三藏道:「徒弟,那裡必定是座庵觀寺院,就此借宿了,明日早行。」
三藏道:「徒弟,那里必定是座庵观寺院,就此借宿了,明日早行。」
Tripitaka said, "Disciples, that over there must surely be a hermitage or a temple. Let us borrow a night's lodging here and set out early tomorrow."
This 那裡 is the plain pointing one, with 那 as nà — over there. And 觀 is guàn again, the Daoist house.
行者道:「師父說得是,各各走動些。」
行者道:「师父说得是,各各走动些。」
Pilgrim said, "What the master says is right. Let us all step out a little."
The 得 in 說得是 is the unstressed de. Pilgrim agreeing twice in a row is unusual enough to be worth marking.

It is worth noticing that Tripitaka is guessing from a silhouette at dusk. He sees towers and halls and reads them as a religious house, which is the correct reading and also the most comforting one available.
