After Wukong and Guanyin came to Yingchou Stream, Tang Sanzang paid his respects to Guanyin.
"What if he doesn't come out when I call him?" Wukong said.
Guan Yin Bodhisattva said,"Just go over and say,'Ao Lie, the third prince of Ao Run Dragon King of the West Sea, Yu Long, Ao Lie, the Guan Yin Bodhisattva of the South Sea is here. Come out quickly.' And he came out.”
"Ao Lie, Third Prince of Ao Run Dragon King of the Western Sea," Wukong called out,"Guan Yin Bodhisattva of the Southern Sea is here. Why don't you come out and pay your respects?"”
"Please rise, Third Prince," said Guan Yin Bodhisattva.”Then he pulled him to Tang Sanzang and said,""This is Tang Xuanzang, the person I told you about before and asked you to protect. Now, you can acknowledge him as your master.”
Tang Sanzang hurriedly said,"Disciple, please get up quickly."”As she spoke, she helped him up.
Guan Yin Bodhisattva then said to the little white dragon," Your master's horse was eaten by you. His legs aren't good, so you can be his mount and carry him to the Western Paradise."”
"Yes, the little white dragon replied. Therefore, Guan Yin Bodhisattva took out a willow branch from the jade bottle, dipped it in a few drops of water, and sprinkled it on the little white dragon."Change!" As expected, the little white dragon turned into a horse.
He saw a white horse with strong limbs galloping in the sky. Wukong felt an itch in his heart (don't misunderstand, it's not the itch of seeing a beautiful woman, but the feeling of wanting to try something beautiful). After saying goodbye to Guan Yin Bodhisattva and Tang Sanzang, he flew into the sky and rushed to the white horse. He stepped on the back of the white horse and then circled around. Only then did he drive the white horse to Guan Yin Bodhisattva and Tang Sanzang.
Guanyin said to Wukong," Wukong, come over to me. There will be many calamities in this journey to the west. I will give you another ability-three hairs. You will have a use for them in the future."”After saying that, he plucked three willow leaves from the willow branch in the jade bottle and threw them at Wukong's head. He said,"Long!" The three willow branches turned into three strands of monkey hair and grew on Wukong's head.
Sun Wukong was walking behind Tang Sanzang and thinking about the interspatial ring. Suddenly, Tang Sanzang's voice came from the front,""Wukong, look, what's that in front?”
Wu Moxiang looked forward and saw a magnificent, glittering building complex. Wukong didn't know where it was. The master and disciple walked closer and saw that it was a monastery. There was a plaque hanging on the gate, and there were four golden words on it-Guanyin Zen Temple. "So this is the Guanyin Zen Temple! As expected, it lived up to its reputation. It was indeed that thing. It was magnificent. He reckoned that the headmaster must be a vain person who liked to collect rare treasures.”Wukong thought.
Wukong then helped Tang Sanzang off the horse and walked towards Guanyin Temple. Because Tang Sanzang had said that on the way to the west, he wanted to see Buddha and worship Buddha. He wanted to see pagodas and sweep pagodas. Now that they saw a monastery, they naturally had to pay their respects. Moreover, it was already late, and they wanted to stay in this courtyard for the night.
Tang Sanzang was in front, and Wukong was behind, leading the horse. A gatekeeper monk saw them walking towards the monastery and went up to Tang Sanzang, saying,""Master, where did you come from and where are you going?”
Tang Sanzang replied," I came from the Tang of the East and went to the Western Heaven to worship Buddha and ask for scriptures. I saw your temple and came to worship Buddha. I also wanted to stay in your temple for a night."”
The monk took him to see the head of the Guanyin Zen Monastery. The head arranged a place for them to stay and asked them to eat together. After the meal, they would sit together to have tea, chat, and exchange Buddhist teachings. From their conversation, Wukong and Tang Sanzang learned that the headmaster was already 270 years old and loved to collect rare treasures.
Even the child served tea with a jade plate and a blue tea bell inlaid with gold. It was very precious. Tang Sanzang naturally praised the good stuff. "The Tang Empire is rich and powerful. There should be many good things, right?" the old headmaster asked Tang Sanzang.”
"We're just monks," said Wukong hurriedly,"How can we have any treasures?"”He didn't want to cause any more trouble. Not only did Tang Sanzang have a precious kasaya given by Guanyin, but in the original novel, it was also because of Sun Wukong's vanity that the kasaya was stolen.
The matter of giving birth to a black bear spirit. However, the journey to obtain the scriptures was supposed to be difficult, so how could he avoid it? Tang Sanzang said,"I originally didn't have any treasures, but fortunately, I obtained a kasaya before I set off. It should be considered a treasure."
Seeing that they didn't believe him, Tang Sanzang's vanity began to wreak havoc. He said to Wukong,"Wukong, go to my bag and take out that kasaya. Let them see it.”
"Forget it," Wukong said.
"I told you to take it. Take it out and let them see what a real treasure is.”
Wukong had no choice but to take out the cassock and hand it to Tang Sanzang.
Tang Sanzang said," This was personally given to me by Guan Yin Bodhisattva before I set off. What else does the old headmaster have to say? Do you dare to say that it's not a treasure?"”
The old headmaster said," I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare. This is indeed a treasure. It's a pity that I'm not fated to be with him."”
"Why not?" Tang Sanzang asked.
The old headmaster said," Master, this treasure has just been opened. It's late, but my eyes are blurry and I can't see clearly. Isn't it fate?!"”
The old monk said,"Grandpa's treasure is already bright. If you light it up, it will be even more dazzling. You can't see it clearly at all."”
