The Bodhisattva too was greatly pleased and said: 'Granted, granted.' She then asked: 'How did the conduct of Tang Seng and his three companions fare along the way?' The various spirits replied: 'Truly their hearts were devout and their wills sincere — we dare say nothing escaped the Bodhisattva's own clear sight.'，。It is only that the sufferings Tang Seng endured are truly beyond words.，，。」，：All the calamities and hardships he passed through on the road, we disciples have carefully recorded here — this is the register of his tribulations.'

，。Sanzang's feet touched the mortal ground, and he felt his heart give a start.：「，。」：「，，。」：「：『，。』」：「，，？」：「，。Bajie laughed loudly, ho-ho: 'Good, good, good — this is a case of "haste makes for delay."' Sha Seng said: 'Good, good, good — it's because we were going a bit too fast, so we're made to rest here a while.' The Great Sage said: 'As the common saying goes: "Ten days sitting at the river shoal, one day covering nine shoals."' Sanzang said: 'You three, stop your bickering, and get your bearings — see what place this is.'，。」：「。」：「。」：「，，。」：「，？」，，，：「，。」：「。Sha Seng turned his head to look about on all sides and said: 'It's here, it's here. Master, listen to the sound of the water.' Xingzhe said: 'The sound of water — that must be your old ancestral home.' Bajie said: 'His ancestral home is the Flowing Sands River.' Sha Seng said: 'No, no, this is the River That Reaches Heaven.' Sanzang said: 'Disciples, look carefully — which shore is it?' Xingzhe leapt up into the air, shaded his eyes with his hand, looked carefully, and came down saying: 'Master, this is the western shore of the River That Reaches Heaven.' Sanzang said: 'Now I remember.。On the eastern shore there was once Chen Family Village.，，，，。That year when we arrived there, we were fortunate that you saved his son and daughter, and out of deep gratitude to us they wished to build a boat to see us across — luckily the white turtle came and carried us over instead.，？」：「，。I recall that on the western shore there was no human habitation for miles around — what shall we do this time?' Bajie said: 'They say mortal men know how to play tricks, but it turns out that even these Vajra Guardians before the Buddha's own face know how to play tricks too.'，，？'They received the Buddha's decree to escort us back east — how could they abandon us halfway on the road?'？'Are we not now caught in a plight where we can neither advance nor retreat?'？」：「。'How are we to get across?' Sha Seng said: 'Second Brother, stop complaining.'，，。'Our master has already attained the Way; earlier at Lingyun Ferry he already shed his mortal frame — this time he surely will not fall into the water.'，。」：「，。」？'Let Elder Brother, you, and I all perform the technique of levitation, and bear the master across.' Xingzhe kept quietly laughing to himself: 'Can't carry him across, can't carry him across.' Just see now — why should he say it can't be done?，，。If he had been willing to display his divine powers and reveal the secret mystery of flying through the air, then master and disciples could have crossed a thousand rivers just the same.，，，。It was only because in his heart he understood clearly that Tang Seng's number of nine-times-nine tribulations was not yet complete, that one more ordeal was still due him, and so he purposely detained them here.

Xingzhe laughed and said: 'Old Turtle, we troubled you in years past, and this year we meet again.' Sanzang, together with Bajie and Sha Seng, were all overjoyed beyond measure.：「，，。」。Xingzhe said: 'Old Turtle, if you truly mean to receive us, then come up onto the bank.' The turtle at once leapt up and crawled up out of the river.，，，。Xingzhe called for the horse to be led up onto its back; Bajie crouched behind the horse's tail, Tang Seng stood to the left of the horse's neck, and Sha Seng stood to the right.，：「，。」，，，，，。Xingzhe planted one foot on the old turtle's neck and the other on its head, and called: 'Old Turtle, mind you walk steady now.' The old turtle spread its four feet and trod upon the water's surface as though walking on level ground, bearing master and disciples, four people and the horse, five in all, upon its back, and made straight for the eastern shore.：Truly it may be said:

，，，，，：「，，，，？」，，，，，，，，。The old turtle bore them on, treading the waves and skimming the ripples, and had gone more than half a day; as day was about to turn to evening, and they were drawing close to the eastern shore, it suddenly asked: 'Old Master, in years past I begged you, once you reached the Western Region and saw our Buddha Tathagata, to ask on my behalf about my own final disposition — how many more years of life I might have — did you in fact ask this?' It happened that ever since the elder had bathed at the Yuzhen Temple in the Western Heaven, shed his mortal frame at Lingyun Ferry, and climbed up to Vulture Peak, he had given his whole mind to worshipping the Buddha, and in paying homage to the various Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and holy monks, his thoughts had been fixed solely on obtaining the scriptures, giving not the least attention to any other matter — and so he had never asked about the old turtle's years of life, and now had no words with which to answer.，，，。Yet he dared not deceive it with a lying word, and so he pondered in silence for a long while without answering.，，，，。The old turtle at once knew that its request had not been made on its behalf, and with a shake of its body, went plunging down into the water with a splash, so that the four of them, together with the horse and the scriptures, all fell into the water.！Ai!，；Fortunately, Tang Seng had already shed his mortal frame and attained the Way;，。had it been as in times before, he would surely have already sunk to the bottom.，、，，，。And fortunately too, the white horse was a dragon, and Bajie and Sha Seng both knew how to swim, while Xingzhe, smiling faintly, displayed his great magic powers and supported Tang Seng, bringing him up out of the water and onto the eastern shore.、、。Only the bundles of scriptures, their clothes, and the saddle and bridle were all soaked through.

，，，，。Master and disciples had just climbed onto the shore and begun to set things in order when suddenly another fierce wind arose; the sky turned dark, thunder and lightning broke out together, and rocks rolled and sand flew.：One could only see:

，，；Sanzang, terrified, pressed down on the scripture bundle; Sha Seng held down the scripture carrying-pole; Bajie held fast to the white horse;，。while Xingzhe, with both hands, whirled up his iron rod, guarding them on left and right.、、、熌，，。It turned out that the wind, fog, thunder, and lightning were all the doing of dark demons raising a signal, wishing to seize the scriptures they had obtained.，，。They struggled through the disturbance the whole night, and only at dawn did it finally cease.，：「，？」：「，。The elder, his clothes soaked through, said trembling: 'Wukong, how did this come about?' Xingzhe, panting with anger, said: 'Master, you do not know the reason behind it.'，，，，，。'In protecting you to obtain these scriptures, we have seized the very achievement of Heaven and Earth's own creative power — a thing that may endure as long as Heaven and Earth themselves, shine as bright as sun and moon, grant life everlasting like unfading spring, and a Dharma-body that never decays.'，，。'This is precisely why Heaven and Earth cannot tolerate it, and ghosts and spirits begrudge it, and why they wished to come and seize it in secret.'；'In the first place, these scriptures were already soaked through with water;'，，，；'in the second place, your own true Dharma-body was pressing them down, so the thunder could not strike them, the lightning could not illuminate them, and the fog could not bewilder them;'，，；'and further, old Sun was whirling his iron rod, exerting the nature of pure yang, and so guarded and upheld them;'，：。」、、，。'and by the time dawn came, the yang energy grew strong again — that is why they could not be carried off.' Only then did Sanzang, Bajie, and Sha Seng come to understand, and each thanked him without end.

，，：「，。」：「？」：「。」，，：「，，，？Those several fishermen walked past the southern inlet and happened to meet Chen Cheng, and called out: 'Second Elder, the master who two years ago took the place of the sacrifice for your son has come back!' Chen Cheng said: 'Where did you see him?' The fisherman pointed back and said: 'They are all drying scriptures on that rock over there.' Chen Cheng at once brought several tenant farmers with him, walked past the inlet, and caught sight of them; he ran up close and knelt down, saying: 'My lord, you have returned from fetching the scriptures, your merit accomplished and your task complete — why did you not come to my humble house, but instead busy yourselves here?'，。」：「，。」：「、，？」：「，。'Pray come quickly, quickly come to my house.' Xingzhe said: 'Once the scriptures are dry, we will go with you.' Chen Cheng then asked further: 'My lord, how did your scriptures and clothing come to be wet?' Sanzang said: 'In years past we were indebted to the white turtle for carrying us across the river to the west, and this year we were again favored by him carrying us across the river to the east.'，，，，。」。'We were already near the shore when he asked about the matter he had entrusted to us in years past, to inquire of the Buddha about the span of his years — which I had, in truth, never asked — and so he plunged down into the water, and that is how these got wet.' And he related the whole affair, from beginning to end, once again in detail.，，。Chen Cheng bowed and pressed his invitation most earnestly, and Sanzang, having no choice, thereupon gathered up the scripture scrolls.《》，。Unexpectedly, several scrolls of the Sutra of the Buddha's Past Deeds had stuck fast to the rock, and so the ends of the scrolls were torn as they were pulled free.《》，。That is why to this day the Sutra of the Buddha's Past Deeds is incomplete, and traces of characters can still be seen upon the scripture-drying rock.：「，。」：「，。Sanzang said with regret: 'It is our own negligence — we failed to watch over them properly.' Xingzhe laughed and said: 'It is not that, it is not that.'，，，，？」，。'For Heaven and Earth themselves are not complete — these scriptures were originally whole and entire, but now that they are torn, this but fulfills the deep mystery of incompleteness. How could this be something human effort could have prevented?' Master and disciples, having indeed finished packing up, went together with Chen Cheng to the village.

What it’s about

Guanyin reviews the pilgrimage register and discovers that Sanzang has endured only eighty ordeals, one short of the complete number nine times nine. The returning party is therefore dropped beside the Heaven-Reaching River, where the great white turtle who once carried them asks whether Sanzang remembered to ask the Buddha when it might attain human form. Sanzang admits he forgot. The turtle overturns them in the water, creating the required final calamity and soaking the scriptures.

Local people help dry the scrolls on a rock, but part of a text sticks and tears when it is lifted, leaving a permanent imperfection. Tempters then try to seize the scriptures, and the pilgrims protect them before continuing east. Completion is numerical and ritual, not a claim that every promise was kept or every page remained whole. Sanzang's lapse toward the turtle and the damaged canon preserve consequences inside success, while the last ordeal repeats the river crossing as an ethical reckoning.

When it was written 背景

Eighty-one, the square of nine, signifies a maximally complete cycle, so the heavenly ledger treats tribulation itself as a necessary measure of attainment. The turtle's grievance also recalls a promise made many chapters earlier, rewarding readers who remember what the pilgrim forgot. Learners can follow 八十一難, 老黿, 曬經 and 沾破. The torn scripture is especially important: transmitted teaching enters the human world through vulnerable paper, and formal completion accommodates loss rather than restoring a magically flawless book.
