行者道:「這廝神通不小,又變作這等身軀,卻怎奈何?」太子笑道:「大聖勿疑,你看我擒他。」行者道:「这厮神通不小,又变作这等身躯,却怎奈何?」太子笑道:「大圣勿疑,你看我擒他。」

行者道:「這廝神通不小,又變作這等身軀,卻怎奈何?」
行者道:「这厮神通不小,又变作这等身躯,却怎奈何?」
Pilgrim said: "This creature's arts are not small, and now he has taken a body of this size. What is to be done about it?"
The second time the Great Sage has asked what is to be done in this chapter, the other being 如之奈何 at the start of the siege. He arrived, looked at the ox, and asked somebody else.
太子笑道:「大聖勿疑,你看我擒他。」
太子笑道:「大圣勿疑,你看我擒他。」
The prince laughed: "Great Sage, have no doubt. Watch me take him."
The confidence is earned: Nezha will do in one line what five passages of fighting could not. 看 is kàn.
卻怎奈何 is the second time in this chapter that the Great Sage has asked what is to be done, and both times he has asked somebody else. He arrives at the fight, looks at the size of the ox, and puts the question.
你看我擒他 — watch me take him — is answered within eight characters in the next passage, and the confidence is not misplaced. What five passages of combat, three battle poems and a transformation chase could not accomplish is done by a prince who laughs first.
