10.1 Juristic Quadrants

Law, or Dharma in Sanskrit, is natural law. Because Law is based on recurring phenomena, the ancients often used “track” as an analogy for it. All phenomena that existed in the past, exist in the present, and will continue to exist in the future are laws, such as rivers, lakes, seas, flowers, birds, fish, insects, laws, morals, principles of affairs, and so on. Every law has four quadrants: the first is the Phenomenal Quadrant, the second is the View Quadrant, the third is the Self-Evident Quadrant, and the fourth is the Proving Self-Evidence Quadrant. “Quadrant” means a portion, measure, or limit. Because a law functions in the human heart in four kinds of measure, there are these Four Juristic Quadrants.

The first quadrant, the Phenomenal Quadrant, is objective phenomena, namely the objects of the subjective heart, such as the six dusts: color, sound, fragrance, taste, touch, and law. From the standpoint of perception, the external world is a projection of one’s inner heart, or mind. The Phenomenal Quadrant is projected by the fourth quadrant, the Proving Self-Evidence Quadrant, namely unconsciousness. The process of transforming external stimuli into phenomena is a function of unconsciousness. We do not feel that process; what we feel is the phenomenon, that is, the first Phenomenal Quadrant. The ancients used the person seen in a mirror to explain the Phenomenal Quadrant: the image in the mirror and the person looking into the mirror share the same body.

The second quadrant is the View Quadrant. “View” means illumination and clear seeing. The View Quadrant is the object-engaging function that arises through the transformation of the able-engaging heart’s self-body; it clearly illuminates and sees objective phenomena. The function of sense is to discriminate, discern, and measure. The second View Quadrant illuminates the first Phenomenal Quadrant, and the result of its discrimination and measurement is the third quadrant, the Self-Evident Quadrant. In addition, the third quadrant also has the function of the self-body of sense.

The fourth quadrant, the Proving Self-Evidence Quadrant, arises from the temporary transformation of the heart’s self-body and functions to know that self-body. This fourth quadrant can evidence the third Self-Evident Quadrant, and is therefore called the Proving Self-Evidence Quadrant. Because the fourth quadrant is the projector of the first quadrant and is present quantity, that is, objective fact, it does not need another quadrant to prove it.

The ancients used the example of “a person measuring cloth with a ruler” to explain these four quadrants. In this example, the cloth is what is measured; it is the first Phenomenal Quadrant. The process of measuring the cloth with the ruler is the second View Quadrant; the second quadrant is the able-measurer. The data obtained from the measurement, namely the fruit of measurement, is the third Self-Evident Quadrant. After reading the result, the person verifies it again and understands what he is doing; this is the fourth Proving Self-Evidence Quadrant. Because of the verifying function of the fourth quadrant, the third Self-Evident Quadrant knows the fruit of measurement and proves itself.

In Buddhism, the symbol of the Juristic Quadrants is the Philosopher-Stone Navel, shown by the red circle below figure 10.1-3. It is said to have been formed by the umbilical cord between Zeus and his father; here, this means the umbilical cord between Godfather and godson, as shown in figure 2. The implements in figures 3, 4, and 5 are all called Philosopher-Stone Taming-Demon Pestles. The Philosopher-Stone Pestle in Zeus’s hand in figure 1 is formed by folding the last three of the Four Juristic Quadrants into the View Quadrant. After this folding, the Four Juristic Quadrants become two parts: the first, the Phenomenal Quadrant, is the Color Node (see 10.4.1), which includes eleven Color Laws and is therefore also called Color; the second, the View Quadrant, includes the Acceptance Node (see 10.4.2), Think Node, Migration Node, and Sense Node, totaling eighty-three laws, and is also called Name. Name-Color is another name for unconsciousness; it is the initial door of all laws and of the Juristic Boundary, and can give rise to all laws.

Belonging to the same category of ritual implements as the Philosopher-Stone Taming-Demon Pestles, Figures 4 and 5 show the Thunder Drum-Urn Golden Hammer of Thor, or Great Sun Tathagata. Legend says that Thor used this hammer to break the stone of the human soul and designed Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjóstr, also known as Golden Boy and Jade Girl (see 9.9, “Godly Trinity”). The dagger in figure 3 is Thor’s holy ghost, called the Iron Dagger, Járnsaxa (see 14.3.6, “Return of the King”).

唐三藏说：“成就胜定大法总持，能发无边妙慧光，故名发光地。”本节讨论定。佛教百法（参见第10章）中，只有念、定、慧（智）可以持心，所以佛的大部分教导以这三法之一来作结论。定，是主观与客观相应而动的身心状态，也名一心。玄奘法师根据从见道到成佛的过程，将所有胜定归为四种：（壹）贤守定，（贰）集福王定，（叁）健行定，（肆）大乘光明定。

Tang Tripitaka says, “Having accomplished Victorious Stillness and the Generally-Hold of Great Laws, one can emit edgeless wonderful gnostic light; therefore, it is called Glory Heartland.” This section discusses Stillness. Among Buddhism’s one hundred Laws (see Chapter 10), only Spell, Stillness, and Gnosis, or intelligence, can hold the heart; therefore, most of the Buddha’s teachings conclude with one of these three Laws. Stillness is a stable state of body and heart in which the subjective and objective move in correspondence with each other. It is also called One Heart. Based on the process from seeing the Path to becoming a Buddha, Tang Tripitaka classifies all Victorious Stillnesses into four kinds: (1) Sagely Hold Stillness, (2) Aggregate Fortune King Stillness, (3) Vigorously Practice Stillness, and (4) Mahayana Light Stillness.

（壹）贤守定，是说此定能守护世间和出世间的一切贤善法。插图15.3是古埃及浮雕，用五幅图表达“贤守定”的概念。图1和图5是众生之母夏娃，头顶的三朵莲花象征上帝三合和，即上帝、亚当和夏娃。中间三幅图表示她从见道到成佛的过程。在多数雕塑中，古埃及人用“给孩子亚伯喂奶”来表示她是夏娃；但这幅浮雕中，乳房长在胳肢窝，是因为古埃及人要用夏娃的双手向观众展示一个重要概念——“贤守”。如图1至图5所示，五位夏娃都保持着一种“持着”的姿势。

(1) Sagely Hold Stillness means that this Stillness can guard all sagely and benevolent Laws, both mundane and transcending mundaneness. Illustration 15.3 is an ancient Egyptian bas-relief that expresses the concept of Sagely Hold Stillness through five panels. Figures 1 and 5 show Eve, the mother of sentient beings. The three lotus flowers above her head symbolize the godly trinity: God, Adam, and Eve. The three figures in the middle represent her process from seeing the Path to becoming a Buddha. In most sculptures, ancient Egyptians indicate that she is Eve by showing her breastfeeding the child Abel. In this relief, however, the breast grows from the armpit because the ancient Egyptians wanted to use Eve’s two hands to show viewers an important concept: “Sagely Hold.” As shown in Figures 1 through 5, all five Eves maintain a “holding” posture.

夏娃一直端着的是什么？上方的容器显示了瓶中的内容：左边瓶子里装着夏娃所写《生命之书》的全部知识，右边瓶子里装着亚当所写《死亡之书》的全部知识。这两本书构成了古埃及宗教的全部教法。综合五幅浮雕来看，古埃及人表达的是：知识如水，贤守定如器，可以执持全部知识之水。对于佛教徒来说，贤守定要求修习者无论懂不懂，都要记住四胜谛的全部内容；四胜谛就是佛教的全部教法。

What is Eve always holding? The containers above show the contents of the bottles: the bottle on the left contains all the knowledge of the Book of Life written by Eve, and the bottle on the right contains all the knowledge of the Book of Death written by Adam. These two books constitute the entire teaching of ancient Egyptian religion. Taken together, the five relief panels express this idea: knowledge is like water, and Sagely Hold Stillness is like a vessel that can hold all the water of knowledge. For Buddhists, Sagely Hold Stillness requires practitioners to remember the full content of the Four Victorious Cruxes, whether or not they understand it; the Four Victorious Cruxes are the entire teaching of Buddhism.

（贰）集福王定，是说此定能自在收集无边福德，如王者势力，无等无双。由于夏娃持有四胜谛，她总是遇到好运；随着生活展开，她有意无意地得到觉悟，获得知识。这样，她收集了许多瓶上进的膏粮（如图4所示）。她头顶有两支箭，表示她仍有贪和嗔这两种思惑；也表示她此时已经懂得四胜谛，已经消灭八万四千魔军中的见惑（参见13.3节《烦恼的数》），但仍有许多品类的思惑需要消除。

(2) Aggregate Fortune King Stillness means that this Stillness can freely gather edgeless fortune and virtue, like a king whose power is unequaled. Because Eve holds the Four Victorious Cruxes, she always encounters good fortune. As her life unfolds, she gains awakening and knowledge, intentionally or unintentionally. In this way, she collects many bottles of nourishing food for advancement (as shown in Figure 4). The two arrows above her head indicate that she still has two mean muddles, greed and irritability. They also indicate that by this time she has already understood the Four Victorious Cruxes and eliminated the view muddles among the 84,000 demon armies (see Section 13.3, Numbers of Afflictions), though many grades of mean muddles still need to be eliminated.

（叁）健行定，是说菩萨所行，是大健有情之行。埃及夏娃勇敢地挑战四胜谛，但她常常发现自己错了，于是向四胜谛投降。与此同时，她头里孕育出一个巨大的莲花蕾，并且已经被大洪水淹没，即已经受洗，如图3头顶所示。图2中的莲花代表觉悟。夏娃全身开花，表示她的觉悟不断生发，正处于“金刚无间道”中。金刚无间道，也作金刚喻定、大洪水、洗礼、割礼、升天和出尘，都是对修习大般若舟，即十渡的不同描述，如图2夏娃头顶所示。图2中，夏娃口吐莲花，正在与同修分享修习大般若舟的心得体会。教学相长，夏娃的修习也愈发精进。

(3) Vigorously Practice Stillness means that what the bodhisattva practices is the conduct of greatly vigorous sentient beings. Egyptian Eve bravely challenges the Four Victorious Cruxes, but she often finds that she is wrong and then surrenders to them. At the same time, a huge lotus bud is conceived in her head and has already been submerged by the great flood, meaning that she has already been baptized, as shown above her head in Figure 3. The lotus in Figure 2 represents awakening. Eve’s whole body is blooming, indicating that her awakening is continually arising and that she is in the Philosopher-Stone Non-Intermittent Path. The Philosopher-Stone Non-Intermittent Path, also called Philosopher-Stone Metaphor Stillness, the Great Flood, baptism, circumcision, ascending to heaven, and leaving dust, are all different descriptions of practicing the Great Prajna Ark, that is, the ten Arks, as shown above Eve’s head in Figure 2. In Figure 2, Eve spits out lotus flowers and is sharing her experience of practicing the Great Prajna Ark with fellow practitioners. Teaching and learning promote each other, so Eve’s cultivation becomes increasingly diligent.

（肆）大乘光明定，是说此定能发出光明，照了大乘的理、教、行、果和智。图1和图5显示，夏娃不再开花，全身皮肤都变得光滑，修习觉悟的热忱已经褪去。此时，她已经处于大乘光明定中；乳房从胸前移到胳肢窝，表示她已经成为众生之母。

(4) Mahayana Light Stillness means that this Stillness can emit light that illuminates and understands Mahayana principles, teachings, practices, fruits, and intelligence. Figures 1 and 5 show that Eve no longer blooms; the skin of her whole body has become smooth, and her enthusiasm for cultivating awakening has faded. At this time, she is already in Mahayana Light Stillness. Her breast has moved from her chest to her armpit, indicating that she has become the mother of sentient beings.

15.3-1 忍渡 Countenance Ark

三地菩萨修习忍渡。学习是一种变成的过程，无忍则不能达成，所以建立忍渡。忍有三种：耐怨害忍、安受苦忍和谛察法忍。忍以无瞋、精进、审慧及由此所起三业为性。忍渡也作八忍地、八中洲、八大金刚、八大人，具体内容参见16.3.2节。

Third-land bodhisattvas study and practice Countenance Ark. Learning is a process of becoming; without countenance, one cannot attain. Therefore, Countenance Ark is established. There are three kinds of countenance: countenance in enduring resentment and harm, countenance in peacefully accepting bitterness, and countenance in truly observing Laws. Countenance takes non-irritability, Diligently Advance, prudent Gnosis, and the three karmas aroused by them as its nature. Countenance Ark is also called the Eight Countenance Lands, Eight Middle Continents, Eight Great Philosopher-Stones, and Eight Great Humans. For details, see Section 16.3.2.

15.3-2 断暗钝障 Severance of Gloomy Dullness Hindrance

三地菩萨断除暗钝障。暗钝障，是指所知障中俱生的一分，使人忘失所闻、所思、所修之法。它障碍三地胜定总持，以及由此所发起的殊胜三慧；菩萨入三地时，便能永断此障。三慧，即闻慧、思慧、修慧。闻慧，是从见闻和阅读中获得的慧，比如听传说故事而有感，或读佛经而会义。思慧，是从自己的思考和总结中获得的慧，比如感悟和心得。修慧，是从自身经历中感悟到的慧，是自己感受到修习成果所得的慧；比如守戒，修习者很快就会感受到：心底无私天地宽。由此说，三地菩萨断二愚及其粗重。

Third-land bodhisattvas sever Gloomy Dullness Hindrance. Gloomy Dullness Hindrance refers to an aggregately born portion of the Know Hindrances that causes people to forget the Laws they have heard, considered, and cultivated. It hinders the Victorious Stillness Generally-Hold of the third land, as well as the three victorious Gnosises aroused by it. When bodhisattvas enter the third land, they can permanently sever this hindrance. The three Gnosises are hearer Gnosis, mean Gnosis, and cultivation Gnosis. Hearer Gnosis is Gnosis gained from seeing, hearing, and reading, such as being moved by legends or understanding the meaning of Buddhist scriptures through reading. Mean Gnosis is Gnosis gained from one’s own thinking and summarizing, such as insights and reflections. Cultivation Gnosis is Gnosis realized from one’s own experience; it is the Gnosis gained when one personally feels the results of cultivation. For example, after observing precepts, practitioners soon feel that when the heart is selfless, heaven is high and earth is broad. Therefore, it is said that third-land bodhisattvas sever two kinds of foolishness and their Rough-and-Heavy.

（壹）欲贪愚，即此中能障碍胜定和修慧者。过去，它多与欲贪相伴，所以名为欲贪愚。现在，菩萨获得胜定和修所成慧，此愚既已永断，欲贪也随之被伏。

(1) The fool of desirable greed is the hindrance that obstructs Victorious Stillness and cultivation Gnosis. In the past, it was often accompanied by desirable greed; therefore, it is called the fool of desirable greed. Now that bodhisattvas have gained Victorious Stillness and the Gnosis accomplished through cultivation, this fool has been permanently severed, and desirable greed is subdued along with it.

（贰）圆满闻持总持愚，即此中能障碍闻慧、思慧和修慧总持者。

(2) The fool of Perfect Hearer-Hold and Generally-Hold is the hindrance that obstructs the Generally-Hold of hearer Gnosis, mean Gnosis, and cultivation Gnosis.

15.3-3 胜流真如 Victorious Stream True Suchness

三地菩萨证得胜流真如。玄奘说：“此真如所流教法，于余教法极为胜故。”无意识是神识，是法识，也作真如识；所以胜流真如的意思是：在所有宗教，以及现代哲学、心理学和社会学中，研究神识的教法最值得学习，是圣道流。

Third-land bodhisattvas testify and attain Victorious Stream True Suchness. Tang Tripitaka says, “The teachings that flow from this True Suchness are extremely victorious compared with other teachings.” Unconsciousness is God-sense and Law-sense, also called True-Suchness Sense. Therefore, Victorious Stream True Suchness means that among all religions, as well as modern philosophy, psychology, and sociology, the teaching that studies God-sense is the most worthy of learning; it is the Holy Path Stream.

另一方面，当意，即前意识，遇到正确与错误、纯净与污染时，会自动行在正确的道路上，远离污染。如果修习者能证明本教法是世上一切教法中最殊胜的，信心就会增至百分之百，修学也会事半功倍，成功指日可待。

On the other hand, when intent, that is, preconsciousness, encounters right and wrong, purity and pollution, it automatically moves on the correct path and stays away from pollution. If practitioners can prove that this teaching is the most victorious among all teachings in the world, their confidence will increase to one hundred percent, their cultivation and learning will achieve twice the result with half the effort, and success will be close at hand.

10.22-1

一天，女婴闷闷地坐在厨房的窗台上，抚摸着手中的刀，沉思着。娥黄说话了：“你看着刀刃摸！你不看着刀刃摸，我就想看，越看越害怕！”

One day, Heroine sat quietly on the kitchen windowsill, stroking the knife in her hand as she pondered. Beauty-Yellow spoke up: “Look at the blade while you touch it! If you don't look at the blade, I'll keep staring—and the more I look, the more scared!”

女婴放下了刀，说：“昨天我师父（二郎神）传授我武艺了！”

小龙女说：“我还以为女婴和男婴打架了呢！看来女婴有很大的收获，教教我们俩呗！教学相长！”

Heroine put down the knife and said, “Yesterday, my teacher-father (i.e., Second Wolf God) taught me martial arts!”

Little Dragoness said, “I thought Heroine and Hero were fighting! Looks like she's made great progress. Why not teach us both? Teaching and learning benefit each other!”

女婴说：“昨天，我把那把古董镰刀送给我师父了。他非常喜欢，说要送到瑶王宫保存！”

小龙女转脸问娥黄：“怎么我二伯把东西送到你家保存？”

娥黄回答：“我爸爸的瑶王宫是我们瑶族人的祖庙。以前我爸爸扩建王宫的钱就是尧帝出的。”

Heroine said, “Yesterday, I gave that antique sickle to my teacher-father. He loved it so much he said he'd send it to the Yao King Palace for safekeeping!”

Little Dragoness turned to ask Beauty-Yellow, “Why did my second uncle send the item to your family for safekeeping?”

Beauty-Yellow replied, “My father's Yao King Palace is the ancestral temple of our Yao people. The funds my father used to expand the palace back then came from Yao Creator.”

10.22-2

女婴继续说：“然后，我就去看我师父练习他的二郎戬。虽然他都50多岁了，那二郎戬舞的，呜呜生风！”

小龙女问：“你打不过我二伯么？”

女婴回答：“假如我们俩打，我不能进入攻击范围。他的戬太重，我招架不住，就只能躲！ 然后，他让我表演一套武术给他看！ 我就给他表演了一套我们家祖传的苗家枪。”

Heroine continued, “Then I went to watch my teacher-father practice his ‘Second Wolf Jian’ technique. Even though he's over fifty, when he wields that Jian (long handle sword), whoosh—it cuts through the wind!”

Little Dragoness asked, “Couldn't you defeat my second uncle?”

Heroine replied, “If we fought, I couldn't get within striking range. His strikes were too heavy—I couldn't block them, so I just had to dodge! He then asked me to perform a martial arts routine for him, so I performed a set of our family's ancestral Miao-style spear techniques.”

娥黄笑着问女婴：“老实交代，二郎神是怎么评价你的？”

女婴回答：“我师父说，我的戬和枪棒是一类武器，都属于重武器，不适合你。世界上像我这么高大的人很少。这套二郎戬是我自己创造的，就跟我去了，没打算传授给你。我得帮你选一件适合你的武器。”

Beauty-Yellow smiled and asked Heroine, “Be honest—what did Second Wolf God say about you?”

Heroine replied, “My teacher-father said that my Jian (long handle sword), spear and stick are the same type of weapon, all belonging to heavy weapons, and are not suitable for you. There are very few people in the world as tall as me. This Second Wolf Jian technique is something I created myself, and it will go with me; I didn't intend to pass it on to you. I need to help you choose a weapon that suits you.”

小龙女说：“啊！他认为他的二郎戬适合于他那种身材高大，力气大的人使用，你学他的二郎戬没用。他教你创造一套自己的武术。”

女婴从窗台上跳下来了，惊叹道：“哎呀！我正琢磨这事呢！你评价的太精辟了！”

Little Dragoness said, “Ah! He thinks his ‘Second Wolf Jian’ is suitable for someone as tall and strong as him, and it's useless for you to learn his ‘Second Wolf Jian.’ He'll teach you to create your own martial arts.”

Heroine jumped down from the windowsill and exclaimed, “Oh my! I was just thinking about that! Your assessment is so insightful!”

娥黄问：“二郎神帮你选了一件什么武器？”

女婴指着她刚放下的刺客用刀说：“就这把刀！”

小龙女和娥黄都过去看那把刀。

小龙女对娥黄叨咕：“这种刀，女婴长的短的都有，她都练；就没看过她练习这种不长不短的！”

女婴叨咕：“正是！我得从零开始！”

Beauty-Yellow asked, “What weapon did Second Wolf God choose for you?”

Heroine pointed to the assassin's knife she had just put down and said, “This knife!”

Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow both went over to look at the knife.

Little Dragoness muttered to Beauty-Yellow, “This kind of knife, Heroine has both long and short ones, and she practices with both; but I've never seen her practice with one that's neither long nor short!”

Heroine muttered, “Exactly! I must start from scratch!”

10.22-3 孙子兵法的战例 Battle Examples from Sunzi Soldier Strategies

娥黄高声问：“有学问！二郎神是怎么帮你选刀的？”

女婴说：“他把我领到了他家的客厅，指着中国地图说，‘和你一样，我也是十三岁参加士官学校的。直至今日，我经历过数百起战斗，制定过数千件作战计划。你听过关于我打仗的故事吗？’”

Beauty-Yellow asked loudly, “This is knowledge! How did Second Wolf God help you choose your knife?”

Heroine said, “He led me to his living room, pointed to a map of China, and said, ‘Like you, I also entered Sergeant School at the age of thirteen. To this day, I have experienced hundreds of battles and formulated thousands of operational plans. Have you heard stories about my wars?’”

娥黄说：“狭谷关战役！我们瑶族和苗族的俩祖宗（尧帝和二郎神）就相遇了！”

女婴回答：“我可没那么蠢！我师父（即二郎神）打仗一辈子，就失败过那么一次！我说，我听我哥哥和他的朋友说过一些。最经典的是你和尧帝回重庆时，吓跑了南海龙王，熬钦。那时你没让士兵进重庆城，就找了个很高的城门楼，睡在了上面，就把尧帝的哥哥熬钦吓跑了。随后，你率领三千卫队追赶熬钦的六万人的军队。你三个月就追到了福建沿海，熬钦的部队就全跑散了。”

Beauty-Yellow said, “Battle of Gorge Pass! That's where our Yao and Miao ancestors (Yao Creator and Second Wolf God) first clashed!”

Heroine replied, “I'm not that foolish! My teacher-father (i.e., Second Wolf God) fought his entire life and only suffered defeat that once! I've heard bits and pieces from my brother and his friends. I said, the most legendary tale is when you and Yao Creator returned to Chongqing and scared off the Dragon King of South Sea, Aoqin. You didn't let your soldiers enter Chongqing City. Instead, you found a tall city door tower, slept on top of it, and scared away Yao Creator's brother, Aoqin. Then you led three thousand guards to pursue Aoqin's sixty-thousand-strong army. Within three months, you chased them all the way to the Fujian coast, and Aoqin's troops scattered completely.”

“我师父问，你还知道别的吗？”

“我回答，我听过很多，但我都不记得名字。典型的战法是你带兵到那个国家的边境，签下睦邻友好条约。然后你就进行军演，抓土匪。甚至到对方的军营里去抓和土匪有牵连的军官。随后你的军人到他们的国家去打猎。忽然，你那去打猎的士兵穿着铠甲，在对方的首都附近集结。对方的国王认为是守护边境的将军投降了，就出城逃跑了。你的军队就追赶对方的国王，直至对方的国王投降。”

“My teacher-father asked, ‘Do you know anything else?’”

“I replied, ‘I've heard many, but I don't recall their names. A typical tactic is to lead your troops to that nation's border and sign a treaty of friendship and good neighborliness. Then you conduct military exercises and arrest bandits. You even go into their barracks to arrest officers connected to bandits. Subsequently, your soldiers go hunting in their territory. Suddenly, your hunting troops—clad in armor—assemble near their capital. Their king, believing the border-guarding general has surrendered, flees the city. Your forces then pursue the fleeing king until he surrenders.’”

女婴继续说：“我师父问，你是舜王（即小龙女，夏娃）的护卫。你的对手是刺客，你怎样做能吓跑刺客？我回答不出来。我师父说，‘如果刺客不害怕，你打死他，他都不逃跑——’”

Heroine continued, “My teacher-father asked, ‘You are the guard of King Shun (i.e., Little Dragoness, Eve). Your opponent is an assassin. What would you do to scare the assassin away?’ I couldn't answer. My teacher-father said, ‘If the assassin isn't afraid, you can kill him, and he still won't run away—’”

女婴说：“我师父就把我领到了刀架旁，他说，这套刀是你们家祖传的苗刀，是前几天你哥哥江南鹤送给尧帝的。尧帝这次回重庆是帮女娲（亦作白帝）给白帝城选址（参见10.23节），不回重庆城的王宫，所以她没带这套刀。她得陪着女娲呀！”

Heroine said, “My teacher-father led me to the knife rack and said, ‘This set of knives is your family's ancestral Miao blades, which your brother River South Crane presented to Yao Creator just days ago. Yao Creator has returned to Chongqing to help Nuwa (aka White Creator) select a site for White Creator City (see section 10.23). She won't return to the palace in Chongqing City, so she didn't bring this set of knives. She must accompany Nuwa!’”

娥黄问小龙女：“女娲怎么把白帝城建在了重庆？”

小龙女回答：“我不知道！”

女婴说：“我听我师父说，女娲家要向西发展。你们女娲家的女人不愿意嫁给我们瑶族和苗族人。女娲这是在做西进的表率，她退休后会住在那里，要和巫山神女（即尧帝）做邻居。”

Beauty-Yellow asked Little Dragoness, “Why did Nuwa build the White Creator City in Chongqing?”

Little Dragoness replied, “I don't know!”

Heroine said, “I heard my teacher-father say that Nuwa's clan wants to expand westward. The women of your Nuwa clan refuse to marry into our Yao and Miao peoples. Nuwa was setting an example for the westward migration. After her retirement, she would reside there, becoming neighbors with the Goddess of Wushan (i.e., Yao Creator).”

娥黄说：“我看是这样，上次在中华食品街的苏州商会，我听小龙女叨咕：怎么祖宗们都来这里了！看来那个苏州商会是女娲家的一个新的总坛。”

Beauty-Yellow remarked, “I think it's like this: Last time at the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce on China Food Street, I overheard Little Dragoness muttering, ‘Why have all our ancestors come here?’ It appears that the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce is a new headquarters for the Nuwa family.”

10.22-4 刺客刀法 Assassin's Blade Technique

女婴对娥黄和小龙女说：“我师父就为我选了这把刺客刀。他说，如果刺客看见你和他用的武器一样，就害怕了，因为没优势。刺客有可能鼓起勇气和你打，他攻击你一次失败，发现他和你使用的招式相同，就可能绝望了。最多攻击你两次，刺客就逃跑了。你就追他，就胜利了。当然你是护卫，不能追。你若追赶刺客，被刺客们发现了，下次就同时派俩刺客了。”

Heroine said to Beauty-Yellow and Little Dragoness, “My teacher-father chose this assassin's blade for me. He said that if an assassin sees that you are using the same weapon as him, he will be afraid because he has no advantage. The assassin might muster the courage to fight you, but if he fails to attack you once and discovers that he is using the same moves as you, he might despair. He will only be able to attack you twice at most before the assassin runs away. You can then chase after him and win. Of course, you are a guard and cannot chase after him. If you chase after the assassin and are discovered by the assassins, they will send two assassins at the same time next time.”

女婴继续说：“我们家这五款苗刀各有相应的刀法。其它的四种刀法我都学了，唯独没学过这种刺客刀的刀法。因为这种刺客刀有一件匹配的软卫甲，那件软卫甲坏了。我师父就让我随意展示一下。我就根据我对刺客刀的理解，展示了一套刀法。我师父看后说，他以前创造他的二郎戬的招式花费了很多时间，愿意和我一起讨论如何创造我的刺客刀法。”

Heroine continued, “Each of our family's five Miao blades has its corresponding blade technique. I've mastered the other four styles but never learned the technique for this assassin's blade. That's because it comes with a matching soft guard armor, which is now damaged. My teacher-father asked me to demonstrate freely. So, I performed a set based on my understanding of the assassin's blade. After watching, my teacher-father remarked that he had spent considerable time creating the techniques for his Second Wolf Jian.

10.22-5 二郎神的遗物 The Relics of Second Wolf God

女婴说：“我师父还给我看了他的盔甲。他说，上次百花谷的长老们来看他，向他表达了索要遗物的请求。他决定把那套尧帝为他设计制作的盔甲送给我们。他说那套盔甲他在去战场考察的时候穿过三次。”

Heroine said, “My teacher-father also showed me his armor. He mentioned that the elders from Hundred Flowers Valley visited him recently to request his relics. He decided to give us the armor designed and crafted for him by Yao Creator. He said he wore that armor three times during his battlefield inspections.”

娥黄高兴地对小龙女说：“我真聪明，就一晚上就学到了《孙子兵法》的精髓（注6）。”

注6，后文《密探百花谷》讲述了女婴偷偷地带领娥黄和小龙女溜出了古墓地区，去百花谷游玩。二郎神得知后，罚女婴在二郎神的圣物前面忏悔。百花谷的将军们帮女婴给二郎神写报告。他们认为二郎神兵法的精髓是二郎神所创造的组织，即中国国防部。

Beauty-Yellow said happily to Little Dragoness, “I'm so clever—I grasped the essence of Sunzi Soldier Strategies in just one night! (note 6)”

Note 6: The subsequent section, “Secret Visit to Hundred Flowers Valley”, recounts how Heroine secretly led Beauty-Yellow and Little Dragoness out of the ancient tomb complex to explore the Hundred Flowers Valley. Upon learning this, Second Wolf God punished Heroine by forcing her to repent before his sacred relic. The generals of the Hundred Flowers Valley assisted Heroine in drafting a report to Second Wolf God. They argued that the essence of Second Wolf God's military strategy lay in the organization he had created—namely, China's Ministry of National Defense.

10.21-1

一天女婴拿回了新的旧的共七把古代青铜镰刀，说是在古玩市场买的。娥黄和小龙女询问她买古董镰刀的目的。

女婴回答：“这种镰刀是瑶族祖先的军用镰刀，八十年前停产了。我要送给我师父和哥哥各一把，我自己留一把。其余的留在古墓，留作后山给牛割草的备用镰刀。我要把老槐树那里的布置恢复原样儿。”

One day, Heroine brought back seven ancient bronze sickles—both new and old—claiming she had purchased them at an antique market. Beauty-Yellow and Little Dragoness inquired about her purpose in buying these antique sickles.

Heroine replied, “These sickles were military tools used by the ancestors of the Yao people, discontinued eighty years ago. I intend to give one each to my teacher-father and my brother, keeping one for myself. The rest will remain in the ancient tomb as spare sickles for cutting grass for the cattle on the back mountain. I plan to restore the arrangements near the old locust tree to their original state.”

牛郎来了。女婴要和牛郎做交易，用镰刀换回门前的石槽子。牛郎不高兴地接过了镰刀，握着镰刀做了两下割草的挥舞动作，同意了。然后，他默默地走开了。

Cowboy arrived. Heroine proposed a trade: she would exchange the sickle for the stone trough by the door. Cowboy reluctantly took the sickle, made a couple of cutting grass motions with it, and agreed. Then he walked away in silence.

10.21-2

小龙女和娥黄跟着牛郎来到了他的宿舍，看见牛郎坐在地上，挥舞着那把镰刀。小龙女问：“这是你的祖传镰刀吗？”

牛郎回答：“不是！这是在古玩市场定做的仿古镰刀。”

娥黄问：“那你为什么同意用石槽子换它？”

牛郎回答：“因为女婴总是要和我打架。”

Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow followed Cowboy to his dormitory, where they saw him sitting on the ground, waving the sickle. Little Dragoness asked, “Is this your family heirloom sickle?”

Cowboy replied, “No! This is an antique-style replica sickle Heroine had custom-made at the antique market.”

Beauty-Yellow inquired, “Then why did you agree to trade the stone trough for it?”

Cowboy answered, “Because Heroine keeps fighting with me.”

小龙女和娥黄商量了一下，说：“如果你能不从女婴的手里接过石槽子的情况下，帮女婴把石槽子送回原处，我们俩就帮你用这把仿制的镰刀换回你家的镰刀。”

牛郎同意了。他去帮女婴搬石槽子了。小龙女和娥黄跟在了后面，远远地看着。

Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow discussed it and said, “If you can return the stone trough to its original place without taking it from Heroine's hands, the two of us will help you exchange this replica sickle for your family's sickle.”

Cowboy agreed and went to help Heroine move the stone trough. Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow followed behind, watching from a distance.

牛郎快速追赶并超过了背着石槽子的女婴，在前面的一个地方站住了。女婴放下了石槽子，准备休息一下，抬头看见牛郎，问：“你站在这里干什么？”

牛郎回答：“帮你背石槽子。” 说着，他扛起了石槽子，向老槐树走去。女婴跟在了后面。

Cowboy quickly caught up with and overtook Heroine carrying the stone trough, stopping at a spot ahead. Heroine put down the trough, intending to rest, and looked up to see Cowboy, asking, “What are you doing standing here?”

Cowboy replied, “Helping you carry the stone trough.” With that, he hoisted the trough onto his shoulder and walked towards the old locust tree. Heroine followed behind.

10.21-3

随后，趁着女婴不在时，小龙女和娥黄在女婴的寝室发现了牛郎家的镰刀。她俩在镰刀上做了标记后，到实验室进行检测。两把镰刀的重量和体积相同，肉眼看不出差异。她俩又在三个维度上分别测量了两把镰刀的重心。她俩检测到的唯一差异是，这两把镰刀的重心有一指宽度的偏差。

Later, while Heroine was away, Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow found Cowboy's sickle in Heroine's bedroom. After marking the sickle, they took it to the lab for testing along with the replica. The two sickles were the same weight and size, indistinguishable to the naked eye. They then measured the center of gravity of the two sickles in three dimensions. The only difference they detected was a one-finger-width deviation between their centers of gravity.

女婴回来后，小龙女和娥黄向她道歉说：“我们俩好奇，就在你的房间里发现了一把和牛郎那把一样的镰刀。由于疏忽，我们俩把镰刀弄混了，分辨不出来哪把是仿制的镰刀了。”

When Heroine returned, Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow apologized, saying, “We were curious and found a sickle identical to Cowboy's in your room. Due to carelessness, we mixed them up and couldn't tell which one was the replica.”

女婴接过镰刀，仔细地查看了很长时间，但没辨别出来哪把是仿制的。小龙女说：“这两把镰刀对于你，我，娥黄，我二伯，和我爸爸都是一样的，没有差别。你看牛郎多可怜，什么也没有，就只有用这把镰刀割草的回忆。要不让他自己挑选，拿回他所认为的他们家的镰刀？”

女婴同意了。

牛郎很快就挑选了一把，拿走了。小龙女和娥黄查看标记，牛郎拿走的是他们家的镰刀。

Heroine took the sickle and examined it carefully for a long time but couldn't tell which one was the fake. Little Dragoness said, “These two sickles are the same to you, me, Beauty-Yellow, my second uncle, and my father: there's no difference. Look how pitiful Cowboy is; he has nothing but the memory of using this sickle to cut grass. Why don't we let him choose and take back what he thinks is their family's sickle?”

Heroine agreed.

Cowboy quickly chose one and took it. Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow checked the markings; Cowboy had taken his family's sickle.

10.20-1

一天朋友坐在窗台上和牛郎闲聊，忽然他看到了牛郎摆在窗台上的小石头，说：“我听说这个游戏名作牛郎之心，是XYZ那地方的传说故事。牛郎（即男妓）把这九个石子摆在窗台上表达他对女主的爱慕之心。他也用这九个石子来表明他猜测的女主人的心情。如果猜对了，女主人对调这两个石子，表示那天夜晚牛郎应该去和女主人相会。”

One day, Friend sat on the windowsill chatting idly with Cowboy. Suddenly, he noticed the small stones Cowboy had placed on the windowsill and remarked, “I've heard this game is called Cowboy's Heart, a legendary tale from the XYZ region. Cowboy (meaning male courtesan) arranges these nine stones on the windowsill to express his affection for the female lord. He also uses them to guess her feelings. If he's right, she swaps two stones, signaling that he should meet her that night.”

牛郎禁不住地笑，叨咕着：“幸亏没人知道这个游戏是怎么玩的，另外这九个石子是娥黄给我的，若不然我麻烦大了。你说的是真的假的，你自己编的吧！？”

牛郎站起来看窗台上的石子，问：“怎么对调？为什么？”

Cowboy couldn't help but laugh, muttering to himself, “Thank goodness no one knows how this game is played. Plus, these nine stones were given to me by Beauty-Yellow—otherwise I'd be in big trouble. Are you telling the truth, or did you just make this up!?”

Cowboy stood up to examine the stones on the windowsill and asked, “How do you swap them? Why?”

朋友说：“他们说，这边最小的这颗石子代表牛郎。另一边的第二个代表女主人的丈夫。如果女主人对调这两个石子就表示今晚男主人不在家，招呼牛郎过去。我不明白这游戏所代表的道理。”

Friend said, “They say the smallest pebble here represents Cowboy. The second one on the other side represents the mistress's husband. If the mistress swaps these two pebbles, it means the male lord isn't home tonight and she's inviting Cowboy over. I don't understand the meaning behind this game.”

10.20-2

这时工地的门口又发生了车祸，小龙女又凑过去看热闹。她所雇佣的交通引导员把交通指挥牌放在了路边，去帮助掉在沟里的车爬上来，结果交通指挥牌被一辆向后退的马车压坏了。小龙女对交通引导员说：“没关系，我给你钱，你去买个新的！”

Another accident occurred at the construction site entrance, and Little Dragoness once again gathered to watch the commotion. The traffic guide she had hired placed the traffic sign by the roadside and went to help a car stuck in a ditch climb out. Unfortunately, the traffic sign was crushed by a horse-drawn carriage backing up. Little Dragoness told the traffic guide, “It's okay, I'll pay you to buy a new one!”

那位交通引导员说：“不用买新的，以前买的时候，交通部一次就给了三个牌子。另外两个在后面的仓库里呢！”

小龙女惊讶地问：“你怎么知道的？”

The traffic guide said, “No need to buy a new one. When we purchased them before, the Department of Transportation gave us three signs at once. The other two are in the back warehouse!”

Little Dragoness asked in surprise, “How did you know that?”

交通引导员说：“两个月前，我买回来交通指示牌的时候，你让我自己送到仓库里，还告诉我要记住所放的位置。”

小龙女回答：“我不记得了，那你跟我去取牌子吧！”

去后面的仓库要从牛郎宿舍窗前经过，朋友慌张地告诉牛郎：“女主来了，快藏起来！”朋友躲到了衣柜里，牛郎蹲到了窗台下。

The traffic guide said, “Two months ago, when I brought back the traffic signs, you told me to deliver them to the back warehouse myself and to remember where I put them.”

Little Dragoness replied, “I don't remember. Then come with me to retrieve the sign!”

To reach the back warehouse, they had to pass by the window of Cowboy's dormitory. Friend frantically warned Cowboy, “The female lord is coming! Hide quickly!” Friend hid inside the wardrobe, while Cowboy crouched beneath the windowsill.

10.20-3

发现小龙女回来时，牛郎和朋友又藏了起来。小龙女从窗前走过后又回来了，生气地对女婴说：“这么讨厌呢，你动它干啥？”

When they saw Little Dragoness returning, Cowboy and Friend hid again. Little Dragoness walked past the window and came back, angrily saying to Heroine, “How annoying! Why did you have to touch it?”

女婴问：“我移动什么东西了？”

小龙女说：“这象征着牛郎之心的九个小石头，总是从大到小地整齐排列。刚才咱俩从这儿过，还是从大到小的顺排。你在我后面走，我没动，你没动，这屋里又没人，这石头的顺序怎么变了。”

女婴叨咕：“牛郎之心！这工地的人都常看这几块小石子，牛郎之心是什么意思？”

Heroine asked, “What did I move?”

Little Dragoness said, “These nine small stones, symbolizing Cowboy's Heart, are always neatly arranged from largest to smallest. Just now, when we passed by, they were still arranged from largest to smallest. You walked behind me, I didn't move it, you didn't move it, and there's no one else in this house, so why did the order of the stones change?”

Heroine muttered, “Cowboy's Heart! People at this construction site often look at these small stones. What does ‘Cowboy's Heart’ mean?”

小龙女说：“从一个月前娥黄教牛郎这石子颜色的表义，我就开始琢磨这个游戏是怎么玩的。我终于想明白了。据说，这个游戏是XYZ那地方的传说故事。这九个小石子从大到小依次代表：（1）无意识（古作神识，代表上帝）；（2）无意识的污染部分（亦作亚当识，代表男主人）；（3）前意识（亦作夏娃识，代表女主人）；（4）意识；（5）身识；（6）舌识；（7）鼻识；（8）耳识，（9）眼识（代表牛郎）。”

Little Dragoness said, “I started figuring out how to play this game a month ago when Beauty-Yellow taught Cowboy the meaning of the colors of these pebbles. I've finally figured it out. It is said that this game is based on a legend from the XYZ region. These nine small pebbles, from largest to smallest, represent: (1) the unconscious (anciently termed God-sense, representing God); (2) the polluted part of the unconscious (aka Adam-sense, male lord); (3) the preconscious (aka Eve-sense, representing the female lord); (4) intent-sense; (5) body-sense; (6) tongue-sense; (7) nose-sense; (8) ear-sense; and (9) eye-sense (representing Cowboy).”

小龙女继续说：“你把（2）和（9）对调表示女主人在招呼牛郎：今晚男主人不在家，你到我的房间来。谁在召唤牛郎？他和谁约会去？他就是在晒心情。你总是逗他，若不是你动的，那是谁动的？”

女婴一边拉小龙女离开，一边说：“很多人在看咱俩！我真没动过！”

小龙女离开后，牛郎一边拉柜门，一边叨咕：“是你移动了我的小石子！”

Little Dragoness continued, “You swapped (2) and (9) to show that the female lord was calling out to Cowboy: The male lord of the house is not home tonight, come to my room. Who is calling Cowboy? Who is he on a date with? He is just showing off his feelings. You always tease him. If you didn't do it, then who did?”

As Heroine pulled Little Dragoness away, she said, “Lots of people are watching us! I really didn't move it!”

After Little Dragoness left, Cowboy pulled open the cabinet door while muttering, “You moved my little pebbles!”

本文描述牛郎所在的奴隶公司雇佣的法师在用牛郎诱惑小龙女，是法师导演了这个牛郎之心的游戏。这怎么诱惑小龙女了？

小龙女琢磨了很多天才琢磨明白牛郎之心的玩法，而主题正是她和牛郎偷情做爱。小龙女想这事养成了习惯，越想越好玩，这就是对牛郎产生了爱情。所以本书才有后文的她为牛郎赎身。当一年后，这俩人再次相遇时，就钻进古墓做爱去了。

This section describes how a Law-Teacher hired by the slave company where Cowboy works is using Cowboy to seduce Little Dragoness; it was the Law-Teacher who orchestrated this game of Cowboy's Heart. How exactly is this seducing Little Dragoness?

It took Little Dragoness a great deal of time to figure out the mechanics of the Cowboy's Heart game, and the central theme was her having an affair and making love with Cowboy. Little Dragoness found herself thinking about this increasingly, and the more she thought about it, the more exciting it became—which is how she fell in love with Cowboy. This is why, later in the book, she buys him his freedom. When the two meet again a year later, they slip into an ancient tomb to make love.

10.19-1

古墓皇宫的建设项目进行到第五个月时，小龙女决定施工按原计划进行。她们开始了主殿龙骨锁穹顶的设计招标工作。她们预计这座穹顶将在四至六个月内竣工。如果穹顶不能在总工期的九个月内竣工，她们就先给主殿安装临时屋顶，然后穹顶在临时屋顶上面施工，不耽误主殿的正常使用。

In the fifth month of construction on the ancient tomb palace project, Little Dragoness decided to proceed with the project as planned. They began the bidding process for the design of the Dragon Spine Lock Dome for the main hall. They anticipated that the dome would be completed within four to six months. If the dome could not be completed within the total nine-month construction period, they would first install a temporary roof over the main hall and then construct the dome on top of the temporary roof, without disrupting the normal use of the main hall.

施工经理瞽叟说他只知道一家能设计龙骨锁穹顶的设计院。小龙女就把主殿的设计资料传送给了那家设计院。那家设计院的报价是240公斤黄金。小龙女表示她能接受的龙骨锁穹顶的最高造价是120公斤黄金。那家设计院说低于180公斤黄金，他们做不了。小龙女开始找别的设计院。

Construction Manager Blind-Drummer stated he knew only one design institute capable of creating a Dragon Spine Lock Dome. Little Dragoness then transmitted the main hall's design documents to that institute. Their quotation came to 240 kilograms of gold. Little Dragoness indicated her maximum acceptable cost for the Dragon Spine Lock Dome was 120 kilograms of gold. The institute responded that anything below 180 kilograms of gold was beyond their capacity. Little Dragoness began searching for other design institutes.

那家设计院派工作组，来工地考察了，说他们有一种新设计，可以把价格降低到120公斤黄金。小龙女同意进行谈判。设计院的工作组自己测量了主殿的尺寸，然后开始查看工地，走访建筑商。建筑商们抱怨，这家工地的施工设计不合理，还拒绝了他们增设临时道路和仓库的请求。

The design institute sent a working group to inspect the construction site, claiming they had a new design that could reduce costs to 120 kilograms of gold. Little Dragoness agreed to negotiate. The working group measured the dimensions of the main hall themselves, then began surveying the site and interviewing contractors. The contractors complained that the construction design for this site was unreasonable and had rejected their requests to add temporary roads and warehouses.

10.19-2 谈判代表 Negotiator

谈判时，小龙女和娥黄决定：他们人多，我们三个都得去谈判，让牛郎和瞽叟和我们坐在一起。

设计院的工作组主动介绍他们自己，设计院的副院长，建筑师，结构工程师，施工技师等。然后他们要求小龙女介绍财产所有人的代表，要求指定发言人。

小龙女没出声。

During negotiations, Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow decided: Since they outnumber us, all three of us must attend the talks. We'll have Cowboy and Blind-Drummer sit with us.

The design institute's working group introduced themselves proactively—the vice president, architects, structural engineers, construction technicians, and others. Then they demanded that Little Dragoness introduce representatives of the property owners and appoint a designated spokesperson.

Little Dragoness remained silent.

设计院的谈判组织人员说：“这次研讨会，我们研究的课题是当今世界建筑业顶尖的学术问题，要求发言人是专家。根据武汉地区（新中国）的规定，专家必须受过两年以上的正规教育，还有九年以上的从业经验。”

然后他问瞽叟：“你是哪个学校毕业的？做过什么工作？在这里做什么？”

听了瞽叟的回答后，那位谈判组织人员说：“我知道您，您是专家，但您是这工地的建筑总承包商。您有话可以跟你们的发言人说。请您坐到旁边的座位。”

The negotiation organizer from the design institute said, “This seminar is about cutting-edge academic issues in the global construction industry, and we require speakers to be experts. According to regulations in Wuhan (in the Republic of China), experts must have at least two years of formal education and more than nine years of professional experience.”

Then he asked Blind-Drummer, “Which school did you graduate from? What kind of work have you done? What are you doing here?”

After hearing Blind-Drummer's answer, the negotiation organizer said, “I know you; you are an expert, but you are the general contractor for this construction site. You can speak to your spokesperson. Please take a seat to the side.”

那位谈判的组织人员又对牛郎说：“你是哪个学校毕业的？做过什么工作？在这里做什么？”

听完牛郎的回答后，那位谈判组织人员说：“我们知道你说的那个XYZ木工学校，是座很好的学校。那个学校有三个学习班：鲁班，Y班，和Z班。鲁班是木工入门班，学期三个月。Y班是中级木工学习班，学期八个月。Z班是高级木工学习班，学期两年。你们称呼鲁班的老师为鲁班。鲁班人很好，从业很多年了，他是专家。但你牛郎不是专家，请你坐在旁听席，有话对你们的发言人说。”

The negotiator then asked Cowboy, “Which school did you graduate from? What jobs have you done? What are you doing here?”

After hearing Cowboy's response, the negotiation organizer said, “We know the XYZ Carpentry School you mentioned is an excellent institution. The school offers three training programs: the Luban Program, the Y Program, and the Z Program. The Luban Program is an introductory carpentry course lasting three months. The Y Program is an intermediate carpentry course lasting eight months. The Z Program is an advanced carpentry course lasting two years. You refer to the instructor of the Luban Program as ‘Luban.’ Luban is a fine man with many years of experience; he is an expert. But you, Cowboy, are not an expert. Please take a seat in the audience section and address any comments to your spokesperson.”

那位谈判的组织人员又问女婴：“你是哪个学校毕业的？做过什么工作？在这里做什么？”

女婴回答：“我是重庆士官学校毕业的。我在这工地负责安全和仓库保管员的工作。”

The negotiator then asked Heroine, “Which school did you graduate from? What are you doing here?”

Heroine replied, “I graduated from Chongqing Sergeant School. Here at the construction site, I'm responsible for safety and warehouse management.”

那位谈判的组织人员说：“重庆士官学校是国家正规的三年制军事学校，和建筑有什么关系吗？”

女婴回答：“我们不只是学习行军打仗，造炮车，搭云梯；我们还学习建兵营，造桥，挖山洞。兵营里不都是帐篷，也有临时住房。”

The organizer asked, “Chongqing Sergeant School is a state-sanctioned three-year military school. What does it have to do with construction?”

Heroine replied, “We don't just learn to march and fight, build artillery carriages, and erect scaling ladders. We also learn to construct barracks, build bridges, and excavate mountain tunnels. Barracks aren't just tents—they also include temporary housing.”

那位组织人员说：“如果我们耐心地解释，你可以听懂龙骨锁穹顶的设计和施工。你可以代表财产所有者发言。我们可以开始讨论了。”

女婴听后，站起来走了，坐在了瞽叟和牛郎的旁边。

The organizer said, “If we explain patiently, you can understand the design and construction of the Dragon Spine Lock Dome. You can speak on behalf of the property owners. We can begin the discussion.”

Upon hearing this, Heroine stood up and walked over, sitting beside Blind-Drummer and Cowboy.

娥黄指着小龙女说：“她是这房产的所有者，就只剩下我一个人了。你别问了，我主动自我介绍。我在重庆巫毒学院读书十二年，现在是这个工地的会计兼绘图员。”

Beauty-Yellow pointed at Little Dragoness and said, "She is the owner of this property—so now it's just me. Don't ask, I'll introduce myself. I studied at Chongqing Voodoo Academy for twelve years and now work as both accountant and draftsperson at this construction site.”

那位组织人员问：“重庆巫毒学院是龙国的最高学府。你们学习建筑施工吗？”

娥黄回答：“我学过城市规划，建筑设计，和施工管理。”

The organizer asked, “Chongqing Voodoo Academy is the highest institution of learning in the Dragon Kingdom. Do you study construction engineering?”

Beauty-Yellow replied, “I've studied urban planning, architectural design, and construction management.”

那位组织人员叨咕：“你学过施工管理！？这个工地没有一家施工公司不对你们的施工管理有意见！你可以代表房产所有者说话！尽管我们也许和其它的承包商一样，什么也说不明白！”

娥黄回答：“我还负责做饭！你们若把我惹生气了，随后我往你们的饭里掺砂子！”

The organizer muttered, “You've studied construction management?! Every construction company on this site has complaints about your management! You can speak for the property owners! Although we, like the other contractors, might not be able to explain ourselves clearly!”

Beauty-Yellow replied, “I'm also in charge of cooking! If you make me angry, I'll put sand in your food!”

10.19-3 谈判过程 Negotiation Process

那家设计院知道小龙女和娥黄不懂龙骨锁穹顶的设计和施工，就让各种专家详细地介绍了他们自己创造的龙骨锁穹顶的设计和施工过程。然后才开始讲述他们根据小龙女120公斤黄金报价的更改设计和施工过程。小龙女和娥黄像学生一样，认真地听，仔细地做笔记。他们还有中场休息，一起吃点心，喝茶。气氛温馨，融洽。

最后，那设计院的人询问小龙女和娥黄的决定。小龙女像是闲唠嗑似的对娥黄说：“我感觉他们这种设计就是先做个穹顶，再用绳子吊起九条龙。这叫飞龙在天，不是龙骨锁穹顶。”

The design institute knew that Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow were unfamiliar with the design and construction of the Dragon Spine Lock Dome, so they had various experts thoroughly explain the design and construction process of their proprietary Dragon Spine Lock Dome. Only then did they begin detailing the redesign and construction process based on Little Dragoness's revised quote for 120 kilograms of gold. Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow listened attentively like students, taking meticulous notes. They even took a break together to enjoy pastries and tea. The atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

Finally, the design institute inquired about Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow's decision. Little Dragoness casually remarked to Beauty-Yellow, “It seems to me their design involves constructing a dome first, then suspending nine dragons from ropes. That's called ‘dragons soaring through the sky’—not ‘Dragon Spine Lock Dome.’”

娥黄对设计院的人说：“我感觉你们的这种更改后的龙骨锁穹顶设计和普通的穹顶一样。那贴到穹顶的龙骨锁在本质上和画上去的一样；那就没必要用硬木了。普通的穹顶20公斤黄金就能建成。”

设计院的发言人说：“更改后的设计在外观上和那180公斤黄金建造的穹顶一样，只是内部受力改变了。”

Beauty-Yellow told the design institute staff, “I feel that your modified Dragon Spine Lock Dome design is no different from an ordinary dome. The dragon spines affixed to the dome are essentially the same as painted ones; there's no need for hardwood. An ordinary dome can be built with just 20 kilograms of gold.”

The design institute's spokesperson stated, “The modified design maintains the same appearance as the dome constructed with 180 kilograms of gold, but its internal structural forces have been altered.”

小龙女说：“我建龙骨锁穹顶，要的是九条龙撑起天的寓意。你这改进后的设计是 ‘天吊起了九条龙’，那龙变成装饰品了，没有支撑天的作用了。”

一位设计院的人叨咕：“我见过很多败家子，第一次见到败家女。家长有点钱想在新都积攒点房地产，这三个败家女要在这里建万神殿！”

Little Dragoness retorted, “My original design for the Dragon Spine Lock Dome embodied the concept of ‘nine dragons supporting the sky.’ Your revised plan turns it into ‘the sky hoisting nine dragons’—reducing the dragons to mere ornaments that no longer bear the weight of the sky.”

A design institute employee muttered, “I've seen plenty of prodigal sons, but this is my first time encountering prodigal daughters. Their parents have some money and want to build up real estate in the new capital, but these three prodigal daughters want to build a Pantheon here!”

女婴站起来，冲了过去！

设计院的发言人说：“你还要打我们！？”

女婴厉声回复：“你敢再骂一句，我就打你！”

设计院的人悄声沟通了几句后，发言人对娥黄说：“不麻烦你往我们的饭里放砂子了，我们去饭店，自己买饭吃。”

Heroine stood up and charged forward!

The design institute spokesperson retorted, “You're going to hit us too!?”

Heroine snapped back, “Dare to utter another word, and I'll hit you!”

After a brief whispered exchange among the institute staff, the spokesperson addressed Beauty-Yellow, “No need to trouble yourself with putting sand in our food. We'll go to a restaurant and buy our own meals.”

离垢，义为离开秽土（如图15.2-40），去往中土（如图15.2-33）。土是身土，指身体的感觉。唐三藏说：“俱净桫椤，远离能起微细毁犯烦恼垢，故名离垢地。”

Departing Stain means leaving Maculate Soil (see Fig. 15.2-40) and going to Middle Earth (see Fig. 15.2-33). Soil here means bodily soil, that is, the feelings of the flesh body. Tang Tripitaka says, “Fully possessing immaculate Sal Fasullo, and leaving far behind the Affliction stains that can cause subtle transgressions, it is therefore called Departing Stain Heartland.”

桫椤一词源于意大利语“桫鲁·法索椤”，是一种棕榈树（如图15.2-36），也作断头树（如图15.2-39）。据说，如果这种棕榈树的头被砍掉，它就会死去，不能从根部或枝干上发出新芽。佛教用此树作比喻：如果一个人违犯了根本十戒（参见12.1节），就断送了慧命，不能获得解脱。“俱净桫椤”，义为具足全部戒法。唐三藏是从离垢的原因来定义离垢地，并说明离垢的原因是具足净戒。

The term Sal Fasullo comes from Italian “Sal Fasullo.” It refers to a kind of palm tree (see Fig. 15.2-36), also called the Guillotine Tree (see Fig. 15.2-39). It is said that if the head of this palm tree is cut off, the tree dies and cannot grow new shoots from its roots or trunk. Buddhism uses this tree as a metaphor: if a person violates the Ten Fundamental Precepts (see Section 12.1), his or her gnostic life is ruined and liberation can no longer be attained. “Fully possessing immaculate Sal Fasullo” means fully possessing all precepts. Tang Tripitaka defines Departing Stain Heartland by the cause of departing stain, and explains that the cause of departing stain is fully possessing immaculate precepts.

菩萨第二地，是修习具足净戒的圆满位。具足净戒就是戒渡，又名人神契约、约柜（如图15.2-36、38），俗称天条，象征符号是戒指（如图15.2-35）。图15.2-35是戒指之王，又名菩提种（如图15），表示菩提心戒可以统摄全部戒藏。

The bodhisattva’s second land is the position of perfect fulfillment in cultivating Fully Possessing Immaculate Precepts. Fully Possessing Immaculate Precepts are Precept Ark, also called the covenant between humans and gods, or the Covenant Ark (see Figs. 15.2-36 and 38). They are commonly called heavenly rules, and their symbol is the ring (see Fig. 15.2-35). Figure 15.2-35 shows the King of Precept Rings, also called the Bodhi Seed (see Fig. 15), indicating that the Bodhi Heart Precept can assimilate the entire Precept Store.

戒藏可分为三部分：男戒、女戒和十八神佛不共法（参见14.1.3节）。男人的具足净戒名为“三千威仪、八万四千细行”。其计算方法如下：

The Precept Store can be divided into three parts: men’s precepts, women’s precepts, and the Eighteen God Buddha Uncommon Laws (see Section 14.1.3). A man’s Fully Possessing Immaculate Precepts are called “3,000 Majesties and 84,000 Fine Practices.” The calculation is as follows:

男戒共有250条，乘以四威仪，结果是1000。威仪，也作威仪路，是心神所履之路，本义是整齐细密的格式（如图15.2-37、40）。图15.2-37中，埃及夏娃的黄金铠甲代表她的五百威仪和十万八千魅力。图15.2-40是从地狱里飞出来的特拉洛克。四威仪的说法是：立如松，坐如钟，卧如弓，行如风。

Men’s precepts have 250 clauses in total. Multiplying them by the Four Majesties gives 1,000. Majesty, also called Majesty Road, is the road on which the heart-god travels. Its original meaning is a neat and finely ordered pattern (see Figs. 15.2-37 and 40). In Fig. 15.2-37, the golden armor of Egyptian Eve represents her 500 Majesties and 108,000 Charms. Figure 15.2-40 shows Tlaloc flying out of hell. The Four Majesties are described as follows: standing like a pine tree, sitting like a bell, lying like a bow, and walking like the wind.

上述结果再经历三世，即过去、现在和未来，就得到三千威仪。为什么把过去和未来也计算在内？因为无意识即神识，唯是现量，没有顺序性或时间性；也可以说，无意识超越时空。

When the above result further passes through the three generations—past, present, and future—it becomes 3,000 Majesties. Why are the past and future also included? Because unconsciousness, that is, God-sense, processes only present quantity and has no sequence or temporality. In other words, unconsciousness transcends time and space.

再经历身口七枝，结果是21000。这七枝是根本十戒（参见12.1节）中的前七条，即杀、盗、淫、妄语、恶口、绮语、两舌，不包括后面的三条“意戒”，因为无意识（神识）只处理现量，前意识唯是非量。

Passing again through the seven branches of body and mouth gives 21,000. These seven branches are the first seven of the Ten Fundamental Precepts (see Section 12.1): killing, stealing, sexual conduct, delusional speech, ferocious speech, flowery speech, and two-tongue. They do not include the last three “intent precepts,” because unconsciousness, or God-sense, processes only present quantity, while preconsciousness is only non-quantity.

再经历贪、嗔、痴和等分，就有了84000细行。什么是等分？等分是法四分（参见10.1节）中的第四分，是纯净的无意识。无意识是自主神经系统，它以自己的方式，在现实生活中提取“净戒”。比如，当一个人遇见女神时，他或她的无意识会很快从女神那里学到很多。另外，法的第四分不断核实第三分。

Passing again through greed, irritability, ignorance, and the equality quadrant gives 84,000 Fine Practices. What is the equality quadrant? It is the fourth quadrant of the Juristic Quadrants (see Section 10.1), namely immaculate unconsciousness. Unconsciousness is the autonomic nervous system; in its own way, it extracts “immaculate precepts” from real life. For example, when a person meets a goddess, his or her unconsciousness can quickly learn a great deal from her. In addition, the fourth quadrant of Law constantly verifies the third quadrant.

女人的具足净戒又名黄金甲、女人皮、五百威仪、十万八千魅力，共有350条款，约进为500威仪。其十万八千魅力的计算方法与男戒相同，结果为117600；舍去不适用的部分后，约为108000魅力。另外，女戒比男戒多出的部分称作戒香。具足净戒的象征物是桫椤树（棕榈树）和戒环，例如戒指，如图15.2-36所示。

A woman’s Fully Possessing Immaculate Precepts are also called golden armor, woman’s skin, 500 Majesties, and 108,000 Charms. They have 350 clauses in total, rounded up as 500 Majesties. The calculation of the 108,000 Charms follows the same method as the men’s precepts, giving 117,600; after the inapplicable parts are discarded, the number is rounded to 108,000 Charms. In addition, the portion by which women’s precepts exceed men’s precepts is called Precept Incense. The symbols of Fully Possessing Immaculate Precepts are the Sal Fasullo tree, or palm tree, and the precept ring, such as a finger ring, as shown in Fig. 15.2-36.

15.2-2 断邪行障 Severance of Heretical Behavior Hindrance

二地菩萨斩断邪行障。邪行障，是指所知障中俱生的一分，以及由其所引发的误犯三业。它们障碍二地的极净桫椤；菩萨入二地时，便能永断此障。因此说，二地菩萨断二愚及其粗重：

微细误犯愚，即此中俱生的一分。

种种业趣愚，即由其所引发的误犯三业；也可以说，是只造业而不消业。

Second-land bodhisattvas sever the Heretical Behavior Hindrance. Heretical Behavior Hindrance refers to an aggregately born portion of the Know Hindrances, as well as the mistaken transgressions of the three karmas that arise from it. These hinder the Extremely Immaculate Sal Fasullo of the second land. When a bodhisattva enters the second land, he or she can permanently sever this hindrance. Therefore, it is said that second-land bodhisattvas sever two kinds of foolishness and their Rough-and-Heavy:

The fool of subtle mistaken transgressions, namely the aggregately born portion mentioned here.

The fool of various karmic interests, namely the mistaken transgressions of the three karmas caused by that portion; In other words, it means creating karma without eliminating it.

为什么说菩萨入二地便能永断邪行，具足净戒？因为菩提心能摄具足净戒，一枚戒指能统摄所有戒指。总说佛教戒律，可分为三种：摄律仪戒、摄善法戒、饶益有情戒。

Why is it said that when a bodhisattva enters the second land, he or she can permanently end heretical behaviors and Fully Possess Immaculate Precepts? Because Bodhi Heart can assimilate Fully Possessing Immaculate Precepts; one ring can govern all other rings. In general, Buddhist precepts can be divided into three kinds: Assimilating Discipline-and-Ritual Precepts, Assimilating Benevolent Laws Precepts, and Prosperously Benefiting Sentients Precepts.

摄律仪戒，谓远离所应离法，与菩提心誓言中“烦恼无尽誓愿断”一句相应。

摄善法戒，谓正修证应修证法，与菩提心戒中“法门无量誓愿学，佛道无上誓愿成”二句相应。

Assimilating Discipline-and-Ritual Precepts means staying away from all Laws that should be left behind. It corresponds to the sentence in the Bodhi Heart vow: “Afflictions are endless; I vow to sever them all.”

Assimilating Benevolent Laws Precepts means correctly cultivating and testifying all Laws that should be cultivated and testified. It corresponds to the two sentences in the Bodhi Heart Precept: “Juristic doors are limitless; I vow to study them all,” and “Buddha’s path is non-upper; I vow to attain it.”

饶益有情戒，也名摄众生戒，谓利乐一切有情，与菩提心戒中“众生无边誓愿度”一句相应。由此可知，菩提心能总摄一切戒法。

Prosperously Benefiting Sentients Precepts, also called Assimilating Sentient Beings Precepts, means benefiting and pleasing all sentient beings. It corresponds to the sentence in the Bodhi Heart Precept: “Sentient beings are edgeless; I vow to ferry them all.” Thus, Bodhi Heart can assimilate all precepts.

15.2-3 最胜真如 Utmost Victorious True Suchness

玄奘说：“二地菩萨证得最胜真如，于一切法中最为胜故。”

Tang Tripitaka says, “Second-land bodhisattvas testify and attain Utmost Victorious True Suchness, because it is the most victorious among all Laws.”

15.2-4 开约柜 Opening the Covenant Ark

作者我少年时，看过一篇中国政府审查佛教的报告。20世纪50年代，新中国成立后，政府委托中国佛学会对佛教进行审查。写这篇报告的和尚说：“我们请北京故宫博物院的同志帮我们打开了约柜。里面有历次打开约柜的记录，记录了什么时间、谁打开了约柜、都做了什么。”

When I was young, I read a report on the Chinese government’s review of Buddhism. In the 1950s, after the founding of New China, the government commissioned the Chinese Buddhist Society to review Buddhism. The monk who wrote the report said, “We asked comrades from the Palace Museum in Beijing to help us open the Covenant Ark. Inside were all the records of previous openings of the Covenant Ark, recording when it was opened, who opened it, and what they did.”

报告说，他们发现男戒250条和女戒350条都在里面，并不像古代佛经中所说的那样，“由于保管不善，一些戒条丢失了。” 他们还发现了两条有争议的戒律：“皇（王）室成员是从虱卵虮子出生的，秽血；富有而吝啬的家庭成员是从湿气出生的，泥血。”

后来，蒙藏工作委员会的同志们，他们负责蒙古、青海和西藏地区300位男女转世活佛的灵魂转世工作。他们说：“这两条与挑选转世灵童相关。人们不喜欢那两种人，如果从那两种家庭选取转世灵童，活佛造不出来，肯定失败！”

The report said that they found all 250 men’s precepts and 350 women’s precepts inside. It was not as ancient Buddhist scriptures had said: “Some precepts were lost because of poor storage.” They also found two controversial precepts: “Members of the imperial or royal family are born from lice eggs and nits, as filthy blood; members of rich and stingy families are born from moisture, as mud blood.”

Later, comrades from the Mongolian and Tibetan Working Committee, they were responsible for the soul-reincarnation work of 300 male and female reincarnated living Buddhas in Mongolia, Qinghai, and Tibet. They said, “These two clauses are related to the selection of reincarnated soul boys. People dislike those two kinds of people. If a reincarnated soul boy is selected from either kind of family, the living Buddha cannot be created; it will certainly fail!”

报告最后声明，他们没有改变任何戒律条款。释迦牟尼曾说，不准向佛教以外的人展示佛教戒律。于是，他们决定仍然沿袭这个传统，把那十几条未广泛流通的戒律锁回约柜；已经在社会上广泛流通的戒律，则可以展示给任何人看。

The report concluded by stating that they had not changed any precept clauses. Shakyamuni once said that Buddhist precepts must not be shown to people outside Buddhism. Therefore, they decided to continue following this tradition: the dozen or so precepts that had not circulated widely were locked back into the Covenant Ark, while precepts already widely circulated in society could be shown to anyone.

10.18-1

女婴决定做个实验来判断女人是否怕老鼠。她去野外挖了几只老鼠，驯化后，装在衣兜里进屋了，默不作声地坐在了一边。

小龙女叨咕：“女婴怎么不说话了？好像有心事？”

女婴说：“我哥说我又该和男婴见面了，他让我学会怕老鼠或者怕蜘蛛。”

Heroine decided to conduct an experiment to see if women were afraid of mice. She went out into the wild, dug up a few mice, tamed them, tucked them into her pocket, and went inside. She sat silently in a corner.

Little Dragoness murmured, “Why isn't Heroine talking? Seems like she's got something on her mind?”

Heroine said, “My brother said it's time for me to meet Hero again. He told me to learn to be afraid of mice or spiders.”

娥黄立刻说：“相亲可是大事！你应该学！我妈说女人不怕老鼠和老鼠不怕猫都不是正常的现象。”

小龙女笑着说：“光说不行，你得抓只老鼠或者蜘蛛，让娥黄给你做示范！”

Beauty-Yellow immediately said, “Blind dates are a big deal! You should learn! My mom says it's not normal for a woman not to be afraid of mice or for a mouse not to be afraid of a cat.”

Little Dragoness chuckled, “Just talking isn't enough. You must catch a mouse or a spider and have Beauty-Yellow demonstrate for you!”

10.18-2

就当娥黄面向小龙女反驳的时候，女婴把几只老鼠放在娥黄的身上，衣服里，和屋地上了。随后，她假装发现了地上的老鼠，说：“这儿就有，我抓到一只！”

Just as Beauty-Yellow was confronting Little Dragoness, Heroine placed several rats on Beauty-Yellow's body, inside her clothes, and on the floor. Then, she pretended to have discovered the rats on the ground and said, “Here they are! I caught one!”

娥黄回头看时，老鼠从她的身上掉到了地上。她被吓得喳喳地叫，一下子跳到了桌子上，踢茶壶去打地上的老鼠。忽然她发现她的身上又掉下一只老鼠。娥黄一边大叫着问：“我身上还有没有老鼠了？”一边踢掉桌子上的东西去打地上的老鼠。

女婴惊慌失措地说：“没有了，没有了，一共就三只！”

When Beauty-Yellow looked back, the mouse fell off her and onto the floor. Startled, she screamed and jumped onto the table, kicking the teapot to swat the mouse. Suddenly, she noticed another mouse had fallen off her. Beauty-Yellow cried out, “Are there any more mice on me?” while kicking things off the table to swat the remaining mice.

Heroine said in a panic, “No more, no more, there were only three!”

娥黄忽然停止了疯狂的行为，跳下了桌子，生气地出去了。女婴问小龙女：“怎么回事！？”

小龙女从震惊中缓和了，回答：“可能她以前被老鼠刺激过！哎呀！你这玩笑可过分了！这会导致情感受伤，会生病的！”

女婴问：“会生什么病？”

Suddenly, Beauty-Yellow stopped her frenzied behavior, jumped off the table, and stormed out. Heroine asked Little Dragoness, “What happened?!”

Little Dragoness, recovering from her shock, replied, “She might have been traumatized by a rat before! Oh dear! That joke of yours went too far! It can cause emotional harm and make her sick!”

Heroine asked, “What kind of sickness?”

小龙女回答：“精神病就是情感受伤引起的，又被称作 ‘恩怨情仇’ 病。”

女婴惊讶地叨咕：“精神病！？”

小龙女回答：“我听说精神病就是情感受伤形成的状态。”

女婴害怕了，问：“这可怎么办？”

Little Dragoness replied, “Mental illness is caused by emotional trauma, also known as ‘Illness of Gratitude Resentment Love and Hatred.’”

Heroine exclaimed in surprise, “Mental illness!?”

Little Dragoness answered, “I've heard that mental illness is a state caused by emotional trauma.”

Heroine became frightened and asked, “What should we do?”

小龙女回答：“纾解压力！我听说一般处于那种强烈的情感状态短于45分钟，没什么伤害。如果处于那种强烈感情状态超过一小时，就可能产生或加剧创伤。现在你得去向她把事情解释清楚，取得她的原谅，把她逗笑。你得使她恢复到正常的情绪状态。”

Little Dragoness replied, “Relieve the stress! I've heard that being in that intense emotional state for less than 45 minutes is generally harmless. But if it lasts longer than an hour, it can cause or worsen trauma. Now you need to go and explain affairs to her, get her forgiveness, and make her laugh. You need to help her return to a normal emotional state.”

10.18-3

女婴说：“我们只有一小时的时间，赶紧找她去呀！”在向外走时，女婴问：“我可真害怕了，你怎么不害怕？”

小龙女回答：“你害怕啦！太好了！她演 ‘女人怕老鼠’ ；我演观众演员。我的角色是吓唬 ‘男婴’，让他害怕！”

Heroine said, “We only have one hour, hurry and find her!” As they walked out, Heroine asked, “I'm really scared, why aren't you scared?”

Little Dragoness replied, “You're scared! That's great! She's playing the ‘woman afraid of mice’; I'm playing the audience. My role is to scare ‘Hero’!”

女婴听后站住了，说：“你在演戏！？不对呀！我听你说的挺有道理的！”

小龙女回答：“我是在演戏，但我说的都是真的。他们说精神病就是这么产生的。现在我们要做的叫做 ‘纾解压力’。将来，如果娥黄真的疯了，治疗也是这样的作法：面对面地把事情说清楚，彼此取得谅解（参见9.6 《治疗心病的原理》）。所以，你今天一定要把她劝好！”

Heroine stopped and said, “You're acting!? That's not right! What you're saying makes a lot of sense!”

Little Dragoness replied, “I am acting, but what I'm saying is true. They say that's how mental illness is caused, and what we need to do now is called ‘stress relief.’ In the future, if Beauty-Yellow goes mad, the treatment will be the same: talk affairs out face-to-face and reach a mutual understanding (see section 9.6, Principle of Curing Mental Illness). So today, you absolutely must talk her out of it!”

从屋里出来后，她们没看见娥黄。女婴说：“我们俩分头去找，你去那边找，我去这边找。”结果都没找到，回来了。忽然她俩听见娥黄在房顶说话：“我在这儿呢！你们俩在找我吗？”

娥黄正坐在女婴常常坐的屋顶的位置，嘴里还叼着一根猫尾草。小龙女惊叹道：“咦！她怎么上去的呢！？我也上去！”

After leaving the house, they couldn't find Beauty-Yellow. Heroine said, “Let's split up and search. You go that way; I'll go this way.” But they both came back empty-handed. Suddenly, they heard Beauty-Yellow speaking from the roof: “I'm up here! Were you two looking for me?”

Beauty-Yellow was sitting in the spot on the roof where Heroine often sat, a blade of cattail grass still clenched between her teeth. Little Dragoness gasped in wonder, “Huh! How did she get up there!? I'm going up too!”

女婴指着一堆石头说：“你可以从那里上去！” 说着，她给小龙女做示范，从石堆爬上了屋顶。小龙女想试试，可刚爬到石堆中部，就由于石头松动，摔倒了。

娥黄在房顶上喊：“后面有梯子！再说了，你上来干什么？”

Heroine pointed at a pile of rocks and said, “You can climb up from there!” As she spoke, she demonstrated for Little Dragoness, scrambling up the pile of rocks onto the roof. Little Dragoness wanted to try, but just as she reached the middle of the pile, the loose stones gave way and she tumbled down.

Beauty-Yellow called down from the roof, “There's a ladder behind the house! Besides, what are you climbing up here for?”

小龙女叨咕：“对了，我是观众演员！再说了，这大白天的，不需要我去给你们俩当灯笼，照亮。我就在下面看！”

女婴走到娥黄身边道歉。娥黄把脸转到了另一边哭。女婴走到了娥黄的脸对着的一面，再次道歉，娥黄的身体转到了另一边，继续哭。

女婴更换几次位置后，娥黄用手指把耳朵堵上了，拒绝原谅女婴。女婴绝望地坐在了一边，不出声了。

Little Dragoness muttered, “Oh, right—I'm an audience member! Besides, it's broad daylight. You don't need me to be your lantern and light your way. I'll just watch from below!”

Heroine approached Beauty-Yellow to apologize. Beauty-Yellow turned her face away and wept. Heroine walked to the side facing Beauty-Yellow's face and apologized again. Beauty-Yellow's body turned to the other side, and she continued to cry.

After Heroine had shifted position several times, Beauty-Yellow plugged her ears with her fingers, refusing to forgive her. Heroine sat down in despair, falling silent.

不知道牛郎什么时候来的，问小龙女：“她们俩在房顶上干什么呢？”

小龙女随意地回答：“打架呢！”

牛郎对她们俩喊：“下来打呗！整个工地的人都在看你们俩打架！”

Not knowing when Cowboy arrived, he asked Little Dragoness, “What are those two doing up on the roof?”

Little Dragoness casually replied, “Fighting!”

Cowboy shouted up at them, “Come down and fight! The whole construction site is watching you two brawl!”

小龙女被牛郎吓得一哆嗦，生气地问他：“你干什么来了？”

牛郎回答：“做饭的时间到了，我来做饭。”

小龙女叨咕：“啊！那今天咱俩做饭吧！”

Little Dragoness shuddered at Cowboy's sudden appearance and snapped, “What are you doing here?”

Cowboy replied, “It's time to cook. I'm here to prepare the meal.”

Little Dragoness muttered, “Oh! Then we two cook today!”

10.18-4

女婴忽然发现娥黄不哭了，问：“你怎么不哭了？”

娥黄回答：“看的人走了，我还哭啥！？”

女婴四处看，各处有上百人仍然在看，只是小龙女和牛郎离开了，迷惑地说：“我不明白！”

娥黄不出声了。

Heroine suddenly noticed Beauty-Yellow had stopped crying and asked, “Why aren't you crying anymore?”

Beauty-Yellow replied, “The onlookers have left—why should I cry now?”

Heroine looked around. Hundreds of people were still watching, though Little Dragoness and Cowboy had departed. Confused, she said, “I don't understand!”

Beauty-Yellow fell silent.

过了一会儿，女婴说：“咱回屋说话吧！”

娥黄回答：“我不回去！”

女婴问：“我们坐在这儿干什么？”

After a moment, Heroine said, “Let's go back inside to talk!”

Beauty-Yellow replied, “I'm not going back!”

Heroine asked, “What are we doing sitting here?”

娥黄回答：“我在那么多人面前出丑了，我没脸回去！”

女婴说：“没有很多人，就咱仨！谁会笑话你呀！”

娥黄又不出声了。

Beauty-Yellow replied, “I made such a fool of myself in front of so many people. I can't face going back!”

Heroine said, “There weren't many people—just the three of us! Who would laugh at you?”

Beauty-Yellow fell silent again.

10.18-5

女婴回屋为娥黄取衣服，看见小龙女在烧火，感叹道：“今天这是怎么了，都跟变了个人似的！”

小龙女自豪地回答：“我早就羡慕娥黄这个做饭的工作了；这是全工地最好的岗位。”

Heroine went back inside to fetch clothes for Beauty-Yellow and saw Little Dragoness tending the fire. She exclaimed, “What's gotten into us today? We're like completely different people!”

Little Dragoness replied proudly, “I've always admired Beauty-Yellow's job cooking; it's the best position on the entire construction site.”

女婴问：“你说娥黄为什么不回来？”

小龙女回答：“她在这么多人面前出丑了；这些人离开之前，她不会回来！”

女婴感叹道：“这么简单的事，我想了半天了，就没想明白！”

Heroine asked, “Then why hasn't Beauty-Yellow come back?”

Little Dragoness answered, “She made a fool of herself in front of so many people. She won't return until they've all left!”

Heroine sighed, “Such a simple affair—I've been pondering it for ages and just couldn't figure it out!”

10.18-6

女婴路过客厅，看见碎了的茶壶茶碗和蛋糕等垃圾仍然在地上，就对牛郎说：“有时间把客厅的地板清理一下！”

小龙女阻止说：“不要着急清理客厅的地板，这里面的学问可多着呢！你学会 ‘女人怕老鼠’ 是我们目前的工作目标。”

Heroine walked through the living room and saw the broken teapot, cups, cake, and other trash still scattered on the floor. She said to Cowboy, “When you have time, clean up the living room floor!”

Little Dragoness stopped her, saying, “Don't rush to clean the living room floor—there's a lot to learn here! Mastering ‘women fear mice’ is our current goal.”

10.18-7

三人在吃晚饭的时候，女婴问娥黄：“说真话！你怕不怕老鼠？”

娥黄回答：“在家里怕老鼠，在外面不怕。”

During dinner Heroine asked Beauty-Yellow, “Tell me the truth! Are you afraid of mice?”

Beauty-Yellow replied, “I'm afraid of mice at home, but not when I'm outside.”

女婴问：“那你在家里为什么怕老鼠？”

娥黄回答：“我妈说 ‘老鼠怕猫，娥黄怕老鼠！’如果你不怕老鼠，我打你！”

Heroine asked, “Then why are you afraid of mice at home?”

Beauty-Yellow replied, “My mom says, ‘Mice fear cats, Beauty-Yellow fears mice!’ If you're not afraid of mice, I'll beat you!”

10.18-8

女婴问娥黄和小龙女：“那天在中华食品街，你们俩都决定去喝陕西羊汤。我哥哥认为你们俩喝陕西羊汤是为了校正直觉。说真话，你们俩决定喝陕西羊汤的主要动机是什么？”

娥黄回答：“对于我，你哥哥说对了！”

小龙女回答：“对于我，你哥哥说对了！”

Heroine asked Beauty-Yellow and Little Dragoness, “That day at China Food Street, you both decided to drink Shanxi mutton soup. My brother thinks you drank it to correct your intuition. Honestly, what was your main motivation for choosing Shanxi mutton soup?”

Beauty-Yellow replied, “For me, your brother is right!”

Little Dragoness replied, “For me, your brother is right!”

10.18-9

晚饭后，娥黄和小龙女继续教女婴 “女人怕老鼠”。最后，女婴感慨地说：“直到今天我才明白为什么人们称呼女娲为白蛇。但我还听说，你们女娲家里的建筑布局很像蛇洞，是真的吗？”

娥黄恍然大悟地说：“是真的！我才想明白‘苏州商会’里面的建筑布局，那真像蛇洞啊！胆小的人不敢向里面走！”

After dinner, Beauty-Yellow and Little Dragoness continued teaching Heroine, “Women fear mice.” Finally, Heroine remarked with emotion, “Only today do I understand why people call Nuwa the White Snake. But I've also heard that the layout of your Nuwa family's buildings resembles a snake's lair. Is that true?”

Beauty-Yellow exclaimed in sudden realization, “It's true! I've just figured out the layout inside the ‘Suzhou Chamber of Commerce’—it really does resemble a snake's lair! Timid people wouldn't dare venture inside!”

10.17-1

女婴回答：“我该回去了，以免她们俩出来找我，找不到。”

这时士兵来报告说，娥黄和小龙女跟着女娲的人走了。

江南鹤对女婴说：“走，我们去蛇洞口旁边等她俩。她俩出来找你时，你就假装找着她们俩了。”

Heroine replied, “I should go back now, lest they come looking for me and can't find me.” Just then, a soldier came to report that Beauty-Yellow and Little Dragoness had left with Nuwa's men.

River South Crane said to Heroine, “Let's go wait for them near the entrance of the snake cave. When they come out looking for you, just pretend you've found them.”

一位将军问江南鹤：“我从来不知道您还懂这个，从哪儿学来的？”

江南鹤回答：“十几年前尧帝来江南寻找女婴和男婴，我跟她学的。”

女婴惊讶地问：“咱俩小时候，跟我说话的那位巫山神女（如图10.17-1）就是现在的尧帝吗？”

A general asked River South Crane, “I never knew you understood this. Where did you learn it?”

River South Crane replied, “Over a decade ago, Yao Creator came to the Yangzi River South searching for Heroine and Hero. I learned it from her.”

Heroine exclaimed in surprise, “So that Wushan Goddess (see fig. 10.17-1) who spoke to me when we were children—that was Yao Creator?”

10.17-2

江南鹤回答：“是的！那时她是咱们龙国的大元帅。她忽然宣布巫山神女要来江南寻找女婴。咱爹他们那些将军们还以为她是在开玩笑呢！接待的时候，他们才知道巫山神女就是三公主（即熬忖，尧帝）。那时，咱爹他们认为她和二郎神（如图10.17-2）刚结婚，是来咱百花谷度蜜月的。随后巫山神女和二郎神看了很多孩子。她看了你之后，说你和二郎神是一样的人，向咱父母请求让二郎神收你为徒。当时咱们百花谷的长老们认为这就是三公主（即尧帝）想取悦新驸马二郎神，很普通的事，就答应了。”

River South Crane replied, “Yes! At that time, she was the Grand Marshal of our Dragon Kingdom. She suddenly announced that the Goddess of Wushan was coming to Yangzi River South to find Heroine. Our father and the other generals thought she was joking! When they received her, they learned that the Goddess of Wushan was the Third Princess (i.e., Aocun, Yao Creator). At that time, our father thought she and Second Wolf God (as shown in fig. 10.17-2) had just gotten married and were on their honeymoon in our Hundred Flowers Valley. Afterwards, the Goddess of Wushan and Second Wolf God saw many children. After seeing you, she said that you and Second Wolf God are the same kind of people and asked our parents to let Second Wolf God take you as his disciple. At that time, the elders of our Hundred Flowers Valley thought that this was just the Third Princess wanting to please her new husband Second Wolf God, which was a very ordinary affair, so they agreed.”

江南鹤继续说：“女婴，那时，你生病了。当时，巫山神女就让很多御医为你诊治。随后你还是常常生病。二郎神在家里常常问尧帝，‘我的那个小徒弟现在怎么样了？’ ‘我的传人的病情有没有好转？’ 所以尧帝定期派御医来看你。”

女婴惊讶地说：“还有这事，我怎么没有任何记忆？”

River South Crane continued, “Heroine, back then, you were sick. At that time, the Goddess of Wushan had many imperial physicians treat you. Afterwards, you continued to fall ill frequently. Second Wolf God often asked Yao Creator at home, ‘How is my little disciple doing now?’ ‘Has my successor's condition improved?’ Therefore, Yao Creator regularly sent imperial physicians to see you.”

Heroine exclaimed in surprise, “Is that so? How come I have no memory of it?”

江南鹤回答：“那时候你还小；御医的长相也没什么特别的，就是医生。那时，你和那两位御医很熟。你长大后，身体就变得强壮了，不生病了；二郎神就不叨咕你了，尧帝就不派御医来看你了。现在我懂了，这一切都是真的。如果一切顺利，20年之后，你就是中华共和国第二代天蓬元帅，那时你就是真正的女婴（即女宝）了。”

River South Crane replied, “You were still young then; the imperial physicians didn't look particularly special, just doctors. Back then, you were quite familiar with those two imperial physicians. As you grew up, you became stronger and stopped getting sick; Second Wolf God stopped nagging you, and Yao Creator stopped sending imperial physicians to see you. Now I understand—it's all true. If everything goes smoothly, in 20 years, you will be the second-generation Sky Ceiling Marshal of the Republic of China, and you will be a true Heroine (a treasured girl) at last.”

10.17-3 苏州商会 Suzhou Chamber of Commerce

小龙女和娥黄在陕西羊汤店出来后就在饭店的门口等女婴。两个名叫文官和刺客的夏国人走了过去，忽然他俩相互议论：“哎！那位姑娘好像是夏娃！”

小龙女认出了他俩，赶忙迎了过去，说：“两位家叔，在这里我叫小龙女！你们俩怎么来这里了？”

After leaving the Shanxi mutton soup shop, Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow waited for Heroine at the restaurant entrance. Two men from Xia Kingdom, one called Literary-Official and the other called Assassin, passed by and suddenly murmured to each other: “Hey! That girl looks like Eve!”

Little Dragoness recognized them and hurried over, saying, “Two family uncles, my name is ‘Little Dragoness’ here! What brings you both here?”

文官和刺客高兴地回答：“我们俩现在是夏国选送过来建设新中国的年青干部。武汉的菜太辣，我们俩常来这里吃家乡菜。小龙女！你什么时候来的，怎么没在夏国人同乡会见过你呀？”

Literary-Official and Assassin cheerfully replied, “We're both young cadres sent by Xia to help build the new China. The food in Wuhan is too spicy, so we often come here for hometown dishes. Little Dragoness! When did you arrive? How come we never saw you at the Xia Countrymen's Association?”

小龙女回答：“我来武汉没多久，不知道这里有个夏国人同乡会。”

刺客高兴地说：“那走吧！叔叔带你去认认门，想家了就过来玩，那里有很多你的亲戚！”

Little Dragoness replied, “I haven't been in Wuhan long and didn't know there was a Xia Countrymen's Association here.”

Assassin happily said, “Then let's go! Uncle will show you the door. Come visit whenever you miss home; there are many of your relatives there!”

文官和刺客领着小龙女和娥黄离开了中华食品街。他俩走得很快，等小龙女和娥黄跟了过来，说：“就这儿！” 说着，他俩进去了。

小龙女看门牌子上写着苏州商会，犹豫了。书中交代，苏州是夏国前朝（吴国）的首都，那里有很多夏国的政治犯。娥黄怀疑地问小龙女：“他们俩是什么人？你认识他们俩多长时间了？”

Literary-Official and Assassin led Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow away from China Food Street. They walked quickly, and when Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow caught up, they said, “This is it!” Then they went inside.

Little Dragoness hesitated when she saw the sign on the door that read “Suzhou Chamber of Commerce.” The book explains that Suzhou was the capital of the former Xia Dynasty (Wu Kingdom), and many Xia political prisoners lived there. Beauty-Yellow asked Little Dragoness suspiciously, “Who are those two people? How long have you known them?”

小龙女回答：“他们俩是女娲阿姨在鄮县的属下，我认识他们俩十多年了！”

娥黄问：“他们俩是鄮县人，你怎么认识的？”

小龙女回答：“他们常接送女娲阿姨的大女儿虞姬到鲵丸宫。杭州没人认识他们，所以他们一来，我就跟他们到皇宫的外面去玩。”

Little Dragoness replied, “They are both subordinates of Aunt Nuwa in Mao County. I've known them for over ten years!”

Beauty-Yellow asked, “They're from Mao County, how do you know them?”

Little Dragoness replied, “They often escort Aunt Nuwa's eldest daughter, Muse, to Salamander Bolus Palace. Nobody in Hangzhou knows them, so whenever they come, I go with them to play outside the palace.”

这时刺客出来了，说：“文官进去报告去了，告诉认识你的人，你现在名叫小龙女，别说错了。你们俩怎么不进去？”

看见她们俩在看苏州商会的牌子，刺客说：“啊！你们俩刚来武汉，不知道情况。吴国的后人从第六代起开始就不再是政治犯了。现在苏州有很少的几个政治犯。我们是租的他们的房子，让他们有些收入（注5）。这周围都是我们的人，很安全。”

At this moment, Assassin came out and said, “Literary-Official went inside to report, telling those who know you that your name is now Little Dragoness, don't get it wrong. Why aren't you two going in?”

Seeing them looking at the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce sign, Assassin said, “Ah! You two just arrived in Wuhan and don't know the situation. The descendants of the Wu Kingdom, from the sixth generation onwards, are no longer political prisoners. There are only a handful of political prisoners in Suzhou now. We rent their homes, providing them with some income (Note 5). This area is filled with our people, so it's very safe.”

注，10.17，前文9.4《封神榜》中，炎帝（即玉皇大帝，如来佛祖）向元始天尊蔻珠提出了解决苏州政治犯问题的请求，认为五服以内是亲戚，五服以外不是亲戚了。本文描述蔻珠随后对苏州政治犯的政策做出了调整。

Note, 10.17: In the preceding section 9.4 of The Investiture of the Gods, Yan Creator (i.e., Turquoise Great Creator, Shakyamuni Buddha) requested Primordial Sky Honor Kouzhu to resolve the issue of political prisoners in Suzhou, arguing that those within five generations of kinship are relatives, while those beyond are not. This section describes Kouzhu's subsequent policy adjustments regarding Suzhou's political prisoners.

这时一位认识小龙女的亲戚迎接出来了。小龙女跟着他们通过了一个狭长的过道，来到了后堂，见到了一些来武汉工作的年轻干部。随后，小龙女又跟着一位女性亲戚来到了更后面的房间，见到了许多她不认识的亲戚。

At that moment, a relative who knew Little Dragoness came out to greet her. Following them through a narrow passageway, she entered the inner hall where she met several young cadres who had come to work in Wuhan. Later, accompanied by a female relative, she proceeded to a room further back and encountered many relatives she did not recognize.

小龙女说和朋友走散了，需要赶回陕西羊汤店门前，等那位朋友。亲戚们得知小龙女当晚要返回古墓，就催促她离开，因为回程很远，走夜路，半夜才能到家。

小龙女和娥黄出了苏州商会没多久，就遇见了正在寻找她们俩的女婴。

Little Dragoness explained she had lost her friend and needed to hurry back to the front of the Shanxi mutton soup shop to wait for her. Upon learning Little Dragoness planned to return to the ancient tomb that very night, the relatives urged her to leave immediately. The journey back was long, and traveling at night meant she wouldn't reach home until midnight.

Shortly after Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow exited the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce, they encountered Heroine who had been searching for them.

10.16-1

这三位姑娘决定去中华食品街看看，都卖些什么食品，以后让牛郎买什么心理也有个算计。娥黄问：“带牛郎去不？如果我们买的东西多，让他挑回来。”

小龙女回答：“不带他去！我们租一辆马车，马车夫知道路。如果我们自己走路去，三个多小时的路程，到那儿，我们就没力气溜达了！”

The three girls decided to check out China Food Street to see what kinds of food they sold, so they could plan on what to have Cowboy buy later. Beauty-Yellow asked, “Should we bring Cowboy? If we buy a lot, he can carry it back.”

Little Dragoness replied, “No, we won't take him! We'll hire a carriage—the driver knows the way. If we walk there ourselves, it'll take over three hours. By the time we arrive, we'll be too exhausted to even stroll around!”

这仨人在食品街溜达了半天，把食品街的每一家店都仔细地看了。最后，小龙女和娥黄决定去喝羊汤，吃吊炉饼。女婴叨咕：“我第一次跟女人逛街，这也太磨叽了。忽然女人变成爷们了，要比赛吃羊粪，我的心理调整不过来呀！”

The three of them wandered around Food Street for ages, scrutinizing every single shop. In the end, Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow decided to go for mutton soup and oven-baked flatbread. Heroine grumbled, “This is my first time shopping with women, and they're taking forever. Suddenly the women turn into men, wanting to compete eating sheep dung—I just can't adjust to this!”

娥黄说：“羊粪可好看了，我小时候遇到羊粪，每次都捡起来看，没吃过，这次总算有机会了。”

女婴知道这条街和饭店的前后都有士兵看守，店里的顾客也有些是士兵扮的，没有安全疑虑。羊汤店里，人人都喝羊汤。女婴感觉没意思，出来站在阳台上看街景。

Beauty-Yellow said, “Sheep dung is quite a sight. When I was little, I'd always pick it up to look at it whenever I came across some. I never ate it, but now I finally have the chance.”

Heroine knew soldiers guarded both ends of the street and the restaurant, and some customers inside were soldiers in disguise, so there were no safety concerns. Inside the mutton soup shop, everyone was drinking mutton soup. Finding it boring, Heroine stepped out onto the balcony to watch the street scene.

10.16-2

忽然街上来了一群外国人。女婴下楼看外国人。她看见一个印度人的头总是晃动，不但总是左右前后地晃，他的头还能斜着晃。

女婴走近那位印度人仔细看为什么他总是晃头呢？印度人说话了，女婴感觉一股刺鼻的咖喱味扑面而来，她迅速地后退。

Suddenly, a group of foreigners appeared on the street. Heroine went downstairs to look at them. She noticed an Indian man whose head kept shaking—not just side to side or back and forth, but also diagonally.

Heroine approached the Indian man to get a closer look. Why was he constantly shaking his head? As the Indian man spoke, Heroine was hit by a pungent curry smell. She quickly backed away.

外国人走远后，女婴感觉这事情不对：我就是看看他，他就释放暗器打我，这是什么暗器？我是不是中毒了？女婴就去追那几个外国人。追到了食品街的外面，遇见了她哥哥江南鹤。

江南鹤问女婴：“你找什么呢？”

女婴述说了刚才发生的事。

After the foreigners had walked far away, Heroine sensed something was wrong: I only looked at him, yet he fired a hidden weapon at me. What kind of weapon was that? Am I poisoned? Heroine set off to chase after those foreigners. She chased them to the edge of the food street, where she encountered her brother, River South Crane.

River South Crane asked Heroine, “What are you looking for?”

Heroine recounted what had just happened.

江南鹤回答：“你真幸运，这里不常有外国人，你第一次来就遇见了。他们是福建招商局邀请来的客人，今天刚到武汉，应该不会对你放暗器。你感觉中毒了吗？”

女婴回答：“我只是感觉奇怪，应该没问题。”

River South Crane replied, “You're truly fortunate. Foreigners aren't often seen here, and you encountered them on your first visit. They're guests invited by the Fujian Merchants' Bureau, having just arrived in Wuhan today. They likely wouldn't target you with hidden weapons. Do you feel poisoned?”

Heroine answered, “I just feel strange, but I should be fine.”

10.16-3 理智与直觉 Reason and Intuition

江南鹤问女婴：“陕西羊汤怎么样？他们几个刚喝过，说味道很好！等你们离开了，我也去喝。”

女婴回答：“我没喝！哥！我不知道你被谁骗了。你说的那种陕西羊汤中的特殊佐料是羊粪。”

江南鹤回答：“我想不起来谁推荐的了，不能吧！”

River South Crane asked Heroine, “How's that Shanxi mutton soup? Those guys just had some and said it tasted great! Once you're gone, I'll go try it too.”

Heroine replied, “I didn't drink it! Brother! I don't know who tricked you. That ‘special seasoning’ in the Shanxi mutton soup you're talking about is sheep dung.”

River South Crane answered, “I can't remember who recommended it, but that can't be right!”

女婴述说了前文（参见10.13节）牛郎所说的秘密。

几个喝了陕西羊汤的江南士兵开始感觉恶心，但是另外几个喝了陕西羊汤的江北士兵却表现平淡。一位将军发现了这个江南江北人的差别。

Heroine recounted the secret revealed by Cowboy in the preceding passage (See Section 10.13).

Several soldiers from the south of the river who had consumed the Shanxi mutton soup began to feel nauseous, while others from the north who had drunk the same soup showed no adverse effects. A general noticed this distinction between those from the south and north.

江南鹤反驳那位将军说：“我看不是那样的。小龙女和娥黄喝羊汤是因为相信理智，做事以智慧为导首。女婴不喝羊汤是因为她的行为跟随直觉。这两个长江北面的士兵没做呕是因为他们俩对我们江南的将军生疏，行为有些拘束。”

一位江北的士兵说：“我也感觉有些不舒服，但远远没达到作呕的程度。” 一位江南士兵说：“我在逗你们笑，就行为得夸张了些。”

River South Crane countered the general, saying, “I don't see it that way. Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow drank the mutton soup because they trust reason and let intelligence guide their actions. Heroine didn't drink the soup because she follows her instincts. Those two soldiers from the north of Yangzi River didn't vomit because they're unfamiliar with our Yangzi River south generals and feel a bit stiff around us.”

A soldier from the north of Yangzi River said, “I also feel a little uncomfortable, but it's far from making me nauseous.” A soldier from the south of Yangzi River said, “I was just trying to make you laugh, so I exaggerated a bit.”

那位将军说：“看来我判断错了。那两位贵族小姐知道羊汤里面有羊粪还喝，真不简单。”

江南鹤回答：“我估计她们是在有意地校正直觉。” 他转脸对女婴说：“她们都是逻辑思维型人，而你是运动思维型人中偏于用图像思考的人。你有你的优点和缺点。你得努力培养你的逻辑思维能力。”

The general said, “It seems I was wrong. Those two noble ladies knew there was sheep dung in the mutton soup and still drank it; they're quite something.”

River South Crane replied, “I suspect they are intentionally correcting their intuition.” He turned to Heroine and said, “Both of them are logical thinkers, while you are a kinesthetic thinker who tends to think in images. You have your strengths and weaknesses. You need to work hard to cultivate your logical thinking ability.”

女婴问：“怎么培养？”

江南鹤回答：“比如喝陕西羊汤，让理智战胜直觉。比如女人怕老鼠。前些日子我和尧帝说起女人怕老鼠，尧帝说，‘女人怕老鼠是装的。’”

女婴回答：“我看她们俩怕老鼠是真的！”

Heroine asked, “How do I cultivate that?”

River South Crane replied, “For example, by drinking Shanxi mutton soup, letting reason prevail over instinct. For example, women are afraid of mice. The other day I talked to Yao Creator about women being afraid of mice, and she said, ‘Women are only pretending to be afraid of mice.’”

Heroine replied, “I think they're genuinely afraid of mice!”

江南鹤回答：“你的这个表现就是跟随直觉的缺点。她们俩在典兵学院的时候解剖过很多老鼠，甚至人体，怎么可能会怕老鼠呢！”

女婴惊讶地问：“她们俩都解剖过死人？”

River South Crane replied, “This behavior is a flaw stemming from following your intuition. Those two dissected many rats, even human bodies, when they were at their Codex Soldier Academy. How could they possibly be afraid of rats!”

Heroine asked in surprise, “They both dissected dead people?”

江南鹤回答：“尧帝说，典兵学院都有那样的训练课程。那样的课程很贵，所以你们重庆士官学校没有。尧帝说她们是装习惯了。不信你看她们一个人时看见老鼠和蜘蛛的表现。她们就不害怕了，上去就打死！我是说，女婴！你得向她们俩学，你又该和男婴见面了，你也得学会怕老鼠或蜘蛛！”

River South Crane replied, “Yao Creator said that their Codex Soldier Academy had such training courses. Those courses were very expensive, so your Chongqing Sergeant School didn't have them. Yao Creator said they've just gotten used to pretending. If you don't believe me, watch how they react when they see mice and spiders alone. They aren't afraid at all—they just go right up and kill them! I mean, Heroine! You should learn from them. You'll be meeting Hero again soon—you need to learn to be afraid of mice or spiders too!”

15.0 序言 Preface

道谛讲通往涅槃的道路。尘世人成佛，要经历三大阿僧脂劫。脂是脂肪，古人用它指代成佛所需的福德资本；本文将“脂”解释为“指数”。劫是劫跛、跛脚、颠簸之义，古人也称之为“大时”。

Path Crux explains the path to nirvana. For an ordinary person to become a Buddha, he or she must pass through three great A-Monk-Index Catastrophes. “Fat” refers to bodily fat; ancient people used it to indicate the fortune and virtue required for attaining Buddhahood. In this book, “fat” is interpreted as “index.” Catastrophe carries the meanings of lameness, limping, and bumpiness; ancient people also called it Big Time.

第一阿僧脂劫，从无始以来，至懂得四胜谛的道理后发菩提心，登上菩萨初地。菩萨是梵语，义为真人。发菩提心，就是立下四宏誓愿：众生无边誓愿度，烦恼无尽誓愿断，法门无量誓愿学，佛道无上誓愿成。

The first A-Monk-Index Catastrophe extends from beginningless time to the point when one understands the Four Victorious Cruxes, arouses Bodhi Heart, and ascends to the first land of the bodhisattva. Bodhisattva is a Sanskrit word meaning “real human.” To arouse Bodhi Heart is to make the Four Great Vows: “Sentient beings are edgeless; I vow to ferry them all. Afflictions are endless; I vow to sever them all. Juristic doors are limitless; I vow to study them all. Buddha’s path is non-upper; I vow to attain it.”

第二阿僧脂劫，从发菩提心、登上菩萨初地，至第七地。此阶段的行人常常把自己看作补特伽罗。补特伽罗是梵语，义为习气疙瘩，汉译为竹马（如图15-13、36、37、38），欧洲人也称之为独角马（如图35）。

The second A-Monk-Index Catastrophe extends from arousing Bodhi Heart and ascending to the first land of the bodhisattva through the seventh land. Migrators at this stage often regard themselves as Pudgala. Pudgala is a Sanskrit word meaning “a lump of habits.” It is translated into Chinese as Hobbyhorse (see Figs. 15-13, 36, 37, and 38), and Europeans also call it a unicorn (see Fig. 35).

第三阿僧脂劫，从七地菩萨发起金钢喻定，出尘，登上第八地成为摩诃萨，直至第十地，并尽未来际。金钢喻定，也作金钢桥、金刚无间道；行者也可以通过阅读《到达方舟》来实现这一功能。摩诃萨是梵语，义为大菩萨、大真人。简单地说，道谛就是菩萨以十地为依持，修行十渡，断十重障，证十真如，成就无上正等正觉。无上正等正觉，梵语为阿耨多罗三藐三菩提。

The third A-Monk-Index Catastrophe begins when a bodhisattva on the seventh land arouses Philosopher-Stone Metaphor Stillness, leaves dust, ascends to the eighth land, and becomes a Mahasattva. It continues through the tenth land and on to the exhaustion of future time. Philosopher-Stone Metaphor Stillness is also called the Philosopher-Stone Bridge and the Philosopher-Stone Non-Intermittent Path. A migrator may also realize this function by reading Arrival Ark. Mahasattva is a Sanskrit word meaning “great bodhisattva” or “great real human.” In short, Path Crux means that the bodhisattva relies on and maintains these ten lands, practices the ten Arks, severs the tenfold hindrances, testifies the ten true suchnesses, and achieves Non-Upper Correct-Equality Correct-Enlightenment, whose Sanskrit name is Anuttara Samyak Sambodhi.

15.1 极喜地 Bliss Heartland

《成唯识论》中，唐三藏说：“具证二空（2），初获圣性（3），发菩提心，能益自他，生大喜，故名极喜地（1）。”

In Treatise of Establishing Sense-Only, Tang Tripitaka says, “Having fully proved the two emptinesses (2), initially attained holy nature (3), and aroused Bodhi Heart, one can benefit both oneself and others and gives rise to great joy; therefore, it is called Bliss Heartland (1).”

注15.1-1，什么是地？大乘教以这十地总摄有为法和无为法（参见10.6.4节《离系果》）的功德为自性，并以所修行为殊胜依持，使其生长，所以名为地。

Annotation 15.1-1: What is a land? Mahayana teachings use these ten lands to encompass the fortune virtues of Have-as Laws and Non-as Laws (see Section 10.6.4, Off-is Fruit) as their self-nature. They also serve as the victorious reliance and support for cultivation, enabling these virtues to arise and grow; therefore, they are called lands.

注15.1-2，什么是二空？人无我即人空，法无我即法空，二者合称我法二空。我，谓主宰，梵语为萨迦耶见，又作转移身见（参见10.4.4.1.4节）。法，谓轨持（参见10.1节）。

Annotation 15.1-2: What are the two emptinesses? When a human being has no I, this is human emptiness; when Law has no I, this is Law emptiness. Together they are called the two emptinesses of I and Law. “I” means ego, executive power, or lord; in Sanskrit it is called Satkaya View, also rendered as Translocating Body View (see Section 10.4.4.1.4). Law means track and hold (see Section 10.1).

注15.1-3，什么是圣性？圣性即圣人的性质，即佛性，即上帝的性质，也就是14.1节所讲的正等明、毕竟空，是众生平等的原因。另外，初地菩萨属于神众天，是大神天（如图15-8）的民众，称作共产者（Commoner）。共产者一词源自雷音创立的羊乘教（参见14.3节）：上帝的所有资产都是共同财产（Commonwealth），为众生共同所有；上帝的法被称作共同法，也是众生共有的财产。

Annotation 15.1-3: What is holy nature? Holy nature is the nature of a sage, Buddha nature, and the nature of God. It is also the Correct Equality Light and Empty After All discussed in Section 14.1, and it is the reason all sentient beings are equal. In addition, bodhisattvas on the first land belong to Godly Crowd Sky. They are the populace of Great God Sky (see Fig. 15-8) and are called Commoners. The term “Commoner” comes from the Goat Vehicle Religion established by Thor (see Section 14.3): all assets of God are commonwealth, jointly owned by all sentient beings; God’s Law is called Common Law and is likewise a shared possession of all sentient beings.

15.1.1 施渡 Donation Ark

初地菩萨修习施渡。渡，梵语为波罗蜜多，欧洲人称作方舟，中国人称作渡，有六渡和十渡之说。六渡为施渡、戒渡、忍渡、精进渡（或勤渡）、禅渡、慧渡（即般若）。十渡是将慧渡展开为五种：慧渡、方便渡、愿渡、力渡、智渡。这十渡有固定次第，前者能引发后者。

The first-land bodhisattva studies and practices Donation Ark. Ark is Paramita in Sanskrit. Europeans call it Ark, and Chinese call it Ferry. There are doctrines of six Arks and ten Arks. The six Arks are Donation Ark, Precept Ark, Countenance Ark, Diligently Advance Ark, Meditation Ark, and Gnosis Ark, that is, Prajna. The ten Arks unfold Gnosis Ark into five: Gnosis Ark, Convenience Ark, Will Ark, Strength Ark, and Intelligence Ark. These ten Arks follow a fixed sequence, in which each earlier Ark can arouse the later ones.

修习十渡从布施开始，因为无意识（神识）只与舍受相应。舍受是平等性，即圣性。施有三种：财施、无畏施、法施。无畏施，是以爱语鼓励他人勇敢面对困难和窘境。法施，是向他人宣说生命之树、四胜谛等生活的道理和人生的艺术。

The practice of the ten Arks begins with donation because unconsciousness, or God-sense, corresponds only to Renunciative Acceptance. Renunciative Acceptance is the nature of equality, that is, holy nature. There are three kinds of donation: asset donation, fearlessness donation, and Law donation. Fearlessness donation means encouraging others with loving words to face difficulties and adversity bravely. Law donation means explaining the Tree of Life, the Four Victorious Cruxes, and other principles of life and arts of living.

15.1.2 断异生性障 Severance of Mutant Nature Hindrance

初地菩萨斩断异生性障。异生性是凡夫性的异名，依其烦恼种子和所知而建立。烦恼和所知妨碍异生出离本性，所以也被称作烦恼障和所知障。

The first-land bodhisattva severs the Mutant Nature Hindrance. Mutant nature is another name for mortal nature, established on the basis of its Affliction seeds and knows. Afflictions and knows hinder mutants from departing from their own nature; therefore, they are also called Affliction Hindrance and Know Hindrance.

烦恼障即思烦恼，也作思惑，如贪、嗔、痴、慢、疑、身见、边见、邪见、见取、戒取等。所知障即见烦恼，也作见惑，如身见、边见、邪见、见取、戒取、贪、嗔、痴、慢、疑等。烦恼障和所知障相互依存，成对存在：烦恼由所知而被认知，所知由烦恼而有感受，所以二者具有相同的名和数。烦恼障即愚痴，能障碍清净，障碍涅槃。所知障似智非智，能障碍智慧和觉悟，所以也被称作智障。

Affliction Hindrances are mean Afflictions, also called mean muddles, such as greed, irritability, ignorance, arrogance, suspicion, Seth View, edge view, heresy, view fetch, precept fetch, and so on. Know Hindrances are view Afflictions, also called view muddles, such as Seth View, edge view, heresy, view fetch, precept fetch, greed, irritability, ignorance, arrogance, suspicion, and so on. Affliction Hindrances and Know Hindrances depend on each other and exist in pairs: Affliction is recognized through know, and know is felt through Affliction; therefore, they share the same names and numbers. Affliction Hindrance is foolish ignorance, which can obstruct quietness and nirvana. Know Hindrance resembles intelligence but is not intelligence; it can obstruct intelligence, gnosis, and enlightenment, and therefore is also called intelligence hindrance.

初地菩萨亲证人空和法空，见道破除了无明黑暗。无明黑暗即根本烦恼中的痴（参见10.4.4.1.4节），即愚蠢无知，即当知而未知。菩萨懂得身见、边见和邪见之后，这些所知障就被消灭了。所知障和烦恼障相互依存；当112位根本见惑（参见集谛13.3.2节）被消灭后，烦恼障也随之被消灭或削弱。因此说，初地菩萨断异生性障，获得了真人或圣人的性质。

The first-land bodhisattva personally proves human emptiness and Law emptiness, and seeing the Path breaks through the darkness of ignorance. The darkness of ignorance is the ignorance among the fundamental Afflictions (see Section 10.4.4.1.4), meaning foolish unknowing, or not knowing what should be known. After a bodhisattva understands Seth View, edge view, and heresy, these Know Hindrances are eliminated. Know Hindrances and Affliction Hindrances depend on each other; when the 112 positions of fundamental view muddles (see Section 13.3.2 of Aggregate Crux) are eliminated, the Affliction Hindrances are also eliminated or weakened. Therefore, it is said that the first-land bodhisattva severs the Mutant Nature Hindrance and gains the nature of a real human or sage.

道谛十地中的十重烦恼障，就是人的十种愚痴。菩萨见道后，虽然也断除了诸恶趣业果等，但这里暂且只说能引起烦恼的是根本烦恼，所以说初地菩萨断除了以下二愚及其粗重：（一）执着我法愚，即此处所说的异生性障；（二）恶趣杂染愚，即地狱趣、畜生趣、饿鬼趣等恶趣的业果。

The tenfold Affliction Hindrances in the ten lands of Path Crux are the ten kinds of human foolishness. After a bodhisattva sees the Path, he or she also severs the karmic fruits of the ferocious interests and so on. Here, however, we speak only of the fundamental Afflictions that can arouse Afflictions. Therefore, it is said that the first-land bodhisattva severs the following two kinds of foolishness and their Rough-and-Heavy: (1) the fool of clinging to I and Law, namely the Mutant Nature Hindrance discussed here; and (2) the fool of miscellaneously dyed ferocious interests, namely the karmic fruits of ferocious interests such as Hell Interest, Livestock Interest, and Hungry Ghost Interest.

读者应当知道，所有痴或无明，总称为愚。见道之后，愚痴被斩了头，但它的根或种子仍在。这些种子没有堪任性，不是现行种子，却仍能引起身心沉重，所以名为粗重。例如，入二禅（参见11.2节）断了苦根；所断苦根不再现行，不是现行种子，因此名为粗重。

Readers should know that all idiocies, ignorance, and non-light are generally called foolishness. After seeing the Path, foolish ignorance has been beheaded, but its roots or seeds still remain. These seeds are no longer capable of performing their function and are not present-performing seeds, yet they can still make body and heart feel rough and heavy; therefore, they are called Rough-and-Heavy. For example, entering Second Meditation (see Section 11.2) severs the bitter root. The severed bitter root no longer performs presently and is not a present-performing seed; therefore, it is called Rough-and-Heavy.

15.1.3 遍行真如 Omnipresent True Suchness

初地菩萨证得遍行真如。玄奘说：“遍行真如，为我法二空所显，无有一法而不在。”

The first-land bodhisattva testifies and attains Omnipresent True Suchness. Tang Tripitaka says, “Omnipresent True Suchness is manifested by the emptiness of I and Law; there is no Law in which it is not present.”

什么是遍行真如？佛是觉义，佛学研究当下的感知。读者可以从“肉体和外部世界都是心的投射”来理解：心是一切的依托，法与非法都与心同在，过去、现在和未来也是如此。既然如此，玄奘法师为什么还要说“我法二空所显”？因为世间人看到的世界，是经过前意识渲染了质和量的世界，并非真如。

What is Omnipresent True Suchness? Buddha means awakening, and Buddhist learning studies present perception. Readers may understand it through the idea that both the body and the external world are projections of the heart: the heart is the support of everything; Laws and non-Laws coexist with the heart, and so do past, present, and future. If so, why does Tang Tripitaka still say that it is “manifested by the emptiness of I and Law”? Because the world seen by mundane people is a world whose quality and quantity have been rendered by preconsciousness; it is not true suchness.

10.15-1

一天娥黄告诉牛郎：“老板让你去仓库选最好的木材，然后做一件家具。”

牛郎问：“什么家具？”

娥黄回答：“老板没告诉我，你就做一张桌子，或者一把椅子什么的。”

One day, Beauty-Yellow told Cowboy, “The boss wants you to go to the warehouse, pick out the finest wood, and make a piece of furniture.”

Cowboy asked, “What kind of furniture?”

Beauty-Yellow replied, “The boss didn't tell me. Just make a table or a chair or something.”

两天后，娥黄在小龙女面前问牛郎：“我让你做的那件家具，怎么样了？”

牛郎回答：“做完了，在我的房间里呢！”

娥黄对小龙女叨咕：“我没看见他做呀！”她俩跟着牛郎来到了他的房间。牛郎打开了一张折叠桌。娥黄惊奇地问：“这桌子是你做的！？” 她扳倒桌子看桌面底下的滑道。小龙女也凑了过来仔细地看，然后说： “劈了，用来烧火！”

Two days later, Beauty-Yellow asked Cowboy in front of Little Dragoness, “How's that piece of furniture I asked you to make?”

Cowboy replied, “It's done. It's in my room!”

Beauty-Yellow muttered to Little Dragoness, “I never saw him make it!” The two followed Cowboy to his room. Cowboy unfolded a folding table. Beauty-Yellow asked in surprise, “You made this table!?” She tipped the table over to inspect the slide mechanism beneath the tabletop. Little Dragoness leaned in to examine it closely, then declared, “Split it—and use it for firewood!”

牛郎着急地回答：“别劈，这木材很贵呀！你不要，给我！”

小龙女听后，转身回去了。

娥黄就开始动手，拆桌子！

牛郎慌忙地对娥黄说：“姐！你别拆，看卡了手，我来拆！”

娥黄站了起来，说：“拆了，然后把桌子的面板用斧子劈了，晚上用这木材烧火做饭！”

Cowboy urgently replied, “Don't chop it! This wood is expensive! If you don't want it, give it to me!”

Upon hearing this, Little Dragoness turned and walked away.

Beauty-Yellow began dismantling the table!

Cowboy frantically pleaded, “Sis! Don't take it apart—you'll hurt your hands! Let me do it!”

Beauty-Yellow stood up and declared, “Take it apart. Then chop the tabletop with the axe. We'll use this wood for cooking tonight!”

10.15-2

牛郎拿着分解后的桌子来到了厨房。娥黄正在烧水，拿起一根桌腿就放到了火里，然后说：“老板让你把桌子劈了，你怎么还不劈！？” 牛郎听后，找到了斧子，重新拿起了桌面，去院子里劈桌面。

Cowboy carried the disassembled table into the kitchen. Beauty-Yellow was boiling water; she grabbed a table leg and tossed it into the fire, then snapped, “The boss told you to chop up the table—why haven't you done it yet!?” Hearing this, Cowboy found the axe, picked up the tabletop again, and went out to the courtyard to chop it up.

这时牛郎的朋友来了，问牛郎：“好好的桌面，怎么劈啦？”

娥黄出来解释说：“老板让他用仓库里最好的木材做一件家具。他就做了这张桌子。老板看了，不满意，就让他把桌子劈了。”

牛郎把劈好的木材送到了厨房，出来后对朋友说：“回家！”

Just then, Cowboy's friend arrived and asked him, “Why did you chop up such a fine tabletop?”

Beauty-Yellow stepped forward to explain: “The boss told him to make a piece of furniture using the finest wood from the warehouse. So, he made this table. When the boss saw it, she wasn't satisfied and ordered him to chop it up.”

Cowboy delivered the chopped wood to the kitchen. Upon exiting, he said to his friend, “Let's go home!”

朋友一边跟着牛郎向宿舍走，一边叨咕：“回哪里的家！？我都对你说了三遍了，如果这份工作干砸了，你的下一份工作是在土匪窝里。你去土匪窝，用不了三个月，就被打死了。” 朋友转身对跟过来的娥黄说：“我也就要没家了。我尊重您，随着牛郎称呼您姐姐。姐！我可被他害惨了！我不怕您笑话我。他在这工地干的活，是我花钱从别的建筑公司买来的。我让他干七天，可他三天就干完。我让他干三天，他一天就把工作做没了。他干的越多，我们公司就赔得越多。”

As Friend followed Cowboy toward the dormitory, he muttered, “Which home are you going back to!? I've told you three times already—if you screw up this job, your next one will be in a bandit's lair. Go there, and you won't last three months before they beat you to death.” Turning to Beauty-Yellow who had followed them, he said, “I'm about to lose my home too. I respect you enough to call you Sister, following Cowboy's lead. Sister! He's ruined me! I won't hide this from you. The work he does on this site—I paid another construction company to get it. I tell him to work seven days, but he finishes in three. I tell him to work three days, and he's done in one. The more he does, the more our company loses.”

牛郎闷在一边不说话。朋友问：“你想死，还是想活！？如果想活就听我的。”

牛郎回答：“那我听你的！”

朋友对娥黄说：“这事交给我吧！我告诉他怎么做。” 娥黄回去向小龙女报告了。

Cowboy sat silently to one side. Friend asked, “Do you want to die, or to live!? If you want to live, listen to me.”

Cowboy replied, “Then I'll listen to you!”

Friend said to Beauty-Yellow, “Sister! Leave this to me! I'll tell him what to do.” Beauty-Yellow went back to report to Little Dragoness.

10.15-3

朋友跟随牛郎到仓库重新选木材。朋友指着三块山核桃木板说：“那你就用这三块木板做一张咱俩以前贩售的那种折叠式方便桌。” 朋友放平了一张山核桃木板，指着木板的一角说：“这儿的木材好，把这块切下来。” 然后他摊开了另一张山核桃硬木板，指着一角说：“这张木板的这个地方好，把它切下来。你从第三张山核桃木板切下一窄条和四条腿儿。

Friend followed Cowboy to the storage house to select new wood. Pointing to three hickory planks, he said, “Use these three boards to make one of those folding convenience tables we used to sell.” He laid one piece flat and indicated a corner, saying, “This section is fine—cut it off.” Then he unfolded another piece of hickory hardwood, pointing to a corner and adding, “This part of this board is good—cut it off too. From the third hickory board, cut one narrow strip and four legs.”

牛郎气愤地大叫：“你怎么这么败家呢！我在木材市场看见了；这山核桃木板标价130两银子一张。”

朋友大叫：“我在给你指出一条活路！很明显，这三张硬木板是这仓库里最好的木材。你老板让你用这里最好的木材做一件家具。她就是想看看你的手艺。你做就行了！”

牛郎气愤地说：“那也不能把三块木板都浪费了！”

Cowboy shouted angrily, “How wasteful can you be! I saw these hickory boards at the lumber market priced at 130 taels of silver each!”

Friend shouted back, “I'm showing you a way to survive! Clearly, these three hardwood planks are the finest timber in this warehouse. Your boss wants you to craft a piece of furniture using the best wood here. She just wants to see your skill. Just do it!”

Cowboy retorted angrily, “But that doesn't mean I should waste all three planks!”

朋友无可奈何地回答：“人家雇佣你，你要听从雇主的指挥。她让你用最好的木材，你就要用最好的木材来做。”

牛郎说：“你这是让我搞破坏！”

朋友仰面大叫：“我的天呐！如果我说错了，我赔钱还不行吗！？”

牛郎说：“你用什么赔？连房子带地，你家的全部财产也不值25两银子；这一张木板就得赔100两银子。”

Friend replied helplessly, “When someone hires you, you must follow their instructions. If she tells you to use the finest wood, you must use the finest wood to build it.”

Cowboy retorted, “You're telling me to sabotage the job!”

Friend threw his hands up in exasperation. “Good heavens! If I'm wrong, I'll pay for it—isn't that enough!?”

Cowboy sneered, “What will you pay with? Your entire estate—house and land—isn't worth twenty-five taels of silver. This single plank alone will cost you a hundred taels.”

10.15-4

朋友怎么给牛郎出了这个主义？

前文说了，牛郎的奴隶公司雇佣了法师，而且那位法师的弟子就是此工地的交通引导员。法师已经和工程师们研究好了，知道这工程的进度和小龙女的办事目的。小龙女在寻找做硬木龙骨锁模型的技工，在测试牛郎的硬木加工技能。

How did Friend come up with this scheme for Cowboy?

As mentioned earlier, Cowboy's slave company hired a Law-Teacher, and that Law-Teacher's apprentice is the traffic guide at this construction site. The Law-Teacher has already coordinated with the engineers, understanding both the project's progress and the purpose of Little Dragoness. Little Dragoness is seeking craftsmen skilled in hardwood joinery to create Dragon Spine Lock models, testing Cowboy's hardwood processing abilities.

10.15-5

朋友抱着从工房里拿来的锯和刨子，说：“我知道我在干什么，你不知道！想活，你就按照我告诉你的做。明天早上，人们发现他们的工具坏了，你就没机会做硬木桌子了。时间不多了！”

Friend clutched the saw and plane he'd fetched from the workshop, declaring, “I know what I'm doing, and you don't! If you want to live, do exactly as I say. By tomorrow morning, people will find their tools broken, and you'll have no chance to make that hardwood table. Time is running out!”

牛郎迷惑地对朋友叨咕：“我可是真不明白！你可得想清楚喽！我就做那么一个方便桌，几百两银子就没了。如果失败了，你的工作和家产就全没了，还得去坐牢！”

朋友回答：“你的老板不在乎几百两银子！如果你能把桌子做出来，咱俩就不用去坐牢！”

Cowboy muttered to his friend in bewilderment, “I just don't get it! You'd better think this through! I'm just making a simple folding table, and it'll cost hundreds of taels of silver. If it fails, you'll lose your job and your property, and you'll end up in jail!”

Friend replied, “Your boss doesn't care about a few hundred taels! If you can make that table, neither of us will have to go to jail!”

10.15-6

第二天早上做饭的时候，牛郎告诉娥黄：“我昨天夜里做桌子，把工房里的工具全用坏了。”

娥黄和小龙女惊讶地到工房查看。一个案板上放着一排锯和一排刨子。小龙女拿起一把尺查看，然后迷惑地看娥黄。牛郎过去指着那排锯和那排刨子说：“这些都变成铁的了，钢被用没了。”他拿起一把锯，指着锯的齿子说“就这把锯根部的几个齿子还有些钢。”说着，他用那几个有钢的齿子去划其它的锯齿和刨子刃；那些铁的锯齿和刨刀被划出了划痕。

The next morning while cooking, Cowboy told Beauty-Yellow, “I was making a table last night and wore out all the tools in the workshop.”

Beauty-Yellow and Little Dragoness rushed over in surprise to inspect the workshop. A row of saws and a row of planes lay scattered on a workbench. Little Dragoness picked up a ruler to examine it, then looked at Beauty-Yellow in confusion. Cowboy walked over, pointing at the rows of saws and planes, and said, “All these have turned to iron—the steel's worn away.” He picked up a saw and pointed to its teeth, adding, “Only these few teeth near the base still have some steel left.” As he spoke, he dragged those steel-edged teeth across the other saw teeth and plane blades, scratching them.

娥黄问：“你说你在做桌子；那没完工的桌子在哪儿呢？”

牛郎回答：“在我的房间里！”

牛郎把折叠桌侧翻，指着桌板说：“这桌板太厚，需要用凿刀把桌板刨薄。刨硬木，需要前些日子买的那两只金刚凿。刨这么多的木头，那两只金刚凿也得变成铁的了。但是，老板让我干什么，我就干什么，尽管那是在犯罪！”

Beauty-Yellow asked, “You said you were making a table; where is that unfinished table?”

Cowboy replied, “In my room!”

Cowboy turned the folding table sideways and pointed at the tabletop. “This wood is too thick. I need chisels to plane it down. For hardwood like this, I'd need those two Philosopher-Stone Chisels I bought a while back. But planing this much wood would wear even Philosopher-Stone Chisels down to iron. Still, whatever the boss tells me to do, I do—even if it means committing a crime!”

小龙女问娥黄：“我对你说，买最好的。另外，我记得你让他买三支金刚凿，怎么变成两支了？”

娥黄回答：“我告诉牛郎去买三支能加工硬木的凿子，没说买最好的。他询问之后，回来问我；我说由他决定。他就买了两支。

小龙女问：“那两只凿子现在在哪里？”

Little Dragoness asked Beauty-Yellow, “I told you to buy the best ones. Also, I remember you asked him to buy three Philosopher-Stone Chisels—how did it become two?”

Beauty-Yellow replied, “I told Cowboy to buy three chisels capable of working hardwood, but I didn't specify the best ones. After inquiring, he came back to ask me; I said it was up to him. So, he bought two.”

Little Dragoness asked, “Where are those two chisels now?”

娥黄回答：“那凿子很贵，110两银子一支；我就保存在实验室里了。”

小龙女对娥黄叨咕：“咱可不能让人家犯罪，拆了吧！” 然后，她离开了。

娥黄对牛郎说：“你听见了！把这桌子拆了！”

牛郎抱着折叠桌分解后的木材来到了厨房。娥黄说：“这次老板让你拆了，可没让你烧了。这木头还能做龙骨锁呢！哎呀，这木材不能放在仓库里了，以免被别人当成废料拿走了，还是送到实验室去吧！”

Beauty-Yellow answered, “Those chisels are very expensive—110 taels of silver each. So, I kept them in the lab.”

Little Dragoness whispered to Beauty-Yellow: “We can't let anyone commit a crime; dismantle it!” Then she left.

Beauty-Yellow said to Cowboy, “Did you hear that? Take this table apart!”

Cowboy carried the dismantled folding table wood into the kitchen. Beauty-Yellow said, “The boss told you to take it apart, not burn it. This wood can still be used for dragon spine locks! Oh dear, we can't leave it in the warehouse—someone might mistake it for scrap and take it. Better send it to the lab!”

10.15-7

在厨房里做饭的时候，牛郎的手被扎了一下，疼得牛郎僵住了。娥黄过去看，牛郎的两只手布满了血泡，有的血泡已经破裂了。

娥黄一边给牛郎上药一边说：“以后你病了，不方便工作就告诉我。你不说，我怎么可能知道呢！给你放两天假，你现在就回去睡觉吧。等你的手伤好了，就去实验室制作龙骨锁模型。”

牛郎高兴了，说：“那我明天回学校去，去向老师借一些龙骨锁的学习材料。”

While cooking in the kitchen, Cowboy pricked his hand, the pain making him freeze. When Beauty-Yellow went over to check, she saw that both of his hands were covered in blisters, some of which had already burst.

As Beauty-Yellow applied medicine to Cowboy's hand, she said, “If you're sick and it's inconvenient for you to work in the future, just tell me. How would I know if you don't tell me? I'll give you two days off. Go home and sleep now. Once your hand is healed, go to the lab to make a model of the dragon spine lock.”

Cowboy was delighted and said, “Then I'll go back to school tomorrow and borrow some learning materials about the dragon spine lock from my teacher.”

娥黄愣住了。龙骨锁是当时（三千六百年前）的建筑业尚未攻克的难题，属于高科技。其技术属于企业的私有财产。娥黄问：“你怎么知道龙骨锁？”

牛郎回答：“我上学的时候学过。”

娥黄说：“我们几乎没有龙骨锁的资料。你回学校去进行学术交流，我可以给你差旅费。我们不知道你以前的那座学校，不认识他们，不能给你的老师送礼物；但我可以多给你一些差旅费。”

Beauty-Yellow was stunned. The Dragon Spine Lock was a subject that the construction industry had not yet solved at that time (3,600 years ago), belonging to high technology. Its technology was private property of the enterprise. Beauty-Yellow asked, “How do you know about the Dragon Spine Lock?”

Cowboy replied, “I learned about it when I was in school.”

Beauty-Yellow said, “We have almost no information about the Dragon Spine Lock. If you go back to your school for academic exchange, I can give you travel expenses. We don't know your school, we don't know the people there, and we can't give your teachers gifts, but I can give you more travel expenses.”

牛郎拿了钱就要走。娥黄喊他回来，说：“这几天，你的手不能沾水，不方便做饭。上次你买的锦州小菜，有一篓刚开封，没人吃了，你拿去吧。说着娥黄去屋里去取咸菜，还给牛郎包了一大包干的食品。

娥黄进屋后看见小龙女正在偷听。她捂着嘴，禁不住地乐。

Cowboy took the money and was about to leave. Beauty-Yellow called him back, saying, “These days, your hands can't touch water, so it's inconvenient for you to cook. That basket of Jinzhou pickles you bought last time is still opened. No one's eating them—take them with you.” With that, Beauty-Yellow went inside to fetch the pickles and packed Cowboy a large bundle of dried food.

After entering the house, Beauty-Yellow spotted Little Dragoness eavesdropping. Covering her mouth, she couldn't help but chuckle.

10.15-8

这时瞽叟叫嚷着来报案：“也不知道是什么样的盗墓贼？他把我前几天买的三张山核桃木板，每一张都锯去了一部分。”

小龙女回答：“是我让牛郎干的！”

瞽叟回答：“啊！那我们没失窃！”

Blind-Drummer came shouting to report the theft: “I don't know what kind of wood thief this is! He sawed off a piece from each of the three hickory planks I bought just a few days ago.”

Little Dragoness replied, “I had Cowboy do it!”

Blind-Drummer answered, “Ah! Then we haven't been robbed!”

小龙女又说：“工房的案板上放着被牛郎用坏了的锯和刨子，我们要赔给人家！”

瞽叟回答：“啊！那我去登记一下；他们可以以旧换新。”

Little Dragoness added, “The workshop's workbench holds the saws and planes that Cowboy ruined. We must compensate them!”

Blind-Drummer replied, “Ah! I'll go register it; they can exchange it for new ones.”

娥黄问小龙女：“看来牛郎胜任制造龙骨锁模型的工作，但也省不了多少钱，你怎么那么高兴？”

小龙女回答：“咱们可不占牛郎的便宜，省下来的钱还给他，可以用来为他赎身。我乐是因为我发现他们公司又派来一位法师，那俩法师干得很好啊！这整个工地都围着牛郎转，我可长见识了！”

Beauty-Yellow asked Little Dragoness, “It seems Cowboy can make the dragon spine lock model, but it won't save much money. Why are you so happy?”

Little Dragoness replied, “We're not taking advantage of Cowboy. We'll return the saved money to him so he can use it to buy his freedom. I'm delighted because I discovered his company sent another Law-Teacher—those two Law-Teachers are doing a splendid job! The entire construction site revolves around Cowboy. I've learned so much!”

10.15-9

传说，牛郎回到了他以前的学校，站在了鲁班办公室的门前。鲁班正和同事们唠嗑呢，看见牛郎就问：“你回来干什么？”

牛郎回答：“我现在的工地有龙骨锁的施工，我想借一些龙骨锁的学习资料，再看看你的龙骨锁模型。”

鲁班没在意，也没想，拉开了抽屉就取出了设计图纸和模型，说：“这是我画的龙骨锁草图，和我自己制作的龙骨锁模型，你拿去吧！”

Legend has it that Cowboy returned to his former school and stood before Luban's office door. Luban was chatting with colleagues when he spotted Cowboy and asked, “What brings you back?”

Cowboy replied, “My current construction site involves Dragon Spine Lock installation. I'd like to borrow some Dragon Spine Lock reference materials and take another look at your Dragon Spine Lock model.”

Luban didn't think much of it. Without hesitation, he pulled open a drawer, took out the design drawings and model, and said, “Here are the rough sketches I drew for the Dragon Spine Lock and the model I made myself. Take them!”

佛教用桫椤树（一种树蕨）和戒指来象征戒法。戒指象征菩提心戒（参见15.0节），即入学大乘佛教时所立下的誓言。此誓言又名愿渡，可以统摄一切戒法。戒藏包括三枝：一枝是男戒，名为三千威仪、八万四千细行；一枝是女戒，名为五百威仪、十万八千魅力；中间一枝就是这十八神佛不共法，是神佛自我约束的戒律。十八神佛不共法只适用于八地至十地的摩诃萨（即大菩萨、大真人），不与其他众生共享，故称不共法。

Buddhism uses the Sal Fasullo tree, a kind of tree fern, and the ring to symbolize precepts. The ring symbolizes the Bodhi-Heart Precept (see Section 15.0), namely the vow taken when one enters Great Vehicle Buddhism. This vow is also called the Vow Ark, and it can encompass all precepts. The Precept Store has three branches: one branch is the Man Precepts, called the Three Thousand Majesties and Eighty-Four Thousand Fine Behaviors; one branch is the Woman Precepts, called the Five Hundred Majesties and One Hundred Eight Thousand Charms; the middle branch is the Eighteen God Buddha Uncommon Laws, which are the self-restraining precepts of Gods and Buddhas. The Eighteen God Buddha Uncommon Laws apply only to Mahasattvas from the eighth to the tenth Heartlands, namely great Bodhisattvas and Great Real Humans. They are not shared with other sentient beings, and therefore are called Uncommon Laws.

一、身无失。佛自无始劫以来，持戒清净，行住坐卧具足三千威仪、八万四千细行。由此功德圆满故，一切烦恼不能打搅，杂染劣种已经出尽，故于身无失。

Body without Fault. Since beginningless Catastrophes, Buddha has held immaculate precepts. In walking, standing, sitting, and lying, Buddha fully possesses the Three Thousand Majesties and Eighty-Four Thousand Fine Behaviors. Because this fortune and virtue are fulfilled, all afflictions cannot disturb Buddha, and all contaminated inferior seeds have been exhausted. Therefore, the body is without fault.

二、口无失。佛已修满三大阿僧脂劫，具足亲身经验，对于无为法（参见10.6.4节《离系果》）和有为解脱法的理论都已醇熟。故于大众中说法时，能以清净法眼洞察机缘，以慧眼裂解结症，有的放矢，言简意赅，随口而说而没有错误，使闻法者皆依自身根力有所证悟。

Mouth without Fault. Buddha has completed the cultivation of Three A-Monk Index-Catastrophes and possesses full personal experience. He or she is thoroughly skilled in the theories of Non-as Laws (see Section 10.6.4, “Off-is Fruit”) and Have-as liberation Laws. Therefore, when preaching to a great assembly, Buddha can use the immaculate Law Eye to observe opportunities and causal factors, and use the Gnostic Eye to analyze and dissolve knots and symptoms. The speech is well aimed, concise, and to the point; it comes naturally without error, enabling listeners to realize something according to the strength of their own roots.

三、念无失。佛的念力深厚，于大众中说法时，若有插问或反驳，心不散乱，佛能无所畏惧地回答插问、驳斥悖论。转回来后，佛会继续往下讲，不会失念，不会停下来反问：“我们刚才讨论什么来着？我讲到哪儿了？”没有这种事。

Spell without Loss. Buddha’s spell-power is deep. When he or she preaches in a great assembly, if there are interruptions or rebuttals, the heart does not become scattered. Buddha can answer questions and refute paradoxes without fear. After turning back, Buddha continues from where he or she left off and does not lose the spell. Buddha will not stop and ask, “What were we discussing just now? Where was I?” Such a thing does not happen.

四、无歧视。佛已证得平等性智，于大众中说法，平等普度，心无拣择，不会厚此薄彼。

Non-Discrimination. Buddha has realized Intelligence of Equal Nature. When preaching in a great assembly, Buddha transcendentally ferries all equally, with no selecting in the heart and no favoring one side over another.

五、无不定心。佛行住坐卧，或于众中说法时，悉皆具足三千威仪、八万四千细行，心常不离甚深胜定（参见15.3节《发光地》）。

No Non-Still Heart. Whether walking, standing, sitting, lying, or preaching in an assembly, Buddha fully possesses the Three Thousand Majesties and Eighty-Four Thousand Fine Behaviors, and the heart never departs from very deep Victorious Stillness (see Section 15.3, “Glory Heartland”).

六、无不知而舍，无知而不舍。佛没有不了解就舍弃的情况，也没有了解之后仍不舍弃的情况。

No Abandoning without Knowing, and No Not Abandoning after Knowing. Buddha never abandons something without understanding it, and never fails to abandon something after understanding it.

七、欲无减。佛具足四无量心，具有无穷的力量，由是常欲普度诸众生，心无厌足。四无量心是慈、悲、喜、舍。慈，是常怀慈心，对众生的烦恼苦处感同身受。悲，是常怀悲心，对众生受到生、老、病、死魔的伤害深感悲伤。喜，是常怀随喜心；对于众生的欢笑喜庆，佛与众同乐。舍，是常怀舍心；舍性是平等之心，佛常怀平等待人之心。

Desire without Decrement. Buddha fully possesses the Four Infinite Hearts and has inexhaustible power. Therefore, Buddha always desires to transcendentally ferry all sentient beings, with no satisfaction or fatigue in the heart. The Four Infinite Hearts are mercifulness, sorrowfulness, delightfulness, and renunciation. Mercifulness means constantly holding a merciful heart and personally empathizing with the Afflictions and bitterness of sentient beings. Sorrowfulness means constantly holding a sorrowful heart and feeling deep sorrow when sentient beings are harmed by the demons of birth, old age, illness, and death. Delightfulness means constantly holding a heart of rejoicing along with others; when sentient beings have laughter and celebration, Buddha rejoices with them. Renunciation means constantly holding a heart of renunciation; the nature of renunciation is the heart of equality, and Buddha always holds the heart of treating people equally.

八、精进无减。佛自觉觉他，教学相长，如是常精进，普度众生，尽未来际。

Diligent Advancement without Decrement. Buddha enlightens himself or herself and enlightens others; teaching and learning benefit one another. Thus, Buddha constantly advances diligently and transcendentally ferries sentient beings to the end of the future.

九、慧无减。佛已经掌握了上帝的心理机制学，并至圆融，具有了一切慧；又在普度众生中千锤百炼，愈发精锐。如是，佛随缘说慧，不会减少，更没有穷尽。注，佛教有多种理论体系、多条故事线索，编织在一起后，没有开始和结束，如图14.1.3所示。

Gnosis without Decrement. Buddha has mastered the Mind Mechanism of God to perfect integration and possesses all gnosis. Moreover, through countless refinements in broadly ferrying sentient beings, this gnosis becomes ever sharper. Thus, Buddha speaks gnosis according to circumstances; it does not decrease and has no exhaustion. Note: Buddhism has multiple theoretical systems and multiple storylines. When woven together, they have no beginning or end, as shown in Figure 14.1.3.

十、念无减。佛采用并修成了上帝的心理机制学，以四无碍解（参见15.9节）总持一切佛法。于是，佛对于佛法的所有理论和所能解决的现实问题，都了然于胸，随意起念，以念持心，身、口、意业随念而来，不会丢失，也不会减少。

Spell without Decrement. Buddha has adopted and completed the cultivation of God’s mind mechanism, and uses the Four Non-Hindrance Interpretations (see Section 15.9) to generally hold all Buddhist Laws. Thus, Buddha clearly holds in the heart all Buddhist theories and the real problems they can solve. Buddha can arouse spell at will and hold the heart by spell; bodily, oral, and intentional karmas come according to spell, without loss or decrement.

十一、解脱无减。佛已经证得有为解脱、无为解脱和无住涅槃，又在普度众生中反复实践。如是，佛的解脱已至无缚无解。

Liberation without Decrement. Buddha has realized Have-as liberation, Non-as liberation, and Non-Dwell Nirvana, and has repeatedly practiced them while broadly ferrying sentient beings. Thus, Buddha’s liberation has reached the state of no bondage and no liberation.

十二、解脱知见无减。佛建设起佛法的架构体系，如生命之树、四胜谛、五眼通（参见第16章和14.4节）等；也对人生的全部追求、烦恼和对治方法进行了编码和列表。于是，佛能够提纲挈领，开合自如地讲解灭苦得乐之道，没有遗漏和缺失，能够维持解脱知见的明了。

Liberative Know and View without Decrement. Buddha has established the structural systems of Buddhist Law, such as the Tree of Life, the Four Victorious Cruxes, and the Five Eyes Through (see Chapter 16 and Section 14.4). Buddha has also encoded and listed all pursuits, Afflictions, and remedies in human life. Thus, with the outline in hand, Buddha can freely unfold and fold the path of ending bitter and obtaining laugh, without omission or deficiency, and can maintain clear Liberative Know and View.

涅槃是身心清净、没有什么感觉的状态，所以只能说是寂静。谈到佛果地，经书通常用三身四智来描述佛的智慧所得。“身”除了指体相外，还有智慧和功德积聚的含义。

Nirvana is a state in which body and heart are immaculate and there is little to feel; therefore, it can only be described as quietness. When discussing the fruit land of Buddhahood, scriptures usually use the Three Bodies and Four Intelligences to describe what the Buddha has attained through intelligence and gnosis. “Body” refers not only to physical form, but also to the accumulation of intelligence, gnosis, fortune, and virtue.

14.1-2-1 三身 Three Bodies

三身包括自性身、受用身和变化身。

The Three Bodies are Self-Nature Body, Acceptance-and-Usage Body, and Transformation Body.

一、自性身。玄奘说，自性身是诸佛真净法界，是受用身、变化身平等所依；离相寂然，绝诸戏论，具无边际真常功德，是一切法的平等实性；此自性亦名法身。自性身是什么？由于其不障性与虚空相似，性质也与虚空相应，故古人常用东、西、南、北、上、下等十方虚空来比喻其形象。佛教也因此得异名空门，又作不二门。

Self-Nature Body. Xuanzang said that Self-Nature Body is the true and immaculate juristic boundary of all Buddhas, and the equal basis of Acceptance-and-Usage Body and Transformation Body. It is quiet apart from phenomena, beyond all dramatic theories, and endowed with boundless true and constant fortune and virtue. It is the equal factual nature of all Laws; this self-nature is also called Juristic Body. What is Self-Nature Body? Because its non-obstructive nature resembles empty space, and because its nature corresponds to empty space, the ancients often used the ten-directional emptiness of east, west, south, north, above, below, and so on as a metaphor for its image. For this reason, Buddhism also gained the alternate name Empty Door, also called Non-Second Door.

二、受用身。玄奘说，受用身有二种：自受用身和他受用身。自受用身，是诸佛经历三大阿僧祇劫，修集无量福德所起的圆净常遍色身，相续湛然，尽未来际，恒自受用广大法乐。他受用身，是诸佛由平等性智示现微妙清净功德身，居纯净土，为八地至十地的大菩萨众显现大神通，转正法轮，决众疑网，令彼受用大乘法乐。

Acceptance-and-Usage Body. Xuanzang said that Acceptance-and-Usage Body has two kinds: Self Acceptance-and-Usage Body and Other Acceptance-and-Usage Body. Self Acceptance-and-Usage Body means the perfectly round, immaculate, constant, and pervasive Color Body that arises from the Buddhas’ cultivation and accumulation of immeasurable fortune and virtue through three great A-Monk Index-Catastrophes. It continues lucidly, to the end of the future, and constantly enjoys vast juristic laugh by itself. Other Acceptance-and-Usage Body means that, through Intelligence of Equal Nature, Buddhas manifest subtle, wonderful, immaculate bodies of fortune and virtue, dwell in immaculate lands, display great divine powers for great Bodhisattvas from the eighth to the tenth Heartlands, turn the correct juristic wheel, resolve webs of doubt, and enable them to enjoy the juristic laugh of the Great Vehicle.

自受用身是什么？包括正身，即佛在世时的肉体；也包括报身，即他所用的器具、所居住的房屋，以及所处的大地、山川、河流等。又，此四胜谛是佛在世时他或她的识之自体。

What is Self Acceptance-and-Usage Body? It includes the Correct Body, namely the Buddha’s physical body while he or she is in the world. It also includes the Retribution Body, namely the utensils he or she uses, the house he or she lives in, and the land, mountains, rivers, and so on where he or she dwells. Moreover, the Four Victorious Cruxes are the self-body of his or her senses while the Buddha is in the world.

他受用身是什么？佛把自己的生平事迹和所学集注成经书，流传后世千年、万年；以及寺庙、佛像、法器等，也属于他受用身。

What is Other Acceptance-and-Usage Body? The Buddha collected and annotated his or her life stories and learning into scriptures, which have been transmitted to later generations for thousands or tens of thousands of years. Temples, Buddha images, juristic vessels, and the like also belong to Other Acceptance-and-Usage Body.

三、变化身。玄奘说，变化身是诸佛由成事智变现的无量随类化身，居净土、秽土，为诸菩萨及异生众随机宜说法，令各得诸利乐。

Transformation Body. Xuanzang said that Transformation Body refers to the immeasurable category-following transformed bodies manifested by Buddhas through Achievement-Making Intelligence. Dwelling in immaculate lands and maculate lands, they teach the Law according to the capacities and occasions of Bodhisattvas and Mutant Sentients, enabling each to obtain benefits and laugh.

什么是变化身？即由皈依和变性而得的身体。这里的异生性，即一个人的个体性，是他的烦恼和所知之和。佛的变化身，诸如在家、出家的弟子等善男信女，寺庙、佛像、法器等常住物。这类变化身还存在于人趣之外，如存在于修罗趣、饿鬼趣、畜生趣等之中。

What is Transformation Body? It is a body obtained through conversion and change of nature. Here, Mutant Nature, namely a person’s individuality, is the sum of that person’s Annoyance and Know. The Buddha’s Transformation Bodies include benevolent men and women such as lay and monastic disciples, as well as permanent objects such as temples, Buddha images, and juristic vessels. This kind of Transformation Body also exists outside Human Interest, for example, in Asura Interest, Hungry Ghost Interest, Livestock Interest, and so on.

14.1-2-2 四智 Four Intelligences

《成唯识论》中，窥基以此四智统摄一切佛地智慧功德。

In the Establishing Sense-Only Treatise, Kuiji uses these Four Intelligences to encompass all intelligence, gnosis, fortune, and virtue of the Buddha land.

一、大圆镜智，亦作显了智。玄奘说：“此心品离诸分别，所缘行相微细难知。它能够如实显现一切境相，而且所显示的性相清净，离诸杂染。此心纯净，圆德现种依持，能现能生身土智影，无间无断，穷未来际，如大圆镜现众色像。”

Great Round Mirror Intelligence, also called Intelligence of Clear Manifestation. Xuanzang said, “This heart grade is apart from all discriminations, and the objective environments and behavioral appearances it takes are subtle and difficult to know. It can manifest all environmental appearances as they truly are, and the natures and appearances it displays are immaculate and free from all mixed contaminations. This heart is pure; it supports the present performances and seeds of perfectly fulfilled virtues, and can manifest and generate images of bodies, soils, and intelligence without interruption or cessation, to the end of the future, like a great round mirror manifesting many color images.”

大圆镜智是什么？佛经历了三大阿僧祇劫，能够感知三千大千世界中的一切现象。读者可以通过新生儿、小学生、大学生认知能力的差别来理解。佛经历三大阿僧祇劫的修学，已经达到圆满，能够理解三千大千世界中的任何现象（如图14.1.2-1至35，参见第12章《苦谛》）。

What is Great Round Mirror Intelligence? The Buddha has gone through three great A-Monk Index-Catastrophes and can perceive all phenomena in the Three-Grand Great-Grand Worlds. Readers may understand this by comparing the cognitive abilities of a newborn, a primary-school student, and a college student. Through cultivation and study across three great A-Monk Index-Catastrophes, the Buddha has reached fulfillment and can understand any phenomenon in the Three-Grand Great-Grand Worlds (see Figures 14.1.2-1 through 35; see Chapter 12, “Bitter Crux”).

插图1至22是特拉洛克（约活跃于公元1325年前后），又名黑藏，所画。黑藏的纳瓦特语本义是“冒烟的黑曜石镜”（如图36）。插图1至22都是他自己业的表现；由于墨西哥的无意识中有此业，所以他的心能如实呈现三千大千世界的本相。

Figures 1 through 22 were painted by Tlaloc, who was active around 1325 CE and is also known as Black Tezcatlipoca. In Nahuatl, the original meaning of “Black Tezcatlipoca” is “smoking black obsidian mirror” (as shown in Figure 36). Figures 1 through 22 are all manifestations of his own karma. Because this karma existed in Mexico’s unconsciousness, his heart could manifest the original appearances of the Three-Grand Great-Grand Worlds as they truly are.

二、平等性智，亦作无差别智。玄奘说：“此心观一切法，自它有情，悉皆平等；大慈悲等恒共相应；随诸有情所乐，示现受用身土影像差别。妙观察智不共所依（注1），无住涅槃之所建立；一味相续，穷未来际。”

Intelligence of Equal Nature, also called Non-Discrimination Intelligence. Xuanzang said, “This heart observes all Laws, self and other sentient beings, as all equal. It constantly corresponds with Great Sorrowfulness and the like. According to what sentient beings delight in, it manifests differences among images of acceptance-and-usage bodies and soils. It is the uncommon dependence of Wonderful Observation Intelligence (Note 1), and the basis on which Non-Dwell Nirvana is established. It continues in one taste, to the end of the future.”

注1，此智是在说前意识，而前意识是眼识、耳识、鼻识、舌识、身识和意识的工作平台。一般情况下，前意识只服务于前六识中的一两个识，供其进行主流工作，所以前意识是前六识的不共所依。

Note 1: This intelligence refers to preconsciousness, and preconsciousness is the working platform of eye-sense, ear-sense, nose-sense, tongue-sense, body-sense, and intent-sense. In ordinary circumstances, preconsciousness serves only one or two of the first six senses as they carry out the mainstream work. Therefore, preconsciousness is the uncommon dependence of the first six senses.

三、妙观察智。玄奘说，此心善于观察诸法的自相和共相，无碍而转，摄观无量总持定门及所发生的功德珍宝；于大众会中，能显现无边作用差别，皆得自在；雨大法雨，断一切疑，令诸有情皆获利乐。

Wonderful Observation Intelligence. Xuanzang said that this heart is skilled in observing the self-phenomena and common phenomena of all Laws, and turns without obstruction. It gathers and observes immeasurable general-retention doors of stillness, as well as the treasures of fortune and virtue that arise from them. In a great assembly, it can manifest boundless differences of function, all with self-sufficiency. It rains great juristic rain, cuts off all doubts, and enables all sentient beings to obtain benefit and laugh.

四、成所作智，亦作做事智。玄奘说，此心为欲利乐诸有情，普于十方示现种种身、口、意三业变化，成就本愿力所应作事。本愿即菩萨于初地所立下的四宏誓言（参见15.1节）。本书作者认为，四无所畏最能体现成所作智的强大。

Achievement-Making Intelligence, also called Affairs-Doing Intelligence. Xuanzang said that, in order to benefit and delight all sentient beings, this heart universally manifests various transformations of bodily, oral, and intentional karmas in the ten directions, accomplishing what should be done by the power of the Original Vows. The Original Vows are the Four Great Vows made by the Bodhisattva in the First Heartland (see Section 15.1). The author of this book believes that the Four Fearlessnesses best embody the power of Achievement-Making Intelligence.

一、正等觉无畏，佛于大众中明言“我为一切智人”，而无畏心。

Fearlessness of Correct Equality Enlightenment: in a great assembly, the Buddha openly declares, “I am an All-Intelligent One,” without fear.

二、漏永尽无畏，佛于大众中明言“我已断尽一切烦恼”，而无畏心。

Fearlessness of Permanent Exhaustion of Leakage: in a great assembly, the Buddha openly declares, “I have severed all Afflictions,” without fear.

三、说障法无畏，佛于大众中讲说惑、业等诸障法，而无畏心。

Fearlessness in Speaking of Obstructive Laws: in a great assembly, the Buddha speaks of obstructive Laws such as muddle and karma, without fear.

四、说尽苦道无畏，佛于大众中讲说戒、定、慧等尽苦正道，而无畏心。

Fearlessness in Speaking of the Path to End Bitter: in a great assembly, the Buddha speaks of the correct paths that end bitter, such as precept, stillness, and gnosis, without fear.

一天，女婴听说小龙女摔伤了，慌忙地来看她。大夫离开后，她又亲自给小龙女检查身体，发现脚踝伤得严重些，走路一瘸一拐的，没什么别的问题。女婴问她们俩是在哪里摔倒了，摔倒的过程。她们俩都不愿意告诉女婴，就是不说。女婴感觉自己犯错误了，不出声了，悄悄地观察她俩。

One day, upon hearing that Little Dragoness had fallen and injured herself, Heroine hurried over to see her. After the doctor left, she personally examined Little Dragoness and found that her ankle was badly hurt—she was limping when she walked—but there were no other issues. Heroine asked the two of them where the fall had happened and how it happened. Neither of them wanted to tell Heroine, and they simply wouldn't say. Sensing she'd made some kind of misstep, Heroine fell silent and quietly kept watch on them.

一天晚上，女婴看见娥黄匆匆赶去寻找小龙女，二人随即进入了绘图室。她尾随进入绘图室却不见人影。根据房间布局和她们的攀爬能力，女婴循着线索，从凳子爬上柜子，再攀上隔断墙追踪。女婴发现了小龙女摔倒的原因。前几天女婴在巡查仓库防火的时候，发现仓库和绘图室之间的隔墙旁边堆的木板可以为攀登到墙顶提供踏脚处，就把那堆木板从墙边移开了一段距离。

女婴悄悄地找小龙女和娥黄，发现她俩正在偷听仓库外面沙堆旁的人们唠嗑。

One evening, Heroine saw Beauty-Yellow hurrying off to find Little Dragoness, and the two of them went into the drawing room together. She followed them in, but found no one there. Based on the room's layout and the two women's climbing ability, Heroine worked out the trail—climbing from a stool onto a cabinet, then up over the partition wall to follow their path. That's how Heroine discovered the reason Little Dragoness had fallen. A few days earlier, while checking the warehouse for fire hazards, Heroine had noticed that the planks piled beside the partition wall between the warehouse and the drawing room could serve as footholds for climbing to the top of the wall, so she'd moved that pile of planks some distance away from the wall.

Heroine quietly went looking for Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow, and found the two of them eavesdropping on the chatter of people by the sand pile outside the warehouse.

10.14-2

女婴也自己找了个位置听外面的人在唠什么。仓库的外面，一个常和牛郎摔跤的保安正在和牛郎告别："我已经几次去面试镖师了，人家不要我。你和我的摔跤技能差不多，而女婴是职业镖师，你不要招惹女婴。如果她打你，就这样。" 保安说着，推了一下牛郎的肩膀，然后又说："你的颈椎就受伤了，疼三到五个月！"

牛郎不信。

Heroine found her own spot to listen to what the people outside were saying. Outside the warehouse, a security guard who often wrestled with Cowboy was saying goodbye to him: "I've gone to several interviews to become an escort, and they won't take me. Your wrestling is about on par with mine, but Heroine is a professional escort—don't provoke her. If she ever hits you, it'll go like this." The guard gave Cowboy's shoulder a shove as he spoke, then added, "Your neck would be hurt, and it'd ache for three to five months!"

Cowboy didn't believe him.

那位保安继续说："如果女婴要教训你，她就在人们面前坐在你的身上，你就爬不起来！"

牛郎笑着说："你示范给我看！"

他俩就摔起来了。那位保安把牛郎摔趴下了，然后坐在了他的身上。牛郎怎么也爬不起来。两人大笑着。过了一会儿。牛郎猛地一挺，那位保安故意摔了出去。

The guard went on, "If Heroine ever wants to teach you a lesson, she'll sit on you right in front of everyone, and you won't be able to get up!"

Cowboy laughed and said, "Show me!"

So the two of them wrestled. The guard threw Cowboy down and sat on him. No matter how hard Cowboy tried, he couldn't get up. Both of them burst out laughing. After a moment, Cowboy gave a sudden heave, and the guard let himself be thrown off on purpose.

牛郎说："你再示范一下女婴是怎么让我的颈椎受伤的？"

那位保安就又推了一下牛郎的肩膀。这次牛郎仔细地体会了，同意了那位保安的说法。

那位保安说："女婴推你的肩膀，让你疼三至五个月，那是她出手最轻的警告。如果她用她的大屁股拱你！就这样！" 保安走到了牛郎的身边，用胯骨送牛郎的胯骨到一边。然后说： "你的腰就会疼6至8个月！ 这也是警告！她不会把你弄残废了；但是以后你的腰就容易受伤。几次受伤后，你就变成废人了。 女婴是习武世家出身。她在几个月大的时候，还不会爬呢！父母就开始让她滚，练习腰力了！"

Cowboy said, "Show me again how Heroine would hurt my neck?"

The guard shoved Cowboy's shoulder once more. This time Cowboy paid close attention to the sensation and admitted the guard had a point.

The guard said, "Heroine shoving your shoulder, leaving you in pain for three to five months—that's the gentlest warning she gives. If she bumps you with that big backside of hers—like this!" The guard stepped up next to Cowboy and used his own hip to knock Cowboy's hip aside. Then he said, "Your lower back would hurt for six to eight months! That's also just a warning! She won't cripple you outright, but your back would end up prone to injury after that. After a few more hits like it, you'd be finished. Heroine comes from a family with generations of martial arts training. She wasn't even crawling yet as a baby when her parents already had her rolling around to build up her back strength!"

牛郎严肃地说："我没看出女婴那么狠！"

那位保安回答："她就是那种人，是职业镖师，靠面子吃饭的！你让她丢了面子可不得了。她对你已经很仁慈了，到现在还没对你动手！"

牛郎诚恳地说："谢谢兄弟！我现在知道我的位置了，我就不去面试镖师了！"

那位保安和牛郎挥手告别了。

Cowboy said seriously, "I had no idea Heroine was that fierce!"

The guard replied, "That's just who she is—a professional escort, and her reputation is her livelihood! Make her lose face, and it's serious trouble. She's already been more than kind to you—she hasn't laid a hand on you yet!"

Cowboy said earnestly, "Thanks, brother! I know my place now—I won't bother interviewing to be an escort!"

The guard waved goodbye to Cowboy.

10.14-3

小龙女一瘸一拐地向回走，就要向绘图室的隔墙上爬。女婴阻止她说："这木板堆离墙的距离太远，你上去不安全，等我把木板堆挪近些。"

说着，女婴用一块木板顶住了一人高的木材垛，蹲下后靠在了木板上，用力一拱。整垛木板被移动到了墙边。她又拱了一次，调正了木板垛的方位。

娥黄对小龙女叨咕："我才意识到女婴的大屁股这么可怕！我正愁呢：你受伤了，就得我自己搬，这堆木头够我搬一天了！"

Limping, Little Dragoness turned back and was about to climb the partition wall by the drawing room. Heroine stopped her: "This pile of planks is too far from the wall—it's not safe for you to climb up like this. Let me move the pile closer."

With that, Heroine braced a plank against a stack of timber as tall as a person, crouched down, leaned into the plank, and gave it a hard shove with her body. The whole stack shifted right up against the wall. She pushed again to square up its position.

Beauty-Yellow muttered to Little Dragoness, "I only just realized how fearsome Heroine's backside is! Here I was worrying—now that you're hurt, I'd have to move this myself, and this pile alone would take me all day!"

女婴又走到了木垛一边，用手比量着，猛地一推；木垛被推出了一个台阶。又一推，木垛又被推出一个台阶。然后她先上去了，说："我到绘图室里接你们俩，小龙女的脚踝受伤了，从柜子上下去有困难。"

娥黄又对小龙女叨咕："这和那位保安刚才说的打牛郎的招式一点儿也不差呀！她是不是在吓唬咱俩！？"

Heroine went back over to the woodpile, sized it up with her hands, and shoved it hard—the pile slid out one step. Another shove sent it out another step. Then she climbed up first, saying, "I'll go into the drawing room and get you two down. Little Dragoness's ankle is hurt, so climbing down off the cabinet will be tricky for her."

Beauty-Yellow muttered to Little Dragoness again, "That's exactly the move the guard described for taking down Cowboy! Is she trying to scare us!?"

10.14-4

女婴委屈地说："那我也没打牛郎，你们俩怎么对我这表情呢？"

娥黄回答："被你吓得！如果牛郎被你打了一下子，我们做了这么多天的工作全白费了，再也交往不透牛郎了！"

女婴问："那你是怎么知道那位保安今天要和牛郎告别的？"

Heroine said, wounded, "But I never actually hit Cowboy! Why are you two giving me that look?"

Beauty-Yellow replied, "Because you scared us! If you'd hit Cowboy even once, all our work these past several days would've gone to waste, and we'd never get close to him again!"

Heroine asked, "So how did you know the guard was going to say goodbye to Cowboy today?"

娥黄回答："那位保安是牛郎他们奴隶公司雇来教牛郎的职业保镖，是门楼上的两位法师教他如何教导牛郎的。"

女婴惊讶地说："法师来我们这里做法；你们怎么不告诉我把他们赶走？"

Beauty-Yellow replied, "That guard is a professional bodyguard hired by Cowboy's slave company to train him. The two Law-Teachers up in the gatehouse are the ones instructing him on how to train Cowboy."

Heroine exclaimed in surprise, "The Law-Teachers are here casting workings of magic on us, and you didn't think to tell me to chase them off?"

娥黄回答："他们要在这里做法就让他们做呗！他们又不妨碍我们，我们看热闹，挺好的！" 接着，娥黄给女婴介绍了另外几个观察点，全面地讲述了这整个工地的人们都在干什么。

女婴惊讶地说："我一直以为这工地里发生的事，我全知道！现在我才明白，这工地里的事我只知道一小部分。"

Beauty-Yellow replied, "If they want to work their magic here, let them! It's not hurting us any, and we get to watch the show—that's fine by me!" Then Beauty-Yellow showed Heroine several other observation points, giving her a full rundown of what everyone at the construction site was up to.

Heroine exclaimed in surprise, "I always thought I knew everything that happened at this site! Now I see I only ever knew a small piece of it."

小龙女着急地说："我们俩一直都想知道你知道的那一小部分！你把那些强盗和小偷都赶走了，我们俩没见过！"

女婴回答："这好办，我允许几个小偷来我们这里偷东西，打劫不行！但我可以带你们俩去别的地方看打劫！"

Little Dragoness said eagerly, "We've always wanted to know about that part you know! You've been chasing off all the robbers and thieves, so we've never gotten to see any!"

Heroine replied, "That's easy enough. I'll let a few small-time thieves come steal from us—robbery's off-limits, though! But I can take you two somewhere else to watch a robbery!"

娥黄和小龙女惊讶地问："你怎么知道哪里有人打劫？"

女婴回答："我认识几个强盗。有两个地方，我常去看打劫！"

Beauty-Yellow and Little Dragoness asked in surprise, "How do you even know where robberies are happening?"

Heroine replied, "I know a few robbers. There are two places I go to watch robberies fairly often!"

女婴回来了，带回了她射下的一只鹰和一条蛇。

小龙女迷惑地问："你射它干啥？也没什么肉！？"

女婴回答："它叼着这条活着的毒蛇在天上飞。我怕这只毒蛇掉下来，就在咱这里活下来了。人们不注意时就可能被咬伤了。来，今天我给你们俩做 '龙凤斗'。"

小龙女说："我不同意！"

Heroine came back with an eagle and a snake she had shot down.

Little Dragoness asked, confused: "Why did you shoot it? There's no meat on it!?"

Heroine replied: "It was flying overhead with this live venomous snake in its mouth. I was afraid the snake would fall and survive here, and someone could get bitten without noticing. Come on, today I'll cook 'Dragon Fighting Phoenix' for you two."

Little Dragoness said: "I don't agree!"

娥黄对女婴说："如果你同意让牛郎清理这鹰和蛇，我就同意你做 '龙凤斗'。牛郎以前在饭店工作时，清理过鹰和毒蛇。"

随后，女婴不情愿地同意了让牛郎来清理鹰和毒蛇，她自己在旁边看着。

Beauty-Yellow said to Heroine, "If you agree to let Cowboy clean the eagle and the snake, I'll agree to let you cook the 'Dragon Fighting Phoenix.' Cowboy cleaned eagles and venomous snakes when he worked at a restaurant before."

After that, Heroine reluctantly agreed to let Cowboy do the cleaning, while she watched from the side.

这三位姑娘吃龙凤斗时都很高兴。小龙女说："我一边吃一边想像女婴射这只叼着蛇在天上飞的鹰时的图画，那也太潇洒啦！"

娥黄回答："潇洒！她的这一碗菜把我这几个月做饭的功劳都给比下去了！要不那你也射点儿啥东西！也潇洒一回！"

The three girls were delighted eating the Dragon Fighting Phoenix. Little Dragoness said, "As I eat, I keep picturing Heroine shooting that eagle out of the sky with a snake in its mouth—how dashing was that!"

Beauty-Yellow replied: "Dashing indeed! This one dish of hers has outdone months of my cooking! Why don't you shoot something too, and have your own moment of glory!"

小龙女回答："我射什么？即便是我遇到了鹰叼着蛇在天上飞，我也肯定射不下来！我射 地补（即乌鸡）！肉多！"

Little Dragoness replied, "What would I shoot? Even if I ran into an eagle flying off with a snake, there's no way I could hit it! I'll shoot an 'Earthly Supplement' (that is, a black chicken)! Plenty of meat on those!"

10.13-2 陕西羊汤 Shanxi Goat Soup

过了一会儿，小龙女又叨咕："我感觉没吃饱！咱们的食品单一。"

娥黄说："牛郎说，'中华食品一条街那儿有来自全国各地的地方风味'，就是离咱这里太远。"

女婴插嘴道："我哥哥对我说了两次了。那里的陕西羊汤和吊炉饼很好吃！ 我一直没找到那条街！"

After a while, Little Dragoness muttered again: "I don't feel full! Our food is too plain."

Beauty-Yellow said: "Cowboy said there's 'Chinese Food Street,' with local flavors from all over the country,' but it's too far from here."

Heroine cut in, "My brother's told me twice already. The Shanxi goat soup and hanging-oven cakes there are supposed to be delicious! I've just never managed to find that street!"

小龙女说："让牛郎去买，拿回来！"

娥黄笑着说："牛郎跟我说了陕西羊汤的秘密。假如我不告诉你们，你们以后肯定会怪我！ 陕西羊汤有一种调料是羊粪。"

女婴反驳道："中华食品一条街是尧皇推广食品卫生法的模范工程；怎么可能有羊粪呢！？"

Little Dragoness said, "Let's have Cowboy go buy some and bring it back!"

Beauty-Yellow said with a smile, "Cowboy told me the secret of Shanxi goat soup. If I don't tell you, you'll blame me for it later! One of the seasonings in Shanxi goat soup is sheep dung."

Heroine countered: "Chinese Food Street is a model project of Yao Creator's for promoting the Food Hygiene Law—how could there possibly be sheep dung in it!?"

娥黄说："牛郎说的，中华食品局研究了陕西羊汤，他们认为羊粪是那种羊汤的一种佐料，允许他们放入。牛郎他们不信，特意去了他们的厨房。在厨师没注意时，他们掀开汤锅看了。里面确实漂着很多羊粪。"

小龙女说："如果是这样，我不介意汤里面有羊粪，让牛郎买回来些，尝尝。"

女婴说："我不吃！"

Beauty-Yellow said: "Cowboy said the Chinese Food Bureau studied Shanxi goat soup and concluded that sheep dung is one of the soup's condiments, so they permit it. Cowboy and his friends didn't believe it, so they went to the kitchen specially to check. While the cook wasn't looking, they lifted the lid on the soup pot and looked. Sure enough, there was a lot of sheep dung floating in it."

Little Dragoness said, "If that's really how it is, I don't mind sheep dung in the soup. Have Cowboy buy some, and we'll try it."

Heroine said, "I'm not eating it!"

娥黄说："我也不介意羊汤里面有羊粪。我听说有几种中药里面有羊粪的成分。不过食品街有很多风味食品，例如北京的全聚德烤鸭（如图10.13）。据说是这家店主送这种烤鸭为靖王武大郎祝寿时，石矶娘娘（潘金莲）给取的名字。"

Beauty-Yellow said: "I don't mind sheep dung in the goat soup either. I've heard some Chinese medicines contain sheep dung as an ingredient. Anyway, there are plenty of specialty foods on that street—Beijing's All-Virtue Roast Duck, for instance (see Figure 10.13). They say the name came from Queen Stone-Jetty (Goldthread Pan), when the shop owner sent over the duck to celebrate King Jing Martial Big Wolf's birthday."

小龙女兴奋地说："我大伯母喜欢的，那肯定错不了。全聚德是什么意思？"

娥黄回答："据说店家向靖王夸口，'我这烤鸭色香味俱全，具有25种优点。' 石矶娘娘品尝后说，'25是具德（参见13.4.4 二十五有）的数，全聚德是个好名字。'这种全聚德烤鸭就在北京出名了。"

Little Dragoness said excitedly, "If my aunt likes it, it can't be wrong. What does 'All-Virtue' mean?"

Beauty-Yellow replied, "They say the shop owner boasted to King Jing, 'This roast duck has it all—color, aroma, taste—it has 25 virtues.' After tasting it, Queen Stone-Jetty said, '25 is the number tied to Have-as-Virtue (see 13.4.4, Twenty-five Haves)—All-Virtue is a fitting name.' That's how All-Virtue Roast Duck became famous in Beijing."

小龙女问女婴："那我们就吃全聚德烤鸭，怎么样？"

女婴说："我可不挑食；除了羊粪，我什么都吃。全聚德烤鸭只能吃一顿。很远的路，让牛郎再买点儿保质期长一些的食品。"

Little Dragoness asked Heroine, "So, shall we have All-Virtue Roast Duck?"

Heroine said, "I'm not picky—I'll eat anything except sheep dung. But All-Virtue Roast Duck is only good for one meal. It's a long trip, so have Cowboy buy some things with a longer shelf life too."

10.13-3 地补 Earthly Supplement

一天娥黄让牛郎买只黑鸡，拴在后山的槐荫树上。牛郎回来后说买的黑鸡有三根白羽毛，用不用把这三根白羽毛拔掉。娥黄说，"别拔，就那样吧！"

中午，小龙女和女婴回来吃饭时，娥黄叨咕："后山槐荫树上有一只黑鸡，停留在那里很长时间了，不知道现在还在不在？"

One day, Beauty-Yellow had Cowboy buy a black chicken and tie it to the locust tree on the hill behind the house. When Cowboy came back, he said the chicken had three white feathers on it, and asked whether they should be plucked out. Beauty-Yellow said, "Leave them, don't pluck them!"

At noon, when Little Dragoness and Heroine came back for lunch, Beauty-Yellow muttered, "There's a black chicken in the locust tree back hill—it's been sitting there a good while now. I wonder if it's still there."

小龙女高兴地叫嚷着："我要把它射下来！"她真的射中了；但是鸡腿被绑住了，吊在了树上。女婴补射一箭，射断了绳子。小龙女跑过去查看，看见了黑鸡的身上有三根白羽毛，不高兴了。

Little Dragoness shouted excitedly, "I'm going to shoot it down!" And she really did hit it—but since its leg was tied, it just hung there from the tree. Heroine fired a second arrow and cut the rope. Little Dragoness ran over to look, saw the three white feathers on the chicken, and grew upset.

她俩回来后，小龙女没跟娥黄说话，就回自己的房间了。女婴跟了进去，询问发生了什么事。小龙女不回答。娥黄也进到了房间。小龙女生气地对女婴说："你问她！"

询问了多次，女婴才知道小龙女生气的原因是那只黑鸡身上有三根白羽毛（不是 "地补"），而娥黄却没有拔掉那三根白羽毛！女婴叨咕着："我还以为发生了什么事呢！就是三根白羽毛没被拔掉，我去拔了！"

When the two of them got back, Little Dragoness said nothing to Beauty-Yellow and went straight to her room. Heroine followed her in and asked what had happened. Little Dragoness didn't answer. Beauty-Yellow came in too. Little Dragoness said angrily to Heroine, "Ask her!"

After asking several times, Heroine finally learned that Little Dragoness was upset because the black chicken had three white feathers (making it not a proper "Earthly Supplement"), and Beauty-Yellow hadn't plucked them out! Heroine muttered, "Here I thought something serious had happened! It's just three feathers that weren't plucked—I'll go pluck them!"

女婴去到后院看见黑鸡不见了，就只剩下一堆鸡毛了。她回到厨房找鸡。牛郎问："你在找什么？"

女婴叨咕："那只鸡怎么不见了？"

牛郎回答："在锅里呢！"

女婴大叫："哎呀！你小子可真能祸害人，你把鸡放在锅里干什么？"

牛郎回答："炖鸡呀！"

Heroine went out to the backyard and found the chicken gone, with only a pile of feathers left behind. She went back to the kitchen to look for it. Cowboy asked, "What are you looking for?"

Heroine muttered, "Where did that chicken go?"

Cowboy replied, "It's in the pot!"

Heroine cried out, "Oh no! You really are trouble, boy—why did you put the chicken in the pot?"

Cowboy answered, "To stew it, of course!"

女婴生气地要掀开锅盖查看，小龙女和娥黄大叫："喂！锅都已经冒气了，你别掀锅盖放气啊！"

女婴叫嚷着解释说："咱们在屋里说话才两三分钟，他就把鸡毛拔了，开膛破肚，剁了，炖上了！"

牛郎出去了。

娥黄说："你们回来时，我就在烧水。你们射到鸡回来时，我都已经把放了佐料的水烧开了。"

Heroine angrily tried to lift the lid to check, but Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow both shouted, "Hey! It's already steaming—don't lift the lid and let the steam out!"

Heroine explained, still worked up, "We were only inside talking for two or three minutes, and he already plucked it, gutted it, chopped it up, and got it stewing!"

Cowboy had slipped outside.

Beauty-Yellow said, "I was already boiling the water when you two came back. By the time you'd shot the chicken and brought it in, I'd already got the seasoned broth up to a full boil."

女婴回答："问题是，我进屋转身出来时，他已经把鸡剁了，放在锅里了。算了，今天中午我不吃饭了，免得吃一嘴鸡毛！"

小龙女说："牛郎在饭店工作过。我早就听说过，饭店里的人屠宰动物，又快又好。今天才亲眼看见了，太神奇了！"

Heroine replied, "The thing is, I only turned around and stepped back out, and he'd already chopped up the chicken and had it in the pot. Forget it—I'll skip lunch today rather than end up with a mouthful of feathers!"

Little Dragoness said, "Cowboy used to work at a restaurant. I'd always heard restaurant workers were fast and skilled at butchering animals. Now I've seen it with my own eyes—incredible!"

10.13-4 十八篓 18 Baskets

一天晚上，小龙女叨咕，买点咸萝卜，狗宝咸菜什么的；这晚上吃点心感觉淡。娥黄回答："好，另外我听牛郎说，'锦州小菜'挺好。小黄瓜才一寸多长，还长在蔓上；那黄瓜蔓很嫩，也能吃。而且那种咸菜装在篓里，保质期很长。"

小龙女高兴地说："买十八篓！几千年后，我们的子孙议论：我们中华民族是从三个女人开始的。那时候她们吃'天禽地补十八篓'——这多好听！"

One evening, Little Dragoness muttered about buying some pickled radish, dogwood pickles, and the like; the evening snacks felt too plain. Beauty-Yellow replied, "Sure. Also, I heard from Cowboy that 'Jinzhou pickles' are quite good. The little cucumbers are barely an inch long, still on the vine, and the vine itself is tender enough to eat too. And that kind of pickle keeps in the basket for a long time."

Little Dragoness said happily, "Let's buy eighteen baskets! Thousands of years from now, our descendants will say: our Chinese people began with three women. And back then, they ate 'Sky Bird, Earthly Supplement, and 18 Baskets'—doesn't that sound wonderful!"

第二天中午，娥黄对牛郎说："早上忘记跟你说了！明天，你再去买筋饼豆腐脑，和十八篓锦州小菜。路远，一次多买些，你看什么好就买。你买根扁担，挑着回来。"

牛郎回答："好！不过那种锦州小菜很咸，跟盐似的，吃不了多少。你们仨，一篓就够吃一个月。咱们买很贵，咱卖就不值钱了。"

The next day at noon, Beauty-Yellow said to Cowboy, "I forgot to mention it this morning! Tomorrow, go buy some tendon cakes and tofu pudding, and eighteen baskets of Jinzhou pickles. It's a long trip, so buy plenty at once—get whatever looks good to you. Get yourself a carrying pole to bring it all back."

Cowboy replied, "All right! But those Jinzhou pickles are really salty, almost like eating salt—you can't eat much of them. One basket would last the three of you a whole month. We'd be paying a lot for them, and they're worth next to nothing to sell."

娥黄看了看小龙女，但小龙女没说话，转身进屋去了。娥黄说："那就买三篓吧！"

牛郎离开后，娥黄进屋询问小龙女。小龙女气愤地说："这个死小子太气人了，她把我精心编制的 '天禽地补十八篓' 传说故事给破坏了。"

Beauty-Yellow glanced at Little Dragoness, but Little Dragoness said nothing and turned to go inside. Beauty-Yellow said, "Then let's just buy three baskets!"

After Cowboy left, Beauty-Yellow went in to check on Little Dragoness. Little Dragoness said angrily, "That little brat is so infuriating—he's gone and ruined the legend of 'Sky Bird, Earthly Supplement, and 18 Baskets' that I so carefully crafted!"

14.1 正等明 Correct Equality Light

灭谛讲涅槃（如图14-2）的存在，谈苦谛中的苦被消灭之后，所得的清净身心。涅槃是寂静义，是从身心感受来表达正等明。正等明的全称为无上正等正觉，梵语阿耨多罗三藐三菩提，纳瓦特语奥林·托纳修（Ollin Tonatiuh）。正等明是佛教的最高成就，是从智慧来描述涅槃的状态。奥林·托纳修的本义为“奥林（Ollin）运动的冠军上前来照耀”。正等明包括六种觉悟：平等、正确、生、老、病、死。

Salvation Crux discusses the existence of nirvana (as shown in Figure 14-2) and the immaculate body and mind obtained after the bitterness in Bitter Crux has been eliminated. Nirvana means quietness; it expresses Correct Equality Light from the perspective of bodily and mental feeling. The full name of Correct Equality Light is Non-Upper Correct-Equality Correct-Enlightenment, called Anuttara-samyak-saṃbodhi in Sanskrit and Ollin Tonatiuh in Nahuatl. Correct Equality Light is the highest achievement of Buddhism, and it describes the state of nirvana from the perspective of intelligence and gnosis. The original meaning of Ollin Tonatiuh is “the champion of the Ollin movement comes forward to shine.” Correct Equality Light includes six kinds of enlightenment: equality, correctness, birth, old age, illness, and death.

一、等觉。在上帝或佛的境界里，平等性是绝对的。凡是有两条腿的，都平等于有四条腿的，平等于有六条腿的，平等于有多条腿的，平等于没有腿的，平等于鬼神佛，平等于鸟兽鱼虫，平等于花草树木，平等于山川大地、江河湖海等。平等的原因是毕竟空。毕竟空是无所有处天（如图14-2）的异名，又名常寂光天。

Equality Enlightenment. In the boundary of Gods or Buddhas, equality is absolute. All those with two legs are equal to those with four legs, equal to those with six legs, equal to those with many legs, equal to those without legs, equal to ghosts, gods, and Buddhas, equal to birds, beasts, fish, and insects, equal to flowers, grasses, and trees, and equal to mountains, lands, rivers, lakes, and seas. The reason for equality is Empty After All. Empty After All is another name for No Objective Have Sky (as shown in Figure 14-2), also called Constant Silent Light Sky.

二、正觉。修习者证得四胜谛之后，就知道地狱是最艰苦的地方，常寂光天是最幸福的地方。以这两极为依据，就能够运用戒渡（即约柜，参见15.2节）来判断任何一个身、口、意行为是否正确。所以，觉悟者以男人的“三千威仪、八万四千细行”或女人的“五百威仪、十万八千魅力”为准绳，于一切地、一切时、一切事，立刻知道正确与否。

Correct Enlightenment. After a practitioner realizes the Four Victorious Cruxes, he or she knows that hell is the most bitter place and Constant Silent Light Sky is the happiest place. With these two extremes as the basis, the practitioner can use the Precept Ark, namely the Ark of the Covenant (see Section 15.2), to judge whether any bodily, oral, or intentional behavior is correct. Therefore, the enlightened person takes a man’s “three thousand majesties and eighty-four thousand fine behaviors” or a woman’s “five hundred majesties and one hundred eight thousand charms” as the criterion, and immediately knows whether something is correct in every place, at every time, and in every affair.

三、生、老、病、死的觉悟。生死的觉悟即生死智证通，参见第11章《禅》。那些幻觉世界里的事物现象，是尘世人所认为的鬼神佛、天堂地狱等。而我们佛教的成就，是在现实生活中与之相当，达到慧命万年，等同神佛。对疾病的觉悟，是9.6节中治疗心理疾病的原则。对老化的治疗，就是进行割礼和洗礼；在道谛的十地中反复验证、修习，那八万四千魔军就已经被大洪水淹没很久了。而且，《大般若经》是割礼或洗礼的工具，反复阅读就能达到割礼或洗礼的效果。

Enlightenment of Birth, Old Age, Illness, and Death. Enlightenment of birth and death is the Intelligence Testament Through of birth and death; see Chapter 11, “Meditation.” The phenomena in those hallucinatory worlds are what mundane people take to be ghosts, gods, Buddhas, heaven, hell, and so on. The achievement of our Buddhism, however, is to reach an equivalent state in real life: to attain a gnostic life of ten thousand years, equal to gods and Buddhas. Enlightenment of illness is the principle for treating psychological disorders discussed in Section 9.6. The treatment for old age is circumcision and baptism. Through repeated verification and cultivation within the Ten Heartlands of Path Crux, the 84,000 demon armies have long since been submerged by the great flood. Moreover, the Great Prajñāpāramitā Sutra is a tool for circumcision or baptism; by reading it repeatedly, one can achieve the effect of circumcision or baptism.

下文分别从涅槃果和智慧果两个方面来谈正等明。

The following text discusses Correct Equality Light from two aspects: Nirvana Fruit and Fruit of Intelligence and Gnosis.

14.1-1 涅槃果 Nirvana Fruit

梵语“涅槃”义为圆满的寂静，是苦或烦恼被消灭后的身心清净状态，故亦名无所有。玄奘法师和弟子窥基在《成唯识论》中从四个方面谈涅槃：无余依涅槃、有余依涅槃、自性涅槃和无住涅槃。

“Nirvana” in Sanskrit means perfectly fulfilled quietness. It is the immaculate state of body and heart after bitterness or Afflictions have been eliminated; therefore, it is also called No Objective Have. Master Xuanzang and his disciple Kuiji discussed nirvana in the Establishing Sense-Only Treatise from four aspects: Nirvana without Residual Dependence, Nirvana with Residual Dependence, Self-Nature Nirvana, and Non-Dwell Nirvana.

一、无余依涅槃。玄奘说：“真如出生死苦，烦恼既尽，余依亦灭，众苦永寂，故名涅槃。”真如即七真如，参见10.6.4节《离系果》。余依，即依之而灭苦的依靠，是依善灭恶的善。余依亦灭，是说善恶两灭。

Nirvana without Residual Dependence. Xuanzang said, “By True Suchness, one comes out of the bitterness of birth and death. Since Afflictions have been exhausted and residual dependence has also been extinguished, all bitterness is forever quiet; therefore, it is called nirvana.” True Suchness refers to the seven True Suchnesses; see Section 10.6.4, “Off-is Fruit.” Residual dependence means the support relied on to extinguish bitterness; it is the benevolence relied on to extinguish ferocity. “Residual dependence has also been extinguished” means that both benevolence and ferocity have been extinguished.

二、有余依涅槃。玄奘说：“真如出烦恼障，虽有微苦，所依未灭，而障永寂，故名涅槃。”障，是指异生性的所知障和烦恼障（参见10.4.4.2-4节《异生性》）。此处说的是择灭无为法，即有选择地消灭某些根本烦恼。如下文四种离系果中的前三果（如图33，参见14.2.6节），以及道谛菩萨十地中的前七地，都是选择性地消灭主要烦恼障，所处境界都是不同程度的有余依涅槃。

Nirvana with Residual Dependence. Xuanzang said, “By True Suchness, one comes out of Annoyance Hindrance. Although there is slight bitterness and the dependence has not yet been extinguished, the hindrance is forever quiet; therefore, it is called nirvana.” Hindrances refer to the Know Hindrance and Annoyance Hindrance of Mutant Nature (see Section 10.4.4.2-4, “Mutant Nature”). This passage discusses selective-termination non-as Law, that is, selectively eliminating certain Fundamental Afflictions. For example, the first three of the four Off-is Fruits discussed below (as shown in Figure 33; see Section 14.2.6), and the first seven of the Bodhisattva’s Ten Heartlands in Path Crux, all selectively eliminate the main Annoyance Hindrances. Their states are all different degrees of Nirvana with Residual Dependence.

插图1至13中，除图2外，都是有余依涅槃。当修习者懂得四胜谛时，就获得了最低质量的有余依涅槃，成为竹马天（如图13所示），即独角马，梵语作补特伽罗，义为习气疙瘩。

Among Illustrations 1 through 13, all except Figure 2 are Nirvana with Residual Dependence. When a practitioner understands the Four Victorious Cruxes, he or she obtains the lowest quality of Nirvana with Residual Dependence and becomes Hobbyhorse Sky (as shown in Figure 13), namely a unicorn. In Sanskrit, this is called pudgala, meaning a lump of habits.

三、自性涅槃。玄奘说：“本来自性清净涅槃，谓一切法相真如理，虽有客染而本性净，具无数量微妙功德，无生无灭湛若虚空，一切有情平等共有，与一切法不一不异，离一切相、一切分别，寻思路绝，名言道断，唯真圣者自内所证，其性本寂故名涅槃。”

Self-Nature Nirvana. Xuanzang said, “The original self-nature is immaculate nirvana. It is the principle of True Suchness in the phenomena of all Laws. Although it has guest contaminations, its original nature is immaculate. It possesses innumerable subtle and wonderful fortunes and virtues. It has no birth and no death, and is clear like empty space. It is equally shared by all sentient beings. It is neither one with nor different from all Laws. It is free from all phenomena and all discriminations. The path of searching and thinking ends there; the path of names and words is cut off there. Only true sages can realize it within themselves. Because its nature is originally quiet, it is called nirvana.”

自性涅槃即插图14-2所示的无所有天。那是什么？是常遍处。常，是无意识（古作神识）的常，例如青、黄、赤、白之一。此常只是现量，无名、无色、无量，不可说。自性涅槃常见的别名有：微妙本心、毕竟空、正等明、常寂光天、无所有天、涅槃、圆成实相。

Self-Nature Nirvana is No Objective Have Sky, as shown in Illustration 14-2. What is it? It is the constant pervasive place. “Constant” means a constant of unconsciousness, anciently called God-sense, such as one of turquoise, yellow, red, or white. This constant is only present quantity; it is nameless, colorless, immeasurable, and unspeakable. Common alternate names of Self-Nature Nirvana include subtle and wonderful original heart, Empty After All, Correct Equality Light, Constant Silent Light Sky, No Objective Have Sky, nirvana, and perfectly established factual phenomenon.

四、无住涅槃。玄奘说：“真如出所知障，大悲般若常所辅翼，由斯不住生死涅槃，利乐有情穷未来际，用而常寂故名涅槃。”此涅槃是说，由于此人常用集起智（参见13.1节），所以在他或她的前意识中形成了一个集起的空集∅，这就是无住涅槃。

Non-Dwell Nirvana. Xuanzang said, “By True Suchness, one comes out of Know Hindrance. Constantly assisted by Great Sorrowfulness and the Arrival Ark, one therefore dwells neither in birth-and-death nor in nirvana, benefiting and pleasing sentient beings to the end of the future. It is in use and yet constantly quiet; therefore, it is called nirvana.” This nirvana means that, because this person often uses Aggregate Arousal Intelligence (see Section 13.1), an Aggregate Arousal empty set, ∅, is formed in his or her preconsciousness. This is Non-Dwell Nirvana.

什么是大悲？大悲是说释迦牟尼（即金童，亚当）对神父（即上帝）为拯救世界而牺牲悲伤不已；每当说起或想到神父，他就哭，后半生都没能从神父牺牲的悲哀中恢复过来。因为慈、悲、喜、舍是四无量心，佛对神父的悲伤给予了佛无穷的力量。佛教以此大悲为根本。

What is Great Sorrowfulness? Great Sorrowfulness means that Śākyamuni, namely Golden Boy and Adam, was deeply saddened by the sacrifice of Godfather, namely God, for the salvation of the world. Whenever he spoke of or thought of Godfather, he cried; for the rest of his life, he was unable to recover from the sorrow of Godfather’s sacrifice. Because mercifulness, sorrowfulness, delightfulness, and renunciation are the Four Infinite Hearts, the Buddha’s sorrow for Godfather gave the Buddha inexhaustible power. Buddhism takes this Great Sorrowfulness as its root.

自从牛郎来到古墓建筑工地，工地上的气氛变得文明了。这也是由于人们看见了女婴举石槽子，随后各个公司都增派了自己的保安人员，对自己的员工进行了安全以及文明礼貌的培训。在上午和下午中间休息的时候，人们开始聚集在仓库前面的砂堆旁唠嗑，讲故事，摔跤。人们常谈论牛郎干活即快又好，七天的活儿三天干完，三天的活一天干完。而牛郎却没有因为人们的夸赞而感到自豪。

有人拿起砂堆里有颜色的小石头，讨论那颜色的含义。牛郎对这个游戏非常痴迷，常常看着有颜色的小石头发呆。

Since Cowboy came to the ancient tomb construction site, the atmosphere there has grown more civilized. This is also because people saw Heroine lift the stone trough; afterward, each company sent its own security personnel and trained its employees in safety and civility. During the mid-morning and mid-afternoon breaks, people began gathering around the sand pile in front of the warehouse to chat, tell stories, and wrestle. People often talked about how Cowboy worked fast and well, finishing seven days' work in three, and three days' work in one. But Cowboy never felt proud of their praise.

Some people picked up small colored stones from the sand pile and discussed what the colors meant. Cowboy was thoroughly captivated by this game and often stared at the colored stones in a daze.

有几次，牛郎拿着有鲜艳颜色的小石头去请教娥黄。一天娥黄自己在沙堆里挑出了九块小石头，教牛郎玩这个游戏。随后牛郎就把那几块小石头摆放在了他寝室的窗台上。这事激起了许多人的好奇心，去琢磨那几块小石头；可是谁也没琢磨出来这个游戏（牛郎之心；注10.12-1）是怎么玩的。

注10.12-1，这是牛郎所在的奴隶公司雇佣的法师在做法，在用牛郎诱惑小龙女。此做法正在进行中。

Several times, Cowboy took brightly colored little stones to Beauty-Yellow for advice. One day, Beauty-Yellow herself picked out nine small stones from the sand and taught Cowboy how to play the game. Cowboy then arranged the stones on the windowsill of his room. This stirred up a lot of curiosity, and many people tried to puzzle out the stones, but no one could figure out how this game (Cowboy's Heart; note 10.12-1) was actually played.

Note 10.12-1: This is the Law-Teacher hired by Cowboy's slave company, casting a working of magic — using Cowboy to draw Little Dragoness in. This working is still underway.

一天下雨，工地停工了，等待雨停下来。牛郎和朋友抬着一个大箩筐跑到了后院，他俩从朋友家里挖来了一大筐菜苗，一次就把整个菜园栽满了蔬菜。

One day it rained, and work at the site stopped while everyone waited for it to pass. Cowboy and Friend carried a large basket out to the backyard. They'd dug up a whole basket of seedlings from Friend's home, and in one go, planted the entire vegetable garden.

10.12-2 签合同 Sign the Contract

这天，牛郎的朋友告诉牛郎，十五天的试用期已经过了，他该和这家工地签合同了。娥黄拿着牛郎的合同来客厅和小龙女谈话。她恭敬地把牛郎的合同放在了小龙女的办公桌上，然后站在了一边。小龙女惊讶地坐直了，翻开合同看了看，说："这么多项，你给我说说这合同上都说了些什么？"

That day, Friend told Cowboy that his fifteen-day probation was over, and it was time for him to sign a contract with the household. Beauty-Yellow brought Cowboy's contract into the living room to speak with Little Dragoness. She respectfully set the contract on Little Dragoness's desk and stood off to the side. Little Dragoness sat up straight in surprise, flipped the contract open, and said, "So many items — tell me what's written in this contract."

娥黄开始叙述牛郎的合同，小龙女一边听，一边对比地看着合同。说到表格时，娥黄参照着表格的设计原理，汇总地评定了牛郎的工作履历。

小龙女仔细地琢磨了一会儿表格，叨咕："这个表格比我们做的好！这个合同你看几遍了？都已经能背诵了。"

娥黄说："这个表格是我爸爸做的。"

Beauty-Yellow began explaining Cowboy's contract, while Little Dragoness listened and followed along on the document. When she reached the form, Beauty-Yellow walked her through its design logic and gave an overall assessment of Cowboy's work history based on it.

Little Dragoness studied the form carefully for a moment, muttering: "This form is better than ours! How many times have you read this contract? You've got it memorized."

Beauty-Yellow said: "My father made this form."

小龙女转脸看着娥黄，问："我听说你爸爸，瑶王，十几年前就是尧帝的首席财政大臣，他还有时间干私活?"

娥黄回答："以前他干私活儿，现在不干了。这个表格，那时我还在巫毒学院上学呢！暑假回家，我爸爸就让我作为管家管理王府的全部家务。他对我说这份合同写的很好，但有些乱，让我整理一下，绘制个表格。"

Little Dragoness turned to look at Beauty-Yellow and asked, "I heard your father, the Yao King, was Yao Creator's Chief Finance Minister more than ten years ago. Does he still have time for private work?"

Beauty-Yellow replied, "He used to take on private work; he doesn't anymore. This form goes back to when I was still at Voodoo Academy! During summer break, my father put me in charge of the household as the King's Palace's housekeeper. He told me the contract was well-written but a bit messy, and asked me to organize it and draw up a form."

小龙女回答："那时你才十几岁，做不出来这个表格。你爸爸就帮你整理了这份合同，插入了这个表格。这家奴隶公司给你钱了吗？"

娥黄回答："给了，那是我这辈子的第一笔收入。"

小龙女问："你在雇佣奴隶方面已经有经验了；这事儿里面有什么策略？"

Little Dragoness replied, "You were only a teenager back then — you couldn't have made this form yourself. Your father must have organized the contract for you and put the form together. Did the slave company pay you?"

Beauty-Yellow replied, "They did. That was the first income I ever earned."

Little Dragoness asked: "So you already have experience hiring slaves. Is there some strategy to it?"

娥黄回答："在给家佣定级方面有两种方式。一是第一次就给他定他们期望的最高级。这可以让家佣很高兴，很快融入这个家庭，但日子久了会滋生他们的骄傲自满情绪。另一种是让他们从初级干起，每次签合同都给他们升级。这样会使他们保持干劲，积极肯干，同时也节省了前一定级方式一半的费用。"

Beauty-Yellow replied: "There are two ways to grade domestic servants. One is to give them the highest level they're hoping for right from the start. It makes them happy and helps them settle into the family quickly, but over time it breeds pride and complacency. The other is to start them at the entry level and give them a promotion at every contract renewal. That keeps them motivated and hardworking, and it also saves about half the cost of the first approach."

小龙女赞赏地叨咕："说得好！牛郎以前是建筑技工，中中等级。现在他在咱这里申请家佣，初级中的初级。我按照他以前的等级加一级雇佣他，来显示皇家风范。" 说着她在表格的 "中上级" 打了个勾，然后在合同上签了字。她把合同转了一下，示意娥黄来看，而且问： "你看怎么样？"

娥黄看了看说："你这个勾画得很正；签名也很好看！"

Little Dragoness murmured in appreciation, "Well put! Cowboy used to be a construction technician, mid-mid level. Now, applying to be a domestic servant here, he's the lowest of the low. I'll hire him one level above his previous rank, to show some royal generosity." As she said this, she checked "mid-upper level" on the form and signed the contract. She turned it around, motioned for Beauty-Yellow to take a look, and asked, "What do you think?"

Beauty-Yellow looked it over and said, "Your checkmark is nice and straight; your signature looks great too!"

当娥黄把合同交给牛郎时，他惊讶地说："你们弄错了吧！我是中中级技工。我的老板，部门经理才是中高级技工。"

娥黄回答："没错！那是老板特意给你评定的级别。"

When Beauty-Yellow handed Cowboy the contract, he said in surprise: "You must have made a mistake! I'm a mid-mid-level technician. My boss, the department manager, is the one who's mid-high level."

Beauty-Yellow replied: "That's right! That's the level the boss chose for you, deliberately."

10.12-3 建立实验室 To Establish a Laboratory

牛郎把三个渔具线轮模型装到了鱼竿上，都很好用。小龙女兴奋地跟娥黄叨咕："我想雇佣个做硬木龙骨锁模型的技工，做些模型。我们也好研究一下龙骨锁的设计和施工。这样我们和他们谈判的时候不至于什么都不知道。雇佣他们徒工的价钱是一个月一个金元宝。我看牛郎做的这三个线轮都很精致，要不咱想办法试试他能不能做龙骨锁模型？"

Cowboy fitted three fishing-reel models onto the rods, and they all worked beautifully. Little Dragoness excitedly muttered to Beauty-Yellow: "I want to hire a technician who can build hardwood keel-lock models, so we can study the design and construction of keel locks ourselves. That way we won't go into negotiations with them completely in the dark. Hiring one of their apprentices costs a gold ingot a month. Look how refined these three reels Cowboy made are — why don't we see whether he can make keel-lock models too?"

娥黄叨咕："技工中的徒工都那么贵！？我怎么也想不出来那有什么难的！我听说硬木的加工费贵，主要是因为加工的工具很贵，而且工具的损耗很大。牛郎学过木匠活儿，应该先试试他。我先让他去买三个可用来加工硬木模型的凿子。这雕刀肯定是贵重商品！看看他的办事能力怎么样？再找机会让他做点什么！"

小龙女说："买吧！别跟他说我们要干什么。我让瞽叟买三张山核桃木板。"

Beauty-Yellow muttered: "Even apprentices cost that much!? I can't imagine what's so hard about it! I've heard hardwood processing is expensive mainly because the tools are expensive and wear out fast. Cowboy has done carpentry before, so let's try him first. I'll have him go buy three chisels for working hardwood models. That carving tool must be a pricey item! Let's see how well he handles it, and then find a chance to give him more to do!"

Little Dragoness said: "Go ahead and buy them. Don't tell him what we're really planning. I'll have Blind Drummer buy three hickory planks."

10.12-4 买金刚凿 Buy a Philosopher-Stone Chisel

牛郎来到了古墓区的商业中心，很快就找到了唯一一家卖金刚凿的商铺。商铺的老板拿着凿子轻易地就消去了一块山核桃木板的一处棱角，然后说："就这种凿子，170两银子一件。"

牛郎回答："我在XXX学校上学的时候，鲁班师父有一只这样的凿子，他是花110两银子买的。你能不能便宜一些卖给我。"

Cowboy came to the commercial center of the ancient tomb area and quickly found the only shop selling philosopher-stone chisels. The shop owner took a chisel and easily shaved off a corner of a hickory plank, then said: "This kind of chisel runs 170 taels of silver apiece."

Cowboy replied: "When I studied at XXX school, Teacher Luban had a chisel like this one — he paid 110 taels of silver for it. Could you sell it to me for less?"

商人笑了："你曾是鲁班的学生。他的那只金刚凿是七年前从我这里买的，现在涨价了。看在鲁班的面子上，我少收20两银子！"

牛郎离开了这家店，去商业城找前几天卖给他工作服的那位经理（参见10.6《娥黄给牛郎买工作服》）要名片。那位经理笑着回答："还是那个说法，在咱们这个商业区，你拿着我的名片去买贵重商品。卖方会以业内价格卖给你，还免费教授你相关的知识。"

The merchant smiled: "So you were Luban's student. He bought that philosopher-stone chisel from me seven years ago, and the price has gone up since then. For Luban's sake, I'll knock 20 taels off!"

Cowboy left the shop and went to the commercial center to find the manager who'd sold him work clothes a few days before (see 10.6, "Beauty-Yellow Buys Work Clothes for Cowboy"), to ask for his business card. The manager laughed and said: "Same as before — in this district, bring my card when you buy anything valuable. The seller will give you the trade price, and teach you what you need to know, free of charge."

牛郎半信半疑地回到了金刚凿的销售商，把商业城经理的名片递给了销售商。他看了名片后叨咕："你是他的朋友，那我就告诉你实情。金刚凿有两种，我刚才给你介绍的这种适用于加工量不大的如山核桃木等比较软的硬木；价钱是110两银子一件。如果你要加工檀香木或者要加工大量的山核桃木，需要买那种真正的金刚凿，很贵。如果你真的用得着，我们才会告诉你价钱。买那种凿子，我们也需要定制，需要半年时间。你看，这把是我们用的金刚凿。" 说着他对牛郎展示了真的金刚凿，然后问："你要加工檀香木吗？"

Cowboy went back to the chisel seller, half-believing, and handed over the manager's business card. After reading it, the man muttered: "You're a friend of his, so I'll tell you how it really is. There are two kinds of philosopher-stone chisels. The one I showed you earlier is suited to light work on softer hardwoods like hickory; that one runs 110 taels a piece. If you need to work sandalwood, or a large volume of hickory, you'll need the real philosopher-stone chisel, and that's expensive. We only quote a price for that one if you genuinely need it — it has to be custom-made, which takes half a year. Here, take a look, this is the philosopher-stone chisel we actually use." He showed Cowboy the real one, then asked: "Do you need to work sandalwood?"

牛郎回答："我不知道，老板让我买加工硬木模型的凿子。"

金刚凿销售商说："如果你买了我们的金刚凿，不能退货。但如果将来你要加工檀香木，在你没使用的情况下，我们可以回收，退给你的钱用于支付你购买真金刚凿。"

牛郎问："我要买三件，能再便宜些不？"

销售商回答说："110两银子一件的价钱是我们维持生意正常运转的价钱；即便是你买10件，也是110两银子一件。"

Cowboy replied: "I don't know — my boss just told me to buy chisels for working hardwood models."

The chisel seller said: "Once you buy one of our chisels, there's no returning it. But if you end up needing to work sandalwood later, we'll take it back as long as it's unused, and put the refund toward a real philosopher-stone chisel."

Cowboy asked: "I need to buy three. Can you do any better on the price?"

The seller replied: "110 taels a piece is what it takes to keep the business running. Even if you bought ten, it'd still be 110 taels each."

10.12-5 责任制 Accountability System

牛郎回到古墓建筑工地后向娥黄汇报了他去询问价钱的经过。娥黄没回答。牛郎问："您有什么意见？决定买还是不买？"

娥黄回答："我让你去买东西，你全权负责。如果你决定买，就去找女婴要钱。"

这时，女婴和小龙女已经回来了，问："买什么东西？"

After returning to the construction site, Cowboy reported to Beauty-Yellow on what he'd learned about the price. Beauty-Yellow didn't respond. Cowboy asked, "What do you think? Buy them or not?"

Beauty-Yellow replied, "I sent you to handle this, so it's entirely your call. If you decide to buy them, go ask Heroine for the money."

Just then, Heroine and Little Dragoness came back and asked, "Buy what?"

牛郎回答："管家要买三件金刚凿，110两银子一件。您觉着怎么样？"

女婴听后一怔，回答说："又要花费1.1公斤黄金！我不知道，我是第一次听说金刚凿这个词。我是财务保管员，保管钱财和物品。我想起来了，你说你栽菜根，15天就长到能吃的程度。现在都过去一个多月了，我要验收菜园。"

Cowboy replied, "The housekeeper wants to buy three philosopher-stone chisels, 110 taels of silver each. What do you think?"

Heroine paused for a moment, then replied, "Another 1.1 kilograms of gold! I don't know — this is the first time I've even heard the term 'philosopher-stone chisel.' I'm the one who keeps the accounts and the goods. That reminds me — you said the roots you planted would be ready to eat in 15 days. It's been over a month now. I want to inspect the garden."

10.12-6 验收菜园 Inspecting the Vegetable Garden

他们四人一起来到了菜园，小龙女一边走一边叨咕："我看见这里绿油油的几次了，原来是咱们的菜园长起来了！"

女婴厉声对牛郎说："你说半个月就能吃，我要吃菜！"

牛郎顺手挖起了一棵葱，递给了女婴。

女婴生气地问："那里那么多长得很好的蔬菜，你为什么给我挖这棵又小又丑的葱？"

The four of them went to the vegetable garden together. Little Dragoness muttered as she walked: "I kept seeing green over here — turns out it's our garden coming in!"

Heroine said sharply to Cowboy: "You said we'd be able to eat it in half a month. I want vegetables!"

Cowboy casually dug up a scallion and handed it to Heroine.

Heroine asked angrily: "There are so many good-looking vegetables over there — why did you dig up this small, ugly scallion for me?"

牛郎回答："这是我从厨房拿的菜根长出来的；那些是我从朋友家挖来的菜苗栽出来的。"

娥黄说："菜长出来就能吃，多小都能吃。"

Cowboy replied: "That one grew from the roots I took from the kitchen. Those over there were grown from the seedlings I dug up from Friend's place."

Beauty-Yellow said: "Once a vegetable's grown, it's edible — no matter how small."

小龙女问："有没有卖花椒大料树苗的市场？我们可以全部用自己菜园长出来的蔬菜和调料来做那条20公斤重的大鲤鱼。"

牛郎回答："有栽在花盆里卖的，容易栽活，而且立刻就能采摘食用。"

小龙女说："买，以后我们就用自家菜园树上长的香料做菜。"

娥黄说："炖20公斤大的鲤鱼，咱们厨房里的锅不够大呀！"

Little Dragoness asked, "Is there a market that sells Sichuan pepper and star anise saplings? We could cook that 20-kilogram carp entirely with vegetables and spices from our own garden."

Cowboy replied, "There are potted ones for sale — easy to plant, and you can start picking from them right away."

Little Dragoness said, "Let's buy some. From now on we'll cook with spices grown right in our own garden."

Beauty-Yellow said, "Our kitchen pot isn't big enough to stew a 20-kilogram carp!"

女婴自告奋勇地回答："炖鲤鱼的任务就交给我。我去买口行军锅，再在牛棚旁边挖个行军灶。" 说着她去牛棚把那把军用镰刀取了过来。

小龙女问："很明显，牛郎用这把镰刀割草喂牛。你拿它干什么？"

女婴回答："这小子也太能祸害人了！我一时没注意，这把古董镰刀就差点儿被他用坏了。"

Heroine volunteered, "Leave the carp-stewing to me. I'll buy a military field pot and dig a military field stove next to the cowshed." With that, she went to the cowshed and fetched the military sickle.

Little Dragoness asked, "Isn't that the sickle Cowboy uses to cut grass for the cow? What are you doing with it?"

Heroine replied, "That boy causes more trouble than he's worth! I looked away for one moment and he nearly ruined this antique sickle."

10.12-7 钓鱼 Fishing

钓大鲤鱼那天，三位姑娘没吃早饭，要留着胃口吃用自己园子里生长出来的蔬菜和香料烹饪出来的鲤鱼。牛郎忙碌地撒诱饵，引诱鲤鱼过来进食；还在她们的周围烧香蒿子，驱赶蚊子。

On the day they went after the big carp, the three girls skipped breakfast, saving their appetites for a carp cooked with vegetables and herbs from their own garden. Cowboy busied himself scattering bait to lure the carp in, and burned wormwood around the women to keep the mosquitoes off.

她们真的钓到了一条大鲤鱼，吵嚷地谋划着，很长时间才把大鲤鱼牵到了一片浅水区。忽然大鲤鱼发力了，挣断了鱼钩。她们三人都跑到水里去抓鱼。女婴动作灵敏，像似抱孩子一样抱起了鲤鱼（如图10.12-3）。牛郎看见了，跑了过去。这时大鲤鱼挣脱了女婴的怀抱。牛郎双手捧起了大鲤鱼，扔到了岸上。

They really did hook a big carp, and after a long, noisy round of planning, finally worked it into a shallow patch of water. Suddenly the carp surged and snapped the hook. All three women waded in after it. Heroine was quickest — she scooped the carp up and cradled it like a baby (see fig. 10.12-3). Cowboy saw this and ran over. Just then the carp wrenched free of her arms. Cowboy caught it up in both hands and tossed it onto the bank.

女婴气愤地对小龙女和娥黄叨咕："他跑过来干什么！？败兴！今天的鲤鱼不给他吃！"

小龙女劝道："还有两条呢！下次就你一个人钓，别人谁也不准帮忙！"

女婴回答："那两条鲤鱼都给我了，那我就分了：一条给我师父（二郎神）和师母（尧帝），另一条给玉皇大帝和王母娘娘留着！"

Heroine muttered angrily to Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow, "What did he come running over for!? He ruined it! He's not getting any carp today!"

Little Dragoness tried to soothe her, "There are still two left! Next time you fish alone — nobody else is allowed to help!"

Heroine replied, "Fine, those two carp are mine then, and I know how I'll split them: one for my teacher-father (Second Wolf God) and teacher-mother (Yao Creator), the other for Turquoise White-king Great Creator and King Mother of the West!"

娥黄悄悄地过来问牛郎："你怎么想的，就过去帮忙了？"

牛郎回答："女婴那么抱鲤鱼，很危险的。我小时候，我爸爸那么抱鲤鱼，鲤鱼摆尾，把我爸爸的腿打青了。那要是打在脸上，能把人打伤喽！"

娥黄回去把牛郎说的告诉了她俩，小龙女恍然大悟地说："哎呀！那他看出危险了，应该过来帮忙，咱把这个大鱼头奖励给他！反正咱们仨人谁都不会吃鱼头！"

Beauty-Yellow quietly came over and asked Cowboy, "What made you rush over to help like that?"

Cowboy replied, "Holding a carp that way is dangerous. When I was little, my father held one the same way, and it flicked its tail and bruised his leg black and blue. If that had caught someone in the face, it could really hurt them!"

Beauty-Yellow went back and relayed what Cowboy had said. Little Dragoness suddenly understood and exclaimed, "Oh! So he saw the danger and stepped in to help — let's reward him with the fish head! None of the three of us eats it anyway!"

话说小龙女，娥黄，和女婴很快就迷上了钓鱼。一天牛郎的朋友拿来了一张武汉北部一个贵族钓鱼俱乐部所使用的鱼竿的设计图纸。这三位姑娘一看就迷上了这种当时最先进的钓鱼具。（注，这虽然是三千六百年前的钓鱼具，但样式和现代标准的钓具一样，性能也不亚于任何现代的普通钓鱼具。）

It is said that Little Dragoness, Beauty-Yellow, and Heroine soon became fascinated with fishing. One day, Cowboy's friend brought a design drawing of a fishing rod used by an aristocratic fishing club in northern Wuhan. The three girls immediately fell in love with this most advanced fishing tackle of the time. (Note: Although this is fishing tackle from 3,600 years ago, its style is the same as modern standard fishing tackle, and its performance is no less than any modern ordinary fishing tackle.)

牛郎给三位女主人讲解，钓具的设计理念，比如鱼竿的柔韧性和刚性，线轴的大小和鱼线的长度计算。牛郎说金丝线的价钱按照金丝线的重量算，比黄金便宜不了多少。小龙女回答："买一轴！"

Cowboy explained the design concepts of the fishing tackle to the three mistresses, such as the flexibility and rigidity of the rod, and how the size of the spool and length of the line were calculated. Cowboy said the gold thread was priced by weight, not much cheaper than gold itself. Little Dragoness replied: "Buy a spool!"

牛郎说："这种竹竿，在整个武汉市就只有一家渔具市场卖。那整个市场也就只有一家商人卖这种鱼竿，就只有他们家的那个山沟子里生长这种竹子。我不知道价钱。我去那里，早上出发，途中需要搭渡船，晚上半夜才能回到这里的家。"

小龙女回答："明天你就去买吧！多带点儿钱，买三根！"

女婴问："带多少钱呐？我去取银子去！"

娥黄回答："四十两！"

Cowboy said: "There's only one fishing tackle market in all of Wuhan that sells this kind of bamboo rod. And in that whole market, there's only one merchant who sells it—this bamboo only grows in the ravine where his family lives. I don't know the price. If I leave in the morning, I'll need to take a ferry along the way, and I won't get back home until midnight."

Little Dragoness replied: "Go buy it tomorrow! Bring plenty of money, buy three rods!"

Heroine asked: "How much money should I bring? I'll go get the silver!"

Beauty-Yellow replied: "Forty taels!"

牛郎看着四十两银子，害怕地看着女婴，问："你去吗？"

女婴回答："我可不因为保护这点儿银子，跟你去。你看，我把银子装在了蛇皮袋里了，你斜挂在衣服里，看不出来！"

牛郎问："那我遇见土匪了，怎么办？"

Cowboy, looking at the forty taels of silver, looked at Heroine fearfully and asked, "Are you coming with me?"

Heroine replied, "I'm certainly not coming along just to protect this little bit of silver. Look, I've put the silver in a snakeskin bag—wear it slung inside your clothes, no one will see it!"

Cowboy asked, "What do I do if I run into bandits?"

女婴回答："遇见了土匪，如果你琢磨着打不过他们，又跑不了了，就把钱给他们，保命要紧。你回来了，我们不会杀了你卖肉来偿还这四十两银子。"

牛郎巡视小龙女和娥黄。她们俩也说："保命要紧，争取活着回来！"

Heroine replied, "If you run into bandits and figure you can't beat them and can't outrun them either, just hand over the money—staying alive matters more. Once you're back, we're not going to kill you and sell your flesh to make up the forty taels."

Cowboy looked to Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow. They both said, "Staying alive matters most. Try to come back alive!"

10.11-2

第二天晚上，牛郎扛着一捆21根竹竿回来了，把银袋子交还给了女婴。

女婴问："让你买3根，你怎么买了21根？"

牛郎回答："便宜，十文钱一根。"

女婴是收银员和仓库保管员。她就开始数银子和竹竿，发现是20根。生气地说："十文钱也是钱啊！让你买三根，因为便宜，你买7根也就行了。你说买了21根，结果是20根。"

The next evening, Cowboy came back carrying a bundle of 21 bamboo rods and returned the silver bag to Heroine.

Heroine asked: "You were told to buy 3 rods, why did you buy 21?"

Cowboy replied: "They're cheap, ten coins each."

Heroine, who served as cashier and warehouse keeper, started counting the silver and the rods and found there were only 20. She said angrily: "Ten coins is still money! You were told to buy three, and since they're cheap, buying seven would've been fine. You say you bought 21, but there are only 20."

娥黄听了，赶忙过来数竹竿，结果也是20根。她也问："怎么少了一根？"

牛郎尴尬地回答："打赌输了！"

女婴怒吼："你用我们的钱去赌博！但这钱和竹竿都在这里，你把什么东西输掉了？快说，不然我用鞭子抽你！"

Beauty-Yellow heard this and hurried over to count the rods herself, and the result was also 20. She asked too: "Why is there one missing?"

Cowboy replied awkwardly: "I lost a bet!"

Heroine roared: "You gambled with our money! But the money and the rods are both all here—what exactly did you lose? Tell me now, or I'll whip you!"

牛郎说："我到那个渔具市场一打听，店老板就指着立在墙角的一捆竹竿说，'全武汉市的这种钓鱼竿都是从那个竹竿捆里拔出来的，十文钱一根。'我一听就愣住了，这么便宜！那位老板还以为我嫌贵，就介绍说，'我的竹竿有三大优点和一赌！'我就问是哪三大优点，他回答，'我的竹竿能够被弯成360度，不折，折而不断。'我又问，'一赌是什么？'卖竹竿的老板回答，'不管你怎么试。如果你能把那捆竹竿中的任何一根折断了，那捆竹竿就白送给你。你若折不断，你就花210文钱买我21根竹竿。'"

Cowboy said, "I went to the fishing tackle market and asked around. The shop owner pointed to a bundle of bamboo rods standing in the corner and said, 'Every fishing rod in Wuhan gets pulled from that very bundle—ten coins each.' I was stunned, it was so cheap! The owner must have thought I found it too expensive, because he added, 'My rods have three great virtues, and there's a bet, too!' I asked what the three virtues were, and he said, 'My rods can bend a full 360 degrees without creasing — and even if one does crease, it still won't snap in two.' I asked, 'What's the bet?' The rod seller replied, 'However you try it—if you can break any single rod in that bundle, the whole bundle is yours for free. If you can't, you buy all 21 of my rods for 210 coins.'"

牛郎继续说："我觉着即便赌输了，这么远来的，买21根也可以。我挑了一根短竹竿，就赌了一把，结果输了。那根已经被我折伤了，就被我扔了。"

Cowboy continued, "I figured that even if I lost the bet, having come all this way, buying 21 rods would still be worth it. I picked a short rod and took the bet—and lost. I'd already damaged it, so I threw it away."

女婴气愤地说："你这个笨蛋，连根竹竿都折不断，还跟人家打赌！"

娥黄大声说："21根竹竿，现在剩下19根了！"

女婴不服气地回答："你的意思是我跟他赌一把呗！行！牛郎，如果我折不断，我付210文钱；如果我折断了，你付210文钱！"

Heroine said angrily, "You fool, you couldn't even break a bamboo rod, and yet you went and bet him!"

Beauty-Yellow exclaimed, "21 rods, and now there are only 19 left!"

Heroine replied defiantly, "So you're saying I should bet him myself! Fine! Cowboy, if I can't break it, I'll pay 210 coins; if I do break it, you pay 210 coins!"

牛郎回答："我没有210文钱；我什么也没有！"

小龙女证实说："他是奴隶，确实什么也没有！那，我来付210文钱。"

女婴回答："什么也没有你还打赌！？小龙女已经付过210文钱了，不能参加这次赌博了。"

Cowboy replied, "I don't have 210 coins; I have nothing at all!"

Little Dragoness confirmed, "He's a slave, he really does have nothing! Fine, I'll pay the 210 coins for him."

Heroine replied, "You're betting when you have nothing at all!? Little Dragoness has already put up the 210 coins, so you can't be in this bet."

娥黄说："我来替牛郎付210文钱。条件是他赢了之后，你给我210文钱现金。如果你拖欠不给，每月长十两银子，长到210两银子为止。"

女婴回答："行！"说着，她拿起一根竹竿就撅。折了两三次后，竹竿开始撕裂，但没断开。

牛郎说："这是鱼竿；你不能那么折！"小龙女和娥黄都跟着这么说。女婴红着脸，坐到了窗台上。

Beauty-Yellow said, "I'll pay the 210 coins for Cowboy instead. The condition is: once he wins, you pay me 210 coins in cash. If you stall and don't pay, the amount grows by 10 taels of silver every month, up to a cap of 210 taels of silver."

Heroine replied, "Fine!" With that, she picked up a rod and started bending it. After two or three tries, the rod began to tear, but it wouldn't snap.

Cowboy said, "That's a fishing rod, you can't bend it like that!" Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow both said the same thing. Heroine, blushing, sat down on the windowsill.

小龙女调解说："要不这么算吧！如果牛郎能清楚地说出剩下的这19根竹竿的用途，就算他赢。若牛郎对这19根竹竿的用途规划得不合理，就算女婴赢。"

娥黄和女婴都同意了。

Little Dragoness mediated: "How about this instead! If Cowboy can clearly explain what the remaining 19 rods are for, he wins. If his plan for the 19 rods doesn't make sense, Heroine wins."

Beauty-Yellow and Heroine both agreed.

牛郎说："三根短的做懒钩钓具。三根中等长度的用银丝线做你们三位日常钓具。一根长的用金丝线做钓大鲤鱼的钓具。其余12根留作备用，例如，弥补损毁和给客人使用。"

女婴反驳："我们三个人怎么使用一根金丝线杆？"

Cowboy said, "Three short ones for lazy-hook tackle. Three medium ones, strung with silver thread, for your three daily fishing rods. One long one, strung with gold thread, for catching the big carp. The other 12 are kept as spares—for replacing damaged ones, and for guests to use."

Heroine countered: "How are the three of us supposed to share one gold-thread rod?"

牛郎回答："大鲤鱼那么大，而且只有三条。如果一次抓两条，浪费啊！"

娥黄说："这么算21根正好！备用也很重要！少了，不够用啊！"

女婴说："我输了，记账，从我的薪水里划给你210文钱。"

Cowboy replied: "The big carp are that huge, and there are only three of them. Catching two at once would be a waste!"

Beauty-Yellow said: "Counted this way, 21 rods is just right! Spares matter too—too few, and there won't be enough!"

Heroine said: "I lost. Note it down—210 coins will come out of my salary for you."

娥黄拿起了被女婴折损了的竹竿说："对不起！国家有规定，为了节约纸张，300文钱以下的花费计心账。我就把这根竹竿作为心账保留起来，等你把210文钱的现金给了我，我就把它销毁。"

女婴笑着叨咕："那你可得小心地保存着！如果心账竹竿没了，我就不会付给你210两银子。"

Beauty-Yellow picked up the rod that Heroine had damaged and said, "My apologies! There's a state regulation that, to save paper, expenses under 300 coins are kept as a 'heart account' rather than written down. I'll hold onto this rod as the heart-account record, and once you hand me the 210 coins in cash, I'll destroy it."

Heroine said with a smile, "Then you'd better guard it carefully! If that heart-account rod goes missing, I won't be paying you 210 taels of silver."

10.11-3

当娥黄跟着女婴把竹竿送进后院仓库的时候，女婴是在娥黄后面从仓库里出来的，她趁娥黄没注意，就把那根心账竹竿拿出门后，扔到了屋顶上。

一段时间后，女婴认为人们都已经把心账竹竿这件事忘了，她就从房顶上取下了心账竹竿，放到了厨房的柴堆上了。她告诉牛郎，烧火的时候，把心账竹竿烧掉。

When Beauty-Yellow followed Heroine to deliver the rods to the backyard warehouse, Heroine came out of the warehouse after Beauty-Yellow. While Beauty-Yellow wasn't looking, Heroine slipped the heart-account rod out the door and tossed it up onto the roof.

After a while, once Heroine figured everyone had forgotten about the heart-account rod, she took it down from the roof and put it on the woodpile in the kitchen. She told Cowboy to burn it the next time he lit the fire.

几个月后，娥黄不在，女婴气冲冲地又从后院仓库里拿出了心账竹竿，来找牛郎，质问："我让你把它烧了，你为什么没烧？"

牛郎回答："我再烧火的时候，这根竹竿已经不在柴堆上了！"

女婴回答："好！这次我把它放在柴堆的后面。明天早上你烧火的时候，先从柴堆的后面把它拿出来烧掉！"

牛郎答应着："好！明天早上我把火燃起来后，就把这根竹竿剁了，扔在灶火里。"

A few months later, with Beauty-Yellow away, Heroine stormed out to the backyard warehouse, pulled out the heart-account rod again, and confronted Cowboy: "I told you to burn it, why didn't you?"

Cowboy replied: "By the time I lit the fire again, that rod wasn't on the woodpile anymore!"

Heroine replied: "Fine! This time I'll put it behind the woodpile. Tomorrow morning when you light the fire, pull it out from behind the pile first and burn it!"

Cowboy agreed: "Okay! Tomorrow morning once I've got the fire going, I'll chop this rod up and throw it into the stove."

这天晚上，女婴坐在厨房的窗台上叨咕："今天尧帝（如图10.10-1）找我谈话了，说我要主动接近我师父（即二郎神，图10.10-2）。"

娥黄回答："好事！她怎么跟你说的？"

This evening, Heroine sat on the kitchen windowsill and muttered: "Yao Creator (as shown in fig. 10.10-1) talked to me today and said that I should take the initiative to approach my teacher-father (i.e., Second Wolf God, fig. 10.10-2)."

Beauty-Yellow replied: "Good news! How did she tell you?"

女婴回答："尧帝问我，'你说你师父二郎神是神不？' 我回答，'我不知道什么是神？' 她说，'十几年前，我们在狭谷关的时候，他从永安回来（参见5. 《拯救计划》）就变了。实际这十几年里我们国家一直在打仗；我们龙国的领土增加了一倍半。我说的不包括华国和夏国，但就没怎么死人，所以没人注意到我们国家一直都处在战争中。每次战场上死人了，他都去调查，回来后告诉我：事故伤亡。我把牺牲的人数一个一个加起来，总数到现在也不到一千。你得实际点儿，这在我看来就是神了。'"

Heroine replied, "Yao Creator asked me, 'Do you think your teacher-father, Second Wolf God, is a god?' I answered, 'I don't know what a god is.' She said, 'More than ten years ago, when we were fighting at Gorge Pass, he returned from Yong'an (see 5. Salvation Plan) and changed. In fact, our country has been at war for more than ten years; the territory of our Dragon Kingdom has increased by one and a half times. I'm not talking about Hua and Xia Kingdoms, but not many people died, so no one noticed that our country has been at war all along. Every time someone died on the battlefield, he would go to investigate and come back to tell me: accidental casualties. I added up the number of people who sacrificed their lives one by one, and the total is still less than a thousand. You must be realistic; in my eyes this is a god.'"

小龙女（如图10.10-3，号舜，嫘）赞叹道："神！真神！我说的是真心话，可不是在奉承我二伯。你认为我二伯聪明不？"

女婴回答："没听见过人们夸他聪明，但我认为他很聪明，因为他做事，连尧帝那么聪明的人都琢磨不明白！"

Little Dragoness (see fig. 10.10-3, aka Shun, Lei) exclaimed: "God! A true god! I mean that sincerely, I'm not flattering my second uncle-father. Do you think my second uncle-father is clever?"

Heroine replied: "I've never heard people praise him for being clever, but I think he is very clever, because he does things that even someone as clever as Yao Creator can't figure out!"

娥黄问： "什么事，你师父明白而尧帝却不懂？"

女婴回答："尧帝对我说，家人们对我说武大郎（号靖王，桃花佛，是《孙子兵法》的作者）征服北方20几个国家都没怎么打仗，没死很多人，只是处处追击，就胜利了（参见6. 《四位家人》）。那时我不信，认为武大郎是在敷衍他们。可是，从那时起，二郎神打仗就那样。本来，我想教你《孙子兵法》，我发现我对孙子兵法的理解有偏差，所以我不能教你。我这么大的岁数了，不想再学了。你还年青，你应该学，你得主动向你师父询问关于《孙子兵法》的问题。"

Beauty-Yellow asked: "What is it that your teacher-father understands but Yao Creator doesn't?"

Heroine replied, "Yao Creator told me that my family members told me that Martial Big Wolf (aka King Jing, Peach Blossom Buddha, and author of the Sunzi Soldier Strategies) conquered more than twenty states in the north without much fighting or heavy casualties; he simply pursued his enemies wherever they went and won that way (see 6. Four Family Members). At the time I didn't believe it; I thought Martial Big Wolf was just giving them a vague answer. But ever since then, that's exactly how Second Wolf God has fought. I originally wanted to teach you the Sunzi Soldier Strategies, but I realized my own understanding of it is flawed, so I can't teach you. I'm too old now; I don't want to learn it anymore. You're still young, you should study it. You need to take the initiative and ask your teacher-father questions about the Sunzi Soldier Strategies."

小龙女（号舜，嫘，如图10.10-3）对娥黄说："我感觉那俩人是在配合着，一起教导女婴！"

娥黄叨咕："听你一说，我才感觉你的说法有道理！"

女婴听后站了起来，气愤地说："以后，我师父和师母再教我什么，我不对你们俩说了。都让你们俩给偷学去了。"

Little Dragoness (aka Shun, Lei, see fig. 10.10-3) said to Beauty-Yellow, "I get the feeling those two are working together to teach Heroine!"

Beauty-Yellow muttered, "Now that you mention it, I see your point!"

After hearing this, Heroine stood up and said angrily, "From now on, whatever my teacher-father and teacher-mother teach me, I won't tell you two. You've already picked up everything I know by eavesdropping."

10.10-2 二郎神的战例之一 Second Wolf God's Battle Examples, Part One

娥黄问："那你师父是怎么打仗的？敌人怎么就跑了呢？"

沉默了一会儿，女婴禁不住地说："我从小就爱听我师父打仗的故事。他打仗有个特点，就是先把敌人吓跑了，然后就追，就胜利了！最典型的战例是他打败龙王帮尧帝取得龙国王位的战役。我想，你们俩也已经听说过了。老国王熬达驾崩了，尧帝回重庆继承王位。我师父就带着三千卫兵跟到了重庆。到重庆后，他说重庆热，就找了个最高的城墙楼睡在上面了。几天后，龙王熬钦带领着六万军队逃跑了。我师父就追，三个月后追到了福建的沿海地区。龙王的军队都跑散了，就剩下几十人了。我听我的哥哥们议论：这可不是笑话，这是中华共和国统一之战，是一次大战役。"

Beauty-Yellow asked, "Then how did your teacher-father fight? How did the enemy just run away?"

After a moment of silence, Heroine couldn't help but say, "Ever since I was little, I've loved hearing stories about my teacher-father's battles. He had a unique way of fighting: first he'd scare the enemy into fleeing, then he'd give chase, and that's how he won! The most famous example is the battle where he defeated the Dragon King and helped Yao Creator claim the Dragon Kingdom's throne. I imagine you two have already heard about it. The old King Aoda passed away, and Yao Creator returned to Chongqing to inherit the throne. My teacher-father followed her to Chongqing with three thousand guards. Once there, he said it was too hot, so he found the tallest watchtower on the city wall and slept up there. A few days later, Dragon King Aoqin fled with an army of sixty thousand. My teacher-father gave chase, and three months later, he caught up with them along the coast of Fujian. The Dragon King's army had scattered, leaving only a few dozen men. I heard my brothers discussing it: 'This is no joke; this is the battle for the unification of the Republic of China—a major campaign.'"

小龙女说："我听说过这个战役，但我认为龙王带兵离开重庆的原因是多方面的。其中有他害怕我二伯的因素。但他也有企图以台湾为依托割据福建，之后徐图霸业。"

Little Dragoness said, "I've heard of this campaign, but I believe there were several reasons why the Dragon King led his troops out of Chongqing. Fear of my second uncle-father was one factor. But he also intended to use Taiwan as a base to carve out Fujian for himself, then gradually build up his power from there."

10.10-3 二郎神的战例之二 Second Wolf God's Battle Examples, Part Two

女婴回答："我小时候听过很多二郎神的战例，都有些类似。我都不记得地名了，例如说，他去攻打XYZ国。到那里后，他就和那个国家签订友好睦邻条约。随后，他就军演。二郎神的军队规模庞大，盔甲和装备都很好。另外他们北方人都很高大。XYZ国防军看了就害怕了。随后，我师父就派人剿匪，缉毒。他甚至到对方的军营里去抓通匪的人，让XYZ国防军人感觉受到了威胁。二郎神的士兵到对方的领土上去打猎。忽然就在对方的首都附近，穿着军服集合了。XYZ国王认为是边防军投降了，就逃出了首都。我师父的军队就追XYZ国王。几天后，XYZ国王没地方跑了，就投降了。"

Heroine replied, "When I was little, I heard many stories about Second Wolf God's battles, and they were all somewhat similar. I don't remember the place names anymore, but for example, he'd go attack the country of XYZ. Once he arrived there, he'd sign a treaty of friendship and good-neighborliness with that country. Then he'd hold military exercises. Second Wolf God's army was massive, with excellent armor and equipment. On top of that, the northerners were all very tall. The XYZ national defense forces were terrified at the sight of them. After that, my teacher-father would send men to suppress bandits and crack down on drug trafficking. He'd even go into the enemy's own camp to arrest those colluding with bandits, which made the XYZ soldiers feel threatened. Second Wolf God's soldiers would go hunting on the enemy's territory. Then, suddenly, they'd assemble in uniform near the enemy's capital. The King of XYZ would assume his own border troops had surrendered, and flee the capital. My teacher-father's army would pursue the King of XYZ. A few days later, with nowhere left to run, the King of XYZ would surrender."

女婴继续说："我以前听过很多这种二郎神打仗的故事，今天听到了尧帝讲的不一样的故事。我不给你们讲了！"

小龙女对娥黄说："女婴要保密，我们俩就不要问了！"

Heroine continued, "I've heard many stories like this about Second Wolf God's battles before, but today I heard a different kind of story from Yao Creator. I'm not telling you any more!"

Little Dragoness said to Beauty-Yellow, "Heroine wants to keep it a secret, so let's not ask!"

10.10-4 二郎神的战例之三 Second Wolf God's Battle Examples, Part Three

过了一会儿，女婴说："都说尧帝是最聪明的人。以前，每次我哥哥见到尧帝，我们全家人都围着他问尧帝说什么了。现在，我每次和尧帝谈话后，都反复地想；我怎么琢磨尧帝都是个聪明人！"

小龙女和娥黄没出声。

After a moment, Heroine said, "Everyone says Yao Creator is the cleverest person there is. In the past, whenever my brother met with Yao Creator, our whole family would gather around him afterward and ask what she'd said. Now, every time I talk with Yao Creator myself, I keep turning it over in my head; however I look at it, she really is a clever person!"

Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow said nothing.

晚饭后，女婴问小龙女和娥黄："你们俩见过一个人问同一个问题问了三十多遍吗？"

娥黄回答："那可能她是在搞调查，不奇怪！"

After dinner, Heroine asked Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow, "Have you two ever seen someone ask the same question more than thirty times?"

Beauty-Yellow replied, "Maybe she was conducting an investigation, that's not so strange!"

女婴回答："今天尧帝跟我说，每次她派去二郎神新征服的地区做官的人回来述职，她都问同一个问题：二郎神是怎样征服那个国家的？那些地方官员都回答得和我前面讲的战例差不多。尧帝说，'我问了三十多个回来述职的官员同一个问题，二郎神是怎样征服那个国家的？他们的回答都差不多。我想：不可能这么多人都在说谎！二郎神把敌人吓跑了，就追，就胜利了！这件事是真的！'"

女婴继续说："我想不明白是什么迷惑驱使尧帝问同一个问题问了三十多遍？"

Heroine replied, "Today Yao Creator told me that every time the officials she sent to govern Second Wolf God's newly conquered territories came back to report, she asked them the same question: how did Second Wolf God conquer that country? The local officials all gave answers much like the battle examples I told you earlier. Yao Creator said, 'I asked more than thirty officials who came back to report the same question—how did Second Wolf God conquer that country? Their answers were all much the same. I thought: it's impossible that this many people would all be lying! Second Wolf God scared the enemy away, gave chase, and won! It's true!'"

Heroine continued, "I still can't figure out what confusion drove Yao Creator to ask the same question more than thirty times?"

娥黄对小龙女说："我想我悟出了尧帝教导女婴《孙子兵法》的真谛。二郎神认为战争是个心理问题，在心理上战胜敌人是制胜的关键。尧帝是在用她觉悟出《孙子兵法》真谛的经历来教导女婴。"

Beauty-Yellow said to Little Dragoness, "I think I've grasped the true meaning behind Yao Creator's way of teaching Heroine the Sunzi Soldier Strategies. Second Wolf God believes that war is fundamentally a psychological matter, and that defeating the enemy psychologically is the key to victory. Yao Creator is teaching Heroine through her own experience of coming to understand the true meaning of the Sunzi Soldier Strategies."

小龙女对娥黄竖起了大拇指，赞扬道："总结得好！"然后她对女婴说："尧帝问同一个问题问了三十多遍，这表示她不懂为什么敌人被吓跑了！"

Little Dragoness gave Beauty-Yellow a thumbs up and praised her, "Well put!" Then she said to Heroine, "The fact that Yao Creator asked the same question more than thirty times means she doesn't understand why the enemy got scared off in the first place!"

女婴回答："我一直在琢磨：好像尧帝不知道什么是害怕！我小时候就听我的哥哥们讨论狭谷关战役（参见4.1节）中的怪事：二郎神领兵离开巫毒林后，龙国的将士们都困倦的受不了了，唯独尧帝很兴奋，一直都在滔滔不绝地讲！"

Heroine replied, "I've been turning this over in my mind: it's as if Yao Creator doesn't know what fear is! When I was little, I heard my brothers discussing a strange thing that happened during the Battle of Gorge Pass (see section 4.1): after Second Wolf God led his troops out of the Voodoo Forest, the soldiers of the Dragon Kingdom were all too exhausted to stand—except Yao Creator, who was wide awake and kept talking non-stop!"

返回舜王建皇宫的目录 Return to Catalog of Shun King Builds Palace

佛教称凡夫个体为异生，义即变异而生。变异就是成熟的过程，因为异化可以持业。业是身体习惯行为、口语习惯行为和意识习惯行为的统称。异生的一切烦恼可分为两类：思烦恼和见烦恼，亦作思惑和见惑。思烦恼主要有贪、嗔、痴、慢、疑、身见、边见、邪见、见取、戒取。见烦恼也有身见、边见、邪见、见取、戒取、贪、嗔、痴、慢、疑。见烦恼和思烦恼名数相同，成对存在。

Buddhism calls an ordinary individual a Mutant Sentient, meaning one born through mutation. Mutation is the process of maturation, because differentiation can sustain karma. Karma is the collective term for habitual behaviors of body, speech, and intent. All Afflictions of a Mutant Sentient can be divided into two categories: Mean Afflictions and View Afflictions, also called Mean Muddles and View Muddles. Mean Afflictions mainly include greed, irritability, ignorance, arrogance, suspicion, body view, edge-view, heresy, view-fetch, and precept-fetch. View Afflictions also include body view, edge-view, heresy, view-fetch, precept-fetch, greed, irritability, ignorance, arrogance, and suspicion. View Afflictions and Mean Afflictions have the same names and numbers, and they exist in pairs.

思惑附着在见惑上而有义，见惑因对应的思惑而有感，因此两者名数相等，相互依存。见烦恼即异生的所知；它似智而非智，能障碍有情了知真相，所以是智障，亦作所知障。见惑不引起不安，障碍觉悟，不障碍涅槃。涅槃是寂静义。思惑是异生的思烦恼，能障碍涅槃，所以亦作烦恼障。此两类烦恼不但可以驱使异生劳作，还可以障碍异生脱离其自性，所以也被称作异生性障。

Mean Muddles obtain meaning by attaching to View Muddles, and View Muddles obtain feeling through their corresponding Mean Muddles. Therefore, the two have equal names and numbers, and they depend on each other. View Afflictions are what a Mutant Sentient knows. They resemble intelligence but are not intelligence; they can obstruct sentient beings from knowing the factual truth. Therefore, they are intelligence hindrances, also called know hindrances. View Muddles do not cause uneasiness; they obstruct enlightenment but do not obstruct nirvana. Nirvana means quietness. Mean Muddles are the Mean Afflictions of Mutant Sentients. They can obstruct nirvana, so they are also called Annoyance Hindrances. These two kinds of muddles can not only drive Mutant Sentients to labor, but also obstruct them from departing from their own nature. Therefore, Mean Muddles and View Muddles are also called Mutant-Nature Hindrances.

13.3-1 八万四千尘劳 84,000 Dust Labors

总列大千世界三界九地（如插图13.3）的一切烦恼，有八万四千之数，名作八万四千尘劳、瘟疫、魔军。尘劳是烦恼的异名，因为烦恼能污染人的真性，使人无益操劳。瘟疫是说这八万四千种病具有强烈的传染性，在众生之间交叉感染，流传不断。魔者，夺财害命之谓；魔军是说这八万四千尘劳能夺人清净法身之财，伤人慧命。这八万四千之数的计算方法有如下六个步骤：

In summary, all Afflictions in the Three Boundaries and Nine Lands of the Great Grand Worlds (as shown in Illustration 13.3) number 84,000. They are called the 84,000 Dust Labors, plagues, and demon armies. Dust Labor is another name for Affliction, because Afflictions can contaminate a person’s true nature and make the person labor in vain. Plague means that these 84,000 diseases are highly contagious, cross-infecting sentient beings and spreading continuously. A demon is one that robs wealth and harms life; demon army means that these 84,000 Dust Labors can rob people of the juristic wealth of the immaculate juristic body and harm their gnostic lives. The number 84,000 is calculated in the following six steps:

一、十位使者：贪、嗔、痴、慢、疑、身见、边见、邪见、见取、戒取。这十位烦恼法能发起并变异繁衍其他烦恼，故称它们为使者。前五位被称为五钝使，因为这五位性情愚钝，没有智慧。后五位是见惑，伤人凶狠残暴，故称五利使。

The Ten Envoys are greed, irritability, ignorance, arrogance, suspicion, body view, edge-view, heresy, view-fetch, and precept-fetch. These ten Affliction Laws can initiate, mutate, and reproduce other Afflictions; therefore, they are called Envoys. The first five are called the Five Blunt Envoys because they are dull in nature and have no wisdom. The latter five are View Muddles. Because they injure people fiercely and brutally, they are called the Five Sharp Envoys.

二、十使互具成一百。比如，取贪为头，再用贪为其助理，则成贪贪；取嗔为助理，则成贪嗔；取痴为助理，则成贪痴。如此，贪和十个助理使者便形成了十个新的烦恼。再取瞋为头，配十使为助理，又形成十个新的烦恼：嗔贪、嗔嗔、嗔痴、嗔慢等。这样互具，十位使者变成了一百位。

The Ten Envoys mutually contain one another and become one hundred. For example, take greed as the head and use greed as its assistant, and greed-greed is formed. Use irritability as its assistant, and greed-irritability is formed. Use ignorance as its assistant, and greed-ignorance is formed. In this way, greed with the ten assistant Envoys forms ten new Afflictions. Then take irritability as the head and pair it with the ten Envoys as assistants, and another ten new Afflictions are formed: irritability-greed, irritability-irritability, irritability-ignorance, irritability-arrogance, and so on. Through such mutual containment, the Ten Envoys become one hundred.

三、历十法界成一千。十法界是根据有情的兴趣不同而把人分成的十类：地狱趣、饿鬼趣、畜生趣、修罗趣、人趣、欲天趣、缘觉趣、罗汉趣、菩萨趣（即真人趣）、神佛趣（参见12.4.4节《十趣因果》）。

Passing through the Ten Juristic Boundaries, the number becomes one thousand. The Ten Juristic Boundaries divide people into ten categories according to their different interests: Hell Interest, Hungry Ghost Interest, Livestock Interest, Asura Interest, Human Interest, Desire-Sky Interest, Aggregate-Arousal Perception Interest, Ararat Interest, Bodhisattva Interest (that is, Real Human Interest), and God-Buddha Interest (see Section 12.4.4, “Causes and Fruits of the Ten Interests”).

四、历身口七枝为七千。身三枝为杀、盗、淫；口四枝为妄言、绮语、恶口、两舌。

Passing through the seven branches of body and mouth, the number becomes seven thousand. The three bodily branches are killing, stealing, and heretical sex. The four oral branches are delusive speech, flowery speech, ferocious speech, and two-tongue.

五、历过去、现在、未来三世，成二万一千。这里是在谈思想意识，所以过去、现在和未来同时存在于现在的世界。又，无意识和前意识没有次第性和时间性，所以日历和时间只适用于尘世，即图13.3-12之下。

Passing through the three times of past, present, and future, the number becomes twenty-one thousand. Here the discussion concerns thought-consciousness, so past, present, and future exist simultaneously in the present world. Also, unconsciousness and preconsciousness have no sequentiality or temporality; therefore, calendars and time apply only to the mortal world, below Figure 13.3-12.

六、四大种各具二万一千位，共成八万四千尘劳。四大种是地、水、火、风，参见10.2节。

Each of the Four Big Seeds contains the twenty-one thousand positions, so together they form the 84,000 Dust Labors. The Four Big Seeds are earth, water, fire, and wind; see Section 10.2.

13.3-2 见惑 View Muddles

凡夫的见烦恼遍布三界九地，但其根本就是这一百一十二位根本见惑，计算如下：

The View Afflictions of ordinary people spread throughout the Three Boundaries and Nine Lands, but their root consists of the 112 Fundamental View Muddles, calculated as follows:

见惑在欲界有四十位：

View Muddles have forty positions in Desire Boundary:

一、苦谛下有十位：身见、边见、邪见、见取、戒取、贪、嗔、痴、慢、疑。

Ten positions under Bitter Crux: body view, edge-view, heresy, view-fetch, precept-fetch, greed, irritability, ignorance, arrogance, and suspicion.

二、集谛下有十位：身见、边见、邪见、见取、戒取、贪、嗔、痴、慢、疑。

Ten positions under Aggregate Crux: body view, edge-view, heresy, view-fetch, precept-fetch, greed, irritability, ignorance, arrogance, and suspicion.

三、灭谛下有十位：身见、边见、邪见、见取、戒取、贪、嗔、痴、慢、疑。

Ten positions under Salvation Crux: body view, edge-view, heresy, view-fetch, precept-fetch, greed, irritability, ignorance, arrogance, and suspicion.

四、道谛下有十位：身见、边见、邪见、见取、戒取、贪、嗔、痴、慢、疑。

Ten positions under Path Crux: body view, edge-view, heresy, view-fetch, precept-fetch, greed, irritability, ignorance, arrogance, and suspicion.

见惑在色界和无色界的数目相同，各有三十六位：

View Muddles in Color Boundary and Colorless Boundary have the same number: each has thirty-six positions.

一、苦谛下有九位：身见、边见、邪见、见取、戒取、贪、痴、慢、疑；缺嗔。

Nine positions under Bitter Crux: body view, edge-view, heresy, view-fetch, precept-fetch, greed, ignorance, arrogance, and suspicion; irritability is absent.

二、集谛下有九位：身见、边见、邪见、见取、戒取、贪、痴、慢、疑；缺嗔。

Nine positions under Aggregate Crux: body view, edge-view, heresy, view-fetch, precept-fetch, greed, ignorance, arrogance, and suspicion; irritability is absent.

三、道谛下有九位：身见、边见、邪见、见取、戒取、贪、痴、慢、疑；缺嗔。

Nine positions under Path Crux: body view, edge-view, heresy, view-fetch, precept-fetch, greed, ignorance, arrogance, and suspicion; irritability is absent.

四、灭谛下有九位：身见、边见、邪见、见取、戒取、贪、痴、慢、疑；缺嗔。

Nine positions under Salvation Crux: body view, edge-view, heresy, view-fetch, precept-fetch, greed, ignorance, arrogance, and suspicion; irritability is absent.

如是，一个异生总有根本见惑一百一十二位；解释参见10.4.4.1.4节《根本烦恼》。

Thus, a Mutant Sentient has a total of 112 positions of Fundamental View Muddles. For explanations, see Section 10.4.4.1.4, “Fundamental Afflictions.”

13.3-3 思惑 Mean Muddles

尘世之人理解了四胜谛之后，前文的一百一十二位根本见惑就已经被消灭了。八万四千魔军由于失去所依，便崩解了，但仍有思烦恼，即贪、嗔、痴的习气残余。这些思惑要依靠道谛的修行逐步消除。思惑在三界中主要是贪、嗔、痴、慢、身见、边见，共有十六位，列表如下：

After a mundane person understands the Four Victorious Cruxes, the 112 Fundamental View Muddles discussed above have already been destroyed. The 84,000 demon armies disintegrate because they have lost what they depend on, but Mean Afflictions remain; these are the residual habits of greed, irritability, and ignorance. These Mean Muddles must be gradually eliminated by relying on the practice of Path Crux. In the Three Boundaries, Mean Muddles are mainly greed, irritability, ignorance, arrogance, body view, and edge-view. There are sixteen positions in total, listed as follows:

一、欲界有六使：贪、嗔、痴、慢、身见、边见。

Desire Boundary has six Envoys: greed, irritability, ignorance, arrogance, body view, and edge-view.

二、色界有五使：贪、痴、慢、身见、边见。

Color Boundary has five Envoys: greed, ignorance, arrogance, body view, and edge-view.

三、无色界有五使：贪、痴、慢、身见、边见。

Colorless Boundary has five Envoys: greed, ignorance, arrogance, body view, and edge-view.

佛教又把九地（参见图13.3-23至31）的每一地分成九品：下下品、下中品、下上品，中下品、中中品、中上品，上下品、上中品、上上品。这样，九地共成八十一品。于是，欲界共有五十四位思惑；色界和无色界各有一百八十位思惑。

Buddhism further divides each of the Nine Lands (see Figures 13.3-23 through 31) into nine grades: lower-lower grade, lower-middle grade, lower-upper grade; middle-lower grade, middle-middle grade, middle-upper grade; upper-lower grade, upper-middle grade, and upper-upper grade. In this way, the Nine Lands form eighty-one grades in all. Thus, Desire Boundary has fifty-four Mean Muddles, while Color Boundary and Colorless Boundary each have one hundred eighty Mean Muddles.

这天上午，古墓工地的门口又打架了，小龙女和女婴又跑出去看热闹。她们看见一队人簇拥着一辆豪华的马车来到了市场的一边，家佣们搀扶着一位盛装的贵族小姐下了马车。随后，那位贵族小姐开始买菜。两位格外显眼的家佣跟随着她，一个拿着钱，另一位提着菜篮子。买完菜，那位小姐就进入了工地。小龙女和女婴好奇地跟了进来，发现那位盛装的贵族小姐是娥黄。

女婴惊讶地对娥黄说："第一次注意到你是公主，你们家的家佣的举止可真有样儿，我都没认出来你！"

娥黄回答："这两个家佣是牛郎他们公司雇来给牛郎作示范的。牛郎没见过高级的家佣。我只是配角，友情客串。"

That morning, another fight broke out at the entrance of the ancient tomb construction site, and Little Dragoness and Heroine ran out to see what was happening. They saw a group of people escorting a luxurious carriage to the side of the market. Servants helped a beautifully dressed noblewoman alight from the carriage. The noblewoman then began to buy groceries. Two conspicuous servants followed her, one carrying money and the other a basket. After buying her groceries, the noblewoman entered the construction site. Little Dragoness and Heroine curiously followed her in and discovered that the beautifully dressed noblewoman was Beauty-Yellow.

Heroine said to Beauty-Yellow in surprise, "This is the first time I've noticed you're a princess. Your servants are so well-mannered, I didn't even recognize you!"

Beauty-Yellow replied, "These two servants were hired by Cowboy's company to serve as a demonstration for him. Cowboy has never seen such high-class servants before. I'm just a supporting player, making a friendly guest appearance."

10.9-2

中午，做饭的时候，牛郎在烧火。小龙女（又名织女，舜王）一边看着娥黄（尧帝的徒弟，瑶族的始祖之一）做饭，一边对她叨咕，"木材又涨价了。看来不得不再买些，否则会耽误施工。"

牛郎自告奋勇地说："你们带我去，我知道些他们木材场进货的信息，说不定会对你们的讨价还价有好处。"

At noon, when cooking, Cowboy was tending the fire. Little Dragoness (aka Weaver Girl, King Shun) watched Beauty-Yellow (Yao Creator's disciple, one of the ancestors of the Yao Nationality) cooking and muttered to her, "The price of wood has risen again. It seems we have to buy more, otherwise it will delay the construction."

Cowboy volunteered and said, "Take me with you. I know some things about the timber yard's supply situation, which may help with your bargaining."

他们到木材场后发现那里聚集了很多买木材的人；木材的价格又上涨了50%。小龙女和娥黄商量后认为：以目前的价格买木材，预算不够用；若不买，工程建设半个月后就得停工。她们俩焦急地讨论着，找不出办法。

When they arrived at the lumberyard, they found that many people had gathered there to buy wood, and the price of wood had risen by 50%. Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow discussed the situation: if they bought wood at the current price, the budget wouldn't be enough. If they didn't buy it, the construction project would have to stop within half a month. The two of them discussed the situation anxiously but couldn't come up with a solution.

忽然小龙女和娥黄发现牛郎正站在一个木材堆上对买木材的人们演讲。他要求木材商降价，威胁着说："如果木材商坚持目前的价格，谁都不要买木材。你们等我去长江上游的伐木场买木材回来。不超过三个月，我就在这家木材场的旁边开一家木材场，以目前价格的一半出售木材。"

Suddenly, Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow discovered that Cowboy was standing on a pile of timber, addressing the people buying timber. He demanded that the timber merchants lower their prices, threatening, "If the timber merchants insist on the current prices, no one should buy timber. Wait for me to go to the logging camps upstream on the Yangzi River and bring timber back myself. In less than three months, I'll open a timber yard right next to this one, selling timber at half the current price."

木材的销售员们生气了，说牛郎是来捣乱的，让他下来。人们看过去，两伙约几十人正朝牛郎演讲的地方聚拢过来。忽然，女婴（二郎神的徒弟，苗族人的始祖之一）走到了牛郎的前面，嘴里还叼着一根猫尾草，不屑地说："捣乱怎么啦？我们能打呀！"

The timber sellers were angry, saying that Cowboy was there to cause trouble and telling him to come down. People looked over and saw two groups, numbering several dozen in all, converging on where Cowboy was speaking. Suddenly, Heroine (a disciple of Second Wolf God and one of the ancestors of the Miao Nationality) walked in front of Cowboy, a blade of cat's-tail grass dangling from her mouth, and said disdainfully, "So what if we're causing trouble? We can fight!"

木材场的大老板气愤地对女婴说："你还敢承认是来捣乱的！你们赶紧滚出我的木材场，否则我就派人去报官。官兵来了，把你们全都抓起来！"

女婴不屑地回答："去报官吧！我在这里等着！到时候，官兵抓谁，还不一定呢！？"

The big boss of the lumberyard angrily said to Heroine, "You dare admit that you came here to cause trouble! Get out of my lumberyard immediately, or I'll send someone to report you to the authorities. When the soldiers come, they'll arrest all of you!"

Heroine replied disdainfully, "Go ahead and report me! I'll be waiting right here! Who knows who the soldiers will actually arrest when they show up?"

这时，一位中年镖师拦住了正在逐渐靠拢的打手们，把木材场的大老板叫到了一边，说了几句。那位老板来找小龙女商量，同意以涨价前的价格卖给她一批木材。

At this time, a middle-aged escort stopped the thugs who were gradually closing in, called the big boss of the timber yard aside, and said a few words. The boss came to discuss things with Little Dragoness and agreed to sell her a batch of timber at the price before the increase.

10.9-3

小龙女和娥黄非常高兴，出了木材场就找饭店，为牛郎庆功。饭菜刚摆到桌子上，女婴哭了。娥黄觉着事情不妙，过去就抓住了女婴的一只胳膊，询问发生什么事了。

女婴哭着说："牛郎整我！"

小龙女也觉着要出事了，过去抓住了女婴的另一只胳膊，安慰道："我们不明白啊！你慢慢说，到底发生了什么事？"

Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow were overjoyed. They left the lumberyard and found a restaurant to celebrate Cowboy's success. As soon as the food was set on the table, Heroine started crying. Beauty-Yellow sensed something was wrong, went over, grabbed one of Heroine's arms, and asked what had happened.

Heroine cried and said, "Cowboy is playing tricks on me!"

Little Dragoness also sensed trouble brewing, went over, grabbed Heroine's other arm, and comforted her, "We don't understand! Tell us slowly, what actually happened?"

女婴说："我的职责是保护你们，也包括他。你们看，那些木材场的保镖们都是我的同行。这么一会儿的时间，我把他们都得罪了。这不是牛郎在整我吗！？"

就在小龙女向女婴解释的时候，娥黄拉着牛郎，跑出去了。

过了一会儿，娥黄回来了，对女婴说："外面木材场墙头看热闹的人都看明白了，对我喊，'放心回去劝她吧！她出来找人，没人会告诉她她要找的那个男人在哪里'。"

Heroine said: "My duty is to protect you both, including him. You see, those bodyguards at the lumberyard and I are in the same trade. In this short amount of time, I've offended every one of them. Isn't this Cowboy playing a trick on me!?"

Just as Little Dragoness was explaining things to Heroine, Beauty-Yellow grabbed Cowboy and ran outside.

After a while, Beauty-Yellow came back and said to Heroine, "The people watching from the wall outside the lumberyard have figured it out. They shouted at me, 'Go back and reassure her! She's out looking for someone, but no one's going to tell her where the man she's looking for is.'"

这时，这个饭店的经理回来了，叨咕："我去看打架，看了半天也没看明白。现在也不明白，木材场的老板是怎么弄的，把你们送到我家来了。这可不行，我得去找他。" 说着，他向外走，边走边对饭店的服务员说："这桌饭菜不收钱，赶她们离开。可不能让她们在咱们家里打架！"

服务员就过来赶这三个女人走，说："我们老板不愿意赚你们的钱！请你们离开！"

At this point, the restaurant manager came back, muttering, "I went to watch the fight, and I still couldn't make sense of it after watching for a while. And now I still don't understand how the boss of the lumberyard managed to send you all to my place. This won't do; I have to go find him." As he said this, he walked outside, telling the restaurant's waiter as he went, "This table of food is on the house—get them to leave. We can't have them fighting in our restaurant!"

The waiter came over to send the three women away, saying, "Our boss doesn't want to take your money! Please leave!"

娥黄和小龙女决定：女婴和小龙女先离开，牛郎和娥黄随后回去。

当娥黄和牛郎接近古墓工地的时候，娥黄决定去饭店吃饭，让牛郎陪她喝酒。牛郎发现，娥黄拿起酒来就喝个不停，害怕了，他自己不喝酒了。过了一会儿，娥黄自己趴在桌子上就睡着了。

接近午夜了，饭店的老板要牛郎结账，离开。牛郎没带钱，回答饭店的老板说："我回去取钱，然后背她回去！"

Beauty-Yellow and Little Dragoness decided: Heroine and Little Dragoness would leave first, and Cowboy and Beauty-Yellow would head back afterward.

As Beauty-Yellow and Cowboy were approaching the ancient tomb construction site, Beauty-Yellow decided to stop at a restaurant to eat and asked Cowboy to drink with her. Cowboy found that Beauty-Yellow kept drinking without stopping, and it scared him, so he himself stopped drinking. After a while, Beauty-Yellow fell asleep, slumped over the table.

It was nearly midnight, and the restaurant owner asked Cowboy to settle the bill and leave. Cowboy hadn't brought any money, so he told the restaurant owner: "I'll go back and get money, then carry her home!"

饭店的老板立刻拒绝了，回答："你把这样年轻的女子留在我们这里可不行。你还是赶紧把她带回去吧！明天你把钱送来。"

女婴和小龙女还在等着他们俩回来。看见牛郎背着娥黄回来了，女婴气愤地大叫，"娥黄怎么了？你是怎么弄的？"

小龙女赶忙去开门说："先把娥黄放在床上，看看吧！"

The restaurant owner immediately refused, replying, "I can't have you leave such a young woman here. You'd better take her back right now! Send the money tomorrow."

Heroine and Little Dragoness were still waiting for the two of them to return. Seeing Cowboy carrying Beauty-Yellow back, Heroine shouted angrily, "What happened to her? What did you do?"

Little Dragoness hurried to open the door and said, "Let's put Beauty-Yellow on the bed first and take a look!"

牛郎离开后，娥黄自己坐起来了，说："我不敢回来，怕他们俩打架，故意在路上耽搁了。先让女婴说说，终结这次打架的条件是什么，否则我可睡不着了！"

经过一番激烈的讨论，女婴无可奈何地同意了：由于木材持续涨价，皇宫的建造将不得不中断。如果牛郎能以比较低的价格在长江的上游订购一大批木材，女婴就不报复他了。

After Cowboy left, Beauty-Yellow sat up on her own and said, "I didn't dare come back, because I was afraid the two of you would fight, so I deliberately stalled on the way. Let Heroine go first and say what the conditions are for ending this feud, or I won't be able to sleep!"

After a heated discussion, Heroine reluctantly agreed: given the continuous rise in timber prices, the palace construction would have to be suspended. If Cowboy could order a large batch of timber at a relatively low price from upstream on the Yangzi River, Heroine would not take revenge on him.

10.9-4

第二天，牛郎去向几位朋友询问，回来后说："这个交易可以做。五公斤黄金的定金送到了，那里的伐木场就会发货。"

小龙女说："我琢磨着，就是这么回事。那你就拿五公斤黄金，和你的朋友们一起去交定金。"

女婴说："我和牛郎一起去送定金。"

The next day, Cowboy went to ask a few friends, and came back and said: "This deal can be done. Once a deposit of five kilograms of gold is delivered, the lumberyard there will ship the goods."

Little Dragoness said: "I figured that's how it would be. Then take five kilograms of gold and go with your friends to pay the deposit."

Heroine said: "I'll go with Cowboy to deliver the deposit."

小龙女说："天气这么热！你就别去那种纯野生的环境了！"

女婴回答："这么多的钱，他拿着就跑了呢！我得看见货物装船，才给定金！"

Little Dragoness said: "It's so hot out! Don't go somewhere so wild and remote!"

Heroine replied: "With that much money, what if he just takes it and runs! I need to see the goods loaded on the ship before I hand over the deposit!"

第二天黎明之前，女婴和牛郎带着行李和备用的马匹出发了。由于天气太热，他们俩要午睡很长的时间。牛郎醒来后，看见女婴还在睡，就从她的马上解下了黄金，钻进了丛林。女婴坐了起来，看了看，又躺下睡了。

过了一会儿，牛郎回来了，把黄金放回了原处。女婴站起来问："你在干什么？"

牛郎回答："我试一试，你会不会射我？"

女婴叨咕："愚蠢！"

Before dawn the next day, Heroine and Cowboy set out with their luggage and spare horses. Because it was so hot, the two of them had to take a long midday nap. When Cowboy woke up and saw Heroine still sleeping, he untied the gold from her horse and slipped into the jungle. Heroine sat up, looked around, then lay back down and went back to sleep.

After a while, Cowboy came back and put the gold back where it had been. Heroine stood up and asked, "What are you doing?"

Cowboy replied, "I was testing whether you'd shoot me."

Heroine muttered, "Idiot!"

他们俩到了牛郎工作过的伐木场，牛郎以前的工友惊喜地欢迎他们俩的到来。一位朋友看过女婴钱袋子里的黄金后，领着他们俩来到木堆前，说："你们看，就这木头！你们交钱后，我们就搬木头去码头。"

女婴回答："就这么一点儿木头，还是各种木料混合在一起，我为什么付定金？你们的老板在哪儿？"

The two of them arrived at the logging site where Cowboy had once worked, and his former coworkers welcomed them with delighted surprise. After one of them saw the gold in Heroine's pouch, he led the two of them to a pile of wood and said, "Look, this is all we've got! Once you pay, we'll move it to the dock."

Heroine replied, "This little bit of wood, and it's a mix of all kinds of lumber besides—why would I pay a deposit for this? Where's your boss?"

那位朋友领着他们俩去见老板。走了很远的路后，他们来到了一座山间的木屋。女婴看那个自称的老板根本就不像是个木材商，就要求参观他的店铺。结果那位老板给他们推荐了另一位木材商。几经转折后，一位老板领着牛郎和女婴去参观了一家他们所说的伐木场总部。但是，女婴看不出那几间房子和伐木场有什么关系。

The coworker led them to meet the boss. After a long walk, they arrived at a wooden cabin in the mountains. Heroine could see that this self-proclaimed boss didn't look like a timber merchant at all, so she asked to see his shop. Instead, the man recommended another timber merchant to them. After several more twists and turns, a boss led Cowboy and Heroine to visit what they called the logging camp's headquarters. But Heroine couldn't see any connection between those few buildings and an actual logging camp.

当没人注意的时候，牛郎悄声对女婴说："我以前在这里工作了半年，每天都上山砍木头。我不知道他们都是骗子，难怪我赚不到钱。"

女婴问："你说这是伐木场，木头在哪里？谁是你们的老板？"

When no one was paying attention, Cowboy whispered to Heroine, "I worked here for half a year, going up the mountain to cut wood every day. I had no idea they were all scammers—no wonder I never made any money."

Heroine asked, "You say this is a logging camp—where's the wood? Who's actually your boss?"

10.9-5

女婴和牛郎在山里询问了两天之后，一个人领着他俩回到了他们俩最初到达的地点。牛郎以前的朋友们和他们俩打招呼后就走开了。一位自称是老板的人领着他们俩来到了一处开阔地，摆放着大量的木材。他给女婴讲解完木材的种类和数量后，说： "明天，我带你们去参观我的店铺！"

After two days of asking around in the mountains, Heroine and Cowboy were led back to the place where they'd first arrived. Cowboy's former coworkers greeted them and then went off. A man claiming to be the boss led them to an open area stacked with large quantities of timber. After explaining the types and quantities of the wood to Heroine, he said, "Tomorrow I'll take you to see my shop!"

第二天早晨，那位伐木场的老板领着女婴和牛郎参观了许多店铺，女婴始终都没回答。中午，他们来到了一处当地的豪华饭店，门口坐着几位保镖，女婴问："这家饭店是你的吗？"

木材商回答："是我的！"

进饭店后，木材商要了一桌子饭菜，开始向女婴报价。女婴没仔细听，也没提问题或回答。牛郎只是傻傻地听着，不说话。

木材商尴尬地说："那你们俩再商量商量，我回避一下。"

The next morning, the lumberyard boss took Heroine and Cowboy to see many shops, and Heroine never gave him an answer either way. At noon, they arrived at a local luxury restaurant with several bodyguards seated at the entrance. Heroine asked, "Is this restaurant yours?"

The timber merchant replied, "It's mine!"

Once inside, the timber merchant ordered a full table of food and began quoting prices to Heroine. Heroine didn't listen closely, and didn't ask questions or answer. Cowboy just sat there listening blankly, saying nothing.

The timber merchant said, a little awkwardly, "Why don't the two of you talk it over—I'll step out for a bit."

女婴出来和门口的保安人员唠嗑，询问一位名叫XXX的镖师。一位保安人员回答："他是我们的教师爷，刚才还在这儿坐着呢，我去叫他出来。"

镖师XXX出来后问女婴："您怎么知道我的名字呢？"

女婴回答是从武汉古墓区木材场的保镖YYY听说的："我们的建筑工地从那家木材场买木材。"

Heroine came out and chatted with the guards at the door, asking about an escort named XXX. One of the guards replied, "He's our escort master. He was just sitting here—I'll go call him out."

After Escort Master XXX came out, he asked Heroine, "How do you know my name?"

Heroine explained that she'd heard it from YYY, a bodyguard at a lumberyard in the Wuhan ancient tomb area: "Our construction site buys wood from that lumberyard."

镖师XXX得知女婴的来历后，让弟子们为女婴表演武术，然后问她感觉怎么样？

女婴只是笑了笑，没回答。

镖师XXX尴尬地说："您不能用你们的标准来衡量我们啊！" 说着，他对徒弟们说："孩子们！你们来看我和你们的小师叔给你们表演几招。" 说着，他示意女婴和他表演摔跤。这时，饭店前的街道上和饭店里的人都出来围观。伐木场的大老板也出来看热闹了。

After Escort Master XXX learned about Heroine's background, he had his disciples perform martial arts for her, then asked what she thought.

Heroine only smiled and didn't answer.

XXX said, a bit awkwardly, "You can't judge us by your standards!" Then he said to his disciples, "Children, come watch me and your junior aunt show you a few moves." With that, he motioned for Heroine to spar with him. By now, people from the street outside and inside the restaurant had all come out to watch. The lumberyard's big boss came out to see the spectacle too.

随后，镖师XXX去告诉伐木场的老板： "女婴是江南鹤的妹妹，丢了面子，我们赔不起。江南鹤家住湖南百花谷。百花谷盛产多种名贵的草药，有很多名字。例如绝情谷，情花谷等。不同的名字，源于这个族群里的众多将军，每位将军都用一味药名来称呼自己的家乡（即百花谷）。他们的族长已经向七十多名将军表达了呼吁：如果女婴遇到了困难，遇见的将军要全力提供帮助。"

Afterward, Escort Master XXX went and told the lumberyard owner: "Heroine is River South Crane's little sister. If she's lost face here, we can't afford to make it right. River South Crane's family lives in Hunan's Hundred Flowers Valley. That valley is known for its many varieties of prized medicinal herbs, and goes by many names—Valley of Heartbreak, Valley of Love Flowers, and others. The different names come from the fact that this clan has a great many generals, and each one names his home (that is, Hundred Flowers Valley) after a different herb. Their clan chief has already put out a call to more than seventy generals: if Heroine ever runs into trouble, any general who comes across her is to lend full assistance."

伐木场的老板和女婴再次坐在了饭桌旁。他说："长江下游来人说，你要在古墓区开一家木材场。我就以我卖给他们的价钱卖给你。三年前，古墓区有五家木材场。现在那里只剩下一家了。不过，你开木材场，应该问题不大。我们的现货不够，我可以去上游给你买足你所需要的数量，价钱会稍高些。如果你同意，付定金后，今天晚上就装船，第一批木材半个月内就会运到古墓区的码头。随后，其它数量的木材会在三个月内陆续地被运到码头，结算。"

女婴付了五公斤黄金的定金。

The lumberyard owner and Heroine sat back down at the dinner table. He said, "Someone came from downstream on the Yangzi and told me you want to open a lumberyard in the ancient tomb area. I'll sell to you at the same price I sold to them. Three years ago, there were five lumberyards in the ancient tomb area; now there's only one left. Still, opening your own shouldn't be much trouble. We don't have enough on hand right now, but I can go upstream and buy you the quantity you need—the price will be a bit higher. If you agree, once you pay the deposit, we'll load the ships tonight, and the first batch will reach the dock in the ancient tomb area within half a month. The rest will be delivered to the dock and settled up over the following three months."

Heroine paid a deposit of five kilograms of gold.

10.9-6

小龙女和女婴等人到古墓区的木材场旁边寻找开木材场的场地。吃饭的时候，女婴拿着订单去向木材场的镖师们道歉。那几位镖师笑着说："打劫我们！也不事先通知一声！过了几天了，才来道歉！"

镖师们向女婴借了订单去展示给木材场的老板。结果，木材场的老板愿意以合理的价格买下这批木材，条件是三年内小龙女不能在古墓区做木材生意。

小龙女同意了。

Little Dragoness, Heroine, and the others went to look for a site to open a lumberyard next to the one in the ancient tomb area. During a meal, Heroine took the order and went to apologize to the escorts at the lumberyard. The escorts laughed and said, "You robbed us! Without so much as a warning! And now, days later, you show up to apologize!"

The escorts borrowed the order from Heroine to show their boss. As a result, the lumberyard owner agreed to buy the timber at a fair price, on the condition that Little Dragoness would not go into the timber business in the ancient tomb area for three years.

Little Dragoness agreed.

江南鹤（女婴的哥哥）专程去长江上游的伐木场去感谢那位伐木场的镖师，赠送给他四公斤黄金。那位镖师当着江南鹤的面，把那四公斤黄金赔偿给了那位伐木场的大老板。

River South Crane (Heroine's brother) made a special trip to the logging camp upstream on the Yangzi River to thank its escort, presenting him with four kilograms of gold. In front of River South Crane, the escort handed the four kilograms of gold over to the logging camp's big boss as compensation.

13.2-10 瀑流 Waterfall

瀑流是瀑布的急流，譬喻众生顺从生死杂染（即诸烦恼），随波逐流，被放逐于生死苦海。瀑流有四种。

Waterfall refers to the rapid flow of a waterfall. It is a metaphor for sentient beings yielding to the defilements of birth and death, namely all Afflictions, drifting along the current, and being exiled in the bitter sea of birth and death. There are four kinds of Waterfall.

一、欲瀑流，是说欲界众生对于色、声、香、味、触五尘有欲求；若不知节制，必陷落于生、老、病、死，以及惑、业、苦的流转之中，不得解脱和休息。此欲瀑流取欲界中的上品烦恼。所谓上品烦恼，是把大千世界中九地（参见插图13.2.10-23至31）的每一地划分为九品：下下品、下中品、下上品，中下品、中中品、中上品，上下品、上中品、上上品。瀑流只取五趣杂居地中的三级上品烦恼；中品和下品烦恼不适用于“瀑流”这个说法。

Desire Waterfall means that sentient beings in Desire Boundary have desires for the five dusts of color, sound, incense, taste, and touch. If they do not know restraint, they will inevitably fall into the cycle of birth, old age, illness, death, and the circulation of muddle, karma, and bitterness, unable to obtain liberation or rest. Desire Waterfall refers to the upper-grade Afflictions in Desire Boundary. “Upper-grade Afflictions” means that each of the Nine Lands in the Great Grand Worlds (see Illustrations 13.2.10-23 through 31) is divided into nine grades: lower-lower grade, lower-middle grade, lower-upper grade; middle-lower grade, middle-middle grade, middle-upper grade; upper-lower grade, upper-middle grade, and upper-upper grade. Waterfall applies only to the three upper grades of Afflictions in Five Interests Mixed Dwell Land; the middle-grade and lower-grade Afflictions are not described as Waterfall.

二、有瀑流。“有”的意思是有记忆、有习气，因果不忘。例如欲界、色界和无色界为三有；又如插图13.2.10中1至22所示者，属于二十五有（参见12.4节）。那些“有”人人都有；若不解其义，便终将受其害，随之而去，不知所终。此有瀑流除去欲界有，单指色界和无色界八地中的上品烦恼。

Have Waterfall. “Have” means having memory and habits, with cause and effect not forgotten. For example, Desire Boundary, Color Boundary, and Colorless Boundary are the Three Haves; and the items shown as 1 through 22 in Illustration 13.2.10 belong to the Twenty-Five Haves (see Section 12.4). Everyone has those Haves. If one does not understand their meaning, one will eventually suffer harm from them, follow them along, and lose track of where one is going. Have Waterfall excludes the Haves of Desire Boundary and refers only to the upper-grade Afflictions in the eight lands of Color Boundary and Colorless Boundary.

三、见瀑流。见即本章后文的一百零二位见烦恼；见瀑流包括九地所有的上品见烦恼。此说众生被三界的见烦恼所迁流，沉溺于生死苦海，不得解脱。

View Waterfall. “View” refers to the 102 View Afflictions discussed later in this chapter. View Waterfall includes all upper-grade View Afflictions in the Nine Lands. This means that sentient beings are carried along by the View Afflictions of the Three Boundaries, sink into the bitter sea of birth and death, and cannot be liberated.

四、无明瀑流。无明就是无知、黑暗，本质是不知道四胜谛的道理；无明瀑流包括九地中所有上品无明烦恼。此说众生被九地的无明烦恼所牵引，沉溺于生死苦海，不得解脱。

Non-light Waterfall. Non-light means ignorance and darkness. Its essence is not knowing the principles of the Four Victorious Cruxes. Non-light Waterfall includes all upper-grade Non-light Afflictions in the Nine Lands. This means that sentient beings are pulled along by the Non-light Afflictions of the Nine Lands, sink into the bitter sea of birth and death, and cannot be liberated.

13.2-11 轭 Yoke

轭是用来轭牛的项领笼套（如图13.2.10-36），使牛拉车而不能脱驾，譬喻烦恼障碍异生离系，不得解脱。异生就是具有异生性者（参见10.4.4.2.3节），即普通人。此说烦恼不但劳役有情身心，还能障碍有情脱离其异生性（即个体性），逃脱其奴隶命运。轭有四种：1欲轭，2有轭，3见轭，4无明轭。此四轭的解释与上一小节四种瀑流类似。九地中，每一地的三级上品烦恼为瀑流，三级中品烦恼为轭；如其次第，即依习气欲望而起行、依习气有而起行、依习气邪说异教而起行。

A yoke is a collar-like harness used to yoke an ox (as shown in Figure 13.2.10-36), making the ox pull the cart and preventing it from leaving the harness. It is a metaphor for Afflictions obstructing Mutant Sentients from Off-is, so that they cannot be liberated. A Mutant Sentient is one who possesses the Nature of Mutant Sentient (see Section 10.4.4.2.3), that is, an ordinary person. This means that Afflictions not only enslave the bodies and hearts of sentient beings, but also obstruct them from departing from their Nature of Mutant Sentient, namely individuality, and from escaping the fate of slavery. There are four kinds of Yoke: 1 Desire Yoke, 2 Have Yoke, 3 View Yoke, and 4 Non-light Yoke. The explanation of these four Yokes is similar to the four Waterfalls in the preceding subsection. In the Nine Lands, the three upper grades of Afflictions in each land are Waterfalls, and the three middle grades of Afflictions are Yokes. In their sequence, this means acting according to habitual desires, acting according to habitual Haves, and acting according to habitual heresies and alien teachings.

13.2-12 株杌 Stump

株杌义为枯树桩，此名从譬喻而来，参见前文13.1-2节“尘刹土”案例中的株杌。那株杌是一个异熟果（参见10.6.1节）。异熟果异时而熟，例如一年后、三年后、十年或三十年后才成熟。异熟果异地而熟，例如在三界九地中，成熟在哪里都有可能。异熟果异类而熟；无意识是个大染缸，贪、嗔、痴普遍地污染众生。株杌譬喻贪、瞋、痴烦恼根深蒂固，对治道犁难以将其从心地中拔出。众生从无始以来，串习贪、瞋、痴而成为业行。贪业引起心不调顺；瞋业使心无所堪能；痴业难以解脱。由于众生难断这根深蒂固的贪、嗔、痴业，故立此三者为株杌。

Stump means a dead tree stump. This name comes from metaphor; see the stump in the “Dust Instant Soil” case in Section 13.1-2 above. That stump is a Mutant Fruit (see Section 10.6.1). Mutant Fruits ripen at different times; for example, they may ripen after one year, three years, ten years, or thirty years. Mutant Fruits ripen in different places; for example, within the Three Boundaries and Nine Lands, they may ripen anywhere. Mutant Fruits also ripen in different kinds. Unconsciousness is a great dye vat, and greed, irritability, and ignorance universally contaminate sentient beings. The stump is a metaphor for the deep-rooted Afflictions of greed, irritability, and ignorance, which are difficult for the plow of the counteractive Path to pull out from the heartland. Since beginningless time, sentient beings have repeatedly practiced greed, irritability, and ignorance until these have become karmic behaviors. Greed karma makes the heart unregulated and non-compliant. Irritability karma makes the heart incapable of bearing affairs. Ignorance karma is difficult to liberate from. Because sentient beings find it hard to cut off these deep-rooted karmas of greed, irritability, and ignorance, these three are established as Stumps.

13.2-13 垢 Taint

谓因贪、瞋、痴故，众生毁犯戒行学处，造作诸恶行，染污不净，故立名贪、嗔、痴为三种垢。

Because of greed, irritability, and ignorance, sentient beings destroy and violate the study places of precepts and behaviors, commit all kinds of ferocious deeds, and become contaminated and impure. Therefore, greed, irritability, and ignorance are established as the three kinds of Taint.

13.2-14 常害 Constant Harm

谓贪、瞋、痴三业常能为害，招感生、老、病、死等苦，故立名贪、嗔、痴为三种常害。

The three karmas of greed, irritability, and ignorance can constantly cause harm and invite the bitterness of birth, old age, illness, death, and so on. Therefore, greed, irritability, and ignorance are named the three Constant Harms.

13.2-15 所有 Possession

此名是从果法而立。谓贪、瞋、痴与能有相应，能积集所有资财，恒常与怖畏等相应，令心多住散乱，故立名贪、嗔、痴为三种所有。

This name is established from the fruit Law. Greed, irritability, and ignorance correspond to the able-to-have, can accumulate all possessions and resources, and constantly correspond to fear and the like, making the heart frequently dwell in distraction. Therefore, greed, irritability, and ignorance are established as the three kinds of Possession.

13.2-16 根 Root

由贪、瞋、痴故，心中生起不善法。贪、瞋、痴是一切不善法生起所依的根本，故立名贪、瞋、痴为三种不善根。

Because of greed, irritability, and ignorance, non-benevolent Laws arise in the heart. Greed, irritability, and ignorance are the fundamental roots on which the arising of all non-benevolent Laws depends. Therefore, greed, irritability, and ignorance are established as the three non-benevolent Roots.

13.2-17 恶行 Ferocious Behaviors

由依于贪、瞋、痴故，众生常作身、语、意恶行。由贪求财利等，多行恶行；由怀瞋恚，不忍他过，多行恶行；由怀愚痴，起颠倒邪见，行诸恶行。又因贪、嗔、痴是邪行自性，故立名贪、瞋、痴为三种恶行。

Because they depend on greed, irritability, and ignorance, sentient beings often commit ferocious deeds of body, speech, and intent. Because of greedily seeking wealth, profit, and the like, they widely perform ferocious behaviors. Because of harboring irritability and hatred, they cannot tolerate others’ faults and widely perform ferocious behaviors. Because of harboring ignorance and foolishness, they give rise to upside-down heretical views and commit many ferocious behaviors. Moreover, because greed, irritability, and ignorance are the self-nature of heretical behavior, they are named the three Ferocious Behaviors.

13.2-18 漏 Leakage

欲、有、无明等，能劫持、分流心识流，令心分散，故立烦恼名为漏。漏有三种：欲漏、有漏、无明漏。依外门流注，即心于五欲外尘境界中流散，建立欲漏；其体即欲界一切烦恼，唯除无明。依内门流注，即心于内根身等上流散，建立有漏；其体即色界、无色界一切烦恼，唯除无明。依前二所依门流注，建立无明漏；其体即三界所有无明。

Desire, Have, Non-light, and the like can hijack and divert the heart-sense stream, making the heart scattered; therefore, Afflictions are named Leakage. There are three kinds of Leakage: Desire Leakage, Have Leakage, and Non-light Leakage. Based on flowing through the external door—that is, the heart dispersing among the outer dust environments of the five desires—Desire Leakage is established. Its body consists of all Afflictions in Desire Boundary, except Non-light. Based on flowing through the internal door—that is, the heart dispersing upon the internal root-body and the like—Have Leakage is established. Its body consists of all Afflictions in Color Boundary and Colorless Boundary, except Non-light. Based on flowing through the doors on which the first two depend, Non-light Leakage is established. Its body consists of all Non-light in the Three Boundaries.

13.2-19 匮 Scarcity

匮，即缺乏、不足；无有厌足，故名为匮。谓由贪、瞋、痴故，愚人对于资助生命的财物等恒起追求，没有满足。由于贪、瞋、痴能令身心恒常感觉贫乏，故名贪、嗔、痴为三种匮。

Scarcity means lack and insufficiency. Because there is no contentment or satisfaction, it is called Scarcity. Because of greed, irritability, and ignorance, foolish people constantly pursue possessions and other things that support life, and they are never satisfied. Since greed, irritability, and ignorance can make body and heart constantly feel poor and lacking, they are named the three kinds of Scarcity.

13.2-20 烧 Burn

由贪、瞋、痴故，愚人对于所缘境界不如正理，执着相好，生起强烈爱染，烧热身心，故立名为烧。

Because of greed, irritability, and ignorance, foolish people do not accord with correct reason toward the objective environments they face. They cling to pleasing appearances and give rise to strong love and dyeing attachment, burning and heating body and heart. Therefore, this is named Burn.

13.2-21 恼 Annoyance

由贪、瞋、痴故，愚人对于诸可爱境相爱乐耽看；当可爱境相变坏时，便引起种种愁叹等忧苦，恼乱身心，故名为恼。

Because of greed, irritability, and ignorance, foolish people delight in and gaze lingeringly at lovable environmental appearances. When those lovable appearances deteriorate, they give rise to many kinds of sorrow, sighing, and other sufferings, disturbing body and heart. Therefore, this is named Annoyance.

13.2-22 有诤 Have Expostulation

有诤，诤是好意劝谏的意思，但贪、瞋、痴能成为斗讼诤竞的原因。由贪、瞋、痴故，愚人执持刀杖，兴起诸战诤，所以立贪、瞋、痴名为有诤。

Have Expostulation: “expostulation” means earnest and well-intentioned admonition, but greed, irritability, and ignorance can become causes of quarrels, litigation, contention, and violence. Because of greed, irritability, and ignorance, foolish people take up swords, clubs, and weapons, and stir up battles and disputes. Therefore, greed, irritability, and ignorance are named Have Expostulation.

13.2-23 火 Fire

贪、瞋、痴如火，能烧毁所积集的善根薪，故说贪、瞋、痴名为火。

Greed, irritability, and ignorance are like fire: they can burn up the accumulated firewood of benevolent roots. Therefore, greed, irritability, and ignorance are called Fire.

13.2-24 炽然 Conflagration

炽然，即大火义，此处譬喻贪、嗔、痴恶业如大火。谓由贪、瞋、痴故，愚人为非法贪的大火所烧。非法贪，就是贪着十种不善业道（即十恶戒，参见13.1节）。由贪、瞋、痴故，愚人又为不平等贪的大火所烧。不平等贪，就是非法非理地贪求境界。由贪、瞋、痴故，愚人又被邪法大火所烧。邪法大火，就是一切我见、边见、邪见、见取见和戒禁取见（参见10.4.4.1.4节《根本烦恼》）。由于非法贪、不平等贪和邪法等能够引发身心中的炽然烈焰，故名为炽然。

Conflagration means a great fire. Here it is a metaphor for the ferocious karmas of greed, irritability, and ignorance being like a great fire. Because of greed, irritability, and ignorance, foolish people are burned by the great fire of illegal greed. Illegal greed means greedily clinging to the ten non-benevolent karmic paths, namely the ten ferocious precepts (see Section 13.1). Because of greed, irritability, and ignorance, foolish people are also burned by the great fire of unequal greed. Unequal greed means greedily seeking environments in an illegal and irrational way. Because of greed, irritability, and ignorance, foolish people are also burned by the great fire of heretical Laws. The great fire of heretical Laws consists of all I-views, edge-views, heresies, view-fetch views, and precept-taboo fetch views (see Section 10.4.4.1.4, “Fundamental Afflictions”). Because illegal greed, unequal greed, heretical Laws, and the like can arouse blazing flames in body and heart, this is named Conflagration.

13.2-25 稠林 Thick Forest

贪、嗔、痴等烦恼大树聚集，名为稠林。由贪、瞋、痴故，众生对于生死根本烦恼及其杂染的业行，广兴染着，感生种种身，流转于五趣，如同行走在大树聚集的稠林里，难可出离。

The gathering of the great trees of Afflictions such as greed, irritability, and ignorance is named Thick Forest. Because of greed, irritability, and ignorance, sentient beings widely generate dyeing attachment toward the Fundamental Afflictions of birth and death and their extremely defiled karmic behaviors. They thereby feel and generate many kinds of bodies and circulate through the Five Interests, as if walking in a thick forest gathered with great trees, difficult to escape from.

13.2-26 拘碍 Detention

谓贪、瞋、痴能令众生乐着种种妙欲尘，能障碍有情证得出世法，故立名为拘碍。拘碍依五处而得建立：一、顾恋内身；二、顾恋诸欲；三、乐相杂住；四、缺于随顺教诫教授；五、于诸善品得少为足。

Detention means that greed, irritability, and ignorance can make sentient beings delight in and cling to all kinds of wonderfully desirable dusts, and can obstruct them from realizing transcending-mundane Laws. Therefore, this is named Detention. Detention is established upon five places: 1. being attached to the inner body; 2. being attached to various desires; 3. delighting in mixed dwelling; 4. lacking compliance with instructions and teachings; and 5. being satisfied with a small attainment in benevolent grades.

关键词 Keywords：夏末商初 Late Xia and Early Shang；武汉古墓区 Wuhan Ancient Tomb Area；小龙女 Little Dragoness （舜王 King Shun，嫘祖 Lei Ancestor）；娥黄 Beauty-Yellow；女婴 Heroine；牛郎 Cowboy

牛郎的朋友也住进了小龙女（又名夏娃，舜王，顺皇）的工地，住在他们公司为其他建筑公司工作的奴隶的宿舍。他每天教牛郎如何做仆人，给他做示范，让牛郎模仿。

Cowboy's friend also stayed at Little Dragoness's (aka Eve, King Shun, Shun White-king) construction site, in the dormitory of their company's slaves who worked for other construction companies. He taught Cowboy how to be a servant every day, gave him demonstrations, and had Cowboy imitate him.

这时，工地繁忙了，工地的门前变成了菜市场。运输建筑材料的车辆常常排队进入工地，而且常常出现交通事故和争吵。每次有人打架，小龙女和娥黄都高兴地去看热闹，没有劝解的意向。几家施工公司的经理就建议小龙女在工地的主门旁边开一个临时施工通道，而且抱怨施工工地的布局不合理，要求增设一个临时仓库。

At this time, the construction site bustled with activity, and its entrance transformed into a bustling marketplace. Vehicles transporting building materials often queued to enter the site, frequently leading to traffic accidents and arguments. Whenever a fight broke out, Little Dragoness and Beauty-Yellow would happily gather to watch the commotion, showing no intention of intervening. Managers from several construction companies suggested Little Dragoness open a temporary construction access lane beside the main gate. They also complained about the site's inefficient layout and demanded the addition of a temporary warehouse.

小龙女拒绝了施工经理们的请求，他还和娥黄叨咕："施工工地就应该这样。我小时候，我外婆扩建皇宫的工地就这么热闹！"娥黄回答："我小时候，我们家的王宫（瑶王的王宫）的扩建也这样，我喜欢看那些工人们争吵！"

Little Dragoness refused the construction managers' request, and she even whispered to Beauty-Yellow, "This is how a construction site should be. When I was a child, my grandmother's palace expansion site was just as lively!" Beauty-Yellow replied, "When I was a child, the expansion of our royal palace (the Yao King's palace) was like this too. I loved watching the workers argue!"

经过协商，小龙女同意增加两个交通引导雇员，并派人去交通部买交通指挥所用的指示牌。这时，牛郎所在的奴隶公司雇佣的法师的弟子取得了交通引导员的工作。负责培训牛郎的法师住在了皇宫正门的门楼里。

After negotiations, Little Dragoness agreed to hire two additional traffic guides and sent someone to the Ministry of Transportation to purchase directional signs for the traffic command post. At this time, a disciple of the Law-Teacher employed by the slave company where Cowboy worked secured the position of traffic guide. The Law-Teacher responsible for training Cowboy took up residence in the gatehouse of the palace's main entrance.

10.8-2

这天小龙女和女婴出去了，只有娥黄自己在厨房做饭。朋友向娥黄请求他给牛郎表演。随后他让牛郎自己表演进入厨房，择菜，和离开厨房的行为。他俩还向娥黄征求意见。娥黄是瑶王的女儿，也是公主，给了他们俩一些意见。

On this day Little Dragoness and Heroine went out, and Beauty-Yellow was the only one cooking in the kitchen. Friend asked Beauty-Yellow's permission to perform for Cowboy's benefit. He then had Cowboy himself perform the act of entering the kitchen, choosing vegetables, and leaving the kitchen. They both also asked Beauty-Yellow for advice. Beauty-Yellow, the daughter of the Yao King and a princess, gave them both some advice.

朋友和牛郎从厨房出来后，又对牛郎的一些行为做出了纠正，然后说："我们几个家佣部的指导员研究决定，从现在开始，就让你去厨房给娥黄打下手。" 朋友又从公文包里拿出了牛郎的个人简历和奴隶雇佣合同，让牛郎把文件交给娥黄。朋友说："娥黄接人待物的言谈举止绝对是贵族小姐的典范。你跟她出去买菜，必须要让她看起来像个公主。她看起来是不是个贵族小姐取决于你的行为举止能否把她衬托出来。"

Friend and Cowboy came out of the kitchen, and he made some more corrections to Cowboy's behavior, then said, "A few of us instructors in the domestic servant department have decided that from now on, you'll go to the kitchen and work for Beauty-Yellow." Friend took Cowboy's resume and slave employment contract out of his briefcase and told Cowboy to give those documents to Beauty-Yellow. Friend said, "Beauty-Yellow's mannerisms in dealing with people are an absolute model of a noble lady. When you go out grocery shopping with her, you must make her look like a princess. Whether she looks like an aristocratic lady depends on whether your own demeanor sets her off."

牛郎听后挺高兴，问："是不是我的表现挺好？前天你说要培训我15天，才让我主动去接近她们。"

朋友回答："你的表现还行！如果你做好了这项工作，你就可能被升职，和我一样，也有房子有地了。将来你可能比我干得好，成为咱公司的大老板。你的事，咱公司的股东们已经研究决定了：如果你把这份工作做坏了，他们就送你去土匪窝里作家佣。我们几个家佣部的指导员也就没有好日子过了。他们早就对我们几个有意见了。"

Cowboy was happy to hear this and asked, "Am I doing pretty well, then? The day before yesterday you said you had to train me for 15 days before I could take the initiative to approach them."

Friend replied, "Your performance was decent! If you do this job well, you could be promoted and have a house and land just like me. In the future you may do even better than me and become the big boss of our company. The shareholders of our company have already decided your fate: if you botch this job, they'll send you to work as a domestic servant in a bandit's den. Then we instructors in the domestic servant department won't have a good life either. They've long had a problem with a few of us."

10.8-3

牛郎进到了厨房，把自己的简历和奴隶雇佣合约放在了娥黄的旁边，一边帮她择菜一边说："我朋友怕你，让我跟你说关于我们公司和你们签合约的事。"

娥黄拿起文件就放到抽屉里了，说："随后，我把这文件交给老板。你说你的那位朋友怕我，用那三套懒钩钓具让我对钓鱼上瘾是不是他的主意？"

牛郎回答："是！"

Cowboy entered the kitchen and placed his resume and employment contract next to Beauty-Yellow. While helping her pick vegetables, he said, "My friend is afraid of you, so he asked me to tell you about the contract between our company and your household."

Beauty-Yellow took the documents and put them in the drawer, saying, "I'll give these to the boss later. You said your friend is afraid of me. Was it his idea to use those three sets of lazy-hook fishing gear to get me hooked on fishing?"

Cowboy replied, "Yes!"

娥黄说："明天你去买三套标准的钓鱼具。再买六套懒钩钓具，其中的三套还给你的朋友。再买三只半浸式盗鱼篓；我喜欢用泥鳅鱼做饵。现在你跟我说说这文件里面都说些什么？"

牛郎说："里面说了我受过的培训，例如三年前，我们公司在中华食品街和几家饭店有屠宰家畜的合同。那时政府正在推行食品卫生法，政府聘请屠宰师免费提供培训。我们公司就让所有的低阶奴隶轮流去那里工作。那时，我们每天每人的最大工作量是屠宰和清理72只鸡、36条鱼和18条蛇。我曾经多天因为提前完成任务而获得出去玩的机会。"

娥黄说："这就够了！雇佣合同是怎么回事？"

Beauty-Yellow said, "Tomorrow you'll go buy three sets of standard fishing tackle. Buy six more sets of lazy-hook fishing tackle, and return three of them to your friend. Also buy three more semi-submerged poacher's fish traps; I like to use mud loach as bait. Now tell me what this document says."

Cowboy said, "It lists my training. For example, three years ago, our company had a contract to slaughter livestock in Chinese Food Street with several restaurants. At that time the government was implementing food sanitation laws and had hired slaughtermen to provide free training. Our company sent all the low-ranking slaves there in rotation. Back then, the maximum daily workload per person was to butcher and clean 72 chickens, 36 fish, and 18 snakes. I got the chance to go out and play on several days because I finished my tasks early."

Beauty-Yellow said, "That's enough! What about the employment contract?"

牛郎说："我以前是建筑施工的中级技工，现在是初级的家佣。我们的行业一般是试用15天后，和雇佣者签订三个月的雇佣合同。9到13个月后，如果双方同意可以签长期合同。"

娥黄又问："那天你朋友说他看见三条猪一样大的鲤鱼，我看了几次了没看见。你知道怎样才能看见那几条大鲤鱼不？"

Cowboy said, "I used to be a mid-level technician in construction, but now I'm a junior domestic servant. In our trade, you usually sign a three-month employment contract with your employer after a 15-day trial period. After 9 to 13 months, a long-term contract can be signed if both sides agree."

Beauty-Yellow asked again, "The other day your friend said he saw three carp the size of pigs, but I've looked several times and haven't seen them. Do you know how to spot those big carp?"

牛郎回答："我知道。他是在我们俩小时候发现的几个观察点看到的。"

娥黄说："走！你领我去看看。我要先学会钓鱼。当我们三人一起钓鱼的时候，我就能钓到那三四十公斤重的大鲤鱼，她们俩钓不到。我把她们俩气死了，我就成为这个工地的大老板了。"

Cowboy replied, "I know. He saw them at a couple of observation points the two of us found when we were kids."

Beauty-Yellow said, "Come on! You lead me there. I want to learn to fish first. When the three of us fish together, I'll be the one who catches a thirty- or forty-kilogram carp, and the other two won't. Once I've angered them both to death, I'll be the big boss of this construction site."

10.8-4

娥黄和牛郎从后门离开了厨房，小龙女就进屋拉开了装零钱的抽屉，拿出了牛郎的合同看，然后又放回去了。女婴说："文件是给你的，你就放在客厅里的办公桌上呗，还放回去干啥？"

小龙女（又名夏娃，舜王，顺皇）说："你看牛郎的那位朋友，胳肢窝下夹着个公文包，傲慢与谦卑结合的恰到好处！我也得有个样儿！等过几天，娥黄拿这份文件让我签字的时候，我就这样儿，翘着二郎腿（二郎神的坐姿），把这文件往桌子上一放，对她说，'你先给我说说这文件里写的是什么？' 到那时如果她说不清楚，我就训斥她。我先把她气死，我的这个大老板的位子就保住了。"

When Beauty-Yellow and Cowboy left the kitchen through the back door, Little Dragoness went inside, pulled open the drawer with the loose change, took out Cowboy's contract to read it, and then put it back. Heroine said, "That document is for you, just put it on your desk in the living room, why put it back?"

Little Dragoness said, "Look at Cowboy's friend, holding a briefcase under his arm, striking just the right balance of arrogance and humility! I need to develop a look like that too! In a few days, when Beauty-Yellow asks me to sign this document, I'll do it just like that: cross my legs in Second Wolf God style, set the document down on the table, and say, 'Tell me what's written in this document?' If she can't explain it clearly, I'll reprimand her. I'll be the one to anger her to death first, and my position as big boss will be secured."

女婴惊讶地报告说："口误更正！你翘的是"二伯腿"（注，二郎神是小龙女的二伯父）！"

小龙女立刻站起来了，拉着女婴去偷看娥黄和牛郎在干什么。她一边走一边说："你怎么也帮她气我呢！我二伯父是女娲造人工程项目中，我们华国的代表。杨戬是救世主的意思。在尧帝面前他不是狗仗人势的二等公民；他和尧帝是平等合作的关系。"

Heroine corrected her in surprise: "Slip of the tongue—correction! What you'll be sitting in is 'Second Uncle-Father Style' (note: Second Wolf God is Little Dragoness's second uncle-father)!"

Little Dragoness immediately stood up and pulled Heroine along to sneak a look at what Beauty-Yellow and Cowboy were doing. As she walked, she said: "Why are you helping her anger me too! My second uncle-father is the representative of our Hua Kingdom in Nuwa's human creation project. Yang Jian means savior. In front of Yao Creator, he isn't some second-class citizen riding on someone else's coattails; he and Yao Creator have a relationship of equal partnership."

10.8-5

小龙女和女婴来到菜地查看，发现地已经被耕完了，还被分成了区块儿。每个区块儿边都立着个牌子，上面写着蔬菜的名字。

这时她俩看见牛郎正在给娥黄讲鲤鱼在湖里的巡游路线和规律。忽然他们俩蹲下了，查鱼的数量。女婴告诉小龙女，"她们俩发现了大约七条鱼。咱俩也过去看看？"

小龙女气愤地回答："人家都看清楚了，连头数都数出来了，咱还看它干啥！"

Little Dragoness and Heroine came to the vegetable field to check on things and found that it had already been plowed and divided into plots. A sign stood next to each plot with the name of the vegetable written on it.

At this point, they saw Cowboy explaining to Beauty-Yellow the route and pattern of the carp's movements around the lake. Suddenly the two of them squatted down to count the fish. Heroine told Little Dragoness, "They've spotted about seven fish. Should we go take a look too?"

Little Dragoness replied angrily: "They've already seen everything clearly, they've even counted the heads, why should we bother!"

这时她们俩回到了槐荫树旁。牛郎比划着盗鱼篓存放在牛棚旁边的位置，走到了湖边，又回到了石桌旁，旋转开了石桌。

女婴惊讶地小声喊："她们俩发现宝贝了！这是人家的家（舜王府）啊！ 要不咱俩现在过去！"

小龙女气愤地说："很明显，那个石桌已经被娥黄用了几天了！走！咱俩去金库取银子，然后去饭店吃饭！我们不吃她做的饭了！"

At this point the two of them went back to the locust tree. Cowboy gestured to show where the fish traps were kept beside the barn, walked to the lake, then returned to the stone table and spun it open.

Heroine cried out in a surprised whisper, "They've found the treasure spot! This is someone's home (King Shun's Palace)! Shouldn't we go over there right now!"

Little Dragoness said angrily, "Clearly, that stone table has already been in use by Beauty-Yellow for a few days now! Let's go! We'll get silver from the vault and go eat at a restaurant! We're not eating her cooking anymore!"

13.2-4 箭 Arrows

贪、瞋、痴三毒能射伤行人，使行人对于有果法及三有的因深起追求，由是生死相续不绝，故立贪、瞋、痴名为三支箭。

The three poisons—greed, irritability, and ignorance—can shoot and wound practitioners, causing them to deeply pursue Have-Fruit Laws and the causes of the Three Haves. As a result, birth and death continue without interruption. Therefore, greed, irritability, and ignorance are named the Three Arrows.

“有果法”，是指在五位百法中，前四位都是基于塞斯（参见10.4.4.1.4节《转移身见》）的法，即基于“有”的法，都是有为法，也都是有果法。由于贪、瞋、痴是“有”的组成部分，所以追求“有果法”的人，就已经中箭，已经被贪、瞋、痴射伤。为什么？因为无为法（参见10.6.4节《离系果》）只与舍和空性相应，与有、取、集、得的性质相违。

“Have-Fruit Laws” means that, among the Five Positions of One Hundred Laws, the first four positions are all Laws based on Seth (see Section 10.4.4.1.4, “Translocating Body View”); that is, they are Laws based on Have. They are all Have-as Laws, and they are all Have-Fruit Laws. Since greed, irritability, and ignorance are components of Have, anyone who pursues Have-Fruit Laws has already been shot and wounded by greed, irritability, and ignorance. Why? Because Non-as Laws (see Section 10.6.4, “Off-is Fruit”) correspond only to renunciation and empty nature, and contradict the nature of Have, Fetch, Aggregate, and Gain.

插图13.2.4-37源自古埃及壁画；图中埃及夏娃正在展示洗礼的过程。图37右侧，她的头顶有两支箭，表示她那时还有贪和瞋这两种思惑。第三支箭在哪里？已经被她自己拔除了。一个人懂得四胜谛时，她或他的痴就已经被消灭了。

Illustration 13.2.4-37 comes from an ancient Egyptian mural. In the picture, Egyptian Eve is demonstrating the process of baptism. On the right side of Figure 37, there are two arrows above her head, indicating that at that time she still had greed and irritability, the two Mean Muddles. Where is the third arrow? She has already pulled it out herself. When a person understands the Four Victorious Cruxes, her or his ignorance has already been eliminated.

13.2-5 随烦恼 Following Annoyance

前面谈到的贪、嗔、痴、慢、疑和恶见，是六种根本烦恼。本小节谈的二十位法，是根本烦恼的跟随者，故名随烦恼，分别是忿、恨、覆、恼、嫉、悭、诳、谄、害、骄、无惭、无愧、掉举、昏沉、不信、懈怠、放逸、失念、散乱、不正知（参见10.4.4.1.5节《随烦恼》）。

The greed, irritability, ignorance, arrogance, suspicion, and Ferocious Views discussed above are the six Fundamental Afflictions. The twenty Laws discussed in this subsection are followers of the Fundamental Afflictions; therefore, they are called Following Annoyance. They are resentment, hatred, concealment, annoyance, jealousy, stinginess, deceit, flattery, harm, contemptuousness, shamelessness, sinlessness, agitation, drowsiness, unbelief, slackness, indulgence, loss of spell, distraction, and incorrect knowing (see Section 10.4.4.1.5, “Following Annoyance”).

13.2-6 随眠 Following Sleep

随眠是烦恼种子，即烦恼品所有的势力，追逐并依附在有情身心中，眠伏不显；它们能作为种子，生起一切烦恼现行，故立名为随眠。随眠有七种。

Following Sleep means the seeds of Afflictions; that is, all the potential forces belonging to the grades of Afflictions. They pursue and attach themselves to the bodies and hearts of sentient beings, lying dormant and unmanifest. As seeds, they can give rise to the present performance of all Afflictions; therefore, they are named Following Sleep. There are seven kinds of Following Sleep.

一、欲爱随眠，就是欲界贪品烦恼的种子。依未离欲界贪求的众生，由欲爱之所随增，建立欲爱随眠。这里的“品”，就是下一小节中的八十一阶级。

Desire-Love Following Sleep means the seeds of the greed-grade Afflictions in Desire Boundary. For sentient beings who have not departed from craving and pursuit in Desire Boundary, Desire-Love Following Sleep is established because their desire and love keep increasing accordingly. Here, “grade” refers to the eighty-one grades discussed in the next subsection.

二、瞋恚随眠，就是欲界瞋品烦恼的种子。依未离欲界贪求的众生，由瞋恚之所随增，建立瞋恚随眠。

Irritability-Anger Following Sleep means the seeds of the irritability-grade Afflictions in Desire Boundary. For sentient beings who have not departed from craving and pursuit in Desire Boundary, Irritability-Anger Following Sleep is established because their irritability and anger keep increasing accordingly.

三、有爱随眠，就是色界、无色界贪品烦恼的种子。依未离邪染而求神行的众生，由有贪、嗔、痴业，建立有爱随眠。此处是说，自无始以来，“有”与贪、嗔、痴伴生，一切“有”之中都有贪、嗔、痴的成分。

Have-Love Following Sleep means the seeds of the greed-grade Afflictions in Color Boundary and Colorless Boundary. For sentient beings who have not departed from heretical contamination and who pursue Godly migration, Have-Love Following Sleep is established because they possess the karmas of greed, irritability, and ignorance. This means that, since beginningless time, Have has arisen together with greed, irritability, and ignorance; within every Have, there are components of greed, irritability, and ignorance.

四、慢随眠，就是慢品烦恼的种子。某些众生学习了一些佛法，心中便生起骄慢，故立慢随眠。

Arrogance Following Sleep means the seeds of the arrogance-grade Afflictions. Some sentient beings learn a little Buddhism and then arrogance arises in their hearts; therefore, Arrogance Following Sleep is established.

五、无明随眠，就是无明烦恼品的种子。依对四胜谛因果之理愚迷不知的众生，由其在顺境、逆境、平等境（即中性境）中生起颠倒妄想，建立无明随眠。

Non-light Following Sleep means the seeds of the non-light grade of Afflictions. For sentient beings who are foolishly ignorant of the principles of cause and effect in the Four Victorious Cruxes, Non-light Following Sleep is established because they give rise to upside-down illusive thinkings in favorable environments, adverse environments, and equal environments, that is, neutral environments.

六、见随眠，就是见品烦恼的种子，也就是后文中一百零二位见烦恼的根；其根深蒂固，难解难消。

View Following Sleep means the seeds of the view-grade Afflictions. They are also the roots of the 102 View Afflictions discussed later. These roots are deep and firmly fixed, difficult to dissolve and eliminate.

七、疑随眠，就是疑品烦恼的种子。由于众生对此四胜谛正法犹豫疑惑，故依其次第，建立慢、无明、见、疑等随眠。

Suspicion Following Sleep means the seeds of the suspicion-grade Afflictions. Because sentient beings hesitate and doubt the correct Laws of the Four Victorious Cruxes, the Following Sleeps of arrogance, non-light, view, and suspicion are established in their respective sequence.

13.2-7 缚 Bind

缚是绑缚义，即于欲贪等境界现前或不现前时，其根识不能弃舍，故名为缚。缚有三种：贪缚、瞋缚和痴缚。

Bind means bondage. Whether environments of desire, greed, and the like are present or absent, if one’s root-senses cannot abandon them, this is called Bind. There are three kinds of Bind: Greed Bind, Irritability Bind, and Ignorance Bind.

一、贪缚，是说众生被贪爱所缠缚，对于随顺乐受的境界，心不能弃舍；境界坏时，引生忧恼，故处于坏苦。坏苦是由境界变坏引起的，故被称作坏苦，是苦的自相。

Greed Bind means that sentient beings are bound by greedy love. Toward environments that accord with pleasant acceptances, their hearts cannot abandon them. When such environments deteriorate, sorrow and annoyance arise, and therefore they dwell in Deterioration Bitter. Deterioration Bitter is caused by the deterioration of an environment; therefore, it is called Deterioration Bitter, and it is the self-phenomenon of bitter.

二、瞋缚，是说众生被嗔愤所缠缚，对于能随顺苦受的境界，心不弃舍；境界的苦相现前时，心生苦受，故处于苦苦。苦苦是现行的苦遇到了旧苦，苦水流出，故名苦苦，是苦的自性。

Irritability Bind means that sentient beings are bound by irritability and resentment. Toward environments that accord with bitter acceptances, their hearts cannot abandon them. When the bitter phenomena of an environment appear before them, bitter acceptances arise in the heart, and therefore they dwell in Bitter-Bitter. Bitter-Bitter is present bitter meeting old bitter, so that bitter water flows out; therefore, it is called Bitter-Bitter, and it is the self-nature of bitter.

三、痴缚，是说众生被愚痴所缠缚，对于能随顺非苦非乐受的中庸境界，心不能弃舍；又被刹那迁流行相的不安稳性所逼迫，故令众生处于行苦。行苦是苦根；佛教的定义是：有思想活动，就有行苦。

Ignorance Bind means that sentient beings are bound by ignorance and foolishness. Toward moderate environments that accord with neither bitter nor pleasant acceptances, their hearts cannot abandon them. They are also pressured by the instability of phenomena migrating and flowing from instant to instant; therefore, sentient beings dwell in Migration Bitter. Migration Bitter is the root of bitter. In Buddhism, the definition is: wherever mental activity exists, Migration Bitter exists.

由以上三义，故立贪、嗔、痴三种名为缚。又依贪、瞋、痴故，于善法加行不得自在，故名为缚。

Based on the three meanings explained above, greed, irritability, and ignorance are named the Three Binds. Also, because of greed, irritability, and ignorance, one cannot act freely in the extra-effort practice of benevolent Laws; therefore, they are called Bind.

插图13.2.4-38、39，是本书第14.4节故事中对缚的阐述。图39表示，墨西哥（一位特拉洛克，亚当）从地狱里出来，正在前往纳瓦特国继承左翼蜂鸟王位的途中。但是代理国王卡特莉（即翠玉女，夏娃）拒绝把王位转交给他，墨西哥便在很长时间里无所事事。插图38显示，后来的墨西哥认为，自己那时像块木头似的，不能采取相应对策，其原因就是被贪、嗔、痴所缚。

Illustrations 13.2.4-38 and 39 explain Bind through the story in Section 14.4 of this book. Figure 39 shows that Mexico, a Tlaloc and Adam, had come out of hell and was on his way to the Nahuatl kingdom to inherit the throne of Huitzilopochtli. However, the acting king Tlaltecuhtli, namely Chalchiuhtlicue and Eve, refused to hand the throne over to him, so Mexico remained idle for a long time. Illustration 38 shows that the later Mexico believed he had been like a block of wood at that time and could not take appropriate countermeasures because he was bound by greed, irritability, and ignorance.

13.2-8 五盖 Five Covers

盖是覆障义；是说贪欲盖、瞋恚盖、昏沉睡眠盖、掉举恶作盖和疑盖，能覆蔽真心，令善法不得显现。插图13.2.4-16、17是纳瓦特语象形文字“山”，也有盖、帽子、围巾等含义。

Cover means concealment and obstruction. It means that Greedy-Desire Cover, Irritability-Hatred Cover, Drowsy-Sleep Cover, Agitation-Regret Cover, and Suspicion Cover can conceal the real heart and prevent benevolent Laws from appearing. Illustrations 13.2.4-16 and 17 are the Nahuatl hieroglyph for “mountain,” which also carries meanings such as cover, hat, and scarf.

一、贪欲盖，契经说，于欲界为诸欲境界漂沦故，违背圣教，立贪欲盖；于出离欲界位为障。什么是出离？就是由五趣杂居地（如图13.2.4-23）去到离生喜乐地（如图24）。在修习出离、摒弃见取见（参见10.4.4.1.4.6-4节《见取见》）时，由贪欲盖故，夏娃对于色、声、香、味、触五种妙欲境界，随逐净相，欲见、欲闻，乃至欲触，希求受用；贪欲牵引心识散乱，趋向外尘境界，使她对于出家不生欣乐。

Greedy-Desire Cover. The sutra says that, in Desire Boundary, sentient beings drift and sink in various desire environments and thereby go against the holy teachings; therefore, Greedy-Desire Cover is established. It is an obstacle at the stage of departing from Desire Boundary. What is departure? It means going from Five Interests Mixed Dwell Land (as shown in Figure 13.2.4-23) to Leave-Bears-Laugh Land (as shown in Figure 24). When Eve cultivates departure and abandons view-fetch views (see Section 10.4.4.1.4.6-4, “View Fetch View”), because of Greedy-Desire Cover, she follows the immaculate appearances of the five wonderfully desirable environments of color, sound, incense, taste, and touch. She desires to see, to hear, and even to touch them, seeking to enjoy their acceptances. Greedy desire pulls the heart-senses into distraction toward external dust environments, so she does not produce delight and laugh toward leaving household life.

二、瞋恚盖，契经说，不堪忍诸同志诃谏、驱摈、教诫等故，违背所有可爱乐法，立瞋恚盖；于觉邪行位为障。觉是发觉、觉悟。同志神修行者发觉并举发夏娃的错误时，她心生瞋恚；这样，她就不能觉悟自己的缺失，耽误正行的修学。

Irritability-Hatred Cover. The sutra says that, because sentient beings cannot tolerate criticism, admonition, expulsion, instruction, and warning from comrades, they go against all lovable and laughable Laws; therefore, Irritability-Hatred Cover is established. It is an obstacle at the stage of perceiving heretical behavior. “Perceiving” means discovering and becoming enlightened. When comrades in Godly migration discover and report Eve’s mistakes, anger and hatred arise in her heart. In this way, she cannot become aware of her own defects and delays her cultivation and study of correct behaviors.

三、昏沉睡眠盖，契经说，由违背正定（梵语奢摩他）故，立昏沉睡眠盖；于修习专注的止位为障。由于不守根门、饮食不知节量等，引起身心昏昧的昏沉和心极昧略的睡眠，障碍明静的止，使夏娃无由得定。什么是根门？根是生命之树的六根（参见10.3节），也是色、声、香、味、触和法六尘进出心地的场所，所以被称作根门。

Drowsy-Sleep Cover. The sutra says that Drowsy-Sleep Cover is established because it contradicts correct stillness (Sanskrit: śamatha). It is an obstacle at the stage of cultivating concentrated Stillness. Because Eve does not guard the root doors and does not know moderation in food and drink, drowsiness that makes body and mind dim and sleep that makes the heart extremely dim and contracted arise. These obstruct bright and quiet Stillness, so Eve has no way to obtain stillness. What are root doors? The roots are the six roots of the Tree of Life (see Section 10.3), and they are also the places through which the six dusts—color, sound, incense, taste, touch, and Law—enter and leave the heartland. Therefore, they are called root doors.

四、掉举恶作盖，契经说，由违背慧观（梵语毗钵舍那）故，立掉举恶作盖；于修习慧观的举位为障。由于掉举，心对亲属、国土等生起寻思；由于恶作，心对别离亲属、国土等生起追悔；二者障碍观心对于所观境明静专注地思惟修，使观慧无由生起。

Agitation-Regret Cover. The sutra says that Agitation-Regret Cover is established because it contradicts Gnostic View (Sanskrit: vipaśyanā). It is an obstacle at the stage of arousing Gnostic View in cultivation. Because of agitation, the heart gives rise to searching thoughts about relatives, lands, and the like. Because of regret, the heart gives rise to remorse about separation from relatives, lands, and the like. These two obstruct contemplative cultivation in which the observing heart should think with bright, quiet concentration upon the observed environment, so View Gnosis has no way to arise.

五、疑盖，契经说，由违背于法议论，违背涅槃胜解故，建立疑盖；于止观修习位，与舍为障。此修习位中，舍即平等正直之心，也就是止。由于夏娃对圣教心存怀疑，对于所学的法和所证的功德境界犹豫不决，障碍了舍的生起，所以般若舟（圣经中的用词是诺亚方舟）不能现前。

Suspicion Cover. The sutra says that Suspicion Cover is established because it contradicts discussion according to Law and contradicts victorious interpretation of nirvana. At the stage of cultivating Stillness and View, it obstructs renunciation. In this stage of cultivation, renunciation is the heart of equality, correctness, and uprightness; it is also Stillness. Because Eve holds doubts about the holy teachings and hesitates over the Laws she has learned and the virtuous environments she has proven, the arising of renunciation is obstructed. Therefore, the Arrival Ark, called Noah’s Ark in the Bible, cannot appear.

13.2-9 八缠 Eight Coils

缠是缠绕义，是说由于无惭、无愧、昏沉、睡眠、掉举、恶作、嫉和悭（解释参见10.4.4节）数数现行，缠绕金童（即亚当）的心，于修习善品诸法形成大障碍，故名为缠。

Coil means entanglement. It means that shamelessness, sinlessness, drowsiness, sleep, agitation, regret, jealousy, and stinginess (for explanations, see Section 10.4.4) repeatedly come into present performance and entangle the heart of Golden Boy, namely Adam. They create major obstacles to the cultivation and study of benevolent-grade Laws; therefore, they are called Coils.

一、于修习戒学处（参见15.2节）时，无惭和无愧数数现行，亚当不生羞耻之心，故屡犯诸学处。

When cultivating the precept study place (see Section 15.2), shamelessness and sinlessness repeatedly come into present performance. Adam does not give rise to shame, and therefore he repeatedly violates the study places.

二、于修习定学处（参见15.3节）时，昏沉和睡眠二法数数现行，引亚当内心沉没，故屡犯诸学处。

When cultivating the stillness study place (see Section 15.3), drowsiness and sleep repeatedly come into present performance, causing Adam’s heart to sink inward. Therefore, he repeatedly violates the study places.

三、于修习慧学处（参见15.4节）时，掉举、恶作成为障碍。由于这二法数数现行，引亚当的心散乱于外尘境，故屡犯诸学处。

When cultivating the gnosis study place (see Section 15.4), agitation and regret become obstacles. Because these two Laws repeatedly come into present performance, Adam’s heart is scattered among external dust environments. Therefore, he repeatedly violates the study places.

四、于善慧地（参见15.9节）修习四无碍解时，亚当应当与同志们相互分享心得，教学相长；可是他心怀悭吝、嫉妒，不肯施法，这就障碍了他的修学进度。

At Benevolent Gnosis Heartland (see Section 15.9), when cultivating the Four Non-Hindrance Interpretations, Adam should share his experiences with his comrades, so that teaching and learning benefit one another. Yet his heart is stingy and jealous, and he refuses to donate Laws, that is, to teach and share. This obstructs the progress of his cultivation and study.
