After explaining everything to my junior brothers, I did not sleep, but came here with the two of them.。」:「?」:「I feared it would be inconvenient to fight in the depth of night, and I did not know where you were, so I transformed myself and came in to investigate.” Tang Seng said gladly, “Are Bajie and Shaseng outside now?” Xingzhe said, “They are outside.Just now, when I looked, all the demons were asleep.。」Let me undo your lock, force open the gate, and take you out.” Tang Seng nodded and thanked him.

The clappers and bells have all fallen silent!” The lesser demons, exhausted after a full day’s fighting, had all fallen sound asleep. Only when they heard the call did they wake; whereupon clappers and bells sounded, and several of them, carrying weapons and beating a gong, came from the rear and ran straight into master and disciple.:「?」The lesser demons all shouted, “A fine monk you are!

三僧三怪赌斗多时,不见输赢。那辟寒大王喊一声,叫:「小的们上来。」众精各执兵刃齐来,早把个八戒绊倒在地,被几个水牛精揪揪扯扯,拖入洞里捆了。沙僧见没了八戒,只见那群牛发喊𡅃声。即掣宝杖,望辟尘大王虚丢了架子要走。又被群精一拥而来,拉一个躘踵,急挣不起,也被捉去捆了。行者觉道难为,纵觔斗云,脱身而去。当时把八戒、沙僧拖至唐僧前。唐僧见了,满眼垂泪道:「可怜你二人也遭了毒手。悟空何在?」沙僧道:「师兄见捉住我们,他就走了。」唐僧道:「他既走了,必然那里去求救。但我等不知何日方得脱网。」师徒们凄凄惨惨不题。

:「?」:「Now Xingzhe rode his somersault cloud back to Ciyun Monastery. The monks received him and asked, “Did you rescue Master Tang?” Xingzhe replied, “Hard to rescue him—very hard!。」:「。」:「Those demons possess tremendous powers. The three of us fought the three of them for a long while, but they summoned the lesser demons, who first captured Bajie and then Shaseng. Only old Sun was fortunate enough to escape.” The monks said fearfully, “Grandfather, even with your ability to soar through the clouds and ride the mist, you could not overcome them; it seems the venerable master is doomed.” Xingzhe said, “Never fear, never fear.My master is secretly protected by such gods as the Jialan Guardians, the Jiedi Guardians, and the Spirits of the Six Ding and Six Jia; moreover, he has eaten the Herb-Returning Elixir, so I doubt his life will be harmed.。」:「?」:「It is only that the demons are highly capable. Guard the horse and baggage well while old Sun goes to Heaven to ask for reinforcements.” The monks said timidly, “Grandfather, can you go up to Heaven too?” Xingzhe laughed and said, “The Celestial Palace is my old home.Years ago, when I was Qitian Dasheng, I disrupted the Peach Banquet and was subdued by my Buddha.Now, having no choice, I protect Tang Seng on his quest for scriptures, redeeming my crimes through merit and upholding the righteous while destroying evil all along the way.。」My master was fated to suffer this ordeal, though none of you knew it.” Hearing this, the monks again kowtowed in reverence.Xingzhe went out through the gate, gave a sharp whistle, and vanished at once.

The splendid Dasheng soon reached the Western Gate of Heaven.There he suddenly saw Taibai Jinxing conversing with Zengzhang Tianwang and the four Great Divine Officers Yin, Zhu, Tao, and Xu.:「?」:「When they saw Xingzhe arrive, they hurriedly saluted and asked, “Where are you going, Dasheng?” Xingzhe replied, “While escorting Tang Seng, we reached Mintian County in Jinping Prefecture, on the eastern border of Tianzhu. The monks of the local Ciyun Monastery invited my master to stay and view the Lantern Festival.By the time we reached Jindeng Bridge, there were three golden lamps burning fragrant butter-oil worth over fifty thousand taels of silver, said to be enjoyed each year by buddhas who descended to bestow blessings.While we watched, three figures in the likeness of buddhas indeed descended.My master, unable to tell good from evil, went onto the bridge and bowed.I said they were no good, but they had already darkened the lamps by trickery and swept away both the oil and my master in a gust of wind.I pursued the wind until dawn and reached a mountain, where fortunately the Four Duty Gods informed me that it was Qinglong Mountain, upon which stood Xuanying Cave.In the cave dwell three monsters named King Bihan, King Bishu, and King Bichen.Old Sun hastened to their gate and demanded my master back. I fought them for a time but could not prevail.I transformed myself and went inside, where I found Master chained but unharmed. I freed him and was about to lead him out when they discovered us, and so I escaped.Later I fought them bitterly with Bajie and Shaseng, but they captured and bound those two as well.。」:「?」:「For this reason old Sun has come especially to petition the Jade Emperor to investigate their origins and authorize troops to subdue them.” Jinxing chuckled coldly and said, “Dasheng, after contending with the monsters, could you not discern their origins?” Xingzhe replied, “I could, I could: they are a herd of ox-spirits.。」:「But their magic is so great that I could not subdue them in haste.” Jinxing said, “They are three rhinoceros spirits.Because their forms correspond to celestial signs, they have cultivated understanding over many years and attained the truth; they too can fly upon clouds and walk through mist.Such creatures are exceedingly fond of cleanliness and constantly dislike the sight of their own shadows, so they often wish to bathe in water.They have many names and kinds: the si-rhinoceros, the male rhinoceros, the bull rhinoceros, the spotted rhinoceros, the humao rhinoceros, the duoluo rhinoceros, and the sky-piercing flower-patterned rhinoceros.All have three hairs in each pore and two horns; traveling through rivers and seas, they can open passages through the water.As for Bihan, Bishu, and Bichen, their horns all possess a noble aura, which is why they bear those names and style themselves kings.。」:「If you wish to capture them, they will submit at the mere sight of the Four Wood Birds.” Xingzhe hurriedly bowed and asked, “Which are the Four Wood Birds?。」:「May Venerable Changgeng explain them to me one by one.” Jinxing laughed and said, “These stars are arrayed throughout the heavens beyond the Palace of the Dipper and Ox.。」Go report to the Jade Emperor, and all will become clear.” Xingzhe cupped his hands in thanks and went straight through the Gate of Heaven.

及至宫外,早有二十八宿星辰来接。天师道:「吾奉圣旨,教点四木禽星与孙大圣下界降妖。」傍即闪过角木蛟、斗木獬、奎木狼、井木犴应声呼道:「孙大圣,点我等何处降妖?」行者笑道:「原来是你。这长庚老儿却隐匿,我不解其意。早说是二十八宿中的四木,老孙径来相请,又何必劳烦旨意?」四木道:「大圣说那里话,我等不奉旨意,谁敢擅离?端的是那方?快早去来。」行者道:「在金平府东北艮地青龙山玄英洞,犀牛成精。」斗木獬、奎木狼、角木蛟道:「若果是犀牛成精,不须我们,只消井宿去罢,他能上山吃虎,下海擒犀。」行者道:「那犀不比望月之犀,乃是修行得道,都有千年之寿者。须得四位同去才好,切勿推调。倘一时一位拿他不住,却不又费事了?」天师道:「你们说得是甚话?旨意著你四人,岂可不去?趁早飞行。我回旨去也。」那天师遂别行者而去。

:「。」:「The Four Wood Stars said, “Dasheng, do not delay. Go first and challenge them, drawing them outside; we shall follow and strike.” Xingzhe at once approached the cave and cursed, “You oil-stealing demon thieves!。」Return my master!” The gate had been smashed by Bajie, and several lesser demons had propped up a few planks to block the opening.:「。!」:「Hearing the abuse from within, they rushed in to report, “Great Kings, the monk Sun is outside reviling us!” Bichen said, “He fled in defeat; why has he come back after only a day?。」:「He must have gone somewhere to obtain reinforcements.” Bihan and Bishu said, “Why fear any reinforcements he may bring?Bring our armor at once.。」:「。」Underlings, surround him with care and do not let him escape.” Ignorant that death awaited them, the demons each seized spear or saber, waved their banners, beat their drums, and poured out of the cave, shouting at Xingzhe, “You little macaque who never learns from a beating—you have come again!” Nothing enraged Xingzhe more than the word “macaque”; grinding his teeth in fury, he raised his iron staff and struck.The three demon kings directed their underlings to form a circling formation and enclosed Xingzhe at its heart.:「From the other side, each of the Four Wood Birds brandished his weapon and cried, “Wicked beasts!。」:「Cease fighting!” When the three demon kings saw the four stars, they naturally grew afraid and all cried, “Disaster! Disaster! He has brought those destined to subdue us!。」Underlings, flee and save your own lives!” Amid roaring, bellowing, panting, and snorting, all the lesser demons revealed their true forms: they were mountain-cattle spirits, buffalo spirits, and yellow-ox spirits, now fleeing wildly all over the mountain.The three demon kings also resumed their true forms, dropped their hands to become four-legged beasts once more, and, like iron cannonballs, raced straight northeastward.Dasheng led Jingmu An and Jiaomu Jiao in close and relentless pursuit, never slackening for an instant.Meanwhile, Doumu Xie and Kuimu Lang, in the hollows of the eastern mountain, upon its peaks, and throughout its ravines and valleys, either killed or captured every last ox-spirit.They then entered Xuanying Cave and freed Tang Seng, Bajie, and Shaseng.

四木道:「大圣不必迟疑,你先去索战,引他出来,我们随后动手。」行者即近前骂道:「偷油的贼怪!还我师来。」原来那门被八戒筑破,几个小妖弄了几块板儿搪住。在里边听得骂詈,急跑进报道:「大王,孙和尚在外面骂哩。!」辟尘儿道:「他败阵去了,这一日怎么又来?想是那里求些救兵来了。」辟寒、辟暑道:「怕他甚么救兵?快取披挂来。小的们都要用心围绕,休放他走了。」那伙精不知死活,一个个各执枪刀,摇旗擂鼓,走出洞来,对行者喝道:「你个不怕打的猢狲儿,你又来了。」行者最恼得是这「猢狲」二字,咬牙发狠,举铁棒就打。三个妖王调小妖,跑个圈子阵,把行者圈在垓心。那壁厢四木禽星一个个各抡兵刃道:「孽畜!休动手。」那三个妖王看他四星,自然害怕,俱道:「不好了,不好了,他寻将降手儿来了。小的们,各顾性命走耶。」只听得呼呼吼吼,喘喘呵呵,众小妖都现了本身,原来是那山牛精、水牛精、黄牛精,满山乱跑。那三个妖王,也现了本相,放下手来,还是四只蹄子,就如铁炮一般,径往东北上跑。这大圣帅井木犴、角木蛟紧追急赶,略不放松。惟有斗木獬、奎木狼在东山凹里、山头上、山涧中、山谷内,把些牛精打死的、活捉的,尽皆收净。却向玄英洞里解了唐僧、八戒、沙僧。

Shaseng recognized the two stars and joined the others in bowing his thanks.:「?」:「。」:「?」:「He asked, “How did you two come here to rescue us?” The two stars replied, “Sun Dasheng petitioned the Jade Emperor, who ordered us here to subdue the monsters and rescue you.” Tang Seng again shed tears and said, “Why do I not see my disciple Wukong coming in?” The two stars replied, “Those three old monsters are three rhinoceroses. When they saw us, each fled for his life northeastward, and Sun Dasheng has gone in pursuit with Jingmu An and Jiaomu Jiao.。」We two stars swept away the herd of ox-demons and came here expressly to set the holy monk free.” Tang Seng again bowed his head to the ground in thanks, then bowed toward Heaven.:「Bajie helped him up and said, “Master, excessive courtesy smacks of deceit; you need not keep bowing.The four Star Officers came first by the Jade Emperor’s sacred decree and second through Elder Brother’s good offices.Now that the lesser demons have been swept away, we still do not know whether the old monsters have been subdued.。」:「Let us gather up whatever valuables we can, overturn this cave to destroy their very roots, and return to the monastery to await Elder Brother.” Kuimu Lang said, “Marshal Tianpeng speaks wisely.”。」:「“You and the Curtain-Raising General escort your master back to the monastery to rest, while we return northeast to meet the enemy.” Bajie said, “Exactly, exactly.”。」“You two should join forces to capture them; we must wipe them out before we can properly report back.” The two Star Lords immediately set off in pursuit.

On meeting Wukong, he could not cease thanking them: “I am deeply indebted to the exalted Star Lords for rescuing us.Not seeing my worthy disciple, I was constantly anxious; happily, you have now returned victorious.?」:「Yet in what direction did you pursue these monsters before finally capturing them?” Wukong said, “After leaving honored Master the day before yesterday, old Sun went to Heaven to investigate. Taibai Jinxing recognized the demons as rhinoceroses and directed me to summon the four Wood-Beast Stars.I reported the matter to the Jade Emperor, who graciously issued his decree and appointed them. We went straight to the cave mouth and gave battle, but the demon kings escaped.Then, thanks to the two Stars Dou and Kui, honored Master was rescued.。」Old Sun joined forces with the two Stars Jing and Jiao and pursued the demons all the way to the Western Ocean. There the Dragon King kindly sent his son and troops to our aid, and thus we captured them and brought them here for judgment.” The elder praised and thanked them without end.He also saw the prefect, county magistrates, assistant officials, and their chiefs burning precious candles high and whole bushels of incense as they bowed toward the heavens.

After a while, Bajie’s temper flared. Drawing his monk’s knife, he cut off Bichen’s head with one stroke and Bishu’s with another.He then fetched a saw and cut off their four horns.Sun Dasheng had a further plan: he told the four Star Lords to take these four rhinoceros horns to the celestial realm, present them as tribute to the Jade Emperor, and report the fulfillment of his decree.Of the two horns he himself had brought, he left one in the prefectural treasury as proof that the levy of lamp oil was henceforth abolished;the other he kept to take to Vulture Peak and offer to the Buddha.The four Stars were delighted.They immediately bade Dasheng farewell, mounted colored clouds, and returned to make their report.

师徒们索性宽怀领受。又被那二百四十家灯油大户这家酬,那家请,略无虚刻。八戒遂心满意受用,把洞里搜来的宝物,每样各笼些须在袖,以为各家斋筵之赏。住经个月,犹不得起身。长老吩咐:「悟空,将余剩的宝物尽送慈云寺僧,以为酬礼。瞒著那些大户人家,天不明走罢。恐只管贪乐,误了取经,惹佛祖见罪,又生灾厄,深为不便。」行者随将前件一一处分。

Early in the fifth watch the next morning, they rose, and Bajie was called to saddle the horse.:「?」:「。」:「The idiot, having eaten and drunk at ease, was sleeping soundly. Starting from his dreams, he said, “Why saddle the horse so early?” Wukong shouted, “Master says we are leaving.” Rubbing his face, the idiot said, “That elder is being unreasonable again.?」:「All two hundred and forty wealthy households mean to invite us, and we have eaten only thirty-odd full vegetarian meals. Why is he making old Zhu go hungry again?” Hearing this, the elder cursed him: “You swill-guzzling oaf, stop your nonsense and get up at once!。」:「If you talk back again, I shall have Wukong knock out your teeth with his golden-hooped staff.” Hearing talk of a beating, the idiot panicked and said, “Master has changed this time. Usually he cherishes and favors me, and protects me because I am stupid and clumsy; whenever my brother means to beat me, he talks him out of it.?」:「Why is he so fierce today that he actually orders him to beat me?” Wukong said, “Master is angry that your appetite is delaying our journey.!」:「。」Hurry and pack the luggage and saddle the horse, if you want to escape a beating!” The idiot truly feared being beaten; he leaped up, dressed, and shouted to Sha Seng, “Get up quickly—the beating is coming!” Sha Seng also sprang up, and soon they had everything packed.:「。」The elder waved his hand and said, “Quietly, quietly; do not wake the monks.” He swiftly mounted, they opened the monastery gate, found the road, and departed.Of this departure it may truly be said:

What it’s about

The three disciples assault Dark-Mystery Cave, fighting the rhinoceros kings Cold-Avoiding, Heat-Avoiding and Dust-Avoiding. Their horns can draw in Wukong's forces, and the battle drives the brothers from their mountain toward the Western Ocean. Wukong seeks celestial intelligence and learns from the star officials that rhinoceros spirits are properly countered by four Wood-associated constellations, whose animal forms include creatures able to master horned beasts.

With these four star lords and the Western Ocean dragon forces, the disciples surround the fugitives. One rhinoceros is killed and the other two are captured; Sanzang is freed and Jinping's stolen oil is no longer demanded. The victors bring the captives back for public identification before punishment and distribution of their horns. What began as worship ends in taxonomy: once the false Buddhas are named as animals, specialized cosmic relationships replace the city's helpless awe.

When it was written 背景

The four Wood stars belong to the twenty-eight lunar lodges, a celestial system the novel repeatedly turns into a cast of active officials. Their intervention illustrates cosmological correspondence rather than simple escalation: the right kind of creature defeats a power that brute force cannot. Learners should connect 犀牛, 四木禽星, 西海 and 收伏. The valuable horns also leave an uncomfortable material afterlife, since exposure of fraudulent religion does not prevent court, dragon palace and pilgrims from treating the monsters' bodies as trophies and tribute.
