在琼州（现在的海南省），一天，孺子牛（又名牛郎，杨过）带着尘香（又名卢堂左，如图3.5-3）和尘凡（又名卢堂右）去龙宫看望龙王熬钦。龙王劝孺子牛放下心中的执念，不要期待小龙女（又名夏娃，舜王，顺皇，女娲，嫘祖，如图1，3）会回到他的身边，应该珍惜目前的生活。孺子牛不爱听，出去检查龙宫的维护工作了。

In Qiong Continent (present-day Hainan Province), one day, Able-calf (aka. Cowboy, Sin) took Dust-scent (aka. Hall-left Lu, as shown in Figure 3.5-3) and Dust-mortal (aka. Hall-right Lu) to Dragon Palace to visit Dragon King Aoqin. Dragon King urged Able-calf to let go of his obsessive longing, advising him not to expect Little Dragoness (aka. Eve, King Shun, White-king Shun, Nuwa, Lei Ancestor, see figs. 1, 3) to return to his side and instead to cherish his present life. Able-calf refused to listen and went out to inspect the maintenance work for the Dragon Palace.

1. 龙王传教 Dragon King's Missionary Works

看见孺子牛又走了，龙王对尘香和尘凡叨咕：“你们的爸爸就那么犟！他都活不到40岁，就因为犟。以前他和大禹（又名黄帝，法师，禹皇，如图2）争你们的妈妈（即顺皇）。我就配合大禹，对你爸爸说， ‘大禹说话我只能听懂三分之二。’ 他就信了。后来顺皇对他说了几次， ‘大禹想跟他谈谈，开导开导他。’ 他都拒绝说， ‘大禹说话，龙王才能听懂三分之二，我听不懂。’如果你们的爸爸能让大禹开导开导，他就不会是今天这个样子了！”

Seeing Able-calf depart once more, Dragon King muttered to Dust-scent and Dust-mortal: "Your father was so stubborn! He didn't even live to see forty, all because of his stubbornness. Back then, he fought with Big Yu (aka. Yellow Creator, Juristic Teacher, White-king Yu, as shown in Fig. 2) over your mother (that is, White-king Shun). I sided with Big Yu and told your father, 'I can only understand two-thirds of what Big Yu says.' He believed it. Later, when White-king Shun told him several times, ‘Big Yu wishes to speak with you, to offer guidance,’ he refused each time, saying, ‘Big Yu speaks in a way that only Dragon King can understand two-thirds of. I cannot comprehend it.’ If your father had allowed Big Yu to guide him, he wouldn't be in this state today!"

一天，孺子牛又带着尘香和尘凡来看望龙王敖钦，说几句话后，又出去修龙宫了。龙王生气地叨咕：“这个破房子，总修它干啥呀！我不喜欢这座房子，我喜欢我的福建龙宫。”他就开始给尘香和尘凡描述他在福建的家，说那栋房子现在值六千两银子，没人照看。

这时尘香已经十多岁了，知道安慰人了，说：“龙王爷爷！你放心，以后我和尘凡去福建，买下那座龙宫，好好保管！”

龙王回答：“正是！我是龙国的太子，我不能回去大陆。你们俩和我根本就不一样，现在都没人管你们俩了，再过几年，谁还记得你们俩是政治犯。顺皇是你们的妈妈，虎毒不食子，她能把你们怎么样！只是你们的爸爸他自己那么想，不让你们俩联系大陆人，把大禹赶走了！琼洲这地方太小。以后，你们俩应该去福建发展。你们去北方做生意不行，你俩没有那些图像思维型和语音思维型人聪明。你们哥俩是运动思维型人，能打；福建黑社会猖獗，你们哥俩在福建做生意就有优势了。”

One day, Able-calf brought Dust-scent and Dust-mortal to visit Dragon King Aoqin again. After exchanging a few words, he went out to repairing the Dragon Palace. Dragon King grumbled angrily, "This rotten house! Why keep fixing it? I don't like this place. I miss my Fujian Dragon Palace." He began describing his home in Fujian to Dust-scent and Dust-mortal, mentioning that the palace was now worth 6,000 taels of silver but lay neglected.

Dust-scent, now over ten years old, knew how to comfort people. He said, “Grandfather Dragon King! Don't worry. When Dust-mortal and I go to Fujian, we'll buy that Dragon Palace and take good care of it!”

Dragon King replied, "Exactly! I am the crown prince of the Dragon Kingdom and cannot return to the mainland. You two are fundamentally different from me. Now that no one is watching over you, in a few years, who will even remember you were political prisoners? White-king Shun is your mother—even a tiger doesn't eat its own cubs. What could she possibly do to you! It's just your father who insists on cutting you off from mainland contacts—that's why he sent Big Yu away! Qiong Continent is too small. You two should go to Fujian to make your fortune. You won't succeed in northern business ventures—you lack the cleverness of visual thinkers and linguistic thinkers. As kinesthetic thinkers, you excel in physical strength. With Fujian's rampant organized crime, your physical prowess will give you an edge in business there."

一天，孺子牛又带着尘香和尘凡来看望龙王敖钦。说几句话后，他又出去修龙宫了。龙王哭了。尘香赶忙安慰说：“龙王爷爷！有什么话你想说，你就说；我们的爸爸不听，我们哥俩听！”

龙王哭着说：“有一件事，我琢磨许多年了，想不明白！”

尘香安慰说：“您是我外公玉皇大帝亲封的中华文明的九位缔造者之一，大禹叔叔亲自证实了的，你是这世界上最聪明的人之一，怎么还有您琢磨不明白的事呢！？”

One day, Able-calf brought Dust-scent and Dust-mortal to visit Dragon King Aoqin again. After exchanging a few words, he went back to repairing the Dragon Palace. The Dragon King wept. Dust-scent hurried to comfort him, saying, “Grandfather Dragon King! If there's anything you want to say, just speak up; our father won't listen, but we brothers will!”

Dragon King cried as he said, “There's one affair I've pondered for many years, yet I still can't figure it out!”

Dust-scent comforted him, saying, “You're one of the nine founders of Chinese civilization personally appointed by my grandfather, Turquoise White-king Great Creator. Uncle Big Yu himself confirmed it—you're one of the wisest people in the world! How could there be anything you can't figure out!?”

龙王说：“你们的妈妈顺皇是个恶毒的女人！大禹是众神之子，他肯定知道：他早晚会被你们的妈妈害死。但是当你们的爸爸孺子牛有病的时候，大禹千方百计地为你爸爸治病。如果你爸爸病死了，那个女人也就死了，这不正好吗！那大禹就成为国王了！我怎么也想不明白，大禹为什么要救你们的爸爸？他明明知道救了你们的爸爸和那个女人之后，他很快就会被那个女人折磨死！”

他们三人讨论了很长的时间，尘香和尘凡回答不出来。龙王说：“你们俩以后遇见大禹了，替我问问。然后在为我烧香的时候，告诉我大禹是怎么想的！”

Dragon King said, "Your mother, White-king Shun, is a wicked woman! Big Yu is the son of the gods. He must have known that sooner or later, your mother would kill him. But when your father, Able-calf, fell ill, Big Yu tried every possible means to cure him. If your father had died from his illness, that woman would have died too—wouldn't that have been perfect? Then Big Yu would have become king (emperor of China)! I simply cannot fathom why Big Yu would save your father! He clearly knew that after saving your father and that woman, he would soon be tormented to death by her!"

The three of them discussed for a long time, but Dust-scent and Dust-mortal couldn't answer. Dragon King said, “When you two meet Big Yu in the future, ask him for me. Then, when you burn incense for me, tell me what Big Yu thinks!”

2. 向往外面的世界 Longing for the outside world

龙王过世了。尘香和尘凡所在学校的老师们跑没了，倒闭了。他们哥俩没事做，坐在海边向往大陆的世界。

一次这哥儿俩自己做竹筏，要渡过琼州海峡，到大陆看看。结果，竹筏在海中沉没，一位好心的渔民救了他们。这位渔民就成为了这俩孩子的好朋友。

Dragon King has passed away. The teachers at Dust-scent and Dust-mortal's school have all disappeared, and the school has gone out of business. With nothing to do, the two brothers sit by the sea, longing for the world on the mainland.

Once, the two brothers built their own bamboo raft to cross the Qiong’zhou Strait and see the mainland. But their raft sank in the sea, and a kind fisherman rescued them. This fisherman became a good friend to the two children.

3. 嬉儿失踪了 Xi’er is Missing

孺子牛搬家到了琼州的内陆地区。一天孺子牛的妻子嬉儿不见了，去政府报警。政府的官员说嬉儿不在涅槃（商朝的档案系统）里。牛郎认为： “这可能是龙王在雇佣嬉儿时没到政府登记。那她应该在浙江的白毛山有记录。” 政府的官员查了一下涅槃，说：“浙江的白毛女山也不在涅槃里。可能是你说的这个白毛女山只是几个村子的人所用的地名。不过不要紧，我们相信你说的，为嬉儿建立失踪档案，寻找嬉儿。只是关于嬉儿的任何事都不记录在你们家的涅槃里。”

Able-calf moved his family to the inland region of Qiong Continent. One day, his wife Xi’er vanished, so he reported it to the government. Officials stated Xi’er was not listed in Nirvana (i.e., karmic base, Shang Dynasty's archival system). Able-calf reasoned: “Perhaps Dragon King hired Xi’er without registering with the government. Then she should be recorded in White-Hairs-Woman Mountain, Zhejiang.” The government official checked the Nirvana and replied, “White-Hairs-Woman Mountain in Zhejiang isn't in the Karmic Base either. Perhaps the White-Hairs-Woman Mountain you mentioned is just a local name used by several villages. But never mind, we believe your account. We'll establish a missing persons file for Xi’er and search for her. However, nothing concerning Xi’er will be recorded in your family's Karmic Base.”

4. 逃离琼洲 Escape from Qiong Continent

孺子牛过世了。尘香和尘凡偷偷地求助于那位曾经救过他们俩的渔民朋友。那位渔民帮他俩渡过了琼州海峡。

琼州看守政治犯的官员很快就发现尘香和尘凡逃跑了，派兵追赶，并且向首都武汉做了汇报。尘香和尘凡遭遇到了官兵的追捕后改变了路线，走乡间的小路，一路乞讨偷盗，去武汉寻找舅爷二郎神。他们知道虽然二郎神不喜欢他们俩，但能保证他俩的安全。

Able-calf passed away. Dust-scent and Dust-mortal secretly sought help from the fisherman friend who had once saved them both. The fisherman helped them cross the Qiong Continent Strait.

Officials guarding political prisoners in Qiong Continent soon discovered Dust-scent and Dust-mortal had escaped, dispatched troops in pursuit, and reported the affair to the capital, Wuhan. After encountering the pursuing soldiers, Dust-scent and Dust-mortal altered their route, taking roads through the countryside. They begged and stole their way to Wuhan, seeking out their uncle, Second Wolf God. They knew that although Second Wolf God disliked them, he could ensure their safety.

5. 寻找大禹 Searching for Big Yu

结果让这哥俩失望了，二郎神已经过世了。尘香和尘凡又根据政治犯小学课本上说的，开始找大禹叔叔（如图3.5-2）。

他们怎么不找她们的妈妈，舜皇（如图3.5-1，3）？这时，他们俩都已经是青少年了，知道自己是私生子。

在很长的时间里，他们所询问的人都不知道谁是大禹。苍天不负有心人，尘香和尘凡终于遇到了明白人，告诉他们：大禹被舜帝软禁在了XXX一年半了。经过他多次向舜帝请求，最近他被释放出来了，常常化名为法师，在武汉的各地演讲。最近的一次演讲，法师（即大禹）将在YYY出现。

To their dismay, Second Wolf God had passed away. Dust-scent and Dust-mortal started to look for Uncle Big Yu (see fig. 3.5-2), according to the political prisoners' elementary school textbooks.

Why didn't they look for their mom, White-king Shun (see figs. 3.5-1, 3)? By this time, they were both teenagers and knew they were illegitimate.

For a long time, no one they asked knew who Big Yu was. Turquoise Sky was kind to them, Dust-scent and Dust-mortal finally met someone who understood and told them: Big Yu had been under house arrest by White-king Shun for a year and a half in XXX. After his repeated pleas to White-king Shun, he was recently released and often goes under the name of Juristic Teacher, giving speeches all over Wuhan. For his latest speech, Juristic Teacher (i.e., Big Yu) will appear at YYY.
