Now it is told that the two Pilgrims went brawling on to the back of the Shadowy Mountain, frightening the ghosts of the whole mountain into trembling and quaking, hiding and dodging.

藏藏躲躲 uses 藏 twice as cáng, to hide — the same character that reads zàng in the name 三藏 and in 地藏王 a few lines further on. 諕 is xià, to frighten, and 諕得 takes the light de.

有yǒu先xiān跑pǎo的de，撞zhuàng入rù陰yīn司sī門mén裡lǐ，報bào上shàng森sēn羅luó寶bǎo殿diàn道dào：「大dà王wáng，背bèi陰yīn山shān上shàng有yǒu兩liǎng個gè齊qí天tiān大dà聖shèng打dǎ將jiāng來lái也yě。」有yǒu先xiān跑pǎo的de，撞zhuàng入rù阴yīn司sī门mén里lǐ，报bào上shàng森sēn罗luó宝bǎo殿diàn道dào：「大dà王wáng，背bèi阴yīn山shān上shàng有yǒu两liǎng个gè齐qí天tiān大dà圣shèng打dǎ将jiāng来lái也yě。」

Some of the swifter runners dashed in at the gate of the shades and reported up to the Hall of Judgement: "Great King, there are two Great Sages Equal to Heaven come fighting hither on the Shadowy Mountain."

森羅寶殿, the Hall of Judgement, is the seat of the Ten Kings. 打將來 uses the same little 將 of motion this way, jiāng, that announced the pair at Potalaka and at the gate of Heaven.

總評 Commentary

The chapter's fifth court is reached, and it is the first one below rather than above. The staging changes to match: no memorials from Celestial Masters, just ghosts bolting for the gate. 戰戰兢兢，藏藏躲躲 gives four doubled syllables of pure panic, a register nothing in the Heaven sequence came near.

The report that reaches the Hall of Judgement is the same one that reached the Tide-Sound Cave and the South Heaven Gate, and it makes the same mistake of treating a count as a fact: 有兩個齊天大聖, there are two Great Sages Equal to Heaven. Every institution in the cosmos has now been told this, and not one of them has managed to bring the number down.
