詩曰：
紂王酷虐古今無，淫酗貪婪聽美姝。孕婦無辜遭惡劫，行人有難罹兇途。
诗曰：
纣王酷虐古今无，淫酗贪婪听美姝。孕妇无辜遭恶劫，行人有难罹凶途。
A poem says:
King Zhou’s cruelty had no match, then or since;drunk, lewd and greedy, he heeded a beautiful woman.Blameless women with child met a vicious fate;travellers in trouble fell on a murderous road.
遺譏簡冊稱殘賊，留與人間罵獨夫。天道悠悠難究竟，且將濁酒對花奴。
遗讥简册称残贼，留与人间骂独夫。天道悠悠难究竟，且将浊酒对花奴。
Mocked in the records, he is called ruiner and thief,left for the world to curse as the lone tyrant.The Way of Heaven is far off and hard to fathom;let me just take my cloudy wine and face the flower-girl.
話說姚庶良隨後趕來，常昊乃是蛇精，縱馬，腳下起一陣旋風，捲起一團黑霧，連人帶馬罩住，方現出他原形，乃是一根大蟒蛇；把口一張，吐出一陣毒氣。姚庶良禁不起，隨昏于馬下。常昊便下馬取了首級，大呼曰：「今拏姜尚如姚庶良為例！」眾諸侯之內，不知他是妖精，有兗州伯彭祖壽縱馬搖鎗，大呼曰：「匹夫敢傷吾大臣！」時有吳龍在袁洪右邊，見常昊立功，忍不住使兩口雙刀，催開馬，飛奔前來，曰：「不要沖吾陣腳！」也不答話，兩騎相交，刀鎗併舉，殺在陣前。六百鎮諸侯俱在左右，看看二將交兵。戰未數合，吳龍掩一刀敗走；彭祖壽隨後趕來。吳龍乃是蜈蚣精，見彭祖壽將近，隨現出原形；只見一陣風起，黑雲捲來，妖氣迷人，彭祖壽已不知人事，被吳龍一刀揮為兩斷。眾諸侯不知何故，只見將官追下去就是一塊黑雲罩住，將官隨即絕命。子牙傍邊有楊戩對哪吒曰：「此二將俱不是正經人，似有些妖氣。我與道兄一往，何如？」只見吳龍躍馬舞刀，飛奔軍前，大呼曰：「誰來先啖吾雙刀？」哪吒登開風火輪，使火尖鎗，現三首八臂迎來。吳龍曰：「來者是誰？」哪吒曰：「吾乃哪吒是也。你這業畜，怎敢將妖術傷吾諸侯！」把鎗一擺，直刺吳龍。吳龍手中刀急架交還，未及三四合，被哪吒祭起九龍神火罩，響一聲，將吳龍罩在裏面。吳龍已化道青光去了。哪吒用手一拍，及至罩中現出九條火龍時，吳龍去之久矣。常昊見哪吒用火龍罩罩住吳龍，心中大怒，縱馬持鎗，大呼曰：「哪吒不要走！吾來也！」只見楊戩使三尖刀，縱銀合馬，同哪吒雙戰常昊。常昊見勢不好，便敗下陣去。楊戩也不趕他，取彈弓在手，隨手發出金丸，照常昊打來。只見那金丸不知落于何處。哪吒後祭起神火罩，將常昊罩住；也似吳龍化一道赤光而去。袁洪見二將如此精奇，心下甚是歡喜，傳令：「三軍擂鼓！」袁洪縱馬沖殺過來，大呼曰：「姜子牙！我與你見個雌雄！」傍有楊任見袁洪沖來，急催開了雲霞獸，使開飛電鎗，敵住袁洪；戰有五七回合，楊任取出五火扇，照袁洪一搧，袁洪已預先走了，止燒死他一匹馬。子牙鳴金，將隊同營，陞帳坐下，歎曰：「可惜傷了二路諸侯！」心下不樂。楊戩上帳曰：「今日弟子看他三人俱是妖怪之相，不似人形。方纔哪吒祭神火罩，楊任用神火扇，弟子用金丸，俱不曾傷他，竟化青光而去。」只見眾諸侯也都議論常昊、吳龍之術，紛紛不一。
话说姚庶良随后赶来，常昊乃是蛇精，纵马，脚下起一阵旋风，卷起一团黑雾，连人带马罩住，方现出他原形，乃是一根大蟒蛇；把口一张，吐出一阵毒气。姚庶良禁不起，随昏于马下。常昊便下马取了首级，大呼曰：「今拏姜尚如姚庶良为例！」众诸侯之内，不知他是妖精，有兖州伯彭祖寿纵马摇鎗，大呼曰：「匹夫敢伤吾大臣！」时有吴龙在袁洪右边，见常昊立功，忍不住使两口双刀，催开马，飞奔前来，曰：「不要冲吾阵脚！」也不答话，两骑相交，刀鎗并举，杀在阵前。六百镇诸侯俱在左右，看看二将交兵。战未数合，吴龙掩一刀败走；彭祖寿随后赶来。吴龙乃是蜈蚣精，见彭祖寿将近，随现出原形；只见一阵风起，黑云卷来，妖气迷人，彭祖寿已不知人事，被吴龙一刀挥为两断。众诸侯不知何故，只见将官追下去就是一块黑云罩住，将官随即绝命。子牙傍边有杨戬对哪吒曰：「此二将俱不是正经人，似有些妖气。我与道兄一往，何如？」只见吴龙跃马舞刀，飞奔军前，大呼曰：「谁来先啖吾双刀？」哪吒登开风火轮，使火尖鎗，现三首八臂迎来。吴龙曰：「来者是谁？」哪吒曰：「吾乃哪吒是也。你这业畜，怎敢将妖术伤吾诸侯！」把鎗一摆，直刺吴龙。吴龙手中刀急架交还，未及三四合，被哪吒祭起九龙神火罩，响一声，将吴龙罩在里面。吴龙已化道青光去了。哪吒用手一拍，及至罩中现出九条火龙时，吴龙去之久矣。常昊见哪吒用火龙罩罩住吴龙，心中大怒，纵马持鎗，大呼曰：「哪吒不要走！吾来也！」只见杨戬使三尖刀，纵银合马，同哪吒双战常昊。常昊见势不好，便败下阵去。杨戬也不赶他，取弹弓在手，随手发出金丸，照常昊打来。只见那金丸不知落于何处。哪吒后祭起神火罩，将常昊罩住；也似吴龙化一道赤光而去。袁洪见二将如此精奇，心下甚是欢喜，传令：「三军擂鼓！」袁洪纵马冲杀过来，大呼曰：「姜子牙！我与你见个雌雄！」傍有杨任见袁洪冲来，急催开了云霞兽，使开飞电鎗，敌住袁洪；战有五七回合，杨任取出五火扇，照袁洪一扇，袁洪已预先走了，止烧死他一匹马。子牙鸣金，将队同营，升帐坐下，叹曰：「可惜伤了二路诸侯！」心下不乐。杨戬上帐曰：「今日弟子看他三人俱是妖怪之相，不似人形。方才哪吒祭神火罩，杨任用神火扇，弟子用金丸，俱不曾伤他，竟化青光而去。」只见众诸侯也都议论常昊、吴龙之术，纷纷不一。
Now, Yao Shuliang came chasing after him. Chang Hao was a snake spirit. He gave his horse its head; a whirlwind rose beneath his feet and rolled up a mass of black fog that covered man and horse alike, and then he showed his true form: a great python. He opened his mouth and breathed out a blast of poisonous vapour. Yao Shuliang could not stand against it and fell senseless from his horse. Chang Hao got down, took his head and shouted, “This is how we’ll take Jiang Shang — look at Yao Shuliang!” None of the lords knew he was a demon. Peng Zushou, Lord of Yanzhou, spurred his horse and shook his spear, shouting, “Churl, how dare you harm our great minister!” Now Wu Long was at Yuan Hong’s right. Seeing Chang Hao win merit, he could not hold himself back. Wielding a pair of sabres, he urged his horse on and came flying forward, saying, “Don’t you charge the foot of our line!” Without a word of reply the two horses met, spear and sabres raised together, and they fought before the lines. The six hundred lords all stood to left and right, watching the two generals fight. Before they had fought many bouts, Wu Long feinted with a sabre and fled, and Peng Zushou gave chase. Wu Long was a centipede spirit. When he saw Peng Zushou close behind him, he showed his true form: a wind sprang up, black cloud came rolling in, the demonic vapour bewildered the senses, and Peng Zushou knew nothing more of what went on around him. With one stroke of his sabre Wu Long cut him in two. The lords could not tell what had happened. They only saw that whenever an officer chased after him, a patch of black cloud covered the officer, and he died on the spot. At Ziya’s side, Yang Jian said to Nezha, “Neither of those two generals is a proper man; there’s something demonic about them. What if you and I go out together, Daoist brother?” Then Wu Long came galloping up before the army, whirling his sabres, and shouted, “Who’s first to taste my two sabres?” Nezha set the wheels of wind and fire turning, wielded the Fire-Tipped Spear, showed his three heads and eight arms, and came to meet him. Wu Long said, “Who are you that comes?” Nezha said, “I am Nezha. You beast, how dare you harm our lords with sorcery!” He swung his spear and stabbed straight at Wu Long. Wu Long quickly parried with his sabres and struck back. Before they had fought three or four bouts, Nezha sent up the Nine-Dragon Divine Fire Cover. With a ringing sound it shut Wu Long inside — but Wu Long had already turned into a streak of blue-green light and gone. Nezha clapped his hand, and by the time nine fire dragons appeared inside the cover, Wu Long was long gone. When Chang Hao saw Nezha shut Wu Long in the Divine Fire Cover, he was enraged. He spurred his horse, gripped his spear and shouted, “Nezha, don’t run! Here I come!” Then Yang Jian, wielding his three-pointed blade on his silver-grey horse, joined Nezha in fighting Chang Hao two against one. Chang Hao saw things going badly and fled from the field. Yang Jian did not chase him either. He took his slingshot in hand and let fly a golden pellet at Chang Hao — but where the pellet landed, nobody knew. Then Nezha sent up the Divine Fire Cover and shut Chang Hao in; and he too, like Wu Long, turned into a streak of red light and was gone. When Yuan Hong saw how wonderfully uncanny his two generals were, he was delighted and gave the order: “Let the three armies beat the drums!” He spurred his horse and charged, shouting, “Jiang Ziya! Let you and me see which of us is the better man!” At the side, Yang Ren saw Yuan Hong charging. He quickly urged on his cloud-glow beast and, wielding his Flying Lightning Spear, held Yuan Hong off. When they had fought five or seven bouts, Yang Ren took out his Five-Fire Fan and fanned it at Yuan Hong; but Yuan Hong had already made off, and the fire only burned his horse to death. Ziya sounded the gong, brought his troops back to camp, took his seat in the command tent and sighed, “What a pity we lost two lords!” He was heavy at heart. Yang Jian came up into the tent and said, “Today your disciple saw that all three of them had the look of demons, not of men. Just now Nezha sent up the Divine Fire Cover, Yang Ren used the Divine Fire Fan and your disciple used his golden pellets, and none of it hurt them — they just turned into blue-green light and were gone.” The lords, too, were all talking about the arts of Chang Hao and Wu Long, every man with his own opinion.
