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。
西湖美景，白蛇传奇
The true magic of the West Lake and its people can only be fully experienced by knowing about the secret of the white snake.
(唯有知晓了白蛇的秘密，方能真正读懂西湖美景和生活在那里的人们。)
As Suzhen once had journeyed to Kunlun Mountain,Xiao Qing now too,set herself upon a cloud and ordered it to carry her to Mount Emei. |
Almost five years would passed by until the green lady would once again see her beloved West Lake and her friends. |
In those days,it was very unusual that women were allowed to enter a monastery. |
Nonetheless,the brothers of Mount Emei gave her a warm welcome,but made it clear that many days of abstinence(节欲) and penance(修行),as well as difficult examinations would lie before(摆在面前) her. |
Through five years of hard labor,ascetic life,and abmitious training in all kinds of combat techniques she would become a master of all disciplines(训练). |
Qing was a true model student. |
No exercise was diffcult enough for her,and no work too hard. |
Especially in the combat techniques,she was very adroit(熟练的) and surprised her teachers,again and again,with ingenious(聪明的) ideas. |
Barely five years had passed,when the abbot told her that there was nothing further which could be taught to her in his monastry. |
In all disciplines,she was highly superior to her teachers. |
＂I wish that you could stay and support us!＂The abbot smiled. |
＂But I think I know that you have a very important mission to fulfill(实现).Good luck,Xiao Qing.We will all miss you here very much.＂ |
Deep moved,and with a box of presents from the brothers,the green lady,on the same day,sat down on a cloud and started her journey home. |
Xian was overjoyed as his friend opened the pharmacy’s door in the early morning. |
He laid the recipe(处方) aside with which he had just been occupied. (occupy with:从事) |
＂I knew that you woudn’t forget us!How wonderful to have you back home!＂ |
Not until the door opened and customer entered did he release her hands,which he had been holding so tightly up until this moment. |
He gave the medicine to the customer,said goodbye and closed the pharmacy’s door behind her. |
＂That’s it for today.You have to tell me what happened to you.And then I will bring you to the lad.During the day,a nursemaid cares for(照料) him.＂ |
But Qing did not want to lose any time. |
＂No,Xian.I have already waited too long for this day.＂ ＂I will go to the Leifeng pagoda within the hour.＂ |
＂You may accompany(陪伴) me for a while,but you have to promise me to wait in a safe distance.＂ |
＂I won’t let you risk anything.＂ |
