The Black Bear Spirit

Journey to the West, Chapter 20, The Black Bear Spirit.

《西游记》第二十回 黑熊精

Wukong glared at the two scared priests. The robe is gone? He cried. Where did it go? We don't know, said one priest. We tried to find it, added the other. The robe was in a room that didn't get burned at all. But it's not there anymore. His iron bar instantly appeared from inside his ear. Grow! Commanded Wukong. The monkey swung it toward the two priests.

悟空怒视着两个吓坏了的僧人 袈裟不见了？ 他大喊道 它去哪了？ “我们不知道。”一个僧人说 “我们已经试着找过了。”另一个僧人补充道 袈裟放在一间完全没被火烧到的房间里 可现在它不在那儿了 他的金箍棒立刻从耳朵里变了出来 “变大！” 悟空命令道 猴子抡起金箍棒就朝两个僧人打去

But before the bar hit them, it dropped from the monkey's hands. Wukong fell to the ground, crying in pain. It hurts! It hurts! He cried. The Tang monk was quietly reciting the tight headband spell. Wukong rolled around, kicking and screaming. The two priests jumped up and backed away.

可金箍棒还没打到两人，就从猴子手里掉了下来 悟空摔到地上，疼得大叫 “疼！好疼啊！” 他喊道 唐僧正默默念着紧箍咒 悟空疼得滚来滚去，又踢又叫 两个僧人连忙跳起来往后退

Stop reciting the spell! Wukong yelled at the Tang monk. I'm begging you, I won't hurt the priests! The Tang monk stopped and Wukong stood up. The monkey took a deep breath and put the iron bar back in his ear. The Tang monk looked at the two priests. You really don't know where the robe is? No, said one priest. The head priest ran away last night. He didn't have it with him.

“别念咒了！” 悟空冲着唐僧大喊 “我求你了，我不会伤害这些僧人的！” 唐僧停了下来，悟空也站起了身 猴子深吸一口气，把金箍棒收回到耳朵里 唐僧看向那两个僧人 “你们真的不知道袈裟在哪吗？” “不知道。”一个僧人回答 “住持昨晚就跑了” 他没把袈裟带在身上

Wukong tapped his chin. A monster or demon might have stolen it. Are there any monsters or demons living near here? Some people believe there's a monster in the mountains nearby, said the other priest. They say it's a black bear spirit. I'll go see if the bear took the robe, said Wukong. I'll be back soon.

悟空摸了摸下巴 说不定是哪个妖怪把它偷走了 “这附近有没有住着什么妖怪啊？” “有人说附近的山里住着个妖怪。”另一个僧人说 大家都说那是个黑熊精 “我去看看是不是那黑熊偷了袈裟。”悟空说 我很快就回来

Wukong leaped into the air and landed up in the mountains. He walked for a bit and then heard voices. Peeking over a boulder, he saw a group of spirits talking. One was a large black bear. The bear laughed. The monastery was on fire last night. I went down to check it out and found a wonderful Buddhist robe. I think it's a Buddhist treasure. Anyway, I stole it. So tonight, I'm throwing a feast to celebrate.

悟空纵身一跃飞到空中，落到了那座山里 他走了一小段路，就听见有人说话的声音 他躲在一块大石头后面偷看，看见一群妖怪正在聊天 其中一个是只高大的黑熊 黑熊笑了起来 “昨天晚上寺院着火了” 我下去查看情况，发现了一件特别好看的袈裟 我看这可是件佛家珍宝 不管怎么说，我把它偷到手啦 所以今晚我要大摆宴席庆祝一下
