11第一回猴王学艺Episode1MonkeyKingLearnsMagic很久很久之前有座山，叫花果山1，山上有一块巨石。一日，巨石轰然爆炸，从里面跳出一只猴子。这只猴子样貌与其他猴子并无两样，只是眼放金光。石猴一生下来就在山中跑来跳去，与山中鸟兽玩耍。Longlongago,therewasamountainnamedHuaGuoShan2/MountainofFruitandFlowers.Onthemountaintherewasalargerock.Onefineday,therockexplodedandamonkeyjumpedout.Helookednodifferentthananyothermonkeyexcepthisblazingeyes.Therockmonkeystartedjumpingaroundandplayingwiththebirdsandbeastsimmediatelyafterhewasborn.一个夏天，石猴正和其他猴子在一个瀑布下面玩耍，忽听一只老猴子开口说道：“谁若能跳进水里找到水的源头，咱们就拥他为王。”Onesummerday,whentherockmonkeywashavingfunwithothermonkeysunderawaterfallaseniormonkeyannounced:“Whoevercandiveintothewaterandfinditssource,we’lllethimbeourking.”众猴子一致同意，却无人敢跳。石猴见此情形就大声说到：“我去！”说着便跳进了瀑布里。没想到的是，瀑布后面无水，却有一块石碑，上刻“水帘洞”。此外，还有一幢石屋，屋内家具皆为石头所做，应有尽有。Everyoneagreedunanimouslybutnobodydaredjump.Seeingthis,therockmonkeyshouted:“Iwill.”Withthesewords,heleapedtowardsthewaterfall.Surprisingly,behindthewaterfallhefoundnowaterbutastonetabletwithcarvedChinesecharactersliterallysaying“WaterCurtainCave”.Inaddition,therewasastonehouseequippedwithallkindsofstonefurniture.石猴出去把其他猴子带了进来。猴子们欢呼雀跃并按照约定尊他为王。从此，猴王就带着猴子们在水帘洞过了几百年幸福的生活。Hewentbackandbroughtinothermonkeys.Theycheeredandaccordingtotheagreementmadehimtheirking.Thereafter,thekingandhisfollowerslivedhappilyinthecaveforhundredsofyears.1我国不同省区均有以花果山命名的风景旅游区景点。2本书中人名，地名等专有名词主要采用音译加解释和音译意译相结合的方法。22一日，在一个宴席上猴王感伤地说：“现在我虽每日快活，可是将来衰老，还是不免要被阎王爷抓去。”“是呀，”一只猴子同情地说，“你若想逃过阎王这一关，就得去寻仙拜师学会长生不老术。”猴王觉得此计甚好就说，“我这便去寻仙拜师。”Oneday,atabanquet,thekingsaidwithsadness：“Thoughhappynow,whenIgetoldIwillinevitablybetakenawaybyYanWangYe--DeathinChinesemythology.”“Indeed”，saidamonkeysympathetically，“ifyouwanttoescapedeathyoumustlearnfromagodsomemagicwhichcanmakeyouimmortal.”Thekingthoughtitwasagoodideaandjoyfullydeclared,“Iwillnowgotolookforagodtobemyteacher.”他令人做了木筏和船篙便出发了。很快，他靠岸登陆，看见几个渔民，抓住其中一人并抢了他的衣服。猴王扮成人的模样流浪了八九年,期间学会了人的语言和行为。一日，当他正爬山时听到有人唱歌，歌者听起来逍遥自在似神仙。Hehadaraftandbarge-polebuiltbythemonkeysandsetout.Quitesoon,helandedandsawseveralfishermensohestoppedoneofthemandseizedhisclothes.Themonkeykingdressedupasahumanbeingandtraveledforaboutnineyearswhenhelearnedtotalkandactlikeaman.Oneday,whenhewasclimbingamountainheheardamansingingwhosoundedsecureandcarefreeasifhewereagod.他循歌声找到了歌者，恭恭敬敬地问：“请问你是神仙吗？”那人忙回答：“我不是神仙，不过这首歌是一位神仙教给我的。”Byfollowingthesoundofthesonghefoundthesingerandaskedrespectfully:“Excuseme,areyouagod?”“No,Iamnotbutagodtaughtmethissong”,answeredthemanimmediately.猴王打听了神仙的住处就继续前行，直至来到一岩洞前。只见洞门紧闭，洞口上方刻着“三星洞”三个大字。他不敢敲门，只得耐心等待。Heaskedaboutthegod’sresidenceandwalkedonuntilhearrivedatacavewhosegatewasclosed.Overthegatewerethreebigcharacters--SanXingDongliterallymeaningThreeStarCave.Hedarednotknocksohewaitedpatiently.33片刻之后，一位仙童打开洞门走出来，对猴王说：“师父说有人来访，是你吗？”猴王随仙童进洞，见一位白发白须老人端坐在高台之上，两旁站立着数十位弟子。猴王急忙下跪，连磕响头。Amomentlater,aboyopenedthedoor,cameoutandasked:“Mastersaidwehaveavisitor.Isthatyou?”Followingtheboyintothecave,MonkeyKingsawthemasterserene,white-haired,white-beardedandseatedonahighdais.Onhissideswerestandingtensofdisciples.MonkeyKinghurriedlykneltdownandkowtowedcontinually.仙人问：“你来自何方？”“我来自花果山”猴王答道。“报上名来。”“我无父无母，亦无姓名。”“莫非你是树上长出来的？”“是石头里蹦出来的！”仙人笑到：“唤你孙悟空如何？”猴王满心欢喜地答应。从此，悟空开始努力修行，并念念不忘长生不老之术。Masterasked:“Whereareyoufrom?”“IcomefromHuaGuoShan”answeredthemonkey.“Whatisyourname?”“Ihavenoparentsandnoname.”“Ifyouhavenoparents,wereyougrownonatree?”“Fromarock！”Masterlaughedandsaid:“HowaboutIcallyouSunWukong?”MonkeyKingaccepteditwithecstasy.Fromthenon,Sunworkedreallyhardwhilethinkingabouttheimmortalmagic.祖师明白他的心意，亦知悟空聪慧过人。一日，祖师在众人面前假装生气在悟空头上连敲三下，然后背着手离开，并关上房门。Masterknewhismindandalsohisextraordinaryintelligence.Oneday,MasterfeignedangerandknockedonSun’sheadthreetimes.Thenheputhishandsbehindtheback,leftandclosedthedoor.众徒弟皆以为师傅发怒不敢言语。唯有悟空明白：连敲三下是指三更，把门关上暗指叫他从后门进去。于是，当晚他悄悄从半掩的后门进去，跪在祖师床前等他醒来。WhileothersthoughtMasterwasangrySunknewthiswastellinghimtoseeMasteratthreeo’clockbygoingthroughthebackdoor.SothatnighthewentintoMaster’sroomsecretlythroughtheunlockedbackdoor,kneltdownathisbedandwaitedforhimtowakeup.44不久，祖师醒来，问道：“你在此作甚？”悟空答：“白日里师父出的哑谜，我猜想是叫我三更时分到您这儿来，因此便来了。请师父授我不老法术吧！”祖师大悦，心想悟空果真聪明。于是开始教他长生不老的法术。悟空大喜，苦练三年，从未间断。Soon，Masterwokeupandasked:“Whatareyoudoinghere?”Wukonganswered:“Iunderstoodyourpuzzletodayasaskingmetocomeatthreeo’clockthroughthebackdoorsoIcame.Pleaseteachmetobecomeimmortal!”MasterwasdelightedthatWukongwascleverenoughtocatchhiscuesohedecidedtoteachhimimmortalmagic.Wukongwasoverjoyedandpracticedhardforthreeyearscontinuously.一日，祖师对他讲：“时至今日你已学有小成，尚需习得如何躲过命中三劫。”“哪三劫？”“你虽已习得长生不老之术，但五百年后会遭天雷打击，若无法躲避将会丧命。”Oneday,Mastertoldhim:“Sofar,youhavedoneprettywellbutstillneedtolearnhowtoavoidthreedoomeddisasters.”“Whatarethey?”“Thoughyouhavemasteredtheimmortalmagic,youwillbestruckbyaheavenlylightningin500yearsandifyoucan’tavoidityouwillbekilled.”悟空听罢惊吓不已。祖师又道：“再过五百年，你会遭遇天火，被烧成灰烬。再过五百年你会遭遇神风，将你吹得骨肉四散。”悟空已是胆颤心惊，忙跪地哀求。“请师父授我避难之法，此恩情，弟子永世难忘。”祖师向来宠他，遂附耳传授口诀。悟空苦练口诀，不日便学成了七十二般变化，还能够腾云驾雾，一个筋斗十万八千里。Atthishewasscared.Mastercontinued:“Inanotherfivehundredyearsheavenlyfirewillburnyouintoashesandinanotherfivehundredyearsaheavenlygalewilltearapar
