my wife was lacking in virtue and quarreled with me in bitter words, I flew into a senseless rage, overturned the offering table, and spilled the vegetarian dishes. It is true that I called dogs to eat them.，，。For the past two years the memory has weighed on my mind, leaving my thoughts distracted, yet I had nowhere to explain or atone for it.，。I did not know that Heaven had found me guilty and brought harm upon the common people.，，？」：「，，，。」：「？」：「，；Now that the Master has descended among us, I beg you to explain clearly how the upper realm intends to deal with me.” The Pilgrim said, “That very day the Jade Emperor happened to descend to the mortal world. He saw you feed the sacred offerings to dogs and heard you utter filthy words, and he at once set up three things as a record against you.” Bajie asked, “What three things?” The Pilgrim replied, “In the Hall of Fragrant Mist stands a mountain of rice about a hundred feet high,，。and a mountain of flour about two hundred feet high.，、，；Beside the rice mountain is a little chicken no bigger than a fist, pecking at the rice, now quickly, now slowly;，、，。beside the flour mountain is a golden-haired pug, licking at the flour with its tongue, now stretching it out long, now drawing it back short.，，。On the left there is also an iron frame, with a great golden lock hanging from it, whose bolt is as thick as a finger.，。Beneath it stands a bright lamp, whose flame licks at the lock bolt.，，，。」：「，。Only when the chicken has pecked up all the rice, the dog has licked up all the flour, and the lamp has burned through the lock bolt will rain be ordained here.” Bajie laughed and said, “That is no great matter, no great matter.，，，，。」：「。If Elder Brother will take me there, I shall manifest my giant body, eat up all their rice and flour in one sitting, and break the lock bolt. Then rain is certain to fall.” The Pilgrim said, “Idiot, do not talk nonsense.，？」：「，？」：「，。Those are devices established by Heaven. How could you even get to see them?” Tripitaka asked, “If that is so, what are we to do?” The Pilgrim replied, “It is not difficult, not difficult.，，。」，：「，。」：「，，；When I left, the Four Celestial Masters told me that the matter could be resolved simply by doing good.” The prefect prostrated himself and pleaded sorrowfully, “Whatever the Master instructs, I shall submit to it in every particular.” The Pilgrim said, “If you turn your heart toward goodness, begin at once to invoke the Buddha and read the scriptures, and I shall still act on your behalf.，，，。」But if you remain as before and refuse to reform, even I cannot resolve the matter. Before long Heaven will strike you down, and your life will not be preserved.”

，，，，，、、，：「？」：「。」。The Pilgrim followed his advice. He entered the Gate of Heaven but did not go up to the Hall of Divine Mist to request a decree.

There the Messenger of the Thunder Gate, the Registrar of Corrections, and the Inspector-Registrar all came to meet him and saluted, saying, “What brings the Great Sage here?” The Pilgrim replied, “I have business with the Heavenly Worthy.” The three messengers immediately went in to announce him.，。The Heavenly Worthy at once descended from his nine-phoenix throne-screen of crimson clouds, straightened his robes, and came out to welcome him.，：「。」：「？」：「，，，。」：「，，？」：「。When their greetings were concluded, the Pilgrim said, “I have come especially to ask a favor.” The Heavenly Worthy asked, “What favor?” The Pilgrim replied, “While escorting the Tang Monk, I reached Fengxian Prefecture and saw how terribly it suffered from drought. I have already promised to obtain rain for them, and so have come especially to ask the loan of officers and generals from your honored department to sound thunder there.” The Heavenly Worthy said, “I know that the prefect offended Heaven and that three things were set up against him, but I do not know whether rain is yet ordained.” The Pilgrim laughed and said, “Yesterday I appeared before the Jade Emperor to request a decree.，、、，，。The Jade Emperor ordered the Celestial Masters to take me to the Hall of Fragrant Mist to see the three things: a mountain of rice, a mountain of flour, and a golden lock. Only when all three were exhausted or broken would rain be ordained.，，，。I despaired of their ever being exhausted or broken, but the Celestial Masters told me to exhort the prefect and his people to perform good deeds, for when human beings harbor good thoughts, Heaven is sure to follow them.，。In this way, perhaps Heaven’s heart might be turned and the calamity relieved.，。Now good thoughts have suddenly arisen, and voices of goodness fill the air.，，。」：「，、、、，，。」A moment ago, the Talismanic Messenger carried their documents attesting to their reform and return to goodness up to the Jade Emperor. Old Sun has therefore come especially to your honored palace to ask for the loan of officers and generals from the Thunder Department to lend us their aid.” The Heavenly Worthy said, “Since that is so, I shall dispatch Deng, Xin, Zhang, and Tao, together with the Lady of Lightning, to descend at once with the Great Sage to Fengxian Prefecture and sound the thunder.”

What it’s about

Phoenix-Immortal Prefecture has suffered years without rain. Its ruler begs the pilgrims for help, and Wukong goes to heaven to learn why ordinary weather offices cannot answer. The Jade Emperor imposed three impossible-looking conditions after the prefect offended heaven by overturning a vegetarian offering, letting dogs eat it and speaking irreverently. A mountain of rice must be eaten by a chicken, an iron chain licked through by a dog, and a lock melted by a lamp before rain may return.

Wukong recognizes that the material signs measure moral duration rather than setting a puzzle to solve by force. He returns and compels the prefect to repent, honor the Three Teachings and care for his people. Sincere reform changes the heavenly register; the rain dragons and thunder officials then release a saving downpour. Fields and households revive, and the grateful region sees the pilgrims onward. The miracle follows corrected rule, making rainfall a public judgment on the magistrate's conduct.

When it was written 背景

Traditional Chinese governance linked drought and other anomalies to a ruler's moral failures, while ritual petitions coordinated earthly administration with celestial offices. The tiny chicken, dog and lamp make punishment feel immeasurably long until repentance alters its premise. Learners should connect 乾旱, 求雨, 玉帝 and 改過. The chapter's endorsement of the Three Teachings—Buddhist, Daoist and Confucian—also broadens reform beyond sectarian victory: proper sacrifice, humane government and inward contrition together restore the ecological order.
