Résumé

The Buddhist monk and his three disciples finally approach the western border of China. They find themselves in a kingdom where it hasn't rained for three years because the prefect has angered the King of Heaven. Sun Wukong brings rain and, of course, trouble. Continuing their journey, they meet a prince and his three sons. The sons want to learn how to use the disciples' magic weapons, but one night the magic weapons are stolen by a nearby lion demon.
When the disciples go to retrieve them, they encounter an entire family of lion demons, including a nine-headed lion with vast powers. This is the 29th book in the best-selling Journey to the West series of stories for students learning to read Chinese. It is based on the events in Chapters 87 through 90 of the epic 16th century novel of the same name by Wu Chen'en. That novel was inspired by an actual journey by the Buddhist monk Tangseng, who traveled from Chang'an westward to India in 629 A.
D. and returned seventeen years later with priceless knowledge and spiritual texts. Over the course of the book the four travelers face the 81 tribulations that Tangseng had to endure to attain Buddhahood. Books 1 through 29 in the Journey to the West series have used a total of about 2, 000 different Chinese words, but only 919 words are used in this book. We introduce 23 new words for the first time in this book, and each one is defined on the page where it is first used.
The book uses Simplified Chinese characters and includes pinyin, an English translation, and a full glossary. An audiobook is available on YouTube's Imagin8 Press channel.
