The master and his disciples arrive at the prefecture of Fengxian, inside the border of India. This place is afflicted with heavy drought. The Marquis of the prefecture issues a notice with a reward to recruit wise men to pray for rain. Monkey asks the Dragon King to give them rain, but without result, because the Jade Emperor has issued an imperial edict forbidding rain at this place. Monkey ascends to the Heavenly Palace several times to plead their case. He then impels the ordinary people of Fengxian prefecture to change their ugly habits, and establish new customs. As a result, the rain starts pouring down in the whole prefecture.
