二班頭饑餓尋和尚兩豪傑酒館求濟公

二班头饥饿寻和尚两豪杰酒馆求济公

Two hungry head constables go looking for the monk;Two gallant heroes plead with Ji Gong in a tavern

仿清末石印本的线描:酒楼后厅的桌边,破衣僧侧着半个身子,一臂圈着一张纸,拿笔写字,回头眯着眼、奸笑着;桌上有笔筒、砚台、酒壶和酒杯;他身后,虬髯大汉和披斗篷的清秀青年剑客都探身向前,伸着脖子偷看。

話說濟公正在酒館跟文魁說話,由外面進來了兩個人。夥計一看,這兩個人穿著月白褲褂,左大襟,白骨頭鈕子,原來是柴元祿、杜振英二位班頭。

话说济公正在酒馆跟文魁说话,由外面进来了两个人。伙计一看,这两个人穿着月白裤褂,左大襟,白骨头钮子,原来是柴元禄、杜振英二位班头。

Now, Ji Gong was in the tavern talking with Wenkui when two men came in from outside. The waiter looked them over. The pair wore jackets and trousers of pale moon-blue, lapped over on the left, with white bone buttons. They were none other than the two head constables, Chai Yuanlu and Du Zhenying.

他兩人自從跟和尚捉迷藏,這兩個人找不著和尚,柴、杜二人腰中一文錢沒有,連夜追到小月屯。次日直餓了一天一夜,圍著小月屯找遍了,也沒找著和尚。兩個人又餓又氣,正在街上閒遊,遠遠望見濟公赤著背,同著一個人,穿著和尚的僧衣,進了酒館。柴、杜二人來到酒館一看,柴頭說:「好,你在這裡吃上了,我們兩個人直餓了一天一夜。」和尚說:「你們兩個人嘴懶,為什麼不吃呢。」柴、杜二人說:「沒錢,吃什麼?」夥計說:「這倒不錯,又來了兩個白吃的。」柴、杜二人餓急了,坐下就吃。夥計暗中告訴掌柜的說:「一個窮和尚同著一個光眼子的,又來了兩個怯貨,大概都是沒錢。」

他两人自从跟和尚捉迷藏,这两个人找不着和尚,柴、杜二人腰中一文钱没有,连夜追到小月屯。次日直饿了一天一夜,围着小月屯找遍了,也没找着和尚。两个人又饿又气,正在街上闲游,远远望见济公赤着背,同着一个人,穿着和尚的僧衣,进了酒馆。柴、杜二人来到酒馆一看,柴头说:「好,你在这里吃上了,我们两个人直饿了一天一夜。」和尚说:「你们两个人嘴懒,为什么不吃呢。」柴、杜二人说:「没钱,吃什么?」伙计说:「这倒不错,又来了两个白吃的。」柴、杜二人饿急了,坐下就吃。伙计暗中告诉掌柜的说:「一个穷和尚同着一个光眼子的,又来了两个怯货,大概都是没钱。」

Ever since the two of them had started playing hide-and-seek with the monk, they had not been able to find him. Chai and Du had not a single copper on them, and they chased after him through the night to Xiaoyue Village. The next day they went hungry, a whole day and a night, and they searched all round Xiaoyue Village without finding the monk. Hungry and angry, the two were wandering along the street when far off they saw Ji Gong, bare to the waist, going into a tavern with a man who was wearing a monk’s robe. Chai and Du came to the tavern and looked in. “Fine!” said Head Constable Chai. “Here you are, eating away, while the two of us have gone hungry a whole day and a night.” “You two are too lazy to open your mouths,” said the monk. “Why don’t you eat?” “No money,” said Chai and Du. “What are we supposed to eat with?” “Well, isn’t this nice,” said the waiter. “Two more come to eat for free.” Chai and Du were so starved that they sat down and started eating. The waiter quietly told the manager, “A beggarly monk with a half-naked fellow, and now two bumpkins have come in. I expect none of them has any money.”

掌柜的說:「等他們吃完再說。」正在這般光景,只聽外面一聲喊嚷:「老三,你我到裡面吃杯酒,好一座慶豐樓。」說著話,進來兩個人。頭前一位赤發紅須藍靛臉,紫緞色壯士帽,紫箭袖袍,腰系皮挺帶,披藍緞色英雄大氅,後跟這位身穿白褂,翠白臉膛,俊品人物,正是

風裡雲煙雷鳴,聖手白猿陳亮。

這兩個人在馬靜家,自華雲龍走後,馬靜說:「雷、陳二位賢弟,在我這裡多住幾天罷。」雷鳴、陳亮說:「兄台不必相留,我二人還有事呢,天亮我二人就要告辭。」等到天亮,雷鳴、陳亮告辭,馬靜說:「二位賢弟,吃了飯再走。」陳亮說:「我二人實有要緊事呢,你我知己之交,何在一頓飯。」

掌柜的说:「等他们吃完再说。」正在这般光景,只听外面一声喊嚷:「老三,你我到里面吃杯酒,好一座庆丰楼。」说着话,进来两个人。头前一位赤发红须蓝靛脸,紫缎色壮士帽,紫箭袖袍,腰系皮挺带,披蓝缎色英雄大氅,后跟这位身穿白褂,翠白脸膛,俊品人物,正是

风里云烟雷鸣,圣手白猿陈亮。

这两个人在马静家,自华云龙走后,马静说:「雷、陈二位贤弟,在我这里多住几天罢。」雷鸣、陈亮说:「兄台不必相留,我二人还有事呢,天亮我二人就要告辞。」等到天亮,雷鸣、陈亮告辞,马静说:「二位贤弟,吃了饭再走。」陈亮说:「我二人实有要紧事呢,你我知己之交,何在一顿饭。」

“Wait till they’ve finished eating and then we’ll see,” said the manager. Just then there came a shout from outside: “Third Brother, let’s go in and have a cup of wine. What a fine place, this Qingfeng Tower!” And with that two men came in. The one in front had red hair, a red beard and an indigo face, and wore a purple satin warrior’s cap, a purple robe with archer’s cuffs and a stiff leather belt at his waist, with a blue satin hero’s cloak over his shoulders. The one behind him wore a white jacket and had a fair, jade-white face, a handsome figure of a man. They were

Cloud and Smoke in the Wind, Lei Ming,and the Masterful White Ape, Chen Liang.

These two had been staying at Ma Jing’s house. After Hua Yunlong left, Ma Jing said, “My good brothers Lei and Chen, stay a few more days with me.” “There’s no need to keep us, brother,” said Lei Ming and Chen Liang. “We still have business to see to. At daybreak we’ll take our leave.” When day broke, Lei Ming and Chen Liang said goodbye. “My good brothers,” said Ma Jing, “have something to eat before you go.” “We really do have urgent business,” said Chen Liang. “You and we are close friends. What does one meal matter between us?”
