席慕蓉诗中说,前世500年的回眸,换得今生的一次擦肩而过。
郭德纲相声说,前世500年的回眸,换得今生的无痛人流。
你说,前世500年的回眸,能换得今生的什么呢?
很喜欢德国人Helmut Matt &美国人Linda Marie Matt合著的<The Magic Of The White Snake>(白蛇传奇),现摘抄其中的片段,仅供爱好者欣赏,如喜欢,希请购买正版。
It was the evening of the Dragon Boat Festival. |
The red gold rays of the setting sun were reflected on the tranquil surface of the lake. |
Everywhere,cheerful people stood around in groups,conducting(传递) animated(生气勃勃的) conversations,laughing and enjoying the final hours of a beautiful holiday. |
"I think this the most beautiful dragon boat regatta()I have ever seen,"Bai Suzhen nibbled()blissfully()on a zongzi filled with gorond meat. |
She,her huasband Xian,and their friend Xiao Qing had found a seat in a cozy tea house to have some food and green tea and watch the colorful dragon boats returning to the various landing stages of the lake. |
Not all guests who had come to the West Lake that night were in good sprits and enjoying themselves. |
For weeks,Suzhen had had the dim() feeling that she was being watched undeviatingly() by a pair of invisible eyes. |
Xian,who had not noticed these incidents,tried to calm her down. |
"There really is nothing,"he consistenly() repeated. |
"Pregnant women are often extremely senstive to sounds and external()impressions." |
However,Suzhen’s feeling did not deceive()her. |
It was Fa Hai,the fake monk,who,for days,had not lost sight of her. |
On the same night that he had heard about that pharmacy near the West Lake and its miracilous medicine,he had set off towards Hangzhou. |
He had to see who dared sabotage(毁坏) his"work",making his efforts almost fruitless(无果的). |
Looking through a window of the pharmacy,he saw a young man serving a female customer. |
Two women were working in the background-one of them clothed all in white,the other one in green. |
He immediately recognized that the beautiful white lady could be none other than Bai Suzhen,the white snake from the depths of the West Lake. |
From this day on,he followed his former rival at every turn(每次),waiting with stubborn(坚持的) patience for the perfect moment of revenge(报复). |
He long since(早就) had detected that Suzhen was an expecting mother,andthat she therefore was not in full possession of her magical power. |
This weakness had to betaken advantage of(利用). |
