《西游记》第五十七章 猜谜游戏

Don't make any rain yet, Wukong repeated. But we must, said the old woman of the wind. Someone on earth just prayed for it. And the Jade Emperor heard the prayers, added the Dragon King of the Eastern Sea.

悟空又说了一遍："先别急着下雨。" 风婆婆说："可我们必须下啊。" 凡间刚刚有人求雨来着。 东海龙王补充道："而且玉皇大帝已经听到了祈愿。"

The person who recited the prayers is bad said Wukong. He's the tiger immortal and he plans to make the Tang monk a slave. The Dragon King looked concerned. That's terrible. We all want the Tang monk to reach the Western Paradise. But we must obey the Jade Emperor's orders said the woman.

悟空说："求雨的那个是坏人。" 他是虎力大仙，想把唐僧抓去当奴隶。 龙王看起来很担心。 那可太糟了，我们都盼着唐僧能到西天呢。 风婆婆说："可我们得服从玉皇大帝的命令啊。"

Just wait a moment said the monkey I'll go back down to the ground now when I raise my iron bar you can make it rain the woman and the Dragon King agreed to wait a moment Wukong returned to his body the sky cleared and the tiger immortal shook with anger why didn't my spell work he cried

悟空说："稍等一会儿，我现在就回地面去，等我 举起金箍棒的时候你们再下雨。"风婆婆和龙王同意 等一会儿。悟空回到了自己的肉身里，天空 放晴了，虎力大仙气得浑身发抖，我的法术怎么失灵了，他 喊道

Bajie laughed at him. Hehehehe, some rain. You couldn't even summon one drop. I'll try again! said the tiger immortal. No you won't! said Wukong. You had a chance to summon rain and you obviously can't. Now it's my turn. The monkey raised his iron bar into the air. Instantly clouds moved back in and thunder boomed. Rain began to pour down. The crowd cheered.

八戒嘲笑他。 嘿嘿嘿，什么求雨啊，你半滴雨都求不来。 虎力大仙说："我再试一次！" 悟空说："你别想试了！" 给过你求雨的机会了，你明显就不行。 现在轮到我了。 悟空把金箍棒举到了空中。 霎时间乌云聚拢，雷声轰鸣。 大雨哗啦啦下了起来。 人群都欢呼起来。

The Tang Monk sighed. Wonderful! Now all the Buddhist monks will be free. And we can continue our journey. The Tigre Immortal stomped over to Wukong. I want another contest! Wukong laughed. Why would you want another contest? You'll only lose again. The Tigre Immortal ignored the monkey's question. I challenge the Tang Monk to a guessing game.

唐僧舒了口气。 太棒了！现在所有的和尚都能自由了。 我们也可以继续赶路了。 虎力大仙气冲冲地走到悟空跟前。 我要再比一场！ 悟空笑了。 你为什么还想比啊？ 你只会再输一次的。 虎力大仙根本不理会悟空的问题。 我要挑战唐僧，跟他比猜谜。
