《西游记》第八十三章：瓜田

Are you sure you can help? Wukong asked the Buddha Maitreya. Yellow Brows is powerful. He captured everyone with a magic cloth. He trapped me in a pair of symbols. I can defeat Yellow Brows, said Maitreya. He used to be my student. The cloth and symbols are precious Buddhist treasures that he stole from me.

你确定能帮上忙吗？ 悟空问弥勒佛。 黄眉怪很厉害，他用法宝布把大家都抓走了。 他用一对符咒把我困住了。 “我能打败黄眉怪。”弥勒佛说。 他以前是我的弟子。 那块布和符咒都是他从我这里偷走的佛门宝贝。

Wukong gulped. Sorry, but I, um, destroyed the symbols. Maitreya smiled. Don't worry about that. We must capture Yellow Browse. I'll tell you my plan. Wukong stormed up to the monastery door again. Yellow Browse! He shouted. Return, my friends, or I'll smash your entire mountain!

悟空倒吸一口凉气。 抱歉，可我、呃，把符咒弄坏了。 弥勒佛笑了。 不用担心这个。 我们得抓住黄眉怪。 我把我的计划告诉你。 悟空又怒气冲冲地冲到寺院门口。 黄眉怪！ 他大喊道。 把我的朋友们放回来，不然我就掀翻你整座山！

The door flew open and Yellow Browse stepped out. How dare you threaten me! Do you know how powerful I am? You're not powerful, said the monkey. You just think you are because you have that cloth. I bet you're too scared to fight me without it.

门猛地被推开，黄眉怪走了出来。 你竟敢威胁我！ 你知道我有多厉害吗？ “你才不厉害呢。”猴子说。 你不过是有那块布，才自以为厉害。 我赌你不敢不用那块布和我打架。

I'm not scared of you said the demon he went back inside and came back a moment later He was holding a heavy wooden club Wukong pulled out his iron bar as the demon rushed toward him Wham their weapons smashed together again and again as he fought the demon Wukong took small steps backward Slowly he moved the fight away from the monastery

“我才不怕你！”妖怪说完就回了屋里，没过一会儿又出来了。 他拿着一根沉甸甸的木棒。 妖怪朝悟空冲过来的时候，悟空掏出了金箍棒。 哐当！他们的武器撞了一次又一次，和妖怪对打的时候，悟空慢慢往后退小步。 他一点点把战场引离了寺院。

Soon they were fighting in the valley at the bottom of the mountain. Wukong took another swing at Yellow Browse and then pretended to be scared. You are too powerful, cried the monkey. I can't fight you anymore. He turned and ran away. Hey! Yelled Yellow Browse. Get back here, coward! The demon ran after Wukong.

很快他们就打到了山脚下的山谷里。 悟空又朝黄眉怪挥了一棒，然后假装害怕的样子。 “你太厉害了！”猴子大喊。 我打不过你，不打了！ 他转身就跑。 喂！ 黄眉怪大喊。 胆小鬼，给我回来！ 妖怪跟在悟空后面追。
