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。
In spire of the detailed plans of the site,it took Suzhen more than three hours to reach the exact location where the herbs were to be found. |
She knew that the season for the plant that she was searching for was coming to end,but hoped that in spite of all the wild goats at least a few could still be found. |
There!Hundreds of these plants were growing underneath a ledge of white rock. |
One or two of them would have been enough for Suzhen’s needs. |
But evidently(很显然)the power of heavn were in no mood to share their property(财富)voluntarily(自愿地). |
As Suzhen approached the field where the herbs were growing abundantly(大量的),she suddenly heard screeching sounds coming at her from all directions. |
Before she could even touch a single leaf of the desired plants,an army of innumerable（无数的） white cranes besieged(围攻）the terrain(领域)-ready to attack and annihilate(消灭)the intruder(入侵者). |
Up against such superiority(优势),it was simply impossible for Suzhen,in spite of all her magical powers,to reach even a single leaf of required plant. |
Deciding to risk everything,Suzhen gathered every last drop of magic power to call the most powerful deity(神仙) of the mountains,the＂old immortal of the South Pole＂,to her help. |
＂Who dares to interrupt the deep silence of our mountains?＂ |
Suzhen told the immortal the entire heart-breaking tale of her life,from the depth of the West Lake up to the dramatic incidents on the eve of the Dragon Boat Festival. |
Moved by Suzhen’s touching account(感人的事情),the immortal ordered their guards,the white cranes,to fill a basket with the required herbs at once. |
In friendship and harmony(和谐),the white lady said farewell（告别） to the immortal of the mountains,climbed up onto the same cloud that had brought her here only a few hours ago and headed back eastward(向东) to her beloved West Lake-in order to release her husband Xian from the magical stupor(昏迷). |
The sound of the Nanping Bell had just trailed off(减弱) as Bai Suzhen,poised(使平衡) on her cloud,floated down to the nocturnal (夜间的)Hangzhou. |
