8. The gate of the cave was shut,so the Monkey King had to wait outsides.After a while,a fairy child came out.He said,"My master,P'u-t'i,told me that a man who wishes to practice Buddhism is waiting outside the gate.Is it you?"The Monkey King hastened to answer,"Yes,it is I." | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
