總評 Commentary
A quick three-way aside among the disciples — Friar Sand wry, Bajie sceptical, Wukong airily confident. “Just watch me” is the hinge of the whole prank: what the immortals will receive as 聖水 (holy water) is about to be produced on the spot, and the disciples are being told to hold their poses and follow the Great Sage's lead.
