The Elephant Demon

Journey to the West, Chapter 94, The Elephant Demon

《西游记》第九十四回 象精

The lion demon rubbed his aching mouth. Let's leave the Tang Monk alone. Wukong is dangerous. The raptor nodded. The elephant demon waved his hand. I'm not afraid of that silly monkey. I have a perfect plan to defeat him and capture the Tang Monk.

狮子精揉了揉自己发疼的嘴巴。 咱们别打唐僧的主意了。 悟空可不好惹。 大鹏精点了点头。 象精摆了摆手。 我可不怕那只傻猴子。 我有个完美的计划，能打败他，把唐僧抓过来。

The lion shook his head. The last time you had a plan, I wound up with a broken tooth. The elephant snorted. Just leave everything to me. Wukong returned to his companions. He heard Bajie and Wuxing arguing. We can't go home, shouted Wuxing. We're on an important journey.

狮子精摇了摇头。 上次你说有计划，结果我牙都被打断了一颗。 象精哼了一声。 这次全包在我身上就行。 悟空回到了同伴们身边。 他听见八戒和悟净在吵架。 “我们不能回家，”悟净大喊道。 “我们还有重要的取经任务要完成呢。”

But Wukong got eaten by the lion demon said Bajie. Without Wukong we'll never get to the western paradise. Here I am said the monkey. Everyone spun around. You're alive cried the Tang monk. Yes I am said Wukong. I beat up that lion's insides and broke one of his teeth. The demons are scared of me now. They promised to let us cross their mountain safely.

“可是悟空被狮子精吃掉了啊，”八戒说道。 没有悟空，我们肯定到不了西天的。 “我在这儿呢，”猴子开口说道，所有人都猛地转过身来。 “你还活着！”唐僧惊喜地大叫。 “我当然活着，”悟空回答道。 我把狮子精的肚子揍了个遍，还打断了他一颗牙。 现在那些妖怪都怕我怕得要命。 他们已经答应了，会让我们安安全全过山的。

That's wonderful! said the Tang monk. Wu Xing helped the monk climb onto the horse. The other travelers started walking. They hadn't gone far when they saw a large figure ahead blocking the road. That's the elephant demon! said Wukong with a frown. What's he doing here?

“那可太好了！”唐僧说道。 悟净扶着唐僧爬上了马。 其他一行人也跟着动身往前走。 他们没走多远，就看见前面有个高大的身影挡住了去路。 “那是象精！”悟空皱着眉头说道。 他在这儿干什么？

We want the Tang monk! shouted the elephant. The Tang monk fainted. Wukong turned to Bajie. I've been dealing with these demons all day. It's your turn to fight them. Bajie sighed. Okay! Waving his rake, the pig charged toward the elephant. You'll never harm my master!

“把唐僧交出来！”象精大吼道。唐僧吓得直接晕了过去。悟空 转过头对八戒说：“我跟这些妖怪周旋了一整天，现在该轮到你 去对付他们了。”八戒叹了口气：“好吧！”他举起九齿钉耙，朝 象精冲了过去：“你休想伤害我师父！”
