Hearing Zhu Bajie's nonsensical ramblings, Xuanzang couldn't help but frown and say, "Do not speak nonsense, there must be a reason behind all this."
Sand Monk also furrowed his brows and said, "We'd better ask someone about it later."
The group nodded in agreement, knowing they wouldn't guess the result here!
At that moment, Xuanzang pointed ahead and said, "Look, there is the Posthouse ahead. We can rest there for a while and at the same time, inquire about the situation."
Upon reaching the entrance, they explained their situation to the government officer guarding the gate. The officer immediately went inside to report, and not long after, the Posthouse Manager came out, hurrying to welcome Xuanzang and his companions into the Posthouse.
The Posthouse Manager led them to the guest hall to entertain them. After tea,
Xuanzang politely asked with a smile, "May I ask if it is possible to have an audience with the ruler today and exchange our pass permit?"
