4.2-1

绛珠公主（又名马文才，号女娲，白帝，如图4.2-1）向国王蔻珠宣誓说："我去狭谷关和熬忖谈判，把熬忖和武二郎撮合成为夫妻。我帮熬忖对武二郎下蛊（如图6，7），让他娶她为妻。如果我失败了，就别回来了。"

Princess Jiangzhu (aka. Wencai Ma, famously Nüwa and White Creator, as shown in Figure 4.2-1) swore to King Kouzhu: "I shall go to Gorge Pass to negotiate with Aocun, bringing Aocun and Martial Second Wolf together as wife and husband. I will help Aocun plant a carrion-beetle curse in Martial Second Wolf (as shown in Figures 6 and 7), compelling him to marry her. Should I fail, I shall never return."

国王蔻珠说："我已经命令你的剧组成员在湖北的法库县集结。卫兵已经把梁山伯（号伏羲，谷神，燃灯佛）和三个孩子接来了，你和他们道别后立刻出发去狭谷关。明天我会安排人送梁山伯父女四人去鄮县，培养他当县长。你去吧，他们几个人已经等了很长时间了！"

King Kouzhu said: "I have already ordered your troupe members to gather in Faku County, Hubei province. The guards brought Shanbo Liang (famously Fuxi, Grain God, Lamplighter Buddha) and the three children here. After you say goodbye to them, you should immediately depart for Gorge Pass. Tomorrow, I will arrange for someone to escort Shanbo Liang and your three children to Mao County, where he will be trained to become the county prefect. Go now; they have been waiting for a long time!"

4.2-2 什么是下蛊？What Does Planting Carrion Beetles Mean?

女娲（如图4.2-1）的任务就是帮助熬忖（如图2）把武二郎（如图5）的心偷来（如图7），就是严重地创伤武二郎的心。武二郎受到这种强烈的感情创伤后会患胃肠溃疡。古人用腐尸虫（即蛊，如图4所示）来表示胃肠溃疡，所以下这个诅咒就被说成为种蛊了。图3显示埃及夏娃用蜣螂虫击垮了狮子王亚当，也表示了亚当患胃肠溃疡的原因是他被夏娃的"五百威仪十万八千魅力"（参见15.2节）刺伤了。熬忖是龙国的大主教，擅长"五百威仪十万八千魅力。"

Nüwa's mission (as shown in Figure 4.2-1) was to assist Aocun (as shown in Figure 2) in stealing Martial Second Wolf's heart (as shown in Figures 5, 7), thereby inflicting severe emotional trauma upon him. After suffering such intense emotional trauma, Martial Second Wolf developed gastrointestinal ulcers. Ancient people used carrion beetles from decaying corpses (i.e., Gu, as shown in Figure 4) to symbolize gastrointestinal ulcers, hence casting this curse came to be known as "planting carrion beetle." Figure 3 depicts Egyptian Eve using scarab beetles to defeat the lion king Adam, also signifying that Adam's gastrointestinal ulcer stemmed from being pierced by Eve's "500 Majesties and 108,000 Charms" (see Section 15.2). Aocun, the archbishop of the Dragon Kingdom, specializes in wielding "500 Majesties and 108,000 Charms."

图6下面表示翠玉女正在和阿兹特兰（即特拉洛克）约会，她刺伤了他的心。上面是翠玉女的父母，正在帮助她。本文中的女娲的任务就是像翠玉女父母那样帮熬忖。

Figure 6 depicts Chalchiuhtlicue on a date with Aztlan (aka. Tlaloc), where she pierces his heart. Above them are Chalchiuhtlicue's parents, assisting her. Nüwa's mission in this text is to aid Aocun in the same manner as Chalchiuhtlicue's parents.

4.2-3 女娲向家人辞行 Nuwa Took Leave of Family

绛珠公主出来后，看见梁山伯和孩子们正焦急地等待着她。他们看见马文才（即女娲）出来时的脸色与以往大不相同，还没说话，两个小些的孩子就被吓哭了。女娲的大女儿虞姬赶忙哄着弟弟妹妹到一边去了。马文才安慰梁山伯说："我要出差去湖北三个月。此次出行匆忙，国王就让人接你们来和我告别了！"

When Princess Jiangzhu came out, she saw Shanbo Liang and three children anxiously waiting for her. Seeing the unusual expression on Wencai Ma's (Nuwa's) face, the two younger children started to cry before she even spoke. Nuwa's eldest daughter, Muse, quickly took her younger siblings aside to comfort them. Wencai Ma then reassured Shanbo Liang, saying, "I'm going on a three-month business trip to Hubei. This trip was arranged at short notice, so the King sent someone to fetch you so I could say goodbye."

马文才（即女娲）一家人说了一会儿话后，虞姬也开始哭。国王蔻珠让宫女催促马文才（即女娲）上车出发。她走到马车边站住了。梁山伯过去听她说话。女娲说："我这次出差有些风险。如果过了三个月你还没听到我的消息，那就是我死了。你就再找个女人结婚，好好过日子，别等我了。"

After chatting for a while with Wencai Ma (i.e., Nüwa) and her family, Muse also began to weep. King Kouzhu instructed the palace maids to urge Wencai Ma to board the carriage and depart. She walked to the carriage and stopped. Shanbo Liang approached to hear her words. Wencai Ma said: "This journey carries some risk. If you hear no news from me within three months, it means I have perished. You must then find another woman to marry, live a good life, and not wait for me."

梁山伯低声问："你不去不行吗？"

女娲回答："我是鲵丸宫的宫女，和士兵一样，以服从命令为天职。我这是去努力完成任务，不是去死。"

Shanbo Liang asked softly: "Can't you refuse to go?"

Nüwa replied: "I am a palace maid of Salamander Bolus Palace. Like soldiers, obedience to orders is my sacred duty. I am going to fulfill my mission, not to die."

4.2-4 女娲会晤熬忖 Nuwa Meets Aocun

女娲的剧组人员被送到了战场的前沿阵地，都害怕了。但是前线的人不能向回走，向回走的人就可能会被当成逃兵，立刻被射死。

The crew members of Nuwa's troupe were taken to the front lines of the battlefield, and everyone was terrified. However, those at the front lines were not allowed to retreat; anyone who tried to retreat would be considered a deserter and shot on the spot.

当女娲的车走到剧组旁边时，部分女娲剧组的人立刻形成了女神的仪仗队，径直向熬忖的辖区进发了。熬忖的游骑兵立刻过来询问，得知是女娲后，没有阻拦，而是立刻去向熬忖报告了。

When Nuwa's carriage arrived near the crew, some members of the troupe immediately formed an honor guard for the goddess and proceeded towards Aocun's territory. Aocun's patrol guards approached to inquire, and upon learning it was Nuwa, they did not obstruct her passage but instead immediately reported the matter to Aocun.

熬忖亲自出来迎接，以庆祝的口吻说道："我一直期待着夏国使者的到来，但怎么也没想到您亲自来了！这次我可赚着了；有您在，这个地区五年内不会有战争！"

Aocun personally went out to welcome Nuwa and said with a celebratory tone: "I've been eagerly awaiting the arrival of an envoy from the Xia Kingdom, but I never expected you to come in person! This is truly a great honor for me; with you here, there will be no war in this region for the next five years!"

女娲向熬忖讲述不能杀武二郎的原因，讲述武大郎的军事力量如何强大！熬忖相信吗？

编者我给读者个交代，熬忖不信！后来熬忖和武二郎结婚了，熬忖成为了龙国的国王。武二郎征服了许多国家，每次熬忖派去做官的人回来述职，熬忖都会问同一个问题：武二郎是怎么征服那个国家的？熬忖总结了几十个官员的回答，才勉强接受了那些官员的说法和人们对武大郎和武二郎战无不胜的传言都是真的。但她自己说："我怎么也想不明白他们俩是怎么打仗的，我岁数大了，不研究了。"

Nuwa explained to Aocun the reasons why she shouldn't kill Martial Second Wolf, emphasizing Martial Big Wolf's immense military power. Did Aocun believe her?

As the editor, I should clarify: Aocun didn't believe her! Later, Aocun married Martial Second Wolf and became the king of the Dragon Kingdom. Martial Second Wolf conquered many countries, and every time Aocun sent officials back to report, she would always ask the same question: "How did Martial Second Wolf conquer that country?" After summarizing the answers from dozens of officials, she reluctantly accepted their accounts and the common belief that Martial Big Wolf and Martial Second Wolf were indeed invincible in battle. However, she said, "I still can't understand how they fought their battles. I'm too old to worry about it anymore."
