，，。A little later the old monster arose and summoned him inside.，，。The monster cast aside his weapon, fell prostrate in obeisance, and could not stop the tears streaming down his cheeks.：「，，，，？」：「，。The old monster said, “Worthy grandson, you sent an invitation yesterday, and I was just preparing to attend the banquet this morning. Why have you come in person, and why are you weeping in such distress?” Kowtowing, the monster said, “The night before last, your little grandson was strolling idly beneath the moon when I saw a radiance soaring into the sky from Yuhua Prefecture.，：，，。I hurried over to look and found that it came from three weapons in the prince’s residence: a nine-toothed gold-inlaid rake, a precious staff, and a gold-banded cudgel.，『』，，，，。Your little grandson immediately used magic to spirit them away, named the occasion the ‘Splendid Rake Banquet,’ and ordered my underlings to buy pigs, sheep, fruit, and other provisions, so that I might hold a celebratory feast and invite Ancestral Grandfather to enjoy the treasures and share in the merriment.，，。Yesterday, after I sent Green-Face to deliver the invitation, Diaozuan and the others whom I had dispatched to buy pigs and sheep returned driving several animals and brought with them a traveling merchant who had come to collect his money.，，。He insisted on seeing the banquet, but your little grandson feared that he would spread word of it outside and refused to let him look.，，。He then said he was hungry and begged for food, so I told them to feed him in the rear.，，。He went inside, saw the weapons, and claimed they were his.，：，，。The three of them each snatched up a weapon and revealed their true forms: one was a monk with a hairy face and a mouth like the Thunder God’s, another was a monk with a long snout and great ears, and the third was a monk with a dark, ill-favored face.，。Without asking who was right or wrong, they raised a shout and began striking wildly.，。Your little grandson hastily fetched my Four-Brilliance Spade, pursued them, and fought them, demanding to know who they were that dared play such tricks.，，，，，，，，。They said they were disciples of the Tang Monk, sent from the Great Tang in the Eastern Land to the Western Heaven; while passing through the prefectural city to exchange their travel rescript, they had been detained by the princes to teach them martial arts, and their three weapons had been placed in the courtyard as models for copies, whereupon I stole them—hence their anger and the ensuing fight.，。I do not know the names of those three monks, but all of them possess great abilities.，。Your little grandson could not withstand all three alone, and so I fled in defeat to Ancestral Grandfather.，，。」I beg you to draw your blade in my aid, capture those monks, and avenge me, thereby showing a grandsire’s love for his grandson.”

What it’s about

Wukong, Bajie and Sha Wujing disguise themselves to enter the yellow-lion spirit's weapons feast, where their stolen arms are displayed as trophies. The deception breaks into battle, and they recover cudgel, rake and staff while driving the demon from Tiger-Mouth Cave. The three princes see their teachers' methods tested beyond courtly demonstration: reconnaissance and coordinated fighting matter as much as spectacular technique.

The yellow lion flees to his ancestor, the nine-headed lion spirit of Nine-Bend Coil Cave. This elder gathers a wider clan of lion demons and counterattacks Jade-Flower County, capturing members of the royal household and threatening the pilgrims' new students. A theft motivated by vanity expands into a family war because kinship supplies refuge, troops and authority. Wukong's local victory therefore exposes a deeper hierarchy rather than completing the episode.

When it was written 背景

The weapons feast turns stolen objects into public claims of status; recovering them restores both practical capacity and reputation. Yet the yellow lion's appeal to an ancestor reveals that monsters, like gods and humans, inhabit networks of obligation. Learners should track 釘耙會, 偷, 老祖 and 九頭獅子. The shift from a relatively inexperienced thief to a many-headed patriarch sharply raises the scale, while the endangered princes connect their martial education to its first real civic responsibility: protecting the county rather than merely mastering forms.
