放生故事:報(bào)仇的鱔魚
EELS TAKE REVENGE
報(bào)仇的鱔魚
Guizhou is one of the least developed areas of China. It is a mountainous province in the southwest. A man there named Lu liked eels so much that he couldn't eat a meal without some.
貴州是中國(guó)最不發(fā)達(dá)的地區(qū)之一,它是西南一個(gè)多山省份。有一個(gè)姓陸的人很喜歡吃鱔魚,如果沒(méi)有鱔魚,他就吃不下飯。
If anybody asked him why he ate so many eels, he always answered, "They taste so delicious!"
如果有人問(wèn)他問(wèn)什么他吃那么多鱔魚,他總是回答,"它們可好吃了!"
One day when he was sixty, he went to the market to buy some nice fat eels.
六十歲時(shí)的一天,他去市場(chǎng)買一些肥美的鱔魚。
A peddler called, "Want to buy fish? Fresh fish, live and fat, right here!"
一個(gè)小販喊道,"要魚嗎?新鮮的魚,又肥又新鮮,快來(lái)買啊!"
"Have you got eels?" Lu asked.
"有鱔魚嗎?"陸問(wèn)。
"Right here, in this urn," the peddler replied, so Lu rolled up his sleeve and stuck his arm into the urn to choose a plump eel. He had so much experience that he could choose a delicious eel this way, just by feeling. He didn't even have to look.
"有,在這個(gè)缸里,"小販回答,于是陸卷起了袖子,伸手到缸里去挑一些肥鱔魚。他經(jīng)驗(yàn)豐富,只需要憑感覺(jué)就能找出美味的鱔魚,看都不用看。
Things were different this day. When he stuck in his arm, his face suddenly lost all its color and he let out a bellow like a wounded bull. Everybody looked at him, and saw that all the eels in the urn had attacked Lu's arm, and were biting him as hard as they could.
但是這天很不對(duì)勁。他伸手進(jìn)去后,忽然面無(wú)血色,像一只受傷的牛那樣咆哮起來(lái)。大家都看著他,發(fā)現(xiàn)缸里所有的鱔魚都攻擊他的手臂,還拼命地咬他。
Nobody knew what to do. They couldn't get the eels off Lu's arm. Somebody ran to Lu's house, and his children came to the rescue with sharp shears. They cut the eels in half, but the heads stayed on Lu's arm, with their teeth buried in his flesh. By the time they had pried all of the eels' heads off, all the flesh was gone from Lu's arm, and he had died of the pain.
大家都沒(méi)有辦法。他們都沒(méi)法把鱔魚從陸的手臂上拿走。有人跑去通知陸家,陸的孩子們拿著鋒利的剪刀來(lái)救他,他們把鱔魚切成兩半,但是魚頭還是留在陸的手臂上,魚嘴緊緊地咬著他的肉。當(dāng)他們把鱔魚的頭都弄走時(shí),陸手臂上的肉全掉光了,他也在疼痛中死去了。
