088Chapter 88

，：「，，，。」：「，，，？It is told that Tang Seng took cheerful leave of the prefect, and from horseback said to Xingzhe, “Worthy disciple, the good deed done here truly surpasses even the rescue of the children in the Kingdom of Bhikshus, and it is all thanks to you.” Shaseng said, “In the Kingdom of Bhikshus we saved only one thousand one hundred and eleven children; how can that compare with this great downpour, whose soaking abundance has preserved countless thousands upon thousands of lives?，。」：「，，，。Even I secretly admire Eldest Brother’s magic powers, which reach through Heaven, and his compassionate grace, which covers the earth.” Bajie laughed and said, “Brother has indeed shown grace and goodness, but outwardly he dispenses benevolence and righteousness while inwardly harboring a cruel heart.，。」：「？」：「，。Whenever Old Zhu travels with him, he is forever tormenting me.” Xingzhe said, “When have I ever tormented you?” Bajie replied, “More than enough, more than enough!，，，。You are always ‘looking after’ me by having me bound, ‘looking after’ me by having me hung up, ‘looking after’ me by having me boiled, and ‘looking after’ me by having me steamed.，，，。」，：「，？Now that you have bestowed favors upon the countless people of Fengxian Prefecture, we ought to stay for half a year and let me enjoy a few hearty meals in peace; instead, you do nothing but hurry us onward.” Hearing this, the elder scolded him: “You idiot! Why do you think of nothing but stuffing your mouth?，。」，，，，。Walk faster, and no more bickering.” Bajie dared say no more; he pursed his lips, shouldered the baggage, and yawned as master and disciples set out upon the highway.，，：By now time had flown like a shuttle, and it was once more late autumn. And this was what they saw:

，，，：「？」：「，。We tell now how the prince withdrew from the hall and entered the inner palace. There his three young sons saw that his expression had changed and asked, “Royal Father, why do you look so frightened today?” The prince replied, “Just now a monk sent from the Great Tang in the Eastern Land to worship the Buddha and seek the scriptures came to have his travel document endorsed. He himself was a man of extraordinary bearing.，，。I invited him to dine, but he said his disciples were waiting before the residence, so I ordered that they be summoned.，，，；When they entered a short while later, they did not perform the full court ceremony before me, but merely offered a greeting, which already displeased me.，，，。」，，：「，。」Then, when I raised my head and looked, each was as ugly as a demon. I was involuntarily terrified, and that is why my expression changed.” Now the three young princes were unlike ordinary men: each loved martial arts and delighted in proving his strength. At once they clenched their fists, rolled up their sleeves, and said, “Could they be demons from the mountains disguised in human shape? Let us take our weapons and go see.”

Fine treasures!，？Who could wield such things, and why have they been left here now?，，。」，，，。This too must be my destined good fortune. I shall take them away! I shall take them away!” As greed stirred in his heart, he raised a mighty wind, swept up all three weapons in a single stroke, and returned directly to his cave.：And so it was that:

What it’s about

At Jade-Flower County, the pilgrims meet three young princes fascinated by their supernatural weapons. After watching Wukong, Bajie and Sha Wujing demonstrate cudgel, rake and staff, the princes ask to become their disciples. The travelers agree and teach each student according to his chosen master. Royal curiosity is redirected into disciplined practice, and the court orders local smiths to make lighter copies suitable for human bodies.

The enormous originals are left at the smithy as models. During the night, a yellow-lion spirit nearby sees their radiance and sends lesser demons to steal all three weapons. The next morning masters, princes and craftsmen discover the loss, transforming a friendly interlude into a threat. Wukong investigates and traces the theft toward Tiger-Mouth Cave. The chapter thus pairs imitation with possession: the princes seek forms they can responsibly learn, while the demons simply appropriate the prestige and power of the originals.

When it was written 背景

The apprenticeship offers a rare pause in which the disciples themselves become masters. Each weapon expresses a distinct body and style, so replicas must be scaled rather than treated as magical shortcuts. Learners can follow 王子, 拜師, 兵器 and 打造 as admiration becomes instruction and craft. The theft then tests what ownership means: without their signature arms the pilgrims retain skill and identity, whereas the yellow lion hopes display can transfer authority. The episode also begins the novel's final extended cluster of lion spirits.
