What's the scene of watching lanterns at a midnight snack in The Journey to the West?

Today is the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, also known as "Shangyuan Festival", "Yuanxi Festival" or "Lantern Festival". It is the first important festival after the Spring Festival and one of the traditional festive festivals in China. Up to now, besides the customs of walking on stilts, dancing lions and eating dumplings, the most important activity is watching lanterns at midnight. In The Journey to the West, one of the Four Great Classical Novels, there is also a scene describing the lantern watching at midnight snack. Listen to the author's explanation:

It is said that the four Tang Priests and apprentices went all the way to the Buddhist temple in the western heaven to worship Buddha and seek scriptures, and passed through the "Ciyun Temple" in the foreign county of Tianzhu (namely Jinping House). At that time, it was the thirteenth day of the first month, near the Lantern Festival, and they were warmly detained by the monks in Baosha monastery. Tang Priest had no choice but to stay. According to The Journey to the West's 91st "Confessions of Tang Priest in Xuan Ying Cave Watching Lantern in Jinping Mansion", Tang Priest wanted to go, but he was detained by the monks and lent to the Lord: "Teacher, stay here for a day or two. After the Lantern Festival, you might as well play." ? Today is the thirteenth day of the first month, and we will try the lights at night. On the fifteenth day of the next day. Until the 18th, just Xie Deng. It's a good thing for people here. The prefect of this house loves the people, and all the places are full of lights, and they play flute all night. There is also a golden lantern bridge, which was handed down from ancient times and has been rich so far. I can afford to stay in the barren hills for a few days. "Tang's monk helpless, hence all stay.

The next day, on the 14th day of the first month, the Tang Priest and his disciples went to the backyard of Ciyun Temple to enjoy the garden scenery. After a day of appreciation, the disciples watched the lights in the temple at night, and all went to the temple to watch the lights and guess puzzles. Later, the Tang Priest and his disciples went to the streets of Dongguan with other monks to play and watch the lights, and didn't go back to bed until the second watch.

The next day, the Tang Priest said to all the monks, "I originally wanted to sweep the tower, so I asked the master of the courtyard to open the gate of the tower today, and let my disciples fulfill this wish." When the Tang Priest finished sweeping the tower, it was already dark, and it was a good time to enjoy the lanterns. So the monks invited Tang Priest to the city to enjoy the lanterns, and Tang Priest readily agreed, and his disciples went with him.

Speaking of which, what is the scene of Tang Priest and his disciples watching lanterns at midnight snack? This is described in great detail in The Journey to the West's 91st "The Confession of Tang Priest in Xuan Ying Cave Watching Lantern in Jinping House": this night is the 15th Lantern Festival. The monks said, "Teacher, we only watched the lanterns in the barren hills and compartments the night before, but tonight is the festival. How about going into town to see the golden lanterns?" Tang Priest gladly followed it, and three of his companions and many monks from our temple went to town to see the lights. Exactly:

May 3rd Night Festival, spring scenery in Shangyuan and. Lantern hanging in the downtown area, singing peace songs together. I saw the lights on in the six streets and three cities, and a mirror rose in the air. That month was like Feng Yi pushing a rotten silver plate, and this lamp was like a fairy weaving a carpet. The lamp reflects the moon, doubling its brilliance; The moonlight shines brightly. You can't see the iron lock star bridge, and you can't see the lights and flowers. Snowflake lamp, plum blossom lamp, spring ice cut into pieces; Embroidered screen lights, painted screen lights, colorful savings. Walnut lamp, lotus lamp, lamp tower hung high; Green lion lamp, white elephant lamp, high lamp stand. Shrimp lights and turtle lights are high in front of the shed; Sheep lamp, rabbit lamp, spirit under the eaves. Eagle lamp and phoenix lamp are connected together; Tiger lamp and horse lamp go together. Crane lamp, white deer lamp, birthday boy riding; Goldfish lamp, whale lamp, Li Bai Gao Cheng. Aoshan lantern, fairy party; The lantern runs, and the military commanders meet. Thousands of lights and towers, a world of clouds and smoke for more than ten miles. That wall box, Suo Langlang jade? Fly in; This wall box, the hub is full of fragrant cars. Look at the red makeup upstairs, leaning against the bar, across the curtain, shoulder to shoulder, holding hands, both beautiful women are greedy; Green water bridge, noisy, cluster, drunk, mirth, to the tourists. The whole city is noisy with flutes and drums, and there are constant songs all night.

there are poems to prove it. Poetry says:

Colorful lotus flowers are sung in the fairyland, and there are crowds of people in Taiping.

the light is bright and the moon is bright, and the midnight snack is full, and the rain has been adjusted with the wind for many years.

at this time, it was Jin Wu who couldn't help it. It was so chaotic and crowded. There are dancers, stilts, ghosts, and elephants, and there are endless collections in the east and clusters in the west.

Later, the Tang Priest and his disciples went to the Golden Lantern Bridge to admire the lanterns. They were not ordinary lanterns, but three golden lanterns filled with crisp sesame oil for the Buddha. The monks said, "Every midnight snack, the Buddha will come here to watch the lights and persuade the Tang Priest to leave." The Tang Priest is a sincere man who worships the Buddha. I heard that the Buddha came here to see the lights, so I didn't have to worship, so I waited here to worship the Buddha. As a result, the Buddha worshipped by Tang Priest was a monster, and I was taken away by him. Finally, with the Monkey King's efforts, he defeated the monster, rescued the master, and embarked on a long journey to the west.
