The six brothers were Kang, Zhang, Yao, Li, Guo and Zhi; and each of them came out from the camp and called, "Brother Sun Wukong! Our eldest brother invites you."
哥哥 is set by the registered kinship reading, with a neutral second syllable. Only the six surnames are given here; the full names appear in the sixth chapter, where these same brothers helped take Pilgrim, and 直 is a surname there — 直健 — which is why it reads zhí and not as an adverb. No graph in this segment stands in any guard roster.
Pilgrim came forward, made his salutations to them all, and went up the mountain in their company.
No graph in this segment stands in any guard roster. 作禮 is to perform the bow proper to the occasion, and 對眾 makes it a bow to the whole company rather than to any one of them — the plan of arriving second is being executed exactly.
His Lordship Erlang came out to meet him; they took each other by the hand and supported one another, and greeted each other as equals; and he said, "Great Sage, you have got clear of a great calamity, taken the precepts of the monastic gate, and when the day comes and the merit is complete you will mount high upon the lotus throne. My congratulations — my congratulations."
The two 相 here are both xiāng and both supplied by position, but pypinyin gets only the second right: at 相攙 it gives the xiàng of a countenance. 難 at 大難 is nàn, calamity. 康熙 隹部十一畫 splits the graph by tone: 那干切, 音䕿 = nán, which 玉篇 glosses 不易之稱也, the name for what is not easy; then 又 奴案切, 音㬮 = nàn, glossed by 廣韻 患也 and cited from 禮·曲禮 臨難毋苟免. 蓮座 is the lotus throne of a buddha.
The meeting is staged as an encounter between equals, and every physical detail says so. Erlang comes out to meet him rather than receiving him; they take hands; they support each other; and 一同相見 — they greet each other together — puts neither of them first. All of Pilgrim's anxiety about precedence is dissolved by the other party in one sentence.
What Erlang then says is a congratulation on a career. Out of the calamity, into the precepts, and in time up onto the lotus throne — the whole pilgrimage compressed into four four-graph phrases, with the ending treated as already settled. It is generous, and it is also the only thing anyone says in this chapter about where the journey is going.
The six brothers are given by surname only. Their full names are in the sixth chapter, where they helped run Pilgrim down; the text assumes the reader has them, and gives six syllables where six men would take a line.
