  Xuanzang and his disciples encountered Guanyin waiting to remind them to be careful in the nearby kingdom. Its king was hunting for four monks to complete his goal of killing ten thousand. The monkey stole clothes from some locals to conceal their identities as Buddhist monks. They entered the city and decided to sleep in a big trunk in a hostel to make sure no one could discover they were Buddhists while they slept. While in the trunk, the monkey baited hostel attendants by boasting that they were carrying a lot of silver. Local bandits got the word and stole the trunk containing the group in the middle of the night. However, soldiers noticed the burglars and fought to get the trunk back and presented it to the king. The monkey snuck out and shaved everyone in the royal palace bald with razors. The king was shocked the next day and realized that he had made many mistakes. When the group exited the trunk, the king decided to honor Buddhism and let the pilgrims leave safely.

  The Beachcomber by Damon Knight - Alice saw the Beachcomber as a glorious hunk of man; Maxwell saw him as a super being from the future. Tragically, he was both!... 
  Maxwell and the girl started their weekend on Thursday, in Venice. Friday they went to Paris, Saturday to Nice, and on Sunday they were bored. Alice pouted at him across the breakfast table. "Vernon, let's go someplace else," she said. 
  "Sure," said Maxwell, not too graciously. "Don't you want your bug eggs?" 
  Alice pushed them away. "If I ever did, I don't now. Why do you have to be so unpleasant in the morning?" 
  The eggs were insect eggs, all right, but they were on the menu as oeufs Procyon Thibault, and three of the half-inch brown spheres cost about one thousand times their value in calories. Maxwell was well paid as a script-writer for the North American Unit Ministry of Information—he bossed a gang of six gagmen on the Cosmic Cocktail show—but he was beginning to hate to think about what these five days were costing him. 
  "Where do you want to go?" asked Maxwell. Their coffee came out of the conveyer, steaming and fragrant, and he sipped his moodily. "Want to run over to Algiers? Or up to Stockholm?" 
  "No," said Alice. She leaned forward across the table and put up one long white hand to keep her honey-colored hair out of her eyes. "You don't know what I mean. I mean, let's go to some other planet." 
  Maxwell choked slightly and spilled coffee on the tabletop. "Europe is all right," Alice was saying with disdain, "but it's all getting to be just like Chicago. Let's go someplace different for once." 
  "And be back by tomorrow noon?" Maxwell demanded. "It's ten hours even to Proxima; we'd have just time to turn around and get back on the liner."
