No one buys it, so he begins to shout in order to canvass the customer. He says that this idol can bring in wealth and good luck. One man says to the seller, "Hello, My friend, if this is so, you should have the advantages that the idol can bring, why do you want to sell it?" The seller says, "What I want is that I can get cash in at once. The profit from the idol is so slow." This story means: God will never respect people who make a profit by hook or crook. 有人 雕刻 了一个赫尔墨斯的木像，拿到市场上去卖。因为没有一个买主上前购买，他便大声叫喊，想招揽生意。 他说有赐福招财的神出售。这时旁边有一个人对他说道：“喂，朋友，既然这样，你自己应该享受他的好处哇，为什么还要卖掉他呢?”他回答说：“我要的是现在马上可以兑现的利益，这个神的利益却来得很慢哪。” 这故事正是说那种不择手段地求利，连神也不尊敬的人。 初中经典英语故事：功亏一篑 Once a man planned to build a terrace.

And this year was Chen Cheng's turn. Learning this, Monkey King consoled***安慰*** the Chens, and promised them that he and Pig would act as the boy and girl to wait for the spirit in the temple. At midnight, the spirit came to the temple to reach for the girl. Pig, the pretended girl, in a hurryswirled his rake***耙*** at the spirit. The spirit fled into the river. The next morning, Tang Priest and his disciples woke up and found the 800-kilometer-wide river frozen. San Zang urged his disciples to cross the river over the ice. When they reached the middle of the river, the ice cracked and the river swallowed Tang Priest who was then captured by the spirit. The three disciples ran after the spirit who knew he was no match for them and did not e out. Monkey King had to seek help from Guanyin ***a Bodhis-attva***. It turned out that the spirit was a big goldfish in the South Sea lotus pond. The fish escaped from the Buddha to hurt people. So the Buddha was asked to retrieve***取回*** the fish spirit. Later, the four were worrying about how to cross the river. Suddenly, there came an old turtle, who said, "I used to live in the river. Now that you have chased away the spirit, I am back. Let me help you get across the river."

The Tang Priest heard the boy's cries and asked Monkey to release him. Monkey, seeing that the boy was actually a demon in disguise***伪装*** , told his master not to bother. Sanzang got angry, and he asked Pig to bring the boy down from the tree. He ordered Monkey to carry he boy on his back. As they started to go, Red Boy jumped into mid-air, leaving behind a false Red Boy for Monkey to carry. To kidnap Sanzang, Red Boy hurled a whirl of wind at him. Sanzang disappeared.

Gradually they began to feel hotter and hotter in the warm air. It was very strange, because it was autumn. Later they learnt that the Fiery Mountains were just ahead of them. The mountains had a circumference of 800 li, on which not a blade of grass could grow. A young man selling cakes told them that it was not possible to cross the mountains without a special plantain***芭蕉*** fan which could only be borrowed from Princess Iron Fan. After having made arrangements for his master, Monkey left for the Plantain Cave to see Princess Iron Fan. The princess was the wife of the Bull Demon King and the Red Boy's mother. Some time ago, Red Boy had tried to eat the Tang Priest and Monkey had subdued***使服从，压制*** him. Hence Princess Iron Fan hated Monkey and refused to lend the fan to him. Instead she blew Monkey right out of sight with a single wave of her plantain fan. Bodhisattva Lingji heard about this and gave Monkey a Wind-Fixing Pill. Monkey came to borrow the magic fan for the second time. With the Wind-Fixing Pill in his mouth, Monkey could not be moved no matter how hard the princess waved the fan. The princess hurried back to the cave and had the doors closed tightly. However, Monkey turned himself into an insect and got into the princess' belly when she was drinking tea. The princess could not stand the pain, so that she agreed to lend the fan to Monkey, but she actually gave him a false one. The third time Monkey came for the fan hedecided to turn himself into the Bull Demon King. He got the fan. Upon hearing of this trickery, the Bull Demon King came hurriedly chasing after Monkey. They engaged in a fierce struggle. Soon Pig and Friar Sand came to Monkey's help and forced the Bull Demon King to show his true colors. With the plantain fan, Monkey put out the fire. The master and his three disciples continued their journey to the West to fetch scriptures.
